What Right Do You Have?

Lu Keyan hadn't expected Gu Xiao to come.

How could someone like Gu Xiao come to a place like this?

"What is that weird smell? It's disgusting." Feng Ji kicked over the trash can, scattering the tissues inside across the floor and making himself feel even more nauseated.

Lu Keyan turned around.

He was fairly tall, and looking Feng Ji straight in the eye like this gave Feng Ji the unwelcome illusion that they were equals.

Was he worthy of that?

Displeased, Feng Ji thrust out his leg and kicked hard at Lu Keyan's calf.

He was just a penniless beta. What right did he have to meet his eyes?

Lu Keyan seemingly had no instinct to resist at all. With that kick from Feng Ji, he toppled over lightly.

As though his height of nearly six foot two were merely for show.

When people fell, they would instinctively reach out and quickly grab the nearest solid object.

Both of Lu Keyan's hands found purchase.

On Gu Xiao's waist.

Gu Xiao wore a shirt made from expensive fabric today, shimmering like rippling water as he moved. When sunlight shone through it, a section of his waist showed beneath.

Now, the shirt's fabric was abruptly pulled taut, outlining the curve of his waist.

Slender yet resilient.

Full of strength.

The next instant came a lovely, inimitable scent of irises.

With a thud, Gu Xiao finished the kick Feng Ji had left incomplete, sending Lu Keyan straight into the corner.

After a muffled grunt, Lu Keyan struggled to his feet, his hands trembling.

Whether from excitement or fear, it was impossible to tell...

"Young Master Gu, I'm sorry," Lu Keyan apologized meekly. "I didn't do it on purpose."

He held his hands behind his back and gently rubbed his fingertips together.

How lucky-

He'd actually touched Gu Xiao's waist.

It had felt tens of thousands of times better than he'd imagined.

Gu Xiao wanted nothing more than to chop his hands off.

Unfortunately, he couldn't really stand the sight of blood.

The sight of Murong Xuan's blood-covered face earlier had nearly made him lose control.

"If you're going to apologize, you should show some sincerity," Gu Xiao said expressionlessly. "You expect me to forgive you with a few weightless words?"

Feng Ji and Fu Huai both frowned.

Their eyes were fixed unblinkingly on the honors student's hands.

How dare he!

How dare he touch Gu Xiao's waist?

They wanted to snap his fingers one by one, to chop his hands right off!

Lu Keyan seemed to realize something and shrank back nervously.

He managed to scrunch his six-foot-two frame into one big lump.

How ugly, Gu Xiao thought. Even a good-for-nothing like this could have SSS mental power?

"Young Master Gu," Lu Keyan raised his head, his face full of restraint, and said shakily, "whatever you want me to do, I'll be willing."

Before Gu Xiao could speak, Feng Ji scoffed. "You? A beta without a shred of mental power? What can you do? That kid Lin An was right. You're not even qualified to be A-Xiao's dog."

Fu Huai shook his head and said helplessly, "Why put it so harshly? This student is a person. How could he be a dog?"

"How kindhearted of you," Feng Ji said snidely.

"Such a beautiful face, growing on a beta with no background whatsoever. What a waste," Fu Huai said gently. "Fortunately, betas can't get pregnant."

Feng Ji gave Fu Huai an odd look. "A-Huai, don't tell me you've taken a fancy to this beta. A person can't—at least, shouldn't—have such terrible taste."

Fu Huai ignored him and looked at Gu Xiao instead. "A-Xiao, isn't it time you told this student what you want him to do?"

Fu Huai's words nearly made Lu Keyan's heart leap out of his chest.

What did that mean?

Had Gu Xiao... taken a fancy to him?

Was it his perfect face that had caught his eye, or his family background with no connections whatsoever...?

This identity really could get him close to Gu Xiao!

"You need to seduce someone," Gu Xiao said unhurriedly. "If you can do it, I'll revoke your red card."

Feng Ji was astonished. "Red cards can be revoked? A-Xiao, the game can't just come to an abrupt halt, can it?"

"Do you have a problem with that?"

Feng Ji mimed zipping his lips shut. "No."

Lu Keyan paid no attention to their exchange and instead asked nervously, "Who?"

Gu Xiao chuckled. "You'll find out."

Gu Xiao had smiled at him... For a moment, Lu Keyan's very soul reeled.

It took tremendous self-control not to crawl forward and beg Gu Xiao to smile again.

"That's it?" Feng Ji was speechless. He glared at Lu Keyan and demanded viciously, "Hey, honors student, your roommate Murong Xuan got a red card. Don't you have anything to ask?"

Feng Ji's question made Lu Keyan's gaze darken.

Of course he wanted to ask.

He wanted to ask why Gu Xiao had turned his attention to someone else before he was even finished dealing with him.

But now, he no longer wanted to ask.

He knew Murong Xuan had gone to see Gu Xiao, but now Gu Xiao had come to see him in person.

Gu Xiao had chosen him, not Murong Xuan!

"If it's Young Master Gu's wish, then naturally he has his reasons." Lu Keyan lowered his eyes obediently. "Young Master Gu's decisions are always right."

Feng Ji rolled his eyes.

Where had this lunatic come from? Even Lin An didn't bootlick this hard.

He couldn't understand why someone with so little backbone would dare offend A-Xiao in the first place!

Gu Xiao had little interest in this flattery.

He simply took off the shirt Lu Keyan had touched and tossed it onto the floor.

It revealed a black tank top.

Lu Keyan's expression changed dramatically!

His eyes stared fixedly at Gu Xiao's exposed flesh.

The muscles of his arms were firm and full, their well-trained, athletic lines seemingly kneaded into shape by Nüwa's gentle, painstaking hands.

Gu Xiao's skin was very fair, too.

Fair and lustrous, like a piece of fine jade.

Lu Keyan felt warmth at his nose and reached up to touch it. When he caught the lingering iris scent on his palm, his nosebleed flowed even faster.

Even Feng Ji took half a step back, saying in revulsion, "Does this pauper have some kind of disease?!"

Fu Huai, however, gave an amused smile. No wonder A-Xiao had chosen this honors student.

His lust really did give him sky-high audacity.

Daring to get a nosebleed over A-Xiao...

Gu Xiao looked at Lu Keyan expressionlessly. A few seconds later, he left without a word.

There was one thing he could now confirm.

After transmigrating into this book's world, something strange had appeared inside his body.

He still didn't know exactly what it was.

But clearly, people were now very prone to coveting him.

Coveting him?

Gu Xiao gave a mocking smile. Sure enough, living another life did not come without a price.

But that was fine. This way, it wouldn't be boring, would it?

Lu Keyan was alone in the dorm room again.

His hands were still trembling. Looking at the black shirt before him, his Adam's apple bobbed. He wanted to reach out, gather the shirt into his arms, then hide it away.

But his hands were stained with his nosebleed.

Still, that was fine. This way, wouldn't his scent mingle with the scent of Gu Xiao's pheromones...?
