Chapter 1810: Wait Until I’m in the Mood
Did he want revenge or was he trying to get something from her?
No matter what Zhang Jiasen was up to, Ning Shu didn’t intend to play along.
She bared her teeth into a mockery of a smile and immediately blocked Zhang Jiasen. Adios…
Meanwhile, the chat system informed Zhang Jiasen that his message couldn’t be sent. He raised an eyebrow and then logged off.
His expression was indifferent. It would be good if the other party was willing to meet him but it didn’t matter if she didn’t. He was just giving it a try.
Ning Shu told 2333, “Let’s meet the next entrustor.”
2333 spent ages stammering. “You really don’t want to do the task with a system?”
“I’m not doing it,” Ning Shu said without hesitation. “Wait until I’m in the mood.”
“It’s not like you’re just doing the task for me! You’ll also get experience points and attribute points! Why are you being so stubborn?” 2333 asked.
Ning Shu smiled. “It’s not the task I’m refusing, it’s you.”
2333 suddenly started acting cute. “Ning Shu, don’t be like this~”
“Could you grow a spine? A little bit of backbone?” Ning Shu’s smile remained. “Like me, for example. I’ve always disliked you. That’s a firm position that will never change.”
You were always trash.
2333: …
A figure slowly appeared in the space. The girl looked about 16 years old. She wore brocade clothing and although the material was a little old, Ning Shu could see that it was very fine. She also had a hairpin in her hair, but its style was rather old fashioned.
Not at all the kind someone that young would wear.
The girl was beautiful: she had sculpted eyebrows, fair skin, dark eyes, and cherry-red lips. One glance was enough to declare her a beauty. But she had a certain timidness about her that dropped her beauty from a solid nine to a mere four.
Even here, her head hung low and she looked very ill at ease. She saluted Ning Shu. “Qingqian’s humble greetings, Lady…”
Ning Shu inhaled, already feeling an ache in her jaw. Another ancient era world. Ning Shu really didn’t like these ancient era worlds, they had far too many restraints on women. That was always a huge hindrance to completion of her tasks.
Ning Shu returned the greeting and said, “You want a counterattack.”
“Yes, I would like to request a counterattack.” Feng Qingqian raised her head and said, “I’ll offer 70% of my soul energy. I don’t want to be the object of comparison! I want my body back and my parents… I hate them!”
Ning Shu saw Feng Qingqian’s agitation spiking and tried to soothe her. “Please speak slowly and clearly so I can understand what you want.”
Feng Qingqian took a deep breath. Her beautiful eyes met Ning Shu’s. “I want my body to be mine again. I don’t want her to dominate it.”
Seeing the state Feng Qingqian was in, Ning Shu decided to take a look at this world’s storyline first.
It was the story of an assassin queen who transmigrated into ancient times.
Ying Su was a top-tier female assassin. She was cold, noble-looking, and ran the world before she was finally betrayed and tossed into the ocean. Then she transmigrated into the body of the cowardly, incompetent, and naïvely in love, Feng Qingqian.
Upon waking, Ying Su discovered that the body had been drowned, and then discovered that the body’s mother was killed by the family’s legal wife.
Ying Su’s phoenix eyes slightly narrowed and a harshness flashed within them, the warmth of the original host’s gaze freezing over. While she was disgusted with the original host for being ‘useless’ and ‘letting’ others bully her, she said, “I’ll live well for you. I’ll make those vicious people suffer a hundred times, no, a thousand times over.”
If the original host could live on instead, why would she want someone else to live for her? It was ridiculous. It felt like the original host existed only to contribute her body to this interloper.
No one in the world would be willing to accept that fate.

#Shark’s Comments: I have seen so many novels with this exact plot. 99% of the time, the MCs are just as awful as the people they’re exacting vengeance on.
