The Alluring Boss O's Slacker A (Transmigration GL) - Chapter 6

This was an artistically decorated tea restaurant located inside Federal University.

The stickers on the walls had been carefully made into pictures of the Federation’s four most impressive majors and their departments’ iconic buildings.

For example, the Ancient Martial Arts Department’s black-and-red arena, the Mecha Department’s mottled yellow young bee, and the Pharmacy Department’s rare plant, the cactus—Federation name: spiky ball.

Naturally, dining in such an artistic place was also very quiet.

It was only after Wen Jin took the initiative to fight for it that Luo Xi reluctantly agreed to eat at this restaurant.

Luo Xi had a bad temper and little patience. She walked at the very front and pushed open the door.

Emerald-green hanging vines fell from exquisite flower baskets and draped over the doorway. As several people entered the restaurant, the long green leaves swayed with them.

It was lunchtime, and the restaurant was nearly full of students.

At the tables near the entrance, several college students poked their heads out curiously. The chopsticks in their hands dropped at almost the same time.

Clack.

Clack.

Clack.

……

Three crisp sounds rang out as the chopsticks hit the floor.

The person at the door was actually Luo Xi, the female tyrant known to everyone at Federal University.

And this female tyrant was not only domineering, but also rich. For someone of her status to lower herself and eat at a place of this level was truly unheard of.

The whispers all around immediately became quieter.

“Move.”

The scumbag Alpha stepped arrogantly into the restaurant, breaking the peaceful atmosphere of the entire room.

This quiet, unworldly tea restaurant had affordable prices. The taste could not be called especially good, but its advantage lay in its quiet, artistic atmosphere.

In the past, Luo Xi would not even glance at a place like this. Her arrival now truly felt like an unexpected lowering of her noble self.

The owner was a senior who had graduated from Federal University’s Service Department the previous year. She watched Luo Xi walk inside with fear and anxiety, afraid that the other party had come to cause trouble and start a fight.

But what one feared would always come.

The female student who entered right behind Luo Xi had brand-new sneakers the same color as her skin.

Looking again at the identity badge hanging from her neck—Discipline Committee Member Ruan Tingzhi.

This was undoubtedly a heavy bomb dropped into the restaurant. The senior owner looked at the two of them with fear and trembling.

As everyone knew, in Federal University’s Ancient Martial Arts Department, Luo Xi and Ruan Tingzhi represented two extremes.

Luo Xi represented the faction with high talent, good mental power, and wealthy family backgrounds from noble circles.

Ruan Tingzhi’s supporters were the ordinary poor students of Federal University whose innate conditions were lacking, yet who relied on acquired effort to fight to become overachievers and secure a place in the Ancient Martial Arts Department.

In terms of number of supporters, Ruan Tingzhi held an absolute advantage.

But university was also society. Luo Xi was the young lady of an ancient martial arts family. Whether in terms of family background or status, she had the capital to be arrogant. Although she usually had a violent temper, if she so much as moved a finger, Ruan Tingzhi’s side would also have enough trouble to suffer.

Fortunately, in the Ancient Martial Arts Department of Federal University, one still had to rely on fists to earn face. Over the years, in combat matches, Luo Xi had fought Ruan Tingzhi again and again and lost again and again.

Whether male Alphas or female Alphas, to this day, no one had been able to surpass the level-90 score Ruan Tingzhi had created at the top of the Ancient Martial Arts Department rankings.

“If Yu was born, why was Liang also born?” probably referred to these two.

Over the years, Luo Xi had inevitably been mocked by people in her circle. She had resources and talent in every way, yet she was still suppressed by Ruan Tingzhi, whose origins could not be investigated and who had once had no mental power at all.

That was why Luo Xi targeted her everywhere, and their supporters fanned the flames even more excessively. In four years of university, aside from arena matches and Ancient Martial Arts Department cultural classes, the chances of seeing Ruan Tingzhi and Luo Xi under the same roof were almost zero.

“Oh-ho.”

Some students in the restaurant, eager for chaos, had already started looking forward to the battle that seemed ready to break out at any moment.

Some people raised their heads and glanced at the emergency exit, making it easier to flee quickly if things got chaotic later.

At this moment, the Federal University forum was also very lively.

[Explosive news! Luo Xi and Ruan Tingzhi appear in the same frame of the century at Hello Tea Restaurant in the east campus. Come watch, spectators!]

[Bait post. @Admin.]

[Boring. Get lost.]

The earlier replies clearly did not believe it.

But some students were at the tea restaurant in person. Someone with the ID “Ruan Tingzhi yyds” posted one live photo of Ruan Tingzhi and one of Luo Xi.

Luo Xi was lowering her head to order food, and her face unusually carried no hostility.

Ruan Tingzhi, meanwhile, was holding the tea restaurant’s door with her hand. Her two legs were long and slender, and a section of her ankle showed from beneath her long pants, fine and delicate, carrying a glowing whiteness.

Her skin was no longer black. It was excessively porcelain-white, making her lips look especially watery red.

She looked soft and boneless, yet her eyes were pure and clear, and they also held the owner’s serious, focused attention.

It made it impossible for people to ignore Ruan the Overachiever’s past undefeated combat history.

However, the focus in her eyes was not currently given to her enemy Luo Xi. After holding the door for five full minutes, this tea restaurant finally welcomed the true main character, the person for whom Ruan Tingzhi held the door and Luo Xi worked like an attendant making tea.

Under everyone’s attention, the true main character, Wen Jin, slightly furrowed her brows: …

For some reason, inside the restaurant filled with pheromone scents, she felt an unbearable trace of irritation.

Her gaze swept one by one over the faces of the scumbag Alpha, who did not follow the plot, and the female lead Omega, who had refused the meal invitation yet had taken the initiative to come over. It was only when her gaze landed on Ruan Tingzhi that she felt slightly better.

She could not figure out exactly where the problem was.

But in any case, the original owner’s plot was already finished, and her body itself had no illness. Most of this irritation could be attributed to the environment being too noisy.

Wen Jin’s retirement goal was to think less and rest more. She wanted to give her nerves, which were almost completely stuffed full with knowledge gained from one hundred world planes, room to relax.

If she could not figure something out, she absolutely would not overthink it.

After organizing her emotions, Wen Jin put both hands in her pockets and enjoyed Ruan Tingzhi’s door-opening service.

Because of a moment of negligence, she did not even say thank you.

Ruan Tingzhi lowered her eyes. From the corner of her eye, her gaze obscurely slid over Wen Jin’s fair, delicate, porcelain-like slender neck. Then she slowly licked her dry lips.

There were many people in the tea restaurant, so food was served slowly.

Luo Xi had no patience. Irritably, she brushed aside her wavy curls.

She hooked the tray in the server’s hand, lowered her voice, and said in an unfriendly tone, “Hurry up our order.”

The server was also a student working part-time, and her legs trembled with fear.

Wen Jin’s long, narrow eyes lifted slightly. Turning her gaze, she saw Ruan Tingzhi holding her phone and doing practice questions, immersed in her own world of studying the entire time.

Study, study, study.

Wen Jin felt even more troubled. What happened to forceful possession and being at each other’s throats? You two should fight! The more hatred accumulated, the more scummy Luo Xi would be when Ruan Tingzhi entered heat.

Then Luo Xi could be directly counter-killed.

But neither the protagonist Alpha nor the protagonist Omega was following the plot. One could imagine how the innocent bystanders would be affected.

The affected server beside them was trembling in fear. Wen Jin glanced at her.

Pressing down the corner of her lips, she pushed her empty teacup toward Luo Xi.

“One more cup.”

Her expression was lazy, her eyelids half-lifted in an arc. In other people’s eyes, even though she was sitting, she seemed superior, looking down on others. That gaze seemed to say: Hurry up. You’re so clumsy at doing things.

Luo Xi, who was just about to lose her temper, was a little stunned: …

She had lived for over twenty years. As the Luo family’s eldest princess, she had either been surrounded like the moon among stars or enjoyed being followed as a female tyrant.

No one had ever ordered her to do things. Had Wen Jin, this little follower, gone crazy?

Luo Xi looked back at Wen Jin as if looking at a lunatic. Then, in the next second, Wen Jin’s red lips parted slightly, and her attitude was especially sincere. “Sorry. You said you were treating me to a meal, so I thought you planned to host me properly.”

After Wen Jin finished speaking, she lightly touched Ruan Tingzhi, who was doing practice questions, with her elbow. She said, “Luo Xi doesn’t agree. Student Ruan Tingzhi, you look very kind at first glance. Could you take care of a classmate whose hands are sore from organizing luggage all morning? Help me pour a cup of water.”

What principles could a salted fish have? Wen Jin believed Ruan Tingzhi would definitely be willing to serve. Doing this would both highlight the female lead Omega’s true kindness and beauty, and also emphasize the scumbag Alpha’s character setting.

Because of her occupational habit, Wen Jin casually helped the two of them shape their characters a little.

But unexpectedly, she failed.

Two cups of tea appeared before her at the same time: one from the scumbag Alpha, and one from Ruan Tingzhi.

Considering that Luo Xi had just shamelessly threatened Wen Jin with Wen Changrong, she pushed the tea Luo Xi had poured on her left side aside. Then she threw Ruan Tingzhi a biased smile. “Thank you! Didn’t you have something to do? Why did you suddenly come along to eat with us?”

Of course, Ruan Tingzhi had come to observe her up close and also find time to get close to the woman before her, draw a little serum, and so on.

Even though she had so many thoughts in her heart, her expression looked extremely shy. She withdrew her gaze and said seriously, “I was afraid Luo Xi would bully you again.”

Wasn’t that backwards? The corner of Wen Jin’s mouth twitched.

However, this was indeed something early-stage Ruan Tingzhi would do. The original novel described her as loving to study, respecting teachers, and caring for poor students in difficulty. Although she was rigid and followed the rules, and studied so hard that no one could compare, her heart was very kind.

The reason for describing her this way was probably to prepare for her later blackening.

Wen Jin did not know that this interaction between herself and Ruan Tingzhi looked truly ambiguous in the eyes of outsiders.

Both were beauties—one pure and noble, the other lazy and lightly mature.

On the school forum, some people had already started shipping the two of them.

[Luo Xi is too violent. She even has abs and developed biceps. She’s not suitable for finding a female Omega at all, especially a clean and hardworking girl Omega like Ruan Tingzhi. A male Omega would suit her more.]

[Does anyone know that young lady beside them with long ash-gray curls? She’s so womanly and charming, especially that glance when she propped her long hand on the table, rested her chin on it, and looked back. It has nothing to do with gender anymore, okay? She’s totally top-tier lesbian-circle material.]

[Wake up. If Ruan Tingzhi is willing to lie in her arms, what business do you delusional fans have left? Wait, I’ll edit a picture of the two of them.]

Thirty seconds later.

A steamy edited picture of Ruan Tingzhi hooking her arm around Wen Jin’s neck, with her little tongue wandering, was posted on the campus forum.

Luo Xi opened her Moments and saw it in the dormitory group chat.

Shao Yujia had forwarded it.

[That bitch Wen Jin, so this was her real goal.]

[Fuck. I knew it. She suddenly betrayed Sister Xi because she had already found her next backer.]

[That’s not even the most shameless part. I previously had people below check things out. Guess why Wen Jin wants to move dormitories? Her cohabitation partner is something else…]

Not long ago, Shao Yujia had been publicly embarrassed by Wen Jin and Ruan Tingzhi together. The ninety-nine messages in the group were all curses.

Luo Xi had no time to read the words. She only opened that fan-edited picture.

Immediately, her mood became stifled. With one long-legged kick, she stood up angrily, her ears flushed red. The chair scraped loudly as it was dragged behind her. Without saying a word, she tossed her long hair and stormed off.

Wen Jin: “What’s wrong with her?”

The corner of Ruan Tingzhi’s lips twitched. Then she said innocently, “I don’t know.”

Wen Jin looked at the poor little thing with pity, returned the cup of tea Ruan Tingzhi had poured, and said, “Then you definitely wouldn’t expect that Luo Xi is actually jealous.”

Ruan Tingzhi thought, So you know.

But Wen Jin had an expression that clearly said, “Please don’t drag innocent bystanders into your quarrel.” Slowly, she took Ruan Tingzhi’s hand.

The sudden soft, boneless warmth covering the back of her hand made Ruan Tingzhi’s sensitive body tremble slightly.

Then the woman opposite her, with jade-like, soft fingers, held her hand and brought it to the edge of the cup of tea from earlier.

“Can I take a photo?”

Her voice carried a magnetic temptation. Ruan Tingzhi lowered her eyes as a tingling numbness spread from her palm into her heart.

She heard herself give a bewitched “Mm.”

Wen Jin took out her phone and snapped a photo of the teacup. Then she posted it to her Moments with the caption:

[I’m not worthy. Goddess Ruan poured this tea, but then she took it back again.]

Ruan Tingzhi: ???

The upward curve of her lips faded. Half-smiling, she said, “Are you trying to draw a clear line between us?”

Wen Jin thought, Do I have any relationship with you?

But just as the words reached her mouth, she remembered that the person beside her would become a black-hearted white lotus who devoured people without spitting out the bones after blackening.

Being targeted by her would mean endless trouble.

Changing her wording at the last second, Wen Jin shook her head twice in succession. “No. It’s because we’re not familiar with each other. Suddenly ordering you to pour tea seemed impolite.”

This was the truth. Ruan Tingzhi’s mood was not bad at the moment either. The rise and fall of her family in her previous life was her true mission, so naturally she did not hope to have a relationship with anyone. She had no such thoughts for the future either.

It was just that the warmth of palm against the back of hand just now had caused a slight reaction in her body.

Her earlier question had been a test, but it was indeed inappropriate.

So Ruan Tingzhi put down the phone she had been using to do practice questions. She opened a pair of pure, flawless doe eyes and met Wen Jin’s gaze, which was so lazy it looked like she was about to fall asleep.

Thinking of the information Wan Shishi had found a few minutes ago about her future roommate, Ruan Tingzhi’s cherry-blossom-colored lips lifted slightly. “We may not be familiar now, but perhaps we’ll become familiar in the future.”

Wen Jin let out an “oh” and thought, Keep dreaming.
