After Transmigrating as the Villain’s Cannon Fodder Fake Sister - Chapter 12

Gu Ruanruan simply wanted to cry but had no tears.

Jiang Cen had clearly already mistaken these things for her masterpiece. How was she supposed to make Jiang Cen believe these really were just song lyrics!

How could she possibly possess such outstanding literary talent!

These… these songs were all her beloved favorites. Every time she sang them, it was definitely like: one call receiving a hundred responses, mountains roaring and seas surging, earth collapsing and mountains crumbling, gongs and drums clamoring, firecrackers all going off, red flags waving, and seas of people everywhere… (Note)

When sung out loud, there was obviously nothing awkward about them. But when read word by word, why did the shame feel like a black dahlia blooming in the wind, constantly swaying and swaying inside her mind…

Where exactly had the problem appeared! Why did it change flavor once it came out of Jiang Cen’s mouth!!!

Jiang Cen’s gaze made Gu Ruanruan feel so ashamed she had nowhere to hide.

She gazed at Jiang Cen’s eyes, which looked as if they were about to kill her and silence her forever. Under immense pressure, she weakly said, “Sis… Sister, these are only… only lyrics…”

Jiang Cen’s tone was cool. “Oh? Then sing them for me now.”

“No~ matter~ how~ I~ fly~ I can’t~ fly~ out, this co~lorful…”

No, she couldn’t. She really couldn’t. After Jiang Cen had read those lyrics once, she could no longer look at them directly.

Right now, she had already forgo✧tten love. She had no feeling at all!

She truly could not sing a single line anymore. Even the tune had run off to the Atlantic Ocean and merged with the Atlantic seawater.

Gu Ruanruan looked like a severely constipated patient who had not gone for ten days, her face full of pain.

Of course, she absolutely could not tell Jiang Cen the truth that she could not sing them.

Her eyes darted around, and she said with deep grief, “Sister, it’s not that I won’t sing for you. It’s that I cannot bear to watch you fall so low!!!”

Jiang Cen: ?

Gu Ruanruan gave a deep “ai.” “In my heart, you are as unreachable as a white lotus. How can you be tainted by vulgar mortal music! I feel heartache on behalf of your ears! Can your ears be ordinary ears?”

She changed her expression and became serious. “As your dearest younger sister, I firmly support Sister’s pure and noble soul. I will not allow anything to defile you!”

Jiang Cen lifted her eyelids. “Very good. It seems that in your eyes, I’m not human.”

“Sister, you have to believe in yourself. How could ordinary humans be worthy of being compared to you!”

Ordinary humans did not have the hobby of reading lyrics aloud!

Gu Ruanruan was firm. “Whoever dares act recklessly in front of you and attempts to pollute you is my enemy!”

The girl raised her little face and threw down those words decisively and forcefully, then looked at Jiang Cen with a face full of loyal devotion.

Her appearance was obedient and pretty, but her lively eyes betrayed her true thoughts.

Thanks to her good looks, even though Jiang Cen knew Gu Ruanruan was spouting nonsense, she still felt that her expression at this moment was rather cute.

The corner of Jiang Cen’s lips lifted slightly.

She thought that if Gu Ruanruan could keep being like this, stay properly and obediently in the Jiang family, then she would not mind there being one more person in the Jiang family. Keeping Gu Ruanruan like this forever was nothing more than a simple matter for her.

Of course, if this thought had been placed half a month ago, it would have been completely impossible for it to appear.

Gu Ruanruan seemed to have become a different person. Her change was both earth-shaking and silent, merging bit by bit into daily life, as if nothing that happened to her seemed out of place.

No one could clearly explain how things had naturally become like this.

Jiang Cen picked up Gu Ruanruan’s lyric sheet. Her jade-white fingers lightly tapped the thin paper as she said thoughtfully, “Since they’re lyrics, then if you wrote them down, you must have been moved by something. If you can’t sing them, explain the meaning of these lyrics to me.”

Gu Ruanruan: ???

Jiang Cen sat leisurely in her seat, legs crossed. The crystal chandelier above shone on her face, making her look solemn and dignified, like an old Buddha empress…

“First, tell me. What do the lyrics about not being able to fly out of the colorful world mean?”

With disaster looming, Gu Ruanruan had a sudden flash of inspiration. “These two lines are my confession! I realized that everything I did in the past was completely wrong! I had lost myself in the colorful world!”

Jiang Cen scoffed softly. “Then for whom did you turn into a werewolf?”

Gu Ruanruan was inspired. “Of course it was for you! My dear sister!”

She looked at Jiang Cen “affectionately.” “The me from before was a black-hearted, crazy werewolf who trampled all over Sister’s painstaking efforts!”

Gu Ruanruan took the chance to secretly smuggle in a self-whitewashing speech. “Sister, the current me is a brand-new me! A me free from vulgar interests! My sinful claws will absolutely never again touch your noble and majestic body!”

“I’m sorry, Sister! Don’t worry. I absolutely won’t act recklessly in front of you again! I have already forgotten love!”

Jiang Cen: “……”

She rubbed her forehead. “Oh. Then who do you want to meet again after bitterly praying for thousands of years?”

She was not worried about the other questions, but if Gu Ruanruan was having an early romance, then this issue still had to be taken seriously.

In the past, Jiang Cen had never taken those little childish affairs to heart, but after all, Gu Ruanruan was about to be recognized as a true member of the Jiang family. Having an early romance at this critical juncture was rather sensitive.

Gu Ruanruan looked at Jiang Cen shyly and bashfully.

Jiang Cen immediately had a not-so-good premonition.

Then she heard the girl say sweetly, “That must be you, Sister! So that I can see you again in my next life and the life after that, I have already bitterly begged before Buddha for hundreds and thousands of years! I really hope I can still have such a good sister in my next life, wuwuwuwuwu.”

Absolutely not!!!

Goodbye, never meet again! She did not even want to meet her again in this life. Once she preserved her little life, she would roll away like a ball!

Blushing, Gu Ruanruan added, “As long as I can see Sister again, I have no other wishes.”

Jiang Cen was speechless.

After a moment of silence, she said, “You should keep this blessing for yourself.”

Jiang Cen was worthy of being the villain boss. In just a few minutes, she returned to normal.

She calmly nodded and analyzed, “Since you’ve already recognized your mistakes, very good. Then I can rest assured.”

Gu Ruanruan: ?

“I’ve decided that starting today, all your allowance will be stopped.” So she would not buy more messy gifts.

What kind of decision was this! Had everything she just said been for nothing!

“Why! Is! Thaaaat!” Gu Ruanruan was so grief-stricken she could not control herself and questioned her in a Taiwanese accent.

Jiang Cen raised her brows, and a sense of pressure followed. “Do you have an objection?”

Gu Ruanruan protested unhappily, “Sister, you’re being really annoying, okay!”

“But I already apologized, la, wuwuwuwuwu… How can you treat such a weak and helpless me like this, la!”

Jiang Cen sneered. “If apologies worked, what would we need the police for?”

Why are you so skilled at this!!!

Gu Ruanruan clutched her heart, her face full of resentment. “Sister, look around our room. Isn’t there a balloon that has leaked air?”

Jiang Cen: “No.”

“You can’t see it! It’s overdrawing its own life bit by bit! Just like me right now, so heartbroken I can’t breathe! Cruelly ignored by you!”

Jiang Cen—cold, heartless, cruel, inhuman, numb, and cold-blooded—was not moved at all.

She said indifferently, “If your math score improves in the next exam, I’ll consider restoring a little of it as appropriate.”

A little? Only a little? Gu Ruanruan seemed to see countless snacks waving goodbye to her.

Jiang Cen smiled as she looked at Gu Ruanruan. “Do you still have any objections?”

Gu Ruanruan was bold enough to court death and muttered quietly, “…Yes.”

Jiang Cen seemed to remember something. “Oh, right. Your explanation of the lyrics just now was very good. I’m very satisfied.”

Wh-what are you doing!

Gu Ruanruan looked at Jiang Cen warily.

“Later, write down everything you just said and paste it on your bedroom wall. Recite it once every day.”

Gu Ruanruan: !!!

There was no way to stay in this house anymore!

“Do you still have objections now?”

Gu Ruanruan: “……No.”

A whole series of fierce operations, and by the end of the day, everything was gone.

Gu Ruanruan was tired.

She would never speak to Jiang Cen again! If she spoke to Jiang Cen again, she would be a puppy!

The next day, she went to school after breakfast as usual.

Although the Jiang family was the richest family, they were usually rather low-key and simple. They did not have the exaggerated, floating airs of other wealthy families and only had one driver.

The usual arrangement was that Jiang Cen drove herself to the company, while the driver was responsible for picking up and dropping off Gu Ruanruan.

Gu Ruanruan had just opened the door to the back seat when she saw Jiang Cen sitting there leisurely, occupying her seat.

Three question marks appeared above her head.

Jiang Cen saw her confusion and pulled out a “kind” faint smile.

“Didn’t you say that as long as you could see me, you had no other wishes? I’m here to fulfill your wish.”

Gu Ruanruan: “……”
