Chapter 28
Chapter 28 Moonlight Burns
In that moment, Fu Chengque felt what it meant to have a “chaotic mess inside her head”!
What does that mean?
What does he mean? What does Wen Yu mean by “liking me”?
That kind of meaning?
How should I respond? What should I say?
Why isn’t my mouth cooperating…
The moonlight burns.
Fu Chengque lowered her head, feeling her heart pounding fiercely.
Amidst the chaotic thoughts, a message sounded:
[Congratulations, task complete!]
[You have received rewards: Mathematics ability +5, Memory enhancement +2, Physical fitness +10; Perfect task special rewards: Comprehensive learning ability +20, Dance +20, Body correction +10, Fair skin +5, Understanding of performance increased by 15%]
Fu Chengque didn’t even have time to think.
Walking home with Wen Yu, each holding their respective gifts, they walked a familiar path at an unfamiliar pace.
It wasn’t until they reached the doorstep of her home that her mood gradually calmed down.
“I’m going back.” Fu Chengque waved the notebook, “I still think your gift is more important. I’ll make up for it with a better one next time.”
“Then I’ll look forward to it.” Wen Yu smiled.
“Okay! Let’s go~”
The girl returned home with a smile on her face and quickly tidied up, rolling into bed at lightning speed.
She buried her head in the pillow for a long time.
Her mind kept replaying Wen Yu’s words just now.
Was it really that meaning?
After calming down, it seemed that Wen Yu wasn’t confessing; he was actually expressing his own emotions. It was the boldest, most fervent, and most direct expression of feelings, without reservation or false pretenses.
Fu Chengque could feel the resentment in Wen Yu’s long speech. He was angry at her initial gradual distancing, and he blamed her even more for suddenly turning back into his life when he had already gotten used to the absence of his childhood sweetheart.
It was overbearing and domineering, without considering her feelings at all.
There was also a hint of unwillingness in his words, but it seemed like he had come to terms with reality.
Although Fu Chengque didn’t think there was a huge gap between them now, there had been a faint trend in that direction before.
“So, he’s studying hard now…”
But she also sensed—
Wen Yu seemed to be starting to forgive her.
Therefore, if his words were misunderstood as a confession, then their Qingmei relationship would come to an end.
What she needed to do was not to foolishly shout for Wen Yu to come to the rooftop and say, “I’m sorry, I only want to study right now,” or “I also think you’re great,” but just like this—
Return to childhood sweetheart.
Phew—

[Cat’s Language]
“Genius!”
Fu Chengque exclaimed. After several tasks, her comprehensive learning ability had reached “genius.”
“Well deserved! Empress Chengque, rise now!”
She raised the notebook high, as if a hero brandishing a sword of dragon slaying. “With such assistance, how can I not conquer the world! Hehehe…”
At this moment, the picture of thousands of miles was slowly unfolding before her eyes…

Wen Yu’s bedroom.
Wen Yu lay on the bed, particularly puzzled.
Suddenly, very suddenly.
“I went outside to pick up a gift, chatted for a while, and inexplicably completed a system task…”
There were still no signs.
Appearing out of nowhere, and disappearing into thin air.
If it weren’t for Wen Yu’s increasing academic performance and the cat named Banben constantly responding to his words, he really wouldn’t feel the existence of the “system.”
This task provided ample rewards and one chance for a major random event.
Moreover, the system was very thoughtful, giving a waiting time of 3 hours for the major random event, while last time it was only 3 minutes!
After some thought, Wen Yu shouted into the air:
“Major random event.”
[Major random event confirmed.]
[Congratulations, you have received rewards: Mathematical ability +10, Memory enhancement +4, Physical fitness +20]
[You have received a special reward for the major random event: Comprehensive learning ability +55, Piano +12, Looks +15, Understanding of music increased by 30%]
Looks!?
Wen Yu touched his face.
As for looks, Wen Yu already had them.
As the most handsome boy in Class Four, Wen Yu, nobody dared to say otherwise.
Haven’t you noticed that there are already girls who want to send love letters? It’s a pity, a big pity. The task reward changed from Body correction +20 and Fair skin +10 before the major random event to Looks +15, which was a big loss.
The comprehensive learning ability increased by 55 points directly. Although he didn’t know how much he had in total, judging from his rapidly improving grades, it seemed like a lot.
With these extra 55 points, he was almost guaranteed to be in the top five before the midterm exams.
As for Piano +12 and a 30% increase in understanding of music, Wen Yu didn’t think it was of much use.
He could still listen to music and occasionally comment on it. As for the piano, he didn’t know how to play at all. But in his previous life, he had the idea of buying an electronic piano when he had money from his future job, so he could try it in this life.
Anyway, the rewards were pure gains, whether more or less.
Wen Yu went to sleep blissfully, and in his dream, he saw himself holding a big red seal, and wherever he stamped it, golden light would burst forth…

The next day, both bosses were in high spirits.
They met at the corridor entrance, jokingly greeting each other.
“Oh, President Wen, good morning!”
“President Fu, just eating! Look at this pancake, authentic! Auntie didn’t even tell me today, I had to get up early to come to your place for a spot.”
“Don’t worry, take a look at these, I brought a few for President Wen to eat while they’re hot!”
Fu Chengque took out a bag of pancakes, fragrant and delicious.
Wen Yu’s appetite was piqued. “Wow, we Northerners really love this kind of thing!”
“Aren’t you from Jiangcheng? That’s the South.”
“Where are you getting that from? I’m definitely from the North.”
“Alright, you’re from the North. Tasty, right?”
“Delicious!”
“Of course, I’ve tasted each one personally, so yours is definitely delicious.”
Wen Yu’s eating motion halted, and anger gradually appeared on his face.
Fu Chengque was delighted to see this, “Hahaha…”
But her laughter stopped abruptly when she saw Wen Yu lower his head and take another big bite.
“Thank you, President Fu, it tastes even better now.”
“…”
Fu Chengque snorted and walked away.
Wen Yu continued to eat the pancake happily. Did this little girl still want to play with him?
Perhaps she didn’t know that in his previous life, when he ate with several male dormitory mates in university, they always joked around to add some fun to the meal. Whoever couldn’t handle it would leave, but Wen Yu always remained unfazed until the end.
At school, Wen Yu thanked several people for their gifts one by one.
Fang Ling suddenly approached.
“Wen Yu, Wen Yu, what did Fu Chengque give you? It’s so mysterious.”
“It’s a precious gift representing friendship.”
“What a lousy answer.”
“Gifts shouldn’t be talked about. I appreciate it myself. I also like yours very much, thank you.” At this moment, Xiao Gua walked past Wen Yu and headed outside the classroom. Wen Yu asked again, “What’s wrong with Xiao Gua? She didn’t seem too happy just now.”
“She had a fight.”
“With whom?”
“Fan Liming, her boyfriend.”
“What happened?”
“Not too sure. Don’t bother asking either. Just go and comfort your Chengque.”
Fu Chengque, who was eavesdropping with great interest, unexpectedly received a blow and felt wronged.
“You guys talk about your stuff, don’t drag me into it…”
The leisurely study time was quite pleasant.
At noon, Wen Yu’s phone hidden in the desk suddenly vibrated. It was a message from Lou Xuanli with good news…
