The Strategy For The Yandere Movie Queen Failed And Was Marked. Chapter 10
byThe morning sun streamed into the room through the gaps in the curtains. Su Jin sat up, her head feeling heavy and muddled.
She rubbed her temples, trying to clear her mind, but the System’s prompt sounded like a sharp knife, instantly shattering her peace.
“New mission issued: Stimulate Ye Qinglan’s Pheromones gland during filming, causing her to enter her heat cycle. Mission success reward: twenty million. Failure will result in an electric shock Punishment.”
“Are you insane?” Su Jin’s voice trembled, squeezed out from the depths of her throat. “Ye Qinglan is an Omega. Don’t you know how dangerous a heat cycle is for her? If this gets out, her reputation will be ruined! I… I can’t do this!”
The System’s voice was devoid of emotion: “Host, this is a mission. You have no choice. If you refuse to execute it, I will take over your body directly.”
Su Jin’s nails dug deep into her palms. The pain brought her back to her senses slightly.
She recalled the feeling of helplessness the last time the System forcibly controlled her body. The fear of being stripped of her autonomy sent a chill down her spine.
But this mission was too cruel. How could she harm Ye Qinglan?
“I… I can’t do it,” Su Jin whispered.
The System’s voice grew colder, echoing as if from an abyss: “Host, don’t force my hand.”
Su Jin didn’t respond again, simply getting up to wash and dress in silence.
In the mirror, her face was ashen, dark circles under her eyes. She looked utterly exhausted.
Arriving at the Film Set, Su Jin saw Ye Qinglan already standing in the shooting area from a distance. She was wearing a well-tailored white silk suit, her long hair casually draped over her shoulders. She looked cool and elegant.
Su Jin watched her, a wave of guilt and sorrow washing over her.
Today’s scene was a confrontation between Zhou Yu and Lin Xia. The plot involved Zhou Yu losing control due to jealousy and anger after Lin Xia was intimate with someone else and rejected her advances, leading Zhou Yu to forcefully pin her against a wall and interrogate her. According to the script, Su Jin needed to cup Ye Qinglan’s nape with her hand, getting close to her Pheromones gland, in a threatening posture.
When filming began, Su Jin walked up to Ye Qinglan as scripted and cupped her nape. Their distance instantly closed.
Su Jin’s fingers trembled slightly, her heart struggling.
She knew that if she applied even a little pressure and stimulated Ye Qinglan’s Pheromones gland, she could force her into her heat cycle.
But her fingers remained still, merely resting lightly on the spot.
“Cut!” Director Lin’s voice rang out. “Su Jin, your emotion isn’t there! Zhou Yu is in a state of maddening jealousy right now. Your hand needs force, and your eyes need to be ruthless!”
Su Jin gritted her teeth and responded softly, “Understood, Director Lin, I’ll try again.”
The second take began. Su Jin cupped Ye Qinglan’s nape again, her eyes showing a hint of internal struggle.
The System’s voice sounded in her mind, laced with threat: “Host, don’t test my patience.”
Su Jin bit her lip, whispering back, “I won’t do it.”
The System’s voice turned cold: “Then don’t blame me.”
The next second, Su Jin felt a strong current shoot up her spine, instantly spreading throughout her body. Her body stiffened abruptly, her fingers involuntarily tightened, and she uncontrollably leaned forward, pressing heavily against Ye Qinglan.
Ye Qinglan clearly sensed her abnormality and asked in a low voice, “Su Jin, what’s wrong?”
Su Jin clenched her jaw, enduring the pain of the electric shock, her voice trembling: “I… I’m fine.”
The System’s voice sounded again: “Host, this is the final warning. If you still refuse to execute the mission, I will take over your body directly.”
Cold sweat broke out on her forehead, but she still refused to yield: “I… I won’t do it.”
The System’s voice became utterly cold: “Then don’t blame me.”
The next second, Su Jin felt her consciousness being forcibly stripped away, her body completely out of her control.
Her fingers tightened sharply, her nails almost digging into the skin of Ye Qinglan’s nape.
Ye Qinglan’s body stiffened slightly. She quickly raised her hand and gripped Su Jin’s wrist, her voice icy: “Su Jin, what is wrong with you?”
Su Jin’s body, controlled by the System, curled into a strange smile, and it didn’t forget to deliver the line: “Haven’t you always been so aloof? I’d like to see how long you can keep up the act.”
Ye Qinglan’s eyes instantly sharpened, watching Su Jin warily.
Su Jin’s body, controlled by the System, applied force again, attempting to stimulate Ye Qinglan’s Pheromones gland.
However, Ye Qinglan reacted faster than she expected.
She quickly raised her hand and delivered a chop to Su Jin’s nape.
Su Jin’s body instantly went limp. The System’s voice sounded in her mind, tinged with annoyance: “Host, you brought this upon yourself.”
The next second, Su Jin’s consciousness completely plunged into darkness.
When Su Jin woke up again, she found herself lying on a hotel bed, her head still feeling groggy.
She rubbed her temples, recalling what had happened earlier, a wave of fear washing over her.
“System, are you still there?” Su Jin asked tentatively.
The System’s voice sounded coldly: “Host, your behavior this time was very disappointing.”
Su Jin gritted her teeth and whispered, “I won’t do such immoral things again. Ye Qinglan is innocent; I can’t harm her.”
The System’s voice carried a hint of mockery: “Host, do you also want to save her like that idiotic Strategist before? Impossible. In this world, everyone has their own destiny. You can’t change anything.”
Su Jin didn’t respond again. She simply sat up silently, her heart heavy with complicated emotions.
Just then, a light knock sounded on the door.
Su Jin paused, got up, and opened the door, finding Ye Qinglan standing outside.
“Film Empress Ye, why are you here?” Su Jin asked, feeling a little guilty.
Ye Qinglan’s gaze swept over her face, her voice calm: “Su Jin, let’s talk.”
Su Jin’s heart sank abruptly, and she unconsciously clenched the hem of her clothes.
She knew Ye Qinglan must have noticed something.
But how was she supposed to explain? Should she say she was controlled by a System and forced to complete missions? Or should she say she had been struggling all along and didn’t want to hurt her?
“Film Empress Ye, I…” Su Jin opened her mouth, but the words wouldn’t come out.
Ye Qinglan walked into the room, closed the door behind her, and kept her eyes on Su Jin: “Su Jin, your behavior on the Film Set today was very strange. What exactly is wrong?”
Su Jin’s throat felt constricted, and a wave of bitterness washed over her.
She lowered her head, her voice so soft it was barely audible: “I’m sorry, I…”
The System’s threatening voice sounded: “Host, if you expose the System’s existence, you will be completely erased.”
Tears suddenly welled up in Su Jin’s eyes, her voice choked: “I… I’m sorry. Please believe me, I never intended to hurt you.”
Ye Qinglan looked at her, a complex emotion flashing in her eyes.
She reached out and gently wiped the tears from Su Jin’s face, her voice low: “Su Jin, although I don’t know what happened to you, if you need help, you can tell me.”
Su Jin felt a warmth in her heart, mixed with even more guilt. Ye Qinglan was such a good person; why did the plot have to force her to be Corrupted? She truly couldn’t understand.
She looked up, gazing sincerely at Ye Qinglan: “Thank you.”
“You’re welcome.” Ye Qinglan paused slightly, then smiled: “Get some rest. I’ll be going now.”
Su Jin watched Ye Qinglan leave, her heart unable to settle for a long time.
She knew she couldn’t continue to be led by the System. She had to find a way to resist.
Outside the room, Ye Qinglan’s expression suddenly turned cold and serious. She frowned and said, “System, did you find anything?”
“The anomaly detected in Su Jin earlier today was likely due to her receiving Punishment for violating the System’s command.”
A flicker of heartache crossed Ye Qinglan’s eyes. “Did she refuse the command to harm me?”
“It appears so,” the System replied. “After all, she is bound to the System that executes the NPC mission plot. However, Su Jin’s refusal of the System’s command proves that she is the master. Her behavioral patterns highly align with the master, especially when facing moral choices; they are almost identical.”
A hint of murderous intent flashed in Ye Qinglan’s eyes. She clenched her fists, her nails digging deep into her palms.
“System, I can’t wait any longer,” Ye Qinglan whispered, her voice filled with suppressed anger. “Every time I see her being tormented, I wish I could immediately destroy the thing controlling her.”
The System advised: “You must be patient. Only at the moment the System is about to complete its mission can the energy I devour be maximized. That is the best time for us to counterattack. Acting rashly now will only alert the enemy and could even put the master in a more dangerous situation.”
Ye Qinglan’s breathing quickened slightly, her chest rising and falling unevenly.
She knew the System was right, but she couldn’t bear to see Su Jin forced and harmed repeatedly. The image of Su Jin’s pale face and trembling fingers on the Film Set flashed in her mind, causing a sharp pang in her heart.
“But… how can I let Sister know that she doesn’t need to hurt herself like this for me?”
Ye Qinglan, usually calm and composed, was close to losing her rational thought.
The System said, “You can give the master some hints, making her understand that she doesn’t need to confront the System directly. After all, the plot for the master’s role is all about ‘seducing’ you. For you, this should be a desirable outcome.”
Ye Qinglan’s thoughts were exposed, and a trace of awkwardness flashed across her face, but she quickly regained her composure.
She suppressed the anxiety in her heart and said, “You’re right. I was impulsive. I should find a way to give Sister a hint, so she doesn’t try to fight the controlling System head-on.”
Ye Qinglan turned and walked back toward the room, a plan already forming in her mind.
