After Transmigrating into a Novel with My Boyfriend, He Turned Out to Be a Native Villain
Chapter 208: It's Hiding, Not Lying

Hearing Little System suddenly ask such a tactless question, Yu Li’s gaze turned surprised. She stared at it for a while. “Are you hiding something from me?”

“...Huh?”

Was it that obvious!!? ∑(O_O；)

Little System’s chip trembled, and the light on its body flashed wildly. “H-ha, no way! I was just asking randomly.”

It didn’t even dare look at Yu Li’s expression and could only pretend to be casual: “Ahh, it’s fine if you don’t want to say, Sis. I mean, I know Bo Jingmo would never do that, hahaha.”

Listening to that exaggerated, guilty excuse, Yu Li just raised an eyebrow slightly and didn’t reply. Her tone held a hint of amusement: “Really?”

“Mhm mhm, yup yup~”

Wuwuwu not at all.

Little System thought Yu Li wouldn’t answer and sighed internally.

Help! It had no idea how to test someone like this T﹏T

Just when Little System was silently disappointed, Yu Li suddenly spoke.

“I don’t know what made you think Bo Jingmo would betray me, but if we’re talking about hiding things—yeah, Bo Jingmo has kept quite a few secrets from me.”

It was instantly shocked. If the System had a rabbit’s body, its ears would be standing straight up right now, eyes sparkling, as if it had sniffed out some huge scoop.

“Sis, what do you mean by that? Does Bo Jingmo lie to you a lot?”

After Little Shadow finished its task, Yu Li reached out and grabbed it. Hearing the question, she chuckled and said, “Lie? Bo Jingmo wouldn’t lie to me. What I said is—hide.”

Hiding and lying are two very different things.

In fact, they’re completely opposite.

“He probably hid something from me again and doesn’t dare to tell me.” Yu Li’s tone was one of casual reflection. “He’s always been like that. I’m used to it.”

When he had an episode, he wouldn’t tell her.

When he cut his hand while cooking, he wouldn’t tell her.

When people called him crazy, and he was deeply upset, he still wouldn’t tell her.

Even when he got jealous, he wouldn’t tell her.

Bo Jingmo was afraid of losing her. He lacked a sense of security, so he’d automatically filter out anything negative and only show Yu Li his good side.

Yu Li didn’t understand why at first, but after coming to this world and seeing Bo Jingmo’s past,

She thought she might’ve figured it out.

Maybe it had to do with his childhood. His father demanded that he hide his illness and was extremely harsh on him. So after growing up, he instinctively feared being rejected.

Thinking of her silly boyfriend, Yu Li lowered her gaze. The corners of her lips curled into a soft smile. Her tone indulgent: “If he wants to hide things, let him. As long as it’s nothing major, he’ll tell me eventually.”

Hearing that, the System was so stunned it couldn’t speak for a long while.

If you really examine it... everything Bo Jingmo had done was hiding, not lying.

He hid from Yu Li the fact that he brought her into a novel world.

He hid that he sold his own memories.

He even hid that he unknowingly destroyed a novel world.

And the reason he could keep hiding all of it...

Was because Yu Li didn’t want to ask.

She clearly knew, yet chose to give her little boyfriend space—wait for him to be willing to tell her himself.

Thinking about that, the System paused, then cautiously asked: “Sis… what exactly counts as a major thing?”

Because... what if you were actually the villain of this world, who destroyed a world and crossed dimensions just to be with your lover—would that count as a major thing?

“You mean a major thing…” Yu Li thought about it briefly, then smiled and patted the System’s head.

“Only cheating counts!”

System: “………”

Okay… seems like that’s really not something to worry about…

After all, that crazy man would rather die than leave his wife behind.

At that moment, the System’s originally tangled emotions completely vanished, and it felt enlightened.

And only then did it finally realize—the Film Set System was wrong.

Yu Li would never get mad at Bo Jingmo over this kind of thing.

Back when she first transmigrated, the System had already told her Bo Jingmo was the villain of this world.

And Yu Li’s reaction was—

‘Doesn’t matter, he’s still Bo Jingmo. I’ll find him first.’

If she really wanted to leave, she would’ve found a way out on the very first day.

But the truth was, Yu Li didn’t care where she was, as long as Bo Jingmo was there too.

In that sense, she and Bo Jingmo were exactly the same.

Neither of them wanted the other to leave. Their possessiveness of each other bordered on obsessive.

Somehow, the System felt infected by them. It even thought—maybe this wasn’t wrong at all.

It should’ve never listened to that damn Film Set System! It nearly dragged it down too! Now it was going to tell on it to Sis!!

And it was going to recover the deleted screenshots!! Show them all to Sis!!

Just as the System was ready to go all in, Yu Li suddenly spoke again: “But, about what you said earlier—that Bo Jingmo might team up with the players—that’s actually very possible. But don’t worry.”

The System blinked. “Why not?”

“Because it’s a necessary step.” Yu Li stepped through the door, her tone relaxed. “If a demon wants to succeed, they first have to gain the humans’ trust.”

She pushed open the stairwell door and walked up step by step. Her ethereal voice echoed faintly in the pitch-black stairwell.

“Didn’t I say? This instance has two gods. Since I’m one of them, I’ll make Bo Jingmo the other god. Either way, there’s no way he’ll side with humans.”

System asked: “But isn’t he human? Isn’t the instance BOSS already confirmed?”

Her footsteps paused. The woman stood at the sixth floor entrance, her hand slowly placed on the doorknob.

At the question, she narrowed her eyes. Her fox-like eyes shimmered with sly brilliance in the dark. Her smile was gentle but cruel.

“That’s why.”

“I’m here to kill a god.”

So what if there’s already a god? If she wanted, the BOSS of this instance could be changed.

Seeing the killing intent in Yu Li’s eyes, Little System was slightly dazed. The words it was about to say got stuck in its throat. It quietly lowered its presence.

Suddenly, it felt… the Film Set System was screwed.

The Film Set System thought Yu Li would get mad at Bo Jingmo, but what if—

She didn’t get mad at all, and instead brought her boyfriend along to slaughter everything in the instance, helping him become the next leaderboard champion.

Then, once they were strong enough, they’d go after the real culprit.

Because this couple… couldn’t be understood with normal logic.
