Are you stupid? I am the villain behind the scenes

Ever since Ji Xingyuan's parents handed Ji Xingyuan over to Ji Xianchen, Ji Xingyuan not only had to attend cultural classes at school, but also had to train in martial arts privately twice a week, with Dongli as his martial arts teacher.

After being trained like this for three years, Ji Xingyuan can now fight against a dozen people at a time with ease, although he can't defeat anyone in the world.

However, this achievement was achieved at the cost of countless beatings.

During those three years, the bruises on his body never went away. As soon as one bruise disappeared, a new one would immediately appear. In a word, it was very miserable.

This tragic situation continued until last year. After he entered the third year of high school, Ji Xianchen cancelled his martial arts training because of the heavy academic pressure in the third year of high school, so that he could concentrate on his studies. Therefore, he had not been beaten for almost a year. Now, Ji Xianchen's words instantly dragged him back to the painful experience of the past.

Ji Xingyuan took a deep breath, then knelt on the sofa and apologized quickly: "Brother, I was wrong. I shouldn't have said that you are not my biological brother. Please be magnanimous and forgive me. I don't want to take martial arts lessons..."

Ji Xianchen didn't say whether he forgave him or not, but said, "Get up." What does it look like to kneel down?

Ji Xingyuan quickly stood up from the sofa on his knees.

He never let Ji Xianchen say something a second time.

"Then my game..." Ji Xingyuan tried to fight for it again.

"Ok?"

Ji Xingyuan shut up.

It was impossible to ask for a game console on his own, so Ji Xingyuan placed his hopes on Hua Chaochao. He winked at Hua Chaochao: Sister Chaochao, it's your turn!

Hua Chaochao received Ji Xingyuan's eye signal and responded to him with a wink: OK, no problem, leave it to me.

"Brother Ji, I think Xingyuan's request is quite reasonable. You didn't see that Xingyuan has been studying very hard recently. You can reward him by letting him play the video game console for a while to relax properly. Then he will be more motivated to study, right?" Hua Chaochao analyzed the benefits of letting Ji Xingyuan play the video game console. "Brother Ji, what do you think?"

Ji Xianchen was impartial and said, "I don't think so..."

Hua Chaochao interrupted him, "Brother Ji, why don't you think about it carefully before you speak?"

Ji Xianchen: “…”

Is this threatening him?

Ji Xianchen looked at Hua Xi who had not said a word from beginning to end: Your sister, you don’t care?

When Ji Xianchen looked at her, Hua Xi slowly turned her head to the side. Her whole body was showing this message: It’s none of my business.

Although Hua Xi was neutral, her heart actually leaned towards Hua Chaochao. She felt that what Hua Chaochao said made sense, and there was no harm in having some entertainment and relaxation. Another point was...

Can she control Hua Chaochao just because she wants to?

An angel on the outside but a devil at heart, this is Hua Chaochao.

Hua Xi is very self-aware. She cannot interfere with Hua Chaochao's behavior at all. She is thankful that she doesn't cause trouble for her.

Ji Xianchen looked at the back of Hua Xi’s head that refused to communicate: “…”

Well, if it’s just to let Ji Xingyuan play the video game console, then let him play.

Ji Xianchen had to admit that Hua Chaochao had succeeded and he was indeed threatened.

This was the first time he had compromised in twenty-two years.

"Okay, let him play for one day and come back tomorrow." Ji Xianchen opened the cabinet next to him, took out the game console and threw it into Ji Xingyuan's arms.

Ji Xingyuan lowered his head and stared at the game console he had been longing for for more than two months in his arms with wide eyes, his expression full of disbelief.

Is this it?

Just two sentences to convince his difficult brother?

For a moment, Ji Xingyuan felt that he was at a disadvantage. If he had known that Hua Chaochao's words were so useful, he should have asked her to help persuade Ji Xianchen a month in advance.

What a huge loss.

……

eight pm.

As Yi Mu came out of the bathroom after taking a shower, he heard the phone on the bed ringing.

He wiped his wet hair with a towel, walked slowly to the bed, reached out to pick up the phone and answered the call.

As soon as I answered the phone, I heard a rather impatient voice: "Where have you been? Why are you answering the phone just now?!"

From the voice I could tell it was a man, otherwise I would have thought it was some girlfriend checking up on him.

Yi Mu put the phone on speakerphone and threw it back on the bed. He wiped his hair and said, "Are you awake?"

There was silence for a moment. "Come on, big brother, do you want to know what time it is? Do you think I'm a pig? I sleep for more than ten hours."

Yi Mu glanced at the clock on the wall. It was eleven o'clock.

Yes, normal people rarely sleep for thirteen hours at a time.

"Is there something?" Yi Mu couldn't understand why Xiao Hei called him so late at night.

"Is there anything wrong? Someone on the Internet revealed that Gu Turen is now in Country H, but I don't know if it's true or not, so I wanted to ask you if you want to send someone over to check, just in case the news is true?"

Yi Mu stopped wiping his head when he heard that. He picked up the phone again and put it back to his ear, then asked calmly, "Who leaked it?"

"I'm not sure about that. I checked that person's account, but it has been cancelled and I can't find any information about him." Xiao Hei replied.

Xiao Hei, who had been staying up all night to look up information, went to bed at ten in the morning and did not wake up until eight in the evening.

When I woke up, my stomach growled like crazy.

Counting the time, he hadn't eaten for nearly twenty hours, so it was normal for his stomach to protest.

So he ordered a takeout, and while waiting for the food, he was bored and went online to see if there was any gossip to kill time.

As I was scrolling, I saw a post by a person with the username 'A tough life needs no explanation':

[Brothers, do you know who I saw today? It was Gu Tu! That's right, don't doubt it, it was the Gu Tu you thought of, I actually saw him in Caijia City in H Country! I was eating in a restaurant at the time, and suddenly someone came in. I looked closely and found that it was Gu Tu, the former S-level mercenary who had escaped from a desperate situation and lived outside for more than ten years. He seemed to be here for dinner as well. I didn't dare to look at him for too long, for fear that he would find out that I recognized him and would kill me. I'm just reminding everyone here, brothers who have grudges against him can take action, I have no grudge against him, and I can't beat him, so I won't join in the fun.]

Below this passage, a bunch of people were asking questions out of curiosity, such as which restaurant in Caijia City it was, what was Gu Tu's current level as a martial artist, and so on.

However, the person who posted this message never appeared again to say a word to answer everyone's questions, as if he had disappeared in the online world.

His silence made people wonder, was he discovered by Gu Tu and killed? Or was he just silent because of fear?

Of the two situations, most people prefer the first one because they click on that person's homepage and find it blank and also see a prompt that the account has been cancelled.

Hidden network accounts are so valuable that no one would cancel their account for no reason. It must be that something big happened to the owner of the account, forcing him to choose to cancel the account.

What is likely to happen is that Gu Tu discovered him, and he may have been killed by Gu Tu.

Gu Tu is a man without any kindness in his heart. He will kill without mercy anyone who gets in his way.
