That guy who's down there deserves to die.

He Li was busy all morning.

Too many people came to try out their game.

More players also meant it was easier to find problems.

He Li had to record and deal with all those big and small issues.

He also had to handle other minor problems that popped up from time to time.

For example, arguments over machines, cutting in line, and so on.

Fortunately, Zhou Qingming and his subordinates were there to help today.

Otherwise, He Li and the others wouldn't have been able to handle it. The good news was that by lunchtime, some people had finally dispersed, and He Li and the others could finally relax and rest for a bit.

Miao Xiaoyu thoughtfully brought him a drink.

"Are you hungry? Rest here for a while."

"I'll go outside and buy you something to eat!"

Wiping the sweat from He Li's forehead, Miao Xiaoyu said and then got up, preparing to go outside to buy food for He Li.

He Li, however, held her small hand: "You rest too."

"You haven't been idle just now, let them go buy it!"

He pointed to Zhou Qingming's subordinates, but Miao Xiaoyu shook her head.

"They don't know what you like to eat."

"I'll go, it's not far, I'll be back soon!"

"Then have Zhou Qingming send someone to help you carry things!"

"Hehe, don't worry, I know~"

With a sweet smile, Miao Xiaoyu quickly went outside with one of Zhou Qingming's subordinates. Zhou Qingming only sneaked over and sat next to He Li after Miao Xiaoyu had walked far away.

"Big Sister-in-law is really good to Big Brother!"

His words were filled with envy.

He was truly envious. A noble young lady like Miao Xiaoyu was so gentle and considerate by He Li's side, even better than those women who only came for his background and money.

He couldn't quite understand how He Li did it.

He Li just smiled when he heard this.

"Couples who exchange hearts are like this!"

"Even if I told you, you wouldn't be able to understand it now."

"When you find your true love, then perhaps you'll know why your Big Sister-in-law is so gentle!" He said, and Zhou Qingming nodded, half-understanding, indeed not quite clear.

After all, he had never been in a sincere relationship.

"Hey, Big Brother, look, a girl is coming over!"

"Tsk tsk, looking at that figure, she's at least an 85!"

"Big Brother, do you think she's looking for you?"

Zhou Qingming suddenly spoke again. He Li, who was drinking water, put down his bottle and looked in the direction he was pointing. He saw Zhang Yuhan approaching from not far away, wearing a short skirt and a shirt that made her legs look long.

As she continuously approached, her pair of fair, long legs attracted more burning gazes from boys with each step.

However, He Li had no intention of appreciating it.

Miao Xiaoyu's fair long legs were much prettier than hers.

Zhang Yuhan's offerings simply couldn't sway He Li!

He Li was just a bit curious, why was this girl, who had previously called him an Annoying Man and had a very bad impression of him, coming over? Could it really be, as Zhou Qingming said, that she was still coming for He Li?

Why? He Li frowned, his peripheral vision caught Zhou Qingming beside him suddenly showing a hint of a smile.

At the same time, Zhang Yuhan approached.

She stopped in front of He Li, revealing a gentle smile.

"So you're this year's Top Scholar from our province!"

"Why didn't you say so earlier? You made me misunderstand you."

"But it's a good thing the previous misunderstanding has been cleared up."

"Here, this Top Scholar Big Brother, my name is Zhang Yuhan. May we get to know each other again?"

Saying this, she extended her fair and delicate hand.

He Li glanced at her hand but didn't take it.

He merely responded coldly: "My name is He Li."

"Do you have anything else?"

Anything else? Of course she did. Zhang Yuhan withdrew her hand somewhat awkwardly, seeing He Li's cold demeanor. While she was displeased in her heart, she was also a bit angry at He Li's attitude.

"You clearly wanted to hook up with me, and before you even pretended to want my phone number!"

"But now that I'm actively approaching..."

"You're playing hard to get with me, aren't you?"

In Zhang Yuhan's eyes, He Li was just pretending to be aloof.

Perhaps there was even a hint of revenge in it.

"Isn't it just because you actively hit on me before, and I didn't realize you had a big background and rejected you? But didn't you already embarrass me and get your revenge then?"

"Now you're still at it? How can you be so resentful? Such a small-minded man!"

The more Zhang Yuhan thought about it, the stronger her dissatisfaction grew.

However, she wasn't foolish enough to immediately turn hostile.

"Hmph, never mind, I'll endure it for now."

"Just you wait, once I've hooked you and got you under my thumb."

"Then I'll spend your money, use your connections, and get proper revenge to let you know the consequences of treating me this way!" Zhang Yuhan secretly vowed in her heart, but the smile on her face didn't falter.

She merely feigned shyness and said, "I just came over to formally get to know you and explain what happened before..."

"I said I had a boyfriend because I misunderstood you."

"After all, I'm always being hit on, it's quite troublesome!"

"Of course, I actually don't have a boyfriend."

"Oh!" He Li's tone remained cold.

He didn't care whether Zhang Yuhan had a boyfriend.

He just thought this person was crazy; he already had a girlfriend who was even prettier than her, so where did she get the confidence to actively try to hook up with him under such circumstances?

He Li found it a bit hard to understand.

In fact, no one else around understood either.

But besides not understanding, they also felt envy, jealousy, and hatred... "No way? This guy already has a super beautiful girlfriend, and yet there's still a beauty actively trying to hook up with him?"

"Is this the inherent advantage of being handsome?"

"Hmph, once my game is thriving, I'll get plastic surgery!"

"Then I'll also experience what it's like to be surrounded by beauties."

"Beauty, look at me, I'm still single!"

"Oh, why bother, beauty? You're so pretty, wouldn't it be better to hit on me instead of someone who already has a girlfriend?"

"This guy, he's probably going to be two-timing..."

...He Li's expression remained unchanged as he listened to the surrounding voices.

Zhang Yuhan smiled slightly and said, "He Li, look, it's lunchtime. How about we go have a meal?"

"Consider it my apology for what happened before, what do you say?"

"It's my first time inviting a boy to a meal,"

Her cheeks flushed slightly, and she put on a shy expression.

But in her heart, she was cursing: "So troublesome!"

"Annoying Man, you just have to pretend to be aloof and make me shamelessly pursue you, making yourself seem so outstanding, right?"

"If it weren't for your mysterious background..."

"This young lady wouldn't bother with you!"

"Alright, hurry up and agree, otherwise, if I leave later, you'll regret it!"

Zhang Yuhan urged impatiently in her heart. She seemed to completely disregard the possibility that He Li might reject her. After all, she was so beautiful; how could He Li, as a normal man, not be tempted by such a proactive beauty?

However, Zhang Yuhan was ultimately going to miscalculate.

He Li watched her wildly overacting, remaining as still and cold as a block of wood.

"No, I don't want to make my girlfriend unhappy!"

"Also, forget about the apology, I'm a magnanimous person."

"I didn't take that little matter to heart!"

"You can leave now, my girlfriend is coming back with my food."

His voice was cold, yet it was like a fierce winter wind, blowing over the originally confident and even somewhat impatient Zhang Yuhan, instantly chilling her from head to toe and making her stiffen on the spot.

She stared at He Li in disbelief... She, Zhang Yuhan, was actually rejected by this guy?

She had been so humble, even shamelessly approaching He Li to talk and give him a chance to pursue her, and he rejected her? How could this Annoying Man be so disrespectful to her?

She, Zhang Yuhan, was the School Beauty of Third High!

She had looks, she had a figure.

Even academically, she was among the top students in the school.

There were countless people pursuing her at school!

She was so outstanding, actively throwing herself at He Li and giving him a chance... He should be grateful, like a Simp, quickly cling to her, please her, break up with his girlfriend, and then buy all the things she wanted as gifts and confess to her.

How could he be so disrespectful to her, rejecting her in front of so many people and making her lose face?

This Annoying Man, he truly deserves to die!

Zhang Yuhan clenched her small fists, her face grim...
