Black Hearted Lotus
When he woke up again, Zhou Yunsheng was standing in front of a canvas, holding a paint-stained brush, with a strong smell of poppy oil. He stood still for a moment before he began to observe the surrounding environment. This was a rather empty room, without any furniture, only four white walls and an open window. Outside the window was a lush green garden, there was a blue lake in the distance.
The scenery was beautiful and fascinating.
Except for Zhou Yunsheng, there was no one in the room. The AI’s screen flashed a lot of text, it was the data stolen from the main god of the owner and the world’s details.
Ning Si Nian was 28 years old this year, but he has been married twice. The last wife died of bone cancer leaving him a three-year-old son named Ning Wangshu. Because of the busy business, he had no time to look after his son so Ning Si selected a gentle, introverted woman in a hasty marriage. Although they had no strong feelings of husband and wife, life was stable.
Wei Xiyan and Ning Si only met when they were younger, then Ning mother threw the huge family business to her son and Wei Xiyan settled abroad long-term. So the feelings between the two were not deep, you could even call them unfamiliar.
The bad days started with his new wife Zhao Xinfang, whose appearance was pure but the inside was a vicious black-hearted lotus. Before marrying Ning Si, she got together with Ning Si Nian’s friend Qian Yu. Qian Yu was Ning’s university classmate, after graduation Ning Nian hired him as a personal assistant.
Most personal assistants were trusted by the boss. Being relied on was a kind of discipline, so when Qian Yu reaches Ning’s expectations, he would naturally arrange a more suitable position for him.
But Qian Yu obviously couldn’t wait. Born in poverty, he had a strong hostility towards the rich and a more morbid sense of self-esteem. In his view, being driven like a nanny was an insult by Ning Si Nian. He began to hate Ning Si Nian, on one side he sold company secrets to rival companies, on the other side he seduced Zhao Xinfang to help with his wicked plan.
But Ning was the male protagonist in this world, he is not so easy to deal with. The two were almost successful when the female protagonist appeared. She not only won Ning Si Nian’s love, she also exposed the conspiracy of the two. In the series of dangerous and romantic clashes, Wei Xiyan was just a negligible cannon fodder.
One day, he went out to buy paint and accidentally met Zhao Xinfang and Qian Yu coming out of a hotel. The two feared he would tell the matter to Ning Si Nian and make him suspicious, so they set up a plot for him to be expelled from Ning home.
After repeated abuse, Ning Wangshu started showing autistic symptoms too- he would no longer cry or laugh. Ning Si Nian naturally despised Wei Xi. Not only was he kicked out of the house, he also broke off their relationship. Zhao Xinfang’s plot can be described as hitting two birds with one stone. She eradicated the obstacle for her future children, and kept her cheating a secret.
Ning Si felt extremely guilty, so naturally, the female protagonist was there to comfort him and cheer him up … …
After reading the material Zhou Yunsheng shook his head and silently sighed. So far, Wang Ma had “worriedly” reported to Ning Si Nian twice, both times Ning Wangshu was severely bruised. Ning Si Nian wanted to talk with Wei Xiyan but Wei Xiyan was very closed off, once he hide in the studio and locked the door, no matter how much you called he wouldn’t come out. This made Ning Si Nian very frustrated so he commanded Wang Ma to stare at Ning Wangshu. Wang Ma herself was the culprit, unless she angered Ning Si, why would she stop?
As the villain, Zhou had been killed by the protagonist hundreds of thousands of times, adding up to at least tens of thousands of years he has been in the virtual world. After getting rid of the system’s control, he decided – unless the protagonist took the initiative to provoke him, he would never entangle himself with the protagonist. Even with slow progress, what did time matter? He no longer had a time limit forced onto him.
As for being Deicide, that was the result of being trapped.
Since he replaced the original body, he would completely live his life the way he always did, plus he’ll avoid all dangers to achieve his wishes. He was now the orphaned and socially closed off Wei Xiyan.
After the bath and change of clothes, Ning Si Nian came back. Wang Ma sent a maid up to call Wei Xiyan to eat.
As the male protagonist, Ning Si Nian’s appearance was extraordinary handsome, his almost 190 centimeters tall stature made him anything he wore work. He was sitting at the table, coaxing his emotionally stunted son Ning Wangshu, hearing footsteps, his eyebrows wrinkled. His cold eyes casually looked over, full of lethality.

I proof read this story with a migraine, so the grammar may be worse than usual but it’s still readable. I’ll fix it up later.
