Quick Wear: Welcome to the Crazy Scene

Chapter 22: The True and False Jinli’s High School Bully (21)

"It's nothing. If I don't tell you, it will make me look like I'm pretending."

Gu Xue's eyes returned to gentleness. She looked at Shen Jin with apology and gratitude, and her words were full of self-mockery, as if she was torn apart.

"Thank you."

Another thank you.

Shen Jin didn't say anything, picked up a cherry from the fruit bowl and put it in his mouth.

If nothing unexpected happened, it had something to do with Gu Xue herself. What was it about her that would be so unacceptable to the Gu family?

Why would you rather offend the Shen family than tell them?

Shen Jin pondered and gave Gu Xue ample time to think about it. She actually didn't care about the answer.

If I get it, I'm happy to have it, fulfilling a certain desire to collect. If I don't know, it doesn't really matter. The plot has already developed to this point, so I'll just let it go.

As for reputation, she really didn't care about it.

"I have a quirk."

Shen Jin had thought she still needed to prepare herself mentally, but those four words resounded like thunder in the room. Her fingertips tapped the tabletop, her face remaining calm, but she mentally asked the system, "Is there any relevant plot?"

It has been a while since the plot was sent over, but Shen Jin was busy with other things, so the content was all extracted by the system.

The system was also confused for a moment, and the light was running rapidly, probably comparing the plot.

After a moment, he replied, "No, host."

"Is that the protagonist's mutation?"

The system did not answer, temporarily disconnected, and no one knew where it went. It only left a short message: "Host, please wait. I need to verify the situation."

"Yeah." Shen Jin nodded and turned his attention back to Gu Xue.

Explaining one's "sins" was a heavy task. Even though Gu Xue had prepared herself mentally, her voice still trembled.

She closed her eyes, as if playing dead and escaping, waiting for Shen Jin's decision. However, her eyeballs rolled and her eyelashes trembled, with fear and imperceptible luck.

After a long time, Shen Jin did not ask any further questions.

Gu Xue opened her eyes uneasily, and suddenly met her eyes which were as gentle as a spring night, and saw her reflection in her pupils.

Embarrassed and cowardly?

No, I can't tell.

In Shen Jin's eyes, she had always been the same. Gu Xue suddenly understood the look in her eyes.

Subconsciously speaking: "I want cherries."

......

Shen Jin was rarely confused. Could it be that she was eating so deliciously that Gu Xue had to interrupt her busy schedule to have another one?

Without waiting for an answer, Gu Xue took a fruit from the plate quite proactively.

Shen Jin naturally found the fruit delicious. The fruit was deep red in color and large in size.

Gu Xue pinched it with her fingertips and rubbed it.

With a slight force, juice splashed out and stained her fingertips.

Shen Jin clearly saw the redness and struggle in Gu Xue's eyes. Perhaps she knew what Gu Xue's "quirk" was.

"Am I ugly?"

Gu Xue threw the broken fruit in her hand into her mouth and sucked on her fingertips, like a little animal, not a human.

"I like blood." Gu Xue swallowed, then said, "And then all the red sticky liquid."

"So, that night, Mr. Gu and Mrs. Cheng saw me slashing the rabbit's blood dry..."

Gu Xue had thought she'd moved on from the shadow of that day, but now, thinking back, she realized the memory had always lingered deep within her mind, like a high-definition camera recording.

Once again, she saw the disgust and hatred in their eyes. Her voice trembled with anger: "Gu Xue! What are you doing!"

Gu Xue's body, squatting on the ground, trembled slightly and she turned around in disbelief.

Why, why are they here?

Because she was too shocked, her mind went blank subconsciously, and she pushed the body parts on the ground behind her, trying to cover them up.

The result was an even sharper howl from Mrs. Cheng.

Gu Xue finally came to her senses and realized the current situation. She took a step forward and tried to find a reason and explain herself.

But as soon as she took a step, Mrs. Cheng pointed at her and said sharply, "Pervert, don't come over here!"

Pervert. Are you talking about me?

Gu Xue suddenly felt the world was hazy, and a strange halo rose in her eyes. She spread out her hands and saw blood on her jade-white fingertips.

The glaring look almost blinded her eyes, and the smell of blood was detected by her brain belatedly, lingering around her nose, making her almost nauseous.

At this moment, Gu Xue was holding her head in her hands, huddled on the table, without any energy at all.

Shen Jin frowned. This shouldn't be the case.

She thought of the couple almost instantly.

"Gluttony..."

Two characters with a unique rhythm came out from her throat. Although she didn't speak, the sound struck deep in Gu Xue's mind.

Shen Jin had already stood up from his seat and walked to Gu Xue's side.

"Gluttony."

Shen Jin seemed to be calling.

At this time, Gu Xue also raised her head and looked at Shen Jin with confused and tearful eyes.

She clearly saw the strange symbol embedded deep within Gu Xue's pupils. It was the mark of a curse.

She snapped her fingers, waking Gu Xue from her trance.

"You're tired," Shen Jin said, gazing into Gu Xue's eyes. Deep within her pupils, a strange, dark silver light shone, not very bright, but chilling.

However, the chill on Gu Xue was not biting, but rather like melting spring ice, which only served to refresh her.

"I'm tired." Gu Xue repeated, her eyes slightly closed, and she really looked a little tired.

"Have a good sleep, little one."

"sleep."

Shen Jin carried the person back to the room.

"We will do our best to meet Miss Gu's requirements. Also, no one is allowed to enter until she wakes up."

"Yes, ma'am."

After making arrangements for Gu Xue, Shen Jin floated back to his room in a daze and began to sort himself out.

That familiar breath was not an illusion, but really appeared.

So, how did they escape, live in the body of the protagonist of the small world, and try to change the plot?

The system finally arrived: "Host, I'm back!"

"Hmm." Shen Jin wasn't in high spirits. Originally, they were suppressed, and she was happy and free to be a person. It must be said that the gap between the two was one of the sources of her happiness.

Now, the source was gone. Not only had they escaped, they were also trying to destroy the world. She could almost foresee the end of her idle life.

The system seemed to be considering it. It actually didn't want the host to get involved in these things too early. However, who knew that she was so unlucky and saw it just after she started the mission.

I'm lucky now that I didn't have to fight against the "evil spirit" directly...

"Host, do you still remember the part about additional tasks in the mission rules?"

System testing.

Shen Jin knew what it wanted to say and thought its cautiousness was unnecessary. However, thinking of her ignorant identity as an ordinary worker, she still frowned and said, "Remember."

He acted ignorant and scared, befitting his newcomer status.
