Ah! The Villains I Forced to Turn Evil Can Read My Mind-Chapter 318

A silver-haired handsome man chuckled at the beautiful woman: "Maybe it's her special talent."

The woman nodded in understanding and said to her, "Little girl, my name is Li Lanyu. I’m the Demon Lord from another world. A few years ago, I blew up the System World, then ran into some trouble. I just got resurrected recently and am now cleaning up the mess, seeing if I can help you with anything."

Qiao Chuchu was stunned, struggling to process this: "Demon Lord? What Demon Lord? You blew up the System World?! How did you even do that?"

Li Lanyu shrugged casually: "Just blew it up, no big deal. That thing was causing chaos in my world, harming people. It had to go."

Qiao Chuchu: "..."

[So THAT’S why I couldn’t contact the system two years ago?!]

She snapped, "Do you have any idea how much trouble you caused me?! My entire family died, and I couldn’t even go back!"

Li Lanyu stood up: "That’s exactly why I’m here to fix things for you."

Qiao Chuchu laughed bitterly: "How are you going to fix this?! My brothers are dead! All of them! Can you bring the dead back to life?!"

Li Lanyu didn’t answer. Instead, she raised a finger and pressed it against Qiao Chuchu’s forehead.

In an instant, Qiao Chuchu’s memories were stolen by this woman!

Li Lanyu saw everything—her three lifetimes.

Her first life as an orphan.

Her life as Qiao Chuchu.

And the past two years.

Li Lanyu gasped in amazement: "Your life is so dramatic, I could turn it into a movie and show it to everyone back home!"

The silver-haired man beside her wagged his tail like a dog: "How dramatic?"

Li Lanyu grinned mischievously: "Extremely dramatic!~"

Qiao Chuchu stumbled back, clutching her forehead in fury: "Who the hell are you people?!"

Li Lanyu leaned down and flicked her forehead playfully: "I already told you, I’m not from this world. Now that I’ve seen your memories, I know exactly what you want most."

She winked: "Don’t worry, I take responsibility for my actions. I’ll even get your money back for you."

Qiao Chuchu: "? I—"

Before she could finish, the group vanished right before her eyes.

Qiao Chuchu: "???"

The system had once told her that the universe was filled with parallel worlds, each with different environments.

Were these people cultivators from another world?!

Still in shock, she walked out of the orphanage, her forehead throbbing from the memory theft.

She crouched down, rubbing her temples to ease the pain.

Suddenly, frantic footsteps approached from behind: "Why are there so many orphans coming in all of a sudden?! How are we supposed to handle this?!"

Qiao Chuchu froze. She looked past the busy caretaker and turned toward the entrance.

A bus was parked outside the orphanage.

A familiar boy stepped out—around twelve years old, glancing around in confusion, clearly new to this place.

More familiar faces followed.

Pei Che, Pei Youchuan, Pei Fengnong, Pei Mu, Pei Ci, and Pei Buxian all emerged from the vehicle, examining their limbs and clothes in bewilderment.

Weisheng Wenzhan stepped down next, studying his body: "Am I twelve now?"

Weisheng Yucan jumped out excitedly: "I’m only ten?! Ten!! TEN YEARS OLD!!!"

Weisheng Lin was stunned: "I’m just eleven! I’m actually younger than Pei Yuan by a year!"

Weisheng Biehe and Huai Ling followed.

Huai Ling signed in confusion:

Why am I deaf again? I could hear just fine in the Dead City.

Ying Chen chewed his gum lazily, hands in his pockets: "Is this some new version of the Dead City? Why is there sunlight here? Since when can ghosts sunbathe? Ridiculous."

Lou Tingsi, face dark, held Lou Yuejue’s hand tightly: "You think YOU’RE annoyed?"

Everyone turned to them.

Lou Tingsi looked absolutely livid: "My son and I only have a ten-year age gap now. What kind of messed-up planning is this? They said they were taking us to a new place to live, but they changed our ages too?!"

Lou Yuejue, with his chubby little face, pouted in a childish voice: "Exactly! Now my dad’s basically my brother. This is outrageous! And out of all of us, I died the latest—I was thirty! Now I’m a two-year-old baby. This sucks!"

From the driver’s seat, Li Lanyu laughed: "Well, you could always separate. Let your son reincarnate and start fresh. Otherwise, you’ll have to accept the age gap. So, what’ll it be? Want to split up?"

Lou Yuejue and Lou Tingsi shot her identical glares: "Are you the new manager of the Dead City? Is this how you solve your residents’ problems?"

Li Lanyu grinned: "Nope. The Dead City’s ruler is my subordinate. I’m the sovereign of my own world."

Lou Yuejue: "?"

Lou Tingsi: "?"

Li Lanyu shrugged: "Look, you’re getting a second chance. Don’t complain too much. Either accept the age gap or say goodbye forever. If I made Lou Tingsi too old, he wouldn’t fit in with the rest of you. Not much I can do."

Lou Tingsi’s expression darkened further: "Then why make us so young in the first place? You said we were just moving to a new place!"

Li Lanyu only smiled mysteriously.

The two rolled their eyes in exasperation. freeweɓnovel.cøm

Shi Yu inspected his limbs: "So this is what a normal body feels like. No exhaustion at all."

Pei Buxian muttered lifelessly: "Doesn’t matter where we are. A world without Chuchu is meaningless."

At those words, the lighthearted mood vanished. Everyone’s faces turned grim.

After their deaths, they had all ended up in the Dead City, waiting for their turn to reincarnate.

The Dead City was filled with souls from countless worlds—yet Qiao Chuchu was nowhere to be found.

At least that was a good sign. It meant she was still alive.

Then, a golden-haired woman gathered them together, promising a new place to live.

Hoping Qiao Chuchu might be in another Dead City, they agreed.

But on the way, their ages suddenly regressed.

Honestly, age didn’t matter.

What hurt was not being able to see the one they longed for.

Pei Fengnong’s eyes reddened: "I miss her so much. Every single day, I’ve ached for her. I thought death would end the pain, but it hasn’t."

Pei Che stared blankly at his clean wrists—no scars in sight.

Pei Youchuan murmured, hollow-eyed: "Living in the Dead City, I was terrified of reincarnating and forgetting Qiao Chuchu. But staying there without her… every day was torture."

Pei Mu and Pei Ci remained silent.

Shen Zhuoyan hadn’t spoken a word since Qiao Chuchu’s death, like a wooden puppet, unresponsive to anyone.

Lin Shen and Lin Qing exchanged glances before comforting the group: "At least we’re still together. We’ll see Chuchu again someday. We’ll reunite eventually."

They looked at the Lin siblings and felt somewhat comforted, their gazes shifting to the staff members surrounding them.

Suddenly, a small hand pushed through the crowd of staff: "Make way, make way!"

Qiao Chuchu squeezed through the people, popping her head out as she stared at them in shock.

Their eyes met hers, and their expressions gradually morphed into stunned disbelief.

"Is that... Chuchu?"
