Chapter 159 157. Men on Top of Men
“Damn coin system! You screwed me over again!”
“The competition clearly got sponsorship and could be held, yet you still counted my task as a failure in advance!”
Cursing nonstop, An Han arrived at the large plaza in front of the dormitory complex. At this moment, quite a few students had already gathered there, setting up the stage for the esports competition.
A huge screen, a small stage, plus two long tables large enough to hold five computers each.
It was a bit crude, but for gaming enthusiasts, this was a rare grand event.
Competition posters were everywhere in the plaza. The students from the esports club were skillfully setting up the stage. The first match would be held tomorrow, so they had to finish the setup as early as possible.
Besides this stage, recruitment booths for other clubs around the area were still ongoing. An Han guessed that this competition was also part of the esports club’s recruitment activities.
“What, you want to sign up too? Registration ended a long time ago.”
An Han turned her head and saw Wang Yu standing beside her with a cold expression, not knowing when he had arrived.
“I’m just passing by to take a look.” She subconsciously showed a bit of a smile and cast her gaze back toward the stage, her tone teasing. “Your performance yesterday was pretty good, mm.”
“……”
Wang Yu kept his mouth shut. Although there was no embarrassment or shyness on his face, his silence had already exposed his inner emotions.
“How many girls’ WeChats did you get? How many people are planning to join the esports club?”
“Mostly guys.”
For some reason, even though Wang Yu’s favorability toward her hadn’t increased, he was talking more than before.
Could it be that he discovered her female identity? Or in Wang Yu’s eyes, had she already become a girl?
“Hey, who sponsored the CS:GO competition?” An Han finally brought up the real topic. “It’s not Su Peng, is it?”
“A local peripherals manufacturer. Su Peng recommended them.”
So it really was related to Su Peng!
An Han rubbed her temples with a headache.
Did this count as owing Su Peng another favor? Owing a favor to someone who might end up dragging her in just for Wang Sheng’s matter—it really felt like a loss.
She suddenly cast her gaze toward Wang Yu, and Wang Yu quickly lifted his eyes as well.
Why does this club president keep staring at my feet?
And his gaze is pretty intense too…
Since it was already evening, An Han had only worn slippers when she came out of the dorm. Her cropped pants revealed slender, snow-white ankles. Her cute, pale toes stepped on the house slippers, crystal-clear, with neatly trimmed nails that looked as if they were coated with a layer of glaze, faintly reflecting the light.
An Han looked at her own feet. Because of the system, they were fair and tender, quite good-looking—but they were still feet… No matter how nice they looked, they were still a bit off-putting.
“You’re not a foot fetishist, are you?” she muttered.
Even when Wang Yu’s iceberg face stiffened awkwardly, it was still an iceberg face.
An Han couldn’t see any telltale signs from his expression.
“That’s called a foot fetish,” Wang Yu corrected after a moment.
“Isn’t it the same… all pretty perverted.”
“At that time, we’ll be livestreaming on several platforms. If you come to watch in person, you can participate in the lottery.”
Why does it feel like you’re changing the subject?!
Her arms instantly broke out in goosebumps. An Han looked at Wang Yu’s iceberg face in horror and unconsciously took two steps back.
Although she understood that guys’ preferences varied—and she herself was a leg person… once she herself became part of someone else’s preference, that was completely unacceptable!
Are you f***ing perverted?! It’s not like you’re Su Peng who knows I’m a woman! What are you staring at a man’s feet for?!
I thought you were a decent guy!
Wang Yu glanced at her, his expression unchanged. “The CS:GO competition is this Saturday and Sunday, starting from the top eight.”
“The matches before the top eight are online. When there are matches, Wang Sheng and I play at the internet café. Offline communication is more convenient than online.”
Could it be that I overthought it?
Seeing how serious and upright he looked, An Han even began to doubt her own guess.
But that look couldn’t be wrong! Her sensitivity attribute wasn’t just for show!
“Oh…”
She responded a bit awkwardly.
“I’m heading back first.” An Han suddenly felt that she shouldn’t have any more contact with Wang Yu in the future.
Men really are all perverts…
She let out a powerless long sigh.
Long Xing liked short-haired, cool girls; his preference was flat-chested. Chen Junjie liked heavily made-up, mature-type girls; his preference was big and fair. And Wang Sheng… liked 2D paper characters.
It was already quite late. The club recruitment booths in the plaza had begun to pack up and leave. An Han also slowly walked back toward the dormitory.
She could clearly sense that Wang Yu was watching her back at this moment.
“Why does it feel like things are getting more and more troublesome…”
“System, are there any task rewards that are cash? Give me one.”
An Han couldn’t count on Wang Sheng to win the championship. Even if Wang Sheng really did win, she would still feel embarrassed taking his prize money to rent a place.
Besides working part-time, it seemed she still had to rely on the system.
“Damn coin system, when I need you, you don’t even fart!”
She muttered to herself, not expecting any response from the system.
After all, the damn coin system only wanted to screw her over to death.
【Task: Get engaged by going home with Su Peng. Reward: Engagement gift money】
A line of text suddenly popped up from the system, scaring An Han pale.
“No! I’m supposed to get engaged with Su Peng just for a thousand or so? Do you think I’m stupid?!”
The system interface disappeared immediately along with her curses, and no prompt to accept the task appeared either.
An Han froze in place and asked in disbelief, “So this system can even tease me now?”
Sure enough, while turning into a girl, the system must have upgraded too.
She silently complained about the increasingly lively system. Compared to how it only issued tasks based on circumstances before, the current system was clearly even more of an asshole—truly doing nothing human at all!
Back in the dorm, An Han sat lifelessly in front of the computer.
The system’s teasing just now clearly showed that it wouldn’t customize tasks for her.
So she still had to consider part-time work.
“Hey, brothers!”
Chen Junjie suddenly spoke up at this moment. “My girlfriend borrowed money from me, saying someone in her family is sick. Do you think I should give it to her?”
“If you’ve got money, you might as well lend it to me to rent a place,” An Han replied casually.
“You’re not my damn girlfriend! I’ll ask my parents!”
Long Xing asked, “No, how long have you been with your girlfriend? How much is she borrowing?”
“A little over a month. Two thousand.”
An Han laid her head on the desk with particular envy.
I also want to borrow two thousand—no, one thousand would be enough…
“Aren’t you afraid she’s scamming you for money?” Wang Sheng also chimed in.
“We’ve been together for over a month already. You should at least have basic trust, right?” Chen Junjie retorted.
It was obvious that Chen Junjie was inclined to lend money to his girlfriend.
An Han didn’t really care about this kind of thing. Anyway, even if he got scammed, it wouldn’t be her money hurting.
She yawned and asked silently in her heart: System, Wang Yu’s favorability.
【Wang Yu: Favorability 75】
When did it get this high?!
An Han suddenly perked up.
Before, with Su Peng and Long Xing, she was already being flanked by men. Now wasn’t it men on top of men!
