Why are you all trying to win over me, the male supporting character?

“It’s only been a few months, and that kid Lin Chen has already earned almost 100 million. At this rate, he’ll be able to inherit 30% of my assets by his sophomore year at the latest.”

"Although I did help him out a bit, this kid's judgment is indeed excellent."

"I'm very satisfied with the food street and the Xitai Building project they've organized!"

"His ability to successfully connect with the Meng family was unexpected, but it's still a good thing overall..."

Hearing Mr. Lin praise his son so highly, Lu Chengzhou felt a little embarrassed.

After all, those projects were actually led not by Lin Chen, but by him.

Of course, he had no intention of stealing credit from the male lead.

He still hopes to continue being an invisible, unambitious nobody.

Lu Chengzhou poured some more wine for Master Lin and said slowly, "So, Master Lin means that you don't plan to see your son for the time being?"

Mr. Lin shook his head: "No, we still need to meet him."

After all, the son is still in his rebellious phase, which is the time when he needs guidance and support from his elders.

As a father, he also had to put on a pitiful act in front of his son.

For example, tears behind bars.

……

After Mr. Lin had prepared his acting skills and rehearsed with Lu Chengzhou several times, he decided to meet with Lin Chen.

I don't know how Mr. Lin persuaded the prison guards to provide him with props and costumes, and his performance was very realistic.

Lin Chen's face turned somber when he saw his father in prison clothes.

Lu Chengzhou patted him on the shoulder as a gesture of comfort.

"You two chat, I'll head out first."

He walked out of the cramped reception room and into the courtyard.

Aisha brought him and Lin Chen here today.

Elsa put on a new maid outfit, characterized by a very short skirt and a choker, which made her look quite erotic.

Every man who came and went couldn't help but glance at her twice.

Even girls were attracted to her and wanted to take a picture with her.

Lu Chengzhou felt too embarrassed to look at her too much, so he could only stroll around the courtyard and enjoy the scenery.

Elsa wasn't about to let him off so easily. She took two steps after him and asked, "Don't you like the style I'm wearing?"

Lu Chengzhou: "I don't really like it."

Elsa: "You're lying. You were clearly looking at my thighs the whole time."

Lu Chengzhou turned to look at her: "I just felt that your thighs have gotten a lot thicker lately, so I couldn't help but take a few more glances."

Elsa: "..."

Okay, she admits she lost.

She pinched her thigh, seriously considering whether she should lose some weight.

After waiting for more than an hour, Lin Chen walked out of the reception room with red eyes.

Upon seeing Lu Chengzhou, tears streamed down his face.

"Brother Lu, my dad told me that he might be sentenced to life imprisonment."

"..."

Lu Chengzhou was frustrated.

Why is this old man talking nonsense?

Acting is acting, but that's enough.

"Brother Lu, my dad also said that I can only get him out of here after I've earned 50 billion!"

Lu Chengzhou felt increasingly depressed.

Five hundred billion?

According to the original story's pace, it would take at least until the male protagonist is thirty years old to achieve this.

However, the male protagonist is only a freshman in college.

"Sigh, I feel that I can never repay my father's kindness in this lifetime."

Lin Chen seemed somewhat pessimistic as he spoke.

Lu Chengzhou was about to say a few words of comfort to him when he was caught off guard and heard him say, "I have no choice but to consider severing my father-son relationship with him and repaying his kindness in the next life."

Lu Cheng rubbed his forehead and sighed.

Now things are really messed up; the male lead has to put aside his own family for the greater good.

When Mr. Lin was playing this game, he probably never imagined that things would go wrong and have such terrible consequences.

"You haven't had lunch yet, have you? Come on, Brother Lu, I'll treat you to a meal."

Lin Chen quickly recovered from the devastating news that his father was to be sentenced to life imprisonment.

After dinner, he started discussing university matters with Lu Chengzhou.

As he wished, Lu Chengzhou chose the Department of Literature.

The place where the literature department held classes was about two bus stops away from where Lin Chen and the others held their classes.

Moreover, the times on the schedule are perfectly staggered.

It's safe to say that, barring any unforeseen circumstances, they will likely encounter each other no more than five times per semester.

This perfectly matches Lin Chen's vision.

“Su Qiaoman and I are in the same class, we’re really destined to be together.” Lin Chen sighed happily, “I think I can win her over in this semester of freshman year.”

Lu Chengzhou nodded: "That would be best."

In that case, perhaps the system will give him a grand gift pack for completing the storyline?

At this moment, Lin Chen sneaked over again and muttered, "Brother Lu, you know Jiang Aiyu, right?"

Lu Chengzhou nodded, looking at him with a puzzled expression.

Lin Chen continued, "Jiang Aiyu came to our school, and like you, she chose the Literature Department. I don't know if it's a coincidence."

Lu Chengzhou looked helpless.

coincidence?

There aren't that many coincidences in this world.

It was clearly Miss Jiang who did it on purpose.

However, Lu Chengzhou had no idea why she had deliberately done this.

As they were talking, Jiang Aiyu's motorcycle stopped at the door.

She got out of the car, took off her helmet, walked straight into the store, and sat down at the table where Lu Chengzhou and the other man were sitting.

Lin Chen couldn't help but shudder when he saw Jiang Aiyu.

"Haha, I need to go to the bathroom."

Lin Chen, who had just come out of the toilet less than a minute ago, went back into the toilet.

Jiang Aiyu didn't even spare him a second of extra glance.

Lu Chengzhou coughed lightly and said, "What a coincidence, Miss Jiang, are you here for dinner?"

Jiang Aiyu rested her chin on her hand and looked at him with an expression that seemed to say, "Go on, I'll just watch your performance."

Feeling stared at like that, Lu Chengzhou had no choice but to hand her a glass of plum juice to calm her down.

"Teacher, we'll be classmates from now on."

Jiang Aiyu took the plum juice he offered, took a sip, and put it down.

"I want to tell you something, teacher: starting today, I'm officially going to pursue you."

Upon hearing this, Lu Chengzhou's hand trembled slightly.

He looked up at her in disbelief.

This wasn't the first time he'd heard this.

However, Jiang Aiyu in the past would never have had such a serious expression when saying such things.

"Miss Jiang, what triggered this?"

"No."

"Then you shouldn't pursue me."

"No."

Lu Chengzhou felt that if he couldn't afford to offend them, he could at least avoid them, so he got up and prepared to run away.

However, Jiang Aiyu stretched out her leg, pulled on the chair, and blocked his way.

"Teacher, starting today, I want to go to school with you every day." Jiang Aiyu pulled a boning knife from under her skirt and stabbed it into the table. "And you have to eat my cooking every day."

Looking at the sharp boning knife, Lu Chengzhou couldn't help but shiver.

As the saying goes, even the best kung fu master is afraid of a kitchen knife...

No matter how strong I am, I can't fight someone with a knife head-on; after all, I'm just flesh and blood.

After finally curing the male lead's domineering nature, did that domineering attribute simply transfer to Miss Jiang?

"I mean, isn't it a bit too much to ask people to go to school every day and eat every day?"

No, I'll remind you.

Jiang Aiyu tugged at him, making him sit down again.

Then, he took a piece of paper out of his backpack and placed it on the table.
