During the big break.
A group of students from Class 8 were having fun in the classroom. The big fan above their heads was spinning hard. The classmates were chasing each other and running in the small corridor, laughing and joking. It was very lively.
Mu Ci sat in the last row, with a book of wrong answers in front of him, staring at it intently.
Rong Niannian, who was standing by, sat next to Mu Ci with a facial mask on. She looked at her with surprise on her face, but because of the mask, she didn't dare to show much expression on her face.
"Sister Mu Ci, you have changed your personality. What do you want to do?"
Rong Niannian spoke softly, with her surprise expressed in her eyes.
"Sister has to study hard!" Mu Ci did not hide anything at all.
"!!!"
Rong Niannian was really shocked, and she accidentally pulled the mask off with her hand.
She leaned forward with her whole body, then placed both hands on Mu Ci's face, rubbed it hard, and concluded: "Sister Mu Ci, you have changed!"
Mu Ci: “…”
Mu Ci grabbed her hands and let them go, with a speechless look on his face.
"Okay, stop being poor, Nian Nian. I have to study hard. It doesn't matter what the reason is. What's important is that I..."
Before she could finish, a voice suddenly rang out at the door of Class 8, and a boy shouted loudly: "Sister Mu Ci! There is a beauty looking for you!"
As soon as these words were spoken, there was a chorus of sighs, joking and mocking voices in the classroom.
Mu Ci's mouth twitched.
I am a woman, and why are you so excited about a woman looking for another woman?
Mu Ci tore off the new facial mask that Rong Niannian had placed beside him, put it on her face, and said, "Be good and stay here. We'll talk about what happened later."
After saying that, he glanced towards the classroom door, then leaned over to Rong Niannian's ear and whispered a few words.
Rong Niannian was stunned: "Oh, okay."
When she looked in the direction of her sight, she discovered that the person waiting at the classroom door was actually Ding Nianzhen!
Wait, Ding Nianzhen... is Yu Shi's classmate, so...
When Rong Niannian thought of Mu Ci's recent strange behavior, she suddenly had a bold guess in her mind.
Love to study hard!
The more Rong Niannian thought about it, the more she felt that it was true. However, if Mu Ci heard this, he would definitely hit her on the head. What the hell, she was willing to endure grievances to study! Was she the kind of person who endured grievances to study?
Studying is so difficult, why bother to compromise!
Feeling that he had said something remarkable, Mu Ci curled his lips and walked out briskly.
…
Mu Ci walked over, leaned against the wall, put his hands in the pockets of his sports uniform, and looked at the heroine Ding Nianzhen who suddenly appeared. He didn't understand why she came to him. Shouldn't she go and pester the hero?
In the original setting, the heroine Ding Nianzhen was a cheerful, kind and extremely likable person. However, ever since he accidentally saw the heroine's expression that seemed a bit broken when he came back from Class 1 of Senior 1, Mu Ci always felt that something was wrong with her.
Compared with Mu Ci's "unkempt" and careless image, Ding Nianzhen stood in front of her, looking well-behaved. In contrast, her quiet image was even more obvious.
She had a smile on her face. When she saw Mu Ci coming out, she walked over to him in a familiar manner, pulled him to the other side, and said warmly, "Mu Ci, come, let's talk here. I came to you this time because I want to talk to you about something personal. Please don't be impatient."
Ding Nianzhen said the last sentence jokingly.
But Mu Ci didn't think she was joking. It seemed like Ding Nianzhen was genuinely mocking her bad temper and irritability.
According to the original owner's temperament, Mu Ci shook his arm and pulled back the sleeve of his school uniform. Then, with a somewhat nonchalant expression on his face, he said, "If you have something to say, say it now. If you have something to say, say it now. Don't pretend to be close to me here. We are not familiar with each other!"
Mu Ci's eyes were indifferent, without any real disgust, nor any other emotions, as if nothing was so important in her eyes.
Ding Nianzhen's hands were empty, and a hint of viciousness flashed across her eyes. It was fleeting, and she quickly returned to her previous kind and cheerful look. The smile on her lips remained unchanged. She pursed her lips, as if she didn't care about Mu Ci's action just now, and said, "Haha, there's nothing else important. It's just about classmate Yu Shi. I want to ask you how you feel about it."
When Mu Ci heard her mention Yu, his brows furrowed, wondering what she was up to.
"System, is the heroine really okay? I always feel like something is wrong, but I can't put my finger on it. I suggest you check what's going on. I always feel like she's... a bitch."
System: “…”
It's strange that Mu Ci and the heroine have been in private contact for such a long time, but no side quests have been triggered.
In fact, it also felt it, and had a vague guess in its heart. Apart from the employer, the virtual world usually only has one tasker. However, special circumstances may occur, such as the adult now, or someone with higher authority, who can also come directly to the small world.
The last special situation is actually considered by the system to be the most unlikely. After all, there is nothing else in the small world except that adult and 054. Moreover, 054 is just a tasker. Apart from that adult, no one else would come to find her on purpose... Wait, that adult!
I heard that the little daughter of the Time Management Bureau boss has been pursuing that adult!
!!!
The system thought about it and decided to contact its superiors right away to see where the problem occurred. In short, it must not be what it guessed, otherwise everything would be messed up.
Mu Ci saw Ding Nianzhen asking this, but before she could say anything, the other party had no intention of asking her to answer at all, and continued speaking directly.
"I'm Yu Shi's junior high school classmate. I've known him for a long time. He's always been a good student. No matter when, he's always at the top of the class. He's a role model in many people's minds. This time I transferred here, he's still the best in the first year of high school, so I don't want him to be held back by others. He's so outstanding, he shouldn't be held back by others. I think you should understand what I mean."
When Ding Nianzhen said this, she still had a kind and cheerful smile on her face. When she mentioned Yu Shi earlier, there was even a glimmer of longing in her eyes. But when she mentioned Mu Ci later, her expression suddenly changed.
When Mu Ci heard these inhuman words, he couldn't control himself at all. A surge of rage surged in his heart, burning, strong and rapid.
"I don't understand." Mu Ci suppressed his anger and said coldly.
So you are saying in a long conversation that if I pester him, I am delaying him? People like me are not worthy of talking to those who have studied well? If I say one word, I am delaying him?
Seeing her face turn cold, Ding Nianzhen seemed to have guessed Mu Ci's reaction.
The smile on her face remained unchanged, but she raised her hand and held Mu Ci's hand, and continued: "Mu Ci is so smart, I believe you will understand."
As he was talking, he suddenly stepped forward and whispered, "A person as outstanding as Yu Shi is destined not to be with someone like you. Since you are a fool, you should look in the mirror from time to time and know yourself, right? Outstanding people should be with outstanding people, such as me. After all, you are not from the same world. You are just a poor student. You can just stop studying, play around, eat melon seeds, and apply facial masks. Don't dream about what doesn't belong to you. Anyway, people like you will never be able to get up in your lifetime."
"Are you done?" Throughout the whole process, Mu Ci didn't get angry and didn't say anything.
Ding Nianzhen was a little surprised, feeling that she did not play the cards the way she imagined.
Mu Ci ignored her and continued, "If you're done..."
After a pause, Mu Ci stared straight into Ding Nianzhen's eyes, looking at her coldly. His eyes seemed calm and indifferent, but in fact they were full of hostility.
"When you're done, get out of here!"
The last word is terribly cold.
After Mu Ci finished speaking, he pulled his hand back. But at this moment, Ding Nianzhen stared at that hand, curled the corners of her mouth slightly, and then her face was instantly replaced with fear, and her body fell straight back.
She was standing in an awkward position, and to others, it looked like Ding Nianzhen was pushed to the ground by Mu Ci.
There were quite a few people standing in the corridor on the other side of the big break. When they heard the exclamation, they all looked towards Mu Ci with expressions of surprise on their faces.
The author has something to say: Guess why the heroine of Small World turned evil?
