Chapter 51

Wu Xiaofang was so angry that his toes itched.

The noble young man called him trash.

But he didn't dare to retort in anger.

Because he had already recognized that this noble young man was Li Tao, the third-ranked genius on the personal overall ranking list of the National Royal Junior College.

"Li Tao, speak more politely. I am your senior... Hmm, are you interfering in my private affairs again?"

When Tao Wancheng saw this noble young man Li Tao, his face instantly showed hostility and enmity.

Li Tao said calmly, "What do you mean by your private affairs? I only see you bullying the weak, tarnishing the reputation of our Royal College."

As he spoke, he bowed to Lin Beichen and said, "I am Li Tao from the Royal Junior College. I apologize for Tao Wancheng's rudeness. I heard that Lin Beichen scored full marks in all three subjects in this major exam, and I am very impressed, so I came to meet you."

Lin Beichen patted Lin San Shi, signaling him not to be overly nervous, and assured him that he was fine.

He sheathed his sword, took a step forward, and said calmly, "You speak much better than this fool Tao, but I don't buy into this show of respect. We are just teenagers, why act like cunning old foxes? It's uncomfortable, isn't it?"

The onlookers were all taken aback.

Without the teacher's protection, you just suffered a big loss, didn't you?

This senior Li Tao clearly came to help you out.

But you are so ungrateful.

You are really beyond help.

Who knew that the mocked Li Tao just chuckled and didn't get angry.

"Lin Beichen, you are joking. Perhaps it's because I often think of myself as an adult, so I come off as a bit old-fashioned. But I really want to be your friend, not just putting on an act, and certainly not to recruit you into my team."

Lin Beichen said calmly, "Is that so? But I'm sorry, I didn't come here to make friends."

"Ha ha ha ha, did you hear that? Li Tao, this wastrel doesn't appreciate your kindness at all, ha ha ha, it's really hilarious. I never thought you, a hypocrite, would also have a moment of offering your warm face to a cold ass. How does it feel to be rejected?"

Tao Wancheng laughed loudly, seizing the opportunity to mercilessly mock his old rival.

Li Tao remained calm and said, "Sword geniuses often think highly of themselves and have a temper."

It must be said that this noble young man had a decent demeanor.

But Lin Beichen still held his sword in front of his chest, with a look that kept people at a distance.

"What a pity, I wanted to have a good exchange with Lin Beichen," Li Tao smiled and said, "Actually, before the major exam, a classmate from your Third College, Mu Xinyue, told me a lot about your deeds, which I found very intriguing and curious."

Before he finished speaking,

A peerless female swordsman slowly walked out from the crowd, with a smile on her face, and stood beside Li Tao.

Mu Xinyue.

"Lin Beichen, Li Senior's admiration for you is genuine," Mu Xinyue smiled and said, "I know deep down you have your own childish pride, but actually, acknowledging Li Senior's superiority and working with him is not something to be ashamed of."

Another绿茶 (green tea) b*tch.

She just won't go away.

What kind of freaks does the Third College cultivate?

Lin Beichen was really speechless, genuinely at a loss for words.

Mu Xinyue, seeing Lin Beichen's speechless expression, felt quite satisfied.

She felt she had finally turned the tables.

So what if you, Lin Beichen, are the top student in the school?

Compared to a true genius like Li Tao, what are you?

"Sometimes, one must recognize oneself and not be overly arrogant," Mu Xinyue continued to mock, "Being with excellent people can be beneficial. Lin Beichen, why do you have to reject Li Senior's good intentions out of jealousy?"

Lin Beichen opened his mouth, about to retort.

At this moment, an unexpected change occurred.

"Little b*tch, what are you to speak about my boyfriend like that?"

A cold, almost unearthly voice came from behind Lin Beichen.

A hand as white as jade reached out from behind, gently holding Lin Beichen's arm.

Lin Beichen was taken aback.

He instinctively tried to pull away.

Ouch.

Too tight.

He couldn't pull free.

It felt like his arm was clamped in steel.

"Who the f*ck is this..."

He turned to curse.

Then—

"Ah, my eyes... who threw the flashbang?"

Lin Beichen covered his eyes with his other hand, exclaiming dramatically.

Too bright.

The girl who suddenly appeared beside him, holding his arm, was too bright.

Beautiful beyond reality.

Beautiful like a fairy.

So white.

So beautiful.

She was like the sun, radiating blinding light.

Blinding others' eyes.

When Lin Beichen turned his head, he felt as if he had been hit in the face with ten flashbangs in a game of CS:GO, his eyes filled with white, and his mind went blank.

Lin Beichen felt a lack of words for the first time.

He couldn't find the right words to describe the girl's beauty.

To put it simply.

She was countless times more beautiful than Mu Xinyue.

The first-place beauty on the Third College's beauty list, in front of this girl, was like a chicken standing next to a phoenix, the difference was immeasurable.

"Shut up."

The girl, seeing Lin Beichen's exaggerated actions, had a black line on her forehead and scolded him in a low voice, "It's not the first time. Why are you making such a fuss? Aren't you embarrassed?"

Lin Beichen was immediately stunned.

Not the first time?

Then...

How many times?

"You are..."

He wanted to ask what was going on.

But the girl directly looked at Mu Xinyue and said, "Are you Mu Xinyue from the Third College? A waste of space, ranked outside the top fifty, what are you to speak so condescendingly in front of my boyfriend? Huh?"

The surroundings fell silent.

The atmosphere suddenly turned tense.

Mu Xinyue didn't notice.

How had she ever suffered such an insult?

Especially this girl, with her unparalleled beauty and overwhelming presence, made her, who always prided herself on her beauty, feel a sudden natural enmity. She coldly laughed without thinking, "Ranked outside the top fifty is a waste? Ha ha, what are you? Lin Beichen, this scoundrel, is your boyfriend? Ha ha, it seems you are not much of a..."

Before she finished speaking,

Tao Wancheng and Li Tao, the two geniuses, finally recovered from their shock.

The two geniuses, like mice seeing a cat, immediately bowed and said, "Greetings, Senior Ling."

The other students around them, especially those from the National Royal Junior College, who had previously been acting superior, now woke up as if from a dream, and bowed one by one, respectfully saying, "Greetings, Senior Ling."

Mu Xinyue's unfinished words got stuck in her throat.

Do you think there was a story between Ling and Lin Beichen?
