The male supporting character was actually myself.

After a few girls in the back two rows whispered among themselves, a short-haired girl sitting on the table whistled and shouted at Yuan Xuefei.

Yuan Xuefei ignored her.

Feeling embarrassed, the short-haired girl walked over, put her foot on a stool, and slammed her hand on the table. "Are you deaf or mute? Can't you hear me?"

New phones aren't cheap, Yuan Xuefei, where did you get the money?

If you're broke but still spending so lavishly, you must be a prostitute!

Hey everyone, come look! Yuan Xuefei's out selling things to earn money to buy new clothes and a new phone. Any guys want to patronize her business? Classmates get a 20% discount!

"Lu Zi, shut up!" Yuan Xuefei's face turned red with anger. "You'll get your comeuppance if you have a sharp tongue and a vicious heart!"

The Lu family owns a jewelry store, and their students have to pay money to get into No. 1 Middle School.

She was rich and powerful, and usually gathered a group of unruly and unambitious girls, and loved to bully students from poor families.

Especially Yuan Xuefei, who came from a poor family, had no parents, and had a brother who was nicknamed "Baozi" (meaning "steamed bun").

After teasing her, Yuan Xuefei turned around and complained to Yuan Jiangchen. Yuan Xuefei was sure to get scolded and would have to apologize to herself.

Lu Zi knew that no matter how much trouble she caused, no one would stand up for Yuan Xuefei, so she escalated her actions time and time again.

Even if the other party wants to resist, it's useless. They can complain to the teacher or the disciplinary office, but the situation will definitely reverse once it reaches Yuan Jiangchen. He will definitely turn a big problem into a small one and a small problem into nothing in the end!

"You son of a bitch, how dare you curse me!" Lu Zi was about to roll up her sleeves when she turned around and saw Yuan Jiangchen standing silently at the classroom door. She angrily complained, "Yuan Jiangchen, your sister actually dared to argue with her classmate. Is this the kind of upbringing your Yuan family has?"

After complaining about the other party so many times, she had long since figured out their temperament.

As long as the topic of family education comes up, Yuan Xuefei will definitely get scolded!

“Brother…” Yuan Xuefei called out weakly when she saw him.

The whole class was waiting to see what would happen. They had seen this kind of thing many times before, and some even started betting on whether Yuan Jiangchen would punish his sister by making her write a self-criticism or apologize.

"It's definitely my fault for not teaching well." Jiang Chen walked into the classroom with a smile on her face. "How could you argue with your classmates?"

Yuan Xuefei's eyes welled up with tears of grievance. Sure enough... she was still the same as always...

Before she could even explain, a crisp slap rang out, and Lu Zi, stunned by the slap, fell to the side, knocking over tables and chairs.

"Next time you encounter someone like that, slap her until she shuts up." Jiang Chen, with a faint smile on his face, ruffled his sister's fluffy silver hair and said earnestly, "If you can take action, try not to talk nonsense and waste your breath."

The little white cat perched on its host's shoulder, clapping its two fluffy little paws in approval, "Host is so handsome!"

His unusual behavior not only stunned Yuan Xuefei, but also dumbfounded the students in the class who were waiting to see him make a fool of himself.

"You, Yuan Jiangchen, I'll remember you!" Lu Zi's face was numb from the beating, and it took her a while to get up, cover her face, and threaten him incoherently.

"Then remember this well."

"You..." Lu Zi was speechless after being rebuked.

Yuan Xuefei was touched that her brother was finally willing to protect her, but she was also afraid that Lu Zi would collude with thugs outside the school and cause trouble. After all, her brother was in his final year of high school and about to take the college entrance examination, so she couldn't let him get involved.

So she stepped forward, grabbed her brother's arm, and whispered, "Her family sells jewelry..."

"No wonder he's so arrogant, turns out he's a prostitute." Jiang Chen suddenly realized.

Yuan Xuefei choked for a moment and weakly uttered the second half of the sentence, "Her family is very rich..."

Now his face was full of "I understand" expressions. "Of course they're rich! They sell gold during the day and silver at night!"

"coax!"

The whole class burst into laughter.

Yuan Xuefei couldn't help but laugh when she saw her brother's unexpectedly sharp retort.

"If anyone dares to bully you again, use Jin Nian's power to fight back!" Jiang Chen whispered in his sister's ear, "School bullies are a bunch of trash who bully the weak and fear the strong."

"Beat them hard! I'll back you up, you have nothing to fear!"

Yuan Xuefei was so moved that she cried, "Brother, you're so good, sob sob sob..."

"I also want an older brother to pamper and protect me!" As soon as she finished speaking, meeting the host's calm gaze, the little white cat plopped down and rubbed its fluffy face against his ear. "Host, you pamper and protect me the most! I love you, Host!"

That's more like it...

Jiang Chen scanned everyone's faces and asked in a gentle tone, "Who is Wu Qifan?"

"They just went out!" a student shouted back.

Soon someone pointed to the corridor outside the classroom and shouted, "Wu Qifan, Yuan Xuefei's brother is looking for you!"

After the noise subsided, Jiang Chen looked out the window and saw a boy who was about 1.85 meters tall, with a naive and somewhat arrogant look, walking towards the classroom. "What does that guy want with me?"

He strode forward to greet her, "You're Wu Qifan? The one who took Feifei to the unfinished building yesterday?"

"That's right, it was me who brought that jinx..." Before Wu Qifan could finish speaking, he felt someone grab his collar and drag him away in the next second!

Even though the two were about the same height, Jiang Chen grabbed him by the collar and dragged him to the bathroom door like a little chick. She bent down, grabbed him, and shoved him headfirst into a 1.5-meter-tall trash can.

With a loud bang, he slammed the lid down, ignoring Wu Qifan's screams and struggles inside. He pushed the trash can to the door of Class 4, Grade 1, and said loudly, "Who else lied to my sister yesterday? Step forward and explain yourself, and I'll let bygones be bygones."

He won't confess voluntarily. Once Wu Qifan names someone, I'll shove him down the toilet like this!

The classroom fell silent, except for the muffled struggles and roars of Wu Qifan coming from inside the trash can.

Chapter Thirteen triggers hidden plot.

Stuffing trash cans with garbage is such a ruthless tactic...

After all, they were only first-year high school students and hadn't yet shed the naivety of middle school students. Facing Yuan Jiangchen, a senior in high school, everyone felt uneasy.

Two boys exchanged a glance, hesitated, and stepped forward.

A few seconds later, a girl also stepped forward.

"What exactly happened?" Jiang Chen's tone still lacked any anger, yet it was still frightening.

The girl glanced timidly at the trash can and then at Yuan Xuefei, her voice trembling as she said, "I'm sorry, Feifei, I... I didn't know why Brother Fan asked you out. He just told me to meet you at that park..."

"Xiaoxiao, I've always considered you my best friend." Yuan Xuefei's eyes were cold. "I thought what happened yesterday was just a coincidence, a chance encounter with Wu Qifan."

I never imagined it was you who tricked me.

If you like Wu Qifan, you're willing to betray your best friend for him.

Brother, don't pursue this matter any further. I'm not friends with her anymore.

The girl named Xiaoxiao explained in a tearful voice, "I really don't know what he wanted to do, I'm so sorry, Feifei..."

"If 'sorry' were enough, the world wouldn't need police." Jiang Chen coldly replied with a classic line, then looked at the two boys, "She's responsible for arranging the meeting, so what are you two responsible for?"

The two boys exchanged a glance, then looked at the trash can that was being held firmly in Yuan Jiangchen's hand and making a muffled sound, and confessed: "We don't know what Brother Fan wants with Yuan Xuefei, he just went to make up the numbers."

As a result... Xiaoxiao made an excuse to leave and abandoned Yuan Xuefei in the park. Fan Ge went over and soon returned with the unconscious Yuan Xuefei, asking us to help carry her to the unfinished building.

Then they let us leave.

We heard that the unfinished building is haunted, and Yuan Xuefei often faints, and she's a bit pretentious and delicate. We thought Brother Fan was just trying to scare her…”

The source of this lies with Wu Qifan.

Jiang Chen lifted the lid of the trash can. There wasn't much trash inside after just two classes on Monday, but it still smelled strange.

"You bastard surnamed Yuan, you just wait!" Wu Qifan continued to threaten.

He had never felt so humiliated in his life. The leader of the freshmen class was actually stuffed into a trash can.

Moreover, because he was stuffed in upside down, he could barely exert any strength and could only keep kicking his legs, trying to get out of the curled-up position in the trash can, so his body and head were covered in dirt and smelly grime.

"Tell me the truth." Jiang Chen glanced at Wu Qifan with disdain, secretly lamenting his miscalculation.

It's so damn dirty, I don't even want to lift it out.

"I'll tell you your damn thing!" Wu Qifan roared angrily, his face red and neck bulging.

Jiang Chen didn't waste any more time with him. Pushing the trash can through the corridor full of students, she walked to the restroom, turned on the tap, and poured cold water into it. "Let's calm down first."

It's springtime, and although the weather is warm, everyone is still wearing long-sleeved jackets.

It rained again yesterday, and the temperature dropped.

Wu Qifan had gone out to play a couple of games of basketball and had taken off his school uniform jacket. Now, wearing only a short-sleeved shirt, he was being haphazardly washed from head to toe with icy water. There was even the distinctive stench of a garbage can mixed with the water being poured into his nose. After struggling and arguing for a few moments, he quickly gave up.

"I'll tell you, I'll tell you!" Wu Qifan shouted timidly, "It was a Taoist priest! He gave me 30,000 yuan and told me to bring Yuan Xuefei over!"

As soon as Jiang Chen turned off the tap, the little white cat exclaimed, "Host, the script has been updated again!"

The message above indicates: Hidden clue triggered, script updating...

There's a hidden storyline?

"You two, get your brother Fan out here." Jiang Chen was also quite surprised. He took the opportunity to glance at the updated script and gestured for the two people involved to come over.

Wu Qifan, covered in foul-smelling water and shivering from the cold, said, "All I know is that the Celestial Master is called Feng Rui, and he seems to be from some Blood Sun Mountain. He's incredibly powerful."

That's how we met. He helped my uncle's family exorcise evil spirits.

Last Friday, Feng Rui asked me about Yuan Xuefei, and later said that her special constitution could attract evil spirits.

He said there was a powerful evil spirit over the unfinished building that had killed many people, and he wanted to rid the people of this scourge but couldn't catch it.

Then he gave me 30,000 yuan and asked me to discuss with Yuan Xuefei about helping him catch evil spirits.

He also promised that he would never let her get hurt.

I... was short on money while pursuing a girlfriend, so I agreed.

After Xiaoxiao arranged to meet Yuan Xuefei, she left under a pretext. I originally wanted to have a proper discussion with her, but unexpectedly, Yuan Xuefei ran away as soon as she saw me.

I chased after her and grabbed her, but I pulled too hard.

Yuan Xuefei fell and hit a tree, then passed out. I thought I'd take her there first to explain...

After bringing her over, I waited alone and handed her over to Feng Rui. Yuan Xuefei still hadn't woken up. Feng Rui said it was okay, by the time she woke up the evil spirit would have already caught her, which would save trouble.

I was originally thinking of staying, but then the unfinished building looked eerie and scary, so I got scared and ran away…”

In the later events, Jiang Chen retained the original owner's memories.

He was chasing an evil spirit when (the script deliberately arranged) he came across an unfinished building, and while investigating, he discovered his sister.

After a short time, Jiang Chen noticed that Wu Qifan had handed Yuan Xuefei over to Feng Rui and then left.
