I found myself in a book, transformed into an incredibly beautiful Passerby A.
This was a serialized infinite flow story on a certain platform, featuring a male lead who was decisive and had no romantic interests.
I watched as the male lead took his seat.
He said, "Miss Lu, I..."
I interrupted, "No need to say more. We're a perfect match, the ultimate pairing, the best in the world."
He looked confused. "But I..."
He was unemployed and broke.
I quickly cut him off. "I happen to have a little money."
Just when I thought that clinging to him would ensure my survival, in a dark corner, the male lead grabbed my neck and kissed me, calling me his good girl while his eyes turned red, urging me not to look at anyone else but him.
I swallowed hard; he was getting crazier by the minute.
The music in the café was soothing and enchanting, yet my hand holding the cup trembled uncontrollably.
I had crossed over into a book I had read before bed—Mysterious Game.
This was an ongoing infinite horror story, and the only female supporting character was a true spoiled princess who started off by going on a blind date with the male lead.
As expected, soon he would be late and reject me, leading to me splashing coffee in his face.
...
I stared at the coffee in my hand and downed it in one go.
Just you wait; I've finished my drink. Let's see how you handle the next splash.
"Are you Miss Lu?" The man sitting across from me was handsome, with dark eyes that revealed no emotion. "I'm Zhou Bai, sent by Aunt Lu."
The Aunt Lu he mentioned was his kind-hearted landlord, and I was the niece of Landlady Aunt, who had a bit of money but was otherwise unremarkable, blessed only with beauty.
Zhou Bai gathered his thoughts. "Miss Lu, I think we..."
I understood; he was about to reject me.
I reached out and grabbed his hand. "But I think we're a perfect match."
Zhou Bai: ?
Yet he politely pushed my hand away. "Miss Lu, my family isn't well-off; I'm just a poor student."
"That's great! That makes us even more suitable. You have no money, and I happen to have a little," I said, extending my hand again to grasp Zhou Bai.
Was I pulling a man?
No, I was pulling my future benefactor.
It was my destiny!
Because in a month, I would be pulled into an infinite game space and never return.
Thinking of this made me shiver, and I tightened my grip.
"Is it that I'm not good-looking enough?" I blinked at him, trying to leverage the little advantage I had.
Zhou Bai immediately withdrew his hand, coughing into his fist. "Miss Lu... is very beautiful."
With that, his ears turned a shade of red.
Wow, the young male lead is surprisingly adorable!
"Then why are you still rejecting me?" I mumbled in complaint, my eyes filled with anticipation as I looked at him.
"I'm just afraid... Miss Lu might regret it."
"How could that be! Brother Zhou Bai is such a great person; how could I ever regret it? Or do you not trust me?" As I spoke, tears began to fall.
For the sake of survival, I had to keep it together.
Under the watchful eyes of the café patrons, Zhou Bai finally agreed to me.
"I said I would take care of you, here." Saying this, I confidently pulled out a card from my small wallet and pushed it towards him.
Zhou Bai remained silent, but a hint of amusement flickered in his cold gaze. "You plan to take care of me with your Easy Card?"
??? Wait, girl, why would you, a young lady, go shopping with an Easy Card?!
Just as I was about to retract the card and pull out another one, Zhou Bai snatched it away.
"Then I guess I have no choice but to comply." Seeing my bewildered expression, he kindly added, "We go to the same school."
Well, I suppose that counts as having a glimmer of hope for survival?
