Arc 2.0
'whitewashing the narcissistic student'
None of them talked about what happened at the parking lot. They both treated it as if the topic was Pandora's box itself.
With a beet red face, Wen Shu almost planted his whole body on the car door.
Yo Sun on the other side didn't know what to do. So he just decided to stay silent.
A few minutes later, Yo Sun couldn't help but took a glimpse at the side, coincidentally Wen Shu also decided to peek at Yo Sun's reaction.
Both a pair of onyx and amber eyes met.
Yo Sun ". . . ."
Wen Shu ". . . ."
Both broke off the awkward eye contact and continued doing what they were doing earlier. Wen Shu face planting on the car door and Yo Sun driving quietly.
But a small smile formed on Yo Sun's lips when he saw the others red ear.
Wen Shu heard a low chuckle and there he saw Yo Sun smiling. He almost blew up then and there.
'what? Is he laughing at me?! Ah! I almost want to dig a hole and bury myself'
Almost burning up with shame, Wen Shu glared at Yo Sun. "Y-you Why are you laughing?"
Wen Shu cursed himself when his voice stuttered. Why does this happen to him every time. Always stuttering.
Yo Sun felt nostalgic with the current scenario. It's almost the same as when he confronted Wen Shu at his aunt's bun shop. He sure is a big d*ck back there.
"I'm not laughing, I just thought that you're cute" Yo Sun replied and smirked at Wen Shu.
Wen Shu raised his brow at the statement he just received, he crossed his arms " excuse me? I just want you to know that I'm not cute, cute is too soft for me, and also Handsome is more befitting to describe me"
"Well you're the boss" Yo Sun replied curtly. Immediately appeasing the hissing kitten beside him.
Wen Shu humphed and raised his chin proudly as if showing off his victory.
'you're still cute'
Yo Sun stated in his mind after seeing the brunettes reaction.
After those exchange of words, silence loomed upon them once again and the awkward atmosphere came.
Wen Shu stared outside the window, trying his best to endure the awkwardness he's feeling. Unconsciously he brought his hand up and lightly touched his lips.
Yo Sun who kept observing the other guy saw the blank look on Wen Shu's face.
[ Ding! Villains current reputation: 97! ]
Wen Shu was startled when he saw the notification by the sudden increase of reputation. He stared questioningly at the screen in front of him, trying to discern on which of his actions caused to make a sudden increase in his reputation.
'eh? System what happened?'
[ When things like this happen, there's no need to ask, just be thankful host ]
The system said blandly. Well what else can it say? That the male lead is currently obsessed with his host. And most of the increase of his reputation was also caused by the increasing love the male lead felt for his host.
Ahhh. The system has been seriously thinking that after all of this he would ask for a vacation from the admins. Things connected to humans truly are complicated.
Of course the system doesn't want to lie to his host, but it's afraid that after learning about the male leads feeling for him it would affect his hosts mentality and probably have an impact on him completing his task.
On this. The system just shrugged and decided to just stand aside and watch how all this secrets open themselves.
While inside Wen Shu's head he seriously took his systems reply in consideration and found that what his system said make sense.
He's gonna leave this world after completing the mission anyways. The brunette just shrugged and continued to doze off.
Yo Sun's mood darken when he saw that familiar look in Wen Shu's eyes again.
At first he thought it was nothing but when he observed the brunette in these past few weeks. From all their interactions, he discovered that sometimes- no, a lot of times he can perceive that Wen Shu's eyes contained a glint of indifference and apathy to whatever happens. It's as if he's someone who got no sort of affection or connection on what's happening in this world.
It irritates Yo Sun every time he thought that the other guy never put him in his sight.
Yo Sun clicked his tounge in irritation and tried to shake off those dark thoughts.
After waving goodbye to Yo Sun, Wen Shu walked inside the house and was immediately greeted by the busy maids and his butler.
"Erm, uncle Mo, what is happening? Why are all of you so busy? Did something happen?" Wen Shu asked slightly worried. During his stay in this world he never saw the personnel in the house this busy. Except when he was discharged from the hospital.
"No need to worry young master, we're just preparing a feast because this is your last day in here since you're going abroad and we're all gonna miss you" Mo Heng replied curtly with a smile on his lips, same with the other maids with a smile on their lips too.
Wen Shu felt touched. This reminds him of his family celebrating his birthday.
All of them spent a hearty meal during the evening and Wen Shu hurriedly excused himself after eating and returned to his room.
Feeling the fatigue from all those events from earlier creeping up. He layed down the bed and immediately fell asleep.
The next morning, Wen Shu went to the airport with his luggages.
Meanwhile in Yo Sun's side he decided on inviting Wen Shu to eat buns in his aunt's shop.
"I'm sorry but Young master is currently not here" the guard replied apologetically. Yo Sun was kinda lost when he heard this reply.
He thanked the guard and decided to just go back, but before he took three steps away he was stopped by a maid.
"Wait! Mister!" The maid called out to him. He turned his head and saw a very familiar maid.
"Oh you're the one who sent the juice to us when both Wen Shu and I are talking in the garden?" Yo Sun asked.
"Y-yes. Uhm. You see I heard that you were supposed to invite young master and I find it weird" the rotten maid replied feeling intimidated by the pair of onyx eyes staring at her as if it can see through her.
"Why is it weird?" Yo Sun asked seriously staring at the fidgeting maid in front of him.
"Eek! Wait don't take it the wrong way, I mean it's not weird for you looking for your boyfriend- eek! Uhm I mean. Y-you see what's weird is you're looking for young master even though he's heading abroad. To New York. Didn't he inform you about those stuff?" The rotten maid almost want to bang her head on the pavement when her tounge slipped and accidentally said boyfriend. What if their relationship was supposed to be a secret!
Yo Sun suddenly froze when he heard the maids reply. Wen Shu? Going abroad?
The rotten maid tilted her head when the guy in front of her turned silent.
"Thanks for informing me, I gotta go see my boyfriend" Yo Sun patted the maids shoulder and immediately went to his car and drive towards the airport.
After arriving bat the airport, Yo Sun dashed through the crowds and tried his best to find that familiar figure that was engraved in his mind.
'there he is!'
Yo Sun exclaimed in his mind when he saw that very familiar back walking with the flow of passengers to the plane.
He tried his best pushing his way to the crowd while calling Wen Shu's name.
No matter how he tried. Yo Sun just couldn't get through the crowd. Slowly the distance between the two grew farther and farther.
Yo Sun helplessly raised his hands and tried to reach out for that very person entering the plane.
After a few minutes. Yo Sun stood still and watched as the plane goes off. He silently retreated and went home.
Inside his room Yo Sun stared at the pic of the brunette in his phone. His eyes turning dark.
When he have time to ponder earlier about his current state. His mind cleared up about matters concerning him and Wen Shu.
Right now he's just a lowly commoner without even a single property. So what if he followed Wen Shu to states. The gap between the both of them is so big.
He steeled his resolve and with great determination. He decided to slowly shorten the gap between both of their status until both of their standing in the society are the same.
With a calm mind Yo Sun stared outside the window staring at the stars.
'ho, so the little kitten decided to be naughty and venture out on his own. Next time we meet I'll be sure to always grasp you in my hand. . .'
" . . .and I'll never ever let you go" he chuckled deeply as he stared motionless bon the dark sky above.
. . . . . . . . . .
On the other side. Wen Shu stared at the system screen questioningly.
Written on the screen are. . .
[ The current plot is under going time lapse, asking host to transfer to the second world ]
Eh? If he remembered it right the current reputation points is only 97. Then why?
'system explain this to me'
[ Host, it means that the next progress of the plot will be several years later. Of course you can choose to either stay here and wait for several years or move on to the second world, also it doesn't mean that you've already completed the first world. After the time lapse you will be sent back to the first world to finish the mission ]
Wen Shu nodded at the systems reply. Of course he wouldn't ponder over these
Choices for long.
"Go to the second world!" Wen Shu exclaimed. That way he can rack up Omni points faster and return to his own world in no time.
[ Are you sure, host? ]
"Affirmative, now let's go" a familiar dash of light entered through his eyes and everything went black.
Wen he woke up again he was currently standing in the middle of the hallway. The body he was in was staring at the bulletin board with student rankings posted up.
'system give me the plot'
[ In this world the female protagonist is named Li Ma, she's an orphan but she was gifted with an intelligent mind. She have no difficulty in entering Tianzhou college. The most renowned college for raising excellent students with high IQ's. She earned her scholarship but her college life didn't go well since she's a commoner. Some aristocrats students bully her when they felt like it. But one time she was saved by the worlds male lead, Yo Han. The male leads personality is gentle. He was the role model in the school since he always ranked as top of the whole college, while Li Ma is ranked on third place. one day at the library Yo Han got stuck in solving a mathematical equation. Li Ma coincidentally saw these and helped Yo Han in solving the equation. From this time on both of them started studying together and feelings started to bloom ]
Li Han's lips couldn't help but twitch when he saw the typical teen romance plot.
'then who's body am I occupying?'
[ Lou Shan, he was always top two from the students ranking. He's always focused in being no 1. He's vocabulary when talking to people is quite limited but when he comment to others he would often call them stupid or idiot. In short Lou Shan has a narcissistic personality and garners a whole bunch of hate from other students. But the school can't do anything to him since he's second to Yo Han plus he's very intelligent. Not to mention that he's a son of an aristocrat. ]
' so that's it? All I have to do is renew Lou Shan's image to others? Phew! I'm glad that he's not connected to the male and female l-' before Li Han could finish his sentence. The system once again started to set out words.
[ Also Lou Shan hates seeing both the Li Ma and Yo Han acting all lovey dovey instead of focusing on their studies. He harshly criticized both their relationships which ended in him committing suicide from all the hate he received from other students who supported Li Ma and Yo Han's relationship. In the end Lou Shan is innocent. He was just a naive boy who poured all his passion in studying he hates the fact that people are wasting their time in all those love and nonsensical things instead of trying to broaden their wisdom and knowledge ]
