Chapter 546: Campus (3)

After all, in the original story, Chen Mingyue had a conflict with the female lead, and the male lead went to protect her. In the end, the female lead was unharmed because Ouyang Feng was there, but the male lead was resented. He was undoubtedly the greatest victim of injustice in modern times.

Wen Wan glanced at Gu Qiao out of the corner of her eye. Gu Qiao had already started reading. In fact, as a top student, no, he should be called a genius. If he weren't in this aristocratic academy full of crazy people, but in an ordinary university, this male protagonist would definitely be a national treasure. But here, he's been ruined by all the trouble.

Hua Hu: "Wei Ming, what do you want for lunch? Let's go out for a get-together, Cheng Yue?"

Wen Wan nodded, "Okay."

It doesn't really matter where Wen Wan eats, the main thing is that Chengyue Restaurant is a property under Huahu's company, so it's free.

Therefore, even Wen Wan, who is not short of money at all, cannot resist the temptation of free consumption.

Hua Hu: "Ouyang Qilian, where are you?"

Ouyang nodded. Qilian didn't deny it, and if she didn't deny it, she would go.

Bai Linlin: "I want to go too, take me with you."

Chen Mingyue, Lin Jiao, and Yuan Baozhu were also going, and Hua Hu naturally didn't object, since that's how it usually is.

For Wen Wan, the lessons that followed were truly agonizingly slow. Why? Because she couldn't understand them.

Don't be fooled by the fact that these kids all look like rich young masters; they've all received elite education from childhood to adulthood.

Actually, in Wen Wan's world, this would be impossible. But that's just a Mary Sue novel setting, where all the rich people live in the same university.

Wen Wan got sleepy while listening, but was eventually woken up by Hua Hu, who said, "Let's go eat."

Wen Wan's eyes widened, like a cat suddenly awakened, her eyes round and wide, still not quite reacting, she stared blankly at Hua Hu, "Huh?"

Huahu: "..."

Bai Linlin, who was standing next to Hua Hu, slapped Hua Hu's hand, saying, "Don't bully my Prince Wei."

Then, looking at Wen Wan with great enthusiasm, he asked, "Prince Wei, are you alright? Did the slap hurt?"

Wen Wan finally came to her senses, but she was also a little embarrassed, as she had just been half asleep. "I'm fine, don't be nervous."

Bai Linlin: "That's good."

...

Chengyue is a high-end bar under the Huahu family business.

Besides wanting to eat here herself, Wen Wan had another reason for coming here to eat: this place was... where the female lead worked. Wen Wan thought she should check it out first, since an important plot point was going to happen soon.

It hasn't happened yet. Wen Wan and her group arrived at Cheng Yue and quickly entered the VIP room. The owner here was obviously very sensible and soon brought out all kinds of good wine and food.

Wen Wan initially maintained some reserve, after all, he was one of the four princes, even though he would be cannon fodder in the future. However, after a table full of delicious food was served, Wen Wan had long since abandoned her reserve.

Then we started eating.

As she was eating, she suddenly felt that the atmosphere was a bit strange. Wen Wan looked up and found that, to her surprise, everyone was staring at her.

"Aren't you going to eat it? It tastes pretty good."

Hua Hu: "Eat, everyone eat! This is a chef we hired at a high salary. You can't get this anywhere else."

Bai Linlin stared intently at Prince Wei. He really looked like a kitten—beautiful, gentle, and adorable. He would squint his eyes when he ate something delicious. She had never thought Prince Wei was so cute before.

Hua Hu, on the other hand, felt something was very strange.

Was Wei Ming ever this... gluttonous before? And why is he eating so heartily? It's like he hasn't eaten in eight hundred years.

Chen Mingyue was focused on Ouyang Feng, but she noticed that Ouyang Feng was looking at Wei Ming. Yuan Baozhu, who liked Prince Qilian, was doing the same. However, Qilian ate quietly, only occasionally glancing at Wei Ming.

For a moment, the atmosphere was exceptionally harmonious.

But this harmony was broken by a commotion.

Hua Hu flew into a rage, "What's going on?"

The next second, the door was pushed open, and a girl rushed in—it was Liu Yating, the female lead.

Wen Wan's eyes widened.

This plot is wrong! What happened to the female lead? And she looks so disheveled, her work clothes are all torn to shreds.

"Liu Yating? What are you..." Before Hua Hu could finish speaking, a drunkard rushed in, "It's just asking you to have a drink with me, why are you refusing... I have plenty of money... You've got your eye on this pretty boy? He looks like a prostitute..."

Wen Yan: "..."

The manager rushed over and, seeing the scene and Hua Hu's ashen eyes, knew he was in trouble.

The next second, Hua Hu grabbed the drunkard by the collar and punched him. He then started swinging his fists wildly, but was eventually pulled back by Ouyang Feng.

"Damn it, who do you think you are to talk to me like that?"

The manager quickly ordered his men to restrain the man and apologized profusely, saying, "I'm sorry, Young Master Hua, I'll kick him out right away."

"etc."

Just as the manager was about to lead the person out, Wen Wan, who had been working silently and diligently all along, spoke up.

"Does Young Master Wei have any other requests?"

Wen Wan glanced at the female lead, then at the drunkard, and pointed at the female lead, "Is she an employee here?"

The manager glanced at Liu Yating. "Yes, did she offend Young Master Wei somewhere? I'll handle it immediately."

Liu Yating looked flustered. "Wei, I didn't mean to break in. I was just asking for help. I was scared. I didn't mean to."

"I mean, your employees are being bullied, and you're not going to do anything about it?"

Large beads of sweat streamed down the manager's forehead, while Hua Hu's face darkened completely. "Heh."

manager:"……"

The young master is angry.

This is terrible.

Who knew that this employee would happen to be a classmate of the young master, a student at a prestigious university? Why would he be working part-time here?

Manager: "Young Master Wei and Young Master Hua, rest assured, I will definitely compensate this student, and I guarantee that such a thing will never happen again in Chengyue."

"Get out," Hua Hu said, and the manager quickly left.

As for Liu Yating, she stayed where she was. Wen Wan saw that her clothes were all wet, obviously because she had been splashed with wine, so Wen Wan simply took her own coat and threw it to her.

"Th...thank you."

Wen Wan: "No need to thank me, but this is Huahu's property, so don't spread any rumors that are bad for Huahu, otherwise..."

Liu Yating: "I promise I won't say a word about it."

The female lead left.

Hua Hu grabbed Wen Wan's shoulder, almost pulling her down. "What are you doing?"

"Brother, you really are a good brother, protecting me like this. But there's no need for that. Cheng Yue is just a small bar, I don't even care about it."

Wen Yan: "..."

You think I did this for you?

No, I did it for myself. After all, if the female lead is bullied here, the male lead will protect her, and she will be fine. But the male lead might not be so lucky. After all, the male lead in this world doesn't have any protagonist halo, whether in the early or later stages. Moreover, it's a world with an appendix. In the end, the female lead is innocent and gets together with Ouyang Feng, while the male lead dies.

Since Wen Wan wanted to change this ending, the first thing she naturally had to do was to eliminate the female lead's charm and prevent her from having any contact with the fourth prince.

Including myself.

Especially for myself, since my own ending will be the most tragic.

...

After the meal, the drivers from several companies came to pick up the passengers.

Wen Wan's driver hadn't arrived yet because she had just realized she hadn't called a driver to pick her up.

“Prince Wei, shall I take you home?” Bai Linlin said.

Wen Wan shook her head. "No need, you can go back first. My driver will be there soon."

After seeing everyone off, Wen Wan slumped onto a roadside chair.

[Host, how are you going to get back? Why don't you call your driver?]

Wen Wan: "Go back? What do you mean go back? Let's scout out the place first, and go check out the male lead's house."

system:【? ? ​​? 】

"Is my host drunk? He hasn't had that much." But remembering her alcohol tolerance, the system instinctively stopped her, saying, "You haven't even had any contact with the male lead yet. Going to his place so abruptly isn't a good idea."

"Yes, then I'll go home."

As she stood up, she took out her phone to call the driver when a man rushed over and bumped into her. Wen Wan's phone fell to the ground with a thud, and the man ran away.

Wen Yan: "???"

Wen Wan was stunned.

I picked up the phone and found that the screen was black and I couldn't turn it on no matter what I did.

She's really having a run of bad luck; how could she be so unlucky?

Moreover, she was penniless. If she had known better than to refuse Bai Linlin, she wouldn't be able to go home now.

She could have borrowed a phone, but the drunk Wen Wan was extremely aggrieved and squatted by the roadside, sobbing and crying. The system was completely baffled; no matter what it said, the host cried even more and more sadly.

system:【……】

[Host, are you alright? So many people are staring, it's so embarrassing!]

Finally, the system saw the passing male protagonist. Good heavens, this really is fate, or perhaps it's not just fate, but a gradual plan. Every world is like this. The system remained silent.

Are you alright?

When Wen Wan heard someone ask her a question, she looked up and saw the male lead. She immediately hugged his leg and said, "Gu Qiao, I broke my phone and can't go home."

Gu Qiao: "..."

Gu Qiao was momentarily stunned, and didn't even react.

Seeing the other person's face flushed red from crying, like a lost and frightened rabbit, Gu Qiao didn't know why he found this young master cute, or why he inexplicably helped him up.

What's your driver's phone number?

"I'm so miserable, my phone is broken, waaaaaah... I'm so pathetic, all alone here..."

Gu Qiao felt a throbbing pain in his temples, and then he passed out drunk, his hands still tightly clutching his legs. Gu Qiao sighed. He couldn't just leave him on the side of the road, but it was clear that the other person couldn't possibly explain where he lived.
