Shen Yu was not intimidated by Jiang Che; instead, she remained remarkably calm.
Ever since their last meeting, she had more or less figured out Jiang Che's personality.
Though he was quite unpleasant, he still had some basic principles.
"You don't need to scare me. What exactly do you want to say?"
Seeing that Shen Yu was unmoved, Jiang Che shrugged nonchalantly and walked over to sit on the swing in the yard.
"You're really no fun, impossible to flirt with," Jiang Che complained before cutting straight to the point. "Miss Shen Yu, which university are you planning to apply to?"
Shen Yu glanced at Jiang Che. "Do you want to attend the same university as me?"
"I'm just asking."
"Because I won a gold medal in the Olympiad, I've already been directly admitted to Yan University."
"If you're thinking of pursuing me, I suggest you give up now. I have no interest in men, and I won't fall for you."
Jiang Che pursed his lips. Shen Yu was the typical bookworm type—someone who, with her focus on academics, had no need for romance.
"Are you sure you won't fall for me? That might not be the case!"
Shen Yu let out a disdainful snort.
"I'm in no hurry. We have plenty of time," Jiang Che said, leaning closer to Shen Yu's ear and whispering softly.
"I possess advanced knowledge from another world. Who knows? If you ever hit a wall in your research, I might just have the solution."
Jiang Che's words caused Shen Yu's expression to stiffen slightly.
Advanced knowledge from another world...
"Heh, let me tell you a secret. The civilization I came from before my transmigration had already mastered controlled nuclear fusion and had even begun exploring beyond our solar system, venturing into the vastness of space."
"Theoretical mathematics and physics were pretty much fully explored there."
Jiang Che was bragging shamelessly. After all, no one could verify his claims, and in this world, he could fabricate his identity as he pleased.
Tailoring his approach was key. For someone like Chen Ningshuang, a martial arts prodigy, he would use martial prowess to attract her. But for a cold and aloof academic like Shen Yu, advanced technology was the way to go.
Sure enough, Shen Yu's brows furrowed slightly.
"I don't believe you. Unless you can prove it—explain the principles of controlled nuclear fusion in detail or describe the development of mathematics in your world..."
Jiang Che wasn't fazed at all. He was ready to counter her every move.
"Of course, I can't reveal the most advanced knowledge. Those cutting-edge technologies are stored in my system, and I need points to exchange for them."
"Points?" Shen Yu asked, puzzled.
"Exactly. Didn't you guess it earlier? I have a 'Flirting System.' Whenever a girl develops feelings for me, I earn points, which I can use to exchange for anything in the system."
Shen Yu fell silent, unable to determine whether Jiang Che was telling the truth.
"So, you're planning to flirt with me?"
"Exactly!"
"Of course, I won't do it for nothing. All the points I earn from you will be saved up, and you can use them to buy any high-tech items you want."
The truth was finally revealed!
Shen Yu realized that the longest path she had ever walked was the one paved by Jiang Che's schemes.
After hearing Jiang Che's words, Shen Yu fell into a long silence once again.
[My Academic Genius System has its limits. Sooner or later, I'll hit the boundaries of knowledge.]
[Though I don't know if what he's saying is true, if there really is another world's science to draw from, the future would be boundless.]
Shen Yu was far-sighted. Ever since she obtained the Academic Genius System, it had granted her 100% learning efficiency. She could grasp any concept after just one exposure, especially the mathematical conjectures Jiang Che had mentioned, which had truly caught her attention.
Across countless worlds, she could sense how vibrant the field of mathematics must be in that other civilization.
She truly wanted to explore it, and the key to connecting with that civilization was... Jiang Che!
Hearing Shen Yu's inner thoughts, Jiang Che's lips curled into a smile. This little fish was almost hooked.
"Jiang Che, what's the criteria for earning points in your system? Do you get points just by sleeping with me?"
It had to be said, this chosen heroine spoke with such bluntness that even Jiang Che felt a little intimidated.
"No, no, no. You need to develop feelings for me, understand?"
Shen Yu's beautiful eyes narrowed. "You want me to fall in love with you?"
"Exactly," Jiang Che said with a smile, snapping his fingers.
He couldn't help but feel a bit like a creep, akin to a shady uncle luring a little girl with candy.
Shen Yu fell silent again, seemingly weighing the pros and cons. But this time, even her extreme rationality failed her, leaving her hesitant.
"Let me think about it."
"I'm planning to apply to Z University, which isn't too far from Yan University. I can come visit you sometime, though it might mean a long-distance relationship."
It had to be said, Jiang Che's shamelessness knew no bounds. Without even a hint of progress, he was already treating Shen Yu as if she were his.
[Long-distance relationship...]
Shen Yu was utterly speechless. She couldn't comprehend Jiang Che's thought process.
"Miss Shen Yu, since you don't like men and probably won't fall for anyone, why not just let me have a chance?"
Jiang Che's words nearly broke Shen Yu's composure.
[What... what a shameless person.]
[How can someone in this world be so utterly devoid of shame?]
Seeing Shen Yu's inner turmoil, Jiang Che couldn't help but laugh.
At that moment, Jiang Che's Choice System activated once again!
[Ding! Host has triggered a Villainous Choice!]
[Choice 1: Strike now, or never! Reward: SSS-grade Mathematics and Physics Book (Fragment).]
[Choice 2: What are you afraid of? Force your way through! Shen Yu's favorability -100. Reward: 30 years of internal energy.]
[Choice 3: Remain silent and maintain a respectful distance. Reward: A 'Nice Guy' card.]
Hehehe~ Same old flavor!
As expected of my system, it never disappoints.
Option three was an instant pass!
While options one and two weren't mutually exclusive, and the 30 years of internal energy from option two was tempting, Jiang Che wasn't the type to resort to such methods. He enjoyed the process of conquest.
Moreover, with a high-difficulty target like Shen Yu, the thought of making her fall for him was incredibly thrilling!
So, he had to... strike now!
Besides, the reward for option one was the most enticing.
[Mathematics and Physics Book (Fragment): A fragment of the Mathematics and Physics Book. The complete version contains all scientific knowledge in existence, making it a true encyclopedia. Mastering this book grants you the ability to know everything.]
Just look at that—the ability to know everything. The temptation was off the charts!
had the chance to commit theft legally, would you do it? In the year 2050 of an alternate world, global peace has become the norm. To raise public awareness about crime prevention, nations including China, the United States, Russia, and the United Kingdom jointly launched a reality show—The Thief Game. All stolen items obtained by participants would be converted into cash by the show’s producers. In an instant, every applicant went wild with excitement. While everyone’s attention was fixated on gold shops and jewelry stores, Chen Feng, holding the Kaito Kid character card, smirked and said, "Jewelry? I think the crown jewels of the British monarchy would be perfect."
