Abused Female Lead And Beautiful Villainess (Quick Transmigration)

“Yes, I had cleaning duty today, so I’m leaving a bit late,” Shen Wan replied to Ji Meng’s greeting, instantly realizing that Ji Meng had misheard her “you’re so cute” as “hello, Meng.”

She was in Class 2 of the first year, while Ji Meng was in Class 1. Their classrooms were right next to each other. Ji Meng was the school’s goddess, the cutest goddess, and everyone knew her.

“What about you? Why are you leaving so late?”

“Doing homework.”

Ji Meng turned her head, her porcelain doll-like face facing Shen Wan. Her beautiful grape-like eyes blinked gently, her long curled eyelashes fluttering like fans, both beautiful and adorable.

Shen Wan thought: Even her eyelashes constantly exude an aura of cuteness. How can there be such an adorable young lady in this world?

“You still haven’t said why you were looking at me.” Ji Meng seemed very concerned about this question, her lips slightly pursed, her beautiful eyes fixed on Shen Wan. Faced with this visage, Shen Wan felt dizzy, her thinking ability gone. She unconsciously said, “Because you’re so cute, so pretty, so beautiful.”

The sincere gaze, the completely unconcealed praise, and the loud voice—Ji Meng had never heard such straightforward compliments before, nor had she been stared at so boldly.

If it were a shy little girl, she might have been embarrassed by Shen Wan’s direct praise and would probably have been modest.

But Ji Meng was different. She took out a small mirror, which was also pink. She adjusted her hairstyle in the mirror and checked if there was any dirt on her face, completely ignoring Shen Wan’s expectant gaze.

She stared at herself in the mirror for five minutes, seeming entranced. Finally, putting the small mirror back in her schoolbag, she flashed an angelic smile and said words that were far from angelic, “You have good taste.”

Shen Wan thought: I’ve always had good taste.

188 thought: I have a feeling that this time, the host won’t just be a looks-obsessed dog, but also a fawning dog. Is this what it means to fawn for a lifetime and have it all?

“Where do you live? I’ll give you a ride.”

Ji Meng was in an excellent mood. She loved hearing people call her pretty, cute, beautiful, and adorable. It sounded pleasant and comfortable. She had just observed herself in the mirror and felt she looked even better than yesterday.

“Then I won’t refuse. Ji Meng, you’re truly a beautiful, kind-hearted classmate,” Shen Wan said, giving a thumbs up and rattling off compliments as if they cost nothing.

Ji Meng’s mood improved even more. “Come on, let’s get in the car.”

Ji Meng’s driver and bodyguard were surprised to see their young miss bringing over a shabbily dressed girl. How could such an unattractive, shabby-looking girl, almost like a beggar, be allowed into their young miss’s car?

When they heard Ji Meng wanted to give Shen Wan a ride home, their expressions froze in shock.

Was this real?

It must be, as Shen Wan had already gotten into the car and was sitting next to their young miss. Ji Meng’s lips were curved upwards, her eyes smiling, seeming to be in an exceptionally good mood. When Ji Meng asked Shen Wan where she lived, Shen Wan eagerly gave her address, even specifying which community, which floor, and the apartment number.

Bodyguard: This eagerness, isn’t it too obvious?

Driver: Is our young miss’s judgment off today?

“Um, handsome driver uncle, you can drop me off at the entrance of the market,” Shen Wan called out as they approached the market she usually visited.

Shen Wan’s mother worked very hard, and to lighten her burden, Shen Wan would get off the bus near the market every day after school. She would buy groceries, go home to cook, keep the food warm in the pot, and then do her homework. By the time she finished her homework, her mother would be back from work, and the two would have dinner together. Overall, it was a poor but warm family.

“Why are you going to the market?” Ji Meng asked.

Shen Wan: “To buy groceries and cook dinner.”

“You have to cook?” Ji Meng’s voice was soft and cute. She asked this simply out of curiosity, without any hint of discrimination.

The soft, sweet voice made Shen Wan’s whole being boil with excitement. Goodness, how could there be such a beautiful, cute, and adorable young lady in this world? That porcelain doll-like little face really made her want to pinch it, and those full pink lips were incredibly pretty. Even her lustrous black hair strands grew so adorably. And that exposed wrist was truly beautiful! Those long, slightly plump fingers were also pink, with pink nail beds.

“You’re staring at me again?”

Ji Meng didn’t seem angry at all. In fact, she rather enjoyed having someone look at her so intently with such a dazed expression. Although this girl was dressed like a little beggar, she was fair-skinned, and those eyes on her pretty little face were very cute, perfectly matching Ji Meng’s aesthetic tastes and pleasing to look at. Of course, most importantly, the things she said were very nice to hear.

“Because you’re too beautiful.”

As she said this, Shen Wan seemed to see an angelic smile again.

“I’ve always been this beautiful.” Ji Meng was not at all modest about her beauty. She took out her small mirror again and looked at herself, slightly raising her chin. “Compared to earlier, I think I’ve become even prettier.”

“Not just a little prettier, you’ve become several times more beautiful and cute!” Shen Wan quickly chimed in, not feeling at all like she was exaggerating.

This was just the truth! She was an honest good student who never lied.

Driver: This flattery is really too direct.

Bodyguard: It’s like watching a major car crash.

But their young miss seemed to be quite pleased.

Ji Meng did indeed raise her head, her beautiful watery eyes looking at Shen Wan, seeing that the other’s gaze was still clear and sincere. That pink little mouth was also much prettier than before. She turned her gaze back to the small mirror, looked for two minutes, and then revealed a sweet smile. “It seems so. I hadn’t noticed that I’ve become several times more beautiful than before. It’s a good thing you noticed.”

188 thought: Is this what they call mutual flattery in business?

Ten minutes later, under Shen Wan’s praise, Ji Meng happily put the small mirror back into her schoolbag. Shen Wan glimpsed that apart from this small mirror, Ji Meng’s bag was filled with books and stationery. Looking at those books wrapped in cute book covers, the cuteness of the patterns was only slightly less than Ji Meng herself. Even the books and stationery were so adorable.

“You still haven’t told me why you need to cook,” Ji Meng asked after admiring her own beauty.

Shen Wan answered honestly, “Because my mom works very hard, and as a cute girl, I want to help her with some housework.”

Ji Meng caught Shen Wan’s self-praise and glanced at her indifferently. Well, she was quite cute, although not quite as cute as herself, but still not bad.

“Is the market far from your home?”

“Not far.”

Although she really wanted to say it was far, if this lie were exposed, she would surely become very uncute in Ji Meng’s eyes. She had heard that this Ji Meng liked cute, pretty, and beautiful people and things. She rejected anything and anyone who wasn’t cute, good-looking, or beautiful.

Shen Wan was in a good mood.

Shen Wan: “188, I must be a cute person in Little Meng’s eyes.”

[188: “Wan Wan, keep dreaming. You even dare to try and win over such a cute girl. But I think in her heart, you still can’t compare to herself.”]

“One day it will happen. Want to bet? One thousand space coins, how about it?”

[188 quickly surrendered: “No bet, no bet. Everything you say is correct. One day, Little Meng will definitely think you’re the cutest, prettiest, most adorable, and most beautiful. After all, beauty is in the eye of the beholder, even a sow can look like Xi Shi to a lover.”]

He really wanted to curse. In the last world, the host had muttered several times about sending him back to headquarters to debug viruses.

But what was the result? After the mission ended, she received high scores and a hefty bonus. She consulted the company about the process of debugging the system, and the company told her that before completing a series of tasks, system maintenance and repair must be paid for out of pocket. When she heard that debugging once would cost three thousand space coins, she promptly stated that she was just asking, her system wasn’t infected and didn’t need debugging, and politely said goodbye to the company staff.

Then she said to him, “188, three thousand space coins is a bit expensive. It’s not worth it at all, pure system exploitation. Let’s wait until we finish this series of tasks. You’ll have a chance for free maintenance then. Hang in there a bit longer. Viruses aren’t really a big deal, it’s just occasionally telling me a couple of colorful stories or saying a few risqué sentences, right? I’m an adult now, it doesn’t really have much impact on me. Let’s make do with it, after all, the other programs are working fine.”

188 felt wronged. He suspected the host he was bound to was a fake.

Outside the market, the driver stopped the car. Shen Wan waved goodbye to Ji Meng, freely spouting a barrage of compliments about her beauty and kind heart before entering the market.

“Miss, this classmate’s thinking is problematic,” the bodyguard couldn’t help but say. “Her flattery is too obvious. Miss, there are many such female classmates at school, you should be careful. Most of them approach you wanting to get something from you.”

“That’s right, Miss.”

After Shen Wan got out of the car, Ji Meng took out her small mirror and kept looking at herself, feeling that she had indeed become several times more beautiful than before. She heard what the driver and bodyguard said, but didn’t bother to look up.

“Don’t you think her words sound particularly nice?” Ji Meng’s soft voice rang out. “Even if it’s flattery, she does it better than others. I like hearing it. Others only say things like ‘Ji Meng, you’re so amazing, so pretty, so beautiful,’ and mostly compliment my various possessions. They always surround me, asking where I bought these things. Isn’t that a stupid question? Aren’t all my things custom-made by designers my father hired? Asking such questions just shows they’re either dumb or speak without thinking.”

The bodyguard and driver listened somewhat helplessly. Then what was different about this one today? Just as they were puzzled, Ji Meng’s voice came again.

“This Classmate Shen Wan is different. Her voice is pleasant to hear, and her words satisfy me. Those cute little eyes, full of sincerity—I was sitting right next to her, watching her compliment me, and couldn’t find a single flaw. This proves she was sincerely praising my beauty.” Ji Meng touched her flawless little face, saying with satisfaction, “And she’s very observant, actually noticing that I’ve become several times more beautiful than before.”

Driver: Is this what makes Shen Wan different?

Bodyguard: Speechless.

“Also…”

Hearing Ji Meng about to say more, the two perked up.

“All her attention was on my beauty. Her compliments were only about how good-looking I am, praising me as a person. No one has ever focused solely on praising me as a person before. None of my other attributes stole my spotlight. This shows she’s truly a focused person, seeing only me, which is why she noticed I’ve become several times more beautiful than before.”

They didn’t understand how these two things were causally related.

Perhaps their young miss’s brain worked differently from theirs. A girl who only cared about beauty, with everything else being incidental, was indeed very different from them.

“She’s different from those little sycophants at school.”

Oh, they understood now. This difference was because Shen Wan only complimented their young miss, rather than like others who focused more on the young miss’s luxury items. So pleasing their young miss was this simple. That female classmate really was different.

While Shen Wan went to the market to buy groceries and cook dinner, Chai Mu and the other two were sitting in a private room. They were currently discussing how to get acquainted with Shen Wan. Given their status, they certainly couldn’t just approach her directly and say they wanted to be friends.

Such an entrance would lack class and be too ordinary, unable to leave a deep impression. Therefore, they needed to think of a very special way to make their entrance, to make her remember them deeply. Then they could subtly reveal their interest in her, and finally, it would be time for her to choose.

Based on everything they had seen today, they figured she probably wouldn’t need them to play the hero and save the damsel in distress, as she seemed capable of dealing with the small-time thugs outside the school on her own. So they decided to observe a bit, stroll around outside her classroom tomorrow to become familiar faces, and perhaps find an opportunity.

The next day, Shen Wan got off the bus at the school gate and happened to run into Ji Meng.

188: He was absolutely certain this was no coincidence, as Ji Meng’s arrival time at school had only a minute or two of variance. Today, his host had arrived a bit earlier than usual.

This encounter was clearly artificially created.

“Ji Meng, good morning!”

Ji Meng was surprised to see Shen Wan in the morning. Her pleasant voice reached Shen Wan’s ears, “Good morning.”

“Oh?” Shen Wan let out a surprised sound, catching Ji Meng’s attention.

“What is it?”

Shen Wan walked closer to Ji Meng, carefully examining her face while cupping her own chin. “Ji Meng, you seem even more beautiful than yesterday.”

188: Facepalm!

“Really?” Ji Meng instinctively took out her small mirror. Due to the rushed morning, she only looked for about a minute before putting it away and saying, “It does seem I’m prettier than yesterday. You have good eyes.”

“Let’s walk together. Our classrooms are next to each other,” Shen Wan invited, and Ji Meng naturally didn’t refuse. Shen Wan continued, “My eyes have a special ability.”

Ji Meng’s attention was caught again. “What ability?”

“They can spot the most beautiful person at a glance.”

Ji Meng thought: Indeed, someone with good taste.
