241 - I Don’t Want to Be Turned Into the Female Protagonist by the System

# Chapter 241: Accepting the Mission Su Qi was surprised when she heard the voice of the system. Was the mission name “Making a Sensation” really suitable for her? She considered herself quite inconspicuous, just a small, invisible presence. However, despite the task seeming a bit out of sync with her usual style, Su Qi thought about it and decided to check the mission details. After all, there was no harm in looking. **Mission Description**: Before the end of next Friday's literary conference, increase your fame on the Su University campus so that the majority of students recognize you. Current on-campus recognition (60%/90%). **Mission Reward**: A set of premium silk pajamas made from the silk of the Region Moth. (One-of-a-kind) **Failure Penalty**: Sensitivity +10%, Weakness +1 Upon reading the mission summary, Su Qi was a bit taken aback. It seemed somewhat challenging. On the award day, she only had about ten minutes. How could she make so many people remember her in such a short time? It seemed too difficult. At that moment, she heard Principal Lin Xiang Dong say, "Su Qi, considering your exemplary performance this time, I'll give you ten minutes for a speech. It's a great opportunity for practice, so prepare well!" Lin Xiang Dong had intended to pat Su Qi on the shoulder—his way of encouraging students—but was interrupted by Wang Zi Jin. "Don't worry, Principal. I'll be sharing a room with Su Qi in the future. Such a small task is no problem!" Hearing her wife Wang Zi Jin respond so readily, Su Qi didn’t object. After all, it was the principal's request, and she couldn’t refuse. Moreover, rejecting it would make her lose face in front of her wife, Wang Zi Jin. After some thought, she nodded and smiled at the principal. However, her large eyes reflected not joy but disbelief and surprise. Seeing Su Qi's outwardly polite but inwardly contradictory expression, Lin Xiang Dong found it somewhat amusing. Still, as the principal, he maintained his composed demeanor and suppressed his laughter. After giving a few more instructions about the room change, he left. Once he was gone, Wang Zi Jin turned back to look at her beloved. At the moment, Su Qi's face held an expression of melancholy and nervousness. Wang Zi Jin could relate to this. Speaking in front of others truly takes a lot of courage initially. She had been the same during her first public speech. However, once that barrier is broken, there comes an indescribable sense of achievement. That feeling was so alluring that it drove her to become the student council president. Wang Zi Jin wanted to secretly hold Su Qi's hand to offer some encouragement. Su Qi, sensing her wife's intent to hold her hand, instinctively wiped the nervous sweat from her palm onto her skirt. Wang Zi Jin saw Su Qi's little action. While it wasn’t the most graceful of moves, she found it incredibly heartwarming. Holding Su Qi's delicate and smooth hand, Wang Zi Jin gently squeezed it and said, "I’m the host of the event that day, so I can help you if anything goes wrong. No need to feel pressured." Hearing this assurance from her wife, Su Qi felt that it would be unreasonable to be overly anxious. She, having been a male before, didn’t want to embarrass herself in front of her significant other. With that in mind, Su Qi said, "I’m not nervous at all, really, don’t worry." Wang Zi Jin felt Su Qi's slender hand slightly trembling even as she tried to maintain a calm facade. To Wang Zi Jin, this was absolutely adorable, much like a young boy trying hard to be brave in front of his crush. Unaware of her wife’s thoughts, Su Qi was contemplating whether to accept the mission now that she agreed to the principal's request to deliver a speech. Considering the mission only required her to ensure that her schoolmates remembered her name, she figured she could simply mention her name more during the speech to leave an impression. With this in mind, Su Qi realized it wasn’t as difficult as she initially thought and accepted the mission. Although the failure penalties seemed quite severe—adding sensitivity and weaknesses—Su Qi was more intrigued by the reward: a garment made of Region Moth silk. What would it even look like? The mysterious name “Region Moth” certainly sounds grand and almost like something from another world. In her virtual adventures, Su Qi had drawn creatures like the Region Moth before, but their silk lines were always imaginary. Seeing that Su Qi had accepted the mission, the system chimed in with, "This is an advanced silk from another world, produced by the Region Moth. Because these moths are quite ferocious, their silk is extremely rare!" Su Qi hadn't expected it to be an artifact from another world. Was it really okay to bring it into this reality? She wondered if she might end up in a research lab because of this garment. Sensing Su Qi’s concerns, the system reassured her, "Don’t worry, host. When it comes to sewing, I’m super skilled! It’ll be just like real-world clothes. Plus, these pajamas are super comfy to wear." Hearing this from the system, Su Qi couldn’t help but look forward to that promised comfort. However, it was a bit early to dwell on such thoughts. After all, she still had 30% left to complete the task. If she failed, not only would she get nothing, but she’d also face penalties. Just then, a teacher from the logistics department approached and said, "Su Qi, you can move to the girls’ dormitory later. Do you want to retrieve the things you left in the boys’ dormitory?" After thinking it over, Su Qi nodded. After all, the girls' dormitory she was going to didn’t have any bedding. Plus, she needed to collect her old clothes and some computer parts from her previous life. Before long, the teacher gave Su Qi a slip which she could present to the dorm supervisor, allowing them to guide her back to the dormitory. In reality, Su Qi could still enter the boys’ dorm without this slip. The management for boys’ dorms was often more relaxed compared to the girls'. Wang Dong Xu’s girlfriend had visited their dorm before, after all. Still, since she was moving, Su Qi decided it would be best to alert the dorm supervisor. With Wang Zi Jin linking arms with her, the two strolled under the tree-shaded walkway, heading toward the boys’ dormitory. As they walked, Wang Zi Jin asked, "How exciting is it to stay in a room with other boys?" Hearing this, Su Qi felt torn. As a boy previously, living in the boys' dorm was just routine, daily life—simple yet fulfilling. But after her transformation, her brief stay there was indeed exciting. The problem was she was about to move out soon. So was it exciting or not? Seeing Su Qi in deep thought and caught in dilemma, Wang Zi Jin realized her question might not have been well-phrased. As Su Qi’s significant other, Wang Zi Jin knew Su Qi was still an innocent, inexperienced "young cabbage," having never been in a real relationship. With only theoretical knowledge and no practical experience, how could there be any discussion of excitement? So she rephrased her question, "What’s it like in the boys’ dormitory?" Relieved by this question, Su Qi began recounting the everyday life of the boys’ dormitory, a place she was quite familiar with after living in it for a year. She spoke of each room’s unique mix of body odor and snoring, socks that grew mushrooms during summer break, and underwear forgotten in corners that sprouted green moss. As they strolled under the tree shade, June’s air filled with floral scents, sunlight casting playful shadows on their faces, they both wore bright smiles. Beautiful memories always inspire longing. On the playground, some boys playing basketball paused, turning their attention to the duo strolling by. They were surprised to note that the two were indeed heading towards the boys' dormitory.
