Chapter 6 — I'm Already Excellent

The more I talked, the angrier I became, anger rising straight to the top of my head.
“Do you know if anything happens today, you will be disciplined?!”
“For a bunch of worthless scum, are you planning to drag down your entire future?!”
I tightened my grip on his ear, whispering each word:
“Jiang Ze, tell me—is it worth it?”
Jiang Ze's face was red and his eyes were a little embarrassed. He moved his lips, his voice weakened:
“But… I'm too worried about you.”
I frowned, my voice sharp:
“Don't you know how to call the police?”
“If something like this happens again in the future, are you still going to lead your juniors to fight with sticks?”
"Who do you think you are? And what is a police officer?"
“Don't drag yourself down because of those who don't deserve it, understand?!”
Before I could finish speaking—
“Like Nhu…”
A weak but serious voice rang out from behind. I immediately turned around. My mother is awake.

I frowned. I was so tired all day, but late at night I could still hear soft crying outside the window. It's really annoying. Unable to bear it anymore, I went outside, intending to see which ghost was crying and scaring people like this in the middle of the night. Walking there, I saw a figure sitting huddled in the corner of the wall. Darkness falls, hair falls out, appearance trembles... Very good. A free man who eats his fill cosplays the witch Sadako to scare him in the middle of the night. The more I look, the angrier I get. I put my hands on my hips and shouted:
“Hey, raise your head!”
The other person slowly raised his head.
“Pop—pop!”
Without thinking, I swung my hand straight and gave two parallel slaps. A slap cures crying for no reason. One slap cures a scare in the middle of the night. I had just finished beating him and was about to scold him again when... The other person's face gradually appeared under the streetlight. Me: “……” Damn. Why Jiang Ze?! He hugged his cheeks, his eyes were red, his voice choked:
“Le Le… you hit me…”
Comments immediately exploded: 【I'm crazy! The male lead hid in the corner crying but was mistakenly beaten by the female side to be a witch!!!】 【What is this?!! Could it be that because of being scolded during the day, the male lead was so upset that he went to the corner to cry at night?】 【Even more unbelievable... after being beaten twice, the male lead didn't even dare to resist, and cried even more in self-pity?】 【Oh my god, from the beginning until now... I really can't see him as the male lead anymore!】 I looked at Jiang Ze's pitiful face and was speechless for a few seconds. Finally, me
I could only suppress my frustration and take a deep breath.
“Say, what are you doing here?”
“Huhuhuhu—”
Jiang Ze cried even louder. I cried so much that I almost thought I had done something horribly cruel. Me: “……” Completely done. Not Sadako. It's really Jiang Ze. A Giang Trach was squatting in the corner of the wall, crying until his eyes and nose were dirty. Comments exploded: 【WHAT IS THIS?! THE MALE LEAD IS SITTING IN THE CORNER OF THE WALL CRYING LIKE A CHILD JUST Abandoned?!】 【I really don't understand anymore... What is the best male character?
cold and arrogant god, why do I only see a pitiful puppy that needs to be comforted?】 【Hahahaha, he cried so much that I wanted to throw away the male lead's script!】 I was speechless, looked at him for a few seconds, then sighed:
“Giang Trach, what are you doing?”
He didn't say anything, just covered his face and sobbed. The more you cry, the louder you cry. Me: “……” Comment: 【What is he crying? Who bullied him? Did he hit him too hard?】 【No, I feel like he was abandoned by his girlfriend, so frustrated that he ran to the corner of the wall
cry more silently!】 【It's dangerous, I'm starting to stop seeing him as the main male lead! I really feel like he's too weak!】 Finally, I took a deep breath and put my hands on my hips:
“Talk, stop crying!”
Giang Trach:
“I'm sad…”
“You scold me during the day, and at night you beat me… Hu hu hu… I'm really sad…”
“Le Le, don't you love me?”
Me: “……” Comment: 【DONE! MALE LEAD TURNED INTO A PUPPY WAITING TO BE LOVED!】

The feeling of guilt arose again. Before my eyes, Jiang Ze cried until his nose was red and his eyes were wet. His face, which was originally white, now looked strangely weak because of tears. It also makes people unable to help but feel sad. I sighed, lowered my voice and asked:
“Is it painful?”
As I spoke, I raised my hand, intending to gently touch his cheek. But before I could touch him, he grabbed my hand and pulled it up to his face. I was stunned. My hand touched his warm face. He looked at me, his eyes sparkling
water, her voice carried gentle anxiety:
“Le Le, your hands are so cold.”
“Let me help you warm up, okay?”
I was speechless. It was clear that the person who was beaten was him. But is he worried that I'm cold? Is this person... too stupid? My heart vibrated, as if something had stabbed me. Not wanting to think further, I deliberately changed the subject:
“Answer me, why are you still sitting here in the middle of the night?”
“If you cry to this extent, outsiders will probably think I'm bullying you!”
Giang Trach bowed his head, his voice trembling slightly:
“I'm afraid.”
I frowned.
“Afraid of what?”
Before I could understand clearly, he suddenly nuzzled my neck. Warm breath blew against my skin, bringing with it a vague shiver.
“I'm afraid you'll disappear.”
“So scared that I just want to be by your side forever.”
I stiffened. His words were gentle, but they pierced deep into my heart. Makes me not know how to react. Comments exploded: 【Completely done! THE MALE LEAD IS COMPLETELY ENJOYED!】 【It's not that the gods like the male lead, but
is the male lead who is completely dependent on the god student!】 【The school god now just needs to push him away, he will cry like an abandoned puppy immediately!】 【I'm scared... the male lead has no way to escape anymore!】 I swallowed hard. The hand placed on his back trembled slightly. Finally, I took a deep breath and said softly:
“Raise your head.”
Jiang Ze did not move. I repeat again:
“Jiang Ze, raise your head.”
Slowly, he left my neck and looked up at me. His eyes were still a little wet, but there was a trace of expectation in them. I was silent for a few seconds. Then, I raised my hand—
“Pop!”
Comments exploded again: 【I'm crazy! Just three seconds into the warmth, the student slapped him again!】 【Oh my god! Is this slap to wake me up or is it a slap to deny it because I'm too shaken?!】 【I don't care, I just want to scream! The male lead completely turned into a puppy who was slapped in the face but still waiting to be praised!】 Jiang Ze hugged his face, feeling sorry for himself:
“Le Le…”
I patted his head, calmly saying:
"Okay, boyfriend. If you've cried enough, go back to sleep."
“I still have to study tomorrow.”
He cried, but still obediently nodded. After that, he still regretfully snuggled one more time before he stood up and left. I stood still, watching his back fade away. The hand still retained the warmth from his skin. Inside, something shook strongly. I don't want to admit it. But maybe— He has really entered my heart. I tried to hold back the urge to wave my hands
one more time. Taking a deep breath, I looked straight into Giang Trach's eyes, my voice extremely serious:
“Listen.”
"I never expected you to save me. I just believed in myself."
“So, don't take yourself too seriously.”
I stopped for a moment. Then, the voice lowered and softened a bit:
“But…”
“Thank you, Jiang Ze.”
By the last sentence, I felt my ears get a little hot. Slightly tilting my head, I whispered like a light joke:
“This filial twenty-four-year-old boyfriend is not doing too bad.”
Comments immediately went crazy: 【DONE! DONE! IT'S DONE!】 【THIS IS AN ADMISSION! THE SCHOOL GOD HAS FINALLY RECOGNIZED THE MALE LEAD!】 【Mom, this part makes my heart jump! She doesn't need the male lead to save her, but she's still grateful to him!】 【God, I've never seen a male lead being mistreated and still feel so crazy happy!】 The moment I finished speaking, the furry head in front of me shook harder. After
There, I felt my shoulders getting wet. Accompanied by a soft sob. Werwer…”
“Huhuhuhuhu…”
Me: “……”
“Crying again?!”
I tightened my grip, but in the end I still sighed and raised my hand to pat his head.
“If you keep crying like this, your blessings will be wiped out.”
“Don't cry anymore, do you hear me?”
He snuggled his head into my arms, his voice muffled:
“Um…”
