Ah! The Villains I Forced to Turn Evil Can Read My Mind-Chapter 133: Since it is the plot of Lou Tingshi, it means that Lou Tingshi’s time has come
The entire birthday banquet felt tasteless to Qiao Chuchu.
Lou Ting Si was also visibly displeased, his usual fake smile gone, poking at the food on his plate absentmindedly.
The people at the table sensed the low pressure between the two of them, their gazes shifting back and forth between them.
The more Qiao Chuchu thought about it, the angrier she became.
【I didn’t expect that the Long family would make such a big move by replacing the Lou family, the storyline is amazing too. I pulled Lou Yue Jue and Lou Ting Si back into the plot, and the story quickly swapped in a new family for Xia Xuechun.】
【It’s one thing to add a new family, but at least make it an equal force so we can target each other and pull each other down, right? Instead, they’re sacrificing the Lou family to strengthen the Long family, like a small fish being eaten by a bigger one, using dirty tricks to divide the Lou family’s assets. It’s so infuriating!】
She angrily cut into the steak.
【Alright! Since everyone likes to play dirty, let’s all play dirty then. After all, I’ve got enough villains with every trick in the book—can I really be scared of them?!】
【But how can I let Lou Ting Si know there’s a traitor by his side?】
Qiao Chuchu slowly chewed the steak, raising her gaze to look at Lou Ting Si across from her.
Lou Ting Si was cutting his steak with a refined posture, his handsome face like a painting.
Suddenly, he lifted his eyes and met her gaze.
Qiao Chuchu froze.

Lou Ting Si’s eyes were beautiful, almond-shaped, with a warm and gentle smile.
But now, his gaze was sharp and cold, his smile still present, but it didn’t reach his eyes as he nodded and smiled at her.
She quickly averted her eyes, only to collide with Ying Chen’s intrigued look.
Qiao Chuchu: “?”
Ying Chen was resting his chin on one hand, casually playing with his knife, staring at her expressionlessly.
She felt uneasy, lowering her eyes to look at the food, then stealing a glance at Ying Chen.
Ying Chen was still staring at her.
He had the same skin color as Pei Youchuan, a chocolate hue, evidently purposefully darkened.
Ying Chen looked mixed-race, his facial features deep and defined, with a high nose bridge and sharp, thin lips. But most striking were his eyes.
Unlike the men around her, Ying Chen’s eyes slanted upwards, and they were an eerie green.
When she locked eyes with him, there was this strange feeling of him being both harmless and dangerous.
Like an aggressively trained black panther, you couldn’t tell if it was about to show its claws or just gently touch you.
Right now, Ying Chen had one hand under his chin and was playing with the sharp knife in his other hand, eyes fixed firmly on her.
Qiao Chuchu: “......”
【Why is Mr. Ying Chen staring at me so intently?】
The people at the table subtly changed their expressions, casting sidelong glances at Ying Chen.
Ying Chen’s gaze slowly scanned the entire table, then continued to stare at Qiao Chuchu without restraint.
Pei Yuan’s face darkened: “Mr. Ying, is there something on my sister’s face?”
Qiao Chuchu froze and looked at Pei Yuan in surprise.
【Big brother, you understand me! You noticed he’s been staring at me this whole time, right?!】
Ying Chen glanced at Pei Yuan.
Pei Yuan glared at him, like he was staring at an enemy trespassing in his territory.
Ying Chen casually tugged the corner of his mouth and said in French, “I was just thinking about what gift to give this new sister of mine. After all, it’s our first meeting, and as her brother, I should bring a gift. That’s why I took some time to imagine it.”
Pei Yuan’s expression grew colder, and he responded in French, “My sister doesn’t need any gifts. After all, just getting to know each other is already fate. You don’t need to go to any trouble. But if you keep staring at her like that, she might get scared.”
Ying Chen’s eyes darkened as he looked towards Wei Sheng Yu Can and continued speaking in French: “Where did you pick up this little treasure? She seems really popular. I was just looking at her for a moment, and a protector shows up to shield her.”
Wei Sheng Yu Can smiled slightly and replied in French: “Don’t you see what makes her special?”
In other words, could Ying Chen hear Qiao Chuchu’s thoughts?
Ying Chen glanced at Qiao Chuchu: “She’s quite cute.”
Ying Chen’s tone was indifferent, as though he didn’t feel anything else beyond that: “Other than that, nothing else.”
Wei Sheng Yu Can paused, her smile deepening: “Isn’t ‘cute’ already rare enough?”
Ying Chen smiled: “Yes, of course.”
Qiao Chuchu was left confused, her eyes darting to the other people at the table.
【What’s going on here? We’re at the same table, still in China, and instead of speaking in Chinese, they’re speaking French?】
【Am I the only one who doesn’t understand French?】
Everyone at the table continued cutting their steak, glancing at Qiao Chuchu with smirks tugging at their lips.
Yes, she was the only one who couldn’t understand French.
Wei Sheng Wen Zhan, sitting next to Pei Che, whispered, “Doesn’t the Pei family have teachers to teach Qiao Chuchu French?”
Foreign language classes were basic for families like theirs. Lou Yue Jue was probably able to understand several languages by the time he was ten.
Pei Che’s face darkened as he lowered his voice: “When she was young, Qiao Chuchu would cry every time she had a foreign language class. She would cry for the entire lesson and couldn’t memorize a single word. My mother was afraid she’d cry her eyes out, so she stopped her foreign language classes. Instead, she hired a nanny to communicate with her in English at home. So, she only knows English and Chinese, but even her English is half-baked.”
Wei Sheng Wen Zhan: “......”
Wei Sheng Bie He: “......”
Wei Sheng Lin was trying not to laugh: “As the saying goes, when God closes one door, He opens another.”
Wei Sheng Huai Ling disagreed: “Don’t say that, Qiao Chuchu opened a window, she can draw!”
Wei Sheng Wen Zhan thought of the character Qiao Chuchu had drawn who looked exactly like him, and his face darkened.
When dinner was over and everyone was preparing to leave,
Qiao Chuchu hesitated for a moment, then walked towards Lou Ting Si.
The people from the Wei Sheng family kept watching her back.
Wei Sheng Huai Ling wanted to go talk to Qiao Chuchu.
But Pei Che stopped him by pressing his hand on his shoulder: “You heard Qiao Chuchu’s thoughts, right? Next, it’s Lou Ting Si’s turn. We who can hear thoughts agreed in advance that whoever’s storyline it is, they’ll stay with Qiao Chuchu. So it’s Lou Ting Si’s time now, don’t interrupt him.”
Wei Sheng Huai Ling frowned, looking at his older siblings.
Wei Sheng Yu Can smiled in surprise: “I didn’t expect you to be so harmonious. So when it’s our turn in the storyline, you won’t stop us, right?”
Pei Yuan said confidently: “Right, we won’t. We’ll even help behind the scenes.”
“Well then, we of the Wei Sheng family will do the same.” Yu Can patted Wei Sheng Huai Ling’s shoulder and gestured with sign language: "Hang in there, this is Lou Ting Si’s storyline, they agreed that whoever’s storyline it is, they’ll be with Qiao Chuchu. Once she’s done with it, you can talk to her."
Wei Sheng Huai Ling furrowed his brow, typing a message on his phone, and the voice reading it aloud: “Of course I can wait, but Lou Ting Si won’t end up falling for Qiao Chuchu, right?”
Wei Sheng family: “......”
Pei family: “......”
Lin family: “......”
Pei Bu Xian suddenly flared up: “Why would you say something so disgusting! How can I relax now?!”
Pei Youchuan was also upset: “Exactly, why do you always bring up stuff like that? How are we supposed to sleep tonight?!”
Wei Sheng Huai Ling: “???”
So is it my fault?!
