Chapter 16 A Meal of Fried Pork
As soon as the golden finger's reminder disappeared, Zhu Youwei's pants were torn apart with a "click".
My body expanded at a speed visible to the naked eye, and I gained a full 30 kilograms!
He originally weighed more than 180 pounds, but now his weight has soared to 240 pounds. He has gained a lot of weight like a balloon.
He saw his body, which had swelled up like a balloon, in the mirror and was so scared that he collapsed and screamed.
How could it be possible? How could he suddenly become fat? How could Cao Yue escape the mark? How could it be possible!
Just at this time, Zhu Youwei's parents came back from other places.
Zhu Youwei's parents are away all year round, and he lives on campus, so he has only seen them less than five times this year.
Seeing how fat he had become, Zhu Youwei's father sneered, "Look at what you look like now! Didn't you tell me on the phone that you'd lost weight? Didn't you say you were down to 180 pounds? How could you really be 180? Zhu Youwei, you don't study all day, and you're lying like a human! If you don't get first place in the exams this semester, don't go to visit relatives during the Spring Festival this year, and don't go anywhere! Study hard at home!"
Zhu Youwei's mother quickly comforted him, saying, "Dad, don't be so hard on your child. Youwei must be studying too hard! He can gain some weight, so long as he studies well. Youwei will definitely get first place in the exam this time, or at least second place! When you receive the admission letter, you can go to the parent-teacher conference and make yourself proud."
Finally, Zhu's father calmed down and pointed at Zhu Youwei and scolded him, "You look like a pig. Can't you lose some weight? There's a parents' meeting the day after tomorrow, right? Go and give me some face. Do you hear me?"
Zhu Youwei shrank his neck and said weakly, "Dad...or...you don't go, let Mom go..."
But his voice was too soft and Mr. Zhu didn't hear it at all.
Mother Zhu whispered, "Okay, go do your homework."
Zhu Youwei was afraid of his father and didn't dare to talk to him again.
He stood in front of the mirror in a daze, completely unsure of what to do next.
Gold Finger reminded him:
You are the hero of this world, and the "Marking" character setting is a special ability given to you by the Lord God. This failure and punishment are a warning to you: don't take it lightly, and keep trying! With experience, you will know how to mark the more outstanding Villain No. 2 and No. 1.
Zhu Youwei couldn't let himself stay like this. He asked, "Can I choose the next person to mark?"
Gold Finger:
[Not allowed at this time. This is a romance novel world, centered around the heroine. Before she matures into a true heroine, she doesn't possess the qualities to be liked by superior people. Therefore, you cannot mark Villain No. 2 at this time.]
Zhu Youwei asked: "So I can't do anything now, right?"
Gold Finger:
[You can choose to trade your most valuable possession with me, and I can end your punishment early.]
Zhu Youwei wanted to nod and say yes immediately, but he quickly realized: "What is my most valuable thing?"
Gold Finger:
Your learning ability.
Zhu Youwei looked at his fat self in the mirror, his father's insults echoing in his ears.
He could even imagine the disgusted looks he would receive from relatives during the Chinese New Year, and the comments behind his back calling him a pig.
Zhu Youwei clenched a corner of his clothes, but in the end he was reluctant to exchange his learning ability.
He said, "I'll...think about it."
Gold Finger:
[Please make a decision as soon as possible, after all, you are a great male protagonist! ]
-
The final exam results are out, and the first-year high school students held a unified parent-teacher meeting. Parents sat together with their students, nervously waiting for the teachers of each subject to speak.
After announcing the results for Grade 16, Teacher Liu, the homeroom teacher, said passionately, "Class 16 performed very well overall this time, ranking in the top five in the grade! The learning atmosphere among the students was incredibly enthusiastic. Next, I want to especially commend Qin Tiantian! She made remarkable progress this time, even reaching the top 30! She also found ways to inspire everyone's passion for learning! She deserves praise!"
Everyone focused their attention on Qin Tiantian and Xue Qi, and applause broke out.
A female parent saw Xue Qi and whispered gossip to the mother sitting next to her:
"That woman used to live in our neighborhood. She was only 30 years old. She had been married for a year when her husband died and his company went bankrupt and liquidated. She became a widow at such a young age with a 15-year-old child. How could she ever get married again? Her whole life is ruined. It's said that she's not treating her stepdaughter well either. I guess she's just here to play the role of a loving mother today. I feel so sorry for that little girl."
"Ah? She looked so young, I thought she was Qin Tiantian's sister."
The matriarch's daughter immediately frowned:
"Mom, please don't gossip when you have time. It's better to feel sorry for your daughter than for other people's daughters. Qin Tiantian's stepmother is the mother of all people in our class. Please stop gossiping, okay?"
Another female classmate also rolled her eyes at her mother:
"That's right, Qin Tiantian's stepmother is our class mother. Anyone who dares to say anything bad about her will be the enemy of our entire class! Mom, if you don't want to become our public enemy, just shut up."
The daughter's voice attracted the attention of the people around her, and many eyes were focused on her.
The woman blushed, feeling very embarrassed. She lowered her voice and said, "You little bitch, what are you talking about..."
Xue Qi heard the voice behind her and whispered, "Tian'er, I became your class mother. Why didn't you tell me? Look how much others envy you. Don't be so ungrateful. Don't try to be so cunning anymore. Just follow me and let me be your most trusted rich woman."
Qin Tiantian suddenly felt that her stepmother was a bit silly. She snorted, "Don't be so cocky. We are in a cooperative relationship. Don't even think about asking me to call you mom. It's impossible!"
Xue Qi was even more arrogant than her: "Please don't call me mom, a fairy can't give birth to a daughter as old as you."
Qin Tiantian was speechless.
She discovered that this little stepmother was better at acting like a spoiled child than her! She was better at being cute and pitiful than her! She was also better at being a tsundere than her!
Xue Qi stared at the top of Qin Tiantian's head, feeling regretful that he couldn't see any subtitles.
Since Qin Tiantian was not by Cao Yue's side when she woke up, she missed the golden subtitles on Qin Tiantian's head.
She has been a little itchy these past few days, wanting to know how much the little girl's luck has increased!
Qin Tiantian received a WeChat message from a group message from the ski club.
The teacher in charge of the ski club said that a prospective transfer student would come to volunteer at the club.
It is said that this transfer student also has some talent for skiing and may join the ski club of Blue Mountain International School next semester.
Private schools like Blue Mountains International have no shortage of famous teachers and the tuition fees are not low. The various sports clubs in their school are all aimed at training professional athletes.
It is not easy to join the ski club. You either need to have competition results like Qin Tiantian, or you need to participate in training selection when joining the club and reach a certain passing score to get in.
Originally, Qin Tiantian was not interested in the prospective transfer student, but soon, when she saw the WeChat ID that the teacher dragged in, she was completely stunned.
——Liu Ruyu!
The teacher on the stage was still speaking, and Xue Qi did not notice the change in Qin Tiantian's expression.
Teacher Liu said unusually: "Finally, I want to criticize a student in our class."
She pushed the frame of her glasses up on her nose and her eyes fell on a fat boy in the back row. "Zhu Youwei's parents, Zhu Youwei actually answered the questions randomly on the test paper! He got the last place in the class. He has always been at the top of our class, so I always allowed him to go to the Robotics Club for study time. But I didn't expect that he would actually get the last place in the class! Zhu Youwei's father, this is his test paper, take a look for yourself!"
Although Zhu Youwei was among the top students in the class, he was not sociable. He was nowhere to be seen during breaks and was never seen during self-study classes.
Everyone was very surprised to hear that he had ranked last in the exam.
They all turned their heads to look at him.
The study committee member handed Zhu Youwei's test paper to Zhu's father. When Zhu's father saw the score of 49, he was so angry that blood spurted out on the spot. He stood up and kicked Zhu Youwei!
Not only that, he picked up an iron bench and smashed it against Zhu Youwei, cursing, "You little bastard, if you don't lose weight and grow into a pig, it's bad enough! You actually got the last place in the exam! I think you've gone crazy playing with those broken machines! I'll beat you to death--"
Zhu Youwei lay on the desk and cried. The stool hit his back, but he didn't dare to resist at all.
The parents were all terrified and tried to stop the fight:
"Dad Zhu Youwei, stop hitting me! Something bad will happen if you keep hitting me like this!"
Teacher Liu was also frightened by this scene and rushed down from the podium:
"Zhu Youwei's father! Calm down, calm down! Zhu Youwei has always been obedient and sensible. Something must have happened to the child. Listen to what he says first, don't be anxious!"
"Yes, Zhu Youwei, Dad! Calm down!"
However, the more others tried to persuade him, the more Zhu Youwei's father couldn't calm down. He felt more and more ashamed and vented all his anger on his son.
Xue Qi frowned.
There was a faint smell of alcohol coming from Zhu Youwei's father.
Zhu Youwei buried his head in his arms, thinking that it would be better to just die.
He even failed to "mark" his character, what else can he do?
He is a useless person, a pighead, and doesn't deserve to live!
Xue Qi saw small golden characters appearing above Zhu Youwei's head:
[You can use the remaining honesty in your heart to get the chance to mark Villain No. 2.]
[You can also use your learning ability in exchange for letting your father die.]
[Don't hesitate, Zhu Youwei. You have the most powerful golden finger in the world. Why are you still hesitating? This small failure is just to make you more vigilant and serious in the future.]
[Zhu Youwei, to succeed, you must first learn to be decisive. How can you be worthy of the perfect heroine when you are so cowardly?]
[The heroine can make a decisive choice, why can't you? You are such a useless waste.]
…
Zhu Youwei began to deny himself constantly.
Xue Qi stared at Zhu Youwei, and golden subtitles continued to appear above the boy's head:
[What? You don't want to be the hero anymore? If you give up the golden finger, you will be severely punished.]
You will become a short-lived, fat otaku who does nothing! Without the male protagonist's halo to protect you, you will suffer retribution for your past actions that harmed others! Your life span will not exceed two years!
Zhu Youwei was in so much pain that he even felt more miserable than before he had the golden finger!
In this world, no one cares about him, so he might as well just die.
Let it be retribution!
Just die!
Mr. Zhu was furious and picked up an iron stool and smashed it on Zhu Youwei's head.
The head teacher rushed over to hug Mr. Zhu, but was kicked away.
In the classroom, shouts suddenly broke out one after another.
"Ah! Call the police!"
"Zhu Youwei's father is drunk and I can't stop him! Call the police!"
Everyone was afraid that Mr. Zhu would go crazy and hurt their children, so they all left the classroom.
Qin Tiantian was also a little scared and pulled Xue Qi away, "Let's go. Stop watching. He's really crazy. How dare a drunkard like him attend a parent-teacher conference? What a fool."
Xue Qi looked around, picked up a stool and smashed it over fiercely.
The stool in Zhu Youwei's father's hand was knocked away by Xue Qi, and his palms were numb from the shock.
Xue Qi didn't give him a chance to fight back and kicked him into the trash can.
Then he stepped on his face, picked up a broom and beat him up.
She scolded him, "Hit a child? Is 100-degree boiling water in your brain? Letting you sit in the classroom is just temporarily treating you as a human being. If you don't have the self-control to do human things, what kind of parent are you?"
Zhu Youwei did something wrong and he will be punished.
But Xue Qi couldn't stand this inhuman parent committing domestic violence in school!
It’s not too much to put it in the pan and fry it!
Teacher Liu, the homeroom teacher, got up from the ground, adjusted the frame of his glasses, and sighed:
"Oh my god... She's worthy of being the class mom of Class 16, Grade 1!"
