Shift! The Side-Character Heroine-Chapter 766 - Crushed
Chapter 766: Crushed
“The prettiest girl in the class,” Xie Wanting finally made a fool of herself today. She stared at Luo Chen and Yuan Shawu fiercely, certain that she had just found her two newest nemeses.
The new Yuan Shawu had debuted with a bang. Perhaps, in the hearts of many boys, she was already the prettiest girl in their class.
Yuan Shawu scanned through the students in the class. With the ability to see through the development of the other world line, naturally, she would be able to see the future of these students. Of course, that was just a possibility out of many other possibilities. Her change might even trigger others and change their destinies. Guys often tried harder to improve themselves if they wanted to impress a girl.
Yuan Shawu, who used to be in that world line, was a side character from head to toe. There was no way that she would trigger any sort of change in others. However the troublemaking Lady Zhao was nowhere. She was charismatic, charming, and suave. She could easily capture the hearts of every boy in class, encouraging them to work harder.
Luo Chen, a main character from another parallel world finally felt the change in his heart. She was so nice, so kind, it would be no surprise if he would develop some feelings for her.
Many students thought that only Yuan Shawu’s external image had changed. However, she had more tricks up her sleeves. Her academic performance had once again shocked everyone. Whenever the teacher asked questions in class, Yuan Shawu would always answer it casually, as if she could do it in her sleep. The teachers found a newfound level of respect for this once-insignificant girl.
This added on to her already stacking charm. An ordinary, intelligent girl was one thing. A beautiful, intelligent girl? Wake up, please.
However, the real reason why Yuan Shawu could live peacefully was because Ye Fan had publicly stated that she was now under his protection. Whoever who dared touch Yuan Shawu would feel his wrath!
Xie Wanting had been completely at a loss of words, as she had intended to get back at her. However, the big bullies she knew did not dare do anything to Yuan Shawu. Which person who was right in the head would even think of offending Ye Fan?
Ye Fan’s announcement had led to rumors spreading around in the entire school. They were saying things like how the “Underworld Young Lord” had finally found a girl worth his time. She had both talent and beauty, Yuan Shawu!
This was obviously a cliche plotline. It made Ye Fan seem like he was the main character of a yob genre manga. As for Luo Chen, he was just a talented guy who had a growing reputation in school.
Luo Chen had set off on his plagiarizing journey. It gave him enough to feed himself and pay off his school fees. He even plagiarised certain literary works, just for the sake of showing off. He then participated in a famous writing competition and even got the First Prize! The Blue Water Star that he came from also held writing competitions of their own. The writing competition’s topic just so happened to be in the library of his brain. Therefore, everything went smooth sailing.
Luo Chen also started finding his spine. Yuan Shawu was also around to help him dress up, so obviously, he would look great. Anyway, he earned enough, so a few more additions to his wardrobe wouldn’t hurt.
One could only say that Luo Chen, who had been single in both his lives, now learned of the joys of having a close female friend. At least, he could attract a few females now.
Even so, what a predicament Luo Chen was in! He was at a loss as to what to do with Yuan Shawu, who he had feelings for. As he heard Ye Fan’s declaration of ownership over Yuan Shawu, he felt inexplicable anger in his heart.
This was because Luo Chen felt that he should be the closest guy to Yuan Shawu. Their relationship was above that of friends, but short of becoming lovers. He had bought a lot of presents for Yuan Shawu. She accepted some of them, but not all of them. This made it difficult for Luo Chen to discern how she felt about him…
Yuan Shawu felt that she had become the main character of the legendary girl channel [1] works. The characteristic triangle love relationship had already taken shape. However, there was a difference between Yuan Shawu and the typical girl channel works main character. Yuan Shawu wanted to experiment with the abilities of her mad scientist character card in this world, not be stuck in a love triangle.
Therefore, she did not act like one such protagonist. She actually took her long-handled umbrella to Ye Fan’s classroom, and in front of all the students, challenged Ye Fan to a duel. She wanted to have a duel with the legendary unbeatable fighter, Ye Fan!
Her behavior obviously shocked the students. This included Luo Chen, the plagiarist main character who had been paying attention to his only female friend in both his lifetimes.
Even though Luo Chen knew that he had the main character aura, he knew that he could not stand up to Ye Fan, the “Underworld Young Lord.” That guy was also a main character in his own right. Furthermore, Ye Fan ruled over the entire school. Luo Chen was dejected. He really did not know how to fight. Currently, he was just relying on his plagiarism to make a name for himself in the school.
Yuan Shawu challenging this highly capable Ye Fan to a duel was unfathomable. She was just a girl. Was she trying to seek death?
In reality, Luo Chen thought that Ye Fan was just interested in Yuan Shawu, as in that kind of interest in a guy towards a girl. However, Ye Fan was merely curious about this interesting lady. He wanted this. He wanted her to come to him.
Previously, Yuan Shawu had merely ignored the man. She thought that this guy was just some fool. Now, she had to protect her own reputation!
Many students had thought that it was just a lovers fight between Ye Fan and Yuan Shawu. However, they were dumbfounded when they discovered that both of them were really fighting. They were even fighting vigorously and seriously. For a time, they were wondering if they were no longer living in reality…
Luo Chen then discovered that Ye Fan was actually having trouble standing up against Yuan Shawu’s superhuman sword skills. His clothes were cut to ribbons by her ‘sword,’ but his body remained unscathed. This female friend of his was a true Jianghu master!
Ye Fan lost, and undisputably too, at that. He actually conceded defeat. If he had not surrendered, he might even end up completely naked…
