Chapter 002 I'm Such a Pathetic Sap

Could a successful逆袭 (role - reversal) really bring so many benefits?

Chen Yuan was astonished.

For an instant, he regarded Xu Lele as if she were a huge chunk of delicious meat.

Xu Lele: Favorability - 1

Xu Lele: Favorability - 1

The favorability level above Xu Lele's head dropped by another two points. It had originally been - 50, and now it became - 52.

This negative favorability actually indicated a rather high level of disgust.

"What are you staring at? You're just a loser trying to act rich. How dare you ask me for my WeChat? Why don't you take a good look at yourself in the mirror?"

Xu Lele looked at Chen Yuan with disdain. He was wearing slippers, shorts, and a T - shirt, with a messy hairstyle. His features were somewhat refined, but he was skinny, resembling an online - gaming - obsessed teenager. He was the very epitome of a loser.

The total value of his entire outfit probably didn't even reach two hundred yuan.

Who was Xu Lele?

She was the third - ranked beauty in the Art College of Hu University. The number of boys chasing after her could form a line stretching from the school's main entrance to the back street. Among them were many outstanding campus heartthrobs and rich second - generation kids.

She couldn't be bothered with this kind of penniless guy.

"Beauty, don't rush to reject. Adding each other on WeChat won't hurt you. As long as you agree, I'll cover all your expenses for today!" Chen Yuan said with an inexplicable sense of confidence.

He realized that as long as he had money in his card, he really didn't feel nervous at all. He even stood a bit more upright.

"Hey! Isn't this the guy who's always delivering breakfast to Lin Shutong downstairs at the girls' dormitory? How dare he ask Xu Lele for her WeChat?"

"Damn! Has this guy been hit by something? He actually claims he'll cover Xu Lele's expenses for a day. He probably has no idea how terrifying girls can be when it comes to spending money!"

"And why did he have to pick Xu Lele to ask for WeChat? She's a well - known gold - digger in our school!"

"Xu Lele is not only a gold - digger. She constantly mingles with various rich second - generation guys, has countless backup boyfriends, and is far more skilled at playing with emotions than Lin Shutong. This devoted admirer couldn't even handle Lin Shutong. If he runs into Xu Lele, he'll probably be left with nothing but bones!"

Some students seemed to recognize Chen Yuan and Xu Lele, and they immediately started whispering among themselves.

······

"Are you serious?"

Xu Lele asked with a cold laugh.

"I'm serious!"

Chen Yuan replied calmly.

"Fine, I want to treat all the classmates here to snacks and drinks today. You pay for it."

Chen Yuan didn't say anything. He just picked up his phone and started scanning the payment code.

"Alipay received - 50,000 yuan!"

"Everyone, help yourselves. Classmate Xu Lele is treating today. Don't be shy!"

The moment the electronic voice announced the receipt of 50,000 yuan at the cashier, everyone was stunned!

It seemed that no one had expected that Chen Yuan would actually take out a huge sum of 50,000 yuan to treat everyone just because of Xu Lele's words.

Of course, if the person taking out this money was a rich second - generation, perhaps everyone wouldn't be overly shocked.

But the key was that this guy was Chen Yuan!

A well - known devoted admirer in Hu University.

A devoted admirer spending 50,000 yuan to show off just to get Xu Lele's WeChat. Wasn't this guy out of his mind?

The point was that even if he showed off like this, she might not think any better of him.

This was really a low - level way to show off.

At this moment, Xu Lele was also a bit surprised.

The guy with the messy hair in front of her didn't seem like someone who could afford to take out 50,000 yuan at all.

But he looked completely nonchalant, as if 50,000 yuan really meant nothing to him.

"Now, can I add your WeChat?"

"What's the hurry? Today's activities are just getting started. Come with me!"

Thirty minutes later.

Chen Yuan and Xu Lele arrived at Wanda Commercial Plaza.

"Come on, I've had my eye on a Gucci bag recently. I don't think you'd mind buying it for me, would you?"

Xu Lele asked with a smile.

"Not at all!"

Chen Yuan replied with the same smile.

How could he possibly turn down such a great chance to spend money?

Just as they entered the Gucci store, Chen Yuan didn't expect to run into someone he knew.

"Brother Junkai, does this bag look good on me?" Lin Shutong was carrying a new Gucci bag, looking at herself in the mirror and turning around more than a dozen times.

"It does look good, but Shutong, recently my dad has cut down on my allowance. He thinks I'm too wasteful, so he only gives me less than 100,000 yuan for living expenses each month. I'm really short on cash these days. How about we go look around elsewhere? Don't worry, I'll definitely buy it for you next time!" Huang Junkai promised casually.

Although he sounded confident, he had no intention of actually buying it.

He wasn't like those losers who would scrimp and save to spend tens of thousands of yuan on designer bags and iPhones for girls.

Wasn't it more worthwhile to use that money to improve his own image?

Once he established his status as a rich second - generation, girls would be eager to spend money on him.

"But... I really like it!"

"Shutong, I really don't want my girlfriend to be too materialistic. I hope she likes me for who I am, not for my money. Do you understand what I mean?" Huang Junkai's face suddenly turned serious, and he spoke in a solemn tone.

"Okay, okay. I won't ask for it. I'm not that kind of material - girl!"

Lin Shutong looked at Huang Junkai with a flattering expression and reluctantly put down the bag.

Just as she finished saying this, Xu Lele and Chen Yuan walked into the Gucci store one after another.

Their eyes met.

Lin Shutong was taken aback.

"Chen Yuan, why are you following me? I've never seen anyone as shameless as you. I've already said I don't like you. You're really disgusting!"

As soon as Lin Shutong finished speaking, Chen Yuan was immediately filled with anger. Even an ordinary person has some temper. Wasn't Lin Shutong going too far?

He had spent three years doting on her, treating her like the most precious thing.

But she treated him like dirt.

Just because he liked her, could she trample on his dignity like this?

Thinking back on all the things that had happened, he really felt it was all in vain.

"I'm not following you. I'm here with Xu Lele to buy a bag. Since we've broken up, you have no right to interfere in what I do!" Chen Yuan replied stiffly. From this moment on, he no longer wanted to have anything to do with Lin Shutong.

But just then, a system prompt sounded again in his mind.

"Ding! Devoted Admirer Action initiated!"

Name: Lin Shutong

Age: 21 years old.

Height: 163cm

Weight: 48kg

Appearance Score: 7.8 points.

The girl's favorability towards the host: - 10 points

Bind the second devoted - admirer relationship. When the girl's favorability towards the host exceeds 95 points, the role - reversal is successful, and the other party will become the host's devoted admirer.

Upon successful role - reversal, a 10% reward of the Devoted Admirer Credit spent will be given.

Reward Enhancement Points: 20 points (Enhancement points can enhance the host's physical attributes, including constitution, spirit, talent, strength, perception, etc.)

Chen Yuan never expected that seeing Lin Shutong again would trigger the re - binding of the devoted - admirer relationship.

Could it be that deep down in his heart, he still hoped to turn things around with Lin Shutong?

Damn it! I'm such a pathetic sap!

However, reversing the situation with Lin Shutong would reward as many as 20 enhancement points, four times more than Xu Lele.

This was enough to show that Lin Shutong held a special place in Chen Yuan's heart.
