I Became the Rich Second-Generation Villain - Chapter 308: Little Chick: This Game Is Too Damn Hard

With a grin on his face, Wang Haoran claimed his rewards, then quickly queued up again with Xu Muyan for another match. To his amusement—and perhaps fate’s twisted humor—they matched with “Little Chick” yet again. This time, however, they weren’t on the same team. They were enemies.

Wang Haoran raised an eyebrow but quickly shrugged it off. It made sense. As the villain, teaming up with the female lead Xu Muyan was already a contradiction. It was entirely plausible that, due to her Female Lead Halo, Xiao Ye had been drawn to her side in the previous game. And now, with his own Villain Halo in play, the game’s matchmaking system likely threw Xiao Ye to the other side.

“Miss Muyan, looks like we’re matched again,” Xiao Ye typed out boldly during the champion selection screen, messaging in the all-chat with a cocky flourish. “But don’t worry—even though we’re enemies this time, I’ll go easy on you.”

Xu Muyan didn’t bother replying. She had no interest in feeding his delusions.

Undeterred, Little Chick sent another message, this time clearly directed at someone else. “Zhang Fei,” he typed, “we’re enemies this round. Guess you can’t throw on me anymore, huh?”

Wang Haoran chuckled softly. How adorably naive. Did this kid think sabotage required being on the same team? If there weren’t any actors available, couldn’t you just hire them?

In a game like this, money could buy you anything—including betrayal.

The moment the game loaded in, Wang Haoran wasted no time. He quickly messaged all four of Xiao Ye’s teammates in private.

No planted actors? No problem. Just rent them. And when it came to crushing protagonists, Wang Haoran had no issue throwing a bit more cash around.

Little Chick, full of hope and ready to shine, locked in Mai Shiranui—an agile, high-skill champion with tons of outplay potential. He was determined to make a highlight reel.

Wang Haoran calmly chose King of Lanling.

The match began, and just six minutes in, chaos reigned.

Little Chick’s teammates? All hired hands.

They fed first blood, gave away buffs, and delivered blue and red jungle camps to the enemy like gift baskets. And then—just six minutes into the match—Xiao Ye witnessed something that nearly made him drop his phone: a fully-geared King of Lanling, decked out with six completed items.

He was speechless.

Sure, Mai Shiranui had potential for flashy plays—but against a preposterously overgeared assassin like that, she wouldn’t even survive long enough to blink. Every time she appeared, she died. There was no time to “show off” anything.

Wang Haoran hunted him relentlessly, pushing King of Lanling into a godlike streak while Mai Shiranui floundered with death after death, dragging down the entire team’s morale.

Defeat was inevitable.

In his rented apartment, Xiao Ye finally snapped. With a roar, he hurled his phone to the ground. The screen cracked on impact.

First-person shooters? Full of trolling teammates. MOBA games? Teeming with undercover saboteurs.

This game was just too damn hard.

【Ding! Host successfully orchestrated protagonist Xiao Ye’s defeat. Gained 1200 Villain Points. Xiao Ye’s Protagonist Halo -60, Host’s Villain Halo +60!】

【Ding! Host damaged protagonist Ye Qiu’s mental state. Gained 800 Villain Points!】

Wang Haoran collected another wave of rewards with a satisfied smirk. Then he queued up for another game with Xu Muyan.

This time, however, there was no sign of Little Chick.

Without a protagonist to torment, the match was boring. Wang Haoran quickly ended it and went through the motions.

“You’ve only been playing for a few days,” Xu Muyan said over voice chat, wonder in her voice. “How are you already this good?”

“This game’s too easy,” Wang Haoran replied casually. “As long as you’ve got hands, you can play it. If I weren’t this good after a few days, wouldn’t that just mean I’m useless?”

Xu Muyan was at a loss for words.

She always thought she had natural talent in games. But compared to Wang Haoran, she was clearly still a tier or two behind.

“The more time I spend with you, the more I realize how unbelievable you are,” she sighed softly. “You can do magic tricks, play piano like a maestro, and now you’ve got insane gaming skills too. You’re always surprising me.”

“Oh, I’ve got more impressive talents,” Wang Haoran said with a subtle chuckle, his tone dripping with hidden meaning.

“More?” she asked eagerly, her voice lighting up. “Tell me! I want to know!”

“That’s for later,” he teased. “You’ll see for yourself soon enough. Just be ready for it, mentally.”

His mischievous grin was audible even through the mic.

Xu Muyan paused, something about his tone raising alarm bells in her head. Her voice turned cautious. “Wait… Has Qin Yunhan already seen it?”

“She’s seen it long ago,” Wang Haoran said breezily, no attempt to hide it.

That reply hit like a brick.

Xu Muyan finally understood why he was grinning like that earlier. Her gut had been right. That shameless minx Qin Yunhan really had gotten the first taste!

【Ding! Host triggered jealousy in female lead Xu Muyan. Gained 500 Villain Points!】

“I’m going back to streaming. Not talking to you anymore,” Xu Muyan said, voice laced with annoyance.

“Fine, don’t talk,” Wang Haoran shrugged. “I’ll hang up then.”

“Wait.”

“What is it?”

“I… I actually… I mean, I’m mentally prepared. So… You do what you want.”

Her voice trembled slightly. Part defiance against Qin Yunhan, part driven by something deeper. Under normal circumstances, she’d never have been able to say something like that.

The second she finished, she was overwhelmed by embarrassment and immediately ended the voice call.

【Ding! Host successfully encouraged female lead Xu Muyan to take the initiative. Gained 1000 Villain Points!】

Wait, this earned rewards too?

Wang Haoran blinked in surprise. Then his mind wandered.

Should he follow through with Xu Muyan’s “mental preparation,” or let it sit for now?

After a few moments of mental tug-of-war, he shelved the decision. For now, he had other matters to attend to.

Like finding Xiao Ye.

Based on their interactions in-game, it was clear that Xiao Ye was the kind of protagonist who focused on streaming and gaming. That made tracking him down relatively easy.

Wang Haoran started by searching Xiao Ye’s username—“Little CHick”—across major streaming platforms.

Before long, he found the stream archive on Douyin. The stream had ended not long ago, and the records showed the last session’s duration and timestamp.

With that data in hand, Wang Haoran quickly confirmed that this was Xiao Ye’s stream. If he registered as a streamer, there had to be real-life traces left behind.

Activating his top-tier hacking skills, Wang Haoran broke into the platform’s backend and pulled Xiao Ye’s personal details—ID photos, current residential address, and more.

Finding Xiao Ye now would be child’s play.

Conveniently, he lived in Qingling, not far from the university district.

Wang Haoran set out that same night.

As he stepped into the cool night air, he couldn’t help but mutter under his breath.

First that online tycoon Lin Feng was in Qingling. Now this streamer-type protagonist Xiao Ye is also in Qingling. What is this, some kind of protagonist hotspot?

Too much of a coincidence. Then again, maybe not. After all, Qingling was crawling with female leads.

If anything, it made perfect sense for there to be a lot of protagonists here.

Like a dog chasing a meat bun, some laws of attraction were simply universal.
