Transmigrating Into a Book, the Villain Becomes the White Moonlight!

39: Chapter 39 She’s got eyes bigger than a star”What are you guys up to? So energetic this early in the morning.” Su Bai strolled over and naturally slapped a hand on Zhou Feng’s shoulder.

When he first transmigrated, he indeed had no friends because there was no one he could relate to.

There was no helping it; with the body of a child but the soul of an eighteen-year-old youth, how could there be any common ground?

But after over a year, surrounded by these simple-minded eighteen or nineteen-year-old boys, there were always some common topics to chat about, and he gradually found a few classmates he could talk to.

”Brother Su is here!” Zhou Feng turned around, a lingering smile still on his face. ”We’re just chatting.”

At this moment, there were indeed very few people in the classroom, just a scattered few.

But there are always those students who arrive early; besides copying homework, their purpose is to gather and join in the fun.

”You guys are really bored,” Su Bai said dismissively, though the corners of his mouth curled up slightly. ”But starting next week, you probably won’t be bored anymore.”

”Hmm? Why? Is there something good happening?” Zhou Feng leaned in curiously.

”A computer game is about to be released; I’ve had my eye on it for a long time.” Su Bai gave a slightly mysterious smile. ”I guarantee it’s something fresh that you’ve never played before.”

”Tch!” a Little Fatty nearby immediately made a disdainful sound. ”And here I thought it was something big! A computer game? Isn’t it just like Street Fighter? I’m already tired of those. Is it some toddler game from 4399?”

In this era, while computer hardware isn’t too outdated, the game industry is indeed lackluster. Many people’s understanding of computer games is still stuck at an extremely primitive stage.

”It can’t be a console game, can it?” Little Fatty suddenly sat up straight, his fleshy palm slapping the desk. ”Which domestic manufacturer would want to touch that unprofitable stuff nowadays?” He was clearly an expert, and a spark of curiosity instantly ignited in his eyes.

In this novel’s world, the PS console is far from being widespread. For most families, a home computer isn’t a necessity either.

”You know quite a bit.” Su Bai raised an eyebrow at Little Fatty, his tone leisurely. ”But you guessed wrong. It’s a PC game, launching officially this Saturday morning. As for the trailer... you probably won’t see it until Friday.”

If someone else had said this, it would certainly be dismissed as boasting. But coming from the young master of the Su Family, the weight was entirely different.

Zhou Feng keenly caught the key point and leaned forward. ”It wouldn’t happen to be a new game developed by your family’s conglomerate, would it?”

”You could say that.” Su Bai admitted frankly, a hint of cunning flashing in his eyes. ”I’ve already tried the closed beta version; the quality is quite stunning.”

”What’s the game called?” Little Fatty asked impatiently, his breathing quickening.

”league of legends.” Su Bai slowly uttered those words.

Hearing this, Zhou Feng frowned. ”Then I’d have to get a computer... It’s not a matter of money; I’m just afraid my family won’t agree.”

”Are you stupid?” the boy next to him couldn’t help but interject. ”Go to an internet cafe, of course! How many restrictions would you have playing at home?”

”league of legends...” Little Fatty repeated the name over and over, his eyes growing brighter. ”Just hearing the name sounds very imposing.”

”Of course.” Su Bai shamelessly tilted his chin up. ”I named it myself.”

Taking a classic from his previous life as his own and bragging with these buddies was part of the fun of school life.

”This is a 5v5 online battle game.” Su Bai dropped another bombshell.

”But there are only four of us here.” Little Fatty scratched his head and counted, looking troubled.

Zhou Feng suddenly winked mischievously. ”Isn’t there still Class Monitor Lin Wan? With your relationship with her, wouldn’t it be easy to fill the spot?”

”I have absolutely nothing to do with her.” Su Bai glared at Zhou Feng before explaining, ”Even though it’s a 5v5 battle mode, you can still have a great time playing as a party of four or a team of five.”

”Su Bai, give us the real scoop. You and our great Class Monitor Lin... how far have you two actually gotten?”

A boy nearby leaned in closer, nudging Su Bai with his elbow, his face full of that ”you know what I mean” kind of smile.

Upon hearing this, Su Bai’s brow immediately furrowed, his face a picture of incomprehension. ”Wait, who did I hear this from? Why are all of you so certain that there’s something going on between me and Lin Wan?”

He was truly puzzled.

From freshman year to now, sophomore year, it’s been over a year in total.

Even though they both carried the weight of a betrothal arranged by their elders years ago, and the reputation was quite loud, what was the reality?

Aside from having to interact a bit recently because of a certain charity event, the two of them were essentially parallel lines.

If he had to say there was a relationship, it would probably only be as desk mates—and the kind of ’plastic’ desk mates who would draw a line down the middle of the desk and forbid each other from crossing it.

As for Lin Wan, the destined female protagonist of the original novel, Su Bai was resistant to his core, upholding the principle of avoiding her at all costs.

”Does this even need to be heard from anyone?” Zhou Feng spread his hands, his expression quite helpless.

”Young Master Su, do you have some misunderstanding about your own popularity in school? In the entire school, from the principal and directors down to the cleaning ladies, who doesn’t know about the history between the Su Family’s young master and the Lin Family’s daughter?”

”Even if there’s this status set by the older generation, it doesn’t mean I have anything to do with her personally.”

Su Bai tried to forcibly change these people’s ridiculous perceptions, even resorting to personal attacks. ”Besides, with Lin Wan’s face, do you guys really think she’s pretty?”

As soon as these words came out, the topic exploded.

These young men in their restless youth, besides discussing games, were most passionate about rating which girls in their grade were pretty.

Any topics discussed after that would have been enough to get us in serious trouble.

”She’s not pretty?” Little Fatty was clearly stunned by the question, his eyes wide.

”Brother Su, are you okay? Lin Wan is a constant fixture in the top ten of the School Beauty Rankings! That was decided by an anonymous vote of the entire student body!”

Could the public’s eye be wrong?

”First, I have nothing to do with her. Second, even if there was something, it’s impossible for me to have anything with her. If I ever do have something with her, I’ll eat this desk right here on the spot!” Su Bai declared solemnly.

”Ahem, ahem.”

As Su Bai was speaking, Zhou Feng covered his mouth and started coughing. Little Fatty to the side also had a strange look in his eyes. ”Ahem, I think... Class Monitor Lin is quite pretty.”

”She’s pretty my ass,” Su Bai retorted.

At that moment, a voice so cold it could practically drop icicles rang out from behind Su Bai:

”Su Bai.”

”Hmm?” Su Bai instinctively responded and turned his head.
