I Quit Being The Villain

Chapter 18 A Mother's Worry.

Outside the Shu family's villa.

Gu Lin stopped dead in her tracks as she retracted her hand that was pinched onto her son's ear.

Her face was dark and she felt an overwhelming sense of sadness.

She couldn't help but clench her hands.

She looked downward at the concrete with shaky eyes.

Gu Xia who was silent the entire time as he was pulled out of the villa sighed and gently placed his hand on his mother's head.

"Mother, to be honest I don't know why you're acting like this... You do know I have a reputation I have to hold proudly right?"

"What if word gets out that I was forcefully dragged by my mother?"

"I'll become a target of ridicule and the business world won't take me seriously."

Although Gu Xia wanted to be a little harsher on his mother...

He couldn't do it...

After everything she's done for him with every restart he was forced to do.

He wouldn't even be a villain... He would just be a fucking asshole if he was cruel about this matter.

So, he wanted to try and explain it lightly and in a kinder way.

Hearing her son's words, Gu Lin's body shook a little and her face went pale.

Small tears began forming in her eyes as she suddenly forced her head into her son's broad chest.

She wrapped her hands around his back and sniffled.

"I-I'm s-sorry... I don't want to ruin your reputation... But when I heard that you wanted that bitch as your maid I was worried that she was controlling you like a puppet!"

"I couldn't allow my one and only son to be controlled and used!"

Gu Xia sighed and embraced his mother as he leaned into her ear.

"Mother, to be honest it's the other way around..."

Gu Lin's eyes widened in disbelief as she slightly looked upward to see her son's blood red eyes that stared down at her.

"A-Are you telling the truth?"

She asked with a hint of happiness and a hint of anger.

Although it's a good thing that her son was able to tame that bitch, but... On the other hand she was slightly angry about thinking about her son having intercourse with that iceberg!

'His dick will freeze by entering that frozen pussy!'

Gu Xia showed a gentle smile and lightly nodded his head as he answered his mothers doubts.

"I promise you, that cold iceberg is under my control!"

Seeing that her son was being honest and not lying, Gu Lin felt a little relieved.

She stopped hugging her son and instead backed up a couple inches then placed both of her hands on her chest as she took a deep breath.

'Thank God he's not being controlled... Though I am a little angry that he will be around that iceberg...'

Gu Lin who suddenly came to the realization that she was being a son-con felt her cheeks heat up.

'I-I know I shouldn't act like this... But I'm just worried about my son!'

'That's right! I don't see my son in that type of way!'

Not being able to calm down, Gu Lin excused herself and made her way back into the villa.

Gu Xia simply stayed where he was and showed a small smile as he stared at his mothers back which was getting farther and farther away.

Once his mother was inside the villa he reached into his pocket and grabbed a cigarette case and popped out a single cigarette.

Placing the cigarette in his mouth he then grabbed a lighter that was in his other pocket and lit the cigarette.

He took a sip of his cigarette before dragging it out as he let a puff of smoke appear in the air.

'System... I'm pretty sure my mother is 100,000,000,000,000% a son-con.'

[Are you sure about the host? I just think she's extremely overprotective!]

'Well, maybe I am overthinking it... Though I can say confidently she has a small amount of feelings for me that a mother shouldn't feel for her son.'

[If the host's mother acts on those feelings, will you reject or accept her?]

Gu Xia stopped smoking and let out a laugh as he responded to the system.

'Of course I'll accept her... I don't give a fuck about society rules or any of that bullshit!'

'If my mother acts on her feelings I will accept her fully.'

[I see... Host... I have a question...]

Gu Xia raised a brow in curiosity as he was genuinely interested in what the system's question was.

'Shoot away.'

[...Will the host accept my feelings?]

Instantly, the cigarette inside Gu Xia's mouth fell downwards.

He was flabbergasted and beyond surprised.

'I-I'm sorry I don't swing that way...'

[Host! I'm a female! Don't tell me you didn't know!]

Gu Xia became even more shocked and he even stuttered his words.

'Y-Your an f-female!? I th-thought y-you we-were a m-man t-this ent-entire time!'

[Host!? is this true!?]

Gu Xia placed his hands on his forehead as he stepped on his cigarette that was on the concrete.

'I'll admit it, I thought you were a guy this entire time...'

[Host... I am genuinely hurt...]

'Hey now, don't be that hurt, I wasn't expecting that my system that sounds robotic was female nor male, I just assumed male because I'm just a small villain and not the protagonist.'

[I see... Anyways... Now you know I have feelings for you!]

Gu Xia composed himself by taking a long drag of his cigarette.

He then shrugged his shoulders lazily.

'Sure, I don't mind taking you as a concubine.'

[Really!?]

Gu Xia again lazily shrugged his shoulders as he nodded his head once.

'Well, I don't mind. Can you transform into a human?'

[...Sadly I can't because the host doesn't have a high enough soul essence.]

[You need to be at least the Saint King Realm to summon me in my human form...]

'I see... Well, I will just have to wait until I get stronger to see your human appearance!'

Stretching his body and spitting out his cigarette onto the concrete he began walking back toward the villa's entrance until...

[Oh, host, I forgot to give you a lot of rewards for changing the plot multiple times!]
