Peerless Cupid System

"Jiachen, don't be impulsive! This is a school, you can't hit people here!"

"Don't get expelled from school for someone like that!"

The classmates tried to persuade Xu Jiachen, glaring at Ling Ziqian with a shared sense of indignation!

Su Mingxi also entered the classroom and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that no fight had broken out.

Dou Xiaorong nervously grabbed Su Mingxi's hand and asked what had happened. She had just seen Su Mingxi talking to Xu Jiachen.

After being stopped by his classmates, Xu Jiachen regained some of his composure, but he was still furious when he saw Ling Ziqian!

His face contorted as he pointed a finger at Ling Ziqian, "If you've got the guts, wait for me at the school gate after school!"

Ling Ziqian wasn't intimidated. He smiled and said, "Want a one-on-one fight or something? I'm ready anytime!"

Ling Ziqian, who was not afraid at all and even laughed, made Xu Jiachen furious!

He gritted his teeth, his usual gentlemanly demeanor completely gone. "You wait, you can't escape. I'll kill you!"

Ling Ziqian nodded. "I'll wait for you. We'll settle things at noon today!"

As he spoke, Ling Ziqian glanced at Su Mingxi.

Xu Jiachen understood Ling Ziqian's meaning. He gritted his teeth and said, "Fine, let's use Su Mingxi as the stake. Whoever loses gets out!"

Chapter 23 Let him taste the bitterness of setbacks!

Enraged, Xu Jiachen was pulled away by his classmates.

Things became simple instantly, and Ling Ziqian breathed a sigh of relief.

If Xu Jiachen continues to play the good guy with a smile, Ling Ziqian won't know how to make a move.

Now that Xu Jiachen has taken the initiative to break the deadlock, things are much easier!

"I hope he'll keep his word," Huan Yue said, grumbling.

“It’s okay.” Ling Ziqian shook his head. “I guess what Su Mingxi said to him. Even if he beats me down, he will never like Su Mingxi again.”

"Hmph, how would you know if you've never even been in a relationship?" Huan Yue teased Ling Ziqian.

Ling Ziqian was speechless. "This is a male-only complex. When the girl you like is with another man, you feel like you've swallowed a fly."

Huan Yue continued to complain, "I don't know if Xu Jiachen is a man, but you're definitely not a man, you're a virgin!"

Ling Ziqian collapsed to the ground, badly injured by Huan Yue.

Eighteen years old, still a virgin, this is another major weakness of otaku!

If Huan Yue were standing in front of him, Ling Ziqian would definitely not let her off easily!

Dou Xiaorong and Su Mingxi walked over, looking at Ling Ziqian with concern.

"I'm sorry, I made things like this..." Su Mingxi bowed her head and apologized to Ling Ziqian.

“No, that’s not true. You did a great job…” Su Mingxi stood in front of him, and Ling Ziqian was a little flustered. “Even if you don’t say anything to him, he will still cause me trouble. So, it’s better to deal with this quickly and decisively!”

"In short, it's all my fault. I've dragged you into this!" Su Mingxi said apologetically.

"I already said it's okay. Um, I haven't thanked you yet for helping me record yesterday."

Su Mingxi was very embarrassed, "The recording thing happened because Yang Wenxing also insulted me, but now..."

Su Mingxi was very worried, as was Dou Xiaorong, but at this moment, she chose to stand with Ling Ziqian!

"Don't worry, Ziqian is a veteran of many battles, he's not afraid of Xu Jiachen at all!"

“Mm.” Ling Ziqian nodded from the side.

"But……"

"No buts! What a great opportunity to get rid of Xu Jiachen!"

Dou Xiaorong smiled and comforted Su Mingxi.

Su Mingxi had all sorts of worries, but when the class bell rang, Dou Xiaorong pulled her back to her seat.

Ling Ziqian breathed a sigh of relief, sat down in his seat, and prepared for class.

The fat man sitting next to him, Zhu Liangjun, suddenly spoke up, a smile on his face, "You really have guts!"

"Huh?" Ling Ziqian didn't understand what the fat man meant.

"You're making enemies of Xu Jiachen, which is practically making enemies of the students in both Class 1 and Class 2!" The fat man looked into the classroom.

Ling Ziqian looked around and saw many students in the class giving him extremely unfriendly looks.

I never expected Xu Jiachen to have so many fans.

Huan Yue's voice rang out, "It's not that I didn't expect it, but that I didn't notice. Wasn't the cheering on the field yesterday one-sided?"

Ling Ziqian nodded speechlessly. What happened on the court yesterday should be categorized as a dark chapter in his life.

"Your chubby deskmate doesn't seem to dislike you," Huan Yue said.

"Of course, handsome fellow humans are enemies, and the enemy of my enemy is my friend!" Ling Ziqian explained.

Huan Yue is speechless.

Just as Ling Ziqian had said, the fat man Zhu Liangjun was silent for a moment before speaking again.

He raised an eyebrow. "Hey, Ling Ziqian, want a knife?"

"Hmm?" Ling Ziqian looked at the fat man with a puzzled expression.

"Hehe." The fat man chuckled and took something out of the drawer.

It was a knife, triangular in shape, stained with grease, a butcher's knife!

Ling Ziqian was immediately bewildered, unable to understand why this fat guy, a student in the top class, would carry a butcher knife with him.

Zhu Liangjun explained with a smile, "When I was in junior high school, I was often bullied. My dad was a butcher, and he gave me this knife. After that, no one dared to bully me anymore."

This fat guy's dad is truly unbeatable!

Zhu Liangjun tried to hand the butcher knife to Ling Ziqian, but Ling Ziqian quickly refused.

Ling Ziqian wasn't that fierce, going after Xu Jiachen with a butcher's knife to fight him to the death!

Since Ling Ziqian refused, Zhu Liangjun put away the knife and listened attentively to the lesson, as if nothing had happened.

After a class ended, the homeroom teacher, Cui Qiuzhen, appeared at the classroom door.

She looked serious and waved to Ling Ziqian.

Ling Ziqian quickly went out and followed Cui Qiuzhen into the office.

Sitting down in her office, Cui Qiuzhen drank water, her head aching. She knew about Xu Jiachen and Ling Ziqian's affair, but didn't know how to resolve it.

After a moment of silence, Cui Qiuzhen asked, "Ling Ziqian, what do you think should be done about this?"

"Um..." Ling Ziqian scratched his head awkwardly. He didn't know how to get along with his teacher. Usually, when he was with his teacher, the teacher would talk and he would just listen quietly.

Cui Qiuzhen looked at Ling Ziqian intently. "Yang Wenxing didn't come to school yesterday afternoon or this morning. I called to ask about him. Ling Ziqian, do you know how he is?"

Ling Ziqian was still scratching his head, grinning foolishly.

Cui Qiuzhen tried to keep a straight face, but Ling Ziqian defeated her. "Let's put Yang Wenxing's matter aside for now. I know you're not a bad student, but this matter with Xu Jiachen..."

Ling Ziqian took a deep breath and interrupted Cui Qiuzhen, "Teacher, do you like students like Xu Jiachen?"

"Huh?" Cui Qiuzhen didn't understand why Ling Ziqian asked that.

“To be honest, I don’t like classmates like Xu Jiachen.” Ling Ziqian shook his head. “It’s not because of that, but because he’s too arrogant.”

Cui Qiuzhen looked at Ling Ziqian, not understanding what he wanted to say.

Ling Ziqian smiled and said, "I'll give him a good beating at noon today, so he can taste the bitterness of setbacks. If he can understand it, it will be good for him."

Cui Qiuzhen was immediately bewildered. Ling Ziqian was actually yelling in front of her that he wanted to beat up Xu Jiachen, all under the guise of giving Xu Jiachen a benefit!

Hearing what the two were saying, the old man walked over with a smile and said, "I also think that Xu Jiachen should be taught a lesson."

Cui Qiuzhen felt a wave of dizziness wash over her. The old and the young were all acting up together—what was going on?!

"Go back to your class and do whatever you want. We can't interfere with what happens outside of school," the old man said with a smile and a wave of his hand.

Ling Ziqian quickly left the office.

"Teacher Shen, how could you do this?" Cui Qiuzhen looked at the old man with dissatisfaction.

"Then what can we do?" the old man asked with a smile. "If they don't listen to us, should we call the police or tell their families? That would only make things worse. Besides, it's just kids fighting, nothing serious."

"They're not little kids at all!"

"Hmm, no." The old man chuckled. "I actually find this Ling Ziqian quite interesting. What do you think, Xiao Cui?"

"..."

As Ling Ziqian stepped out of the office, a nervous Dou Xiaorong and Su Mingxi appeared, startling him.

"The teacher didn't scold me; on the contrary, she was extremely supportive!" Ling Ziqian quickly explained to avoid worrying the two of them.

"..." Dou Xiaorong and Su Mingxi looked at each other, not understanding what was going on.

After explaining, Ling Ziqian's mouth was dry from talking.

Back in the classroom, he sat down and took a sip of mineral water.

After drinking it, he realized that the bottle of mineral water didn't seem to be his.

"Hey, where's my bottled water?" Su Mingxi rummaged through the drawer.

No way...

Ling Ziqian quickly hid the bottled water in his hand.

Sitting to the side, Zhu Liangjun grinned at Ling Ziqian.

It was this fatso's doing. Ling Ziqian was speechless, wondering what the fatso was up to.

It wasn't until the school bell rang that Zhu Liangjun looked outside and explained to Ling Ziqian, "Brother Monkey came by earlier and changed the bottled water in your drawer. I think he probably added something to it."

As he spoke, Zhu Liangjun took a bottle of mineral water out of the drawer and showed it to Ling Ziqian.

"Monkey King?" Ling Ziqian had heard of this title before. He frowned. "Is he related to Xu Jiachen?"
