Gou Liang underestimated He Lin’s psychological endurance. After the face-slapping last Sunday, she acted like nothing had happened. She persisted in deepening her feelings with Shi Yu, but was ruthlessly ignored.

One week before YuLe City High School’s Basketball Championship Cup, YuLe City High’s monthly exam arrived as scheduled.

Before the exam began, Gou Liang made a bet with Scholar Shi in front of the class. The stake was to fulfill one unconditional wish; the loser could not refuse it even if it was to strip naked in front of everybody in the school.

The other students got excited by this, they expressed their anticipation of witnessing Gou Liang or Scholar Shi’s heroic stark naked figure. They were ready to gnaw on melon seeds and while taking pictures.

He Lin who was at a loss in this kind of atmosphere could only force herself to go along with the others and smile. In the next few days, she couldn’t find the chance to speak with Shi Yu. It wasn’t until after the English exam on Friday morning that she finally heard from a male student that he often saw Shi Yu go to Maple Forest during break time lately.

He Lin went there with a heart full of joy, but she didn’t expect to see a scene that suffocated her.

Under a tall maple tree, the sunlight was obstructed bythe palm-shaped leaves, only the leftover gentle lustre were allowed to descend.

And under the tree, a youth was reading a thick book on one hand, while another person was comfortably lying down on the bench, resting his head on the youth’s thighs. The youth’s distinct right hand was gently covering the other person’s eyes and half of his face, blocking the light that disturbed the other person’s sleep.

Shi Yu’s expression at that time was one that He Lin didn’t dare to expect even in her dreams.

It was so gentle, so satisfied, and so… full of happiness.

The Sunday after the monthly exam was also the last Sunday of training for Yue Cheng’s Basketball Championship Cup.

This time, He Lin unexpectedly didn’t show up to brush her sense of existence.

Gou Liang originally didn’t care about this, but as he was about to perform a slam dunk, the System urgently interrupted ↓

【System: Ding, Master! He Lin bought your nude photographs from Ye Hui and the PE students!! 】

【Gou Liang: …… 】

The basketball slipped out of his hand. Gou Liang seemed to stop in the middle of the air for a moment, and then fell down without a warning.

Everybody cried out in alarm. Fortunately, Shi Yu was close by, he immediately hugged Gou Liang’s waist and stabilized him, avoiding a tragic accident.

“What’s wrong? Muscle cramps?”

Shi Yu nervously squatted down to examine his ankle. Gou Liang laughingly said : “It’s okay. I just suddenly thought that this posture is a bit ugly, and when I wanted to change to a more handsome posture, my limbs were not coordinated enough, hahaha……”

Shi Yu gave him a stern look.

【Gou Liang: Little Wanton, seriously, can you not give me such a big surprise every time I concentrate on doing another thing? (＃｀皿′) 】

【System: …Ying. Master, I did wrong.】

Given its good attitude of acknowledging its mistakes, Gou Liang generously forgave it. Using the excuse of wanting to drink water to walk out of the basketball court, he gave the System the chance to explain things clearly.

Because Shi Yu’s favorability value has been stuck at +85 for quite a while now, Gou Liang has been constantly searching for a breakthrough point. Shi Yu was someone that treated people warmly but was actually indifferent on the inside, since He Lin was able to make such a person hate her, Gou Liang felt that she can also bring him an unexpected surprise so he had the system monitor her actions.

Unexpectedly, she really hated to be neglected.

After He Lin investigated him, it was not hard for her to find his “weakness”——the Ye family.

She wanted to blacken Gou Liang’s reputation, and therefore let Shi Yu be disgusted by him, so she went to find Ye Hui. But even she didn’t expect that she could obtain such valuable information here↓↓

Gou Liang had liked another person before and Ye Hui made backup photos of his diary. Every sentence in the diary made people feel disgusted. Shi Yu’s psychological mysophobia was even more severe than his physiological mysophobia, as long as he knew that Gou Liang used to “seriously” like someone other than him, it would be intolerable to him.

Moreover, this picture…

He Lin showed a twisted smile. She wanted Gou Liang to be beyond redemption.

【Gou Liang looked at the close-up of her blackened expression and sighed: A good meng little sister, why is she this close-minded?】

&#k3010;System: Master, do you want to deal with&#k2014;&#k2014;&#k3011;

&#k3010;Gou Liang laughed: Deal with what? She’s more useful than I thought. I will wait to see how well she can perform.&#k3011;

&#k3010;System: ???&#k3011;

【Gou Liang: Be good, continue to monitor your brainless shoujo drama, ba.】

The System felt depressed and withdrew itself.

Another Black Monday.

At the moment when the highly anticipated result of the gamble came out, the whole class was surprised.

The homeroom teacher who was thought to be nonexistent couldn’t hide her smile at that moment, and her voice seemed to be three points fuller than usual: “In 2nd place, Zhan Yong Zhe, total score 1011 points, placing 3rd in overall ranking of the year; in first place, Shi Yu, total score of 1050 points, ranked 1st in the year; 1st place, Qi Cheng, total score 1050 points, ranked 1st in the year too! Everybody give applause, and learn from Shi Yu and Qi Cheng!”

Unlike last time, when Ye Hui’s abrupt situation dragged the score down, this time the average score of Class 3 was a lot higher than the other classes. She would definitely get the bonus this month. How could she not be excited?

In the middle of the enthusiastic applause, something dark flashed through He Lin’s eyes.

After distributing the test papers one by one, Li LinLing was curious how Gou Liang had kept his points from being deducted. As a result, after looking at his test paper, she was surprised to find that Gou Liang’s handwriting was very different from a month ago. Also, it looked… quite similar to Scholar Shi’s handwriting.

Gou Liang looked at her face that was surprised by this counterattack in satisfaction. He feigned worry and said to Shi Yu: “What should we do now, beloved deskmate? Is this my victory or your defeat?”

Shi Yu took his language test paper with a smile, admiring the rather “standardized”writing, and the smile in his eyes grew deeper. He nodded and said: “The handwriting is not bad, I didn’t teach you for so long in vain. I think I should give myself a point for this.”

——Every Saturday after the first date, it became a routine activity for them. Other than cooking together, Shi Yu taught Gou Liang calligraphy. Cough, although during the lessons they were more focused on holding hands and sticking to each other, the result achieved at the end was still phenomenal, proving Gou Liang’s extraordinary IQ.

Gou Liang grimaced. “Sorry, Teacher Shi, your opinion is not within the scope of the gamble.”

Shi Yu said:“Why are you like this? If you… I can consider cooperating.”

He threw a glance full of meaning to Gou Liang.

The pit of Gou Liang’s stomach heated up. Enduring the impulse to eat, he put his hand on Shi Yu’s shoulder: “Do you want to exchange?”

Shi Yu raised his eyebrows. “Have you thought about your request yet?”

“Of course.” Gou Liang said, “I’ve already thought about it from the very beginning. I have never thought that I will lose to you, this defeated man…”

As he was talking, suddenly there was an announcement: ”Student Qi Cheng from Year Two Class Three, please go to the Dean’s office. Once again, Student Qi Cheng from Year Two Class Three…”

The smile on Shi Yu’s face disappeared.

Gou Liang stood up, patted his shoulder and said: “I’ll go over for a bit, help me look after my baby, ah.” He pointed at the food in the desk drawer and his bag, took two steps, turned his head then smilingly said: “Not allowed to steal them, oh.”

Shi Yu smiled.

He Lin lowered her head, on her formerly swan-like and elegant facial features was a distorted and hideous smile.

Dean’s Office.

The Head of Education was in an unfavorable situation. The Headmaster who told him to “take good care” of Gou Liang hadn’t arrived yet. Even though he was angry right now, he had to endure his emotions and couldn’t rage his anger towards Gou Liang.

He walked back and forth anxiously and looked at Gou Liang’s innocent and unknowing face. Teacher Zhang who was experiencing an unexpected calamity, couldn’t endure anymore and said: “Do you know why you were called? Do you know?”

Gou Liang of course knew.

He tilted his head and asked doubtfully: “Teacher, when you called me, you didn’t say the reason, ah.”

“You still dare to talk back, do you know what a disaster you caused!” Teacher Zhang was anxious and hateful. Compared to his wrath from the last time he confronted Gou Liang, this time he was more anxious. “You say, what’s wrong with the content of your diary? You still wrote about those kinds of things that are not fit to be seen! It’s now out in the open, and all those reporters outside want to interview me and the Headmaster. This is the first time YuLe High has been this “honorable”! And there’s still this kind of photo. You, why have you taken such photos, ah?!”

Even if he had three mouths, Teacher Zhang still couldn’t clearly express his current feeling that was like being deep fried in oil. He took out his phone bitterly and showed the article to Gou Liang to let him see for himself.

Meanwhile, the group chat of Year Two Class Three received a message ↓

#City A newsflash# #YuLe City High’s 1st Rank•Scholar’s Love Letter# #YuLe City High’s 1st Rank•Rebellious Teenager•Homosexual# #YuLe City High’s 1st Rank•Performance Art Photo#

Such keywords appeared frequently in the headlines of several media newspapers in City A.

Most of the students in Class 3 had only heard about the lover letter from rumors, the existence of it had never been proven. But at this time, it was published in eye-catching headlines in the online media and printed newspaper, together with the high-quality uncensored photos.

Shi Yu’s heart shrank suddenly.

In the picture, Gou Liang’s entire body was covered in wounds. Only his beautiful face had been left intact, creating a sense of tragic beauty that contrasted greatly with this scene of abuse. His eyes were dull and dead, full of suffocating despair but there was also relief…

He stood up and rushed out.

He Lin, who had been paying attention to him, shouted at him: “Brother Shi Yu, where are you going—— “

But in an instant, Shi Yu had already disappeared before her eyes. He Lin chased after him for a few steps but staggered and fell to the floor. She looked at her scraped palm with pain, her pair of eyes full of hate and displeasure: Why, why! He Jin is obviously dead, why are there still people without eyes fighting her for what she wants!

She hated Gou Liang, whom Shi Yu cared about. But thinking that the person who robbed her of her beloved person would be beaten to the 18th layer of hell, she felt that nothing could be happier than that moment.

This was the second time she felt this kind of cold yet exhilarating emotion.

The first time was when she saw her little sister’s corpse.

She grieved, feeling so lost and afraid that she could only scream helplessly. But at the same time, it was as if there was an awakened person laughing inside her head——like He Jin who always snatched away everything she worked hard to guard, revealing a radiant and proud smile.

Shi Yu was slower than the Headmaster by a step as he walked into the office but he was the first to reach Gou Liang’s side.

Gou Liang looked blankly at the article on his phone and glanced at the Headmaster who had knocked open the door and was now leaning against with a despairing expression. The Headmaster about to lose his temper but when he saw who the culprit was, he only silently straightened his glasses that had become crooked when he knocked open the door. After that, he straightened his clothes and recovered his refined-and-reliable-aura.jpg. Gou Liang resisted the urge to laugh out loud.

Because he was suppressing the urge to laugh out loud, the corner of his eyes were a bit moist. But, from Shi Yu’s perspective, it appears that he was crying.

He didn’t care about the Headmaster or the Head of Education. He went to hug Gou Liang and flurriedly console him: “Don’t be afraid, it’s okay, it doesn’t matter…”

He kept repeating these words. Except for these, he felt that he suddenly couldn’t think of any other words.

But his voice was actually the most effective life-saving straw for Gou Liang. Gou Liang’s whole body shuddered and he suddenly jerked back, his tears falling down.

“Shi Yu?”

Gou Liang’s voice had never been so timid.

Shi Yu hurriedly responded: “It’s me. Don’t be afraid, it’s okay, I’m by your side, it’s okay…”

The Headmaster who was being treated as air finally couldn’t help but say: “Cough, cough, Student Shi Yu, we have already called Student Qi Cheng’s parents to take care of this matter. Don’t worry, we, YuLe High, will protect every student.”

Shi Yu didn’t pay attention to what he said, but Gou Liang realized there were other people around them. He opened his eyes wide and away from Shi Yu who was hugging him.

Shi Yu was stunned.

Gou Liang hurriedly hid the phone behind him in a panic. He glanced up at Shi Yu before tentatively taking two steps backward. When Shi Yu saw him acting this way, he felt pained as if someone was clenching his throat.

Gou Liang’s gaze contained a flurry of emotions: panic, fear, joy, sobriety, determination, and agony…

In that split second, Shi Yu felt keenly that Gou Liang had made a choice. He had decided to not let himself harm Shi Yu——he won’t let his scandalous self implicate Shi Yu, and will not let Shi Yu shoulder any kind of stain.

Shi Yu’s eyes became hot.

【Ding, the target’s favorability value has been updated. Current favorability value: +90!】

He wanted to get closer to Gou Liang but the latter stepped back and shook his head at him. His face was already full of tears.

Shi Yu pinched his palm firmly so that he wouldn’t lose control on the spot—the degree of anger and pain that he felt at this moment was even greater than when he had fished out He Jin’s dead body from the water. His restraint made his voice stiff: “I will let people handle this immediately. Little Fool, give me ten minutes, the matter will be resolved soon.”

Gou Liang didn’t hear clearly the first time. He waited for him to repeat it again before quickly wiping his tears and nodding at him.

Shi Yu never thought his healthy heart could feel such a sharp degree of pain. He wanted to give Gou Liang a reassuring smile, but his facial expression remained stiff.

After hardening his heart, Shi Yu turned his head to the Headmaster and said: “Headmaster Chen, before I come back, don’t let any aggressive person come into contact with him, even if they’re his guardian. Is that clear?”

Headmaster : “…Okay.”

As expected of the most favored young master of the Shi Family. The aura he had when he was angry was too horrifying.

Gou Liang seemed to hear the voice of the Headmaster’s crying heart. His face twitched, and the tears fell more quickly.

Shi Yu, who was stepping out of the door, took a glance back. He saw Gou Liang’s tearful eyes staring at him blankly like an innocent newborn.

【Ding, target favorability update, current favorability: +92! 】

Shi Yu clenched his jaw. Restraining his urge to run back and hug Gou Liang tightly, he quickly left.

Gou Liang almost couldn’t hide his expression.

【Gou Liang: So unbearable, I want to bring him back and drag him into a dark room! Ao, ao, ao, the deliciousness of +92 ah, I didn’t even have a chance to taste it. In this world, is there anything crueler than this!! ( >﹏<。。。)】

【The System who had been shocked by its master’s acting skills: …Master, don’t be sad. Thanks to you, the taste of the target’s soul force right now must be bitter. 】

Gou Liang, who was reminded by this, came back to life immediately.

Exiting the sea of consciousness, as a system who was too engrossed in the act and was cheated of its feelings, it could only express: My heart is so exhausted ￣△￣

Soon after Shi Yu’s departure, Ye Chao hurriedly rushed over.

This time, he tactfully didn’t bring Cheng Li.

Gou Liang looked like he had cried, but at the moment, his reddened eyes didn’t shed any more tears. When he saw Ye Chao, his whole body became tense, as if restraining something. Ye Chao knew that this matter must be related to Ye Hui. Moreover, Gou Liang wouldn’t do things that would hurt his stepbrother. Ye Chao let out a sigh of relief in his heart but at the same time, he furrowed his brows.

Ye Chao went straight to the point: “Headmaster Chen, I want to know how the school intends to deal with this matter?”

Headmaster Chen awkwardly said: “Mr.Ye, please sit down first.”

“We know that there must be someone who wants to make things difficult for Qi Cheng. I know that this kid is very excellent. He even got a full mark on the monthly exam this time; he’s a genius that’s hard to come by. But…you see, now that the news has already spread to this degree, even if the school wants to do something, the things that can be done are limited. Moreover, the reputation of the school has been smeared. As you know, YuLe High is a private school, not like public schools. It relies on public opinion——“

“Now is not the time to argue about who should take responsibility.”

Ye Chao interrupted him, “If the school cannot give me a satisfactory answer, I will immediately sue all the students involved in this matter! You should be very clear that this matter is not as bad as what the media reported. Those PE students bullied my stepson so badly, this is already not merely as simple as physical harm! And Xiao Cheng is not 18 years old yet, but as far as I know, in that group of PE students, there are several students who are already 18 years old! “

“Not to mention, homosexuality does not violate the law.”

“People with shallow education and poor characters will say vulgar things but, I, Ye Chao am not afraid of these rumors!”

“Since the school has this kind of attitude, I will immediately ask my lawyer to sue these media outlets and those PE students. As for what responsibility YuLe High will have to shoulder at that time, if there is any damage in reputation… My apologies, I am afraid I can’t do anything to help.”

Half of these words were addressed to the Headmaster, the other half were addressed to Gou Liang.

Ye Chao secretly observed Gou Liang and saw that he was no longer as guarded and his posture was also more relaxed now. He thought in his heart: Thankfully this child’s heart is not completely closed off.

The Headmaster was not as calm as he was. He became anxious after he heard those words: “Mr. Ye, don’t be impulsive. I know that this incident has caused great harm to Qi Cheng, but it has already happened. We as teachers and elders must calm down and consider how to minimize the impact for the sake of the children——“

“Headmaster! Mr. Ye!!”

The sudden yell from The Head of Education surprised the Headmaster who was struggling to appease Ye Chao.

Teacher Zhang’s hands trembled and turned the computer to face them——

Only to see the page that was originally full of #YueCheng High’s 1st Rank blah blah# had already been completely cleared and was replaced by news such as the marriage of a high level executive from a certain news company being ruined by a third party, a certain reporter accepting bribes, a certain reporter’s daughter abusing cats, a certain reporter… Without exception, the companies and reporters being exposed were the same ones that published Gou Liang’s scandal!

What was more, if you tried to enter ‘1st Rank, Qi Cheng, Performance Art Photos, Nude Photographs, YueCheng High’ and other keywords, there was only one search result ↓↓

【The page you searched for does not exist.】

And all this had happened in the sixth minute after Shi Yu left the Dean’s Office.
