"System, what is the status of the world progress?"- He Míng asked his system as he rummaged at the documents and different things that the original owner's body owns inside the Student council office.
[Fox: Story progress at 65% Beware, Host! The reversal of the Characters' fate is at average difficulty, please do your best!
The system will also issue a notice if we meet the character Host of the bug! Good Luck Host!]- The Fox cheered for him before going quiet above his head, letting He Míng do his game plan.
Looking at the mission lists on his side, he needs to get familiar with the characters the body of this owner already encounters, knowing that the story progress is already at 65% it means the ML is already poor and the couple was beyond saving.
"Whose the most valued character here in this Mission World?" He Míng asked the system.
[Fox: The Male lead and the couple]
".... Can I leave that golden thigh? Or... kill her?"- He asked the system again.
[Unnecessary killings of characters will not affect Host's points, however, if the three specifically mentioned characters died, the mission will be considered as FAILED.]- The System told He Míng who was ready to get out of the office.
'Then let's go down to business,'- He Míng left the office and went to his first class.
Ling Wǔshì is one of the most handsome males at K City University, his aloof and stoic expression as well as his good looks makes the females around him treat him like a King.
In closed doors, they never thought that their 'King' is a sugar baby. The Golden Thigh he was clinging on was the Sunny Queen of the D City University called Lalaine Brookes. She is a foreigner and captured the hearts of many Chinese people and she is a student training to be an actress.
The two met when Ling Wǔshì and Lalaine had a blind date, instead of being together like normal couples, their face value was so high that money needs to draw the line between them.
Lalaine is actually a year younger than Ling Wǔshì but she told him to act as the younger ones in the relationship to make her comfortable. Ling Wǔshì agreed and used her fame and money to win the election that just happened yesterday before He Míng arrived.
He Míng looks at his phone as he sat on his seat near the window on the third column of the seating arrangement, and sees that he have a scheduled date with Lalaine this weekend. His ears attentively listening to the gossips around the classroom
"Did you guys heard the news? Takeru Furukawa's family got bankrupt last night!"
"Yes, it was really awful, now that they're facing a financial crisis, I wonder what he will do?"
"How could a three-generation worth Company get bankrupt in a day? It sounds so impossible!"
"It's not if you dig deep under the roots! Look! So many criminal records?! Unbelievable!"
He Míng just gaze at them all chatting together when the topic himself arrived at the door.
He looks.... so different. The students inside the classroom felt like looking at a different person. He wasn't in the prim and proper style like he used to show in front of the whole university. Takeru was hunched, with his uniform all crumpled and messy. Unique blue-colored hair tied in a short ponytail. One look and everyone knew he gone from a fight. He was in wearing an angry expression, glaring at whoever was looking his way and gossiping about him.
"What?! What are you all looking at? You think all of you are high and mighty just because my family fell from elite society? Don't make me laugh! We'll get back at our feet! Just you wait!"- His voice was loud and irritable as he glared at everyone inside the classroom.
The once curious students turn their stares with hostility towards Takeru Furukawa. He Míng only stared at him while he turns everyone's opinion about him upside down. He wonders why is this ML a bit dumb, but then again, it doesn't concern him, and just like that, the bullying starts.
"Ha? Did you hear that, everyone? The poor lad was spewing nonsense! His mind must be very empty. Hahaha!"- One guy started the parade and everyone else followed.
"Oi, do you think you have enough resources to stand back up and land in the elite society? Hah! Stop making us laugh!"
"Don't you think, he's just trying to act tough? Heh, with dirty records under their coattails, Hey, Furukawa, you look so disgusting."
Takeru's pride was being stomped down by others; he gritted his teeth as he glared menacingly at them, the look of ridicule and disgust was so apparent on their faces, he both felt fear and resentment. However, he cannot express it here in the university, or else they will bully him further! These guys were always with him when he has so much money, but now that he has nothing, they started to trample down on him and tarnish his reputation.
"Everyone back away! Didn't you hear from the news that his family committed crimes? Maybe he will kill us if we further provoke him! Hahaha!" The classroom was very noisy and disorderly, it is starting to make He Míng irritable.
'So he's the ML... Pathetic.'- He Míng thought and look at his bright hair color. He rested his chin to his palm while tapping the desk in a soundless rhythm.
'System, did the task specifically told me to stay with this ML every day?'- He Míng felt a bit troubled. Not because the ML is also handsome but because of the weekends. It was already good that there in the same class, and ML won as the vice president before the reversal happened but... The day after tomorrow will be Saturday, how will he do that mission?
[There is no deduction if you didn't fulfill it in a day or two, it will transfer to the next day so instead of three hours a day, it'll be six hours the next day.]- The system told him and he nodded.
'I think that's more troublesome, I'll look for a way'- He Míng said and the class started.
Takeru could feel a deep stare on his back and felt uncomfortable when the professor isn't looking, he looks behind only to find his President, Ling Wǔshì, staring outside while playing with his pen. He did this fifteen times already and felt like he's making himself tired and a fool out of himself.
"At the self-study time, help me do a draft for an upcoming event,"- Ling Wǔshì suddenly spoke close to him that made him flinch and meet his gaze with a glare. Takeru was shocked inside, The President and he were not close, why is he suddenly talking to him?
He Míng saw him look back at him with a frown on his face, Takeru clicked his tongue before looking in front again. Amusement was clear to see in Ling Wǔshì eyes, however, his expression didn't change at all.
When the professor left, it was time for self-study. He Míng took his silver-colored shoulder bag and tapped Takeru's shoulder who grabbed his hand in reflex, both were staring at each other.
"Why is that Furukawa holding Ling Wǔshì's hand for? Is he planning something?"
"Shh! Stop spouting nonsense! Do you want to look bad in front of President Ling? Shut up."
Murmurs could be heard around the classroom but neither of the two was talking. Takeru was actually waiting for Ling Wǔshì to pull away, he didn't expect the guy won't do it. Everyone has a bewildered face while they were looking back at Ling Wǔshì.
'Hey, System,'
[Fox: Yes?]
'...Why does this character smell like fresh soil?' The smell was like an unearthed soil after a dew, a bit sweet to smell, but also a bit uncomfortable for him to inhale.'
[Fox: What? ML does not have that kind of scent!]
He Míng bore his expressionless eyes into Takeru Furukawa in an eerie way that the guy felt unsettled. With a sigh, Takeru let go of his hand and put on his backpack.
"What else do you want? After this, I'm leaving."- Takeru said not looking at Ling Wǔshì's way.
"Goodness, why is that guy talking without manners?"
"Did you already forget, poor people also have poor etiquette,"
He Míng cannot stand the loudmouths of the classroom, he turns around and faced the two females.
"Don't you think you're consuming less oxygen than you exhaling carbon dioxide?"- Ling Wǔshì asked them that made everyone quiet and stared at them.
"If you all have nothing else to do, then at least ace your exceptional poor grades that even poor scholars can excel on. Your families' money will one day run out, knowledge, however, stays."-Ling Wǔshì bent down and stared at the girl with a poker face.
"So next time you insult others, use more flowery words, Pathetic."- Ling Wǔshì then stood up before walking out, dragging Takeru with him by the sleeve.
"Wow... he looks so handsome! His voice is so cool too!"- A female classmate shouted!
"My heart is beating like crazy at the moment!"- Another female classmate said holding her hands against her heart.
"AHHH!!! I'M SO LUCKY! I CAUGHT A PICTURE OF THEM IN ONE FRAME!"- One female classmate sitting after Ling Wushi's desk shouted in frenzy making the female classmates turn to her and ask for a copy!
"SHARE IT! I'LL ADD IT TO MY KING'S ALTAR!" Female Classmate 1
"SEND IT TO ME! I NEED TO LICK IT IN HARDBOUND!"-Female classmate 2
"AHH! AHHHH! I NEED TO PUT IT IN KING'S MAGAZINE!"- Female classmate 3
The boys glumly look at the females and curse their looks for not being at the same level as their two handsome classmates. All forgotten what Ling Wǔshì told them.
