Only Chen Lian was still confused about the situation and desperately tried to argue with Xie Li.

Finally, Zhang Siyuan and his men took them away.

Xie Li: "..."

It was as if a storm had been quelled so easily.

The lackey's admiration for Xie Li was like a torrent: "Brother Li, that move you just showed was so cool! Those legs, wow!"

He savored the memory, and even couldn't resist the urge to secretly reach out and touch Xie Li's leg.

Those legs are amazing! Will touching them bring me some good luck? He dreams of becoming a martial arts master!

Xie Li, expressionless, stopped his groping hand. "What do you want?"

"Ah, may I touch your leg?" he asked, mustering his courage.

Xie Li: "..."

She was silent for a moment, then finally couldn't hold back any longer, "What gave you the wrong impression that I'm easy to talk to?"

Younger brother: "Huh? You've always been easy to talk to."

There's no need to list them all; he's never met anyone with such a good temper as Xie Li! Yesterday, there was a snake in his desk drawer, his books were thrown away, and he was harassed after school.

Even though he didn't do it himself, he was quite lenient towards Ming Xiaoxiao, the culprit, and didn't get angry even when Shen Lian provoked him...

So, it should be touchable, right? The younger brother thought about all sorts of things, his eyes filled with anticipation.

Xie Li nodded. "I see." She said, "You can touch, if you don't want your hands."

Brother: "..."

He looked at Xie Li and realized that Xie Li wasn't joking.

Suddenly remembering the badge that Xie Li had snapped in half with his bare hands, he felt a dull ache in his hand.

"Haha, I was just kidding." He quickly withdrew his hand and winked innocently.

——

Not far from Cafeteria No. 1. Inside the school's campus café.

Jiang Baili stirred her coffee listlessly, but didn't drink it.

She only managed a slight smile when a new message appeared on her phone screen.

The boy across from her smiled ingratiatingly and eagerly, "Did you see some good news, Belle?"

Jiang Baili was his goddess. He felt very honored that she would grace him with her presence at the coffee shop, even though she brought a group of people with her.

"It's nothing," Jiang Baili said calmly, putting away her phone.

Remembering his purpose for the day, the boy mustered his courage and said, "Belle, the main reason I asked you out today is to apologize. We're organizing a 'Goddess of the High School' contest..."

It's a long-standing tradition at Linjiang No.1 Middle School to hold a "Goddess of the School" selection every year.

Jiang Baili naturally didn't feel offended. On the contrary, being able to participate in such a selection meant that she was outstanding in appearance and talent and had gained the recognition of most people.

Jiang Baili was the class beauty at No. 13 Middle School in the capital, but unfortunately she was not recognized as the school beauty.

Being able to participate in the No. 1 High School Goddess selection this time, there's a high chance she'll win the title of school beauty goddess.

Jiang Baili smiled slightly, her posture elegant, "It's alright, I won't mind."

As the boy looked at the elegant young lady in front of him, the initial draft of the promotional material was already forming in his mind.

Born into a wealthy family in the capital, with an illustrious background and outstanding personal abilities, she experienced a blunder during her college entrance exam... The character of a beautiful, kind-hearted, and somewhat tragic heiress is simply too appealing to fans.

"I'm glad you don't mind. I'll let you take a look at the draft after it's finished." The boy was full of confidence. As the editor of the school newspaper's official WeChat account, he was quite skilled at writing.

Jiang Baili nodded slightly before standing up. "It's getting late, let's go back to class."
