Chapter 35: My Pangu Above!
“In short, I’m not leaving. I have to pay for my mistakes.” Lin Tai’s face was dead serious. He refused to believe he couldn’t stick to the plot just this once.
The more he thought about it, the angrier he got. This batch of female leads was impossible to handle. From start to finish, he, the villainous side character, was the only one diligently following the plot. Meanwhile, these female leads were creatively wrecking it every chance they got.
Who’s the protagonist here?!
He, the villainous side character, was more dedicated than the female leads!
“I, Lin Tai, would rather jump off a cliff or die than leave with you!” Lin Tai plopped down on the cot, genuinely furious. A bunch of female leads slacking off, forcing him, the side character, to carry the mission. What kind of side character has it this rough?!
“Holy crap, he’s serious …” The inmates in the detention center were stunned. Four goddesses personally came to bail him out, and he still refused to leave? They didn’t even need a goddess to ask—they’d bolt the second someone bailed them out!
“Damn it, he’s stealing the show!” A few rich young masters glared at Lin Tai, annoyed. They didn’t believe for a second that he actually wanted to stay. Clearly, he was just showing off in front of the goddesses.
And the worst part? He was pulling it off.
Judging by the goddesses’ expressions, they were genuinely shocked by Lin Tai.
“Gotta hand it to him—Lin Tai’s got game when it comes to women.”
“He’s not as useless as the rumors say. Maybe we should hit him up for tips after we get out?”
“Hell, if I could learn that move, I wouldn’t even need four goddesses. Just bagging the Yan family’s little princess would be a jackpot!”
“Get lost! The Yan princess is no different from a goddess. You’re delusional!”
“Guys, we’re getting off track. Let’s figure out how to buddy up with Lin Tai first.”
Xia Shihan watched Lin Tai quietly, her heart overflowing with tenderness. His steadfast sense of responsibility shone as brightly as ever. Not just Xia Shihan—Xiao Yuxuan, Su Yanfei, and Lu Ziyan felt the same. Over the years, their suitors could’ve lined up to the Pacific Ocean. They’d seen every pickup trick in the book.
Without their past-life memories, they’d probably think Lin Tai was just showing off. But now … their little darling was simply too perfect. The more responsible he was, the more their hearts ached. Taking responsibility was a great trait, but there was no need to do it in a detention center—especially not for a despicable jerk like Ye Bai!
“Let’s do it,” Xia Shihan said, taking a deep breath. Since Lin Tai wouldn’t leave willingly, they’d stick to the original plan.
The four women exchanged glances, silently agreeing, and stepped into the cell, approaching Lin Tai step by step.
“Hey, what are you doing? Stay back, I’ll scream …” Lin Tai’s eyes widened. My Pangu above, what were these female leads up to?
Wait—were they planning to take him out?!
Could it be that bailing him out was just a pretext to get rid of him? It made sense the more he thought about it. He’d beaten up their beloved male lead, Ye Bai, so they were here to take revenge for him!
Since he didn’t fall for their bait, they were just going to take him by force?
The more he thought, the more plausible it seemed! Were these female leads finally acting normal? Should he play along?
Pfft! Of course he should! Lin Tai felt a wave of relief. Though they were still messing up the plot, their character arcs were back on track. It was a small comfort—at least he wasn’t fighting alone!
Should he put up a token struggle later? Nah, they were finally acting normal. If they failed to take him, it’d ruin everything.
The four women split up, each grabbing a limb, and hoisted Lin Tai right off the bed.
“Let’s go!” Despite their slender figures, these goddesses were no weaker than any man. Born into privilege, they’d mastered self-defense techniques. Lifting a 150-pound guy like Lin Tai was a breeze for the four of them.
“…” At that moment, the detention center inmates were gobsmacked.
“My God, they’re straight-up kidnapping him!” Same species, same gender! Aside from being a bit handsome, how was Lin Tai better than them?
Four goddesses! Coming to bail him out was one thing, but now they were outright snatching him!
“This is freaking possible?!” The rich young masters were slack-jawed.
“Bro, I’m on my knees!” They saw a god—a pickup god! Playing the goddesses’ hearts like a fiddle. They wanted to know: how many of those rich kids bragging outside could pull off what Lin Tai did?
Four goddesses outright kidnapping him!
“From today, Lin Tai is my big bro! Little bro pays respects! Teach me your ways!”
“Anyone who dares badmouth my big bro from now on, I’ll end them!”
“This is what? This is a god among men!”
“No wonder my bro lives so freely. If I had half his skills and bagged just one goddess, I could lie in bed counting money.”
The rich young masters had fully become Lin Tai’s fanboys.
