Quick Transmigration: The Villain is Destiny, the Protagonist Takes a Backseat

One glass down!

Shen Liuyun was stunned, completely unprepared for this turn of events.

He thought the man was just putting on an act, a way to get his attention.

He got up dejectedly, took a few steps, then resignedly returned and carried the unconscious man on his back.

*

the next day.

Ji Qiuzhe rubbed his throbbing temples as he got out of bed and found himself in a hotel.

As his memories returned, he brushed the strands of hair that had fallen across his forehead back in frustration. He felt incredibly regretful. He had originally wanted to pretend to be drunk to take the opportunity to get closer to Shen Liuyun, but this body had a very low alcohol tolerance. After drinking, he felt dizzy and passed out.

Completely unexpected.

[Host, you're finally awake.] 003 was struggling to hold back his laughter.

Last night, it witnessed firsthand how Shen Liuyun single-handedly carried a much larger man than itself to the hotel.

To be honest, the host actually looks quite charming when she's being teased.

Ji Qiuzhe could hear the mockery in his tone, but he didn't care. He noticed a note on the bedside table next to him, picked it up and saw three big characters written on it: Accommodation Fee.

Below is a string of numbers, which should be a bank card number.

Ji Qiuzhe smiled happily.

Last night, Shen Liuyun was disappointed by him and was probably in a bad mood. He was so focused on leaving his card number that he didn't even think to leave his name and contact information. Was he really that confident in his fame?

Or was she testing him?

After all, if he was determined, Ji Qiuzhe had a hundred ways to find him.

The money needs to be returned, but how it's returned is up to him!

He carefully folded the paper with its strong handwriting and put it in his pocket, intending to frame it when he got home.

Time flies, and a month has passed in the blink of an eye.

During this period, Ji Qiuzhe would go to the studio twice a day to finish the paintings the original owner had taken on, and also to organize his own assets.

First, he bought an apartment next to Shen Liuyun's house, and then invested some of the funds in stocks.

The original owner wasn't very wealthy, so he needed to earn more money so that he could stand confidently by Shen Liuyun's side and be there to protect him at any time.

The main reason is that Jiang Shuihang is very rich. Given the twisted mentality of any man, if he doesn't take precautions, he might do something desperate in the future, and Ji Qiuzhe would have a hard time dealing with it.

That day, Ji Qiuzhe was painting a landscape painting commissioned by a client.

The renovation company called to say that the house renovation was complete and asked when he would be free to come and inspect it.

Ji Qiuzhe immediately indicated that he was available at any time.

Just then, Zhao Qinqin brought in coffee and, hearing the conversation, became somewhat displeased: "Qiu Zhe, why are you suddenly moving out? Are you unhappy living with us?"

She was beautiful and delicate, with a delicate brow that evoked pity in any normal man. That's how Gong Chou fell in love with her at first sight.

Unfortunately, Zhao Qinqin initially set her sights on Ji Qiuzhe, Gong Chou's good friend, but this man always seemed like an oblivious straight man in front of her, unable to develop any romantic feelings.

Unable to find a solution, Zhao Qinqin ultimately chose the palace token.

But perhaps what we can't have is the best. Zhao Qinqin and Gong Chou were together for six years. On the surface, they were very loving, but behind the scenes, she never gave up trying to seduce the original owner.

Unlike Ji Qiuzhe, the original owner of this body couldn't handle Zhao Qinqin, and he was also concerned about Gong Chou's reputation so he didn't directly confront her. He could only hold a grudge about this matter and even after he died, he was still thinking about resolving it.

"That's not the reason."

Ji Qiuzhe revealed an extremely gentle smile, dazzling Zhao Qinqin.

"I met someone I like and I want to be closer to him."

Zhao Qinqin's heart sank. She said unwillingly, "Really? Someone you'd be interested in must be a great beauty, right?"

Ji Qiuzhe ignored her jealousy, his exquisitely sculpted face full of sincerity: "In my heart, he has always been the most beautiful, no one can compare to him."

Even if he ultimately cannot be with Shen Liuyun in this world, he must uphold male virtues and not give anyone else any opportunity to take advantage of him.

Of course, these were his heartfelt words.

Zhao Qinqin's chest heaved violently.

So all her efforts over the years have become a joke?

I thought this man was just clueless, but it turns out he just hadn't met anyone he liked.

She could no longer control herself, slamming the coffee cup down heavily, her beautiful face contorting slightly.

"Oh, the coffee's getting cold. You drink it first, I have to go now."

Ji Qiuzhe didn't drink it; instead, he put on his coat and went out.

The inspection was scheduled for one hour later with the renovation company.

Shen Liuyun's house was in an average location, but it was considered a good place to live in a metropolis where land was extremely valuable.

Ji Qiuzhe was lucky; this new building had only recently gone on sale and there weren't too many residents yet, so he was able to buy a unit next to Shen Liuyun's.

The renovation team he found was fairly reliable. The hard furnishings were mostly fine, and he didn't bother with the minor flaws as long as they weren't too unsightly.

Overall, Ji Qiuzhe was very satisfied.

He readily signed the contract and paid the balance. Unable to wait to open the windows for ventilation, he bought a formaldehyde removal package from the system's online store and immediately booked a moving company.

In less than three days, the new home was decorated neatly and beautifully.

Once everything was ready, Ji Qiuzhe changed into some clean clothes, took the delicate cookies he had baked that morning, and knocked on his neighbor's door.

2 p.m.

Shen Liuyun was still asleep when the doorbell rang. He got up groggily and only realized something was wrong when he got to the door. He asked warily.

"Who?"

The sound was somewhat unclear through the door.

But Ji Qiuzhe had excellent hearing and clearly heard Shen Liuyun's hoarse voice, which further enhanced his already pleasant mood.

"Hello, I'm the new resident who moved in next door."

Shen Liuyun was very impressed by the renovation of the neighbor's house, which had been under construction for a full month.

He works day and night, often working at night and catching up on sleep during the day.

Everything was fine until a month ago when the neighbors started renovating. He hadn't had a single good night's sleep. Today, he finally managed to get some peace and quiet and managed to sleep until the afternoon.

Shen Liuyun was in a bad mood, but when she opened the door and saw that unexpected face, her gloomy mood instantly disappeared.

The person outside the door was none other than the man he had long since given up hope of ever appearing again!

He looked even more handsome during the day than he did at the bar at night, dressed in a neatly tailored casual outfit, exuding a refreshing aura.

"It's you?"

Ji Qiuzhe feigned surprise and handed over a bag of bear-shaped cookies he was carrying.

Shen Liuyun didn't answer, but looked at Ji Qiuzhe suspiciously.

Is it really possible for such a coincidence to happen in the world?

I met this person at a bar a month ago, and a month later I found out that this person had become my new neighbor.

Shen Liuyun found it hard to doubt that this was a coincidence.

Ji Qiuzhe, who had been meticulously planning to create a coincidence, innocently revealed eight teeth: "My house was under renovation before, which caused a lot of trouble. This bag of cookies is for you as an apology."
