After stopping being a simp, the school heartthrob cried and begged to get back together.

Chapter Fifteen: Your father wants his illegitimate daughter but not you!

"You brat, get down here!" one of the men pointed at him. "Get down here, and I'll spare your life!"

Another man pulled out a knife from behind his back.

A cold glint flashed in Huo Yushen's eyes: "Just you guys?"

There was no fear in his eyes as he looked down at the two of them as if they were ants.

"You think you can look down on me? Let me tell you, there's no one in this area I'm afraid of!" The man looked very smug.

He didn't take a high school student seriously.

Huo Yushen remained expressionless, but his eyes were filled with malice.

"Don't move, police!"

The police appeared as soon as they finished speaking.

Huo Yushen narrowed his eyes.

They were startled and turned to run away.

Unexpectedly, he was immediately pinned to the ground by the police.

"Officer, we didn't do anything," the man pleaded.

"You didn't do anything, what were you doing with a knife?" The police didn't believe him at all: "Cutting a watermelon?"

The man didn't speak; he couldn't understand why the police were there.

"Let's go!" The policeman led the two men into the police car.

Huo Yushen jumped down from above.

Huo Fei stepped out from the side: "Young Master."

"Why are you following me?" Huo Yushen took off his glasses, his deep eyes turning cold.

"I'm here to protect you," Huo Fei explained.

"You're the one who called the police?" Huo Yushen sneered. "Didn't I tell you to mind your own business?"

"Young Master, the Master entrusted me with taking care of you, so I can't shirk responsibility if something happens to you." Huo Fei asked with concern, "Are you alright?"

"Mind your own business." Huo Yushen turned and left.

Huo Fei followed up: "Young Master, that brat from the Gu family bullied you, should I go find someone..."

"I've already told you, don't interfere in my affairs." Huo Yushen put his hands in his pockets, his demeanor turning sinister and cold.

"Young Master, do you have feelings for Miss Shen...?" Huo Fei was very curious.

Huo Yushen stopped in his tracks, his narrow eyes filled with a sinister glint: "Huo Fei, if you dare to touch her, don't blame me for being impolite."

"Young Master, how could I dare?" Huo Fei hurriedly said, "I just think this girl is quite nice. It's good that you care about her so much."

Huo Yushen's eyes were icy: "Watch your mouth, or I can take back everything you have now."

"Young Master, don't worry, I didn't mention a word about the Master." Huo Fei assured him, "Young Master, the car is over there."

"I'll take a walk by myself." He turned and walked away, leaving Huo Fei behind.

Huo Fei sighed, got back into his car, and followed while driving.

-

Before I knew it, two weeks had passed.

The monthly exam is coming.

Although there are exams every month, it's still a challenge for senior high school students.

Monthly exams are not just tests, but also a yardstick to check whether you have slacked off during the month.

Or perhaps, it's a summary of whether a month of hard work was all for naught, or whether there was genuine progress.

Regardless, everyone is preparing for the exam with all their might.

Because of my exam results last month, I was assigned to the last exam room.

Huo Yubai's seat was behind mine.

He hadn't come for two weeks, but he showed up today.

I wonder if he's been studying properly lately.

I was just about to speak when the teacher came in.

It wasn't until I received the exam paper that I realized my moment to prove myself had arrived.

The next two and a half days were spent taking exams.

After the exam, there was a two-day holiday.

The exam results won't be available until Monday.

I was very confident in myself and in a good mood for this exam.

However, Huo Yubai has been avoiding me for the past two and a half days, and I don't know what I did to him.

Since the other person didn't want to talk to me, I didn't try to engage with them.

After the exam, we went back to the classroom to tidy up.

Zhao Baixue walked up to me and said, "Shen Yan, it's my birthday this weekend. I hope you can come. This is an invitation. Mu Xi is giving this to you."

Everyone else in the class received it too.

"Bai Xue, this is the first time I've received an invitation. It's so beautiful and even smells nice."

"Yeah, the color is so pretty, it must be expensive."

"This little bit of money is nothing. Please don't bring any gifts. I don't need anything. Just come and see me." Zhao Baixue smiled.

"Bai Xue, you are so kind and beautiful, but how can we not give you a gift?"

"That's right, we haven't been shameless enough to eat and drink for free yet."

Zhao Baixue smiled and said, "We're all classmates, there's no such thing as eating and drinking for free. I'll go to the next class to deliver the invitations."

she left.

Mu Xi whispered, "They really know how to flatter. They treat an invitation like it's a precious banknote."

I laughed and said, "After all, printing invitations costs money too."

"Shen Yan, look how pale you are. I heard your parents got divorced and you and your mother were kicked out of the house. You're not even a rich person anymore."

"You're no match for Zhao Baixue in anything right now, yet you still want to be with Gu Heng? You're shameless!"

“Even if I’m not rich anymore, I’m still richer than you.” I sneered. “You’re belittling me, but the money in my pocket won’t fly into yours. Of course, with you flattering me like this, Zhao Baixue’s family’s money will definitely not go into your pockets either.”

“You!” they glared at me.

I said casually, "You guys should think about how to flatter Zhao Baixue to her satisfaction, lest you embarrass yourselves on the day and have no way to clean up the mess."

"Shen Yan, what's so amazing about you! Your father would rather have his illegitimate daughter than you!"

"You think illegitimate daughters are good? How come you're an illegitimate daughter?" I mocked. "If you think so much about being an illegitimate daughter, I'm afraid you don't even have the right to say that."

"Shen Yan, you're being rude! We'll tell the teacher on you!"

"Don't go too far!" Mu Xi said angrily, "You were the ones who provoked us first."

"What are you arguing about?" Gu Heng walked over.

He was a top student and held great authority among his classmates.

The group dispersed.

“Shen Yan, after school, I…” Gu Heng began slowly.

"Gu Heng!" Zhao Baixue walked over with a smile: "It's my birthday this weekend, I hope you can come."

Gu Heng looked at the invitation Zhao Baixue handed him and reached out to take it.

Zhao Baixue was very happy. She looked at me and said, "Shen Yan, I just went to Class 3 to deliver an invitation to Huo Yubai, but he wasn't there. You two have been getting quite close lately, could you give it to him for me?"

After she finished speaking, she placed the invitation on my desk.

My gaze darkened.

Gu Heng's expression also darkened.

Zhao Baixue's words were loaded with meaning, but I couldn't understand them.

“Since it’s your birthday party and you want to invite others, you should be more sincere. You can personally deliver the invitation to their home.” I returned the invitation.

Zhao Baixue said awkwardly, "It's not that I'm not sincere, it's that I haven't met him."

"Then you'd better show some sincerity. If you want to invite him, go find him yourself." I slung my backpack over my shoulder and left.

"Yan Yan, wait for me!" Mu Xi caught up.
