Do you really think you can get me with just a banana?

Guan Shanyu walked up to Yan Ruchen and stopped. Seeing him clutching his sleeves tightly for warmth, shivering pitifully, Guan Shanyu chose a less harsh tone to wake him up: "Yan Ruchen, wake up."

Yan Ruchen was awakened and looked at Guan Shanyu in a daze. Although he was dirty all over, the clarity in his eyes could not be concealed. He blinked with confusion and worry, which made Guan Shanyu feel guilty.

He really had never done anything like bullying.

Guan Shanyu coughed to clear his throat, trying to sound natural: "You slept soundly, but I want to sleep here today."

Yan Ruchen looked down at the wet corner and asked hesitantly, "Then where should I sleep?"

Guan Shanyu pointed to the bed and replied as a matter of course: "Sleep on the bed. Hurry up and get up. I want to sleep. I have to get up early tomorrow."

Yan Ruchen stared at Guan Shanyu in disbelief. Seeing that his expression was firm and he had no intention of joking, he asked, "Shanyu, it's a little wet here. Are you sure you want to sleep here?"

Guan Shanyu pretended to be deep in response, "You don't understand this. You're lying here now, with moonlight pouring in from the window. The stone slabs naturally condense water vapor, gathering the essence of heaven and earth. For us disciples who are about to participate in the inner sect selection, this is undoubtedly the lowest-cost, most efficient place for cultivation. You're going to learn from a master, but you don't understand this. Hey, get up quickly, I need to sleep."

As expected, the system did not issue any prompts. Guan Shanyu was secretly proud of himself. He cleverly made the matter of giving up the bed sound as if he was teasing the male protagonist, wondering how this artificial intelligence could possibly recognize his true intentions.

He watched the half-believing Yan Ruchen lie down before he slowly sat down. As soon as his butt touched the stone slab, he was ready to feel the cool touch, but suddenly felt something was wrong.

Guan Shanyu looked down and was shocked. Holy shit, there was actually a layer of cotton wool underneath the stone slab?

Although there were water droplets hanging on the surrounding walls, the place where Yan Ruchen slept was covered with a layer of black and gray cotton wool. Although it was a little damp, it was very warm.

Guan Shanyu looked at Yan Ruchen, who was lying in bed with his clothes on but still huddled on the edge of the bed with dignity, and thought to himself, this boy is quite smart. I didn't arrange this plot for him in the original novel, but it turns out that in the complete world, he would also think of some ways for himself.

That is, you will suffer.

Moreover, Yan Ruchen was smarter than he had imagined. He had thought that if he asked him to go to bed, he would be disliked by the other teenagers from the same village and then be taught a lesson. However, before dawn, Yan Ruchen quietly got up from the bed, pushed the door open and went out to continue looking for odd jobs, while he had to huddle in the corner with a sore back, and then deal with the questions from the group of teenagers when they woke up in the morning.

Although there was a layer of cotton wool on the ground, it was rainy these days, and Guan Shanyu went to "bully" Yan Ruchen every night to steal his corner.

After a few days of this, just when Guan Shanyu felt that he would get rheumatism if he continued sleeping like this, the day of the inner door selection finally arrived.

Even though they had walked here from the village with Yan Ruchen and shared his meals and lodgings for several days, deep down, they never truly considered him a partner. Early in the morning of the inner sect selection, the young men woke Guan Shanyu, who was still shivering in the corner, and thrust a heavy purse into his hand. They said loudly and bluntly, "Shanyu, although you've been weak and haven't helped me these days, we're going to the Immortal Sect today, and we'll inevitably need to make arrangements. Take this money."

Guan Shanyu stood up from the wall, holding up his half-stiffened buttocks, carrying the heavy money. He knew where the money came from without thinking. It was just taken from Yan Ruchen, who was standing at the door with a helpless look on his face.

It seems that he has not done any work these days. He just lies in the house and says that he feels pain here and there, and then he can have food and clothes. Not only does he have the care of his companions, but he also gets a lot of money in the end. It is even easier than receiving alms.

Damn, he suddenly understood why those people in TV dramas were so keen on bullying others and being the boss in small teams. The feeling of getting something for nothing was really too good.

If there is no real protagonist in this world, then Guan Shanyu feels that it would be a great thing for him to just keep playing badly and naturally receive everyone's love. After all, playing badly is his life goal!

But there is always a clear boundary between dreams and reality. The real and only male protagonist is standing aside, with a face full of grievances. He cautiously asks: "But what should I do if all the money is given to Shanyu?"

Yan Ruchen's hands were still covered with scars from doing odd jobs in the past few days. The scars of the old wounds had not yet healed, and new scars covered them. I don't know what kind of bullying he suffered outside. There was almost no intact piece of his clothes, just hanging on his body one by one. The corners of his eyes and mouth were also bruised. Guan Shanyu had seen Li Qi and others kicking him, pushing him, and mocking him with dirty words at every turn. They treated Yan Ruchen as a toy.

Yan Ruchen is only thirteen years old now, still a half-grown child. He works hard but others rob him of his money, but he can only stand aside with a wronged look on his face, with tears in his eyes but he still tries his best to put on a flattering smile, as if this will make them pity him a little and give him some money back.

Guan Shanyu couldn't hold on to the money at all. He couldn't stand to see this kind of bullying. He was a sentimental man since he was a child. Even if he saw a stray cat or dog that couldn't find its home, he would cry with it for a while. Now he was asked to steal other people's things, he really couldn't bear it, not to mention that the pitiful little handsome boy in front of him was a character he created himself.

How can a father rob his son of his money? Even a tiger won’t eat its own cubs.

Just as I was thinking about how to return the money to him calmly, the thought had just occurred to me when a frantic alarm bell suddenly rang in my mind. A panel suddenly flashed before my eyes, and the stiff voice sounded a reminder:

[Alert! Alert! You are engaging in thoughts and behaviors that are inconsistent with Guan Shanyu's character. If you do not stop immediately, this system will impose a level one penalty on the host. Please verbally attack Yan Ruchen and correct your character.]

Damn it! Even thinking about it is a sin! He hasn't done anything concrete yet, so they're not going to give him electric shock therapy again, are they?

In a state of extreme fear, Guan Shanyu immediately threw the purse at Yan Ruchen's feet and said coldly, "I don't want it. It's dirty."

Although Li Qi and the others were a little surprised, a look of admiration appeared on their faces.

The alarm finally stopped. Guan Shanyu looked at Yan Ruchen anxiously, only to see him carefully lower his head to pick up the patched purse. He then slowly stood up, his eyes filled with discomfort and surprise. Their eyes met for only a moment before Guan Shanyu immediately turned his head away, coughed, and added, "That purse is covered in mud. I'm a germaphobe."

Li Qi and the others recalled that Guan Shanyu used to flirt with even woodcutters and vegetable farmers, and couldn't help but whisper, "You actually have mysophobia, really, it's hard to tell."

The sentence was connected into several paragraphs before it was finished. Guan Shanyu naturally knew that they were imagining all the terrible and evil deeds that the current person had done in the past, which made him find it ridiculous.

No one despises the gay man with a terrible private life, but Yan Ruchen, a little weed who makes a living with his own hands, is like a rat crossing the street and everyone shouts and beats him. Is this fair?

Of course, this unreasonable plot was written by himself, and Guan Shanyu couldn't really say anything. Isn't this what the audience likes to see? A general must start from the ranks, and a prime minister must start from the prefectures. Without the baptism of the world, even if you become a Buddha, you can't convince the public. Who wants to see that?

Thinking of this, Guan Shanyu raised his finger and whispered, "Hey, system, how many times have I bullied Yan Ruchen now? How many more times do I need?"

A stiff voice sounded: [Host has effectively bullied 0 times, 100 times left, keep up the good work.]

Guan Shanyu: "Fuck you!"

Digression: Because Xu Jianqing and Guan Shanyu are two completely different people, it is quite difficult to play a person who has completely different values, personality, moral concepts, living habits, etc. from one's own. Therefore, it is easy for Xu Jianqing to subconsciously interpret Guan Shanyu according to his original personality, and he has never thought about integrating into him. He just treats these as a task to be completed, which of course makes it easy to be OOC.

Come on, Xiao Xu~
