Chapter 6: Stalemate
Chapter 6: Stalemate
[Ding! After the underlings were beaten, the Host chose to inform the teacher, which slightly altered the original plots direction. Received 200 Villain Points.]
[Ding! The Hosts Villain Points exceed 500. The System Shop will automatically be enabled.]
As soon as Song Zhenyu left, Wang Haoran received a message from the system.
That was expected.
Even after his underlings were beaten up, he instructed them to inform the teacher of it. This action deviated from the Villains regular route, which led to the change in the terrible plot.
200 Villain Points.
He happily accepted them.
Another interface, the System Shop, was added to his mind alongside his attribute panel.
There were no items displayed in the shop. The only option was the lottery.
Show me all the items that can be bought with my 600 Villain Points. Wang Haoran told the system.
[Answering to Host. 600 Villain Points cannot be exchanged for any of the items. The cheapest item in the shop requires 1000 Villain Points.]
[It is recommended for the Host to choose the lottery. Each draw only costs 500 Villain Points. The Host has a chance of drawing super luxurious rewards, but the Host might also end up with nothing.]
I still have to save up 400 Villain Points before I can get the items I need. Lets just proceed with the lottery then. Wang Haoran wanted to try his luck.
A roulette wheel appeared in the Shop interface and began to spin. The results will be shown soon.
[Ding! Congratulations, Host, for being lucky enough to draw the Love Affair Eyes worth 1500 Villain Points. Does the Host want to accept them right away?]
It wasnt hard to understand what the reward was through its literal meaning.
A man with Love Affair Eyes' would be able to easily attract a womans attention.
This was indeed a blessing!
Of course, Wang Haoran chose to accept and use it immediately.
After accepting it, he took out his phone to take a selfie. He found that there was no noticeable difference in his eyes.
After checking his attribute panel, Wang Haoran discovered that his Charm value had risen from 198 to 268.
This increase of 70 must be because of the Love Affair Eyes.
Why not check how different my eyes are from before?
Wang Haoran got up to switch positions with Xu Muyans deskmate to discuss a math problem that he hadnt discussed earlier.
He continued to discuss math problems with Xu Muyan.
Wang Haoran felt Xu Muyan staring at him more often, and when she did, her gaze would linger.
"What are you staring at me for? Is there something on my face?" Wang Haoran asked knowingly.
"No, I just think your eyes look really nice." Xu Muyan couldn't help but say it.
Xu Muyan blushed as soon as she realized what she said, swiftly averting her gaze.
It was too cute seeing a beautiful young girl being bashful.
[Ding! Xu Muyans, one of the heroines, favorability of the Host increased by +10. The current favorability value is 20 (Very Friendly).]
[Ding! Chu Bais Protagonist Halo has decreased by -10. The Hosts Villain Halo slightly increased by +10]
It seems that this Love Affair Eyes is quite practical, not bad.
There were also changes in the attribute panel.
[Host: Wang Haoran]
[Strength: 89]
[Charm: 268]
[Villain Halo: 129]
[Villain Points: 100]
[Skills: None]
Even after the morning class ended, Chu Bai and the other four had yet to come back.
Wang Haoran left for the Moral Education Department to watch the commotion.
A disturbance was heard at the door of the Moral Education Department.
The problem had yet to be resolved, and both parties were at a stalemate.
Wang Haoran calmly stood at the door.
The Deputy Director of the Moral Education Department saw that some students were coming to witness the commotion and wanted them to leave, but when he saw Wang Haorans figure, he swallowed his words.
That was the influence of the Villain on the school. Everyone, except for the Protagonist, would want to be on good terms with him.
After all, Wang Haoran had a good family background and a good education.
The cause of the fighting issue was this:
Fan Jian and the other two underlings said they blocked Chu Bais way after school because he wasnt pleasing to the eye, leading to their fight.
In the eyes of Song Zhenyu and the Deputy Director, both sides were wrong.
Fan Jian and the other two were at fault as they had chosen to fight first.
Chu Bai was at fault as he continued beating them even after overpowering them, leaving them with bloody noses and swollen faces.
Both sides were wrong.
Why not punish them both then?
That was because Fan Jian and the others wanted to report the situation to the police.
That was instructed by Wang Haoran, of course.
Even though Fan Jian and the other two started it, Chu Bai attacked them too ruthlessly. That was beyond defense.
That reason alone was enough to call the police.
But in such a situation, the school wouldnt be willing to do so.
Once you call the police, the matter would be exposed to the public, which would lead to the schools reputation being tarnished.
Because of that, the Deputy Director and Song Zhenyu could only choose to try and have Fan Jian and Chu Bai reconcile.
Fan Jian and the other two said they would no longer pursue this matter only if they were permitted to slap Chu Bai back.
But how could Chu Bai agree?
Which Protagonist wasn't so violent?
He would rather let Fan Jian and the others call the police.
Of course, the school was not pleased.
The two sides were stuck, unable to agree.
Chu Bai, why are you so stubborn? Why dont you agree? It would become a much more serious matter if it reached the police. You might get a criminal record and be expelled from the school. Do you still disagree?
The Deputy Director was a fierce-looking man. His name was Yan Zan, and he was around 40 or 50 years old. He began threatening Chu Bai after realizing that the situation was in a deadlock.
Deputy Director Yan, if you do that, Chu Bais future will be completely ruined. You cant. Song Zhenyu immediately objected.
Wang Haoran stood silently at the door, watching the commotion.
Teacher Song was a hot-tempered woman whose attitude and appearance was similar to that of a person about to slaughter someone just a moment ago. However, she now had a troubled look across her face. That was her way. She always treasured her students.
A very kind-hearted person.
Teacher Songs character resembles that of a heroine.
Teacher Song, I have already given him an opportunity. It is him who is arrogant. I have to be harsh Yan Zan was determined.
He tried his best to persuade Chu Bai, and even after wasting so much of his time, Chu Bai couldn't appreciate his kindness.
At that moment, he had lost his patience and didnt bother listening to Song Zhenyu.
Song Zhenyu has been at the school for no more than two or three years. She had neither seniority nor background.
Yan Zan didnt care about her opinion at all.
Whats more, is that he always has the schools best interest in mind.
If the School Representatives learned of this situation, they would approve of his approach.
"Is it that simple? Just expel him?" Wang Haoran felt it a little too hard to believe.
If Chu Bai was expelled from the school, his chances of contacting Xu Muyan and Song Zhenyu would be zero. That would mean he would no longer have any chance of conquering the two heroines.
There would be a drastic drop in Chu Bais Protagonists Halo.
And wont Wang Haorans Villains Halo increase dramatically?
Wont Chu Bai remain as worthless as he is now?
Wang Haoran suddenly saw an old man with a gray beard walking towards the Moral Education Department as he was thinking.
Wang Haoran recognized him.
That was the Principal.
Why did the Principle suddenly come here?
Wang Haoran was confused.
Typically, the Principal was hardly seen by anyone. The Vice Principals handled most affairs, and many students didnt even know him.
It was a bit strange for him to appear here so suddenly.
Will he
Wang Haoran suddenly had a bad feeling.
