Chapter 219: The Abstinent Gigolo 19

Tang Wan’s mouth opened slightly in surprise.

“No wonder…”

Then she curled her lips upward and narrowed her eyes lazily.

“I have to admit, even if Xi Jingtong has his problems, he’s still way better than certain weak men who only know how to bark.”

Little Cutie immediately chimed in flatteringly:

“Exactly! Otherwise how could he possibly qualify to be your husband-host?”

“That’s true.” Tang Wan nodded seriously in agreement.

Then Little Cutie cautiously asked, “Host… are you still angry now? Look, the male lead already got beaten up so badly by the villain.”

The moment he said that, Tang Wan snorted coldly.

“That was Tongtong helping me vent my anger. What does it have to do with you?”

Little Cutie instantly looked wronged.

“But… but I also helped broadcast the live scene for you!”

Tang Wan let out another sneer.

“Haha. You only showed me the footage because the villain happened to be there anyway. If you can’t even do something that basic as a system, then what use are you?”

Her baby-level anger wasn’t something that could be soothed that easily.

…

Seeing this, Little Cutie drooped his head pitifully.

“Host… can you forgive me this once? I promise I’ll never trick you like this again.”

Tang Wan suddenly raised an eyebrow.

“It’s not impossible for me to forgive you.”

“Huh?” Little Cutie instantly perked up. “As long as Host forgives me, I’ll do anything you want!”

Tang Wan’s lips curved wickedly.

“The male lead’s arm is broken now too, so he’ll definitely end up hospitalized. Tonight, I want you to create some strange noises in their ward and pretend to be a ghost to scare them.”

After all, she remembered something from the original plot.

Yun Zhe loved acting fearless and showing off.

When the heroine suggested going to a haunted house, he’d stubbornly agreed despite being terrified.

But the moment they entered, he was so frightened that he fainted on the spot.

And hospitals…

Hospitals already carried heavy yin energy to begin with.

If something strange happened in the middle of the night, Yun Zhe would probably cry from fear.

Little Cutie quickly calculated the consequences before nodding enthusiastically.

“No problem!”

As long as he wasn’t directly harming the protagonists or breaking up the CP, simple ghost-scaring technically didn’t violate regulations.

Seeing him agree so quickly, Tang Wan finally smiled in satisfaction.

“Now that’s more like it.”

Little Cutie immediately patted his chest proudly.

“Of course! Leave this matter entirely to me!”

…

Outside the ward, the medical staff had already rushed over after hearing the commotion.

The moment one of the doctors saw Yun Zhe’s limp arm hanging unnaturally at his side, he froze.

“A-Zhe? What happened to you?!”

Zhou Xiaoxiao immediately pointed angrily at Xi Jingtong.

“He did it! He already broke my arm before, and now he broke A-Zhe’s too! I’m definitely calling the police to arrest him!”

Hearing this, Xi Jingtong remained completely calm.

Without even looking at Zhou Xiaoxiao, he addressed the doctors and nurses nearby.

“There are surveillance cameras in the corridor. They’ll prove I acted in self-defense.”

“I only came out to remind them not to make noise in the hospital hallways. Then this gentleman suddenly attacked me.”

“I merely defended myself appropriately.”

“Even if the police come, I’m still in the right.”

Seeing how composed and guiltless Xi Jingtong looked despite having just beaten someone up, the doctor instinctively turned toward Yun Zhe.

“Is that true, A-Zhe?”

Yun Zhe immediately looked both furious and humiliated.

“Would I have hit him if he hadn’t broken Xiaoxiao’s arm first?!”

At that, Xi Jingtong finally looked at him indifferently.

“And do you know why I broke her arm?”

“This young lady nearly crashed into me first. Then, without my consent, she forcibly grabbed my arm and lied to you that I was her boyfriend.”

“Who knows whether the two of you planned this together as some kind of extortion setup?”

“I only injured her while protecting my personal safety.”

“Was I wrong to defend myself?” Xi Jingtong asked calmly.
