Chapter 4: The Original's Memories, Wrong Plot?
It was around lunch break when the girl with violet wigs confessed to him. Time quickly passed since then. Now, he was in a big room painted with white and green.
It was already his third three hour class of the day.
Of course, he was not listening to the lectures at all. For a man whose soul had long graduated from college, the lessons were not worth listening to.
He had already completed his studies years ago in his original world so there was just no need to spend energy on these things. Anyway, why would someone who already experienced apocalypse care about lectures?
Instead of wasting time pretending to study, he remained sitting at the back, taking the chance to familiarize himself with the world and his setting.
He also spent the whole subject period reviewing what role his past self played in the original story. And so far, he was liking everything he 'watched' in his memories.
'So, I'm totally not an extra...' The corner of his lips curled up in amusement.
'I am the only son of a rich couple and the heir to a fairly large business. If no accident happens, my life is destined to an enviable and stable road.'
'But of course, if I plan to go against a large corporation like the Chengs, my family will be like a large boat trying to collide with a giant cruise ship. Fortunately, the past 'me' didn't do that and only minded his own business.' He folded his arms.
'However, this means my only contact with the villainess is at college. This girl Xie Na, the known poisonous flower of the Business Management Department, is the best friend of that violet wigged girl who I just rejected this morning.'
'In the original timeline, I rejected that girl harshly which makes that Xie Na charged at me with her fist. Of course, she didn't really manage to do anything to me because my fangirls apprehended her immediately.'
'The problem is because she has a violent and crazy tendency since young, yet very protective of her friends, she didn't give up taking revenge on me.'
'Funny that in the process, she somehow managed to anger this school's wealthiest beauty...'
He chuckled soundlessly as he reviewed every petty trick this villainess did to harass him to death. His dark eyes then flashed with mockery and amusement as he 'watched' how all these tricks fell to this other crazy and wealthy admirer of his.
Yes! None of Xie Na's schemes against him made him fall for it because every time she tried to do something, the victim always ended up to be his die-hard admirer. This one was also a campus beauty and the heiress of a family as wealthy and influential as the Chengs!
'No wonder at the young age of 20, she was already at the factory! It seems, this other girl forced our villainess out of the university.'
After shaking his head, he slung his bag across his right shoulder and marched toward the backdoor. Exactly after the bell rang, Jiang Li had already exited the room.
It was only his first day in this world as a task-taker, so he decided to not pressure himself so much.
Anyway, it was not like the villainess would run away. Also, there is still a year before the villainess and the male protagonist's encounter. With so much time in hand, he wanted to thoroughly consider what to do in order to save the villainess.
It was so hard to decide!
His mind and instinct were constantly urging him to just kill the male protagonist so that the villainess would not go crazy in love! But the problems were... When, how, and where to do that? Should he use that Cheng dude as practice material for his actual revenge?
Somehow, the thought made his mind and body alive, and he just couldn't wait to plan and carry it out!
The system: ...Waaah! It's only the first day, and he's already thinking of murder! What to do with this mentally unstable host?!!!!
He inwardly sneered, 'Whatever, I'll just take a nice sleep after going home. Then tomorrow I'll ditch the class to start harassing anyone I have to! In short, I don't plan to do anything today. '
Unfortunately, despite this thought in his mind, it seemed fate wanted him to work his ass off immediately. Jiang Li had no plan in mind for today, but this was not necessarily the case for others!
The moment he took the left turn which leads to the lobby, he saw someone standing at the entrance. It was a girl with bright eyes, trimmed brows, small but high nose, and perfectly shaped lips.
When looked at carefully, her features are very defined. She 'would' be very beautiful, normally.
However, when Jiang Li looked at her, he felt like his eyes had been polluted again. And it was already the second time today! The first was when he woke up.
So what's the problem with this one? Was she in another weird colored wig or pompous looking getup? Not really! She was simply in overly gothic and dark themed clothes and makeup!
What does this mean?
Oh. See her black-colored lips! Her exaggerated smokey eyes! And those three rings which stood out conspicuously on her nose? Well, that was not the worst. Look at her mind-boggling uneven twin-tails hairdo!
He badly wanted to ask, 'Hey, girl. Do your parents know about this? What's wrong with the plot? I thought she's supposed to be a poor Cinderella? Or is she like this only at the campus but when she got kicked out, she shed her stupid aesthetics and became a normal rank-and-file factory worker?'
Jiang Li stared at the girl for a fairly long time. The girl was also staring at him. Angrily.
