Arc 1.4
'Whitewashing the egoistic youth'
Wen Shu woke up early in the morning as he prepared for the day. When the Van they are currently in, arrived at the orphanage the nun and the head of the establishment greeted them warmly while informing the kids about the event. Wen Shu was silently staring at the children lining up for the wrapped gifts to be given.
He have two reasons to choose this orphanage. First of all this orphanage barely have any funds or donations, even charity was hard to come by. Seeing the state of the place, of course he could easily brush up an increase in his reputation. Second, one of the little brother of the male leads friend is currently staying at the orphanage, by doing this he could build up a tsundere-like image. Also it have a slightl chance to increase his reputation when the male lead hears about his good deeds.
With the thought of his reputation increasing, Wen Shu released a low giggle, making others who saw this flush due to the sight of the angelic face with a smile. But what they didn't know was that inside his head is the same image but with a shit eating grin.
'Hehe I'm really smart, hitting two birds with one stone'
"Young Master Wen, should we commence on giving of the gifts?" The Head of the orphanage asked him, breaking Wen Shu from his stupor. He slightly blinked, a bit startled then smiled again.
"Sure, then I'll trouble the head for assisting us" he replied while walking side by side with the head.
"Oh its nothing, thank you for this gift donations young master Wen"
The gift giving commenced, the children all lined up based on the height, you can see various emotions fleeting on each kids faces. Some are anxious, excited, happy, and a bit worried that they wouldn't be able to receive some gift.
While the crew was distributing the gifts, Wen Shu decided to help on it too. With extreme patience, he walked with two big plastic bags on his hand containing gifts.
He kneeled in front of the kids with a gentle smile in his face. He started giving out the stuffs inside the plastic bags to the kids and after giving the gift everyone of them receives a head pat that makes them giggle.
The others watching him couldn't help but release a satisfied sigh.
[ ding! Villains current reputation : 30! ]
When he saw the notice on the screen, Wen Shu's smile became bigger, with a cheerful aura exuding out of his body.
It took five hours for them to finish the gift giving and it was around 3 pm when they returned to the mansion. He immediately headed towards his room and dove in his bead releasing a tired sigh. He can feel his muscles aching, when they attended the orphanage earlier he never get the chance to take a seat, he remained standing the whole time.
Now that he thought of it, it was a miracle that his knees didn't give up earlier. With his head buried in the soft pillow, Wen Shu lamented on the fact that his body is weak. When he tried exercising and stuffs he thought that his stamina would go up a bit, but later on he learned from the system that his body stats would remain default since his level is still not hight enough.
He continued grumbling until unconsciously his eyelids started to drop and he fell asleep due to the accumulated fatigue.
It was already past 6 when his eyes fluttered open when he heard the familiar ding ringing in his head. Wen Shu raised his eyes drowsily, while trying his best to read the notice.
[ Ding! Side task: Save the female leads brother! Rewards: 20 Omni points, 50 Exp points! ]
[ 20 minutes from now, the female leads brother would be crossing a road and would accidentally be hit by a car! ]
His eyes widened and all his drowsiness vanished when he read the info. Hurriedly he went outside the room and rushed outside of the house without notifying his guards and butler.
' system where is his current location? '
[ Please follow the arrow in front of you host, it will guide you to your destination ]
A green arrow appeared in front of him, and without any second thoughts, he ran to the direction the arrow was pointing as he anxiously stared at the count down on the side of the screen.
It was only 10 minutes left until the said accident but he was still a hundred meters away from his supposed to be saved target.
He started picking up his pace even though he felt that he was getting out of breath and his lungs might give up on home any second. Not to mention his aching calfs and thighs. They were throbbing in pain, add the fact that he stayed standing for 5 hours and now he's running like crazy, putting much pressure and stress on his tortured legs.

When he arrived, he spotted a kid with bag of groceries on his hand while stepping in the cross road. Without further ado, Wen Shu grabbed the hand of the little boy in the arm which startled the little boy. A few seconds later a truck speedily drove in the road where the kid was supposed to be if he hadn't arrived in time.
The little boy in his arms stared at the road shocked. Thinking that he should've been minced meat right now, if it weren't for the stranger that saved him.
Wen Shu panted as he let go of the boy in his arms and he supported himself while clutching his knees. Damn he really could feel that his legs is starting to give up.
"Ar-are you alright?" He asked the dazed boy Infront of him.
"I'm fine. Thank you for saving me mister" the boy in front of him replied.
Wen Shu sighed a breath of relief. If he was late for a few seconds, this kid would've been lying in the pavement by now in his pool of blood.
"Ah chun!" A female voice called out behind them.
"Sister?" The boy in front of him asked as a female silhouette rushed in front and grabbed the boy.
"What happened?. . ." A deep voice emerged behind him. But Wen Shu doesn't have the energy to even turn his head as he breathed shakily with his body trembling.
With dark spots clouding his sight everything turned black as his body fell due to fatigue. The last thing he remembered was being caught in a pair of strong arms.
Yo Sun was shocked while hugging the unconscious body of Wen Shu. His mind was currently in chaos about what to do.
"Hurry call an ambulance!" He yelled at Chi Nong.
She immediately called an ambulance. A few minutes later an ambulance arrived and carried Wen Shu inside. While the doctor was assessing and stabilizing the condition of Wen Shu. Yo Sun was silently sitting on the side with his heart beating madly.
He doesn't even know what's happening on him right now. Currently he can hear a voice chanting in his mind, praying for Wen Shu's safety. He was clouded with worry that he doesn't even know what to do.
Just a few days ago after his encounter with Wen Shu everything that's on his mind was the boys' image. It occupied his mind that he even wanted to bang his head on the wall just to erase it. It irritates him so much that he cared for his supposed to be enemy.
Yes, that's right ladies and gentlemen. He 'cared'. For these past few days, he was thoroughly confused as to why he was constantly thinking about the boy so he consulted his best friend, Chi Nong. Actually he wasn't in love with Chi Nong, but when he heard that a certain young master with a scum attitude has taken a liking to his best friend. He decided to help by faking his courtship to Chi Nong.
He have a slight affection to the boy. That's what Chi Nong said after he consulted her. That was when he was enlightened. And it just happened that the one he cared for just passed out in his arms making his mind go crazy.
While waiting outside the room, Yo Sun couldn't help but grab a fistful of his hair.
"Hey, everything's gonna be fine. Calm down" Chi Nong comforted him while rubbing his back.
'yes, that's Right. I should calm down. I mean why am I overreacting. As far as I know, I only slightly care about him. And yet— argh f*ck'
He heaved a heavy sigh then as he calmed down he smiled towards Chi Nong. "I'm calm now, thanks"
"It's nothing, what's more important now is what the hell happened?" She asked while staring at her little brother for information.
"Well, you see I was done buying groceries and then suddenly when I was walking to the crossroad a stranger grabbed my hand and hugged. At first I thought it was a pervert but then after a few seconds a rushing truck came speedily on the road. I could've been minced meat now if not for the stranger" Ho Chun said with his head down as he fondled his fingers explaining the whole thing. For a 11 years old kid it was a bit much for him that happened.
Both Chi Nong and Yo Sun was stunned when they heard this.
[ Ding! Villains current reputation: 45!]
Meanwhile Wen Shu, who was currently oblivious to the outside world was comfortably sitting on the sofa inside the systems space.
"Woohoo! 55 reputation points left to advance to the second world hehehe" with a shit eating grin he cheered while holding a can of soda.
When he blacked out earlier, he was already transferred inside the system space when he opened his eyes again.
The system sweat dropped from his hosts easygoing attitude.
[Host would you need anything else?]
"Ah yes, give me my laptop" after saying this a laptop suddenly appeared in his lap. He started checking all those projects and business that he invested.
His eyes glowed when he saw the amount of money that was constantly rising. He laughed out loud while clutching his stomach. Hahahaha. Money is life. For a finance student like him money is their oasis in the desert. It's their salvation.
Back in his world he invested on some small projects since he doesn't have much money. With those successful investment he lived a good life. He constantly deliver cash to his family on their hometown in the suburbs.
Speaking of his family, he missed them so much. Wonder if they would react once they know that their son is dead. Wen Shu's eyes dimmed down with this thought. He really misses his family.
The system, after reading his hosts thoughts couldn't help but feel sympathy.
[ Don't worry host, after you collected one million points you can choose to return on your own world ]
His eyes slightly shimmered when he heard the systems comfort. " Wait I thought that after collecting a million points I can only choose between reincarnating or to continue world hopping?"
[ Hehe, I saw the advertisement that the administrator released a few days ago. If I upgrade into a level 3 system I can have that function. So continue to work hard host ]
Wen Shu's mood instantly brightened up with a newfound goal and motivation. He will work hard, he really will. While he was enjoying inside the space. A certain someone was worried to death while watching his unconscious body.
Yo Sun grasped Wen Shu's hand while sitting on a stool beside the hospital bed. He was starting intently at the unconscious boys' features. He noticed that the boy had long eyelashes that formed a fan. his brown hair that looks soft, making him want to touch it. His button nose with a tinge of pink on the tip that makes people want to pinch it, luscious red heart shaped lips that glistens.
Everything about the boy screams attractive. His lips twitched. Wait what the hell is happening to him. Why is he attracted to the other boy. This is really dangerous.
He was brought out of his dazed state when the hand, that smooth and plump hand of the boy slightly tightened, grabbing his larger hand. Wen Shu's eyelash fluttered and his mouth slightly opened revealing a row of white teeth and pink tounge.
Yo Sun stared dumbstruck o n the boy in front of him. Tofu. He wants to eat tofu. Just now his little brother down there reacted while he stared at the boy in front of him.
He gulped several times then decided to relieve his self on the bathroom. While he was doing his self he couldn't help but bitterly cry inside his mind. Is he turning into a pervert now since he had a reaction by just staring at the unconscious boy.
'Wen Shu, you better take responsibility for this'
