Chapter 309: Chapter 309

The boy’s nose was red from the cold, and he couldn’t help sniffing.

"Damn it, someone else is after me again. What the hell is this bad luck."

The boy cursed under his breath, skipped the last period, and hid by the lake to play games. Who would’ve thought he’d doze off and accidentally overhear two girls plotting against him.

Jiang Shengyao felt like a piece of meat, with all the female demons wanting to take a bite.

He thought he even heard Leng Yunyang’s name mentioned.

Pulling out his phone, he saw his WeChat group was practically exploding with messages.

[Zeng Liang: Mr. Jiang, where’d you run off to? You missed a great show. Pics, pics.]

The other party sent him a series of more than ten photos.

The central character in several of them was Shen You’an.

Others featured Gao Yuyue, Leng Yunyang, and two girls. One of them looked somewhat familiar, while the other... seemed to be that "Cen Girl" who Zeng Liang and his buddies were joking about recently?

The photos were taken in the cafeteria, with a crowd of students surrounding this group, as if some conflict had broken out.

It took Jiang Shengyao two minutes to get a handle on what had happened. Then he went silent.

Turns out the two girls he overheard by the lake were none other than Luuo Yunqi and Xiao Ling, the focus of this storm.

After losing the school beauty contest, they accused Shen You’an of vote manipulation.

Then Leng Yunyang stepped up and slapped them with cold facts.

The two fled in embarrassment, and now they were scheming to cozy up to a bigshot powerful enough to counter Leng Yunyang.

Jiang Shengyao wasn’t narcissistic, but looking across Lanya High School, only he had that level of power and clout.

Bad luck for them, though—the "big golden thigh" they wanted to cling to had overheard their plan.

Jiang Shengyao rubbed his chin and sent a voice message: [Do you think I look like someone easy to tempt?]

It hadn’t been long since Lii Yinyin’s attempt, and now there was another one.

Falling into the same trap twice? Not a chance—he wouldn’t be named Jiang if that happened.

[No way, Mr. Jiang—you’re so dashing, suave, and brimming with charisma. Women at Lanya High could circle the campus three times and still not account for all your admirers. Your charm’s just too overwhelming; those girls can’t seem to help themselves.]

Jiang Shengyao listened to the voice message expressionlessly, then suddenly raised an eyebrow.

Zeng Liang followed up indignantly with another voice message: [That Luuo Yunqi is really shameless. Our brotherhood is full of die-hard Shen You’an fans—burning the midnight oil to cast votes for her. And in the end, she almost let a green tea girl sneak through the cracks. This is unbearable. Mr. Jiang, you can’t let Young Master Leng steal the spotlight. You’ve put just as much effort behind the scenes, but now he’s hogging all the glory.]

Jiang Shengyao wasn’t someone who could keep things bottled up. He had an upfront personality, almost to the point of being oblivious. Back in the day, no matter how many girls confessed to him, he acted like he couldn’t take a hint.

After returning to school after National Day, though, his bros noticed something had changed. Mr. Jiang kept visiting Class A. At first, they thought he and Qin Xiangge had something going on. One guy even made a joke about the two, only to get cursed out by Jiang Shengyao on the spot.

Zeng Liang, being sharp, pieced together the clues and figured it out—Mr. Jiang had developed feelings, but not for Qin Xiangge. The one who caught his eye was Shen You’an, the girl he once dismissed.

This would’ve been unthinkable in the past, as Mr. Jiang was a total face snob. If someone wasn’t good-looking, he wouldn’t even bother giving them a second glance.

Previously, Shen You’an was drab and unremarkable, and Jiang Shengyao had zero impression of her.

But now, with Shen You’an transformed, it wasn’t surprising that Jiang Shengyao had caught feelings. The rightful source is novel~fire~net

So when the school beauty contest began, Zeng Liang instinctively rallied the group to vote for Shen You’an. Sure enough, Jiang Shengyao showed a satisfied smile.

With that, Zeng Liang felt he’d cracked the code.

Young Master Leng, if you’re interested, just go for it. With your credentials, there’s no girl you can’t win over—why give Young Master Leng a chance to cut ahead?

That Casanova is a pro when it comes to wooing girls. If you keep hesitating, you’ll only have yourself to blame when the tears come.

Zeng Liang pleaded earnestly: [The school beauty is set to shoot promotional photos with Leng Yunyang for the group’s and school’s official websites. Aren’t you even the slightest bit worried?]

At this point, Zeng Liang’s eyes suddenly lit up: [Mr. Jiang, why don’t we organize a "school heartthrob" contest? We’ll go all out to secure the top spot for you. That poser Leng Yunyang doesn’t deserve it; he’s just a pretty face.]

The reply from Jiang Shengyao wasn’t a voice message this time. Instead, he sent back plain text: [Send me the info on that Cen Girl.]

Zeng Liang blinked, stared at the words multiple times, and confirmed it had indeed been sent by Jiang Shengyao.
