Villain: Manipulating the Heroines into hating the Protagonist

The sun rose on a new day, painting the sky with hues of pink and orange as Wang Jian and Shui Xueying met up once again in the bustling streets of the settlement. They made their way to a clothing shop that Wang Jian had carefully selected, eager to spend another delightful day together.

Inside the shop, Wang Jian eagerly picked out a selection of stunning outfits for Shui Xueying to try on. With each new garment, Shui Xueying's eyes sparkled with excitement as she imagined herself wearing them.

"This one is simply exquisite," Shui Xueying exclaimed, holding up a flowing gown made of shimmering silk.

Wang Jian grinned in approval, his eyes alight with admiration. "It suits you perfectly," he remarked, his gaze lingering on her radiant smile.

As Shui Xueying disappeared into the dressing room to try on the dress, Wang Jian couldn't help but feel a sense of anticipation building within him. He eagerly awaited her emergence, eager to see her adorned in the gown he had chosen for her.

Minutes later, Shui Xueying stepped out of the dressing room, the gown clinging to her every curve and accentuating her graceful figure. Wang Jian's breath caught in his throat as he took in her beauty, his heart swelling with pride.

"You look absolutely stunning," Wang Jian whispered, his voice filled with awe.

Shui Xueying blushed at his words, a shy smile playing on her lips. "Thank you, Jian," she murmured, her cheeks tinged with a rosy hue.

Encouraged by her reaction, Wang Jian urged her to try on more dresses, each one more breathtaking than the last. With each new outfit, Shui Xueying's confidence seemed to grow, her laughter filling the shop with its melodious sound.

After trying on several outfits, Shui Xueying finally settled on a few favorites. With their selections made, Wang Jian settled the bill, his heart fluttering with excitement at the thought of spending the rest of the day with Shui Xueying.

As they made their way to a nearby restaurant to grab a bite to eat, they were unaware of the storm brewing just outside.

The heirs of the noble families, their egos bruised and their pride wounded from the events of the previous day, had gathered outside the restaurant, their faces twisted with anger and resentment.

"There he is," one of the heirs growled, his eyes narrowing as he caught sight of Wang Jian through the window of the restaurant. "Let's teach him a lesson he won't forget."

With grim determination, the heirs stormed into the restaurant, their eyes fixed on Wang Jian and Shui Xueying.

But Wang Jian was ready for them. With a swift motion, he unleashed a flurry of smoke talismans, filling the air with thick clouds of smoke. Using the cover of the smoke, he grabbed Shui Xueying's hand and darted out of the restaurant, his heart pounding with adrenaline.

As they fled through the crowded streets, Wang Jian couldn't help but feel a sense of exhilaration coursing through him. He knew they had narrowly escaped a potentially dangerous situation, but he also felt a rush of excitement at the thrill of the chase.

Shui Xueying's hand tightened around his as they raced through the streets, her laughter ringing out like music in his ears. For a brief moment, all their worries and troubles faded away, replaced by the simple joy of being together.

The day soon ended as the two returned to their respective residences.

As the sun rose on another day in the settlement of the Nangong Family, the air buzzed with anticipation as more noble heirs and esteemed members of ancient families arrived for the upcoming Ascending Dragon Tournament. Wang Jian, ever the opportunist, saw this as the perfect chance to mingle with some of the other participants.

Today, instead of meeting up with Shui Xueying, Wang Jian set his sights on Lin Xingya, a captivating beauty from the esteemed Ancient Lin Family. With a sly smile playing on his lips, he made his way through the bustling streets, his confidence unwavering.

Meanwhile, Lin Xingya, her beauty the subject of many admirers' fantasies, greeted the day with a sense of excitement tinged with apprehension. She knew that with the tournament drawing near, the competition would be fierce, and she was determined to prove herself on the battlefield.

As she made her way through the settlement, her gaze fell upon Wang Jian, and her heart skipped a beat. There was something about him that drew her in, something she couldn't quite put her finger on. Without a second thought, she hurried towards him, her steps quickening with each passing moment.

"Wang Jian!" Lin Xingya exclaimed, her voice filled with genuine surprise and delight as she reached him. Without hesitation, she enveloped him in a warm embrace, her heart racing with excitement.Nᴇw chapters are publɪshed on novelenglish.net . (ꜰ)ire.ɴet

Caught off guard by her sudden display of affection, Wang Jian couldn't help but return the embrace, his arms wrapping around her slender frame. He felt a rush of warmth wash over him as he gently patted her back, his heart swelling with affection.

"Lin Xingya, it's wonderful to see you," Wang Jian said, his voice filled with genuine warmth as he looked into her eyes. He couldn't deny the undeniable chemistry between them, a connection that seemed to transcend words.

Lin Xingya smiled up at him, her eyes sparkling with a mixture of joy and curiosity. "I didn't expect to see you here," she admitted, her voice tinged with a hint of wonder.

Meanwhile, Shui Xueying and Zhi Xi, having heard about Wang Jian's presence, decided to seek him out as well. However, when they arrived on the scene and saw Wang Jian embracing Lin Xingya, a pang of jealousy surged through their hearts.

Shui Xueying's brow furrowed in confusion as she watched the intimate exchange between Wang Jian and Lin Xingya. She couldn't deny the twinge of jealousy that gnawed at her heart, wondering if there was more to their relationship than met the eye.

Zhi Xi, too, felt a surge of jealousy bubbling within her as she observed Wang Jian and Lin Xingya's closeness. She had harbored feelings for Wang Jian for some time now, and seeing him with another woman stirred up a mix of emotions within her.

As Wang Jian finally pulled away from Lin Xingya's embrace, he caught sight of Shui Xueying and Zhi Xi approaching. His heart skipped a beat as he realized the impact his actions had caused.

"Xueying, Zhi Xi, what a pleasant surprise," Wang Jian said, his tone casual as he greeted them.

Shui Xueying forced a smile, though her eyes betrayed her inner turmoil. "Wang Jian, it's good to see you," she replied, her voice tinged with a hint of sadness.

Zhi Xi nodded curtly, her gaze icy as she regarded Wang Jian. "Indeed," she replied, her voice colder than usual.

"Shall we find somewhere to sit and catch up?" Wang Jian suggested, his voice light and breezy.

In the cozy ambiance of the cafe, Wang Jian found himself surrounded by three remarkable women: Zhi Xi, Shui Xueying, and Lin Xingya. Each had their own unique charm and background, and Wang Jian couldn't help but feel a sense of excitement at being the center of their attention.

As the conversation flowed, the topic naturally turned to how Wang Jian knew each of them. Zhi Xi recounted the harrowing encounter with the Horned Dragon, expressing her gratitude for Wang Jian's timely intervention. Shui Xueying shared the tale of their mission to eradicate the Dark Cultivators, her voice tinged with admiration for Wang Jian's courage. And Lin Xingya reminisced about their past exploits together, from battling demons to sharing precious moments.

Wang Jian leaned back in his chair, his expression unreadable as he surveyed the three women before him. A sly smile played on his lips, betraying the amusement he felt at the situation unfolding around him. He relished the attention, the adoration of these three remarkable women vying for his affections.

"Ah, the million-credit question," Wang Jian remarked casually, his tone light. "Who among you do I love the most?"

Zhi Xi, Shui Xueying, and Lin Xingya leaned in closer, their eyes shining with anticipation as they awaited his response.

Wang Jian's gaze swept over each of them in turn, his mind racing as he considered his answer. He knew that whatever he said next would have far-reaching consequences, potentially altering the dynamics of their relationships forever.

But before Wang Jian could utter a word, the tranquility of the cafe was shattered by the abrupt entrance of a group of enraged men. Their faces contorted with hatred, they advanced towards Wang Jian with fists clenched and voices raised in anger.

Zhi Xi, Shui Xueying, and Lin Xingya sprang into action, their movements fluid and graceful as they intercepted the group of men with lightning speed. With a flurry of punches and kicks, they swiftly subdued their attackers, their martial prowess on full display for all to see.

The cafe erupted into chaos as the other patrons looked on in shock and awe at the spectacle unfolding before them. Tables were overturned, chairs were sent flying, and the air crackled with tension as the women faced off against their would-be assailants.

Wang Jian watched the scene unfold with a mixture of astonishment and amusement. He had not anticipated such a dramatic turn of events, but he couldn't help but admire the skill and determination of Zhi Xi, Shui Xueying, and Lin Xingya as they defended him with unwavering resolve.

As the dust settled and the last of the attackers were subdued, Wang Jian rose from his seat with a smirk, his eyes twinkling with mischief.

"Well, that certainly wasn't how I expected this conversation to go," he quipped, his voice tinged with amusement.

Zhi Xi, Shui Xueying, and Lin Xingya exchanged glances, their expressions a mixture of satisfaction and exhaustion.

With a renewed sense of purpose, Wang Jian turned to the women beside him, a smile playing on his lips. "Well, shall we continue our conversation?" he suggested, his voice laced with anticipation.

And as they resumed their discussion, Wang Jian couldn't help but feel grateful for the unexpected turn of events. In the company of such remarkable women, he knew that the future held endless possibilities.
