Chapter 513
In front of him, Cui Wenlin was like a sick cat in front of a tiger, inferior to everything, overestimating his own abilities, and so pathetic that it was unbearable to look at.
This is also the reason why Cui Wenlin least wants to face Zong Mu directly.
In front of this prodigy, all his glory, confidence, and pride were instantly crushed, making all his efforts seem like a joke.
But if Zong Mu didn't have such a powerful family background, where would he get the confidence to act so domineeringly?
Cui Wenlin roared with resentment in his heart.
Zong Mu narrowed his long, narrow eyes. "Don't you know I'm a problem student? School rules have no effect on me."
Cui Wenlin clenched his fists, trying to maintain his composure. "Zong, let's talk things out. Fighting won't solve anything."
Zong Mu sneered, "If you don't dare to fight, then get lost. You're trying to be a hero in front of me. Who gave you the courage?"
Cui Wenlin's face turned pale and then red. "Classmate Zong, I'm just telling the truth."
"Are you telling the truth or harboring ill intentions? Don't you have any idea? Do you really think you're the only smart person in the world, and everyone else is a fool?"
"You... Zong Mu, we're all classmates, why are you being so aggressive? Leave some room for others, don't go too far."
So what if it's excessive?
Zong Mu gave him a cold glance, and then, with a thud, the pink water glass landed on Wen Xin's table, startling the stunned girl awake.
Wen Xin hurriedly stood up, "You, you guys stop arguing and fighting!"
She suddenly picked up the water glass and shoved it into Zong Mu's arms, saying, "It's...it's yours."
Zong Mu gripped his water glass, his gaze darkening. "Are you helping him?"
The girl seemed a little frightened by his gaze and said weakly, "I'm just afraid you'll fight."
Zong Mu sneered, "Are you afraid I'll lose, or are you afraid he'll lose?"
He leaned closer to her, his tone slightly cold, "Little rabbit, are you concerned about him?"
Wen Xin looked bewildered and innocent, not understanding why he was angry.
Zong Mu's eyes were full of coldness. He suddenly turned around and threw Cui Wenlin to the ground with an over-the-shoulder throw. He gripped Cui Wenlin's wrist, his joints cracking. The ruthlessness he exuded made one's heart pound.
He glanced at Wen Xin, his handsome face hardening. "I hit him. What do you want?"
Wen Xin: "..." Um, can I give you a thumbs up?
Cui Wenlin, who was beaten: "..." You're fucking crazy!
The entire class watching: "..." (Jaw dropped.jpg)
"Zong Mu!"
Cui Wenlin was helped up by his classmates. He was in so much pain that he was covered in cold sweat and growled through gritted teeth.
Zong Mu arrogantly leaned on Wen Xin's desk. "Not convinced? You can fight back. Oh, and of course, you can go tell the teacher if you want."
It's obvious that he's been reported so many times that he's become fearless, this school bully.
It made Cui Wenlin seem like a useless child who hadn't been weaned and could only complain.
Enraged by Cui Wenlin's veiled insults, he nearly twisted in anger. "Zong Mu, do you have no respect for the law?"
"Ha, get lost!"
"you……"
Wen Xin seemed at a loss, "Classmate Zong..."
Zong Mu looked down at her. "You're going to make a scene with me because of him, right?"
Wen Xin: "..."
Can you please stop portraying her as a two-timing scumbag?
The girl's grape-like eyes were watery. "Zong, please stop saying such strange things."
"Don't hit people anymore."
If you're going to fight, wait until no one's around, then put a sack over your head and beat them up!
In public, isn't this just asking for trouble?
This guy seemed a bit slow-witted when he was young, similar to Xiao Jin.
Little Jin... Shouldn't Little Jin show some surprise? After all, its intelligence has actually reached the level of the male supporting character! How exciting!
Zong Mu seemed to see the girl's worry for him in her beautiful, expressive eyes.
To him?
Zong Mu was stunned.
He suddenly pointed at Cui Wenlin and said, "Tell me honestly, do you like this pretentious, fake guy?"
Wen Xin: "..." The feeling of being caught cheating became even stronger.
Cui Wenlin: "..." Damn it, I'm about to swear.
Wen Xin stomped her foot in embarrassment and annoyance, "Zong, don't talk nonsense. Early dating is forbidden at school."
Zong Mu looked at the little white rabbit's fair and juicy face, which resembled a ripe peach, and felt a surge of desire. "Then how about we ban it?"
The girl was so angry that she glared at him, "There are no hypotheticals. Our primary task right now is to study hard and get into university. Everything else is secondary."
Zong Mu wasn't entirely satisfied with the answer, but knowing she had no ulterior motives towards Cui Wenlin, the anger in his eyes dissipated.
He reached out and pinched her cheek. "Bookworm."
Wen Xin covered her face and accused him, "You're really too much."
Zong Mu raised his chin. "You can't beat me."
Wen Xin: "..." This shameless person.
The girl angrily sat back down in her seat.
Zong Mu looked at the ruffled little white rabbit, a smile gradually spreading across his face. He pushed her pink water glass in front of her, "Didn't you say you were thirsty?"
Wen Xin didn't want to talk to him.
Zongmu: "Hmm?"
The girl stiffened slightly, then unscrewed the lid of her water glass, took a sip, and asked with a pitiful expression, "Is that enough?"
Zong Mu patted her little head, "I fetched water for you and you still don't appreciate it, acting like I'm forcing you. You have no conscience."
Wen Xin scoffed inwardly, "He's heartless my foot, you big pig's trotter."
Oh, right, he's still a teenager with chuunibyou (middle school syndrome), he might not even be fully grown yet.
And they dare to imitate the domineering attitude of CEOs? Pshaw!
Zong Mu suddenly sneezed. "Little rabbit, are you cursing me in your heart?"
Wen Xin: "...I didn't."
Does he have paranoia?
Zong Mu clicked his tongue. "Don't let me catch you doing anything wrong."
Wen Xin instinctively shuddered and pretended to be oblivious as she hugged her workbook tightly.
I'm going to curse him in my heart, so what? So what? Let him awaken his mind-reading ability if he dares!
And so, the male lead was forgotten by his official female lead and the second male lead who should have been the one who couldn't have the love he wanted.
Cui Wenlin watched the interaction between the two, his expression was incredibly smug, jealousy almost driving him to madness.
Wen Xin's words, though seemingly tactful, clearly indicated that she disliked his attitude, which made him feel betrayed, humiliated, and angry.
How could she not like him?
She should...
Zong Mu, it's all that bastard's fault!
When the school bell rang, Cui Wenlin could only give Wen Xin a strange look before reluctantly returning to his seat.
Zong Mu raised his eyelids, his gaze filled with mockery and contempt.
What an idiot.
Xiao Jin silently complained from the side: But you lost to this idiot in your past life!
All I can say is that if the master sides with the male supporting character, the male protagonist will never be a threat.
But since they are like fragments of a soul, their power is insufficient to fight against the Heavenly Dao and the plot. They are forced to become entangled with the male protagonist. Then, no matter how affectionate or powerful the male supporting character is, he can only suffer miserably.
