Then, Han Ling glanced at Zhan Fei again. This guy, who had been so impressive when he spoke earlier, was now a mystery. Was it just a lucky guess, or had he really mastered it?
Was he really a bad student who was terrible at everything, or was he just being low-key as he claimed?
It had to be said that every girl had a strong sense of curiosity. Zhan Fei's unusual behavior today, different from his usual self, sparked a bit of curiosity in Han Ling's heart. She didn't intend to suppress this curiosity and asked, "Rogue, can you solve this problem?"
Hearing this nickname, Zhan Fei couldn't help but touch his nose. But thinking about how he had touched her hand for the mission, even though he got a punch, he had now leveled up and his intelligence had increased significantly. In the end, he still owed her something, so Zhan Fei directly said, "Of course I can. Look here..."
As Zhan Fei spoke, he leaned in and began to explain seriously. Even Zhan Fei himself didn't realize that the nervousness and awkwardness he had felt in front of Han Ling due to the hand-touching incident had completely disappeared. Instead, he felt relaxed and natural. Once you overcome your fear and take the first step, success isn't far away.
When Zhan Fei leaned in to explain, Han Ling was initially worried that he might try to sneak an attack again. However, after a while, seeing no out-of-line behavior from Zhan Fei, she sighed in relief and began to listen to his explanation attentively.
As for Zhou Tai and Guo Xin, who were sitting next to Zhan Fei, they looked at Zhan Fei and Han Ling in disbelief. The two were sitting so close, their heads almost touching, looking like a couple. When did the third one become so capable? How did he manage to hook up with our class beauty?
Naturally, they wouldn't ruin Zhan Fei's good fortune at this moment. They just glanced at him and continued with their own work. However, in a corner of Zhan Fei's class, a pair of eyes glared angrily at Zhan Fei, who was teaching Han Ling. His hands were tightly clenched into fists, as if he wanted to tear someone apart.
Han Ling, with her high comprehension, understood the problem completely after Zhan Fei spent ten minutes explaining it in detail.
Han Ling could also sense that Zhan Fei had a thorough grasp of the concept. However, this made her a bit dissatisfied. Was she really that stupid? Despite studying diligently every day, she couldn't match this guy who slept and daydreamed in class?
With this thought, Han Ling decided that the next time she had a difficult problem, she would definitely find this guy and challenge him. She had to prove that her hard work was worth it!
After explaining the problem, Zhan Fei realized how close he was to the class beauty. A faint fragrance enveloped him, and he could see Han Ling's slender waist, her small but firm breasts, and her perfect, delicate face with her clean, handsome medium-length hair.
Everything was so beautiful and desirable, making Zhan Fei feel an urge to hold her in his arms. Of course, it was just a fleeting impulse. He quickly suppressed it, returned to his seat, and continued to daydream and sleep.
Han Ling didn't say anything in thanks. Among classmates, such things weren't necessary. Besides, Zhan Fei still had the label of a rogue in her mind, so she naturally wouldn't thank him.
After another twenty minutes, the class with the black-faced teacher was over. Although there was still one more class, it was a foreign language class, and the teacher never took attendance. So, more than half of the students went straight back to their dorms, while only a few went to the foreign language class.
This time, Zhan Fei did something different. Instead of going straight to the dorm, he headed to the school's track. He wanted to experience his improved physical attributes and then study his game character to see if he could find other ways to profit.
It was summer, and the weather was hot at three or four in the afternoon. The track was not very crowded, with only a few couples sitting under the trees, chatting and cuddling. Zhan Fei ignored these couples and started running at full speed on the track, feeling his blood boil.
This feeling was exhilarating, and Zhan Fei's speed was indeed much faster than before. He used to run 100 meters in 15-16 seconds, but now he could do it in 13-14 seconds. His strength and stamina had also increased, giving him a sense of unprecedented health.
After two years of being a shut-in at university, his declining physical fitness had instantly returned to its peak during high school. He ran three laps, which was 1200 meters, before stopping. He then stretched his legs and did some chest-expanding exercises, enjoying the feeling of health.
After stretching for ten minutes, Zhan Fei sat down under a tree where no couples were sitting. He closed his eyes, and three seconds later, the attribute panel appeared again. Zhan Fei clicked on the "Shop" button in the upper right corner, and a list of items appeared.
After a quick scan, he selected a coal mine. A coal mine was a production material required for Level 1 Mining, with a long production cycle and high value, worth 500 gold coins. Zhan Fei only had 10 gold coins in his inventory, so he wanted to see what would happen if he didn't have enough gold coins. Could he convert his cash into gold coins?
He clicked on "Buy," and a message appeared: "Insufficient gold coins, please recharge!"
The word "recharge" was in red, indicating it was possible. Zhan Fei clicked on "recharge," and another message appeared: "Recharge amount: 186 gold coins. Please select the recharge amount."
Seeing the 186 gold coins, Zhan Fei's eyes flashed with joy. He could indeed recharge. However, unlike in the game where one yuan equaled 100 gold coins, now one yuan equaled one gold coin. But this was enough.
The初级治疗水 (初级 healing water) cost only 10 yuan in materials, but selling it would cost more than 10 yuan, let alone refining it into pills. Zhan Fei directly recharged 100 gold coins and then started browsing other items.
