I Am A Prodigy

Peking University was not far, so Ye Lingchen walked the rest of the way.

Behind him, the young woman hesitated for a moment before running after him.

“Hey, I’m sorry for mistaking your intentions.”

Ye Lingchen ignored her.

“Hey, what’s with your attitude? I’ve already apologized, and you didn’t tell me that they were traffickers.”

Getting the cold shoulder from Ye Lingchen, the young woman resorted to blocking Ye Lingchen’s path directly, “I’m talking to you. Can you hear me?”

Ye Lingchen finally looked at the young woman in front of him.

Clear eyes, white teeth, fair complexion, and a pretty face. Comparable to even Xiao Feifei. Add to that her prideful personality, it triggers the urge within others to dominate her.

“I’m afraid that you would mistake it as me hitting on you if I have another word with you,” replied Ye Lingchen casually, making it awkward for the young woman.

“Also, I have told you my name before. I’m not HEY!”

Showing no emotion, he simply walked around the young woman. Peking University was already within view. The young woman pouted, then followed behind Ye Lingchen, taking an occasional peek at his back.

Peking University, China’s number one academic institution.

The main gate was a classical palace-style vermilion gate, located in the East facing Westward. The height was no taller than eight meters. The rustic architecture demonstrated solemnity and elegance, emanating a strong nationalistic feel. On the sides of the gates were two stone lions standing majestically.

Within campus grounds, students were going coming and going, jovially chatting.

Young men and young women making up the scenic view.

Vroom—

The roaring sound of an engine approached. A scarlet Audi R8 sports car zoomed over like a flying fireball, pulled over in front of Ye Lingche, blocking his path.

A guy with a well-tailored suit came down from the car with his hair combed in a ducktail style, sporting a pair of shiny leather shoes.

In his hands was a big bundle of red roses.

“Look, it’s He Yuan!”

“Wow, so handsome!”

“He’s holding flowers. Is he getting ready to propose? So romantic…”

“If Young Master He proposes to me like this, I’ll definitely pass out from happiness.”

…

Around them, countless cries from obsessive fans could be heard, causing Ye Lingchen to take a better look at this guy.

Handsome features, paired with youth, wealth, and a bold fashion sense as well as sporting a breezy smile on his face. No wonder he could be a lady-killer.

He Yuan passed by Ye Lingchen without paying him any heed. He came up to the young woman, “Muxue, why didn’t you notify me that you’re coming here? I could’ve given you a ride.”

Li Muxue scowled and coldly replied, “Thank you for your offer. I’m that close to you yet.”

He Yuan had already gotten used to Li Muxue’s attitude. He maintained his smile and delivered the rose in his hand, “I passed by the florist and thought that this flower suited you. I hope you like it.”

He was smart with his words, not gifting it to her in a direct manner, making it difficult for most girls to reject.

However, Li Muxue strode forward without accepting the rose but instead walked up to Ye Lingchen’s side. She hooked her arm around Ye Lingchen’s elbow, faking intimacy.

“Young Master He, I’m sorry. If I accepted that flower, I’m afraid my boyfriend would be angry.”

In that moment, the surrounding crowd widened their eyes in shock.

The gazes from the crowd fell upon Ye Lingchen.

Simple clothing, decent temperament, and slightly attractive appearance. However, he was still mundane.

This guy was Li Muxue’s boyfriend?

The unexpected development placed a frown upon Ye Lingchen’s forehead.

This woman! She was using him as a shield!

Back when he was on the bus, Ye Lingchen already noticed that this woman was narcissistic with a lofty air about her, as though all the men in this world should revolve around her.

Perhaps in her heart, she might be smug, thinking that having Ye Lingchen be her shield was an honorable act for him.

After using Ye Lingchen, she could just move on without a care, but Ye Lingchen would end up receiving the hatred from many men, especially from He Yuan. His face was already dark and gloomy, staring at Ye Lingchen with deep resentment.

Like the story of Helen of Troy, beauty was the root of many troubles.

He had barely started school, and because of this woman’s whims, it may cause him extreme inconvenience!

“Your boyfriend?”

Unsurprisingly, He Yuan walked up to Ye Lingchen.

His head held high, eyes filled with contempt, “A piss poor person like him, how different is he from a beggar? Do you think I would believe such lies?”

“Lil’ bugger, get out of here if you know what’s good for you. I’m someone you can’t afford to cross!”

Before Li Muxue could reply, Ye Lingchen grabbed her in his arms.

Right after, he plunged his head and kissed her!

He Yuan was stunned, Li Muxue was stunned, everyone around was stunned!

Three seconds later, Ye Lingchen licked his lips and stared directly at He Yuan, “Now do you believe it?”

“You!” He Yuan felt that his lungs were about to explode. His eyes red, locking onto Ye Lingchen.

From the first time he saw Li Muxue, he had already sworn to take this woman his own. After an entire year, he employed countless tactics, yet at this moment, he witnessed his goddess being defiled by a toad¹.

The sight was suffocating him.

“What about me?”

Ye Lingchen smiled mischievously, “I’ll have you know that I’ve not only kissed her, but I’ve even slept with her!”

Whoosh!

That moment, not only He Yuan, but the entire crowd erupted.

Instantly, looks of jealousy and hatred congregated in a frenzy!

Li Muxue recovered from her daze. Her entire face turned scarlet, glaring at Ye Lingchen. Her gaze looked as though she was trying to skin Ye Lingchen alive.

However, the show must go on. She could not back off now.

“You!” He Yuan’s face turned green, he sneered while pointing at Ye Lingchen, “You have guts! Just you wait!”

He turned around and left the scene, too embarrassed to stay there any longer.

“Ye Lingchen! What’s the meaning of this? Who permitted you to sully my name? Also, since when did I say you could kiss me!” Li Muxue exploded in a fit of rage, giving Ye Lingchen a death stare.

Ye Lingchen threw a disgusted look at Li Muxue, “Your name is worth something, and mine isn’t?”

“You’re a boy, how can you compare with me?” Li Muxue glared at Ye Lingchen, “Today, you must clarify with everyone that I didn’t… do that with you!”

“Did you know how much trouble you will cause me when you used me as a shield?” Ye Lingchen stared at Li Muxue, “Since you said we’re a couple, were my actions wrong?”

With that, he attempted to leave.

“Stay where you are!”

“Scram!” barked Ye Lingchen, then proceeded to walk around Li Muxue.

Li Muxue stared at Ye Lingchen’s back, flabbergasted. In the end, she did not run after him. She could only angrily stomp on the ground, “Ye Lingchen, I’ll remember you!”

Following the registration procedure, he paid the tuition fees, collected the necessities and martial training uniform, after which Ye Lingchen headed towards his dormitory.

Orchid Lodge, room 204.

“F*ck! What are you doing? Don’t just observe from behind, rush forward!”

“Use your skills! Are your skills for decorations?”

“The way you’re playing, are you trolling?”

In the four-person dormitory, three were present. Ye Lingchen was the last to arrive.

One tall and dark, One muscular with glasses, and a slightly chubby one.

When Ye Lingchen entered, all three screens were darkened, indicating that their team was wiped out.

“Our new roommate is here, welcome!”

The three of them were passionate at Ye Lingchen’s arrival.

After some simple introductions, they went back to their game. However, based on the occasional outburst of curses, the results were unsatisfactory.

The tall, dark one was from Lianyungang. His height measured at 192cm looked like an athlete. His name was Gong Heng, with his nickname being Lil’ Gen by taking apart the word Heng¹.

The one with the glasses was Jia Yunxiang, nickname Xiang.

The chubby one was Zhang Ziyan, nickname Potato.

Ye Lingchen’s bed was number three on the upper bunk.

Having settled his bedsheets, the blankets folded, and having finished some simple cleaning, Ye Lingchen took out the two wolf pups, placing them on the balcony.

Having learned how to tame animals, Ye Lingchen took care of the two wolf pups with ease, and the pups were very reliant upon Ye Lingchen. They rolled about in his embrace for quite a while before they were satisfied.

Putting down the wolf pups, Ye Lingchen walked up behind the three of them to observe the battle.

They were playing Dota. Xiang was a veteran player. Potato and Lil’ Gen, however, were most likely newbies. Their actions mostly incomprehensible, incurring Xiang’s complaints constantly…
