Cherreads

Chapter 3 - "Did she just... hit on me?!"

"Yes, Miss."

Zhang Xulin, who was about to park near the hotel, immediately nodded and followed the order.

Inside her mind, she was wondering.

'Is Miss here to meet someone?'

Yang Qingxi didn't care about Zhang Xulin's thoughts. Her mind was filled with thoughts about this new protagonist and how to deal with him.

Soon, the car stopped near the restaurant and parked in a parking spot.

"Welcome~"

Yang Qingxi, followed by Zhang Xulin, entered the restaurant.

She swept her eyes in the entire area and paused on the man sitting at the corner dozing off, basking in the warm sunlight.

Because a reminder sounded inside her mind.

'It's him.'

[Ding! Destiny Protagonist is detected!]

[Ding! Information is being retrieved!]

[Destiny Protagonist: Su Mo]

[Age: 22]

[Cultivation: Foundation Building (Level 1)]

[Personality: Lazy, Narcissist, Shameless]

[Luck Value: 50,000 (Growing)]

[Hobbies: Reading, Singing, Piano, etc]

[Information: Transmigrator from another parallel world]

'???'

'!!!'

'Foundation Building!!!'

Yang Qingxi didn't care about his other information. When she read Su Mo's cultivation level, a look of shock appeared on her face.

You must know she is only a little stronger than an ordinary person. Zhang Xulin, her bodyguard, is a little short from the peak of the body refining stage.

Before, she only had a basic understanding about the hidden martial arts world. It was only after boding to the system did she understand the difference in realms.

This is why she got shocked after learning about the strength of this new protagonist.

Just when the idea of retreating came to her mind.

The system reminder sounded inside her head.

[Ding! Destiny Protagonist Detected: Su Mo]

[Please Make a Choice!]

[Whether to: 1) Kill him! or 2) Subdue him!]

'Hehe, you want to kill me, right? System?!'

Yang Qingxi wondered if her system had a plan to backstab her.

[Ding! It is recommended to use the hint function.]

When this reminder sounded, Yang Qingxi became a little thoughtful.

'Does it mean things can turn in a direction beneficial to me?'

Out of little trust in the system, Yang Qingxi activated the hint function.

[Ding! Activating the hint function once costs 100 Luck Points.]

'F*ck you, system! I only received 100 points in the novice pack, and you want me to use them all?'

Yang Qingxi was expressionless on the surface, pretending to read the menu, but her mind was already fuming with anger.

[Ding! Whether to activate the hint function once?]

After thinking for a moment, she decided to take the bet.

'Okay, activate the hint. I want to see what kind of hint can let you ask me for 100 points.'

[Ding! Destiny Protagonist Detected: Su Mo]

[Please Make a Choice!]

[Whether to: 

1) Kill him!- Hint (Difficulty Level: Hell)

2) Subdue him! - Hint (Difficulty Level: Easy ~ Hell)]

'So, that's it.'

Yang Qingxi's lips curled up a little as she understood what the system was hinting at.

Killing him is hell difficultly. She knows this without the system reminding her. Besides, she didn't want to kill someone who has no enmity with her or affects the interests of her family.

According to her previous thoughts, subduing him was even more impossible. After all, the strong have their own arrogance and naturally don't want to work under someone weaker than them.

She thought the same should be the situation with Su Mo, because she overlooked one point. Which she only remembered after seeing the system hint.

That is Su Mo's personality.

He is lazy.

This is his weakness, which she can benefit from. As long as she plays her cards well.

There's also a high risk in this, because if she makes a mistake the task's difficulty will increase.

'I choose to subdue him.'

[Ding! The second option was chosen. Because of the uncertainty factor involved in the choice. An additional auxiliary function is provided.]

[Heart voice listening function is activated: You can now listen to the heart's voice of the 'subdue' target (This function can be actively turned on and off).]

'Great!'

Although expressionless on the surface, Yang Qingxi was extremely excited in her heart. With this new function, she was more certain that everything would work out smoothly.

She ordered a cup of coffee for herself and a plate of steamed buns for Zhang Xulin.

The restaurant lady was speechless, thinking, 'after looking at the menu for 5 minutes you chose a coffee for yourself?'.

Zhang Xulin had already had her breakfast. But since the Miss ordered a plate for her, that means she must grit her teeth and eat even if there's over consumption.

"By the way, can you ask that gentleman over there to share the table with us? I would like to drink coffee while basking in the sunlight. The same as him."

When Yang Qingxi made the request, not only the restaurant lady but also Zhang Xulin looked over in the direction she pointed to.

There, they saw a handsome young man was slowly eating a sandwich, looking out of the window, lost in thought.

The restaurant lady gave Yang Qingxi an ambiguous smile and nodded in a vague way. Then walked over in Su Mo's direction.

In fact, Su Mo had already noticed several gazes looking at him. But he didn't find it strange. After all, he was so handsome that it was obvious people would look at him more.

He had noticed when the two beautiful women entered the restaurant, and the more beautiful one was looking at him. After all, she was so eye-catching. However, he cared more about the food.

Also, he didn't find any threat from them, so he didn't take it heart.

Even when the restaurant lady asked if he could share the table with them. He agreed without thinking much of it.

That is, until he heard the beautiful woman in front of him speak while sipping on her coffee.

"Excuse me, sorry to disturb your breakfast. I just couldn't help but come over because you look like an old friend of mine."

*Cough*

Zhang Xulin almost choked on the dumplings when she heard her young miss speak this century-old pickup line.
