After Becoming a Spare Tire, I Was Targeted by the Villain and the Male Lead at the Same Time

Sitting next to them, Xu Chenghao slowly raised his head, his eyes filled with shock.

 

Li Nian had an expression on his face that seemed to say, “What are you looking at? I’m doing this for you!” He mouthed, “A raise!!!”

 

Xu Chenghao gave a thumbs-up and nodded happily.
What was a raise? With his brotherly loyalty, his year-end bonus would be doubled!

 

An Ruoyu on the other end of the phone was furious, “You finally admit it! You shameless man! You’re after Hao gege, and his sudden coldness towards me must be because of you! You’re taking advantage of the situation, you shameless person!”

 

Li Nian chuckled, “Even if I’m shameless, I’m not as shameless as Miss An, who’s engaged but still dating, and not only broke up with someone but also keeps dragging her ex-fiancé down!”

 

An Ruoyu couldn’t possibly compare with the ace executive assistant in terms of eloquence.
She was blocked and unable to say a word, so she finally hung up the phone in tears.
She decided to tell Hao gege in person just how despicable Li Nian really was!

 

When An Ruoyu hung up the phone, the world became quiet instantly.
In relief, Li Nian threw his phone on the table, then suddenly pounced on Xu Chenghao and grabbed his neck, shouting, “If I can’t find a wife in the future, you’re dead!”

 

Xu Chenghao laughed uncontrollably while being pressed against the back of the chair, “Hahaha Li Nian, you’re so talented! Hahaha, how could I have such a talented friend! Raise, raise!”

 

Li Nian: “Even if I get a raise, it won’t make up for my reputation.
If I can’t get married because of this, I’ll go down with you!”

 

Xu Chenghao laughed until he couldn’t speak: “Hahaha.”

 

The two of them became a mess.
In the end, Xu Chenghao couldn’t hold on any longer and surrendered with a smile; “I will clarify things for you, and I will definitely have a lover in the future.
Once I have a lover, our relationship will naturally be clarified.
Don’t worry.”

Li Nian hesitated and looked at him.
“When will you have a partner?”

Xu Chenghao thought about the time it takes to grow peppers and exaggerated, “Within the next five years, let’s not consider it.”

Li Nian: “…”

“I’m going to strangle you!!!”

“Hahaha.”

Xu Chenghao was almost laughing himself to death.
He knew the original owner had a very close relationship with Li Nian.
But he didn’t expect that he would really stick up for his friend like that, showing such loyalty.

He was both touched and unable to control his laughter, silently marking this incident as the second source of happiness in his heart.

 

After this incident, the dull work seemed to be injected with soul, and the whole day was very happy – after all, both sources of happiness were right in front of him.
Whenever he looked at one or the other, he couldn’t help but want to laugh, and his white teeth were exposed all day long.

 

But soon, he became both happy and sad – An Rouyu was actually waiting to confront him in the underground garage.

 

Xu Chenghao’s steps abruptly halted, automatically turning back and leaving.
He decided to leave through the front entrance and let Li Nian come to pick him up.
If he couldn’t afford to provoke her, he could avoid her!

 

After Xu Chenghao left, Jing Yicheng walked out of the corner and looked in the direction he left, then turned to the woman waiting in the underground garage.

 

He remembered the playfulness between Xu Chenghao and Li Nian during work and his silent vow to “block the peach blossoms” for his good friend.

 

He had to block the peach blossoms for his good friend…and he could do it even better than Li Nian!

 

With that in mind, Jing Yicheng’s gaze suddenly became firm.
He walked out of the dark corner and went straight to An Rouyu.
“Miss An, long time no see.”

 

An Rouyu subconsciously attributed his appearance there to herself based on his previous behavior and asked, “Why would CEO Jing be here?”

 

Jing Yicheng responded with a question, “I also want to know why you’re here.”

 

An Rouyu immediately believed he had come for her, but she couldn’t understand his thought process.
After all, he had spoken harshly to her and treated her coldly before.
What did it all mean?

 

Pretending to be indifferent, An Rouyu said, “It seems like my presence here has nothing to do with CEO Jing.”

 

Jing Yicheng smirked, “Oh, I’m not very interested in knowing either.”

 

An Rouyu was immediately choked with anger and looked at him with annoyance.
She didn’t want to know why he was asking!

 

Jing Yicheng looked back at her lightly, and the coldness in his black eyes scared An Rouyu into looking away immediately.

 

Jing Yicheng: “If you’re waiting for Xu Chenghao, don’t bother.
He’s already gone.”

 

An Rouyu was surprised, “How is that possible? His car is still here!”

 

Jing Yicheng looked in the direction of the car: “He left with Li Nian, believe it or not.”

 

An Rouyu hesitated momentarily, then suddenly gritted her teeth and said, “Li Nian, that jerk!”

 

She didn’t expect the other party to be so ruthless, completely cutting off all her chances of contacting Xu Chenghao.
No wonder he dared to talk to her like that.
He was too sinister!

 

Jing Yicheng looked at her coldly, and the dangerous look in his eyes made An Rouyu shiver.
She quickly said, “Since Hao gege isn’t here, I’ll leave.
Goodbye!”

 

After speaking, An Rouyu immediately turned and left.
Her pace was very fast as if she was afraid the other person wouldn’t let her go or would try to capture her.

 

Fortunately, there was no movement behind her, and she safely left the underground parking lot.

 

As An Rouyu left the place by taxi, she felt like she had survived a disaster.
While she breathed a sigh of relief, she thought of Li Nian and immediately took out her phone to send a message of more than a hundred words to Xu Chenghao, hoping that he would see the true colors of the person beside him.

 

…

 

When Xu Chenghao received the message, he and Li Nian were stuck in traffic on an elevated highway, so he read the message aloud with great emotion and shared it with Li Nian.

 

“…Li Nian is not as harmless as he appears.
He’s deliberately trying to sow discord between us! He even called me shameless, but he’s the most shameless one…”

 

Sitting in the driver’s seat, Li Nian was very speechless and said, “Are you cursing me while reading the message?”

 

Xu Chenghao laughed, “How could that be… You’re so good to me, how could I bear to do that?”

 

Li Nian sneered, “Don’t try to butter me up.
You’re taking up my after-work time now.
If you don’t treat me to a big meal, I’ll take you off the overpass, do you believe it?”

 

“Let’s eat, whatever you want.” Xu Chenghao casually deleted the message, looked at the slowly moving traffic, and suggested, “Why wait for another day when we can seize the day? Let’s go eat what you want now.”

 

Li Nian: “Sure.”

 

After the two of them had agreed, Xu Chenghao was about to call the aunty to let her know she didn’t need to cook when he heard his phone beep again with another message.

 

Jing Yicheng: “I helped you block the peach blossoms.”

 

Xu Chenghao looked at the message for a while before finally realizing what it meant.
He sighed helplessly and replied, “Thank you, but you really don’t need to learn from Li Nian.”

 

Jing Yicheng: “I’m not learning from him.
I’m just doing things to make you happy.”

 

Xu Chenghao: “……”

 

Why was there so much ambiguity in that statement?!

 

Xu Chenghao decided to ignore it and left the chat page to call his aunt and let her know he didn’t need dinner that night.
After that, he happily enjoyed dinner with Li Nian.

 

As for the message from the female lead… who cares?

 

Xu Chenghao’s lack of reply undoubtedly intensified An Rouyu’s anger.
She thought it was Li Nian’s doing again and cursed him in her heart, getting so angry that she was about to go crazy.

 

She had almost forgotten why she was looking for Xu Chenghao, and all her attention was stolen by Li Nian.
She almost wanted to rush to Xu Chenghao and tell him how despicable this man was.

 

But just as An Rouyu was about to go find him, perhaps because she got up too quickly, her head suddenly felt dizzy, and as if she was lacking oxygen, she fell back onto the sofa.

 

What’s going on… She never had low blood sugar… How could she faint…

 

An Rouyu suddenly became a little panicked when she regained her senses.
She was worried that something had happened to her body and immediately took a taxi to the hospital for a check-up.

 

Half an hour later.

 

An Rouyu held the freshly printed body examination report and was completely stunned – she was pregnant.

 

No wonder she had been inexplicably irritable lately, even to the point of losing control of her emotions.
It turned out to be because of this… It turned out to be because of this…

 

An Rouyu was both happy and regretful.
She regretted not taking care of herself these past few days, which caused her body to deteriorate, and she didn’t know if the baby had suffered.

 

By the way, she wanted to tell Chenxuan about this! He would surely be thrilled! This was a fresh start for their relationship, and they could put the past behind them and continue to live happily!

 

Fantasizing about a beautiful future, An Rouyu hurried to Jin Yu with her report, very excited to share her joy with Chenxuan.
However, she was disappointed to find out that he had gone to work.

 

Perhaps he was too busy because he hadn’t gone to work for a few days, so he was working overtime.
An Rouyu comforted herself and went to Ruan Group, only to bump into Ruan Chenxuan coming out of the company with a woman.

 

The woman was a popular star, Zhuo Meixue, whose TV dramas An Rouyu had liked very much.
But now, seeing her standing in the position that belonged to her, holding hands with Ruan Chenxuan, and getting into the car, An Rouyu was stunned.

 

She didn’t even know what to do for a moment; she could only watch them drive away; her throat felt like it was clogged with cotton, unable to utter a single syllable.

 

Ruan Chenxuan…no wonder he suddenly became cold to her…no wonder he got angry with her…no wonder…no wonder…

 

The author has something to say: Yes, the original plot is a classic with a lot of twists and turns! A few years later, the genius son balbabala…

Anyway, in the next chapter, the female lead will temporarily be off the stage! Let’s give her a round of applause together!
