Who Made Him an Antagonist

450: Chapter 450: Not Letting Go, But the Pregnancy is Showing (Part 2)”Ding! A massive rift has appeared in the relationship between Heavens Mandate Daughter Ye Qingyi and Son of Destiny Fang Yu. Mandate is returning; Heavens Mandate Daughter Ye Qingyi’s Comprehension Ability is continuously strengthening.”

”Favored by Mandate, rewarding the Host with +10,000 constitution points!”

”Ding! Heavens Mandate Daughter Ye Qingyi has turned against Son of Destiny Fang Yu, rewarding the Host with +50,000 constitution points!”

As the rewards arrived,

Qin Ge, lying on his recliner, couldn’t help but start puffing out clouds of smoke.

Comfortable!

Just as he had expected.

Indeed, the correct way to use the Son of Destiny Fang Yu was to trigger Ye Qingyi’s Mandate return.

The more of a Prodigy Ye Qingyi became, the more appalling the feedback from the Mandate’s favor was for him.

In the blink of an eye, another sixty thousand constitution points had arrived.

That was a full sixty thousand points of constitution!

Adding these sixty thousand points, his current base constitution points had already reached just over two hundred and seventy thousand.

Under the combat power stack of the Divine Ability ”Desperate Struggle” and the two titles ’suit slaughterer’ and ’alien executioner’...

His constitution combat power had already exceeded two million points.

What did that mean!?

Even without using the God-Forbidden Land, an existence like the King of the Barbarian Tribe Shi Yuan was no longer his match!

”President Qin, Young Miss Ye’s reaction certainly hasn’t made your exhaustive cultivation of her during this time go to waste.”

In the office, Qiao Yingzi watched the real-time surveillance video in front of her, then turned her head and whispered softly.

During this period, she had seen very clearly how Qin Ge gave Ye Qingyi whatever she wanted.

Whether it was resources Ye Qingyi needed for her Cultivation or resources she didn’t.

As long as Qin Ge could get his hands on them, he would try every means and do his utmost to provide them.

Even the core of a God Realm.

He provided it without reservation for Ye Qingyi to comprehend the Dao rhythm within.

In Qiao Yingzi’s view, it was only natural for Ye Qingyi to turn against Fang Yu for Qin Ge’s sake.

If Ye Qingyi were still making excuses for Fang Yu at this point, that would be ingratitude in the truest sense.

”It’s just...” Qiao Yingzi’s tone shifted as she looked at Dantai Qingyue in the surveillance video, whose beautiful face was as cold as freezing pond water, and said with lingering fear, ”President Qin, was it a bit too risky for us to rashly let Fang Yu contact Dantai Qingyue?”

In Qiao Yingzi’s impression, Dantai Qingyue was still that ethereal Beautiful Master of the Bright Moon Sect who didn’t eat the food of common mortals.

She was a mortal enemy with an irreconcilable grudge against Qin Ge.

Even if they were currently in the same camp facing a common enemy,

if Fang Yu’s instigation caused Dantai Qingyue to feel disgust toward Qin Ge,

causing the relationship to fall apart, the consequences would be unimaginable!

???

Qin Ge tilted his head, sizing up the worried Qiao Yingzi, and asked puzzledly, ”You don’t know about the matters in the Capital?”

Fang Yu’s movements were monitored by people arranged by Qiao Yingzi.

Even the nearby hidden surveillance was installed by people Qiao Yingzi ordered.

Yet, Qiao Yingzi didn’t know about his current relationship with Dantai Qingyue!?

He hadn’t thought about hiding this matter from anyone!

Qiao Yingzi shook her head, ”Previously, I was only responsible for reporting some of your more absurd actions, President Qin, to the Old Master.”

”After you gave me the Medicinal Pill to improve my constitution, I never proactively reported to the Old Master again, and he didn’t ask any further questions.”

”As for news from the Capital, those are secrets beyond my reach.”

Qin Ge shook his head, ”I know what I’m doing.”

He gave a casual glance at the surveillance video, then looked sideways at Qiao Yingzi, who had been dressing more and more glamorously in front of him lately, and beckoned her over.

Qin Ge swept his gaze over Qiao Yingzi’s beautiful legs, which were wrapped in black stockings and appeared increasingly straight and slender.

His gaze moved upward, traversing the peaks and valleys, landing on Qiao Yingzi’s face, which was exquisite yet possessed a touch of heroic spirit, and he asked curiously, ”You’ve been dressing up more and more diligently lately.”

”What is it? A woman dolls herself up for the one she likes—do you have someone you’re interested in?”

Qiao Yingzi’s cheeks flushed slightly as she nodded, then quickly shook her head, ”No... I don’t.”

Qin Ge rolled his eyes in annoyance, ”Nodding one moment and shaking your head the next—do you or don’t you?”

He hadn’t made a move on Qiao Yingzi before because he felt she was a rare and valuable confidante.

For many things, if he didn’t hand them to Qiao Yingzi to handle, he wouldn’t feel at ease giving them to anyone else.

But if, for this reason, Qiao Yingzi had found a lover while out on business,

Qin Ge felt an indescribable discomfort in his heart.

It was like he’d swallowed a green-headed fly.

Qiao Yingzi was by his side at all times.

During that past period, it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say they were inseparable.

He hadn’t taken advantage of Qiao Yingzi.

But Qiao Yingzi had seen everything about him, both openly and secretly.

To ask Qin Ge to accept the image of Qiao Yingzi being a couple with another man?

That was impossible!

Qin Ge also knew in his heart that his fondness for Qiao Yingzi was secondary to his liking of her.

Overbearing possessiveness and selfishness were the primary factors.

But he was a Great Villain; what was wrong with being a bit overbearing and selfish?

Who could stand on the moral high ground and point fingers at him?

Having lived two lives, was he really supposed to be a Great Villain who chose to step back and let Qiao Yingzi pursue her own happiness,

only to disgust himself whenever he thought of it?

If he was Reborn and still willing to be a cuckold,

then wouldn’t his Rebirth have been for nothing!?

Qin Ge’s fingers tapped the desk rhythmically, creating a dull sound. He sized up Qiao Yingzi and asked with a hint of curiosity, ”Is it someone from the bodyguard team, or a man you met outside?”

This time, Qiao Yingzi shook her head with absolute certainty, ”Neither.”

Qiao Yingzi pressed her moist lips together and looked up slightly at Qin Ge, saying nothing.

Catching Qiao Yingzi’s gaze, the suspicion in Qin Ge’s heart jumped from fifty percent to eighty percent.

He had thought that Qiao Yingzi, having grown used to seeing him dally with women, might not be able to develop romantic feelings for him from the bottom of her heart.

But now, Qiao Yingzi’s reaction and Qin Ge’s own observations undoubtedly provided proof.

Qin Ge feigned ignorance and teased, ”You really do know me well enough.”

”Knowing that once you reveal that person’s identity, they will suffer my retaliation!”

”Is this you deliberately hiding it for him?”

Qiao Yingzi looked up, her beautiful eyes filled with surprise, ”President Qin, why would you retaliate against the person I favor?”

She subconsciously swallowed hard, her heart tightening.

Her heart fluttered with both nervousness and a secret joy.

Could it be.

That just like her, President Qin also had feelings for her?

But how could that be?

Qiao Yingzi unconsciously clenched her small fists.

Spending so much time by Qin Ge’s side, she had witnessed his strength and unparalleled self-confidence.

Previously, some acquaintances had wanted to introduce her to potential partners.

After all, she was no longer seventeen or eighteen.

She was already twenty-five, nearly thirty in the eyes of traditional counting. She was approaching thirty fast.

Reason told her she could try to reach out, but in reality, she could never take that step.

She would always unconsciously compare others to Qin Ge.

And then, there was no ’then’.

In fact, Qiao Yingzi knew in her heart.

She knew it was impossible for Qin Ge to have any excessive favor toward her.

After all, whether it was Yunhai City’s number one beauty Jiang Yingxue or the ethereal Dantai Qingyue who looked like she’d stepped out of a painting...

In terms of both looks and strength,

she, Qiao Yingzi, was not considered top-tier among the girls Qin Ge knew; she was just one of the crowd.

What right did she have to receive President Qin’s favor?

But today, Qin Ge’s words had given her hope.

”President Qin, why would you want to retaliate against the man I’ve taken a liking to?”

Qiao Yingzi’s eyes were burning as she stared at Qin Ge, her beautiful eyes full of expectation.

Qin Ge’s fingers tapped the desk rhythmically, a smile on his lips. He glanced at Qiao Yingzi playfully and teased, ”You’ve been by my side for so long; you know what you should know, and you know what you shouldn’t.”

”When your heart is invested in someone else, it means a rift has formed between us. How could I allow my secrets to fall into the hands of another!?”

Heh!

The corners of Qiao Yingzi’s pretty mouth lifted slightly in self-mockery.

Indeed!

What kind of figure was President Qin?

He was surrounded by top-tier, stunning beauties, an endless array of them.

To think she actually felt that President Qin had taken a liking to her and was unwilling to let her belong to another.

After all that, it was just her own wishful thinking.

Phew—

Qiao Yingzi exhaled a breath of air, feeling wronged. She looked up at Qin Ge and said with heartache yet certainty, ”President Qin, rest assured, I, Qiao Yingzi, could never betray you!”

”If you feel that my being close to another man will bring you disadvantage,”

”I, Qiao Yingzi, hereby guarantee that in this life, it is impossible for me to have any romantic feelings for anyone else!”

She felt sorrow in her heart, yet also felt fortunate.

Perhaps this was the only way she could continue to stay by President Qin’s side!

Although that absurd idea couldn’t come true,

at least as long as she was willing, she could accompany President Qin at all times.

”President Qin, it seems Dantai Qingyue has no intention of driving Fang Yu away!”

Suddenly, Qiao Yingzi noticed in the real-time surveillance that Dantai Qingyue had interrupted Ye Qingyi’s scolding.

She immediately regained her composure and reminded Qin Ge seriously.

Mm!

Before Qiao Yingzi could react, a large hand suddenly pulled her, causing her to stumble.

”Pre... President Qin, what... what are you doing!?”

Qiao Yingzi fell into Qin Ge’s arms in a fluster, her heart racing. Looking at Qin Ge’s wicked smile, even her speech became stuttered.

”That’s not important.”

Qin Ge’s arm was wrapped around Qiao Yingzi’s slender yet resilient waist.

Unlike Cultivators like Bai Jing who came into contact with Ability Users right away, Qiao Yingzi had built a solid foundation and only achieved her current success through continuous Body Refining.

Compared to the soft-as-water skin of Bai Jing and the other women, Qiao Yingzi’s skin was more resilient.

It was like the difference between a large piece of cotton candy and a bag of compressed marshmallows.

Consequently, Qiao Yingzi’s beautiful legs appeared even more slender, yet didn’t feel bony at all.

Qin Ge flicked the black stockings Qiao Yingzi was wearing and remarked with wonder, ”These stockings are quite high quality, aren’t they?”

”Where did you buy them? I’ll get some wholesale for Xiao Jin and the others too.”

While inspecting them, Qin Ge ’accidentally’ tore Qiao Yingzi’s stockings just right.

Qin Ge glanced at the lounge, looked at Qiao Yingzi, and said softly, ”Let’s change into a new pair, shall we?”

Qiao Yingzi bit her lip, too shy to look at Qin Ge, and murmured like she was talking in her sleep, ”President Qin, how about you help me pick out a suitable pair?”

As Qin Ge followed Qiao Yingzi into the lounge, Qiao Yingzi suddenly turned around and tightly hugged Qin Ge’s powerful waist, leaning against his ear and blowing a puff of hot air, ”President Qin, I am your confidante; there should be no more gaps between us.”

”Today...”

”...”

”Ah—!”

Amidst the high-pitched cry,

Fang Yu clutched his swollen cheek and looked at Ye Qingyi with a face full of fury, saying angrily, ”Ye Qingyi, I came here to find the Fairy. What does it have to do with you!?”

Ye Qingyi gritted her teeth in anger and said, ”I don’t want to see you. Get out!”

”Enough.”

Dantai Qingyue proactively raised her hand, interrupting Ye Qingyi’s continued threats.

”Master Qingyue, this fellow has a prior grudge against Young Master Qin. You absolutely must not listen to his one-sided story!”

Ye Qingyi spoke up nervously, her eyes showing worry.

Dantai Qingyue shook her head slightly and looked at Ye Qingyi, saying, ”It’s fine. I will make my own judgment on what is right and wrong.”

She looked at Fang Yu with a cold face and spoke calmly, ”If you have something to say, then say it.”

Fang Yu clenched his iron fists.

He was extremely furious in his heart.

He glanced at Ye Qingyi, whose beautiful eyes were full of anger.

He sneered inwardly.

Ye Qingyi actually had killing intent toward him for the sake of Qin Ge!?

Then he would insist on pushing Qin Ge into the bottomless abyss.

Even if they died together,

taking Qin Ge down with him would still be a pleasure!

”Fairy, is that Qiao Beibei your Disciple?”

Fang Yu looked toward Dantai Qingyue and asked with a burning gaze.

Dantai Qingyue nodded without any hesitation, ”She is my Disciple.”

Fang Yu continued, ”Does the Fairy know that in Yunhai City, there is a playboy named Qin Ge?”

”Previously, this Ye Qingyi was living at that Qin Ge’s residence.”

Dantai Qingyue continued to nod, ”I know.”

Creak!

Fang Yu clenched his iron fists, the fury in his heart like a volcano about to erupt.

Hot and intense.

Just as he was prepared to reveal the truth to Dantai Qingyue—that Qiao Beibei was involved with Qin Ge and that he was also entangled with Ye Qingyi and the other women...

Suddenly, Dantai Qingyue lightly raised her hand, furrowed her brows, and covered her mouth and nose.

”Fairy, what’s wrong?”

Fang Yu hurriedly stepped forward and asked with concern.

Once he revealed the entire cause and effect of the matter, Dantai Qingyue would surely purge her sect.

At that time, even if Qiao Beibei didn’t die, she would no longer be able to gain Dantai Qingyue’s favor.

Then his opportunity would come.

If he performed well now, perhaps Dantai Qingyue would remember his contribution and let him take Qiao Beibei’s place.

Perhaps, being in a favored position,

he might even have a chance to win over this ethereal Fairy Dantai Qingyue!

”It’s nothing.” Dantai Qingyue raised her hand slightly, interrupting Fang Yu’s fantasy, and said indifferently, ”Continue.”

”Fairy, do you know that Qiao Beibei has already been... by Qin...”

Just as Fang Yu’s emotions were peaking and he was about to pour out his grievances,

Dantai Qingyue furrowed her brows again and reached out to cover her upper abdomen.

”Fairy, you... what’s wrong?”

Fang Yu, with a face full of concern, wanted to step forward again, his eyes filled with an indescribable nervousness.

Dantai Qingyue shook her head indifferently, ”The baby kicked me.”

”Ba... baby?”

Hearing these words, Fang Yu felt like he’d been struck by lightning.

His brain was buzzing.

This ethereal Fairy in front of him, who didn’t eat the food of common mortals, was... pregnant!?

He subconsciously asked, ”Whose baby?”

Dantai Qingyue didn’t hide it and spoke bluntly, ”Qin Ge’s.”
