Chapter 5: Lesson

Time gradually passed, and as night fell, another day came to an end.

Ye Xuan stretched lazily and looked at the notebook in his hand. The notebook recorded key events and milestones for the next twenty years, densely packed with information.

With this notebook, Ye Xuan could be prepared for many future events and face them calmly.

He tucked the notebook containing records of major future events into his pocket and walked to Su Mengli’s side.

Many people secretly glanced at the two of them, surprised. This Ye Xuan was quite bold. Wasn’t he afraid of being dealt with by Zheng Biao?

Su Mengli also felt the strange gazes around her. Her cheeks slightly flushed, but she pretended nothing was wrong and stood up.

Only now did Ye Xuan notice that although Su Mengli was tall, she was only about 1.7 meters, about ten centimeters shorter than him.

But in her previous life, after Su Mengli became the lofty Red Lotus Empress, her aura was so powerful that everyone looked up to her, ignoring her true height.

The two left together, with Ye Xuan in front and Su Mengli behind him. It was very quiet.

After walking for a while, Su Mengli asked, “Ye Xuan, aren’t you afraid of getting beaten?”

Ye Xuan confidently replied, “Just Zheng Biao? Who knows who will beat whom! Even if I can’t win, at most I’ll get beaten up a bit. It’s not a big deal.”

Su Mengli nodded and seemed to have made a decision. She followed Ye Xuan resolutely.

She had already decided that if they really started fighting later on, even though she was a girl, she would rush forward and leave some wounds on Zheng Biao! She absolutely couldn’t let Ye Xuan bear it alone!

Finally, the two of them left, pushing the cart. As soon as they stepped out, they saw Zheng Biao and his gang casually hanging around at the entrance.

When Zheng Biao saw Ye Xuan and Su Mengli, he walked over.

He put his arm around Ye Xuan’s shoulder and took a puff of smoke before arrogantly saying, “Kid, let’s have a chat over there?”

“Sure, let’s chat,” Ye Xuan replied.

Then the group walked towards a small alley not far from the entrance, with many people following to watch the excitement.

Su Mengli was nervous at this moment. She was just an ordinary girl who usually faced exclusion from those around her. How could she have experienced such a scene?

Summoning her courage, she tried to keep her body from trembling too much and followed along.

As soon as they entered the alley, without saying a word, Zheng Biao kicked Ye Xuan’s bike with one foot, completely wrecking it. This was Zheng Biao asserting his dominance.

Seeing this, Ye Xuan also became angry. What the fuck? If you want to fight, then fight! Why destroy my ride?

His anger surged from within as he delivered a fierce kick directly to Zheng Biao’s crotch.

Although Zheng Biao was big and tall, Ye Xuan was in good physical condition as well.

In terms of height and strength, Ye Xuan was slightly inferior to Zheng Biao. However, this difference wasn’t enough for complete domination.

And with this kick being both sudden and hitting right on target…

Zheng Biao hadn’t trained in iron crotch techniques either. He fell to the ground in pain while clutching his groin area.

Seeing this scene unfold before them, several of Zheng Biao’s lackeys cursed under their breaths and charged towards Ye Xuan.

Ye Xuan directly engaged in combat with these people. It was difficult for him to avoid getting injured when facing multiple opponents, but he used his extensive combat skills to try and avoid targeting vital areas.

When he struck, it was always at critical points such as the crotch, nose, or eyes. With just one blow, Ye Xuan could make them writhe in pain.

After six or seven minutes, the fight ended. Ye Xuan’s face was slightly swollen, and his back and waist were in intense pain. However, at his feet lay over a dozen people. Zheng Biao’s lackeys had all been taken down by Ye Xuan alone.

Su Mengli watched this scene in a daze for a few seconds before asking, “Is it over?”

Ye Xuan smiled at Su Mengli and replied, “It’s over. What’s wrong?”

Su Mengli felt embarrassed and said, “I wanted to help you earlier”

As she spoke, Su Mengli rushed towards Zheng Biao with her backpack and fiercely smashed it into his face.

Just as the pain in Zheng Biao’s groin subsided, he was hit again by this twenty-pound bag. He immediately felt dizzy and fell heavily to the ground.

Seeing this scene, Ye Xuan couldn’t help but laugh. So this is how she fights before she awakens? It’s quite amusing!

Ye Xuan laughed so hard that it caused pain in his mouth from his injuries. He couldn’t help but groan and cover his mouth.

Concerned, Su Mengli asked him worriedly, “Ye Xuan, are you okay?”

Ye Xuan waved his hand dismissively and said, “I’m fine. Just some superficial wounds.”

Approaching Zheng Biao, Ye Xuan stepped on his back and coldly said, “Zheng Biao, listen carefully. Su Mengli can be friends with whoever she wants. If you dare to act up again, even your grandmother won’t recognize you!”

At this moment, Zheng Biao still didn’t want to admit defeat. He shouted loudly, “Ye Xuan, just you wait! I’ll kill you sooner or later!”

Seeing that Zheng Biao was still stubborn, Ye Xuan kicked him in the face with his forty-two-yard foot. Ye Xuan’s sports shoes had hard soles, and this kick practically disfigured Zheng Biao’s entire face. His nose and mouth started bleeding.

Ye Xuan followed up with two more kicks to Zheng Biao’s face before saying, “Zheng Biao, what do you think you are? You think you’re some big shot just because you’ve been in a few fights? Here’s another chance for you: do you submit or not?”

Zheng Biao’s nose and mouth were in excruciating pain, his face was scraped raw, and his head was spinning. Although he often got into fights himself, he had never encountered someone as ruthless as Ye Xuan.

And Ye Xuan’s cold gaze seemed to be telling him that if he didn’t surrender now, his fate would be even more miserable!

After three seconds of silence, Zheng Biao finally uttered three words: “I give up!”

Seeing this, satisfaction appeared on Ye Xuan’s face. Then he turned to Su Mengli and said, “Mengli, your trouble has been resolved.”

“Ding! Genius Su Mengli’s favorability has increased to 45 points.”

Ye Xuan heard the system prompt and felt quite happy. Forty-five points! Just five points away from enhancing his talent again. This system really came in handy.

Of course, Ye Xuan understood that subsequent enhancements wouldn’t be as easy as the first one. Increasing favorability was similar to changes in relationships between people.

For example, going from strangers to ordinary friends wouldn’t be too difficult, but going from ordinary friends to close friends who would stand by each other through thick and thin, or even life-and-death brothers, would definitely be much more challenging.

It required not only the accumulation of time but also mutual efforts and genuine emotions during difficult times.

The second enhancement shouldn’t be too difficult, but for subsequent third or fourth enhancements, Ye Xuan would need to persistently work hard!
