Chapter 8: Chapter 8: I’m Different!

“Sigh, let’s just order it.”

Ye Mingqiu sighed and clicked to order on the communication device, the rest would be delivered home.

The three supplements cost a total of 180,000, even after getting a double discount through the student channel and the support system welfare. If purchased by a regular person, these three supplements would cost over 400,000, the student and support system subsidies are really generous.

This was also the core reason he chose the support system when he entered high school; more subsidies, better welfare, and plenty of girls in the class. Discounting the low pass rate for the spirit realm, the support system was actually quite nice.

Speaking of subsidies…

Ye Mingqiu couldn’t help but think of Tang Ruobing…

Aside from pretending to be a junior, she actually gave him a pretty good feeling; chatting felt very comfortable, and playing games together was very enjoyable. He couldn’t help but spend the money he had.

Ye Mingqiu had no family, few friends, and not much important, the presence of Broken Ice Sugar added a splash of color to his dull life, the contrast between the nobility and cuteness of the magic system made him sink in.

The pass rate for the spirit realm trial in the support system was low, which was well-known. Before awakening his talent, Ye Mingqiu was breaking jars and letting them fall, thinking that even if he failed the spirit realm trial, there would be a substantial compensation, enough for him to live it up for a long time.

He thought he would just live as an ordinary person, but unexpectedly he awakened a talent suitable for support system clearance, and the talent panel even had a point-adding function.

Life is really amazing, isn’t it?

And now, Tang Ruobing had directly given him 200,000 as a playing fee, although he knew this money meant nothing to her, he still felt uneasy.

I must pay it back in the future!

….

The next day, Class 9, Third Year

Ye Mingqiu didn’t look very well since the Rejuvenation X6 arrived yesterday, and he took it before bed to enhance his mental power without thinking much.

The enhancement effect was very good, his mental attribute increased by 0.5, but the process of enhancement was too uncomfortable, feeling like being pressed by a ghost, an unpleasant sensation of being awake but having no response from the body, unable to move.

Because of this, Ye Mingqiu’s mental state was poor this morning, his complexion was pale, and alarmingly, he needed to use Rejuvenation X6 every night for seven days to maximize the effect. Interruption was possible, but the attribute enhancement effect would be greatly reduced, which he couldn’t accept.

Sigh, bear with it.

“Hiss…”

Ye Mingqiu gritted his teeth; the soreness and numbness in his arm made him gasp. This was from the Sith Dragon injection he took this morning to enhance agility attribute.

He initially planned to take the Lü Bolong, but since Lü Bolong enhanced more attributes, he expected to feel even worse afterward, combined with the ghost-pressing sensation at night, he thought he would explode during the day.

To be safe, he opted for a more moderate attribute enhancement with the Sith Dragon first.

That’s what he originally thought.

In retrospect, it was lucky he chose Sith Dragon in the morning. If he took Lü Bolong and needed to take it three times a day, he would have been miserable to death. But Sith Dragon wasn’t much better, uncomfortable nonetheless.

But this is just scenery on the road to becoming stronger, I will eventually surpass them.

“Whew!”

With half a bun in his mouth, Chen Ran hurriedly sat down, shoved the bun under the desk, turned to Ye Mingqiu, with a serious look, he said, “Uh, there’s something I need to tell you, uh… it’s important.”

“Go ahead.”

“It’s related to Tang Ruobing, hm, it’s relatively negative.”

“Huh?”

Ye Mingqiu’s expression changed instantly, it was as if a lion awoke in his eyes, he stared seriously at Chen Ran, asking, “Is there any scandal? Any unclear relationships?”

“It’s more serious than that.”

“More serious!”

Ye Mingqiu was taken aback, thinking: No way… my youth, my life, not that kind of thing! Those tabloid rumors I don’t believe, she can’t be that kind of person, she’s a Mage!

“There’s a forum suggesting she loves to flirt with inexperienced Xiao Chunans, usually appearing when they need help the most, offering assistance with a cold, icy demeanor, then actively asking for gratitude, giving a bright smile, and stealing the hearts of Xiao Chunans, leaving them dazed all day.”

Chen Ran sighed, clenched his fists, and said, “Ye Mingqiu, you can’t win against her because… you’re also an inexperienced Xiao Chunan!!”

What the heck!

You’re the Xiao Chunan!

Your entire family is Xiao Chunan!

Ye Mingqiu’s fists hardened, wishing to grab Chen Ran’s hair and go all out on his face. As for the negative comments, Ye Mingqiu actually knew, the doctor in the medical room said she was raking in merits, it should be related to her talent.

So, Ye Mingqiu snorted coldly, a bit of disdain, arrogance, and a hint of indifference in his gaze, he said, “I’m different.”

“…”

Chen Ran sighed again, in his eyes, Ye Mingqiu was no different from those who get tricked by girls and still say “She’s different.”

Just self-deception.

But then, he frowned, scrutinized Ye Mingqiu, and asked, “Hey, why is your face so pale today?”

“Didn’t sleep well last night.”

“Didn’t sleep well?”

Chen Ran thought for a moment, his eyebrows suddenly unfolding, he instinctively stepped back, almost tripping over, looking at Ye Mingqiu in shock, trembling, he pointed at him and murmured, “The different you mentioned… could it be that kind of different that I didn’t understand?”

“Huh?”

Ye Mingqiu was puzzled.

Right then, a student council officer came to Class 9’s door, knocked, and loudly said, “Is Ye Mingqiu here?”

“I’m here.”

“Congratulations, your application for the college entrance exam preparation team has been approved, go to the dean’s office to sign, and you can officially join the preparation team.”

The student council officer said with a smile.

At these words, the entire class was astonished.

The college entrance exam preparation team, those are the early battlers for the college entrance exam, getting the best resources in the school, the highest welfare; it’s not a qualification ordinary people can obtain.

Ye Mingqiu’s grades were so poor, what right does he have to join the preparation team? What right?

Suddenly, Chen Ran’s mind cleared, he gaped, muttering, “Whoa, whoa, it seems you really have something different, is this counted as successfully climbing up?”

“I earned it by my own abilities!”

Ye Mingqiu retorted furiously.

Damn, he just has slightly lower grades, but he has high potential, both Tang Ruobing and the dean recognize it, the only drawback is money-draining.

Hmph!

A bunch of short-sighted mortals!
