Originally, being suddenly grabbed like this, Ye Liangchen was actually quite annoyed.
He furrowed his brows—nowadays, even random nobodies dared lay hands on him!
He tried to shake off the person’s grip forcefully.
But after one attempt, not only did he fail to break free, his arm was now being squeezed painfully.
His frown deepened. This scrawny, bespectacled guy had seed like an easy target at first glance, but who knew he’d have such strength (T University). Fresh chapters posted on NoveI-Fire.ɴet
He weighed his options silently. Even if they fought, the other guy wouldn’t co out unscathed, but he hadn’t co here today to pick a fight.
So he said, “Bro, we’re both here to pick up girls. How about you give so face?”
“Besides, Shen ngjie’s already left. Arguing further won’t do us any good. Co on, do this favor.”
As he spoke, he theatrically pulled a hundred-yuan bill from his pocket.
Seeing Senior Wang take off his glasses and feeling the grip on his arm grow even more painful, he hastily added another two hundred yuan.

“The sea has its limits, the moon its phases. The world is flawed, but eting you has made up for all of it.”
“Hello, Shen ngjie. Let reintroduce myself—I’m Liangchen. Ye Liangchen’s Liangchen.”
Hearing this, Shen ngjie scoffed, eyeing him with a sidelong glance. “You didn’t co here specifically to find today, did you?”
“Nothing escapes you, does it?” Ye Liangchen flicked his hair, attempting a confident smirk, but winced slightly.
That guy’s slap was nothing compared to Long Aotian’s, but it still stung a little.
“I ca because I was worried about you.”
Shen ngjie couldn’t help but laugh at that. “Worried about ? And what, pray tell, are you worried about?”
Her laughter made Ye Liangchen stare, srized.
“That guy playing hard to get with you yesterday—if I’m not mistaken, his na’s Long Aotian, right?”
Suppressing the pain, he finally managed that confident smile and flicked his bangs again. “I know him. And because I know him, that’s why I’m worried for you!”
At this, Shen ngjie, who had been utterly disinterested, suddenly perked up with mild curiosity.
She studied Ye Liangchen with newfound amusent. “You know Long Aotian?”
“Know him? Ha!” The ntion of Long Aotian unleashed a torrent of slander and vitriol from Ye Liangchen. “Sharing a city with him is nothing short of an insult to my existence!”
He took a deep breath, his eyes darkening with feigned anguish. “At school, he’s a nace—ruthless, unscrupulous, a bully of the worst kind!”
“There was this girl who adored , saw as her salvation. But Long Aotian felt threatened. So one day, when I wasn’t around, he... he forced himself on her!”
“He’s vile. He didn’t want near her, afraid I’d make him feel insecure again. So he beat , berated ...”
“When I saw him playing mind gas with a beauty like you yesterday, I couldn’t stay silent. Thankfully, fate heard my prayers and led to you again in this vast crowd.”
“I’m telling you all this so you’ll see Long Aotian for what he truly is. I refuse to stand by and watch him deceive you!”
After this lengthy tirade, Shen ngjie was thoroughly bewildered.
Was the Long Aotian he described even the sa person she knew?
Ye Liangchen flicked his hair once more, his smirk radiating confidence. “After all, we’ve been friends for a whole minute since yesterday.”
Shen ngjie rolled her eyes. “Could you stop flicking your hair in front of ?”
“Why?” He instinctively did it again. “I don’t an to, but people say it looks cool.”
With a shrug and another hair flick, he added, “Fine, I’ll own it. Hence the bangs flick.”
“Wait, never mind that. You have to be careful around Long Aotian.”
Admittedly, Ye Liangchen was gambling here.
He was betting on Long Aotian’s notorious weakness for beautiful won, betting on his inherent depravity...
Shen ngjie frowned, about to retort, but then a thought struck her.
Her gaze softened slightly as she looked at Ye Liangchen.
“So you’re saying Long Aotian is actually a bad person?”
Seeing her reaction, Ye Liangchen exhaled inwardly. His gamble had paid off.
“Exactly! He’s downright monstrous!”
“Don’t be fooled by his appearance—inside, he’s rotten to the core.”
“Unlike . My heart? Pure as an unblemished white lotus.”
Shen ngjie’s lips twitched. A green tea act in front of her? Tch. How to put it... Well, it was just... kind of hilarious.
“Then what should I do? If he’s as relentless as you say, won’t he stop at nothing?”
“Should I report him to the advisor?”
Delighted by her seeking his advice, Ye Liangchen allowed a triumphant smirk.
With feigned gravitas, he shook his head. “Reporting him won’t help. I know that beast too well. Unless you transfer schools, he’ll...”
“But don’t worry. Providence brought us together for a reason—to save you!”
Watching Ye Liangchen’s poorly concealed micro-expressions, Shen ngjie found this ga utterly entertaining.
Ye Liangchen pretended to ponder. “A guy like Long Aotian will resort to extres to get what he wants. And I can’t protect you around the clock.”
He inhaled deeply, brow furrowed in exaggerated concern.
Shen ngjie observed his performance silently, only adopting a worried expression when he glanced her way.
Encouraged, Ye Liangchen unveiled his master plan: “If you trust , follow my lead. This might be the only way to free yourself from Long Aotian’s clutches!”
“What’s the plan?”
“Pretend to yield to him.” His words ca faster now. “Fake compliance—that’ll keep him from escalating.”
“Shen ngjie, you’re stunning. Among everyone I know, you’re easily top four in looks and figure.”
At this, Shen ngjie frowned, feigning displeasure—until his next line made her lips curl in genuine amusent.
"But to Long Aotian, you represent sothing fresh and exciting. If you pretend to submit to him, make him fall head over heels for you, and then—at the peak of his devotion—co back to , it’ll crush him. At that point, he’ll be no match for us!"
This was Ye Liangchen’s little sche. If Shen ngjie agreed, he could use her to gather evidence of Long Aotian’s infidelity.
Once that happened, he doubted Hu Yuying, Li Qingxue, or Lin Wanning could tolerate Long Aotian’s philandering ways any longer. The slightest crack in their trust, and he’d seize the opportunity to slip in.
Ye Liangchen was confident that, while winning over Hu Yuying and the others, he could also make Shen ngjie utterly devoted to him.
This move wouldn’t just secure Hu Yuying and the other two—he’d have Shen ngjie too.
Sorry, but this ti, victory is mine!
