The Villain Turned the Heroines Into Resentment Souls

Chapter 11: Xiao Mingyue Grits Her Teeth in Anger! The Thunderous Methods of Xu Hao:

Xu Hao left.

Sitting in his car, the light refracted in, casting a flicker in his eyes. His words to Xiao Mingyue earlier were more than just a warning. A mistake meant punishment.

As the heir to the Xu family, being looked down upon by a woman was intolerable. If word got out, how could he maintain his place in these high circles?

In the original novel, his character retreated step by step, giving in to the protagonist’s every need, and in the end, he was killed.

But he wouldn’t make such a pathetic mistake.

Now that he had taken action, it would strike like a thunderbolt—swift and overwhelming, leaving Xiao Mingyue crushed under his power.

There were many ways to deal with a cold, aloof business woman like her.

And he chose the most direct and brutal approach.

Xiao Mingyue took pride in her billion-dollar company, but Xu Hao was curious to see her face when she realized how insignificant it all was in front of him.

He picked up his phone and dialed a number. After giving a few instructions, he smiled to himself.

He had to admit—it felt good to put Xiao Mingyue in her place, a woman who many men dreamed of.

[Ding! Your emotional value has exceeded 10,000, unlocking the lottery function.]

“Oh?”

Xu Hao raised an eyebrow. Glancing at the system prompt, he saw it had unknowingly reached 10,000.

He checked the lottery feature, which was divided into two categories: Ordinary Lottery, requiring 10,000 emotional points, and Special Lottery, which needed 100,000 emotional points.

As for the rewards, they varied in quality. The Special Lottery significantly increased the chance of winning better prizes.

He scanned through the possible rewards: X-ray vision, mind reading, gambling and stone-cutting skills, a luxury villa, a pistol, lace underwear, Durex… The list was vast and overwhelming. Xu Hao couldn’t help but feel tempted to test his luck.

“Lottery!”

With a silent thought, a roulette wheel appeared in his mind, spinning rapidly.

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for winning: “The stock trends for the next three days.”]

“Interesting…”

Xu Hao’s lips curled into a smirk as he rubbed his chin.

He had been thinking about how to make more money for his company, and now the opportunity had presented itself.

His rise as a business god was about to begin. What a perfect story.

“Turn the car around. We’re going to the office!”

…

Meanwhile, at the Shengshi Hotel, in one of the private rooms—

Xiao Mingyue finally regained her composure, though her face still showed traces of confusion. It all felt so unreal. Xu Hao’s attitude toward her had completely changed, and he had even slapped her.

She couldn’t help but recall his parting words, and a sense of fear settled over her.

Grabbing her handbag, she hurriedly left the room, covering her face with her hand as she rushed out.

Just before reaching the hotel door, a well-dressed waiter stopped her.

“Miss, you haven’t settled your bill yet.”

Xiao Mingyue froze, not understanding at first. “What did you say?” she asked blankly.

The waiter maintained a professional smile, repeating patiently, “Miss, you haven’t settled the bill yet.”

“The man who was with me…”

She had only sipped tea, while Xu Hao ordered and ate the expensive meal. She hadn’t touched anything else.

“He said the box was reserved under your name, so naturally, the bill is yours.”

Xiao Mingyue had no choice but to accept this humiliating reality.

All her life, she had never paid for a meal herself. Even during business meetings, her partners always fought over the check. It seemed Xu Hao had really changed.

Just yesterday, he would have eagerly handed her money. Now, he wouldn’t even pay for a meal.

Furious, she took out a card and handed it over. “Charge it.”

Although she could afford tens of thousands, the loss stung.

The waiter hesitated for a moment, staring at the red mark on her face.

The slap Xu Hao had left behind was still glaringly obvious on her delicate skin. Xiao Mingyue quickly covered her face again, realizing she had exposed the mark.

The waiter, recovering from the shock, took out the card machine and swiped the card.

Inside, she was puzzled. She hadn’t expected someone as cold and untouchable as Xiao Mingyue to be so submissive. The upper-class truly had strange hobbies, she mused.

If Xiao Mingyue had heard her thoughts, she might have coughed up blood from anger.

[Beep… Your balance is insufficient.]

What?

Xiao Mingyue froze. This was her personal card, the one she used for her own spending. She distinctly remembered having 200,000 on it.

“Your total comes to 235,800 yuan.” The waiter informed her politely.

Xiao Mingyue’s face darkened. She cursed inwardly. Over 200,000 yuan for a few dishes? Xu Hao really knew how to pick the priciest options.

[Ding! You gained 123 anger points from Xiao Mingyue.]

The waiter’s gaze grew more curious, but Xiao Mingyue had no choice. She reluctantly pulled out another card, embarrassed, and finally paid the bill before leaving in a daze.

…

Once back in her car, Xiao Mingyue sped toward her company. The ominous feeling continued to gnaw at her.

Suddenly, her phone rang, startling her. She glanced at the screen. It was her newly hired secretary. Her heart sank.

She quickly answered.

“Miss Xiao, we have a problem. The safety inspection department is here. They say our drugs pose a safety risk and have ordered us to halt production…”

“The tax bureau is here as well. They claim the company has been evading taxes… And the bank is demanding immediate repayment of our loans…”

“And there’s more…”

Each new piece of information sent a shockwave through Xiao Mingyue.

Frantically, she instructed the secretary to stabilize the situation, then dialed another number—her uncle, a high-ranking official in the city.

This man was a powerful figure and her biggest support. His influence was one of the reasons she had always been so confident.

The Xu family might be powerful, but their main influence was in the capital. Surely, they couldn’t dominate this city as well.

But she had miscalculated.

Very badly.

After a tense conversation, her uncle confirmed her fears.

“Niece, this is coming from higher up. I don’t know who you’ve offended, but you need to apologize immediately.”

“Uncle Mo, can’t you intervene?”

Xiao Mingyue’s face turned pale as she bit her lip.

“I’m afraid I can’t. I’ve been warned that if I get involved, I might lose my position,” he said helplessly.

Click.

The phone slipped from her hand.

Xiao Mingyue sat frozen in shock.

She had heard rumors about Xu Hao’s connections before, but she hadn’t paid much attention.

Now, she understood what they meant.

In a matter of hours, her billion-dollar company was on the brink of collapse, and even her well-connected uncle couldn’t help her.
