Chapter 6

The next day, Su Wenxing had classes all day.

For a patient with little energy, attending a class all day is really not an easy task.

Fortunately, Su Wenxing was a patient and tolerant person. Even though he felt that class was tiring and difficult, he still finished the class in an orderly manner.

While Su Wenxing was attending class obediently, Qin Lian, who only had one class today, chose to go house hunting with a real estate agent.

They had originally planned to go see the house on Saturday, but considering Su Wenxing's health condition, Qin Lian felt it would be safer to buy the house sooner rather than later.

A normal person's health value is between 90 and 100, but Su Wenxing's health value is currently only a pitiful 8 points.

Even with a succubus system, eight health points are still too few.

If something were to happen to him while he was in the dormitory, his situation would be extremely dangerous.

Many people say that relationships between boys are not as complicated as those between girls.

They say that girls are more prone to scheming and backstabbing, and that conflicts are more likely to arise among them.

In fact, it's the same among boys.

Sometimes, their malice can be more obvious and direct.

They may resort to violence against others without any apparent conflict.

Qin Lian himself is a boy, so he naturally understands the male group better than anyone else. Most boys are impulsive and violent, and he always felt that it was not safe to leave Su Wenxing in the dormitory.

Qin Lian looked at houses all day; he looked at two in the morning and two in the afternoon.

There are four houses in total, all near their school.

Most of the houses near L University are old and dilapidated.

Of these four houses, one is located in a residential complex opposite the south gate of their school.

This residential complex is over 20 years old, and all the buildings inside are walk-up apartments.

The apartment Qin Lian went to see was on the second floor.

The apartment is very small, only about 60 square meters. It was originally a one-bedroom apartment, but the landlord converted it into a two-bedroom apartment.

Qin Lian thought the apartment was in a good location and on a low floor.

It's a pity the house is too small and the facilities are too old; otherwise, it would be a really nice place to buy and live.

After that, the agent took him to see two apartments in a neighboring community.

This neighborhood is a bit newer, and the environment is better than that one.

There are two apartments, one large and one small. The larger one is on the third floor, 120 square meters, with three bedrooms and one living room.

The smaller one is on the first floor, 80 square meters, with two bedrooms, a living room, and a small garden.

In addition to these three apartments, they also went to look at an apartment with an elevator that was a little further away.

This one is much better than the previous three. It's not only an apartment with an elevator, but it's also a top-floor unit, a duplex, and has a balcony.

Qin Lian really wanted the last set, but there was a problem with it: it was a bit far from the school.

After viewing the house, Qin Lian planned to ask Su Wenxing for his opinion.

If Su Wenxing thinks the fourth house is too far, then Qin Lian can buy the one on the first floor.

After finishing her classes in the afternoon, Su Wenxing returned to her dormitory to rest.

But before he could rest for long, his system notification sounded.

When Su Wenxing saw that the system had issued a task, he quickly and secretly clicked on the task to take a look.

"Ding-dong~ Cute little intern succubus, this is the system's second novice test for you. Please let your target kiss your forehead!"

Seeing how simple the task was, Su Wenxing immediately perked up.

As he got out of bed, he took out his phone to call Qin Lian.

Seeing his excited appearance, one of his roommates asked, somewhat puzzled, "Didn't you just say you weren't feeling well? Why aren't you lying down and resting? Where are you planning to go?"

Upon hearing this, Su Wenxing smiled and said, "I need to see Qin Lian about something, so I have to go out for a bit."

My roommate frowned and muttered under his breath, "Qin Lian again?"

Are these two conjoined twins? Qin Lian just visited him yesterday, and Su Wenxing wants to visit him again today. Are they that close?

Just as Su Wenxing finished putting on his shoes, Qin Lian answered his call.

Qin Lian: "What's wrong?"

Su Wenxing whispered, "There's a new mission!"

"What mission?"

"Letting you kiss my forehead is such a simple task."

Yes, for Su Wenxing, getting Qin Lian to kiss his forehead was a very simple thing.

They were good buddies, and he knew that Qin Lian didn't have any romantic feelings for him, so he wouldn't feel anything at all if Qin Lian kissed his forehead.

Qin Lian seemed to be silent for a moment, but Su Wenxing was completely unaware of it, still excitedly absorbed in his own world.

Because of this mission, the system gave him four health points.

Adding the previous eight points, he will have twelve health points, bringing him one step closer to being able to drink milk tea.

Where are you now? I'm coming to find you!

"I'm at the south gate of the school."

"Okay, then you wait for me there."

As Su Wenxing said this, she immediately hung up the phone and left the dormitory building.

He wanted to run, but thinking of his fragile heart, he resisted the urge.

Soon, he spotted Qin Lian's exceptionally tall figure at the south gate of the school.

When Qin Lian was on the phone with Su Wenxing, there was no one around.

While he was waiting for Su Wenxing, several female students surrounded him.

People rarely see Qin Lian, and they can't help but wonder what he's doing here.

Qin Lian didn't talk to them much. He didn't like them, and he would never be with any of them, so there was no need to give them any expectations.

It's often said that the greater the expectation, the greater the disappointment.

Since it's impossible, there's no need for us to get close to each other.

He's not a jerk, and he doesn't like toying with people's hearts, so why waste each other's time and youth?

Seeing his cold and indifferent attitude, the female students did not leave obediently immediately, but continued to talk to each other.

"Senior, you're so tall! I only reach your shoulder."

"Yes, you're so tall. In my hometown, there are very few people as tall as you."

"Senior, are you waiting for someone? You're not waiting for your childhood friend, are you?"

"I think so. His name is something like Su Wenxing, right?"

...

When they finally saw Su Wenxing, one girl couldn't help but feel a little envious. "It's so much better to be a guy," she thought. "Being a guy means you can be best buddies with your crush and spend all your time admiring his good looks."

Before they could curiously approach and speak to Su Wenxing, Qin Lian led her into the car parked by the roadside.

Qin Lian's car was a fairly ordinary black sedan. It wasn't expensive, and the color wasn't particularly eye-catching; it was definitely not the type of car a rich second-generation like him would like.

After the two got into the car, Qin Lian drove it away.

He drove a little further away before turning to look at Su Wenxing.

Seeing this, Su Wenxing immediately smiled and said, "Quick, find a place to park the car, and then help me complete the task first."

The more health points he has, the better his physical condition will be, and the less discomfort he will experience.

Upon hearing this, Qin Lian led him to a small park.

They didn't get out of the car; instead, they planned to carry out their mission inside.

This task was as simple as Su Wenxing had said.

Qin Lian only needs to kiss Su Wenxing's forehead for Su Wenxing to gain four health points.

Qin Lian felt that the bottom line of this task was acceptable; it only required him to kiss his childhood friend's forehead. He was still willing to do it so that his friend could survive.

Thinking this, Qin Lian reached out and brushed aside the stray hairs on Su Wenxing's forehead. Just as he was about to kiss her, Su Wenxing suddenly took out a tissue and wiped her forehead.

While wiping, Su Wenxing said, "I know you're a germaphobe, but don't worry, I washed my face properly this morning. I'll wipe it again now so you won't get a mouthful of dust on it."

Qin Lian: "..."

Su Wenxing wiped his forehead and saw Qin Lian staring at him indifferently without moving.

He glanced at Qin Lian's slightly dry lips, then opened his backpack and rummaged through it before pulling out an orange-flavored lip balm.

The lipstick was prepared for him by Su Wenxing's cousin. Su Wenxing's cousin thinks Su Wenxing is good-looking, so she often prepares things like lipstick, hand cream, and facial cleanser for him.

When Su Wenxing came here to study at university, his cousin secretly gave him a lot of things.

Seeing that he had brought all these things from afar, Su Wenxing felt embarrassed to throw them away.

He doesn't wear makeup, but he occasionally uses things like facial cleanser and lip balm.

Facial cleanser can make him cleaner and more hygienic.

Lip balm can prevent his lips from becoming dry, cracked, and peeling.

Someone in their dorm uses it, so it wouldn't be strange for him to use it.

When Qin Lian saw the lipstick, he guessed what Su Wenxing wanted to do.

He immediately frowned and tried to dodge, but Su Wenxing grabbed his ear.

Yes, Su Wenxing grabbed Qin Lian's ear.

He thought pulling on Qin Lian's ears was convenient, as it would prevent Qin Lian from moving around.

Qin Lian said with dissatisfaction, "I don't want to apply this kind of stuff."

"Your lips are so dry and peeling. When you kiss me later, it'll definitely feel prickly."

"Just a touch, you won't feel anything."

"That won't do either. Today's task is to kiss on the forehead, but tomorrow it might be to kiss on the lips. Even if we're not really a couple, you can't make me suffer like this, can you?"

Qin Lian was amused by Su Wenxing's words, and he stared at Su Wenxing speechlessly.

Regardless, he was still a proper campus heartthrob at L University. He was willing to kiss Su Wenxing, and Su Wenxing felt wronged?

Seemingly sensing what he was thinking, Su Wenxing analyzed very seriously, "I'm not bad-looking either, and I've never been in a relationship before. I've always fantasized about having a girlfriend. I've heard that girls' mouths are fragrant, soft, and sweet. I should be enjoying being kissed and cuddled by pretty girls. But now, because of the system, I'll be kissing and cuddling with you from now on. So, looking at it this way, I do seem quite wronged. Just cooperate with me obediently."

Qin Lian was furious. "You're the one who made me your target."

Now she's complaining that he's not as sweet and gentle as a girl.

What an infuriatingly awful thing!

Su Wenxing deliberately ignored Qin Lian's words and still forced Qin Lian to apply lipstick.

Qin Lian disliked having bad breath, and upon smelling the orange scent wafting from his nose, he frowned and asked, "Have you used this before?"

Upon hearing this, Su Wenxing said with some dissatisfaction, "Qin Lian, do you look down on me?"

Qin Lian moved his head, signaling Su Wenxing to release his ear.

To prevent Su Wenxing from causing any more trouble later.

Qin Lian quickly reached out and cupped Su Wenxing's face in his hands, then kissed Su Wenxing on the forehead.

That kiss was so fast, it was like lightning, as if Su Wenxing had thorns on his forehead.

Before Su Wenxing could even experience what it felt like to have his forehead kissed, the system notified him that the mission was complete.

What happened?
