At Su Cheng's Home
"Why did he change from C-rank to A-rank?"
When Su Cheng opened the character information, he almost laughed seeing the 0.1 increase in intelligence.
But when he saw the "confessable" mark and the change from C-rank to A-rank,
He couldn't hold it together.
"I need to analyze this."
Su Cheng quickly pulled open his desk drawer, took out a piece of paper, and hastily wrote down notes.
D is a polite rejection.
C-rank is an insulting rejection.
B-rank danger hasn't appeared yet.
[B-rank Dangers: Ailiya, Hoshino Mirai, Nishizono Shizuko]
[Unknown]
[A-rank Danger: Li Guanqi]
[Unknown]
[S-rank Danger: Ji Qingyi, Li Zhaohao]
He had pretty much figured out Ji Qingyi's S-rank danger.
Though he couldn't prove it conclusively, he was certain in his heart.
Ever since Liu Qingyue appeared, troubles had been coming one after another.
Even super troublesome events like the Archery Club competition had shown up.
As for these dangers?
He didn't resent anyone.
Because he knew there would be risks when he chose to confess anyway.
Want rewards without accepting risks?
Did he think this was some mindless wish-fulfillment novel world?
There's no such thing as free lunch in this world.
As long as his bottom line wasn't crossed, he could turn a blind eye and play deaf and dumb.
[Li Zhaohao]
Seeing this name in his notebook, Su Cheng felt an inexplicable sense of foreboding...
He felt... the student council president's danger was approaching.
"So, how did it change from C-rank to A-rank?"
Su Cheng looked at Cornelia's character information, those attributes of ferocity, extremism, and passion.
Could it be that if I confess... she would accept?
Then, system punishment...
And finally, I explain it was just a joke...
"Hiss..."
Su Cheng drew in a sharp breath. He couldn't imagine Cornelia becoming a yandere...
Su Cheng drew a big X over Cornelia's name, indicating absolutely no confession possible!
Intelligence: 7
Charm: 8
Physical Strength: 5
Since charm points could develop into skills, intelligence and physical strength must also develop similarly.
Su Cheng looked at the intelligence value on the system panel, his brows slightly furrowed.
Because he only needed one more intelligence point to unlock three intelligence-related talent skills.
This made him realize.
B-rank reward attribute points, to some degree,
Weren't inferior to A and S ranks.
Because he had just tried the talent skills.
They were really useful.
Moreover, B-rank dangers didn't seem dangerous.
At least he hadn't felt any danger so far.
Su Cheng rubbed his chin in thought, then wrote down on the paper that his next confession target would be [B-rank].
.....................
The Next Day
Confession attempts reset.
Su Cheng woke up early, prepared breakfast, finished eating, and left home, riding his bicycle to school.
On the way, he encountered Cornelia's private car.
They didn't greet each other.
Because as soon as Cornelia saw him, she turned her head away.
Her head held high like a victorious rooster, completely unwilling to acknowledge him.
But Su Cheng still froze when he saw the "confessable" mark above Cornelia's head.
Cornelia noticed his stare from the corner of her eye, and pride welled up in her heart. She humphed, assuming her beauty had stunned Su Cheng, and drove her private car towards school.
"Hm?"
Su Cheng came back to his senses and showed a strange expression.
Why is she getting more and more foolish?
"Su Cheng~"
Suddenly, a girl's voice came from along the road.
Su Cheng turned to look.
He saw a girl with a "confessable" mark above her head bouncing towards him.
A sweet fragrance wafted over.
"I prepared this lunch box for you."
Xuan Ying took out a lunch box from her chest, slightly bending as she offered it to Su Cheng, her eyes full of excitement as she looked at him.
"Why did you prepare a lunch box for me?"
Su Cheng asked puzzledly, not taking it.
Xuan Ying's cheeks turned red, showing a shy and bashful expression as she said softly, "Grandmother told me not to owe others favors, so this is... for when you gave me a ride to school last time, I prepared this as a thank you gift."
As she spoke, Xuan Ying looked at Su Cheng's back, her eyes gleaming with a special light.
This line was the result of group discussion.
Because if they said these words, Su Cheng definitely wouldn't refuse.
They had held research meetings about this.
Research about Su Cheng.
Su Cheng was someone who really disliked owing favors to others.
But this wasn't because he was cold-hearted, nor was he deliberately maintaining distance from others. Rather, it was related to his childhood experiences. As an orphan who had been independent from a young age and lacked care, everything he got could only be obtained through his own efforts, so he naturally took matters of favor very seriously.
So using the excuse of returning a favor to give him lunch.
Then Su Cheng would definitely understand and accept.
"This..."
Su Cheng got off his bike, looked at Xuan Ying, then at the lunch box in her hands, hesitating.
"Junior~"
Suddenly, another gentle voice rang out.
Xuan Ying's body stiffened for a moment, then she looked into the distance to see a girl in school uniform and knee-high socks standing not far away, waving at Su Cheng.
Then she walked over leisurely, a strawberry lollipop in her mouth.
"Good morning, Xuan Ying~"
Liu Qingyue's voice was sweet and gentle, like heavenly music.
Unfortunately, when Xuan Ying heard this voice, she couldn't help but shiver, cursing in her heart: "Vixen!"
"Hmm~ Looks like I came at a bad time?"
Liu Qingyue took the strawberry lollipop out of her mouth, blinked her eyes innocently, then unceremoniously sat down on the bicycle's back seat, crossing her long legs wrapped in knee-high socks, creating an absolute territory that was impossible to look away from.
Just these legs alone, Su Cheng could play with them for ten years and even lick them until he got a fracture while hugging them.
"Morning~"
As she spoke, Liu Qingyue winked at Su Cheng.
Seeing Liu Qingyue sitting on the back seat so naturally, with such a familiar attitude, Xuan Ying forgot to react while holding the lunch box, becoming as stiff as a statue.
"No, senior, you came at just the right time."
Su Cheng said as he took the lunch box from Xuan Ying.
Xuan Ying's heart leaped with joy, a bright smile appearing on her face, but it didn't last even a second before her face stiffened and turned to stone.
"Senior, this is a lunch box Xuan Ying prepared specially to thank you for the bus fare last time."
Su Cheng said as he stuffed the lunch box into Liu Qingyue's arms.
"Eh?"
Liu Qingyue's face showed a bewildered expression, as if she hadn't processed what just happened.
She looked at Xuan Ying, who raised her head showing an awkward and twisted expression, forcing words through her teeth: "Yes, this is my thank you gift."
Liu Qingyue looked at Su Cheng again, who nodded and said, "Senior, please accept it. Today Xuan Ying's driver might have problems again, so she'll trouble you to take the bus with her again."
"Oh my~"
Liu Qingyue was somewhat surprised, then stood up and looked at Xuan Ying, "Well, thank you then."
"It's... it's nothing~"
Xuan Ying stiffly pulled at the corners of her mouth, her heart growing colder and colder.
How could she have forgotten that the bus card last time was Liu Qingyue's?
Just as the two were about to turn to look at Su Cheng, he had already stepped on the pedal and disappeared from sight.
A lonely soul wandering the world, never getting involved in love triangles!
Xuan Ying: "......"
Liu Qingyue: "......"
The two fell into an awkward silence.

The goal is to explore stations, gather resources, upgrade the train, and survive.

d intelligence to keep the plot moving, and sometimes even the protagonists are forced into absurdly dumb decisions. Why does the A-list celebrity heroine in urban romance novels ditch the top-tier movie star and become a lovestruck fool for a pockmarked male lead? Why do the leads in historical tragedy novels keep dancing between love and death, only for the blind healer to end up suffering the most? And Gu Wei never expected that after finally landing a villain role to stir up trouble, she’d pick the wrong gender! No choice now—she’ll just have to crush the protagonists as a girl!
't think I'm that capable, I'm just trying my best to stay alive. I've been kind all my life, never did anything bad, yet worldly suffering spared me not one bit. The human world is a nice place, but I won't come back in my next life.
