"Thank you, Xia Che..."
Shen Yanxin's expression was complicated.
Xia Che and she were both students at Weiyang No. 1 Middle School, and Shen Yanxin was no stranger to Xia Che's fearsome reputation.
It's safe to say that if Shen Yanxin were to run into him on campus, her first reaction would be to call him "teacher."
She never imagined that the infamous bad student would appear like a god and save her today.
Shen Yanxin didn't even dare to think about what would have happened to her if Xia Che hadn't come.
"..."
Xia Che glanced at it indifferently, then turned and left.
"Huh?"
Seeing that Xia Che left without even saying goodbye, Shen Yanxin was momentarily stunned.
"What a weirdo..."
Xia Che was no longer in the alley. Shen Yanxin murmured softly, her melodious voice echoing in the alley.
"Phew... I finally succeeded on my first try."
Xia Che walked out of the alley with a relaxed expression, stretching lazily in the sunlight.
Having already known the plot's direction, he was no longer willing to give Li Junyang any further opportunities to gain favor with the female lead.
This time, he will be a true warrior of pure love, silently protecting those around him!
"However, since I rescued Shen Yanxin ahead of schedule, Li Junyang shouldn't have arrived yet, right?"
Xia Che looked around and muttered something.
The male protagonist is, after all, the male protagonist. The author added many halos to him, such as good grades, and he is a top student at Weiyang No. 1 High School.
He also has top-notch physical abilities and is the president of the Taekwondo club. His skill level is said to have reached the fourth dan black belt.
With physical abilities far exceeding those of his peers, it would be incredibly easy for him to play the hero, rescue a damsel in distress, or beat up a few street thugs.
Li Junyang never imagined that he would pluck the peach before him.
"Hmph... Damn it, with me here, you won't have a chance to succeed!"
Xia Che snapped out of his thoughts, punched his palm, and for the first time, a hearty smile appeared on his face.
very good.
The plan to rescue the female lead has achieved its first step. Without Li Junyang's interference, Shen Yanxin's affection for him will not rise so quickly.
The beginning is always the hardest, and Xia Che was very satisfied with the first step he had taken.
In a great mood, Xia Che glanced at the full-length mirror outside a barbershop as he passed by.
This was the first time he had seriously looked at the original owner's appearance.
—In the mirror, a face with a sinister look was seen, mostly obscured by yellow, side-swept bangs.
To be honest, the original owner of this body was not bad-looking. He had a high nose bridge and a face that looked as if it had been carved by a knife. He was a very standard handsome man with single eyelids.
But for some reason, the moment I saw that face, lewd and obscene adjectives instantly rose from the bottom of my heart.
In the original comic, the original character was just a minor character, and his appearance was not shown. His face was completely a shadow, and the few close-ups only depicted his lewd eyes, which were covered by his side-swept bangs.
Xia Che shook his head from side to side, finding the side-swept bangs annoying no matter how he looked at them. They were blocking his eyes. After staring at himself in the mirror for a long time, he sighed in a low voice, "I really want to cut these side-swept bangs... but I just transmigrated here. If I suddenly change my original style, wouldn't it be too abrupt? It might arouse suspicion from those with ulterior motives."
The original owner was not alone.
He has a younger sister who is studying abroad.
The original owner of this body had no idea what her parents' business was.
The two elders lived abroad for many years. According to their memories, the other party seemed to be very disappointed in the original owner, so they only took the younger sister and did not choose to take the original owner with them. They only left her a house in Jiang City and sent her a living allowance every month.
He has a sister, a house, and a good family background—this protagonist-level setup is now being given a minor role, which is really strange.
What's even stranger is that the original owner's grades in junior high school were actually quite good, and he was admitted to Weiyang No. 1 Middle School, a key school in Jiang City. It was only after entering high school that he started to slack off and become a hoodlum.
It seems that the original owner of this body was keeping a low profile.
"If you don't go back to school soon, you'll be late."
Suddenly, a soft voice rang out from behind. Xia Che, who was immersed in his own world, was startled and turned around to see Shen Yanxin, whom he was supposed to part ways with, actually there.
"You...how did you get here?"
Xia Che blurted it out.
He knew that Shen Yanxin had taken the day off to go on a date with Li Junyang, with whom she had already developed feelings.
If it weren't for choosing a time with fewer people for class, Shen Yanxin probably wouldn't have encountered this danger.
After all, no matter how remote that alley is, it is not far from Weiyang No.1 Middle School, and people will inevitably pass by there, so there will naturally be passersby who will help.
"Of course, I'll go back to school."
Shen Yanxin pointed to the road sign in front of them, and Xia Che suddenly realized that this road was indeed the closest route to the school.
"After something like that happened... how could I possibly be in the mood to be outside?"
Shen Yanxin sighed softly, her eyes darkening.
Although she was safe, she was still shaken. After sending Li Junyang a text message canceling their date with a fabricated excuse, she chased after Xia Che in the direction he had left.
Even Shen Yanxin herself couldn't explain why she was willing to follow Xia Che. His fierce reputation was obvious to all, and he looked intimidating. What if he tried to harm her?
"That's true, so... just you?"
Xia Che looked warily behind Shen Yanxin. This time, he had beaten Li Junyang to the punch, but judging from the speed at which the other party appeared in the original story, this kid was likely nearby.
Li Junyang is a genuine fourth-degree black belt in Taekwondo. He once broke the leg of an opponent during a high school league match.
In the school league, he was willing to break the bones of classmates he had no grudge against in order to win, which shows how ruthless this kid is.
"He's already gone back; he probably had something to do."
When this was mentioned, Shen Yanxin's gaze shifted slightly.
She lied.
Shen Yanxin did not choose to go back to school with Li Junyang, but instead made up an excuse to let him go back first.
Her subconscious seemed to be telling her that this fierce-looking thug in front of her might be more reliable than Li Junyang.
"Let's go together, okay?"
Shen Yanxin looked up at Xia Che.
Her eyes were watery, and her expression was pitiful, like a frightened little rabbit, afraid that Xia Che would refuse her.
She subconsciously avoided every passerby who walked past her, indicating that the accident that had just happened had left a significant psychological scar on Shen Yanxin.
"Alright."
Xia Che sighed, somewhat helplessly.
I need to put my plan to skip class on hold for a while.
If I leave the female lead in such a state of fright unattended, and something else goes wrong, it would be a greater loss than gain.
"Um!"
Seeing that Xia Che did not refuse, Shen Yanxin breathed a sigh of relief, her eyes smiling, and nodded emphatically.
