Chapter 6 Qu Qīngzhī, Don’t Bully Others Too Much

As soon as the final bell of the morning rang, the classroom immediately became lively, with everyone pairing up and heading to the cafeteria for lunch.

Qu Qīngzhī ran the fastest and quickly joined the queue at the first-floor cafeteria.

She packed two boxed meals – one with shredded pork in garlic sauce over rice and the other with braised lion’s head meatballs over rice.

She moved back and forth quickly, carrying the boxed meals back to the classroom.

The classroom was empty, with only Xie Muhuan .still sitting at his desk, focusing on his exercises.

The sunlight outside shone on his pale yet delicate face, like golden outlines, creating a portrait resembling a young comic character, hazy and beautiful.

Qu Qīngzhī thought to herself that when he went to the restroom, she would secretly place the boxed meal on his desk.

She could use her left hand to write a note, pretending to be a girl from another class who had a crush on him.

Qu Qīngzhī’s plan was in full swing when suddenly the system’s prompt sounded –

【Triggering Plot!】

【Pour the boxed meal on Xie Muhuan’s desk, humiliating him: “Sitting alone? Can’t afford to eat? Here’s a treat for you.”】

Qu Qīngzhī: “…”

Darn system!

She was just carrying a boxed meal, how did it trigger a plot?

【Don’t think the system is unaware of you cursing it in your mind.】 The system’s tone was a bit coquettish, 【Using the act of pouring food to humiliate Xie Muhuanis a pre-set rule in the plot, you just triggered it early.】

Qu Qīngzhī didn’t want to engage with it.

But as soon as she passively resisted, her heart felt a slight surge of pain like an electric shock.

This was a warning that she couldn’t go against the plot and character settings.

“Fine, I’ll go along with the plot.” Qu Qīngzhī muttered in her mind with annoyance.

She walked towards Xie Muhuan with the boxed meal in hand.

Her figure blocked some of the sunlight, causing Xie Muhuanto look up from his papers, his dark eyes cold and indifferent.

“Have you eaten?” Qu Qīngzhī asked with a smile.

Xie Muhuan looked at her coldly, already seeing through her malicious intent.

“Sitting alone? Can’t afford to eat?” Qu Qīngzhī’s smile turned mocking, “I’ll treat you to a meal.”

She took out a boxed meal and slowly poured it onto his desk, savage and malicious.

With a bang, Xie Muhuan pushed his chair back and stood up, a hint of hostility in his eyes.

“Qu Qīngzhī, don’t bully others too much.” His voice was slightly hoarse, with a hint of restrained anger.

“I’m treating you to a meal, how can that be considered bullying you?” Qu Qīngzhī pointed to the messy shredded pork in garlic sauce on his desk, “Eat with your hands, no need to be polite.”

Xie Muhuan clenched his teeth, his jawline forming a beautiful and sharp curve.

The intensity of his hatred was almost overflowing in his eyes.

But in the end, he held back.

With a fierce turn, he walked out of the classroom.

Qu Qīngzhī watched his back, sighed, and quickly followed suit.

She had a plan B!

Qu Qīngzhī ran to the cafeteria on the first floor, looked around, and found an acquaintance from the original host’s memories.

She walked over and called out, “Hey, Sū Xīngyě.”

Sū Xīngyě, who was eating, paused with his chopsticks, slowly raised his head, and indifferently asked, “What’s up?”

“I need to talk to you, come out for a moment.” Qu Qīngzhī said in the dominant tone of the original host.

Sū Xīngyě completely ignored her, showing disdain, and said nothing, keeping his head down.

He resumed eating.

Qu Qīngzhī snorted softly, bent down, and lowered her voice, “If you don’t come out, I’ll expose your secret in public.”

Sū Xīngyě paused his eating for a few seconds, then with a bang, he slammed his chopsticks on the table and strode out of the cafeteria.

Qu Qīngzhī followed him out.

Reaching a secluded spot, Sū Xīngyě impatiently stepped on the flowerbed, “You’ve been threatening me with this all the time, what the hell do you want from me?”

Qu Qīngzhī smiled, her lips slightly parted.

Actually, this was something from the original host’s memory.

The Sū family and the Qu family were old friends, and the original host and Sū Xīngyě had known each other since childhood.

Sū’s father had a deeply loved first love who had passed away from illness, leaving behind a daughter who was all alone.

Although this daughter was not Sū’s father’s biological child, he loved her more than his own son, adopted her, and carefully nurtured and cherished her.

Sū Xīngyě was two years younger than this “sister” who had no blood relation, and somehow he fell in love with her.

The original host accidentally discovered this secret and used it to threaten Sū Xīngyě, making him run errands, buy snacks, and brag to classmates.

“Go buy me a meal and give it to Xie Mùhán. Tell him you shouldn’t have always been against him, you’ve figured things out now, and it was your immaturity back then.” Qu Qīngzhī said.

“You want me to apologize to Xie Mùhán?” Sū Xīngyě raised his eyebrows in disbelief, “Qu Qīngzhī, have you lost your mind? Why should I apologize to him?”

“Because…”

Because you’re also a cannon fodder in this book world!

In the future, Xie Muhuan will rise, but you’ll still be against him, and you’ll be dealt with by him in the end.

Qu Qīngzhī muttered in her heart, and continued, “I have my own plans, don’t worry about it. As long as you deliver the meal to him until graduation, I’ll never bring up the fact that you like your sister…”

Sū Xīngyě blushed with anger at the mention of this, “Shut up!”

Qu Qīngzhī shrugged.

He’s a rebellious school bully, and I don’t know why he’s so easily embarrassed and his ears turn red.

“Fine, I’ll help you deliver the meal. You better keep your word, or I’ll make you pay!” Sū Xīngyě raised his fist and swung it in front of her, threateningly.

Qu Qīngzhī smiled sweetly.

Sū Xīngyě snorted coldly and turned to leave.

Qu Qīngzhī returned to the classroom, opened the remaining box of braised lion’s head meatballs over rice, and slowly ate it.

As she ate, she took out her phone and transferred 20,000 yuan to Sū Xīngyě.

Sū Xīngyě sent back a “hetui” (spit) emoji: 【Do I lack this kind of money?】

Qu Qīngzhī wasn’t bothered by the fact that he didn’t accept the payment.

As long as she could buy two months’ worth of boxed meals, she could reconcile with the future black-hearted antagonist, how worthwhile!

…

After finishing her boxed meal, Qu Qīngzhī hid outside the classroom and peeked through the back door.

Sū Xīngyě held a lunchbox and placed it on Xie Mùhán’s desk, which had already been wiped clean, reluctantly saying, “Hey, Xie Mùhán, let’s forget about all the past grievances. Eat this meal for me.”

After finishing his words, Sū Xīngyě turned and left, as if he would die of shame if he said another word.

Qu Qīngzhī leaned against the door frame and continued watching.

Xie Muhuan must have been hungry and his stomach was cramping, he pressed hard on his abdomen, and after a long while, he couldn’t resist the temptation of food and opened the lid of the lunchbox, slowly taking a few bites.

The corners of Qu Qīngzhī’s lips curved silently, her bright eyes shining.
