There Will Always Be Protagonists With Delusions of Starting a Harem

Jun Zhenzhen’s post was written concisely, with a very clear and eye-catching main point. She started the post off from Jun Shujing’s college entrance exam failures and wrote all the way to before her coma, and the changes at home after her ‘illness’ was cured. The post made references to all the attached pictures, showing real evidence and validity. Every second, this post poked at the mental state of the gossipy players.

The male leads' expressions changed multiple times. They couldn't help stopping several times to exchange information with each other. When Shi Zhe saw the part of Jun Zhenzhen coincidentally meeting Jun Shujing in the central city mall, he called to stop reading for the first time. "I know about this part because I was with her when this happened. After that girl appeared, Shujing said goodbye to me very fast, and then took the girl with her. She later explained to me that her family found out about her opening a restaurant, and was trying to find her everywhere to stop her, harass her and ask her for money.

“I know about this, too.” Tang Ye slightly frowned and said with a heavy tone, “I also helped her block her father’s businesses. She told me that doing this type of thing would stop her family from harassing her again.”

With a dark face, Sun Fanchen continuously spun the dart in his hand and said, “I helped her move to a villa with better security and secrecy. I sympathized with her so I gave her 40% off too, even throwing in three years of property management… Hmph, turned out that she was lying about them ‘coming to harass her’.”

Tang Ye glanced at him. He wasn't in a good mood so he unconsciously took some more snacks to eat. Shi Zhe looked at the two men with the thoughts in his head whirling, he shook his head and sighed, "It seems like we were all cheated."

Although all the other male leads didn’t know about these events when they happened, Jun Shujing told them about it and they more or less all helped her. Now it looked like all of them got played.

Bao Yanan’s expression was the calmest of the several male leads. He glanced at the others, picked up a snack and ate it. He looked liked he was at the movies with his friends. "What else is there? I'm more concerned about that intentional murder part.”

Ye Zhizhou held his lover back, who was once again starting to release a cold aura, and moved to the next page of the post. "It should be at the bottom."

Jun Zhenzhen’s poisoning was the main point of her descriptive post. She spent a lot of time describing it, and because she used the first-person point of view, it allowed people to experience it more vividly. The male leads, who were only slightly frowning at first, all became serious and sat up to read the post carefully.

"A light and airy comforting feeling… A slowly changing fragrance… The brain began to become fuzzy…” Bao Yanan slowly repeated these words, his eyes slightly narrowed and the MT’s unique golden light shield circled his body, displaying his agitated mood. “It’s no wonder now why I recently felt like my brain wasn’t working properly, it turns out I was almost killed by slow poison.”

Tang Ye’s expression became very terrible. He tightened his hands and gripped the sword at his waist. “No wonder I smelled that person's scent after eating the food… It turned out to just be an illusion.”

“I’ve had occasional lapses in concentration during my surgeries. I had thought that it was because I was too tired and just wasn’t in good condition. I didn’t dare to go to the operating table during this period because of that.” Shi Zhe’s eyes flashed with an unknown emotion before it became anger. “I was kind enough to help her with her legs, and she actually harmed me like this.”

Yu Jiangbo was silent for a bit before saying, “Do you guys remember? Shujing once said that there was a problem with Fu Yuan’s dishes and that eating too much would hurt your body, but she said it was useless for her to report it and hoped that we could help… After that, she invited us to have a meal in Fu Yuan to verify her statement. We went there and indeed did feel somewhat uncomfortable after eating, but it disappeared shortly. Could it be that it wasn't Fu Yuan’s dishes that had a problem, but it was that she poisoned us already?"

When Ge Lu heard that they actually suspected that there was something wrong with his lover’s restaurant, he couldn’t help unsheathing his sword again. Ye Zhizhou prevented him from doing so and also turned around to block his mouth, so he didn't say anything he shouldn't say. Ge Lu was stunned, but then quickly put his arms around Ye Zhizhou and kissed him back, throwing away his anger and other emotions into the sky.

Qi Xing’s face contorted as he looked away and resignedly helped Ye Zhizhou to explain, “I was just about to tell you guys this. I took you guys to Fu Yuan for dinner a few days ago and didn’t you all get sick after that? That's normal because your bodies were in detoxification mode. Fu Yuan found a problem within Gentleman's Pavilion's dishes, so they reported it and also added something like an antidote to their dishes in the meantime. Those who weren't poisoned wouldn't feel anything, but those who were poisoned would feel some discomfort, but afterwards, their body would become healthier."

Sun Fanchen sneered. "Jun Shujing has such courage, going as far as using poison."

“It’s not surprising that my appetite has improved these past two days, and that I couldn’t even eat any food from Gentleman’s Pavilion. I felt sick the moment I smelled it.” He Nian suddenly understood and then bowed his head in shame. “Back then, we had suppressed the Fu family and harmed a perfectly good culinary family into ruin… When Qi Xing invited us to dinner, we actually questioned it. But in reality, you actually saved our lives. We’re really…”

The male leads were silent after hearing these words.

Ye Zhizhou pushed his unwilling to move and sticky lover away to look at the system’s pop-ups, nodding with satisfaction. Very good. The love probability of all six flags has fallen below the safety line. When the residual insect poison in the male leads’ bodies were all gone, making them free from the insect poison's influence and no longer brain-damaged, the flags could probably be pulled out. Unfortunately, the in-game pills that he refined weren’t as effective as Tongtian’s pills in reality. They could only help the male leads keep a clear and calm mind. Otherwise, with all the snacks they just ate, all of the poison would’ve already been cleared.

At this moment, it became 8:30 pm, and all the other invited experts came one after another. Ge Lu couldn't use his GM account to participate in the instance, so he changed back to the side account and continued to stick to Ye Zhizhou's side.

The protagonist came exactly at 9:00 pm, bringing along with her a fangirl army.

The experts, who were exchanging greetings and discussing possible rewards obtained for defeating the Zerg Queen, looked over at her one by one before quickly turning away to continue talking, tacitly ignoring her.

Jun Shujing’s face was smiling, but in her heart, she was hatefully clenching her teeth so hard they almost wanted to shatter. Her in-game business was now completely destroyed and the people who once flattered her began to joke about her, ignore her and the worse ones even began to hate her and retaliate against her! All this had changed since Ye Zhizhou triggered the Holy Level Quest! If she hadn't wanted to teach him a lesson during this last task, she wouldn't have come today at all!

The brain-damaged fan Angel Wings also came with the protagonist. When she saw the experts' actions, she couldn't help coming out to angrily say, “How can you do this to my family's Jing Shu baby!! If it wasn’t for the buffed food she had provided you, would you have been able to become great experts?" As she said this she looked over at the male leads who were standing together with a wronged expression on her face. “Ye Tang baby, why are you standing so far? Come here. And Xing baby, why haven't you come to find Jing Shu baby recently? Could it be that you also believe in those deceitful stories on the forum? Zhe baby, I…"

“This young lady,” Shi Zhe couldn't stand the way she was addressing them, and couldn't help but interrupt her words to say, “I don’t know you. Please don't address me so casually."

There were several bursts of laughter in the crowd. Angel Wing's face turned red, and she looked at him with tears. “You, you… I didn’t expect you to be such a person! A waste of Jing Shu baby's good treatment towards you back then, ungrateful! Thankless wretch!"

Shi Zhe completely didn’t know how to deal with such a girl, but said, “This young lady, Jing Shu and I are just ordinary friends. Please don't say words that people can misunderstand."

“No! You obviously love her! Y-you even helped her treat her leg. Was it because you saw that Jing Shu baby no longer has money, so you want to abandon her? You've crossed the line! I didn’t think you were this kind of snobbish person!” Angel Wings became even more angered.

I Married for Wealth was the most annoyed with this Angel Wings. He sneered when he heard her words and said, “Shi Zhe is a doctor right? Isn’t it normal for doctors to help patients? Moreover, the great young master of the Shi family needs to go to that snobbish Shujing for pocket money? Can you mend your IQ and have more care when speaking?”

“Exactly.” Another female expert who was secretly in love with Shi Zhe couldn’t help opening her mouth to coldly add, “Those disgusting rumors of seven men going after one woman were all spread out by you brainless fans. Everyone is in the same circle. Who doesn’t know who? Obviously, it’s just an ordinary friend relationship, but deliberately bewitching fans to go out and spread rumors, simply disgusting. Oh, don’t say that I’m ungrateful, I haven’t eaten those poisonous Royal Feast foods with added ingredients."

Angel Wings was about to explode again but Jun Shujing quickly grabbed her and choked out, “Little Wings is still young. Are you guys all happy teaming up and bullying her?" As she said this she looked at Ye Zhizhou and put on a smile of “I’m being bullied but I’m staying strong". "Let’s go in. My sisters and I will work hard in today’s task. Thank you for unlocking so many food buffs for us."

“Great god Jing Shu is being polite.” Ye Zhizhou gave an even more fake smile than hers and then said in embarrassment, “I’m sorry, there’s only one space left, and the people I've invited have all…”

Jun Shujing frowned and asked, “Just adding one person isn't ok? Little Wings is young, but her healing technique is very good. I see that the number of healers you have is rather small. It'll be safer with one more. Everyone is here to help you and you're being this picky…”

The female expert who was secretly in love Shi Zhe heard the words and snorted. “If he wants to be picky, he can be picky, OK? Is the Holy Level Quest's last task some white cabbage you can pick off the road, where you can participate if you want to participate?"

Jun Shujing was reprimanded, and her complexion became very ugly. Looking at Ye Zhizhou, she said in a relaxed voice, “It was wrong of me but I was just saying this for your own good. Can we really not add another person?”

Ye Zhizhou shook his head, motioned to the experts who had already assembled for a while, and spread out his hands.

Angel Wings pouted and pulled at Jun Shujing’s sleeve. “I heard that there was a special reward for this last task…” As she said this, her gaze swept through the expert's circle, and then her eyes fell on the shadow of some gray-robed stranger. She then said in a loud voice, “That person is so poorly equipped, and she's not some famous expert. Why is she in the team? Just kick her out and add me in, wouldn't that be fine?”

Ye Zhizhou heard this, looked back and saw Jun Zhenzhen in the side account provided by Ge Lu, looking over cooly before moving a bit to reveal the shining top quality weapon in her hand.

The experts laughed again.

“Are you going to join or not?” Ge Lu glanced at Jun Shujing coldly, turning to point toward Jun Zhenzhen's account, and looked at the players who were watching the show on the side. “I have more than ten such side accounts. Who wants to replace Jing Shu? As long as your skills are good enough.”

Suddenly, there was an uproar amongst the players. More than a dozen side accounts with purple weapons, this person really has money! It was equivalent to about 10000 poor players playing.

Hearing this, Jun Shujing quickly held down Angel Wings and said with a smile, “This child is just a little noisy. Don’t mind her. Let's enter the instance. It’s important to defeat the Zerg Queen.” She said this as she sent Ye Zhizhou a team request.

The watching players sighed in disappointment. The experts who didn’t want to see Jun Shujing couldn’t help sneering. Angel Wings was angered to the point of glaring at all of them.

The team gathered together, the golden quest prompt in midair once again changed, and Ye Zhizhou tapped on it, sending everyone to the last instance. After some distortion in the atmosphere, the image in front of them turned into a dark cave. The mission guide showed that the Zerg Queen was deep inside the cave. They needed to clear the little monsters before they could get close. All of them were experts. The process of clearing the small monsters was very smooth. A quarter of an hour later, they all stood in front of the Zerg Queen.

Poof, a small fireball suddenly came from a crafty angle, going straight towards the quietly sleeping Zerg Queen. Everyone was shocked. The task hadn't been divided, the commands haven't been given, the method of fighting hasn't been discussed so how could someone directly attack? Were they brain-damaged?

Ye Zhizhou, who had already expected that the protagonist would make trouble, threw a rare large-scale silencing charm directly at the fireball, extinguishing it. He turned to look at the protagonist and smiled. “Great god Jing Shu, you're a healer. Please calm down a little and not randomly use skills.”

Everyone glared at her, and Jun Shujing, with a stiff face tried to maintain her calm expression. She said sheepishly, “I’m a little nervous. My hands shook. I’m sorry.”

“Hands shook? Only fools would believe you." Brother Married for Wealth sneered with disdain. He didn't understand at all why Ye Zhizhou had invited such a black-hearted and rotten woman.

Jun Shujing showed a helpless, bullied expression on her face, but she didn’t retort. She habitually turned to lean on Tang Ye and wanted him to defend her. However, at this moment, Tang Ye's heart was full of disgust and anger towards her, and he stepped away from her with a dark face.

The golden characters in midair suddenly changed. After thoroughly describing the Zerg Queen's attack pattern, a prompt came up.

【Livestream of the entire instance beginning. Good luck players.】

An expert doubtfully asked, “Livestream? How is it livestreaming this?"

Ge Lu opened team sharing and clicked on the world channel. “After the livestream starts, there'll be another live panel on the world channel. Players can clearly see the process of us defeating the Zerg Queen from this panel. You need to pay a certain amount of gold coins to watch the livestream. When the task is completed, the system will distribute the gold coins to you according to your contribution.” That is to say, the leeches won't earn anything and the hard workers will make big bucks.

Thinking about the number of online players in mainland China at night, and then thinking about the popularity of this Holy Level Quest… Getting rich overnight wasn't a dream!

The experts were excited. Jun Shujing’s face became dark. The entire instance was actually livestreamed. Then, how could she cause problems?! If she knew about this, she would've insisted on Angel Wings being added. That way, she could throw the blame to her… It was all because of that gray-robed female player! If she had money to burn, why was she just using a purple weapon!?

Thinking of this, her gaze unconsciously turned towards the player who had been standing at the back of the team and found that the other side also happened to be looking over. She was startled, hurriedly calmed down and smiled at the other.

Jun Zhenzhen moved her eyes and smiled at her. Then, she raised her finger to point at the shared livestream panel above the team, hooked her lips and mouthed a sentence—Jun Shujing, you're finished.

Because the light was so dim, Jun Shujing wasn't able to clearly see what she said. She thought the other side was greeting her. She smiled at the other again and then turned her head back.
