Chapter 60 The Delinquent School Beauty Transfer Student 1 (Replacement) Butterfly...

The weather in late August was unusually hot and humid, with a restless wind carrying the heat from the roadside.

A bus slowly drove through the intersection. Fortunately, the windows were open, and a cool breeze was blowing as it moved. There weren't many people out and about in the afternoon, and the number of passengers inside the bus was sparse.

In the second-to-last row, Yun Chiyi had fair skin, a high ponytail, and wired earphones in her ears. Her expression was indifferent, and her eyes were fixed on the book, her gaze moving slowly.

At seventeen, she was pretty with delicate features, her rosy lips parted slightly as she chewed mint-flavored gum and occasionally blew a bubble.

She sat alone in the back, wearing a brand new, snow-white polo shirt and a pair of long, slender legs beneath a dark green pleated skirt. Her legs were snow-white and flawless.

She raised her leg slightly, crossing it skillfully, with a detective novel on her lap; the blood-red cover made her thighs appear slightly red.

Yun Chiyi was engrossed in her book and didn't notice the three men who walked up to her, their eyes scanning her up and down with ill intent.

The keys on their bodies jingled and clanged as the vehicles drove by, which was quite annoying.

Yun Chiyi glanced up lazily, then lowered her head, closed the book, and silently took out her phone.

Just as a rough hand reached out, her slender, white fingers moved swiftly across the book, writing a few words without any attempt to conceal them:

Is harassing a minor a criminal offense?

The hand that was about to reach her stopped abruptly. She raised her chin again, her eyes somewhat blank. Her gaze paused for a moment, then she suddenly smiled.

She waved the book in her snow-white hand and slowly said, "Gentlemen, I think I might have run into some thugs. Do you know how long it takes to get to the nearest police station?"

"Huh? The road sign outside only says three kilometers!"

Knowing she was not easy to deal with, the three men gritted their teeth and glared at her fiercely, one of them even turning red in the face.

Yun Chiyi curled the corners of her lips into a forced smile, then chose to open the book again and continue reading, completely ignoring the others.

The three of them were furious, but they couldn't show it, so they spat and turned to sit behind her.

Yun Chiyi, who was already harboring a rage, suddenly tightened her grip on the book.

[Host, I'm back!]

Upon hearing the system's voice, Yun Chiyi's gaze softened slightly.

There was a slight mishap during the transfer from the previous world, and she and the system were swept into this world by turbulence. They are currently unaware of the rules governing this world.

The system flashed back to management asking for the reason, and finally, they returned.

This fictional world is indeed not under our jurisdiction, but since we've occupied a spot, the mission still needs to be completed.

[The current host is now in the "white moonlight" role, and the mission has changed from redeeming the male supporting character to surviving, which was also the original owner's wish.]

To survive?

After hearing some of the background and the original plot, Yun Chiyi turned to look at the bustling traffic outside the car window.

In this ordinary and mundane world, simply surviving became her primary task.

And isn't the real her doing this mission all along?

She was lost in thought, staring out the window, and didn't even notice when the three men on the bus got off.

At the next stop, a young man wearing a white three-quarter sleeve shirt walked towards us.

Yun Chiyi sensed his presence and instantly turned her gaze towards him, her eyes filled with unusual emotions.

Finally, here comes the talented male supporting character in the book, the male protagonist's lifelong rival.

This novel is primarily told from the male protagonist's perspective, spanning from his school days to his professional life, depicting his transformation from a naive basketball-loving youth into a learned and accomplished publishing house owner. Throughout this journey, the supporting male character, a novelist, plays a more significant role than the female protagonist; their simultaneous appearances are essentially a subtle competition, making them veritable rivals.

At this moment, the male supporting character, still in his youthful form, appeared before them. He had a clean-cut appearance and was exceptionally good-looking.

Yun Chiyi stared intently at him, vaguely recalling his name, which seemed to be Lin Hengzhi.

Lin Hengzhi was indeed handsome, with well-defined and perfectly proportioned features. His eyes, in particular, were clear and calm, giving off an air of aloofness. He was dressed simply in a shirt and blue school trousers, looking clean and tidy without any unnecessary embellishment.

He was carrying a red plastic bag, which you could roughly tell contained two tomatoes and a few eggs.

Beneath such a pure and harmless exterior, who would know that his hands are capable of writing terrifying words?

Lin Hengzhi glanced indifferently at the seating arrangement, then sat down with the groceries in the window seat to Yun Chiyi's right.

Slowly, Yun Chiyi withdrew her gaze, her fingertips stroking the book on her lap.

The author, who had always remained anonymous in the public eye, sat next to her, pretending to be a well-behaved student, and fabricating one bloody crime investigation world after another.

Even with Yun Chiyi looking at him like that, Lin Hengzhi didn't recognize that the two had once been neighbors.

The two years they spent as neighbors, so distant and hazy, ironically became the prelude to the original owner's tragedy.

Regarding the original owner and the male supporting character, the novel describes how the original owner and Lin Hengzhi grew closer after their reunion, spending their days together and developing a secret crush on each other. However, on the day they were about to confess their feelings to each other, on the very road where the original owner was running towards Lin Hengzhi, she was struck by a runaway truck, her body torn to pieces, and she died instantly.

Lin Hengzhi witnessed the entire process. While everyone else on the road was in chaos, he calmly took out his notebook and, with trembling hands, recorded the details of the blood-red scene.

The girl's unspoken feelings and the boy's stunned silence brought their beautiful moment to an end before it even began. The original owner of this body naturally became Lin Hengzhi's purest white moonlight.

Readers say he was too sentimental, spending his whole life devoted to his childhood sweetheart and that accident.

At that moment, Yun Chiyi glanced at the lovestruck man out of the corner of her eye. Lin Hengzhi, in her field of vision, was looking ahead with a calm expression. Sunlight shone on his shoulders, and he shone with a unique light in the golden glow, somewhat holy, like a holy son of a god who had been left behind on earth.

Yun Chiyi's lips curled slightly. If Lin Hengzhi's relationship with the original owner was truly this touching, the original owner wouldn't have had such a deep obsession.

The truth is that Lin Hengzhi was the male protagonist's whetstone, while the original owner of this body was Lin Hengzhi's tool.

Each link is interconnected and indispensable.

Now, the original owner wants to live. As long as Yun Chiyi achieves this goal and overcomes the life-or-death crisis, the original owner can break free from the plot and regain control of the body.

There are still over 100 days until the car accident.

Yun Chiyi's eyebrows twitched, and she stood up, pulling on the handrail as if she was about to get off the bus.

She slowly walked to the car door. When the door opened, she didn't get out. She looked up at the route map, exclaimed "Huh," and then walked back to sit down next to Lin Hengzhi.

"I made a mistake, it's not the final stop yet."

Lin Hengzhi looked up at her; with so many seats available, she was sitting right next to him.

Yun Chiyi unwrapped a piece of chewing gum and put it in her mouth. Seeing that Lin Hengzhi was still staring at her, she said with a half-smile, "What's wrong? Is this bus yours? Can't I sit here?"

Lin Hengzhi tilted his head, his gaze somewhat puzzled.

The system was initially confused, but then it suddenly understood. Didn't Lin Hengzhi need a first love under the moonlight to complete his character? White moonlight is fragile, so why not try turning it into black?

After saying a few words to Lin Heng, Yun Chiyi didn't say anything more. She lowered her head and turned the pages of the book in her hand one by one.

Lin Hengzhi glanced at it; the crimson cover made Yun Chiyi's hands look very white, almost transparently white. The red light from the book cover shone through, and her fingertips appeared a bewitching pinkish-red in the sunlight.

Her fingernails tapped lightly on the side of the book. Because Lin Hengzhi was so familiar with the contents of the book, he didn't read the words on it, but focused on watching Yun Chiyi's nimble fingers.

It's so beautiful, yet it seems so fragile that it would break with the slightest touch.

The arrival announcement snapped Lin Hengzhi out of his reverie, and Yun Chiyi, who was sitting next to him, put away her book and left her seat early.

She had just stepped out when she saw a bunch of keys at her feet. She bent down, picked them up, and a playful smile appeared on her lips.

She didn't remember the faces of the men from earlier, but she did remember the set of keys.

Lin Hengzhi looked at her calmly. She shook the key and said, "It's too dangerous. What if someone accidentally slips and falls?"

She smiled and handed over the keys: "Or could you help me put them in the lost and found basket up ahead?"

After a long silence, Lin Hengzhi finally answered her question: "You can go."

He got up to get off the bus and stood in front of the back door.

Yun Chiyi leaned against the side, holding the lever, with the key in her hand.

Lin Hengzhi was familiar with this road. He got out of the car and walked quickly. Suddenly, he heard a crisp sound behind him. He subconsciously turned around and saw Yun Chiyi squatting next to a manhole cover, her hands empty, her dark eyes staring at the narrow, dark opening.

She tossed the key in, then noticed Lin Hengzhi looking over. She chuckled twice and said, "See? Returning the key to the trash is like putting it back where it belongs."

Lin Hengzhi frowned and stood there without saying a word.

Yun Chiyi stood up from the ground, walked quickly to him, and held out her hand: "Do you live around here? Let's hang out together sometime."

Lin Hengzhi did not respond; his indifferent gaze was as cold and clear as the moon.

Yun Chiyi didn't care about his attitude. She clapped her hands and walked ahead alone, saying, "It's okay. We might run into each other often in the future."

She walked to the front of the slope, turned around with the bright sunlight behind her, and Lin Hengzhi was still in the same position, looking up to meet her gaze.

In the hazy sunset, her face gradually became clear in my mind, as if I had seen her somewhere before.

Yun Chiyi's voice was slightly louder: "To avoid awkwardness next time we meet, let me say in advance that my name is Yun Chiyi."

Lin Hengzhi slowly opened his eyelids and walked along the side of the road as if he hadn't heard anything.

As he passed by, Yun Chiyi asked, "What's your name?"

Lin Hengzhi kept his eyes straight ahead, maintaining his indifference to the very end.

The owner of the used bookstore at the fork in the road ahead greeted him warmly: "Xiao Heng, the book you're looking for has arrived. It's almost new. Would you like to come in and take a look?"

Lin Hengzhi's eyes flickered, and she stopped in her tracks: "Aunt Lin, is there good news so soon?"

Yun Chiyi watched his actions from a distance, her hands behind her back. This wasn't how he spoke properly; he couldn't stand her even on their first meeting.

That's perfect, just what she wanted.

Aunt Lin, who runs the convenience store, kept a cheerful smile and said, "I've been keeping an eye on things for you these past few days."

Lin Hengzhi: "Thank you, Aunt Lin. I'll take it back with me."

Lin Hengzhi entered the crowded little bookstore and picked up a black novel from a pile of yellowed books. The blue butterfly on the cover had long since turned white, as if it had already flown away.

He weighed the book in his hand, decisively took out the money from his pocket, picked up the book and turned around, but Yun Chiyi, who had been bothering him, was nowhere to be seen.
