1514 I’m Very Helpless Too! (2/2)

Many of the people who'd recognized Xu Que were suffering from pangs of jealousy. They were mostly men.

In a place like a university campus, someone like Xu Que could almost be called a public enemy of all the other men. He was a little too good-looking and also a top student. He also had a terrible, shameless character. Once he'd decided to make a move, most of the girls frankly found it difficult to escape his clutches.

However, from the time when Xu Que had been a freshman, he'd had eyes only for Lin Yuxi from the moment he'd arrived on the campus.

As one of Lin Yuxi's many suitors, Xu Que had become a little famous. Many people felt that his success rate was comparable to that of the Xia family's young master, Xia Luoqing

Xia Luoqing was the young master of a renowned family in the country's capital. He was outstanding and distinguished and also one of Lin Yuxi's most ardent suitors. Both he and Xu Que were close to Lin Yuxi.

After all, everyone on campus with eyes could see that although Xia Luoqing's material conditions were superior to Xu Que's, it seemed as if he'd had fewer chances to get close to Lin Yuxi. Instead, Xu Que had always been able to grab a seat next to Lin Yuxi in class. He'd also been able to first grab any book that Lin Yuxi wanted to read from the library and then wait for Lin Yuxi to come find him and ask for it. Even during mealtimes in the canteen, he'd been also able to be thick-skinned enough to sit at the same table with Lin Yuxi and all her female friends.

His key asset was his mouth. He was able to make Lin Yuxi and the other girls laugh again and again.

Therefore, many people couldn't ignore Xu Que's existence. He was an influential figure on the campus.

But at this moment, many people felt that there was something fishy about this scene, and they were overwhelmed with curiosity when they saw him walking with an exceedingly beautiful girl in period costume on campus.

”Where are you taking me?” Xuanyuan Wanrong spoke up and asked Xu Que.

She'd found that there were more and more people around, and everyone's eyes seemed to be focused on her and Xu Que. All these people were gossiping about them, and Xuanyuan Wanrong wanted to find out what Xu Qu was planning to do.

”Obviously, we need to go rent a room,” Xu Que replied hastily without turning his head back to look at her. The streets that were around the back gates of the campus had a lot of restaurants and hotels.

But when he'd answered her, he'd spoken in such a loud voice with no attempt at concealment that it had reached the ears of the countless students who were milling around.

No one who'd heard his words was very surprised. After all, Xu Que was known for being shameless, and everyone knew there wasn't much that he wouldn't be capable of saying. The guy was probably making a joke.

However, Xuanyuan Wanrong looked confused and asked, ”Why are you renting a room?”

”Didn't you say you wanted me to quickly like you? In our world, the fastest way to start to like a person is to rent a room. To rent a room means we let each other trust one another fully, talk freely about life, gain in-depth understanding of and deeply explore each other.” Xu Que explained all this with a straight face.

Xuanyuan Wanrong suddenly nodded and breathed a sigh of relief, ”I see, very well, you've made a very wise choice.”

”What?”

Hearing this conversation, the nosy people who'd been listening in on their conversation stared wide-eyed in disbelief.

”What is wrong with this fairy sister?”

”Don't tell me she really doesn't know what it means to rent a room...”

”What the f*ck, Xu Que you animal, you're actually tricking her to bed and also doing it so openly and publicly?”

”What? To let each other trust one another fully, talk freely about life, gain in-depth understanding and deeply explore each other,...can this deceitful filthy scumbag be any more shameless?”

”Goddess, don't be cheated by him. He's taking you to rent a room just to take advantage of you.” Finally, a boy on the scene couldn't help but shout.

Of course, the minute someone took the lead, others naturally followed suit and shouted at Xuanyuan Wanrong also.

”That's right, this guy is not a good man.”

”Fairy sister, don't be fooled!”

”Xu Que, how can you be so shameless? Haven't you been courting Lin Yuxi? And now, at the same time, you're making love with someone else?”

”Quick, whoever knows Campus Belle Lin's phone number, better let Campus Belle Lin see the true colors of this beast.”

Everyone yelled indignantly at the injustice of it. Most people did it out of jealousy, pure and simple.

Xu Que smiled. It was only because the System beep had just rung out in his mind. He had gained more than 20 Acting Tough Points.

He couldn't understand how his own System was gone from the world of his memory, but it had been replaced with a replicated version of the System. Everything seemed to have been restarted, and more than 20 Acting Tough Points for him at this time could be said to be a substantial sum of money. He could casually exchange the points for things, and it would be enough to crush many mortals.

Still, it was not enough.

The corners of Xu Que's mouth curled up into a smile as he looked at the crowd and shouted, ”My fellow schoolmates, don't get agitated and don't misunderstand what is going on here. This is really not a matter of me falling in love with someone else, nor am I fickle. But this big sister insisted on sticking to me, telling me that if I don't like her, she will die together with me. What can I do? I'm very helpless too!”
