Suppressing the Protagonist at the Start to Seize the Heroine

Chapter 18 : Ye Feng with Insufficient Intelligence

Looking at the angry Ye Feng, Su Lin knew that this guy was digging a hole for him. If he said that he looked down on him, he would take the opportunity to make a bet and amaze the world with a single brilliant feat during the monthly exam. Of course Su Lin wasn’t going to fall for that.

Shaking his head, Su Lin stated, “I never look down on someone who wants to study.”

Su Lin’s words had no sarcasm and his tone was gentle, which made Ye Feng look at Su Lin in surprise. ‘This guy didn’t take the bait?’

Unexpectedly, at the age of eighteen, this guy was already quite intelligent. No wonder his grades were so good; he was even able to expand his family’s real estate business beyond Jiangnan Province.

“Then what did you mean by what you said?” Ye Feng pressed.

Su Lin raised his eyebrows and pointed at Xia Shiyu. “If you want to know what I mean, ask Xiao Yu. Also, if you want to borrow notes, I think the first year’s notes are more suitable.”

Su Lin stood up and looked at Xia Shiyu. “Xiao Yu, I’m going to the washroom, you guys take your time.”

Ye Feng felt frustrated that Su Lin wasn’t following his script. He pretended to be sophisticated and then left. Moreover, he shifted the conversation to Xia Shiyu. Was he making Xia Shiyu the villain?

Sure enough, Xia Shiyu soon spoke, “Ye Feng, Su Lin is right. If you genuinely want to learn English, reviewing the notes from the third year won’t help. You should start from the first year.”

Hearing Xia Shiyu agree with Su Lin, Ye Feng felt annoyed and sneered, “Ha! Shiyu, since when did you have such a good relationship with Su Lin?”

Xia Shiyu’s chest rose and fell rapidly due to Ye Feng’s words. “Ye Feng, who I have a good relationship with, what does that have to do with you?”

“Uh…”

“You play games every day. Other than Xu Jie and Yan Huan, who else in the class is qualified to play with you?”

Having said that, Xia Shiyu felt regretful. Growing up together, she knew Ye Feng’s personality well. But thinking about what happened at home recently and Ye Feng’s indifferent attitude, she turned and walked out of the classroom.

Ye Feng wanted to say something, but when he turned around, Xia Shiyu was already at the door. He regained his composure only to see Lin Xiaowan giving him a disdainful look.

“I…” Ye Feng wanted to explain, but he found himself speechless. Anything he said now seemed like an excuse. He could only return to his seat, take out his notebook, and start jotting down major future events.

“Big Brother Feng, what are you writing? Why are you pressing it with your hand?”

“Nothing much.”

Xu Jie, who was curious, pried Ye Feng’s hand away. “What are you writing? Let me see.”

“You won’t understand it even if I show it to you.”

“Let me have a look.”

“Alright, alright, take a look.” Ye Feng opened the notebook and showed it to Xu Jie.

“What’s written here? I don’t understand a single word.”

“Hehe, I told you that you wouldn’t understand even if I showed you but you insisted on seeing it.”

When Ye Feng saw Xu Jie, the plan in his heart gradually became clear. But when he thought about how close Su Lin and Xia Shiyu were, he frowned again.

“Looks like I was too reckless this time. They’re all seventeen or eighteen years old. I can’t treat them like children. Otherwise, I’ll be the clown.”

Noon came and the last class ended.

Ye Feng already had a plan in his mind. When he left the school with Xia Shiyu, he would find a way to ask Xia Shiyu to lend him the fifty thousand yuan. But when he met up with Xia Shiyu, Ye Feng was dumbfounded. “Xiao Yu, didn’t you say you were going to the hospital to see Uncle Xia?”

“Yeah, let’s go and send money to my dad. He still owes a lot in medical expenses.” Xia Shiyu said casually.

“Then they…”

Lin Xiaowan frowned. “We’ll go to the hospital with Shiyu. She has more than two hundred and eighty thousand yuan with her. How can there be no protection?”

“Two hundred and eighty thousand??!!!!”

“Why is it two hundred and eighty thousand? Where did this amount come from?” Ye Feng felt his memory collapsing. In his memory, there were only a little over fifty thousand. How did it suddenly become over two hundred thousand?

Su Lin looked at Ye Feng as if he were an idiot. “Ye Feng, are you still not awake? This over two hundred thousand is the donation from the school for Xiaoyu’s dad.”

“Ah? More than two hundred thousand yuan, where did it come from? ”

Su Lin smiled. “This is all thanks to our class leader’s generosity. She alone donated two hundred and twenty thousand yuan. She’s really a role model for our generation.”

After Su Lin finished speaking, he faced two pairs of eyes staring at him, one was Lin Xiaowan’s eye roll, and the other from Xia Shiyu, filled with gratitude.

Ye Feng looked at Lin Xiaowan like she was a monster. “How did two hundred and twenty thousand suddenly appear?”

Hearing Ye Feng’s muttering, Lin Xiaowan’s face darkened. She kicked Su Lin and said, “Don’t talk to him. This guy is playing dumb.”

“Let’s go. Although the hospital is not far, we still have to get back before self-study class.”

Su Lin nodded with a serious face. “Aright.”

After that, the three of them walked toward the school gate together. Only Ye Feng followed behind the three of them and kept talking to himself.

Ye Feng, looking at Lin Xiaowan and Xia Shiyu being so intimate with Su Lin, felt his temples throbbing.

“Everything has changed. Why and how did Lin Xiaowan suddenly donate so much? Although her family is wealthy, I remember she only donated a thousand…”

“Even if you take away two hundred and twenty thousand yuan, it still doesn’t add up. There’s still a difference of sixty thousand yuan. How can this be?”

Looking at the three people ahead talking and laughing, Ye Feng’s mentality collapsed again. Especially seeing Lin Xiaowan and Xia Shiyu being so close to Su Lin. In his previous life, the two of them didn’t interact much in school.

“Is it because of my rebirth that there’s a butterfly effect? But I was reborn today, and the donation was a few days ago. Everything should have developed according to the original trajectory. How can there be a butterfly effect?”

Despite having more than ten years of experience from his past life, Ye Feng was now somewhat puzzled. “Could I have remembered it wrong?”

“Other things might be wrong, but donations can’t be wrong. Fifty thousand and over two hundred thousand are still distinguishable, and this was a donation from a single person.”

“Lin Xiaowan… Could Lin Xiaowan also have been reborn?”

“No, it’s impossible. If Lin Xiaowan really is, and she wants to help Xia Shiyu, she wouldn’t have donated just over two hundred thousand. Plus, a person’s experience and temperament can’t be concealed. She is a genuine high school student.”

“Forget it, maybe I’m overthinking. This world might be a parallel world, not the original world I came from.”

“If that is the case, some changes are normal. With more than two hundred thousand yuan, it’s easier for me to operate.”
