Shen Yu's Mission Failed Yu Wan'er is Jealous

Yu Wan'er covered her small mouth as if in fear, but still glared at Jiang Che defiantly.

"I still don't believe it. How could someone like you make Shen Yu fall for you?"

"You're just bragging!"

The little loli pouted, her eyes filled with disdain as she looked at Jiang Che.

"You don't believe me?"

"Nope!"

Jiang Che chuckled softly, then slowly pushed open the door to the study room.

The spacious study room was occupied by only Shen Yu. At Shilan School, a prestigious institution, hardly anyone studied on their own, and there were no designated study periods.

Someone like Shen Yu, who excelled academically and even won a gold medal in the International Mathematical Olympiad, was undoubtedly a highly sought-after candidate by top universities.

However, Shen Yu was bound to a "Genius System" that required her to complete daily academic tasks, making this study room her personal sanctuary.

Jiang Che walked in casually, hands in his pockets, nudging the door open with his foot.

He moved closer to Shen Yu.

Meanwhile, Yu Wan'er pressed her face against the window of the classroom's back door, her eyes wide open. She couldn't believe that Jiang Che could melt Shen Yu's icy demeanor.

She had briefly interacted with Shen Yu before, and the girl had always been indifferent to everything. There was no way she would develop feelings for a man.

*Hmph, you pervert, you're definitely going to get rejected this time!*

Yu Wan'er's cheeks puffed up in frustration. Having been bullied by Jiang Che recently, her life had been miserable.

That's why she wanted to see Jiang Che get humiliated by someone else.

...

Shen Yu was visibly exhausted. If one looked closely, they could see dark circles under her eyes.

Her skin was pale, not the kind of sickly pale, but a cool, porcelain-like tone.

Her beauty, however, gave off an aura of aloofness, as if she kept everyone at arm's length.

The dark circles stood out starkly against her fair, smooth skin.

In front of Shen Yu was a thick stack of draft paper, filled with dense calculations and formulas.

The girl was so focused that she didn't even notice Jiang Che approaching until he was right beside her.

"So? The three-day deadline is up. Did you figure out the problem I gave you?"

Jiang Che's teasing voice reached Shen Yu's ears.

The girl slowly raised her head, looking somewhat haggard, with even a hint of bloodshot in her eyes. Yet, she was still breathtakingly beautiful, like a delicate porcelain doll.

Shen Yu blinked twice, her expression as calm as ever.

Two seconds later, she leaned forward, lifting her head, and gently pecked Jiang Che's lips.

Then, she sat back down with the same composed expression. "I lost. A bet is a bet. This is your kiss."

Jiang Che touched his lips, the faint scent of Shen Yu's fragrance still lingering in the air.

There was no denying it—Shen Yu was both rational and intelligent.

She had minimized her losses and caught him off guard. She knew... if she didn't take the initiative, Jiang Che wouldn't have settled for just a light peck.

Meanwhile, Yu Wan'er, watching from outside the classroom, was stunned.

She couldn't believe her eyes.

*How is this possible? How could Shen Yu take the initiative to kiss that pervert Jiang Che?*

Could it be... Shen Yu is one of those contrasting personas? Putting on the facade of a cold academic genius, but deep down... tsk tsk tsk.

*Hmph, you jerk Jiang Che! How could you let her kiss you? You disgusting man!!!*

Yu Wan'er, hiding behind the classroom, stomped her feet in frustration, her jealousy so thick that Jiang Che could practically smell it through the walls.

...

"Can't figure it out? Looks like even the top student isn't all that great, huh? You're way behind me~"

Jiang Che plopped down next to Shen Yu, even scooting his chair closer until their shoulders touched... the epitome of shamelessness.

Shen Yu also moved her chair, but her left side was already against the wall, leaving her with no room to retreat.

"Want me to teach you?"

Jiang Che reached out, grabbing Shen Yu's hand that was holding the pen.

Behind the door, Yu Wan'er was grinding her teeth in anger. *You jerk! Why are you two so close now?*

*Get away from each other already! (╯°□°）╯︵┻━┻*

Shen Yu trembled slightly. "No need. I can solve it myself!"

This was her system's long-term side quest. If Jiang Che really solved the problem, her task would definitely fail!

This kind of task was a test from the system. The Genius System wasn't one that simply dumped knowledge into her brain; she had to learn and figure things out on her own.

"Oh? Little Yu'er, did you trigger a system task? The problem I gave you... did it activate your system task?"

Shen Yu's shoulders stiffened, and Jiang Che's smile deepened.

He had guessed right!

But darling, do you know I'm actually the villain here?

"Little Yu'er, come on, let me help you complete your system task."

Ignoring Shen Yu's resistance, Jiang Che held her hand and began guiding the pen across the draft paper, step by step.

"This is my system task... I don't need your help."

But how could Jiang Che let Shen Yu have her way?

With his left arm wrapped around Shen Yu's slender waist and his right hand holding hers, he began solving the problem.

The theoretical verification of constructing a regular heptadecagon using a compass and straightedge was extremely difficult and tedious.

But hey, at least he had a beauty in his arms!

Though... Yu Wan'er was the one truly suffering.

The little loli had been eavesdropping for over two hours, completely lost.

*What are they talking about? Why can't I understand? Is it some kind of coded language? Damn it!*

*Imaginary numbers? Complex numbers? Are they really discussing a problem?*

*Jerk Jiang Che, am I just a part of your little game?*

*You pervert! You scumbag! Calling her 'Little Yu'er' so affectionately!*

...

Shen Yu was utterly speechless. She had never met someone so shameless!

She really didn't want to listen to Jiang Che's explanation, but she had a photographic memory.

The worst part was, as she listened, she became engrossed. Jiang Che's approach to solving the problem was something she had never considered before—ingenious, almost godlike!

*Ding! Host's side quest failed. Please try again next time!*

Under Jiang Che's forceful guidance, she understood the problem, but her system task had also failed.

Even without Jiang Che, she was confident she could have solved the problem within three months!

But that was one million Genius Points!!!

Gone... Even with her usually calm demeanor, Shen Yu couldn't help but feel a pang of regret.

To make matters worse, while explaining the problem, Jiang Che had taken plenty of liberties, shamelessly taking advantage of her.

Of course... compared to losing a million Genius Points, these little intrusions weren't that big of a deal.

"Got it now?"

Jiang Che asked with a smirk.

His words caused another crack in Shen Yu's composure.

"Yes, now please let me go."

Seeing Shen Yu's frustrated expression, Jiang Che knew... her system task had probably failed!

But don't worry, darling, Jiang-gege will give you another problem!

Whatever you want, I've got it all, hehehe—
