Quick Transmigration: I Was Cannon Fodder But Became the White Moonlight

After that day, Chen Su and Xu Qian exchanged contact information.

Young people recover quickly, and with timely medication and rest, Chen Su's cold was cured in just a few days.

She was grateful for Xu Qian's help, and the two gradually became closer.

Xu Qian, who has a cheerful personality, knew that Chen Su was under a lot of pressure in her senior year of high school, so she warmly invited her: "I'm back at the club as a teaching assistant. You can come and see me anytime. Besides, aren't you under a lot of pressure in your senior year of high school? Come over and have some fun to relax."

Chen Su accepted the offer.

After school, she started going to the club more and more often.

Feeling bad about taking up space for no reason, she would always help tidy up the scattered billiard balls, wipe the table, organize the cues, and do whatever small things she could to repay the club owner's kindness.

She had wanted to thank the kind boss in person several times, but Xu Qian always told her, "The boss is away on a business trip and isn't in the city."

Chen Su had no choice but to give up, feeling regretful.

However, deep in her heart, there lay a secret expectation that she herself was reluctant to admit—

She hoped to bump into Shen Que at this club.

Logically speaking, this is a place Shen Que frequents, but strangely, she hasn't seen him even once in a week.

On this day, Shen Que surprisingly came to school.

As soon as the school bell rang, Chen Su watched him walk out of the school gate with several boys, seemingly heading towards the road leading to the club.

Chen Su felt a sudden surge of joy. She had planned to help out at the club today, and this would be a good opportunity to walk the same route as him.

Even if he doesn't go to the club, just a short distance along the same route is fine.

As she had done many times before, she quietly followed behind him, keeping a distance that was neither too close nor too far.

This time, Shen Que seemed completely unaware, walking straight into the familiar billiards club without turning back.

Chen Su was overjoyed; he had indeed come!

She suppressed her racing heartbeat and followed him inside.

The club was dimly lit, with voices mixed with the crisp sounds of billiard balls colliding.

Chen Su spotted the group of familiar figures at a glance.

Zhou Qian, Sun Wei, and Li Feng were all people she had met before, and Xu Qian was among them.

Everyone was gathered together, chatting and laughing.

Shen Que sat alone on the sofa in the corner, looking down at his phone, occasionally chatting with the people next to him, as if the noise around him had nothing to do with him.

Chen Su instinctively wanted to turn around and slip away.

Given her current relationship with Shen Que, she would definitely feel very awkward seeing this group of people.

However, just as she took a step, she met Zhou Qian's gaze.

When Zhou Qian saw her, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes. Her gaze then darted between Shen Que, who was engrossed in his phone, and a cryptic smile played on her lips. She deliberately raised her voice and called out:

"Hey, Chen Su? What brings you here?"

This sound instantly attracted everyone's attention.

Several pairs of eyes turned to Chen Su, who was standing at the door.

Even Shen Que, who had been keeping his head down, raised his eyelids and glanced at her indifferently.

His gaze was calm and unwavering, as if he were looking at a complete stranger, devoid of any emotion. He then lowered his head and returned to his phone.

Meanwhile, the eyes of Sun Wei, Li Feng, and the other boys were filled with amusement, inquiry, and undisguised curiosity.

They clearly remembered the unusual familiarity between Shen Que and Chen Su during the summer vacation, and now, seeing the obviously tense atmosphere, they sensed something unusual.

Chen Su suddenly felt embarrassed and didn't know what to do with her hands and feet.

At this moment, Xu Qian walked over quickly, naturally put her arm around Chen Su's shoulder, and explained to everyone with a smile, "Su Su is my good friend. She often comes over to keep me company after school and helps me out."

She cleverly found a plausible reason for Chen Su's appearance.

Upon hearing this, Li Feng whistled and chimed in, "Since you're here, let's play together!"

Chen Su instinctively wanted to refuse.

Sun Wei chimed in, "That's right, don't be so polite! Let Brother Que lead you through another round!"

He seemed not to have grasped the situation yet, and as soon as he said that, the surroundings became quiet for a moment.

Zhou Qian had already sensed the awkwardness between the two. She immediately walked to the armrest of the sofa next to Shen Que and sat down, leaning slightly towards him in a somewhat intimate manner, and said in a sweet voice:

"No way, I want to be in a group with Shen Que today!"

Shen Que didn't say a word, and didn't even lift his eyelids, still looking at his phone screen.

His silence, in this situation, is usually tantamount to tacit agreement, a well-known rule.

The atmosphere instantly became somewhat subtle and awkward.

All eyes were subtly scanning between Chen Su and Shen Que, filled with various speculations and scrutiny.

They dared not openly look at Shen Que; their probing, curious, and even slightly pitying or spectator-like gazes fell more heavily on Chen Su.

It made her feel like she was being pricked by needles, and every second was incredibly agonizing.

Xu Qian sensed her discomfort, squeezed her shoulder firmly, and laughed, "Then I'll team up with Chen Su! You guys better watch out, we're a great team!"

Chen Su glanced at Xu Qian gratefully and nodded.

The groups were quickly decided. Zhou Qian and Shen Que were in one group, Sun Wei and Li Feng were in another group, Chen Su and Xu Qian were in another group, and there was one more group.

The rules remain the same: a points-based system where the losing team receives a penalty.

Game start.

First, there were Shen Que and his group.

Zhou Qian's billiards skills are indeed remarkable. Her posture is elegant, her cueing is decisive, and her accuracy is good, which drew several cheers.

Shen Que seemed a bit distracted today, and his performance was only average, far from the precision and sharpness he displayed during the summer vacation. However, his basic skills remained intact, and he handled the crucial balls quite well.

Sun Wei and Li Feng worked together seamlessly, cracking jokes and maintaining a consistent level of skill.

The other spectators also made their own contributions, creating a lively atmosphere at the pool table.

Chen Su gripped the cue stick tightly and took a deep breath.

Her skills have improved a lot since the summer vacation. Her movements and postures have been corrected by Shen Que, and they are standard and stable. Although she still cannot control complicated positioning, she can already score quite a few simple straight shots and angled shots.

Xu Qian watched her from the side and sincerely praised, "Su Su, you're amazing! You're getting better and better!"

Chen Su pursed her lips, silently replying in her heart: I have to thank Shen Que for this; he taught me everything during the summer vacation.

But she didn't say anything, only gave Xu Qian a faint smile.

At the end of the game, Sun Wei and Li Feng, with their excellent teamwork, won first place.

Chen Su and Xu Qian unfortunately came in last place and need to be punished.

Sun Wei immediately rubbed his hands together, shouting that he wanted revenge: "Xu Qian! Last time you made me put chocolate on my WeChat Moments, now it's your turn! An eye for an eye!"

Xu Qian has a straightforward personality and is true to her word. She laughed and picked up a blue chocolate bar to draw on her cheeks, which made everyone laugh.

Then, everyone's eyes turned to Li Feng, waiting for him to punish Chen Su.

Li Feng was the boy who gave Zhou Qian a ride during the underground race last time. He sized up Chen Su, then glanced at Shen Que, who seemed indifferent to the situation, as if weighing the pros and cons in his mind. Finally, with a slightly malicious smile, he spoke:

"As for Chen Su's punishment... keep it simple, just find a member of the opposite sex present and make eye contact for one minute."
