Su Wanqing bit her lip and hesitated before asking in a low voice, "Lin Mo... what's your situation in the game right now?
If... if I find you, will you be safe?"
She was probing.
Probing Lin Mo's strength, probing the value of aligning herself with him.
Lin Mo looked at her and suddenly smiled.
This woman calculated every word and had a purpose behind every action.
"I've changed my Occupation," he said calmly.
Su Wanqing's hand tightened abruptly.
"Changed... changed Occupation?" Her voice trembled slightly. "It's only the second day of the game, and you've already changed your Occupation?"
"Mhm."
"What Occupation?" she pressed eagerly, her fingertips clenched tight.
Lin Mo paused before finally uttering two words calmly: "Lord."
Su Wanqing froze on the spot.
The expression on her face instantly solidified, her beautiful eyes widening bit by bit, her breathing suddenly becoming rapid, her chest rising and falling slightly.
"Lord?... Is it that Legendary Lord?!"
She murmured to herself, as if suddenly remembering something, her face changing drastically, her voice rising a few decibels. "That global announcement yesterday... the first person to change to a Legendary Lord..."
She suddenly looked up, her gaze locked onto Lin Mo, and blurted out, "Was it you?!"
She hadn't controlled the volume of her voice, drawing the attention of several classmates around them.
Su Wanqing hurriedly lowered her voice, but the shock in her eyes did not diminish in the slightest. She leaned close to Lin Mo's ear and pressed, "Lin Mo, the person in that global announcement, was it really you?!"
Lin Mo neither nodded nor shook his head.
But this perfectly timed silence was the clearest answer.
Su Wanqing's hand trembled uncontrollably, and this time, it wasn't a pretense of weakness, but genuine shock.
She looked at Lin Mo, her eyes filled with an extreme complexity.
Intertwined were disbelief and shock, unconcealed envy, the relief of having survived a disaster, and an increasingly firm resolve.
I've latched onto the right person.
This was the only thought in her mind at that moment.
The person who was the world's first to change into a Legendary Lord was sitting right next to her, and she had already gotten involved with him...
This was simply a tremendous opportunity!
Su Wanqing took a deep breath, forcing herself to suppress the surging emotions.
She slowly released Lin Mo's hand, but her body leaned closer, almost brushing against his arm.
"Lin Mo..." Her voice became exceptionally soft, with a hint of coquettishness.
"When I find you, you have to protect me.
I'm just a weak woman, in that kind of world... I really won't survive."
As she spoke, she gently rubbed Lin Mo's arm with her shoulder, her movements intimate and natural.
Lin Mo could clearly feel her soft body pressing against him and the warmth of their skin touching.
"We'll see," he said calmly.
Su Wanqing's eyes lit up instantly.
"I'll be very well-behaved! I'll do whatever you ask me to do!
My combat ability might not be great, but I can handle internal affairs, logistics, and social negotiations!
As an art student, my aesthetic sense is definitely top-notch, and I can help you with the planning and design when your territory needs to be developed!"
Lin Mo looked up at her.
Su Wanqing's cheeks flushed slightly, it was hard to tell if it was from excitement or shyness.
She suddenly raised her hand, her fingertips lightly tracing the back of Lin Mo's hand, her movements slow and alluringly suggestive.
"And..." Her voice dropped extremely low, the end of her sentence carrying a faint, almost imperceptible hint.
"I'll make you very comfortable. Yesterday... was just the beginning.
I'm a fast learner; whatever you teach me, I'll pick it up quickly."
Her words were already quite direct.
Lin Mo narrowed his eyes.
Lin Mo narrowed his eyes, clearly feeling the gazes of the boys around him, which had long since escalated from envy and jealousy to a desire to devour him alive.
But he didn't care.
"Class is starting," he said.
Su Wanqing smiled charmingly, withdrew her hand, and obediently sat down.
But she didn't return to her own seat. She sat next to Lin Mo, opened her textbook, and acted as if it were the most natural thing in the world.
The old professor walked into the classroom as the bell rang, and his lecture began.
Su Wanqing listened with exceptional focus, occasionally lowering her head to take notes.
However, her knee would subtly brush against Lin Mo's leg, that fleeting, ambiguous touch making his heart flutter.
Lin Mo leaned back in his chair, his hand resting on the edge of the desk, his posture casual and relaxed.
She glanced at him quickly from the side, a sly smile twinkling in her eyes.
Then, she quietly reached her hand under the desk and gently touched his hand with her fingertips.
Lin Mo clasped her hand in return.
Su Wanqing's face instantly turned crimson, but she didn't pull away. Instead, she tightened her fingers slightly, interlocking them with his.
The two of them held hands under the desk like this, appearing more proper than anyone else on the surface, their eyes focused on the blackboard, occasionally jotting down a few notes.
This feeling... was thrilling!
Lin Mo had to admit that Su Wanqing knew exactly how to stir a person's heart.
This secret communication in a public setting was far more alluring than any naked temptation in private.
As soon as the bell for the break rang, Su Wanqing let go of his hand, her eyes curving into a smile. "I'm going to the restroom, wait for me to come back."
She stood up and left, her steps light and quick.
As soon as she was gone, Zhou Ming darted over from the back row, his face filled with shock.
