Villain Rescue System - Chapter 23

Perhaps Yan Li’s attitude toward those gifts was too indifferent. After some time, there were only very few girls who showed affection to him.

After all, no one wanted to see the gift they gave being thrown on an empty table.

Yan Li also thought the same.

Until one day, he noticed that his classmates looked at him in the wrong way…

To be precise, the eyes that looked at him and Wen Long were not right.

Because there was a trash can in the corner behind him, students would pass by the aisle next to Wen Long after almost every get out of class.

Many times, they would keep their eyes on him for a second. After seeing him, they would look at Wen Long who was sitting next to him, and then they would snicker.

If the person passing by was a boy, he would wink at him.

“…”

Sometimes, when the teacher called the names in class, as his and Wen Long’s names were next to each other, their behavior would be even more strange.

Everyone’s eyes turned to the back in unison, and an ambiguous “yooooo~” sound came out.

As a result, Yan Li now felt that the teachers of various subjects looked at him strangely.

He wanted to ask Wen Long, after all, in that matter, she was in the same situation as him.

But the other party, Miss Wen, was calm about it, as if she didn’t notice anything wrong at all.

Later, when Yan Li asked her, Wen Long just glanced at him as if looking at an idiot and then went back to sleep on the table.

For Wen Long, it was nothing more than coaxing those children.

Was there anything to be concerned about?

“…”

Asking Wen Long was to no avail, Yan Li had to ask others.

“Ah…” Faced with his question, the boy at the front table just scratched his hair and said, “You two are the only couple in our class who are openly in love, so we can’t help but make fun of you.”

Yan Li froze in place.

He was stunned. “What are you talking about?”

“Huh? Don’t you like her?”

“No, you made a mistake,” Yan Li’s voice was calm, but he was extraordinarily determined.

Then it was the boy’s turn to be puzzled, “But you only keep the things Wen Long gives you, don’t you?”

He threw all the things the other girls gave him on the front desk of the classroom, only Wen Long’s were kept in the table drawer.

“That is because……”

Yan Li frowned tightly, not knowing how to explain. He just worked for her and got what he deserved.

And it was something she didn’t want. Giving it to him was exactly the same as throwing it in the trash. He didn’t have to worry about having to pay it back one day.

He simply didn’t explain, and just said calmly, “I don’t like her.”

Hearing that, Lin Tong turned around angrily,

“You’re saying so, are you not afraid that Wen Long will be sad?”

“…”

What would she be sad about?

“How can you…how can you be so irresponsible?!”

“What?” Yan Li asked.

Lin Tong blushed as she asked, she murmured a few words, but Yan Li couldn’t hear it clearly.

“Oh, you know it yourself!!”

Yan Li didn’t understand what she meant, but other boys in that age group understood it in seconds.

When the boy at the front desk heard Lin Tong’s words, his expression changed, and he looked at him as if he was a scumbag, “Yan Li, you are underage. This is not appropriate.”

“…”

In the end, Yan Li, who didn’t understand anything, was so depressed that he didn’t even have a good dinner.

The schoolwork pressure was the heaviest in the third year of high school. The large-scale exams and the small class tests made every day a sprint stage.

Yan Li struggled for a few days and didn’t bother about it anymore.

Since that semester, in addition to studying in the classroom, he has added an additional activity.

After March, he insisted on going to run on the playground for several kilometers every day.

As they added evening self-study, and Yan Li solved questions until midnight every night, he clearly felt the fatigue of his cerebral nerves.

Especially in the middle of the night, the efficiency of thinking was much slower than during the day.

Appropriate running exercise was very effective in relieving nerve fatigue.

…

It was June in the blink of an eye.

While others were anxious about the college entrance examination a few days later, Wen Long was counting the days, waiting for the plot before the college entrance examination.

[Three days left.]

The third day was the second night before the college entrance examination.

Wen Long: “Mr. System, can you elaborate on what happened that night?”

She was well prepared.

[In the original plot, Yan Hai drank too much alcohol on the second night before the college entrance examination, and even lost all the scholarships he grabbed from Yan Li. After returning, he saw Yan Li.]

After Wen Long heard that, she was thoughtful.

Was it an accident?

She didn’t think so.

It was not like Yan Hai never beat Yan Li. When Yan Li was wearing short sleeves in the summer, she would occasionally catch a glimpse of the bruises under the hem of his clothes when he stretched.

Although Yan Hai was not a good person, he also didn’t want to spend a few years in prison for beating people. So every time he beat him, he basically hit him on the back, so as not to kill him.

But just a few days before the college entrance examination, he smashed the wine bottle onto his forehead.

Wen Long couldn’t believe it was just a coincidence.

As for why he did it…

Wen Long squinted, those cat-like pupils were particularly deep.
