So what the hell just happened in the latest chapter?!!! Luxia slapped herself, even Luxia was shocked with her actions. Well she tried to slap the trash ML but instead she slapped herself and she got even humiliated. Maybe the OG character is also in control like wtf?! If the plot of this arc will be like that, I feel like that the OG character will stop Luxia cuz she loves the Trashy ML A new arc has begun.
Spoiler: chapter 269: If You're Rich, So What Before the agent entered the body: OG FL (Ling Xing Zi) accidentally spilt some coffee onto Ms.Su's skirt but didn't apologize, Xing Zi instead offered to wash her skirt. Ms.Su then scolds her, the manager have to step in to apologize to Ms.Su saying that Xing Zi is new and asks Xing Zi to apologize but she didn't want to because its an accident, furthermore she already promise to wash her skirt, so what right does Ms.Su have to scold her and why does she have to apologize, if you are rich, does that mean that you are high and mighty? Ms.Su then tells her that this is a designer's skirt, there's only one skirt in the world, on top of that using water will also not remove the stain, so how is Xing Zi gonna wash it clean for her, Xing Zi fights back and said that rich peoples' taste are so weird. On ML's pardon, Ms.Su gives her 2 options, 1 is to apologize to her or she leaves, Xing Zi thinks that rich people are evil, she just accidentally spilt some coffee and she wants her to quit her job. ML arrives, slaps Ms.Su, asks why does she have to bully Xing Zi, she says that's because she (ms.su) likes him very much and can't bear to see him love someone else because she love him for 10 years. ML says so what, he hates her anyways and tells her if she bullies Xing Zi again, he will make sure to make her regret being born in this world, he then turns to XIng Zi and asks her why didn't she call him if she's being bullied. Xing Zi pouts and says she didn't even request for his help, Ms.Su then starts begging for ML to look at her just once because without him, she can't leave. ML (pulls a Saitama) says oh, okay, you can go die then, and leaves with Xing Zi while she's still working. ML says that he will tell her manager that she's on holiday, Xing Zi acts all cute while saying evil rich people~ Ms. Su asks herself why ML never looked once at her despite working so hard and wonders if she dies, will he look back just once, so she cuts her wrist & is being sent to the hospital, she nearly dies but lives as the agent is now in her body. Mouse gives her a summary of the og story, ML (Gu Nan Cheng) is the (cliche) bossy cold ceo that never has any interest in girls except for XZ, but XZ despises rich people so their love is like 'I love you but I don't love you', Luxia asks him to shorten his summary because she lost too much blood so she's dizzy. Mouse thinks Luxia's scary, before that she always let him finish before she speaks, and continues saying Ms.Su is the rich evil lady that enjoys picking on XZ because her love for ML is not returned, but she fails every time she tries to pick on her as ML always appear (in shining armour) to save XZ. There's one agent before Luxia but she failed because every time she tries to flip the ship, she always fail, so all the info and the agent's experiences are all deleted. With no reference, the mission will be harder, Luxia then tells mouse that this is what makes the mission interesting. The chapter ends with mouse telling her not to be overly confident. the name of the owner of the body that luxia is possessing is not revealed, the manhua writes her name as Su * * Chap's real long... Me after reading first chap: 0.0 why can't you just say a simple sorry? i dislike the fl & ml, i dont dislike the fl & ml tl;dr, im confused about fl's & ml's character Edit: the arc's title is The CEO Wants To Go On A Strike
Spoiler: chapter 270: Luxia is Possessed Mouse tells Luxia that ML took XZ under his wing, he gave her a home but XZ refuses so she became his assistant instead. Luxia exclaims that it's interesting, doesn't XZ know that the only reason she can be his assistant is because of ML, mouse tells her not to be so concerned with the novel characters and is rather interested in Luxia's plan as well as why she decides to go to the company today. Luxia plans to go the the company to meet XZ & ML, so mouse thinks that she gonna split them but she's not, her goal is to help Ms.Su to live properly for the rest of her life, and the 1st rule to that is too not date and she throws the photo of ML and Ms. Su into the bin. Luxia further asks mouse isn't that scum men that beat women is best paired with trash? (burn~) In the company's meeting, Luxia asks who's the one that write report, XZ answers that its her & is annoyed as well, Luxia then starts to point out her mistakes (there's lots of them 0.o) and asks XZ why does she give her (luxia) such trash, is she looking down on the company? ML steps in, brushes it off as a small mistake and tells Luxia not to pick on her for her own jealousy, Luxia then tells him he is her company's business partner, his assistant had made mistakes and he's now scolding her instead? Luxia adds that the Gu family's is unfortunate to have such a heir like him, XZ's angry and tells her to face her instead of ML because he has done nothing wrong, furthermore, she knows that Ms.Su despises her but she spent such a long time and so much effort on the report. Luxia tells her so what if she puts in so much effort, does this mean that Luxia have to accept a report that has more that 100 mistakes in it, Luxia tells XZ that this is the working world, Luxia doesn't care about the effort, she just wants results. XZ starts crying, she thinks that rich people despises poor people, Luxia corrects her and tells her the reason she scold XZ is not because she's poor, but is because she's dumb. ML wants to slap Luxia, Luxia stops him and wanted to slap him back but ends up slapping herself, mouse was so happy narrating that Luxia's gonna slap the scum ML but stopped halfway because Luxia slapped herself. Luxia then began acting like Ms. Su, saying that she knows ML hates her but she can't leave ML so, as long as ML likes she's willing to do anything for him. ML pushes her away while telling her that she's gross and leaves with XZ while holding her hand, thus Luxia fell onto the ground and the other members of the meeting left while commenting that Ms.Su had a deep one sided love for ML but unfortunately the gods hate her and the Su family must be embarrassed to have a daughter like her. Mouse thinks that Luxia is possessed so he starts performing a ritual & Luxia snaps back to existence. The chapter ends with Luxia knowing the reason why the previous agent failed is because there's a much higher entity in this world, and just now, she being controlled by it. the owner's body's name is Luxia (well its kinda 'duh, obv' at this point) and I have concluded my thoughts of fl & ml of this story: trash and trash fits together very well ; D
Higher entity, huh. something like the world's god? well, whoever that entity is needs to get their ass kicked EDIT: quoted twice
I was thinking the higher entity was another system. So its like a system on top of another system. I wonder if Luxia have to do like what she did in Xue Yi's arc (the one with the aquarium of fishes), aka being really cautious not to trigger anything or make the higher entity believe that Luxia is still fulfilling the super cliche villainess role while Luxia is secretly completing her mission. To be honest, the world that Luxia is in right now is the most basic cliche love story that almost every story stems out from. The story has completed the trifecta; a rich, cold, bossy ceo ML that only has eyes for the MC and always arrive on time in shining armor to save his princess, the poor, weak doormat MC that is always being bullied by the villainess for doing nothing at all that will patiently wait for her prince charming, and lastly the rich, spoiled villainess that always have a one sided love towards the ML and always bully MC out of jealousy. The story just lacked the engagement between the villainess and the ML, if the story has it, you've got nearly the recipe for nearly every romance stories out there. LOL
I'm... speechless. the new FL is like a mixture of Xiaowei and Feng Wushuang, but dumber and have more "pride". She's more delusional than Su Mingyue. Honestly, if not because of the "higher being"s interference, our Agent Su would've kicked them off the curb easy-peasy. It's probably like the vs evil bug system situation. I'm pretty excited for this arc.
Spoiler: side story: The Real Male Lead Yan died, when the people heard the news, there were many discussions and her clan rebel, also JM's progress dropped to 30%, he wants to 'repay' Luxia's favor. JM wants to return to the system, so he asks robot to look after trash, robot just have to make sure that he's alive, if wants something then give him, thus robot went to trash & got caught by trash. 1 year ago, Trash was contracted by the rogue evil system (devil system), because of his greed and evilness towards JM, trash was thinking if JM can control him, this means that JM can one day take everything from him if JM became his enemy and he doesn't want to lose everything so he accepted the contract from the devil system. This is why he let his consorts go cray cray with killing people, when the devil system absorbs evil, it can grow fast, his power will grow as well, if he has power, he doesn't have to worry JM taking everything from him, this way he can remain as the true male lead. Trash guess that robot is JM's source of power, so if he captured robot, he will have access to JM's source of power. The chapter ends with trash saying that he's been waiting for this day for a long time. the rogue evil system again -_- and trash is smarter than i think.
Yeah, trash is smart, sadly his view of women is too low. So it means that he 'indulge' in his concubine in their evil routine is to make him stronger?? Then, it is all JM's fault as he is too lazy and too cocky to oversee his mission...
Spoiler: Chapter 271: Attack the CEO at night Luxia and Hamster are talking about the "higher consciousness". Luxia says that means it is able to control not just her, but perhaps every single person in this world. This explains a lot, such as why her original body wanted to live on but had to commit suicide, why the shareholders ignored such glaring mistakes in the contract, and why other people did not react to Luxia's eccentric actions. Luxia then hypothesises that this novel world is still being controlled by its creator. Hamster denies it, saying that once a world is created, it has to leave its creators' control and become autonomous, otherwise in all of their previous worlds, they (Luxia and Hamster) would be killed off by the creators. Luxia then points out: what if this world is incomplete? It's only her guess, but if it's true, then her opponents are going to be harder to deal with here. Luxia says that she'll tell Hamster more when she's confirmed the state of things. In the meantime, she's going to go seek revenge for her face. Hamster prays for the two scum leads. So they experiment, and every time they're near the two leads Luxia ends up being controlled (e.g. when she wants to congratulate the female lead with wine, she ends up pouring wine on her, when she's going to a violin performance she ends up trying to win the male lead's heart with a song...) Hamster is worked up and asks if they really have to do these experiments for the 100th time when it's clear that every time Luxia is near the scum leads, the creator/controlling force will force her into the villainess role. Luxia says that there may be an ~accident~ this time; the male lead is home alone, and it'll be convenient~ with just two people. Just as the male lead is done showering, he sees Luxia and asks what she wants. Luxia then says, "I'm here to collect interest." Luxia slaps him, much to his shock, and Luxia says, "As I expected."
Is she trying to check for a condition for her to be controlled? which seems to require FL's presence
things are getting quite spicy. regarding about the control thing, here's my take on it (it's gonna be wayyy off the rails) what if luxia only gets controlled in the parts of the story that is shown? for example, if there's a part of the story where ML brings XZ to cafe for date wasn't included in the shown to the readers (aka scene that wasn't included in the story at all) & luxia decides to 'collect her interest' in that time period, she can act however she wants. if that's the case, as long as the author/creator of the world left out many things between that cp (couple), luxia has many chances to smack their faces (like how asian mothers smack rice sacks XD) . also, what if it's only luxia & XZ, will luxia be controlled as well?
It was already estabilisihed that ML always come to the FL's side when she is in trouble. So if Luxia wants to do anything to FL, she needs to prevent ML to come to her side. assuming both ML and FL needs to be together for her to be controlled that is
It maybe that the world is only shown by the perspective of the fl so if she is close by or something wrong happens to her it always ends in her favor.
So, it is like "Villainess Maker"? Where if she doesn't do something villain like if it is in the storyline, then the day is repeat?? But, in this one, she can't control herself?
Spoiler: Chapter 272: The World's Consciousness is Terrifying After slapping him, the ML says, "you're really heavy-handed." Luxia then says, "Well, you deserved it." Meanwhile, Hamster is confused why Luxia can slap ML right now. Luxia explains that this is because they're not in the novel's plot right now; the novel is from the FL's point of view, so as long as she's there, all the characters will be forced to act a certain way by the world's consciousness. Luxia then asks the ML, "When did your own self-awareness arise?" ML is shocked, but denies it and tells Luxia to get out. Luxia tells him that it's fine even if he denies it right now, because he'll come seeking her help soon enough. But after Luxia is booted out, ML says to himself, "what use is it asking you for help when you can't even save yourself?" Luxia then tells Hamster that she realised the ML was also self-aware of the novel because all throughout, his acting was very stiff and he often avoided physical contact with the FL. The final straw was that although the ML is a brutal man, when Luxia slapped him, he did not retaliate. By his nature, he would even have killed her family for such a small slight. Also, he wasn't curious as to why Luxia had a change of heart (as compared to the 99 times when she was forced to act lovingly towards him). Luxia suspects that her previous self/body had worked together with the ML to overturn the world's consciousness but failed. Hamster then says, "wait, what exactly is this world's consciousness? An author clearly cannot interfere with a independent novel world!" Luxia agrees, "The author only has corrective powers when it comes to an incomplete work. But an incomplete work will usually not have its own novel world, so this might be the work of a devil system!" Usually, a devil system would target those authors who have fanciful imaginations (i.e. their stories don't have a logical plot progression, but develop in 'creative', almost absurd ways) but also wicked intentions. The devil system would make use of their desires and 'creative' talent to prematurely make a novel world. And when the novel world has been created to a satisfying extent, the devil system will suck the author inside the novel world and be so consumed by it that finally the novel world collapses. (t/n: rough translation) Hamster says, "thank god we didn't use any tools, or else the devil system would know that something's wrong. Let's run!" But Luxia refuses to run, saying that the devil system is operating in the open whereas they are resisting it underground/undetected, so they still have a chance. Furthermore, the devil system has caused them so much trouble, it's time to 'repay' the favour. Hamster says that Luxia just doesn't want to let the original body down because it's been through so much, and says that Luxia is so kind. The scene then switches to the author of the novel, Han XingXing, looking through the comments for her novel. She used to write a lot of novels, but their reception was lukewarm. And then, she met a devil system which promised her great power etc. So now her novels would follow the general plot points but automatically invent the story events in between. This caused her stories to be greatly received by the readers. All she has to do is to force characters to act a certain way at key points in the novel to make sure that there's no deviation from her general plot. She's checking on the amount of power she has left for this month's monitoring of the novel, and realises that the devil system already used up quite a bit. So she suspects that Luxia has awakened her self-awareness, and finds it troublesome. But unlike the devil system's ability to directly order Luxia to commit suicide, she can only cause accidents to occur to kill Luxia. At the end, she laments about how hard it is for her that she has to think of a logical way to kill off Luxia with an accident.
fufufu, this chap's preetty interesting. and my take on why luxia is being controlled is 8/10 correct lol the devil system mentioned in this chap is the highest category among the 3 category
