The Villain's Attack PlanCh30 - Relying on Looks to Make Money

“Collecting junks and scraps~ Exchanging junks and scraps for money~~~”

All the eyes within the great hall gathered in one location. Instantly, the room was filled with boisterous laughter. c1gxqa

“Fuck, what’s going on with that braised egg in the back?”

“Hahahahaha, that loudspeaker is so hilarious.”

“This kind of cheering method is a bit unique.”

Eyes snapping wide open, Wen ZhiChu felt as if his entire person had dropped into a bottomless pit. He hastily put down the huge loudspeaker he was holding over his head and looked for the on-off switch in a flurry. dovJKi

“Exchanging junks and scraps for money~ Collecting old refrigerators and TVs… Qin JiaShu, you’re the best!”

Wen ZhiChu: !

The more nervous he was, the harder his hands shook. In the end, Wen ZhiChu hugged the loudspeaker and ran outside directly to finally put an end to this great mishap.

However, Wen ZhiChu’s appearance also did a very good job at livening up the atmosphere inside the hall.

After Wen ZhiChu exited, he stood in a corner. Finally, he turned off the loudspeaker in his arms. Then he stood stunned in place, as if completely dumbfounded, motionless.

Skycat Genie observed him for a few minutes.

[System: Hi~]

Wen ZhiChu, dumb as a wooden chicken. ex6zMS

Skycat Genie watched as the other stood motionlessly, as if he had lost his soul.

[System: Wen ZhiChu~]

The other remained in place, like an ice sculpture on a cold, windy December night.

[System: Hello, look at me~ What are you~ scared of~] SaNd 0

Wen ZhiChu: ……

[System: Actually, it’s really nothing. Who hasn’t had a humiliating moment before.]

For a second, Wen ZhiChu felt touched. Who would have thought the System would actually comfort him. His little face scrunched up pitifully: “Sky…Skycat Genie……”

[System: A lifetime passes very quickly.] Rvn3xd

“……”

Pretend he said nothing.

Wen ZhiChu stuffed the loudspeaker back inside his bookbag and placed it on his back.

[System: Ding! Mission completed. Reward 100 yuan.] Oc9dZ4

Hearing this, Wen ZhiChu finally felt a smidge of comfort. Although it was humiliating, at least there’s money.

Did this count as depending on looks to make money?

Seeing Win ZhiChu letting out a sigh of relief, Skycat Genie finally said generously: [Who would have thought you’d work so hard to complete a mission. You did great.]

Wen ZhiChu with a numb expression: “Not hard.” kJvfbF

Skycat Genie: ?

Wen ZhiChu looked off into the distance, as if he had experienced the great vicissitudes of life: “Life’s hard.”

“……”

Wen ZhiChu untied the loosened straps of the hoodie, shook his fluffy head, and stood in place, not knowing where to go. igp1Kz

The debate tournament needed at least 2 hours to finish. However, he wasn’t really familiar with this place or the people here. With his cowardly and timid personality, he didn’t really dare to walk around randomly. What if he got lost and couldn’t find his way back? Missing the bus back to his home city would be terrible.

Wen ZhiChu stood there, carrying the bookbag on his back.

[System: Why are you standing here? Pretending to be a statue?]

Wen ZhiChu: “I don’t know where to go.” bPVMna

[System: Go back there. Return to the great hall to watch the debate of course.]

In the end, Wen ZhiChu still snuck back into the great hall. At this moment, Qin JiaShu stood on stage, expressing his standpoint. With his impressive flair, he was practically the focus of the entire audience.

Wen ZhiChu found an empty seat and sat down. Terrified he’d be recognized, he didn’t even dare to breathe loudly.

However, at this time, someone spoke up next to him: “You’re the braised egg just now, right?” diIrv4

Skycat Genie: !

[System: How did he recognize you?]

Wen ZhiChu: “… Because he has eyes.”

Although he didn’t expose his face just now, he didn’t even change the sweatshirt that he wore. Just like this, Wen ZhiChu sat on pins and needles, and awkwardly finished listening to this debate. dUujXH

Because the teacher guiding the YiZhong students around had to verify something with District 6, he told the students who came on the coach bus to first engage in some free time for an hour, and then gather at District 6’s entrance.

After hearing this, Wen ZhiChu nodded and then stuck his butt firmly to his seat, not getting up.

[System: Why are you staying here?]

Wen ZhiChu blinked twice and felt like Skycat Genie was asking the obvious: “Sitting of course.” m45TNB

Can’t you tell?

[System: …… I’m asking why aren’t you going somewhere else.]

Wen ZhiChu: “I don’t know the way. If I go elsewhere, I’m afraid I won’t be able to come back.”

[System: Didn’t you expand your map?] MlKzLH

Wen ZhiChu: “Envisioning something and putting it into practice are two different things.”

Just as Wen ZhiChu planned to sit there listlessly for an hour, he unintentionally glanced in front of him and discovered there was another person sitting there as well, motionless.

Chrysanthemum Garden.

It was none other than his class’s English Representative.

The other’s expression was somewhat hard-pressed and uneasy. She looked around in all directions, as if waiting for everyone nearby to leave. At this time, upon noticing that no one was around, she planned to stand up. However, as soon as she turned her head, she saw Wen ZhiChu and instantly sat back down in her chair with a panicked look on her face. ZBKARo

Her expression was so flustered, she looked as if she was about to cry.

When the debate tournament was about to end, she encountered a sudden issue. The relative, who was scheduled for next week, suddenly came to visit. Sitting in the chair, Mu Qing instantly panicked. For a second, she didn’t even dare to move, afraid that someone would see her. Originally, she planned to leave when there’s no one around. Unexpectedly, when she turned her head, she saw Wen ZhiChu sitting in the back.

Instantly, she recalled the past incident in the classroom, where the other had made fun of her when she was grabbing her feminine product.

With a pale-white face, Mu Qing sat in the chair, her expression more unsightly than crying. GMVl L

At this time, she heard the sound of footsteps. Mu Qing instantly felt her view turn black.

Don’t come over here. Don’t come over here!

However, those white sneakers still stopped in front of her.

She heard a stammering voice talking about her head: “Are…are you okay?” v8touT

For a second, Mu Qing was speechless. It took her a while to reply: “It’s nothing.”

Seeing the other’s unsightly complexion, Wen ZhiChu hesitated quite a while before finally coming up to inquire: “You..you look like, you seem…seem somewhat uncomfortable. Is there…there something… you need help with?”

Although she only had to relay messages for the English teacher, the other still continued to supervise and help him study English daily. She lent him plenty of assistance and was also the only person in the class, besides 2nd-to-last, who actively talked to him.

With an ugly expression, Mu Qing: “No need. You can go.” 1KRTgD

Wen ZhiChu pressed his mouth together and gathered his courage: “No…no need to be courteous.”

For a second, Mu Qing looked up at him, feeling like this person was really very strange. Clearly she was trying to chase him away, yet the other replied, no need to be courteous with him.

Embarrassment and humiliation filled her heart. The other was a guy after all. Mu Qing found it hard to speak and for a second. She was so anxious, her eyes turned red; she felt embarrassed.

However, sitting here wasn’t a plan either. 9gdLej

“Can you help me buy sanitary pads?”

The other’s voice was too quiet. Wen ZhiChu couldn’t hear her clearly: “En?”

Mu Qing closed her eyes and bit the bullet: “My… relative came to visit. I need feminine products.”

When she said these words, she originally thought the other would make fun of her like before and say girls are troublesome. Unexpectedly, Wen ZhiChu didn’t speak for a long, long time. syGdI8

Mu Qing raised her head in bewilderment and saw Wen ZhiChu’s originally fair-white face flushed bright red.

“So…sorry. I…I didn’t know. I didn’t ask on purpose.” Wen ZhiChu instantly turned bright red. Feeling like he had offended her previously, he hastily apologized.

Seeing this, Mu Qing also lowered her head in embarrassment.

Originally, she thought the other wouldn’t help her. Who would have expected, the next second, a school uniform was thrown over her legs. xOtEy7

Mu Qing’s eyes widened.

“You…you take this first. I will help you buy it.” The other’s face was crimson red as he spoke, just like a well-boiled shrimp.

Immediately outside of the great hall, take a right turn, and it’s the bathroom. Wen ZhiChu arranged for the place to meet with Mu Qing and then walked out.

However, he didn’t know the way at all. For a second, he felt somewhat uncomfortable and ill-at-ease. Standing there looking at the crowd coming and going, he didn’t know how to step up and ask for directions. fXvHd1

However, remembering that Mu Qing was still waiting for him, he looked around. Instantly, his eyes lit up. He saw the guide that he needed.

District 6’s old security guard!

After a bumpy session of asking for directions, Wen ZhiChu finally arrived at the supermarket. Then he went to the daily necessities section with a bright red face. When he walked in front of the shelves, he attracted plenty of gazes.

Wen ZhiChu grabbed the brand that Mu Qing told him and hastily ran off to pay the bill. vY3idK

However, there were still 4-5 people in front of him. He could only wait obediently in line.

Holding the item in his hand, Wen ZhiChu was obviously very nervous. The next second, he saw a familiar figure walking over from the side.

It was none other than Qin JiaShu. At this moment, he was holding a bottle of water in his hand with 2-3 people following behind him, clearly ready to come over and pay the bill.

Wen ZhiChu instantly lowered his head and lowered his presence. However, Qin JiaShu coincidentally just happened to stand right behind him. For a second, Wen ZhiChu felt his scalp turn numb. e9fv1l

Without any care or concern, Qin JiaShu glanced at Wen ZhiChu, who was remaining still and pretending to be a quail in front of him. The youth had his head lowered, exposing a section of the snow-white skin on the back of his neck. Qin JiaShu took only a glance before shifting his gaze.

He knew that the braised egg inside the great hall just now was Wen ZhiChu, but he didn’t plan to strike up a conversation. He didn’t actually want to get involved in this troublesome matter.

Although the other had changed somewhat from before, this didn’t actually have anything to do with him.

He didn’t know if Shen Jun’s claim about Wen ZhiChu’s secret crush on him was true or not. However, even if it were true, he didn’t follow the logic of needing to treat the other well or feel anything special towards the other, just because the other had a secret crush on him. wCFdrl

He had plenty of crazy pursuers and had seen plenty of methods and tricks of all sorts. Wen ZhiChu wasn’t actually anything special.

When it was finally his turn, Wen ZhiChu placed the item on the counter and received a stunned look from the cashier: “For your girlfriend?”

Wen ZhiChu instantly stiffened from head to toe. The gaze behind his back felt burning hot. He frantically took a glance at Qin JiaShu and then hastily shook his head.

However, this motion, in Qin JiaShu’s eyes, seemed as if Wen ZhiChu was terrified that he’d misunderstand or something. ocX27s

Watching the panic-stricken expression on the person in front of him, for a second, Qin JiaShu was reminded of the fat orange cat in his grandfather’s home. When caught stealing food, it would also reveal the same expression.

Wen ZhiChu swiftly paid the money and ran out hugging the item. He dashed wildly all the way back to the great hall.

Then he very cautiously stopped in front of the bathroom door and sent Mu Qing a message.

Mu Qing had been waiting next to the sink counter all this time. Seeing the WeChat message, she hastily came out of the bathroom. At this moment, Wen ZhiChu’s school uniform was wrapped around her waist. yHotKm

Seeing her come out, he handed the item to her like he was transmitting a secret military missive.

Mu Qing gave him a thankful look and then walked back into the bathroom.

When she came out again, it was 10 minutes later.

“Hey um, thank you.” With reddened eyes, Mu Qing thanked him. hEmSoK

Wen ZhiChu felt somewhat embarrassed: “It-it’s nothing.”

“Really, thank you very much for today.” Mu Qing continued to express her thanks. However, because it really felt too shameful, tears swelled up in her eyes. She has always had a quiet and introverted personality. Right now, her heart was filled with embarrassment and unease.

Seeing this, Wen ZhiChu instantly panicked and became somewhat flustered: “Don…don’t cry.”

Unable to hold back, Mu Qing burst into the tears: “How embarrassing wuuwuuwuuwuu.” DaEXje

“It’s…it’s not anything embarrassing. It’s a normal phenomenon.”

However, these words of comfort made the other cry even harder.

This was the first time Wen ZhiChu encountered a girl crying; he didn’t know how to make her feel better.

“Skycat Genie!” reipxW

[System: What?]

“What do I do?”

[System: You ask me, who do I ask? It’s not like I’m a communication expert.]

“……” Wen ZhiChu: “I don’t know how to make her feel better.” N3QsU

Skycat Genie fell silent for a while.

[System: She should be crying out of feelings of humiliation.]

Wen ZhiChu: “Then should I tell her a humiliating story?]

[System: What kind of plan is this?] JMCUsc

“Fighting poison with poison.”

[……]

Wen ZhiChu: “Can I?”

[System: Well yes, but……] KebVwA

Seeing Skycat Genie wanting to say something but hesitating, Wen ZhiChu asked: “But what?”

[System: Where to start.]

Wen ZhiChu: ?

[System: You have too many humiliating stories to count.] ahBKQJ

“…….”

For a second, Wen ZhiChu also couldn’t come up with one. However, seeing the other crying with such anguish, he was really at wits’ end. Yet if he had to tell humiliating stories, it’s still quite shameful.

[System: Young man, a lifetime passes very quickly! Don’t forget, you’re a righteous and fervent member of the Communist Youth League!]

Such a huge cookie. 5HjZOi

Wen ZhiChu took a deep breath and the carefully touched Mu Qing’s shoulder: “Did…did you know?”

Startled, Mu Qing looked towards Wen ZhiChu with reddened eyes: “What?”

With a numb expression on his face, as if he was very much used to it, Wen ZhiChu said: “Actually… the braised egg just now was me.”
