"Alright, Xu Fan, I'll... I'll go with you..."
As Xu Fan dragged her by the hand and ran, Guan Shimeng, feeling both unwilling and shy, pulled her hand back from his.
Along the way, many people had seen them, and Guan Shimeng had never had such an experience before. Now, looking at Xu Fan beside her, her heart couldn't help but thump wildly.
"Hehe, little girl, then it's a deal."
Xu Fan didn't care much about that. Now that he heard Guan Shimeng had "taken the bait", he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Guan, Guan Shimeng, wait, wait a moment!"
As the two of them chatted and left Zijing Middle School, not too far away, suddenly, from behind, they heard a stuttering nervous voice.
"Hmm? Sounds like someone is calling you."
Looking back towards the voice, they saw a boy in Zijing Middle School uniform, clutching a backpack and running towards them nervously.
The boy wasn't tall, had a weak appearance, and wore glasses as thick as bottle caps. Upon reaching their side, he couldn't help but start panting heavily.
"Classmate, who are you?"
Although he was wearing Zijing Middle School's uniform, Guan Shimeng didn't recognize him and asked in confusion.
"I, I have something for you, and, and there are some words I want to tell you..."
Apparently rarely interacting with girls, the boy was extremely nervous standing in front of Zijing Middle School's belle.
Being looked at with such anticipation, Guan Shimeng felt even more awkward and subconsciously glanced at Xu Fan beside her.
Seeing her sheepish look, Xu Fan couldn't help smiling and teased, "What? Afraid I'll get jealous?"
Xu Fan didn't need to guess to know the intention of this guy.
As the belle of Zijing Middle School, even Chen Dongdong knew that Guan Shimeng was about to become an adult; her birthday was surely no secret to the students of Zijing Middle School.
This glasses boy was most likely one of Guan Shimeng's secret admirers, thinking that since his goddess's birthday was coming up, he seized the opportunity today to offer a gift, hoping to win her favor.
As for these lots of suitors, Xu Fan had nothing much to say; Guan Shimeng always had a gentle nature, and he guessed that even if she accepted the gift, she would still reject the boy politely.
"Friend, whatever you want to say, just say it."
Xu Fan then patted the other's shoulder, intending to give him a chance to confess.
"Thank you, classmate."
The other boy sighed in relief, hanging his head and fumbling in his backpack, then started to speak hesitantly.
"Actually, I..."
No, wait...
Looking at the boy's shy demeanor, Xu Fan couldn't help frowning.
He called me "classmate"?
By now, his name was well-known throughout the entire Zijing Middle School; if he was a student there, there was no reason for him not to recognize me.
Instantly, Xu Fan furrowed his brows, recalling the moment he had patted the boy's shoulder.
Though it was just a casual pat and not very forceful, given his frail appearance, his shoulders didn't even tremble.
This guy didn't seem as frail as he appeared...
"Be careful!"
With doubts in his mind, Xu Fan immediately activated the golden glow in his right pupil and peered into the boy's backpack.
In the backpack, there wasn't a single textbook related to high school curricula, just unrelated stuff!
And at that moment, what the adversary was about to pull out, was a bottle of sulfuric acid with the cap already removed!
Xu Fan shouted and, like lightning, pulled Guan Shimeng behind him. He immediately and firmly covered the bottle aimed at Guan Shimeng's face!
A burning sensation surged from his hand, and drops of sulfuric acid fell on the floor, instantly creating a cloud of dense smoke!
"You, you, you... "
The perpetrator clearly didn't expect someone to block the sulfuric acid thrown at Guan Shimeng in this way. Holding the sulfuric acid bottle, their smug smile instantly froze.
"Xu Fan!"
At that moment, Guan Shimeng also realized what had happened. Thinking about Xu Fan heroically shielding her from the acid, she couldn't help but let her tears fall. She rushed towards Xu Fan to check his hand.
"Don't come over yet."
Before Guan Shimeng could get close, Xu Fan pushed her away.
Just sulfuric acid, with his strength, naturally wouldn't harm him, but if Guan Shimeng came into contact with the acid on his hands, that would be a different story.
After stopping Guan Shimeng, Xu Fan used his Inner Strength to force the sulfuric acid off his hand, his face ashen, and walked towards the seemingly frail student.
"Friend, what are you holding in your hand?"
"Be...beverage..."
Having never encountered someone so fearless, the perpetrator felt a chill shoot up their spine as Xu Fan approached, causing their hands clenching the sulfuric acid bottle to tremble uncontrollably.
"Oh? A beverage?"
Xu Fan swiftly seized the sulfuric acid bottle from the adversary's hand, his lightning-like move frightening the other person, causing almost to spill the acid.
The perpetrator now staggered backwards, trembling.
"What, what do you want to do... "
"What do I want to do?"
Xu Fan gave the person a cold glance, grabbed their collar and brought the sulfuric acid bottle close to their mouth.
"Since it's just a beverage, why don't you drink it now!"
"No! Don't! I won't drink it, I won't drink it!"
Xu Fan's actions were far from a mere threat now; as the bottle's mouth pressed against his lips, feeling the burning corrosion from the residual acid, the bespectacled man began shaking his legs frantically!
You should know, this was concentrated sulfuric acid; drinking it would not result in immediate death, but from then on, speaking would be out of the question.
"Heh, you don't want to? It's just a bottle of beverage, why won't you drink it?"
The other party was so frightened that they had wet themselves. Xu Fan sneered, pulling the collar closer and coldly asked, "I'll ask you one more time, what exactly is in here?"
"Sulfuric, sulfuric acid, sulfuric, sulfuric acid..."
The perpetrator thought they were picking on just an ordinary schoolgirl. Little did they know, such a terrifying person was standing beside her. At this moment, grabbed like a helpless chicken by Xu Fan, the bespectacled man burst into tears.
"Heh, so it's sulfuric acid, huh?"
Xu Fan sneered, shaking the sulfuric acid bottle in his hand. If Xia Xiaodie hadn't happened to have him accompany Guan Shimeng today, this bottle of sulfuric acid would have completely disfigured her face!
After that, not to mention her dreams, whether she could live with the confidence, sporting a disfigured face, would also be an issue!
"Speak! Why would you do such a thing?"
This individual was full of suspicion. Guan Shimeng had a gentle personality and it was unlikely she had made any enemies at Zijing Middle School. Xu Fan figured this matter was probably not so simple...
