I’m The Protagonist?! 7

Feng Shi, fortunately, did not struggle in her studies aside from history since the one she knew is not necessarily the same as the one she had memorized from the first world that she had been in. However, even then, she still tried her best to listen and see if she can learn anything new.

It's not like she can just buy pieces of knowledge and information and she can automatically know.

Xiao Wang heard Feng Shi's thought and could not help but tilt his head to the left cutely before licking his paw and brushing it in his furry ear.

"Master you can purchase books that would be able to give you the knowledge you seek. However, it would be based on whether it would only be one-time use or a permanent understanding" Xiao Wang informed her making Feng Shi look at him in confusion.

Without another word, Xiao Wang opened the system shop panel in front of Feng Shi.

She scrolled down the shop and indeed, it not only has those skill books and such but also cars spaceships, and various other items that can be useful and some useless junk too that she can entertain.

The problem lies, however, when she looks at the zeros on the items. Let's not talk about the spaceships and legendary weapons.

A single-use skill that can only be used in one world alone costs 1000 points while the permanent ones cost 10,000. This made her think that studying them would be preferable as she can use her points for emergencies or for when she truly needs an item that might help with her missions.

Despite the price, Feng Shi is glad to at least have something that would aid her in her missions for when she needs items that would be beneficial to her. This can be her fail-safe.

Feng Shi immediately stood up when the bell rang indicating their break. However, something else did coach her attention making her eyes once again narrow slightly.

She had forgotten that she wasn't the only popular one in her group. They all were which means...

She glared lightly at the girls outside of their classroom ogling at Cheng Xiu. The previous host did not care but Feng Shi have a lot to say about this. Especially since technically, her lover is yet to be officially hers in this lifetime.

She harrumphs while stroking Xiao Wang's fur aggressively. She gave amazing control of her emotion most of the time but there is only two existence who can rattle her immediately. Anything concerning the mysteries of her past, especially her memories, and the other would be the keeper of her heart, her lover.

Cao Ai and Chia Biu who were on either side of her noticed her reaction immediately making them grin at each other as an idea come into their mind.

"Are you thinking what I'm thinking?" Cao Ai messages Chia Biu and received a thumbs up in return.

As Feng Shi seethed when some group of girls went to talk to Cheng Xiu surrounding his chair, her friends were already scheming on how to finally get the two to take a step further in their relationship.

"Cheng Xiu sure is popular with the girls" Chia Biu commented as if it was just a simple conversation but the sly smirk on her face tells it all.

Unfortunately, Feng Shi was too busy glaring at those girls to give her much attention.

Instead of Cao Ai replying though, Huang Jun butted in. "Yeah, the dude is always surrounded by beautiful flowers". He grinned slinging his arms around Cao Ai's shoulder.

Cao Ai giggled and leaned on Huang Jun and smirked too. "Well, he is the school's male God. It isn't that surprising that school flowers dance around him daily"

"Not to mention that he is approachable and friendly too. His kindness is kind of a part of his charm. Look at those girls swooning at those smiles" Chia Biu added fuel to the fire.

"Cheng Xiu has been single for years now. It would be great if he pick a companion too. You won't mind don't you Feng Shi? After all, you don't have any romantic feelings for him anyway. You said it yourself, your just friends" Sima Lin goaded farther as he made his way towards his girlfriend and away from those hearty-eyed females.

"I'll see if he dares" Feng Shi hissed inside her mind. With a stride, she made her way towards Cheng Xiu, the girls immediately parting ways and shivering from the cold aura she excludes despite the warm smile plastered on her face.

"Nice one man" Huang Jun high-fives Sima Lin as they agreed.

Xiao Wang trailed behind his master loyally head raised proudly daring the females to try and interact her master's way.

Cheng Xiu smiled at Feng Shi when he noticed her coming his way but before he could talk Feng Shi immediately grabbed his arm and pulled him up.

Cheng Xiu noticed the displeasure on her face so he obediently lifted himself to not trouble her as it would be impossible for Feng Shi to be able to do so otherwise.

With a helpless face, Cheng Xiu tried to remember how he had offended her this time. The last few times that he had somehow done something that angered her, she didn't talk to him for weeks and that was quite bothersome considering the number of times they spent together with their friends.

"Hey, Princess..." He greeted her awkwardly trying to not trigger her further but was cut off when Feng Shi hugged his arms and looked at him with a wronged expression making him feel guilty for whatever reason that displeased her.

"Cheng Xiu you promised that you would teach me codes and programs. So why are you flirting with others instead?" She asked ever so sweetly but her tone had an edge in them that says 'Your answer better be good or else.

Having realized the problem, he immediately hugged her and ruffled her hair. "How can my princess think that? I was just putting my things inside my bag and was going to you but I just got held back a bit. You know that you are the only girl for me. I would be sad if you misunderstand me like that again" He laughed slightly trying to prove to her that the others mean nothing to him and that he was just being polite.

"So you don't like them more than me? Sima Lin said that you were going to pick someone from them" She complained 'innocently' while smirking inside. That will teach them to try and play her again.

Cheng Xiu glared at his friend for causing him unnecessary trouble while Sima Lin was speechless. 'This ungrateful wolf still has the heart to blame him after years of trying to get the sheep in his arms!'.

"Of course, I won't. How could they compare to you? Feng Shi, you will always be my favorite girl. No one would be able to change that". Cheng Xiu claimed his eyes showed his loyalty and devotion.

"I loved you the moment I saw your smile the first time and I fell for you harder each time we meet. You are my light, my princess, and my love. Even if you don't love me in return, I am willing to stay by your side as your friend as long as you don't push me away. Feng Shi, you will always be my favorite girl, the one that owns my heart. I would never give it to someone else even if I have to wait a lifetime for yours in return" Cheng Xiu thought to himself gazing into her eyes lovingly. If only he has been the courage to say that to her. To be able to put to words the feelings held hidden deep within his heart.

His gaze momentarily flashed with longing before hiding it with his usual smile.

Ever since the day in the park, something within him ignited and the love he felt burned brighter and hotter every day. However, he knew that Feng Shi only sees him as a friend and he doesn't want to burden her with his love or strain their friendship with his selfishness.

Feng Shi smiled and looked at the other girls proudly staking her claim.

"Then let's go, we are just wasting time here anyway," She said before dragging him away from the girls who were gazing at her in jealousy.

Hmp, they can dream with their eyes open but this boy belongs to her. In their previous lives and their current as well as their future lives. There is no way she is letting this thief who stole her heart go away that easily.

But, playing around with him is fun. So... She can't be blamed for wanting to fully experience how their love would prosper in this new world. They have countless lives to spend together, to begin with.

Their lives as Feng Shi the movie queen and Qin Si, the tyrannical businessman may be over but their love story has just begun a new chapter, a new beginning and she is in no rush to reach its peak as the journey towards it is worth the wait.

She wants to enjoy the surprises this new life brings and the possibilities it holds.

As they walked towards the library girls gazed at her in envy while the boys glared at Cheng Xiu in jealousy.

Others ship them together.

The sight of them together is not new but their hands held tight to one another is something that had never happened before as Feng Shi had made sure to keep a proper distance as to not make them be misunderstood by their schoolmates.

However, the current Feng Shi had no qualms because she wants everyone to know that he is hers despite their current lack of status.

Cheng Xiu also did not mind since he also wants everyone to back off of Feng Shi.

Seeing the boy's jealous glares, Cheng Xiu smiled and tightens his hold on her soft hands taking not as to not hurt her.

The more envious the others the prouder he was. That's right, even if they can get close to her, only he can get this close to her.

Perhaps his love is not that hopeless after all.

Cheng Xiu secretly glanced at Feng Shi before sneakily closing the distance between them. Feng Shi never liked it when he gets too close as others could make a mountain out of an ant hill but contrary to his belief, Feng Shi just glanced up at him, smiled, then leaned on his arms.
