Chapter 2 — I'm Already Excellent

3

After another month's exam, I still firmly sit on the first-class throne. The score was even higher than last time, just a little away from a perfect score. But looking at Jiang Ze... it seems that due to being assigned too many errands by me, his study time decreased, his performance not only did not increase but also dropped to third place. He sat sullenly on the chair, looking like the Great Emperor had just had part of his soul cut off. I couldn't bear to look anymore, so I picked up a book and threw it on his desk.

"After school, I'll tutor you."

Those beautiful eyes immediately lit up.

“Le Le, you are so good to me.”

Good on your head! I just want to take this opportunity to check my knowledge and find gaps by teaching again. It is said that when experts communicate with each other, they will help improve their skills. But this damn Jiang Ze— Halfway through the exam, he started looking at me blankly. Make sure your scores don't drop. I really didn't expect that someone could cause my IQ to decrease so quickly. Unable to bear it anymore, I swung my hand and lightly slapped him on the face.

"Put that stupid look away, Jiang Ze! Look at the assignment! Even the units are written wrongly?!"

Just after beating him, he froze, I was also stunned. Damn, it's a bit... happy. Especially when that slap landed on a handsome face. I was still thinking about how Jiang Ze was going to react, but he just silently bowed his head, the corners of his eyes were slightly red. Then, within 5 minutes, he completely solved the problem that had just taken 30 minutes. …Huh? Isn't this the effect I need? Never mind, regardless of whether it is a standard educational method or not, as long as it is effective. Anyway, for someone like me who studies intensely… One slap—solved the problem. Slap once—IQ increases. This feeling... is quite stress-relieving.

After reviewing, Jiang Ze and I seemed to have reached a kind of hidden rule. Is he distracted? I slapped. Did he do wrong? I slapped. My thoughts are stuck? I also slapped. Learning efficiency immediately increased three or four times. It's just... the price to pay is a bit big. Jiang Ze's white face gradually became imprinted with faint handprints, looking as if he had just come back from basking in the sun at the wrong angle. At the end of the slapping, I even felt a bit unwilling to strike again. But unexpectedly, Jiang Ze quietly moved closer, his voice was so gentle and gentle that it made people's skin crawl:

“Le Le, it's okay.”

“If you want to fight then go ahead, this is the responsibility of a devoted boyfriend…”

Pop— Another slap was reflexively thrown. There's no other way, his expression of noble resignation and sacrifice is so hateful, I can't stand it if I don't slap him. Comments immediately exploded: 【This plot is getting more and more wrong, does the male lead have the physical ability to like to be abused?】 【What kind of text is this for a male frequency, I want to refund!】 【No refund, someone is very excited, I see the female supporting character is extremely happy.】 【Not sure, I see the male lead is also enjoying it a lot, look at his red neck, don't let him I choked to the point of internal injuries.】 The class ended, Jiang Ze walked out of the classroom first. Immediately, his friends rushed around. See faint fingerprints blurred on his face, everyone was dumbfounded.

"Giang, Giang brother! Just now there was a booming electric shock sound in the classroom, so it turns out you were slapped by a student? That's not right, this matter must be fair to you..."

The brother had just taken a step forward when Jiang Ze roared and called back.

"Everyone stop! Don't worry about nonsense, go back to my place!"

The whole crowd: “???” Jiang Ze gently rubbed his face that still had fingerprints on it, the corners of his lips curled up proudly:

“Don't be stupid, do you know the saying 'hitting is love, scolding is love'?”

The whole group still hadn't had time to digest, Jiang Ze raised his chin, looking extremely confident:

“Le Le, clearly loves me to death.”

The friends were immediately excited:

“So that means, Giang brother, you are about to regain your first place position?”

But the man basically didn't hear it. Just quietly walked forward, silently rubbing the slap mark on his face as he walked. Then... whispered a sentence that made everyone speechless:

“So fragrant…”

The whole group: “……” From behind, I looked at his back with a dumbfounded expression. The corners of the lips twitched. It's not okay. This guy... is hopeless. He and I really can't share the same brain waves.

“Don't be afraid, Le Le, I'm here!”

Me: “……” Does he think he's the main character in a superhero movie? But without waiting for me to refute, Jiang Ze placed a hand on his chest, his eyes determined:

“Don't worry, I will get you out. Even if I have to break the door and rush out, I will absolutely not let you be locked here another second longer!”

I looked at the door, then looked at him again.

“……”

The outside door latch is just an old rope, not to mention there is also an open window frame. He just acted like this was a secret room with no way out. Comments began to explode: 【Cough, I have a bad feeling…】 【Hahahaha, does he think he's in an action movie?】 【Male protagonist, I beg you, is it okay to use IQ before using muscles?】 But as expected, Jiang Ze didn't look at the door at all, he rolled up his sleeves, lifted his feet—

“Pop!”

I stood and watched him in so much pain that he hugged his legs and jumped around, kicking hard at the steel door that wasn't affected at all. I sighed, walked over and gently pulled the latch.

“Clack.”

The door opens. Outside, the sun was bright and the wind was blowing gently. I slowly turned my head to look at Jiang Ze, the corners of my lips curled up into a half-smile.

“Boyfriend, next time can you use your brain first?”

Jiang Ze: “……” At this moment, the comments also exploded: 【I don't know what to say, the female supporting character is more cheerful than the male lead, refund refund!】 【No refund at all! I watch this story because of the female supporting character, she's so good!】 【Another day the male lead gets slapped in the face in a way that couldn't be more stupid.】 …also a bit adorable. I immediately slapped myself in the face in my heart. Impossible, absolutely impossible! A boy nearly eight feet tall, aggressively declaring that he would protect me, yet he was so afraid of a cockroach that he jumped up and down, cursing wildly? It's true that the play "the hero saves the beauty" is turned in the direction of the beauty killing the cockroaches to save the hero. Comments immediately exploded: 【I don't believe it, my male lead can't be afraid of cockroaches!】 【I think this is the bright spot, the story is boring when the male lead only carries the burden, it's fun to have such a dominant female supporting character!】 【Someone tell me, has anyone ever See a young master who has never met a cockroach in real life? I need to investigate, is this a script bug?】 But never mind, I have completed an important task—resolving the cockroach. I brushed my hands off, looked indifferently at Jiang Ze, who was still stunned, then raised my eyebrows and asked:

“Boyfriend, do you still want to protect me?”

Jiang Ze pursed his lips, quietly swallowed his saliva, then seriously patted his chest:

"Yes! But... if you encounter cockroaches again, just handle it. I will stand by your side and cheer for you!"

Me: “……” Okay, it looks like you know yourself and know me. I looked at Jiang Ze with a depressed expression. Since when did the male protagonist in this plot become the protected one instead of the protector? But more importantly, this guy also felt very happy with it. Comments exploded again: 【Very good, the male lead has now become a fascinated person, I feel so reassured by the plot turning up like this.】 【So cute! This is the first time I read a male story and fell in love with a female supporting character like that. Chu Thanh Le is too strong, studies well, has a strong mentality, and acts decisively! I want to love her!】 【Wait, don't rush everyone, I believe in the self-correcting power of plot. It will return to the right trajectory!】 【Don't fool yourself anymore, friend, I just want to ask you one question—have you eaten yet?】 【And the other guy, the one who has been silent for a while now—have you washed your hair?】 I snorted softly, glaring at Jiang Ze:

"Okay, stand up. Don't look at me with those eyes, I won't adopt you."

But a certain name still smirked, his eyes curled like a dog that had just been praised by its owner. Damn it… I can't go on anymore. If I hang around with him any longer, I'm afraid I'll be the one whose boat will capsize.
