Chapter 128: Scumbag! Disgusting!

After seeing Ye Chen’s behavior, Ye Xiao immediately had her cousin turn on the video recording.

She directly recorded the scene of Ye Chen trying to hit on her precious Yunchu.

This damn guy showing up at the movie theater twice in one day was already suspicious enough. And now he dares to hit on my Yun Chu? Totally shameless.

What’s more, he didn’t even bring Xiao Lingyu with him. Isn’t that just textbook scumbag behavior?

Even though the girls he sweet-talks might be blinded by love and trust him unconditionally, a little video like this could be the perfect spark to drive a wedge between him and his close connections.

At that moment—

Ye Xiao walked over and suddenly kicked Ye Chen’s calf. She wasn’t that strong, but a sudden kick could still throw someone off balance and embarrass them in public.

But Ye Chen’s reflexes weren’t slow. The moment he sensed Ye Xiao’s kick, he dodged out of the way.

Seeing Ye Xiao appear, Shen Yunchu let out a sigh of relief.

Except for those rare times in school when she had inexplicable courage standing up for Ye Xiao, her personality was generally quite gentle.

She didn’t like being hit on like this, but when it really happened, she didn’t know how to say no. Ye Xiao’s appearance was a huge help.

“The lady already turned you down. Stop pestering her, you creepy old fish! Let me show you what a real pickup line looks like!”

After saying that, Ye Xiao did a “kabedon” to Shen Yunchu—slamming her hand against the wall beside her.

“Hey beautiful, you’re so gorgeous. Why don’t we go somewhere private and get to know each other better, hmm?” Ye Xiao said with a mischievous grin on her face.

Ye Chen gave Ye Xiao a slightly disdainful look.

But then he looked closer—wasn’t this the little loli from earlier this morning who rejected his approach?

And yet, why did her gaze toward other girls look so pervy?

Her pickup technique was so greasy. If it weren’t for her cute face that made people lower their guard, she’d definitely be mistaken for some creepy stalker.

Honestly, her skill level was maybe a tenth of his own. What a joke—trying to show off in front of him?

“Sure!”

To Ye Chen’s shock, the stunning beauty actually smiled and nodded.

Then she even shyly took the delinquent girl’s arm and walked away with her.

“What the hell? How did that just happen? Do high-score beauties prefer the wild type? Should I be more direct?”

“That doesn’t make sense!”

Ye Chen was totally baffled. But then a realization hit him: Ye Xiao must’ve succeeded because of that lady’s orientation.

That girl definitely didn’t like men—that’s why she rejected him. That had to be it.

Normally, when he flirted with girls, his exceptional looks, refined pickup skills, and the “Child of Destiny” aura that boosted strangers’ favorability made failure a rare occurrence.

Soon after, another beauty came walking over.

Thinking back to Ye Xiao’s expression when hitting on Shen Yunchu, Ye Chen’s handsome face twisted into something lewd.

“Hey beautiful, you’re really pretty. How about we find a quiet place to get to know each other better, hmm?”

He repeated Ye Xiao’s line to this new girl.

“Slap!”

The girl slapped him across the face.

“Ugh! Pervert!”

The slap left Ye Chen dazed.

He was never rejected like this—what was going on today?

But quickly, as the so-called Child of Destiny, he came to his senses.

He realized he had fallen into a flawed line of thinking—it was obvious now!

“That pickup line was garbage. You guys clearly knew each other already!”

Right then, Ye Chen felt like he’d swallowed a mouthful of crap—utterly miserable and now slapped for no reason.

He felt he’d been acting too impulsively since running into Ye Xiao.

If he had just thought more carefully, it would’ve been obvious that only someone who already knew her would respond to a line like that.

In the distance, a beautiful 9-out-of-10 girl was walking toward him and happened to witness the slap.

“Ye Chen gege! Are you okay? You woman! How could you just hit someone like that? Apologize to Ye Chen gege right now!”

The girl Ye Chen had been waiting for finally arrived—her name was Du Yueyue.

“Pfft! Apologize? Dream on. I’m posting this shrimp-head scumbag to Xiaohongshu and exposing him!”

The beauty had been filming a VLOG and had captured Ye Chen’s greasy behavior before he even started the pickup.

“What did you record?”

Du Yueyue rushed up and snatched the phone away forcefully. But when she saw the footage, she stared at Ye Chen in disbelief.

“Ye Chen, I can’t believe how disgusting you are. Pervert!”

“Slap!”

This time, she slapped the other side of his face.

Without even listening to his explanation, she turned around and left.

Now both sides of Ye Chen’s face were evenly red.

But Ye Chen was mentally broken.

What did he do to deserve this?

Just a second ago, she was calling him gege, and now she slaps him?

Ye Chen was furious.

Thinking back on everything that happened today, it was all thanks to Ye Xiao.

His gaze toward the cinema turned cold and resentful.

With handprints burning on both cheeks and no way to hide them, he put on a mask to cover the damage.

He had already bought tickets—there was no way he was wasting them.

Soon, relying on his elite flirting skills, he managed to steal another guy’s date.

Though the girl was only a 7.9 out of 10—not even close to Du Yueyue or Shen Yunchu—she was better than nothing.

Ye Chen wasn’t picky. He even liked the thrill of stealing someone else’s girl right in front of them.

Of course, none of this had anything to do with Ye Xiao.

Holding Shen Yunchu’s soft, delicate hand, Ye Xiao went up the escalator.

She had heard the crisp sound of that slap earlier and felt immensely satisfied inside.

Even the Child of Destiny had days like this!

Ye Xiao and Shen Yun Chu arrived at the fifth-floor cinema.

She ordered two hot fruit teas—Yunchu couldn’t have cold drinks these past few days—and bought a giant tub of popcorn.

After collecting their tickets, they walked into Screening Room 8.

The movie began quickly.

Ye Xiao was glad she’d already seen an animated film earlier with her sister Yunxi. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have wanted to sit through the same film again.

“Wolf War 3” wasn’t really her thing.

If it were up to her, she’d pick something that could move a girl emotionally, one that let them snuggle up together in the theater.

Sure, the movie wasn’t bad, but Ye Xiao kept holding Yunchu’s hand, gently drawing little circles on her palm, or sometimes leaning in to breathe warmly by her ear.

Or occasionally peeking at her phone—because deepening her bond with Yunchu was her real goal. The movie was just an excuse.

Two hours later, the film finally ended.
