Money-Burning Club

"Then we'll wait for you in the classroom."

"Please come back soon."

After saying this, the two girls gave Liu Qingyue a fierce glare before leaving.

It seemed to say, 'You'd better not have any improper thoughts about our Su Cheng, or we definitely won't let you off.'

"Go find out who that senior is. I always feel there's something off about her, though I can't pinpoint what, but it makes me uncomfortable."

The blonde girl furrowed her brows and said in a low voice.

The black-haired girl nodded and also looked worried, "Yes, Su Cheng seems so innocent. What if he gets tricked by a bad woman?"

The blonde girl said seriously, "And he's also very gentle and kind. So, we absolutely can't let her succeed!"

Especially remembering the smile when Su Cheng forgave them just now, it made them feel warm inside, thinking Su Cheng was too kind.

He was full of grievances, even wanting to escape school to avoid it, but even so, he still insisted on forgiving them with gentleness.

How could they not feel heartbroken for Su Cheng?

This even stirred up their maternal instincts, wanting to do something for him or make amends, so he could suffer less pain and torment in the future.

"Mm-hmm, you're right. Then leave it to me. I have a friend who's a sophomore. I'll ask her later."

The black-haired girl patted her chest, showing a 'leave it to me' expression.

……………………………………

"Looks like the junior has gained two beautiful maiden knights."

Seeing the two girls leave, Liu Qingyue's face showed a faint smile, her tone teasing.

Su Cheng just shrugged, "They're just sensitive because they feel guilty. About what just happened, Senior, please don't mind."

"You're quite clear-headed."

Liu Qingyue nodded, "So why not take the opportunity to confess to one of them? Maybe you could even get a girlfriend?"

At this, Liu Qingyue suddenly leaned closer to Su Cheng and lowered her voice, "Hey, hey, do you like the blonde or the black-haired one?"

Feeling the sudden fragrance, Su Cheng subconsciously took a step back, "Neither!"

Then Su Cheng shook his head, "And if I confessed, it would be too despicable. Besides, a temporary relationship out of guilt has no meaning."

"What's despicable about that? Guilt can gradually turn into love. I believe that once they get to know you, they will definitely fall in love with you!"

Liu Qingyue said proudly, looking very cute with an expression that seemed to say 'I'm gradually understanding everything.'

"Gentle?"

Su Cheng shook his head, "No, no, the word gentle definitely doesn't suit me!"

He never considered himself gentle. On the contrary, he was quite violent and petty. And later, he was going to settle the score with Eddie, or he wouldn't be able to sleep tonight.

Probably because he had just forgiven the two girls, Senior Liu had labeled him as gentle.

But in reality, it was just because he didn't want to be seen as a monkey. After all, there were a lot of people around, plus he had some strange guilt, although it was two different things, but he had indeed threatened someone.

"Want to go eat?"

However, Liu Qingyue didn't refute Su Cheng's point of view. Instead, she suggested, "The afternoon is all physical education classes. If you don't eat, you'll be out of energy."

Su Cheng then realized that today's afternoon classes were swimming lessons, and he was shocked. He took out his phone to check the time and found there was still an hour before class. Finally, he shook his head, "Senior, I'm not hungry. I'll just buy a bottle of juice from the vending machine."

Because he had something he wanted to ask Liu Qingyue.

"Alright then."

Liu Qingyue nodded, and the two turned to head towards the vending machine.

Standing in front of the vending machine, Su Cheng looked at the plethora of drinks, pondered for a moment, then turned to look at Liu Qingyue, who was sitting beside him, swinging her long, slender legs wrapped in knee-high socks, looking bored. "What does Senior like to drink?"

"Black tea."

"Okay!"

Su Cheng nodded, then turned back to the vending machine and took out a can of black tea and a bottle of juice.

"Senior, I have something I'd like to ask you."

He opened a can of black tea and handed it to Liu Qingyue, speaking seriously.

"Thank you."

Liu Qingyue took the drink, thanked him, then took a sip and said, "What do you want to ask?"

"Click~"

Su Cheng opened the juice can and took big gulps, pouring it into his mouth and swallowing.

Due to the events of this morning, his brain had consumed a lot of sugar from rapid thinking, so he urgently needed to replenish it, or he wouldn't have the energy for the afternoon classes.

"Do you know Ji Qingyi, Senior?"

"Mm, she's in my class." Liu Qingyue nodded, "Probably the only one in the whole school you don't know."

"What's she like?"

"Is it because of the invitation to join the club?"

Liu Qingyue thought for a moment, then said, "If you compare others in the school to fireflies, then Ji Qingyi is undoubtedly the bright moon."

"I know that. What I want to ask is, why did she invite me to join the club?"

Su Cheng's expression turned serious. He hadn't forgotten the look Ji Qingyi gave him before.

It was a look like she was looking at a dead person. If he joined her club, wouldn't he be scared out of his wits every day?

"I don't really know that."

Liu Qingyue put her index finger on her chin and thought, "But I think she's probably a bit interested in you."

She continued, "Joining her club, you won't have to worry about being bullied at school anymore. And you're the first ordinary person to be invited to her club, so you must cherish this opportunity."

As she spoke, Liu Qingyue even showed a look of envy, clearly longing to join Ji Qingyi's club.

"Interested in me?" Su Cheng was stunned, then asked, "If I refuse, will she cause trouble for me?"

Thinking of Ji Qingyi's cold gaze, he felt a chill down his spine.

"I don't know that. There's no precedent."

At this, she showed a serious expression, speaking solemnly, "But rest assured, Junior, Ji Qingyi is not someone who likes to bully the weak."

As she spoke, she showed a look of admiration.

"Huh?"

"But don't mention those who offend her."

"Uh."

Hearing this, Su Cheng felt a headache coming on because he had indeed offended her. After all, confessing and then running away must have left a bad impression.

"What's she usually like at school?"

"Usually, I find that she either reads or deals with documents, and she doesn't even play with electronic products. Feels like a very conservative and old-fashioned person."

Liu Qingyue said as she observed Su Cheng's expression.

"Huh, doesn't she even use a phone?"

Su Cheng was surprised. In this day and age, there were still young people who didn't use phones?

"I've never seen her use one."

Liu Qingyue shook her head, then said enviously, "But I've heard that every morning, she has a chauffeur to take her to and from school, a nutritionist prepares her meals at noon, and in the evening, there are servants to take care of her. It's almost like being a princess."

"That's already being a princess, isn't it!"

Su Cheng rolled his eyes, then said, "Senior, are you envious of her life?"

"Of course."

Liu Qingyue smiled, then said, "After all, any girl would yearn for such a princess-like life! Not only worry-free but also enjoying the service of being surrounded by stars!"

After saying this, she saw that Su Cheng had fallen into some strange contemplation, so she quickly interrupted his thoughts, "By the way, have you considered it clearly?"

"Uh... yes... I've considered it clearly."

Su Cheng replied. He felt that his decision was correct. At least Ji Qingyi hadn't done anything impolite or disrespectful to him, and she had even helped him, so joining her club wasn't inappropriate.

Just give her face.

"Then you'd better communicate it well with your family. The club fees are quite a sum."

"There are club fees?"

Su Cheng was stunned and quickly asked, "Um, how much is it usually?"

"It should be quite a lot..."

Liu Qingyue thought for a moment, then replied, "At least several tens of thousands, probably."

"At least tens of thousands?"

Upon hearing this figure, Su Cheng couldn't help but stand up in shock. Tens of thousands?!

His little heart couldn't handle it.

"Some of the clothing and archery equipment are procured on a national scale. Although some competitions are fully sponsored by the school, there are still transportation and dining expenses that need to be covered out of pocket," Liu Qingyue explained. "So you'd better prepare yourself mentally in advance."

By this point, Su Cheng had a pretty good idea of what to expect. Going out with a bunch of rich kids naturally meant sticking to top-tier accommodation and dining standards.

"Then I need to think about it," Su Cheng sighed, starting to hesitate. He currently had a total of two hundred and fifty thousand Flame Currency on him.

"Is this fee charged annually or per semester?"

"Per semester," Liu Qingyue replied. "But if you achieve good results, the rewards from the school and the club are quite substantial."
