WALMART RINGS
BREAK UP
[Entering new world...]
[Transferring memories...]
June felt the familiar tingling over his body as he received the memories.
[Mission Intro : The main leads of the story are heir of different multimillionaire companies who are forced to marry each other]
Typical rich family's tradition, June thought with a mental eye roll.
[Host, you are going to enter the supporting actor's body who is the female lead's boyfriend before she gets married with the male lead. Before the marriage, both the main leads agree to divorce after they inherit their own companies. The female lead convince the supporting actor to wait for her once she gets divorced.1
However, the main leads soon fall in love and withdraw their plan to get divorce. And live happily thereafter.
In the end the supporting actor is left alone, waiting for the female lead.]24[...transferring memories complete.]
[Host, your mission is to stop the marriage between the main leads and accumulate hundred percent favorability points from either of the main leads. Good luck, host.]1
June Weng opened his eyes and looked around his surrounding—something he did whenever he entered a new world.
He found himself in a warm cafe by the window, with a cup of mocha clasped in his hand.
He turned towards the window and caught sight of his reflection, looking back at him was a man with porcelain skin and wide set of electric blue eyes. His butterscotch hair was tousled and fell over his forehead in soft curls.
He glanced at the watch on his wrist and frowned slightly, the female lead of the story—Clover Xiao had asked him to meet here. But twenty minutes had passed, she had not arrived yet.
June sipped on his mocha and stared out of the window scanning through his new body's old memories and wondering how he could met with the male lead. The old owner of the body had only seen the male lead—Noah Zang in televisions, newspapers and magazine covers.
The tingling of bell bought June out of his thoughts and he craned his neck to look at the entrance.
Clover Xiao's coffee brown eyes swept through the cafe and landed on June's face with a smile. She quickly made her way towards his direction. Before sitting down, she lightly placed a kiss on June's lips.
June mentally cringed at the kiss and unconsciously, wiped his lips with the heel of his palm. Thankfully, Clover was busy shrugging out of her coat to notice.
"How was your day, babe?", Clover smiled brightly at June, as she tucked her honey blonde hair behind her ears.
June gave her a quick smile, "The usual, nothing special."
He placed his chin on his hand, "What about you? Why did you called me here so suddenly? You could have come to my apartment directly."
"About that..." Clover slowly began. She played with the ends of her sleeves—something she often did when she was nervous.
"Daddy made an unexpected announcement."
June raised an eyebrow, "What did he say?"
Clover closed her eyes and took a deep breath. She reopened them and looked into June's blue eyes, "Daddy wants me to marry the youngest son of Zang company."
Zang company was the most influential and powerful company in the country. It's branches stretched out of the country, in foreign countries, earning them millions in just a year.
The youngest son of the Zang company was the future CEO. Anyone who marries into the Zang household was sure to become wealthy and powerful in a blink of an eye.
June straighten up, "What...erm what did you say?"
"Of course, I refused," Clover scoffed but slowly frowned at June's raised eyebrow,"At first." She grumpily added.
June waited for Clover to tell more. Sighing, Clover gave in, "I can't defy daddy's words, being the only daughter and heir of the company. I..." she rested her head on the table and let out an tired sigh.
A sudden wave of sympathy hit June as he saw a vulnerable Clover. Through his travelling, he knew that children from high classed family had a lot of things to deal with. They grow fast and see the world for what it is faster. They have to learn to watch out for their backs and manage business and even make sacrifices for it.
He reach out and tousled Clover's hair softly, "Hey, it's okay," he spoke softly.
Clover raised her head and looked at June, who had been the source of her warmth and relaxation whenever work became a burden to her.
She had met June during her high school days and fell in love with him, immediately. Ever since then they had been together.
[Female lead's favorability point towards June Weng +15, current favorability points 85%]
June froze at the increased favorability points. He took his hand away from Clover's hair and cleared his throat, "What happened next?"
Clover rested her right cheek on her hand, "Mom fixed me a date with Noah. I just came after meeting him."
"Oh," June muttered, unsure of what to say. Clover continued, "Noah and I agreed to divorce with each other once we get hold of our own companies."
June nodded, "When...when are you guys marrying?"
Clover pursed her lips before answering, "We will have a spring wedding. And we are getting engaged on New Year's Day."
Both of them fell silent. Clover anxiously looked at June wondering what he was thinking. Is he angry? Sad? Heartbroken? Upset? What would happen to them now? Are they going to break up?
However, June Weng was counting the months he had to stop the engagement between the main leads. October, November, December he counted mentally. June smiled. He had plenty of time.
Clover finally spoke, unable to bear June's silence, "After divorce, we can still be together. We don't have to break up, June." she reached out to hold June's hand.
June looked at Clover, "I don't think that is a good idea, Clover. Having affair with someone else after being married."
"But—"
June shook his head lightly, "Let's break up," he spoke softly. He registered the hurt in her eyes and added, "It's the best option."
Clover bit her lips as she avoided June's eyes, "...why? We love each other right?"
"Yes, I do love you," June said,the lie came as smooth as a butter, the old owner of this body loved her not him.
"But you should think about the future too. What if you and your husband fall in love with each other and decide to withdraw the divorce? Or your family catches us? In the end you and I will end up getting hurt."
June remembered how heartbroken the pervious owner of this body was, when Clover broke up with him after years of waiting. How she coldly stared into his eyes and said they should not be together. How the eyes which harboured warmth in his heart and soared butterflies in his stomach looked so cold and distant. The hurt. The hopelessness.
What hurt even more was the previous soul wouldn't even hate her after her betrayal. He loved her too much that there were no space to hate her.
Now that June and his system has entered this body, he was going to make sure it is blessed with the ending it deserves and stray it away from the unwanted hurt and drama he went through.
Clover's eyes shot up at June's,"I would never do that to you! I love you!"
June gave her a soft smile, "Of course, you love me, you silly girl." He reached out to pat her head, "But we don't know what will happen in the future."
June held Clover's gaze as he softly said, "It's for the best. Let's break up."
June could see Clover's face morphing into a shocked and hurt expression. Her lips quivered and she covered her mouth with a trembling hand when a sob escaped her lips. She quickly avoided June's eyes and hung her head low.
[Female lead's favorability point towards June Weng-20 current favorability points: 65%]
June sighed. As much as he wanted to avoid this he knew it was inevitable. If he don't break up with Clover now then she will end up casting him out of her life, once she falls in love with the male lead.
"Don't cry, Clover," June said in a quiet voice which resonated in Clover's ears , making the pain in her heart worsen, "You should know this is for the best."
Clover knew what June was trying to say. She bitterly realised that they were doomed from the first. Their world were different. They were different. They didn't belong with each other from the start.
Clover dabbed her eyes with her sleeve and sniffled lightly. She looked up at June's bright eyes which she fell in love with everytime she saw them. She forced a smile, "I understand. I am sorry for being selfish."
June shook his head, "You were doing this for us," he squeezed her hands lightly, "But it is not going to work anyway."
"You are right," Clover agreed with a nod.
June smiled.
He got up and grabbed his jacket. He looked at Clover who was still fiddling her fingers and lost in thought, "I will be going then."
Clover looked up at him. Taking in the image of the man she had fell in love with when she was sixteen. She remembered how nervous and shy she was when she asked, if they could go home together after school for the first time.She remembered how he had smiled beautifully at her and agreed. She remembered how he held her hand as they walked side by side, sharing an ice cream. She remembered how her heart felt when he kissed her for the first time. She remembered it all. And it hurt.
"Goodbye June."
June slipped into his jacket and gave her a smile, which almost looked sad,"Goodbye Clover."

PLEASE VOTE!
AND DO COMMENT TOO!Those who have already read it I am sorry hehe. I have an account in w*****d too with the same name.VOMIT IN HIS CAR The deafening music became a faint background music as June thought about how to met with the male lead. After breaking up with Clover, he had wandered inside a random club. He rested his chin in his hand and frowned. His slender finger circling around the rim of his drink. Should I go and get a job in his company? "Tough day, eh?" June glanced at the man who spoke to him and his lips immediately curled into a smile, when his system notified the man as the male lead of the story– Noah Zhang. June would not study his face because of the flickering and dimmed lights of the bar. However, he would make out the hallow cheeks and chiseled jawline. Something about the way Noah's voice sounded made June believe that he has a goofy smile pasted on his face.
June scrunched up his nose at the smell of the vomit, when he unbutton the suit jacket. June started to undress Noah and tried hard not to be impressed by his rock hard chest and perfectly washboard stomach.Why is June's body so frail and small?He is a man too, right?When June was unbuckling Noah's belt, he froze when Noah's smooth hand encircled his small wrist. June snapped his head up.Noah had sobered up after puking. He had grabbed June's had on instinct when he felt someone tugging on it. However when he opened his eyes he did not expected to get attacked with those brilliant blue eyes.Noah's lips parted in surprise when he saw those doe like eyes. A hint of nutmeg seem to leak out from the dark iris as they swirled lazily over the blue that surrounded them. He felt himself get unintentionally mused by those blue eyes which reminded him of the endless blue sky."
DISCREET NOT DISCREETJune was sitting on his desk in the staffroom where he was working as a substitute teacher. It was lunch time and June was eating his sandwich. He sunk his teeth into his sandwich and savoured the cheesy texture. June felt his phone vibrated against his pocket. He looked at his phone and tapped on the text which was from an unknown number.Unknown: Hey, June! It's Noah, what you doing?June: Something tells me you don't have a lot of friends.Noah: I do have a lot of friends.But you are special because you are my new friend!June: So, once you find a new friend you will toss me away?Noah: No I won't! You are special! You looked after me when I was drunk! I
HE IS MY DATEJune walked into the bustling restaurant wondering how Noah-a guy born with a sliver spoon in his mouth knew about such a common and lively place. He scanned the place and scurried his way towards Noah who was looking at his phone."Hey," June greeted, he pulled the chair opposite to Noah and sat down."You came," Noah gave June a charming smile and slipped his phone inside his pocket.June smiled back, "Of course, I came." He was unaware of the effect his smile had on Noah's heart.Noah cleared his throat, "Do you like the place?" he paused, "I picked it."June blinked, "Oh you picked the place yourself?"Noah nodded."Huh," June grunted,"I thought-""Mr.Weng?", a disembodied voice called.June whipped his
NINE QUESTIONS"This is so nice!" June said as he stretched and flopped on the park bench.Noah chuckled and sat next to June, "Walks like this always refreshes your mind."After their dinner, Noah offered for a walk around the park. They had been walking for twenty minutes, enjoying the cold autumn air and the crunches of those dry orange leaves which was scattered around the path.June breathed in deeply and nodded his head, "You are right, I feel so refreshed, right now."Both of them stayed quietly, the distant chattering of people in the park fading into their ears as June and Noah enjoyed the silence between them.Noah glanced at June, and his smile widen immediately, June's butterscotch hair was wind tousled and those blue eyes looking darker under the streetlight. His plump lips were playing a small smile
MORNING KISSEWhen the doorbell rang, June placed his laptop on the coffee table and opened the door.A tired looking Noah smiled at June. His usually slicked back dark hair looked messy. His grey eyes looked dull and there were dark circles beneath his eyes."Hey," June spoke slowly as he opened the door wider, "What happened? You look terrible.""I am so tired," Noah muttered as he closed the door behind him. He eyed June's small shoulder and immediately rested his forehead on it.June stiffen slightly at the contact but then relaxed slowly. He ran his small hand over Noah's back and muttered, "What is it?""I hate my work," Noah muttered, he paused,fuck it,he thought, "And I missed you." He added.He felt June slap his bicep lightly. "Hooligan," June muttered but
"HOW?"Clover Xiao walked out of the White Sawn hotel after a meeting when a pair of men caught her eyes.She quickly instructed her assistant to bring the car. When her assistant was out of sight, she took off her shades and looked closely.Her lips parted in surprise when she saw Noah Zhang in a causal clothing, holding several shopping bags, with the last person she expected–June Weng who was empty handed.They stood by the bus stop opposite to the White Sawn hotel. June giggled at something Noah said. Clover couldn't tear her eyes away from the scene infront of her.Her mouth hanged open in shocked when Noah looked around and quickly leaned and pecked June's lips, who turned red and slapped a smug looking Noah's arm.Seeing her future fiancee with s
HE KNOWSJune felt Noah's arms around him tighten. It was almost afternoon but they were still in bed. June buried himself deeper in Noah's chest, taking in his scent. Noah placed his chin on top of June's head and closed his eyes.June wouldn't feel his lower body and remembered what happened yesterday. He felt himself go red. Despite the pain, he shuffled slightly, and planted a soft kiss on Noah's lower jaw. Noah hummed contently and he kissed June's head again, his soft hair tickling Noah lightly.June licked his lips, he knew they were both stalling the conversation they need to have after the incident with Clover. June was thankful that Clover didn't pulled a very dirty trick but he can never be sure."Noah?" June spoke his name softly.Noah pulled June closer and hummed in response.
