Huh? Isn't This A Galgame?-Chapter 40 - 39: Unlocking New Storylines

[(;꒪ö꒪)]

[(｡☉౪⊙｡)]

[There really is a hidden item?]

[There are in the advanced maps, but I didn’t expect the trial map to have them too]

[What is this thing?]

[Could it be another legendary item?]

...

...

Wen Nan stepped forward and opened the pitch-black treasure chest.

A flash of golden light appeared, yet the anticipated legendary item was not seen.

The chest was empty.

Wen Nan: ...

What does this mean? They put a play ball in the map?

Just as he was thinking about it, a system prompt sounded in his mind: [Congratulations player! Map exploration has reached 30%! An additional 100 experience points will be awarded and will be settled at the end of the trial.]

Does this mean he has achieved a third of the map exploration progress? So quickly? But apart from a squashed empty cola can, he got nothing.

There was only one possibility—the props and equipment here had already been cleaned out by other players.

Three figures of his roommates flashed through Wen Nan’s mind, and he quickly dismissed them.

Those three, one busy getting spanked, one busy playing basketball, one busy picking soap, definitely wouldn’t have the extra effort to sweep the map searching for items.

It might have been the big guy who snuck into his "harem".

Thinking of this, Wen Nan couldn’t help feeling a headache.

This guy just can’t stay put. Having just signed a gentleman’s agreement with him, the other party finally stopped flirting with Wen Nan’s other strategy targets, but now started scavenging the map for equipment. Can’t he relax even for a moment? Working spirit, working soul?

But Wen Nan found no grounds to blame him for doing these things. After all, map exploration is something everyone can do; it’s first come, first served.

But, to be fair, Yu Xueba is too thorough in his scavenging!

His map exploration rate already reached 30%, meaning that previous flower bed, trash can, and the restroom he was in were likely included in the exploration scope, yet Wen Nan only ended up with an empty cola can after checking all these places.

By this estimation, he might not need to bother exploring the remaining 70% of the map—they must have already been cleaned out by Yu Xueba.

Wen Nan shrugged and turned to walk towards the restroom door.

After taking just two steps, he bumped into a thin girl’s figure walking in.

"Ah!"

The girl was so scared upon seeing Wen Nan that she covered her face and ran out.

"Sorry," Wen Nan said, lowering his head, preparing to go around her and exit.

At this moment, the girl grabbed Wen Nan’s arm firmly, stopping him from leaving, "... Ye Jiu?"

Wen Nan was taken aback, "Wu Yuwei?"

"Why are you here, alone, in the women’s restroom so late?"

"Ah, got the wrong place." Wen Nan casually lied and added, "If there’s nothing else, I’m heading back to the dorm."

"Wait!" Wu Yuwei’s grip on Wen Nan’s fingers tightened, "I, I have something to tell you..."

Wen Nan continued with his previous attitude, lifting Wu Yuwei’s hand off his wrist, "Sorry, I don’t think we have anything to talk about."

With that, Wen Nan walked firmly towards the door outside.

9527: [Detected sub-plot ’Xiao Wei’s Entanglement’, task completion updated to 15%, completing sub-plot tasks provides additional experience points and equipment rewards.]

Hearing the system prompt in his mind, Wen Nan paused slightly.

Immediately after, Wu Yuwei rushed forward, raising both hands to tightly embrace Wen Nan from behind.

Wen Nan: ...

This scene, the level of melodramatic romance idol drama is too high, isn’t it?

Wu Yuwei pressed her cheek tightly against Wen Nan’s back, speaking in a muffled voice, "Ye Jiu, please don’t go, okay? I was wrong before, it’s all my fault, the one who should regret is not you, it’s me..."

What she said is all heartfelt.

Perhaps her previous confession was partly impulsive. Being rejected later, she felt hurt and upset, largely because she couldn’t accept losing to a girl like Qiqi.

But in these past two days, she figured it out, and she’s seen her true feelings clearly.

No one ever made her feel this way like Ye Jiu, making her mind linger on him incapable of letting go.

Awake she thinks of him, asleep she dreams of him, eating she thinks of him, in class she thinks of him too.

Every moment, she can’t stop thinking about this person.

She desperately wants this person, to the point of madness, but she has no means.

Now she finally understands what this feeling means—

"Ye Jiu, I like you, I really like you, I have never liked anyone this much."

In her confession, there was no longer the arrogance and assertiveness of a campus queen determined to win, but only the humble pleading of an ordinary girl driven mad by love.

This time, before the other could respond, Wu Yuwei continued quickly, "I know you chose Liu Qi, I, I don’t care! I’m willing to have a secret relationship with you, even a kind that never sees the light of day.

"Before others, you and Liu Qi can be as sweet and loving as you want, I can accept it, as long as you... as long as you are willing to come to me on such lonely nights, willing to give me just a little, even a little comfort, I’ll be content.

"Is that okay, Ye Jiu?"

Wu Yuwei’s voice choked towards the end, her whole body slightly trembling, like a delicate white flower in the rain, making people want to gently comfort her fragile petals.

But Wen Nan didn’t turn back, he just stood firmly at the doorway, letting her hold him without giving any response.

9527: [Sub-plot ’Xiao Wei’s Entanglement’ task completion updated to 35%.]

Wen Nan spoke, "Xiao Wei, let go, I told you, I don’t like you, even if we were forced together, I won’t change my feelings."

Wu Yuwei’s eyes filled with tears, about to fall any moment.

She shook her head, murmuring in a low voice, "Why, I don’t believe it..."

Saying that, she quickly walked around to Wen Nan’s front, tiptoed, and kissed his lips forcefully, her soft tongue pressing against his teeth.

Wen Nan felt some kind of liquid being transferred into his lips and teeth, feeling strange.

He didn’t have time to ponder over what this sensation was and could only panicly raise his hand, forcefully pushing Wu Yuwei away from him.

9527: [Sub-plot task completion updated to 55%.]

Wu Yuwei stumbled backward a few steps, stabilizing her stance, she looked at him with full resentment, saying, "Your body... smells of another woman’s juices! You! You and someone else..."

Hearing this, Wen Nan was shocked... she can tell from this?

"Who is it! Who are you with?!"

Driven by extreme anger and dissatisfaction, Wu Yuwei’s face twisted a bit.

Wen Nan sighed, "This has nothing to do with you."

After saying that, just as he was about to turn and walk out, he saw Wu Yuwei starting to unbutton her own shirt,

"If this is what you want... then I can give you that too!"
