"Who do you take me for? A rich, handsome guy? Someone who thinks I can have a relationship with every pretty girl I bump into?"

"Hahahaha, stop joking."

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

Xia Che gave a three-part combo, laughing heartily with a resolute attitude, as if afraid that Jiang Yu would notice anything amiss.

A frantic alarm was sounding in his mind.

Han Xinyue is definitely a dangerous woman. One chance encounter was enough; I absolutely cannot have anything to do with her again.

A woman who can bewitch people and has mysterious Gu worms as pets—no matter her background, such a person is very dangerous to Xia Che.

Fortunately, this is an auditorium...

Xia Che wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

From the stage, there was no way to see the audience, so Han Xinyue should not have noticed her at all.

He hadn't forgotten what Han Xinyue had said when they parted ways.

"Saying things like 'come find me when you're done having fun'... I feel like those kinds of things will cause me a lot of trouble. What I need to do most right now is to avoid trouble, any trouble at all!"

Xia Che let out a long breath.

His only goal now is to keep a low profile in the college league while thwarting any of Li Junyang's plans to get his hands on the female lead.

To be honest, achieving this goal will be extremely difficult.

After all, the plot has already changed because of his arrival. That's what the butterfly effect is like. A small butterfly can change the situation of the whole world. What's more, Xia Che's soul transmigrated in and he even took in three female characters from the comic book. Now, Jiang Yu even hates Li Junyang just like him.

With the female protagonist of the comic book changing her mind, Li Junyang's plan has become extremely difficult to succeed.

With the plot twisted like this, Li Junyang will definitely not carry out his plan as in the original story. This means that Xia Che has no initiative at all and can only wait for Li Junyang to make a move before responding accordingly.

This is a last resort, so Xia Che needs to keep a low profile for a while. If he attracts too much attention, it will only arouse Li Junyang's suspicion.

"Moreover... my sixth sense tells me that Han Xinyue is definitely not a simple woman. She knows evil magic that bewitches people, and that insect... where did it come from? Even my master has never heard of it."

Xia Che stroked his chin, his eyes fixed on Han Xinyue, who was introducing herself on stage. She seemed completely unfazed, even though it was her first time at Weiyang and she was on a stage with so many people. Xia Che couldn't see a trace of fear on her face.

This kind of behavior is in line with Xia Che's impression.

After all, when the two met, Han Xinyue didn't seem like the shy type of girl at all.

Confident, ambitious, and quirky.

This was Han Xinyue's first impression of Xia Che.

As Xia Che pondered, he wondered if it was just his imagination, but he felt that Han Xinyue on the stage seemed to have realized something and had been looking over here at some point.

"What are you pretending for... You think you can even see me? The stands are so dark."

Xia Che didn't take it seriously and made a face at Han Xinyue.

Unexpectedly, as soon as Xia Che finished making a funny face, he noticed that Han Xinyue's lips curled up slightly, revealing a cute dimple, as if she had been amused by Xia Che's funny face.

Xia Che: ……

For no apparent reason, Xia Che suddenly shivered, then looked to the left and then to the right, finally glancing behind him.

strangeness……

The audience seats are still completely dark, right?

Let alone such a distance, Xia Che couldn't even see the people in the row behind him, who were only one row away. If they were any further away, his outstretched hand would just be a dark blur. What could he possibly see?

Rubbing his eyes, Xia Che looked again, only to see Han Xinyue on the stage turn her head away as if nothing had happened.

"Is it an illusion...?"

Xia Che muttered something.

While Xia Che was pondering, all the teams had finished their introductions. After all, the stage was big enough, and each team only needed to go through the motions before being introduced by the host.

Aside from the appearances of attractive individuals like Shen Yanxin, Li Junyang, and Han Xinyue, which caused some commotion, the other teams' players didn't generate much buzz.

After all, there are very few people who possess both special talents and good looks.

After all the teams were introduced, the opening ceremony came to an end.

According to the schedule of the college league, the first day is actually only one morning. After the opening ceremony, there are no classes in the afternoon.

After all, Weiyang has already been set up, and everyone's classroom has temporarily become a rest room for the contestants, so classes can no longer be held there.

The real match didn't begin until the next morning.

The leaders at Weiyang were quite humane; they directly introduced the participating teams and didn't leave the students with unnecessary ramblings. However, the way leaders spoke was an old tradition, so Weiyang's compromise was...

Introduce yourself first, then speak.

Although it was just a difference in the order of presentation, the students were quite satisfied with the overall experience.

The leaders were speaking on stage, while the students below were excitedly discussing which contestant they supported.

Logically speaking, the players that everyone supports are all from the local teams of their respective schools.

But Shen Yanxin and the others were just too dazzling. After all, it's adolescence, and everyone is all about looks.

Most people are attracted to external appearances. Those who claim to only care about inner qualities will behave themselves after dating Sister Yu from Northeast China.

And so...

Many people say they will definitely support their school's contestants, but in reality, they have already betrayed them.

Xia Che had no interest in these discussions; his mind was far beyond that of these high school students, so he simply tilted his head and dozed off for a while.

After an unknown amount of time, Xia Che was in a deep sleep when he suddenly felt as if the world in his dream was about to end, with everything turned upside down, and he felt dizzy.

"Xia Che, Xia Che!"

Jiang Yu shook Xia Che's arm, lifting him up.

"Hmm? What's wrong..."

Xia Che shook his head, looking at the commotion before him with a sense of unfamiliarity, his mind momentarily blank.

"The opening ceremony is over. Are you really a pig? You just woke up and then slept for so long."

Looking at the sleepy-eyed Xia Che, Jiang Yu subtly lowered her hand so that it was just right to touch the back of Xia Che's hand.

In that case...

Does that mean they've held hands?

Jiang Yu's pretty face flushed slightly. She felt that her behavior of taking advantage of the situation was like that of a female hooligan, but then again...

Who wouldn't take advantage of someone they like if they could?!

Moreover, Xia Che is so cute when he's half asleep, who can understand!
