"Is Cousin using those pick-up techniques right now? Damn, that's too smooth! This is the realm of subtly influencing and directly poaching someone's girlfriend!" The handsome young man thought to himself as he watched the two girls sitting across from him.

It turned out that after the plain-looking man with glasses saved the delicate and beautiful girl, Wang Da Yun, from the threat of the smoking thug, the delicate and beautiful girl, Wang Da Yun, had pulled her best friend and an unlucky suitor to sit with them. The two girls and the old man with a little girl sat in a row. The two girls chatted with the old man while teasing the little girl, while the unlucky suitor, Wang Meng, sat with a dark face next to the uncle and nephew.

"This classmate, I'm Wang Da Yun, and this is my good friend Li Wan Ying... and that is our classmate, Wang Meng." The delicate and beautiful girl introduced herself and extended her hand to shake hands with her savior. Her straightforward act of distancing herself from Wang Meng might have made him bleed internally.

Seeing Li Wan Ying shyly extend her hand with Wang Da Yun, the plain-looking man smiled calmly and introduced himself: "My surname is Jia, like the character for 'false.' My given name is Hong Jian. This is my cousin, Jia Jing Xing, like the character for 'scenery' and 'line.' Although we are the same age, he is a junior, so I have always bullied him as his uncle..."

While shaking hands with the two distinctive girls, Jia Hong Jian even introduced his nephew. At the end, he even extended his hand to shake hands with the dark-faced third wheel, Wang Meng.

When Jia Jing Xing saw his uncle's move, he was so delighted that he almost clapped his hands in joy! He felt that his uncle was so devious that it was admirable. Now, should Wang Meng shake hands with him or not?

If he shook hands, it would feel like swallowing a big fly, as it would mean openly agreeing to Jia Hong Jian joining their circle. Since Wang Meng was pursuing Wang Da Yun, would he be happy to see another man who had just helped her join their circle?

If he didn't shake hands, it would seem too petty, cold-shouldering the savior of the girl he liked. That would make him seem too jealous, wouldn't it? If he was already so jealous before winning her heart, how would he be once he did?

Considering Wang Meng's thoughts, Jia Jing Xing slightly turned his head to look at him and saw that the guy was really struggling, his forehead veins popping.

"Ha, I've learned another trick!" Jia Jing Xing thought to himself, feeling secretly pleased. But then he suddenly remembered a persuasion technique his uncle had taught him a few days ago.

In that technique, one should start by giving the other person face, standing in their shoes, and providing ample reasons. Then, one should subtly suggest their own idea, and the other person would easily lower their guard and happily follow the suggestion...

Thinking about this, Jia Jing Xing suddenly realized what mistake he had made when he went to confront the smoking thug. No wonder his uncle later said he was naive and had messed things up.

At this moment, Jia Jing Xing's admiration for his uncle was higher than the Oriental Pearl Tower under construction. Since he could remember, he had always followed his uncle, who was only a day older, in all sorts of mischief, from stealing chickens and causing trouble to knocking on widows' doors at midnight and scaring passersby at graveyards.

In his memory, his uncle, Jia Hong Jian, had always been the epitome of charm. However, in the past few days, his uncle's charm seemed to have increased exponentially, almost breaking through the sky.

Jia Hong Jian, however, was unaware of his nephew's inner turmoil and was currently shaking hands with Wang Meng, whose forehead veins were popping.

Just as they finished shaking hands, Jia Hong Jian suddenly heard a little girl's heartfelt plea: "Uncle, uncle, I want to, I want to, shake hands with me too!"

Hearing the little girl's request, everyone except Wang Meng laughed. The old man corrected the confused little girl: "Good girl, this is a big brother, not an uncle."

"It's fine, it's fine. Calling him uncle is good, just call him uncle." Jia Hong Jian surprisingly chose the term that no same-age boy would want to hear.

Hearing this, everyone was momentarily stunned, and their gazes turned curious, especially Li Wan Ying. She squinted her eyes, her long lashes forming crescent moons, and scanned Jia Hong Jian's face with intense curiosity.

Seeing everyone's curiosity drawn to his uncle, Jia Jing Xing was struggling hard to suppress his laughter. He remembered what his uncle had said to the 5-year-old girl next door yesterday: "Come, little sister, be good. Uncle will take you to see the goldfish, okay? After seeing the goldfish, when you grow up, you should marry Uncle as his bride. Your father and mother made this promise long ago..."

Such a charming uncle, would he mind being called uncle by a little girl? He probably couldn't wait for it. If it weren't for the strangers around, his uncle would have already used candy to make the little girl promise to marry him.

"Jia classmate, you must be in school, right? Which school are you from?" Surprisingly, it was the dark-faced third wheel, Wang Meng, who asked this. As he asked, he tried to maintain a seemingly kind expression, but there was a hidden intention behind his question.

"To be honest, I'm quite ashamed. Although I like reading, my grades are not good. I just took the high school entrance exam, and my scores were very poor. In the end, I had to enter Shanghai Experimental School through connections." Jia Hong Jian's expression was a mix of humility and honesty, as if he were a very sincere and pure person, like a gentleman who has nothing to hide, even if it's a deep scar.

His somewhat melancholic expression easily triggered the protective instincts of the women present. However, before they could protect him, they heard Wang Meng's smug response.

"Experimental School? I haven't heard much about it. But then again, with average grades, you can't get into a vocational school, so you can only go to a regular high school and try your luck. But there's still a chance to get into university. Da Yun and Wan Ying are at City No. 3 Girls' High School, and I'm at Yan'an High School. Maybe we'll end up at the same university someday..."

Hearing this, Wang Da Yun and Li Wan Ying blushed. They couldn't understand why the seemingly gentlemanly Wang Meng, who was a potential school heartthrob, would say such sarcastic things. Especially Wang Da Yun, when she saw Jia Jing Xing's surprised gaze, she felt as if he was questioning her: "Is this the man you like? He's so low-class!"

She was so angry that her face turned red. She wondered how she had been blinded by Wang Meng's false appearance. Even if Jia Hong Jian's grades were not good, did Wang Meng have to be so sarcastic? Yes, the college entrance exam was like a thousand people crossing a narrow bridge, and vocational schools offered job placements and cadre status, with three more years of work experience. So, the top students went to vocational schools, and the best of the best went to key high schools to aim for university. But did he have to be so sarcastic to her savior?

"Ha... a frog at the bottom of a well!" Before Wang Da Yun could burst out, Jia Jing Xing suddenly sneered. He had gone to check out the new school with his uncle today, looking at the hardware and the fence around the campus. Although the Experimental School didn't have the title of a key high school and was not well-known to the public, it was because the school's high school department had never admitted students from outside in the past decade. He even remembered seeing four characters carved below the school name on a large stone at the school gate: "Jiang," "Ze," "Min," "Ti"!

Moreover, what they didn't know was why his uncle didn't go to a key high school. It was because the Experimental School had a higher college admission rate than those key high schools! And his uncle had to punish their junior high school homeroom teacher. During the high school entrance exam, his uncle deliberately left all the answers blank, pulling down the class average and costing the teacher all his bonuses, making him a laughingstock in the district's education system...

"Jing Xing?" Jia Hong Jian interrupted his nephew before he could reveal the true situation of their new school. He gave his nephew a stern look, thinking that they couldn't just casually tell others about their alma mater's greatness. He had told him many times to be low-key in a new environment and to pretend to be a pig eating a tiger. Even when pursuing a girl, one should be both charming and innocent, like Guo Jing, who rode a unique and valuable horse and carried a lot of gold, but still pretended to be naive and innocent, not realizing that Huang Rong was a girl, and thus won her over.

This kid, why couldn't he learn? What was there to boast about that he had to reveal it right away? Didn't he know to keep it hidden until the enemy and the girl had misunderstood, and then reveal the truth? This would both slap the enemy's face and shock the girl, overturning her previous impression of him, making it easier to win her over. He was too naive and too simple!

While Jia Hong Jian was inwardly criticizing his nephew, Wang Da Yun couldn't help but speak up in his defense. "Wang Meng, what you said is not right. Just because Jia Hong Jian's grades are not excellent, so what? Everyone has their strengths. He might be very talented in other areas. Besides, all work is equal, and whatever job one does, it contributes to the four modernizations and socialist construction."

As she said this, Wang Da Yun herself felt a bit insincere. She didn't really believe in the equality of all work, but in this era, what else could a schoolgirl say in her defense?

"Alright, alright, let's not talk about this. Don't let me, an outsider, affect your friendship." The culprit, Jia Hong Jian, put on a worried, anxious, innocent, and sincere act.

As a reincarnated person, he loved meeting the real boyfriend of the high-class girl he was pursuing. By constantly being nice and thinking about the girl, he could constantly earn points in her heart. The more the boyfriend reacted, the more the girl would dislike him.

He loved to use a single meal to decisively defeat the girl's real boyfriend in such face-to-face situations. The current scene was exactly what he liked, even though the girl hadn't yet stirred his primal desires...
