Lin Xuan, the school bully who terrified everyone at Lezhi Private Boys' High School, was the protagonist.
He embodied all the cool and awesome qualities: a good family background, handsome looks, and most importantly, immense military strength. He had also been the national champion of the school's fighting competition.
Once, he beat up a classmate who had spread rumors about him in front of all the teachers and students, and then the protagonist (Gong) was suspended for a month.
If he could be convinced to act, it would definitely make that annoying Chu Lingyi disappear for good.
However, according to Ruan Yao, this was a great opportunity for the Gong protagonist and Shou protagonist to meet for the first time.
"According to convention, a hero who saves the beauty must be a plot with the highest level of love at first sight," Ruan Yao raised his head and puffed his chest in the sea of consciousness.
The system raised two light sticks to call him: "Come on, come on!"
Ruan Yao smiled at Yu Che, who had brought him the good news. His round almond eyes curved like two shimmering rays of moonlight.
"Thank you, Yu Che."
The boy with the cunning eyes turned red from his neck to the back of his ears. Fortunately, at that moment, the sun was setting outside, and the orange-red light of the evening made it impossible to see that he was so shy.
"No, it's nothing. Should we talk about this in our relationship?"
He patted Ruan Yao’s slim back and smiled wholeheartedly.
He looked like a cheerful boy who was just having fun, with no plans in mind.
Although Ruan Yao felt uncomfortable being touched, he didn't mind.
"Ruan Yao, there’s a basketball game tonight between the first and second-year students. Do you want to come watch?" Another tall boy, with slightly darker skin, came and enthusiastically invited Ruan Yao.
Ruan Yao took a moment to react before realizing this was Xu Qin, a member of the sports committee in his class and the captain of the school's basketball team.
"No." Ruan Yao immediately rejected the invitation from the sports committee, in line with the original owner's irritable and arrogant personality.
"Do you have something to do tonight?"
The sports committee suddenly showed a disappointed expression.
Honestly, it was a bit strange for a boy as strong as a bear to look like a stray puppy.
Ruan Yao hated seeing such a pitiful expression.
"I know, I know." Ruan Yao softened his heart and made a disgusting face.
But the beautiful young man, no matter what expression he had, was still pleasing to look at. Even the sharp furrow between his brows made one feel sorry for him.
The tall boy immediately laughed joyfully. "I'll wait for you, and I'll make sure they give you the best seat when the time comes."
Ruan Yao helplessly nodded at the ordinary boy.
"System, why is this classmate so nice to me, the villain?" Ruan Yao was a bit confused. He was a genius, but his understanding of human emotions wasn't much better than the data flow in the system.
Maybe that's why he failed every mission.
The system wracked its brain and gave a more reasonable explanation: "Perhaps because of the Ruan family's power, they have to please you. Maybe everyone just scolds you in their hearts."
"That makes sense."
Hey, I really am a bully and a villain.
Ruan Yao leaned back in his chair and sighed in satisfaction.
Yu Che was beaten by Xu Qin, and his expression wasn’t good. Ruan Yao had actually agreed to Xu Qin’s invitation to watch the basketball game.
When a man goes to watch a boys' game, does he know what it means?
Yu Che stared at Ruan Yao, who was oblivious, with complicated eyes, feeling helpless in his heart.
He didn’t know anything.
The Ruan family protected him so well that by the time they arrived at school, no one deliberately told Ruan Yao about their emotions because of their dirty secrets.
Isn’t it more exciting if you could scribble on a plain piece of paper and fold it into whatever shape you like?
"What are you looking at, Yu Che?" Ruan Yao slowly realized why Yu Che was still standing next to him.
"No, it’s nothing." Yu Che suddenly snapped back to reality and turned around, embarrassed.
"Then why are you still standing? Go." Ruan Yao hated having people follow him, so he grabbed a piece of paper from the table and threw it at Yu Che.
Lightly, Yu Che reached out and caught the paper ball.
Is it the same as hitting someone? That kitten was soft and gentle.
"Ruan Yao, let me go with you to the basketball game," said Yu Che.
Ruan Yao gave him a strange look. "Does it have anything to do with you?"
Though Yu Che wanted to keep following him, he could only leave sadly to avoid offending Ruan Yao.
It was unimaginable how enthusiastic the boys were about basketball, especially in a closed boarding school where all the students were male. The basketball game could be said to be a very popular event that attracted the whole school’s attention.
As soon as Ruan Yao entered the basketball court, he was engulfed by the heat, and his face turned ugly.
Soon, someone noticed Ruan Yao.
More and more people glanced at the young man walking by with a cold face, thinking they weren’t attracting attention, while lowering their heads and browsing the campus forum on their phones.
— Xu Qin, a sophomore at the school, said he invited the princess.
— Damn, he’s talking nonsense. Why would the princess come to meet him? Who does he think he is, Lin Xuan?
— Doesn’t the princess hate basketball?
— Damn, he really came! I saw her at the entrance!!
— Really! I saw her too! he’s so beautiful!
A basketball player suddenly got pushed in front of Ruan Yao by the crowd. He probably didn’t expect to stand right in front of Ruan Yao, and his whole body froze.
Ruan Yao raised his thick black brows impatiently. "Is something wrong?"
The handsome boy, who might have just played basketball, looked at Ruan Yao and blushed like a ripe persimmon, stammering, "N-no, it’s fine."
"Go away, you're blocking my way." Ruan Yao stuffed his hands into his pockets, looking like a proud little bully.
The boy, clearly two or three years older than Ruan Yao, didn’t have time to hesitate. He really left without complaining.
Ruan Yao looked back at the boy and knew that many people around him were watching.
His eyes dodged, as if afraid to be seen by Ruan Yao.
"System," he said in a deep tone, "I finally understand how great it is to be strong. Everyone is so ed of me."
The system was moved and took out a small handkerchief to wipe its tears. "Master Wuwu, you’ve done a great job. We’ll definitely succeed this time."
Ruan Yao tilted his snow-white chin, seemingly envisioning a bright future of a happy marriage after being attacked by dark forces: "It’s inevitable."
If not, he would deeply regret the points he exchanged.
The campus forum, which Ruan Yao couldn’t see, was flooded with posts about him.
——Oh my! The princess is so beautiful in real life, the princess asdfghjkl!
——The princess just walked past me. He smells so good!
——Are the idiots above okay? Stay away from the princess, okay? (I’m the princess’s puppy Gouwuwuwu)
The seat left by Xu Qin for Ruan Yao was in the front row of the auditorium, where he could watch the game up close. There were also snacks and drinks on the table as if they were specially prepared for Ruan Yao.
As soon as Ruan Yao sat down, the seats around him immediately emptied.
It seemed no one dared to get too close to Ruan Yao.
Ruan Yao, holding snacks and sipping a drink, watched the basketball game with satisfaction, secretly complaining to the system: "My fame has spread throughout the school, they don’t even dare come near me."
"This leads the bad people. Yes, definitely!"
The system couldn’t understand him and ordered a song called "Superstar in Hard Times" for Ruan Yao from outer space.
Ruan Yao glanced upward.
He almost wanted to pull out sunglasses and smoke.
A lollipop could work if you don’t have cigarettes.
——I don’t dare sit next to the princess. I’m afraid I can’t control myself, and the princess will call me perverted.
——It’s so fun being scolded by the princess.
——On the upper floor, people can’t, at least they shouldn’t do that.
——Xiba, whoever dares to sit next to the princess will be killed by me.
——^+2
——^+3
Ruan Yao didn’t understand basketball at all, but people were easily influenced by the atmosphere. The whole stadium was filled with cheers, even supporters of both teams were shouting until their faces turned red.
Ruan Yao sat inside, focusing on the second-year team.
A sense of anxiety filled the atmosphere when a senior player committed a foul.
The tan-skinned, rough-faced boy just stood there, while a few other skinny second-year players didn’t dare step forward.
The referee clearly blew the whistle signaling for a free throw.
The boy with dark attire stood in the middle of the basketball court holding the ball. The other boys on the second-year team looked slightly scared and could only wait for him to throw the ball to them.
Ruan Yao didn’t understand, so he quietly asked the system: "What happens next?"
The system explained, "That person committed a foul, but he doesn’t want to end the game."
Ruan Yao took a bite of the heartwarming cookie, enjoying the spectacle.
As the captain of the second-year team, Xu Qin had invited Ruan Yao to watch his game, not just to see him embarrass himself.
High school students across from me often get into fights outside and are known to be desperate for their lives. Most people only dare to get angry but don’t dare to say anything when they’re fouled while playing.
But today was different, Ruan Yao was here today.
Xu Qin silently cheered himself on. He looked at the audience and found Ruan Yao frowning, attentively watching the situation on the court.
He’s looking at me.
Xu Qin thought.
I can’t let him look down on me.
He gathered his courage to approach the senior who committed the foul, with a tense expression: "You committed a foul, and you’re still not leaving the court!"
Ruan Yao was stunned when a sudden fight broke out on the court.
What was even more frightening was that the second-year and first-year students in the audience started yelling at each other, and there was a vague tendency for them to take action.
Ruan Yao felt slightly embarrassed and wanted to sneak away first.
No one knew whose hand slipped, but the basketball flew directly toward the audience.
Ruan Yao opened his eyes wide, watching the basketball hit his face.
He quickly covered his face with his hands.
However, unexpectedly, the basketball didn’t hit him.
The boy next to him groaned in pain from being hit, and the surrounding area suddenly became silent, so silent that only Ruan Yao's breath could be heard.
"Aren’t you going to let go?" The boy’s cello-like voice suddenly echoed in Ruan Yao's ear.
Ruan Yao hesitantly removed his hand.
Standing before him was a tall, thin, handsome young man with fair skin and a face as beautiful as a movie star’s. He was also wearing a bright diamond earring on his left earlobe.
"Are you scared?"
The boy who caught the basketball with his bare hands lowered his head and stared at Ruan Yao, who was stunned. His reflection was clearly visible in the boy’s beautiful eyes.
Their eyes met, and their breaths drew closer.
"Bepp... main character detected, protagonist gong Lin Xuan."
Ruan Yao slowly lifted his long eyelashes after a while and whispered, "Lin Xuan Gege..."
Lin Xuan nodded and gestured for him to listen.
Then he turned back to the basketball court, holding the ball in one hand.
Everyone stared at him in shock, no one expected this villain star to suddenly appear.
"If you can’t even follow the rules, then don’t play," Lin Xuan said, grabbing the ball with one hand and glancing at the boy below.
His tone was calm, but when he slammed the basketball hard, everyone instinctively wanted to step back.
"Ah!"
The person who started the trouble first was hit directly in the face and fell to the ground in pain.
"Let’s go." Lin Xuan put his hands in his pockets, his tall figure retreating.
Ruan Yao could only nod stupidly.
The bright red mark from his fingers was still left on his fair cheek.
The people around them fell silent for a moment. They watched the Evil God leave with expressions of fear and admiration. Wherever Lin Xuan walked, a path automatically parted like Moses parting the sea.
Ruan Yao covered his face and silently walked alongside Lin Xuan.
I almost got hit by the basketball. That was so embarrassing. How do I fix this?
o0o
How can anyone be this naive? Lol this is going to be fun.
