Suppressing the Protagonist at the Start to Seize the Heroine

Chapter 43 - Universal Trump Card

Chapter 43 : Universal Trump Card

As Ye Feng prepared to leave, Lin Xiaowan called out, “Ye Feng, you haven’t mentioned the time yet. We can’t possibly continue this competition into university, can we?”

Ye Feng’s mouth twitched slightly before he replied, “Let’s make it the final monthly exam.”

“Alright, then the final monthly exam it is,” Su Lin nodded in agreement.

Seeing Su Lin accept the bet, Ye Feng knew there was no point in staying any longer. He headed towards the playground to watch Feng Yifei’s performance. This move also signaled to everyone that mere verbal sparring was useless now; they would still have to face the challenge on the playground.

“Hmph, this guy is too arrogant, it’s infuriating,” Lin Xiaowan said, covering her chest in frustration.

Xia Shiyu heard and said, “Arrogant people will be punished. When the time comes, we will watch him make a fool of himself.”

Su Lin nodded, “When the time comes, I’ll treat you to drinks and sunflower seeds.”

“Hehe~! Just don’t lose then, or you’ll be the one who’s the laughingstock,” Lin Xiaowan playfully said to Su Lin.

Su Lin thought about ruffling Lin Xiaowan’s hair, but since they weren’t a couple yet, he refrained. But it should just be a matter of two months before he could get her. He then looked at Feng Yifei who was shouting and running on the field and shook his head. “Let’s go, it’s almost time. Let’s leave.”

During this time, the three of them – Xia Shiyu, Lin Xiaowan, and Su Lin – were inseparable at school. Su Lin had become the envy of many. But with his excellent grades and wealth, not to mention his good looks, no one dared to trouble him.

As he was leaving, Su Lin glanced towards a corner of the teaching building. His heightened senses, a result of physical enhancement, were sharper than others. He knew Yan Huan was watching Feng Yifei on the playground. After this wave of manipulation, it was likely that Feng Yifei would have no problem forming a rapport with Yan Huan..  Unfortunately, Ye Feng didn’t like Yan Huan anymore, or there would be a lot of fun to watch.

“I wonder how Yan Huan is doing,” Lin Xiaowan said with a sigh.

Su Lin shook his head, “Probably thinking of ways to deal with Ye Feng.”

“Ah! They’re not going to fight, are they?” Lin Xiaowan asked worriedly. As class monitor, she felt obliged to intervene in such matters, even though she and Yan Huan had parted ways.

Su Lin shook his head, “Feng Yifei will probably find someone to deal with him. After all, he’s lost face. As for Yan Huan, she might use different methods.”

Lin Xiaowan looked at Su Lin as if he was a monster, “It seems like you’ve guessed everything.” Now that she thought about it, Su Lin’s reaction at the sports field seemed to have been prepared.

Su Lin chuckled, “I’m close to Xiaoyu, and with Ye Feng’s narrow-minded nature, he will definitely seek revenge. Right now, his options are limited, so it’s probably going to be academically. Isn’t that easy to guess?”

Lin Xiaowan sighed, “I don’t know how you think of these things. We would never have thought of so much.”

Suddenly, Lin Xiaowan came to a realization. She stared at Su Lin with her eyes wide open. “So, you did it on purpose just now. You asked that question on purpose. In fact, I… even if I didn’t say those things, you would still agree to Ye Feng’s bet.”

Lin Xiaowan was very smart. It was just that her comfortable life in school had limited her thinking. Now that Su Lin had explained it clearly, she understood one point, and at this time, she gritted her teeth and looked at Su Lin.

Su Lin nodded. “Yes, I just didn’t expect you to say that. It’s an unexpected surprise.”

“An unexpected surprise?”

“What else?” Su Lin looked at Lin Xiaowan with some amusement.

“…” Thinking about it carefully, the thing she agreed to was an unexpected surprise for Su Lin.

“Su Lin, what are you two whispering about?”

“Xiaowan is venting to me about how hateful Ye Feng is. That 80,000 yuan he has, I wonder where it came from,” Su Lin said with a smile.

“Right, where did Ye Feng get that 80,000 yuan? His family certainly can’t afford that much,” Xia Shiyu pondered.

“Hehe~! As long as it’s not stolen or robbed, and it’s legally earned, who cares where it came from?” Su Lin said, not wanting to continue the topic. “Xiaoyu, take my car and go back with me. Go to the bank and deposit the money.”

Xia Shiyu nodded. She had 80,000 yuan in her bag, and it was indeed nerve-wracking to carry that much money around.

Therefore, at the gate, everyone saw the scene of tears again. They saw the famous campus belle Xia Shiyu follow Su Lin into the Benz.

“Damn! They’re not even trying to hide it anymore. They’re riding in the same car. Are they going to Su Lin’s house tonight?”

“Bro, don’t be sour. They’re just going the same way.”

“Exactly, Goddess Xia isn’t that kind of person.”

“Sigh~! Su Lin is rich, good-looking, and smart. It’s normal for Goddess Xia to like him.”

In the car, Xia Shiyu and Su Lin sat together in the back. Previously, when she rode with Su Lin, there was no driver. But today was different. Liu Yong was calmly driving the car, occasionally glancing at Xia Shiyu in the rearview mirror.

“Uncle Liu, stop at the Great Xia Bank. Xiaoyu needs to do something.”

Liu Yong nodded expressionlessly.

Su Lin turned to Xia Shiyu, “Xiaoyu, do you want me to come with you?”

Xia Shiyu hurriedly shook her head, “No need, I can do it myself.”

“Is it safe for you to go alone?”

Xia Shiyu nodded, “My money is in my bag. As long as I don’t take it out, no one will know how much I have.”

Su Lin nodded, “That’s true, but still be careful. It’s best not to let others see your money in the bank.”

“Mm~!! Thank you, Su Lin.”

Su Lin pinched Xia Shiyu’s cheek, “No need to thank me.”

“Um~!!” Xia Shiyu sneakily glanced at Liu Yong, who was driving. Thankfully, he didn’t notice, or she would never dare to ride in Su Lin’s car again. Then, taking advantage of Su Lin’s distraction, she stealthily reached around his waist and pulled out the universal trump card used by women.

“Hiss~!!”

“You’re doing this too, Xiaoyu?”

Xia Shiyu stuck out her tongue, “It’s your fault for messing around in the car.”

Su Lin chuckled, “Alright, I’ll remember this. Just wait and see how you cry later.”

Xia Shiyu looked puzzled at Su Lin, not understanding what he meant.

Su Lin smiled mysteriously, not elaborating further. He didn’t want to be too obvious, lest he scare her.

“Young Master Su, we’ve arrived at the Great Xia Bank.”

Su Lin nodded, then turned to Xia Shiyu again, “Are you sure you don’t need me to accompany you?”

Xia Shiyu nodded, “No need, it’s close to the hospital, just a short walk.”

“Alright, then I’ll head back first. Message me when you get to the hospital.”

“Mhmm~!!” Xia Shiyu smiled sweetly, then opened the car door and got out.

Seeing Xia Shiyu leave, Liu Yong started the car again and said, “Young Master Su, you have good taste. This girl is not bad.”

Su Lin nodded. “Xiaoyu is indeed not bad.”

“Hehe!!” Seeing Su Lin’s arrogant look, Liu Yong laughed.

“What are you laughing at? Uncle Liu, hurry up, let’s go home!!!”
