Women, all of you get lost! (1)

As a person with ideals, with dreams, and a man with great ambitions!

Ye Hao just wanted to study well, get into a good university in the future, but…

Why are you women, after eating your fill with nothing to do, coming to bother me!

Did I provoke you?

Why does each of you want to disturb my studying!

Because of this, Ye Hao thought of an idea.

Using the excuse that he already had a girlfriend, he wanted these women—who were like moths flying into the fire—to calm down.

So he found a girl named Chen Shirou, who, like him, loved studying.

As his fake girlfriend, Chen Shirou was right now confronting one of the girls disturbing him, Li Mengying.

“Exactly.

We can’t just bark around like some uncultured dog.

Ye Hao, let’s go~”

What she wanted was for Li Mengying to get angry to the point of losing her composure.

When people are angry, they don’t think before acting.

Right now, she was very much looking forward to Li Mengying making a fool of herself~

“Liu Qianxia, let’s go back to the classroom…”

At the very edge of her anger, Li Mengying suddenly turned around, clenched her teeth, and forcibly swallowed her emotions.

“Hm? Why go back to the classroom?

I just had something to ask Ye Hao…”

As she spoke, Liu Qianxia took out a notebook that looked extremely familiar to Li Mengying, though no one knew where she got it.

Seeing this, Li Mengying’s mind went blank for a moment, and then she instantly understood.

Although Liu Qianxia usually acted close to her, they were not friends—also competitors.

Seeing Liu Qianxia speak so calmly about asking a question, not only Li Mengying but even Chen Shirou realized they had been played.

Turns out this seemingly simple-minded girl, Liu Qianxia, was the hardest one to deal with.

Li Mengying even suspected that Liu Qianxia had pretended to be easy to bully all this time—just to fool them.

People hide their strengths, but this one hid her weakness, giving others false information.

So deep… Liu Qianxia… I really misjudged you.

Was Liu Qianxia always this scheming?

Actually, before meeting Li Mengying, she was indeed a silly and naive girl.

There’s a saying: “People’s potential is forced out of them.”

And that applied to Liu Qianxia.

Li Mengying’s appearance back then was a fatal blow to naïve her.

Li Mengying constantly sabotaged her relationship with Ye Hao.

Bit by bit, Liu Qianxia was forced to change.

At this moment, Ye Hao noticed a small figure running toward them from afar.

Yuan Yuan!?

No way, things were already chaotic enough—why was she coming now?!

Increasing difficulty?

Wanting to experience hard mode life?

“Huff… I’m exhausted. Haozi, you forgot your phone, I searched everywhere for you…”

You think Yuan Yuan came just to return the phone?

Impossible!

Enduring makes you angrier.

Retreating makes you lose more!

Attack is the best defense!

Instead of sitting and waiting to die—destroy them first!

“Oh, thanks.”

Ye Hao took the phone and gave Yuan Yuan a look.

Yuan Yuan: “……”

What the hell…

Her brain froze for a moment.

That look… what did it mean?

Her instincts told her something big was going on.

Since when did Ye Hao ever give her a look like that?

A secret signal!

What did that mean?

It meant Ye Hao considered her one of his own!

Happiness came too suddenly—Yuan Yuan’s knees almost gave out as she grabbed Ye Hao’s arm.

“Are you okay…”

Ye Hao felt his soul leave his body.

Why did she come?

He was planning to use Chen Shirou to get rid of Li Mengying and Liu Qianxia, these two clingy girls.

Yuan Yuan wasn’t stupid.

Seeing Chen Shirou hugging Ye Hao’s left arm, she understood instantly.

So that’s how it is.

The phone wallpaper, the photo from earlier, and…

“Haozi, so this is your girlfriend? I’ve heard you mention her before.

Turns out it’s the class monitor.

Impressive, Haozi.”

Acting, huh?

Fine!

I, Yuan Yuan, will add EXTRA drama today!

No need to thank me!

Hearing Yuan Yuan’s words, Ye Hao shed tears like an old father.

She’s grown up.

She understands!

So touching.

Seeing Yuan Yuan give him another small signal, Ye Hao of course seized the chance.

He HAD to.

Such a golden opportunity!

“Mm, this is Chen Shirou, my girlfriend.

To be honest, we’ve been hiding it for a long time, hahaha~”

Li Mengying: “G… girlfriend?”

It was like a huge blow struck her.

The lunchbox in her hands fell to the ground.

Ye Hao had a girlfriend?

Thinking back over all these years…

Was that what his responses meant?

【Ye Hao, want me to be your girlfriend? I’m telling you, others don’t get this chance~】

【Ye Hao, want to walk home together?】

【Ye Hao, it’s Valentine’s Day~ Want chocolate? I made it myself~】

……

【Goodbye…】

“You… when did you have a girlfriend…

Why didn’t I hear anything…”

Just as Ye Hao was about to make her leave, not only he but even Yuan Yuan got excited.

“Li Mengying, this is my business.

I have no reason to tell you.

And…”

“Don’t you think… you’re extremely annoying?”

God knows how long Ye Hao had held that in.

Back when he decided to study hard and finally got a good score, she accused him of cheating.

He worked so hard day and night, and his efforts were completely denied by a woman he didn’t even know then.

Even the class teacher Jiang Yue doubted him.

After so many years, he finally said it.

It wasn’t that he was cowardly—it’s just that he was afraid of trouble interfering with his study and exams.

So he endured.

“I…”

Li Mengying raised her head, glared viciously at him, then kicked her fallen lunchbox and ran off.

“Ah, Liu Qianxia, I forgot to tell you—Ye Hao already has a girlfriend.

Sorry, sorry~”

Hearing Yuan Yuan’s words, Liu Qianxia wanted to leave, but reason held her back.

“Chen Shirou, right?

Why have I never heard of you being Ye Hao’s girlfriend?”

“Mm… well, you met Ye Hao in the second semester of tenth grade.

But Chen Shirou knew him since the start of school.

It’s normal you don’t know.”

Ye Hao: ???

What!?

He knew Chen Shirou since the beginning of the school year?

Why did he have zero memory of her?

“Yes, Ye Hao and I have known each other since very early.

I thought he forgot, but…

He always remembered. Isn’t that right~”

Right now, Chen Shirou felt the biggest shock.

She always thought Ye Hao was just playing around with her.

She didn’t expect…

This was good.

Her feelings weren’t wasted.

She had never forgotten Ye Hao.

Even after so long… he still remembered her…

“Then… after we get into the same university…”

“I lied.

I didn’t know you were so easy to fool.”

“Then… the tutoring…”

“Thanks for the lunches back then.

I said before—I couldn’t always eat your lunchbox, right?”

“You…”

Before Liu Qianxia could finish, Ye Hao cut her off:

“I never liked you.

I can only say, I’m sorry~”

He shrugged casually.

“By the way, didn’t you have a question you wanted to ask? Shall we…”

“No need…”

She threw the notebook at Ye Hao.

“Wish you two happiness…”

Then she left, head down, gripping the craft knife in her pocket.

She just wanted to find a place to vent—at herself.

Watching her leave, Ye Hao finally let out a long sigh.

“Now can you two let go of me…”

“Honestly, Haozi, if you wanted to get rid of those two girls, you should’ve come to me.

One cute outfit and problem solved.”

“Heh, one cute outfit? I’d beat the crap out of you.”

Ye Hao tapped Yuan Yuan on the head.

“Well, we’ll part ways here~”

He gave a thumbs-up to Chen Shirou and left with Yuan Yuan.

“A’Yuan, you said I knew Chen Shirou before…

Why don’t I remember her?”

“Ah? No way.

You knocked her to the ground on the first day of school.

You forgot?”

No… no way…

Ye Hao’s throat moved twice.

Was he really that bold back then?

Impossible, officer!

“You’re joking, right?”

Ye Hao coughed lightly.

“Not joking.

You also poured water all over her.”

“A… and then…”

“Then you won her over within a week~”

You’re kidding…

“And then you dumped her the next day~”

“Hey! You’re messing with me!”

Ye Hao grabbed her head and rubbed it like crazy.

“Ow ow ow!

Truth!

It’s the truth!

Stop!

If you hit me more, I’ll be dumb!

I’m already not smart—will you take care of me then?”

“If you become dumb, I’ll take care of you!”

“No, I don’t want that!”

She grabbed his hand and dramatically said:

“Haozi… I think…

I should study more…”

Ye Hao: ???

“Why?!

When someone wants you to study, you act like you’re being murdered.

Now what?”

He was completely confused.

“Because… I’m scared you’ll beat me dumb!”

She yelled, smacked Ye Hao on the head, and ran away!

Touching a tiger’s head—would you not run?

Stay and get beaten?

Ye Hao: “……”

She’s getting bold!

Of all people to provoke—me?!

She wants to die!

If they were at home, he’d have chased her with a slipper already!

“Yuan Yuan… you little brat… stop right there!”

“I’m not dumb!

Why would I stop and get beaten!

Bleh!”

Chasing her wasn’t logical.

As the saying goes:

You can escape the monk, but not the temple.

She would eventually return to class.

And sit right beside him.

At that time…

Even if she called heaven or earth for help—no one could save her.

Ye Hao was absolutely… ruthless~
