《 Campus Chapter: The Cold Scholar 》 

“Wuwu, Xixi, I’m so thirsty.” 

With her head buzzing, dizzy and swelling, You-You licked her dry lips with the tip of her tongue and opened her eyes reluctantly. 

 The first thing she saw was the hot sun hanging high in the sky, and You-You’s nose twitched at the smell of grass and earth, which was a bit astringent.

【 This body has heat stroke. 】 

【 Host, Xixi will now transmit the original host’s memory, the world’s data, and mission content to you, please bear with me for a while. 】 

【It’ll be quick, just a minute. 】 

Xixi’s gentle voice made You-You more determined to earn points. She grasped the grass in her hand, silently enduring the pounding in her brain. After a minute, You-You’s forehead was sweating. 

“My task is to earn Mu Qing-Xue’s favor?” 

Uncertainly muttering the text on the task panel, You-You was dizzy from the sun and almost absent-minded. She wriggled and tried to get up from the ground, but found herself weak and unable to stand up after several attempts.

Having embarrassed herself, You-You was now on the verge of tears. 

According to memory, the original owner of this body skipped class, and at this time of day, no one would wander around the campus casually. 

“Xixi, I think I am going to die of heat stroke.” 

If no one finds her, she will surely die. 

【The female lead is here, the host can ask her for help. 】 

Female Lead Mu Qing-Xue? Which personality will she like? A White lotus, Little Lord, Woody, Green Tea or Cold? …With a flushed face, You-You listened carefully to her surroundings. Sure enough, intermittent footsteps came after a few seconds. 

There’s someone coming. You-You turned her head and looked at the sound source urgently, looking up, then higher, and nearly got lost in a cold, bottomless pool. 

This is Mu Qing-Xue? 

 You-You was a little surprised. 

Unlike the thin pictures in the memory fragments, the real Mu Qing-Xue is more beautiful and colder. When she realizes that this person is the one she wants to leave a good impression on, You-You’s face becomes even redder, full of embarrassment and shame. 

The soft and delicate girl lay on the green grass; even in ordinary school uniform, it was difficult to hide her beauty. Mu Qing-Xue’s eyes faintly lingered on the girl’s red face and exposed slender waist for a few more moments. Mu Qing-Xue pursed her lips, and a gloomy light passed through her eyes silently. 

“Bai You-You, what are you doing here.” 

With a rigid voice, it seems that this person is inaccessible like the legend; she is a lonely cold scholar. 

Without discovering Mu Qing-Xue’s veiled look, You-You stubbornly gestured to Mu Qingxue to look up at the hot, poisonous sun in the sky. 

“I accidentally fell asleep here, and then got heat stroke.” 

Sniffling, You-You looked at Mu Qing-Xue pitifully. 

“Mu Qing-Xue help me up, I don’t have the strength now, it’s so uncomfortable.” 

Mu Qingxue: “….”

She wants to help her, only, she wants to ravage her more, what to do?

Fourteenth, do you have a kind of power that makes people weak, plus chest tightness, shortness of breath, and vomiting blood?

    For some people, direct threats are more deterrent than (dark) rhetoric questions, because they are afraid of death, very afraid of death.

    【I do. 】

    Cool!

    Su Xin whistled in her heart. The system’s functions sound very powerful. If you can always use this skill to threaten people, isn’t it something awesome?

    [But there are conditions. 】

    Fourteen slowly followed their previous words.

    Su Xin snorted inwardly, and she said there is no such good thing, there is no such thing as a free lunch.

    Sure enough, the bill is coming right away.

    [If you use it once, you will deduct 1/12 of your life. 】

    Profiteers! Profiteers!

    She did a task, not to mention how long it would take, her time and energy, she could only get a year’s time, so using this ability once would deduct 1/12 of her, Su Xin felt that her heart was bleeding.

    This is exploitation, this is a behavior that only vampires can do! Worry about socialism! This is an abominable bourgeoisie! Won’t your conscience hurt?!

    [No, my conscience does not hurt, we systems do not need a conscience. 】

    Su Xin began to think about other methods, which are more feasible. If she can’t cheat with the ability of the system, then she can use her own force. Although her physical fitness is not as good as before, it can even be said that it is far inferior, but her means are still there.

    Although she is a first-rate killer, Su Xin will not be able to change her face, nor make a human skin mask, nor can she use medicinal materials to make any poison. Don’t blame her, she  can change her external image through makeup, but this world does not have lipstick, no eyebrow pencils, no eyeliner, no high heels. All of them were things she used to change her appearance.

    There is also poison. If she uses this thing, she uses the latest researched biological medicine. She is not a Chinese medicine doctor, so how can she use medicinal herbs to make things happen?

    However, Su Xin is very good with weapons. As long as she is given a weapon that she can take advantage of, it is very simple to threaten a person without force.

    Su Xin suddenly thought of a question. Since this is an ancient plane and the ancient plane of China, does that mean that there is internal force?

    [Yes, host, there is. 】

    Su Xin’s temple twitched and she rubbed her hand.

    Fourteenth, besides obtaining health points by completing tasks, what other methods do I have to get things? You see if I use it once, you have to deduct my life, then what method do you have for recovering it? Tell me.

    【……There is. 】

    The host is not stupid. Fourteen is a bit regretful. They like the kind of host that is not very smart but a little smart. There are always those who are smart and want to use their loopholes to get their own benefits, but they are too stupid and can’t do it. Tasks, and the inability to communicate normally, greatly affects the process.

    any solution?

    [Trigger various tasks. If such a task is triggered at that time, I will definitely tell you. After all, this is a mutually beneficial thing, and I have no need to harm you. 】

    Fourteen’s mechanical voice sounded in Su Xin’s mind.

    Fourteen, you said that I have to use my own vitality to make this kind of thing. Can you give me a little something?

    【What? 】

    Pills! It’s a kind of pill that looks like poison and tastes like poison. Otherwise, what would I threaten someone with?

    A red round pill appeared in Su Xin’s palm.

    Thank you Fourteen.

    [You’re welcome. 】

    Su Xin returned to Ta Yan’s door, raised her hand and knocked on the door.

    “Who?”

    Ta Yan’s mood was obviously not very good, and everything she said was full of anger.

    “Mom, it’s me, Xue Yao.”

    “Come in.”

    There was a moment of silence in the room.

    “What’s the matter? Don’t think about making any other excuses with me. You can’t escape the day after tomorrow. Don’t be delusional.”

    “I want to show my mother something.”

    “What?”

    Su Xin slowly approached, Ta Yan sat up straight, but was caught off guard by something.

    Produced by the system, it must be unique.

    The little red pill melted in the mouth, Ta Yan subconsciously retched, but couldn’t vomit anything. Her mouth was filled with a sweet and greasy taste, disgustingly sweet.

    “What did you feed me?”

    “Mom didn’t agree with me, so I had no choice but to make a bad move.”

    Although these were not open and honest means, these kinds of things do not need to be open and honest. Su Xin doesn’t think she is righteous, but she is only unscrupulous for her own purposes, not to mention that the pill is not really poisonous.

    “Mom, this kind of medicine is special. Don’t even want to know what it is called and how to explain it. I don’t need you to do anything for me. I don’t need you to spend a lot of money on me. I just need to keep my virginity.”

    “Hmph, white-eyed wolf, who knows what you gave me.”

    I don’t know if it is real or psychological, but Ta Yan felt very uncomfortable in her mouth, nauseated, but couldn’t vomit it out.

    This is the behavior of a white-eyed wolf, Su Xin chuckled at the corners of her mouth. After all, after she came in, she had spent more than ten years here without any particular harsh treatment, let alone being hungry, although the life she lived was not considered generous. But it’s also plain.

    “Mom, I won’t hurt you. This is just a helpless move. When I succeed in the future, I will return to my mother a hundredfold and cure you.”

    Su Xin bends over Ta Yan.

    “You thought I would believe it? Stupid.”

   Ta Yan frowned.

    “Mom, do you feel dizzy, chest tightness and want to vomit, but you will feel weak in a while.”

    Su Xin hurriedly urged the system to start, and Ta Yan did indeed have the conditions Su Xin said one by one.

    Ta Yan was shocked, clutching her chest.

    “Mom, I hope you can cancel the plan for that day as I told you.”

    Su Xin closed the door and left, there was still the faint scent of her powder in the room.

    Ta Yan sat and thought for a long time, and sighed unwillingly.

    “Girl! Girl! How did you provoke your mother? Mom wants to punish you!”

    Shu Quan hurriedly knocked on the door.

    “What’s happening?”

    Su Xin looked out the window and retracted her gaze.

    “Mom is going to downgrade you to the second floor, my God, how can this be done?”

    In this brothel, those with some status are on the third floor, and Su Xin lives in the best room on the third floor, and the second floor is very mediocre, serving those who don’t have much money.

    Su Xin moved to the second floor from the third floor. Many people must be gloating.

    “It’s okay, just go, I have my own arrangements.”

    Su Xin comforted Shu Quan and gave her a simple smile.

    “Miss, how can I not be in a hurry, Miss obviously…it will be just…”

    Shu Quan hesitated and couldn’t continue.

    “I have arrangements, why are you crying?”

   Shu Quan started crying when thinking of her Miss, making Su Xin feel a little helpless.

    “I- I’m worried for Miss.”

    After all, being on the second floor is not a good fate.

    “Shu Quan, I want to participate in the Feast of the Four Kingdoms.”

    “What?”

    Shu Quan’s lips opened slightly and her eyes widened.

    Feast of the Four Kingdoms; she couldn’t even think about how Miss suddenly had this idea.

    “Even if it fails, I still have to try. Shu Quan, I am not reconciled to stay like this forever.”

    Su Xin wiped away the tears from Shu Quan’s face with her handkerchief, facing Shu Quan’s eyes.

    Shu Quan stopped crying and gave Su Xin a big smile.

    “Yes, Miss is the best in Shu Quan’s heart, Shu Quan serves Miss, regardless of life or death, I will follow Miss!”

    No matter what Miss’ decision is, I am her favorite person to follow her for life, Shu Quan thought.

    “Silly girl.”

    Su Xin looked back and continued staring outside the window, unintentionally meeting someone’s eyes.

    Su Xin could tell at a glance that she was disguised as a man, and she was not smart, and so was the little girl around her.

    [Host, friendly reminder, there is a traversing person not far away, who is the daughter of luck, and friendship with her is favorable to the task. 】

    Oh? Is she?

    Su Xin looked at the girl who was disguised as a man.

    【Yes. 】

    Su Xin smiled at her, shining brightly, and then withdrew her eyes, turned her head and disappeared in front of the window.

    “Miss, what are you looking at, let’s go back, it’s so strange.”

    Hong’er pulled He YunShu’s sleeve.

    I don’t know what’s going on. The mad lady suddenly became sane, and then she got rid of the wicked servants. Today she wore men’s clothes and came to the street with great interest and said she wanted to visit the brothel.

    What brothel to visit? Is that kind of place for the Liang family’s Miss to go?

    He YunShu ignored her, still a little surprised.

    It was just a startling glance, and the same line of sight was met. The owner of those eyes had a bright face, and her eyebrows were full of whispering style, and then she smiled at her.

    Like a pebble falling in the calm lake, forming ripples.

    She’s so beautiful, the kind that I can’t look away, it turns out that this is an ancient beauty. He Yun Shu is very emotional.

    Speaking of it, this should be a brothel, so the very beautiful woman just now is a woman in the dust, He Yun Shu feels a little sorry.

    “Okay, Hong’er, don’t nag anymore.”

    He Yun Shu helplessly stopped her maid’s chattering.

    “Miss, let’s go back quickly.”

    “Hong’er, do you know who lives in that room?”

    He Yun Shu pulled the corner of Hong’er’s clothes.

    “The room on the third floor… is Miss Xue Yao.”

    “Hong’er, didn’t you say that the Liang family’s Miss is not allowed to discuss such things? How do you know who lives in that room?”

    He Yun Shu winked.

    “No, Miss, Miss Xue Yao is a very good person. She has helped many people. She is a clean woman, but I have heard that Miss Xue Yao is going to… The slaves and maids don’t know, oh Miss, let’s go back to the manor.”

    “Okay, okay, let’s go back.”

    In ancient times, how can you not visit the brothel, but He YunShu thought about it and a brothel is more interesting at night.

    Xue Yao…The name flowed from He Yun Shu’s mouth, interesting.
