Chapter Index
    This identity of Shen Ji’s mixed-breed little mutt and good fortune storage jar, whoever wants it can have it, Jiao Bai wouldn’t pick it back up even for a hundred million.

    Jiao Bai walked out of the dog circle, but couldn’t leave South City because most of his friends on his list were here, and they were in the same circle. He could only change his position and take another path in.

    Among his friends were two students, namely Li Jue, the cheap shou of this comic, and Shen Er’an, the scum gong.

    Li Jue was in the countryside, so he couldn’t be reached for the time being, but Shen Er’an was at South City Three Middle School.

    At this time, his wings weren’t black yet, he was still a young man in a blue and white school uniform. His thoughts and scheming were only a little deeper than his peers, far less dog-like than those old men, so he was easy to deal with.

    So Jiao Bai came in.

    Jiao Bai sat down in the empty seat in front of Shen Er’an.

    This was originally Qi Shuang’s seat.

    When Jiao Bai withdrew from the dog-blood drama of two-choose-one, Qi Shuang was the designated future Mrs. Shen. They would register at the end of the year. The Old Lady considered it carefully and felt that his current identity was no longer suitable for being in the same class, or even the same school, as her grandson. So Qi Shuang transferred schools.

    Everything was in a frame. As long as one screw was moved, other nodes would follow.

    Jiao Bai waved to his female deskmate: “Hello.”

    The female deskmate couldn’t help but say: “Are you going to wear a mask and wrap yourself up so much even in class?” She belatedly realized that her words were a bit rude and awkwardly gripped the corner of her test paper.

    “Depends on the weather.” Jiao Bai took off the mask that was piled on his chin and smiled without minding, “Not now.”

    The female deskmate looked at him and said enviously: “Wow, you’re so fair, none of the girls in our class are as fair as you.”

    “My fairness is unhealthy fairness, it’s not good, I rarely get sun.” Jiao Bai’s attitude was very kind. His female deskmate was the best friend of Shen Er’an’s crush.

    Yes, Shen Er’an fell in love at first sight before Li Jue got tangled up with him. He built a secret garden for a girl in his world, filled with little flowers of secret love.

    That girl was in the liberal arts class next door. She was in her third year of high school, just like Shen Er’an, and her grades were the worst in the class.

    They were a classic love configuration of a rich, top student and a poor, bottom-ranked student, a two-way secret love.

    If it were in a romance story, this would be a story of redemption from school uniforms to pajamas, from “hello” to “I love you.”

    But this was a BL comic.

    Jiao Bai’s chair was kicked, and his upper body leaned forward, but he didn’t turn his head.

    He couldn’t look back now. The slag gong’s lackey’s fist must be hardened.

    Liang Dong’s hands were indeed clenched into fists. He approached Shen Er’an and said in a low voice, righteously: “An Ge, don’t worry, I’ll warn this kid after class. If he dares to talk nonsense at school, I’ll make him regret coming to Three Middle School.”

    Shen Er’an didn’t respond to Liang Dong. He concentrated on folding a dragonfly, his eyebrows and eyes calm.

    Liang Dong’s heart was in a mess. An Ge was such a good person, how could he have encountered such a disgusting thing.

    Fortunately, An Ge hardly participated in family activities, and the media didn’t dare offend the Shen family by secretly photographing him. Most people at school didn’t know his identity or family background, let alone that the former deskmate who transferred schools not long ago was his future stepmother.

    And this new classmate, a little over a month ago, was one of the candidates to be his little stepmother.

    One came after another left.

    Liang Dong didn’t dare to scold that big shot from the Shen family, so he bullied the lowly thing who sold himself to be a dog.

    Jiao Bai’s chair was kicked again. He calmly touched his books. Next year would be the college entrance exam again. Hopefully, he could fulfill his college dream.

    After class, Jiao Bai was blocked in the bathroom by Liang Dong.

    Liang Dong had two younger brothers guard outside. He kicked the door shut, touched his buzz cut that he had shaved himself, and exposed the arrogant green skin on both sides of his ears.

    “Why the name change?” He spoke in the tone of old friends reminiscing.

    “I’ll pee first, we’ll talk later.” Jiao Bai walked towards the urinal.

    Liang Dong was dumbfounded.

    When Jiao Bai said he was going to pee, he really was going to pee. He wasn’t panicking at all. In Jiao Bai’s world, the original owner’s appearance could be considered at a level where he wouldn’t lack suitors, but in this comic that could be called a feast for face-obsessed people, it wasn’t enough. Therefore, even if he lost the Shen family’s circle, there wouldn’t be a bunch of people wanting to imprison him, ravage him, or have forced love with him. No, there wasn’t. Really.

    The only one he had a grudge with, besides Qi Shuang, who he could barely suppress, was this guy glaring at him next to him.

    That was it.

    Jiao Bai came to Three Middle School for Shen Er’an. He had done his homework thoroughly and was prepared to send Shen Er’an into one of his four group roles in one go.

    That meant that his and Shen Er’an’s activity had to be high, they had to have a lot of contact.

    And Liang Dong was Shen Er’an’s buddy. For the sake of peaceful coexistence in the future, Jiao Bai had to settle this grudge.

    “Changing my name is to say goodbye to the past.” Jiao Bai adjusted his pants. “As for why it’s Jiao Bai…”

    Liang Dong’s heart beat faster unconsciously under his pause.

    Why? What could it be? He couldn’t figure it out. Liang Dong followed this guy’s train of thought like an idiot, and then he heard him say: “Because I like to eat it.”

    “Especially stir-fried Jiao Bai with shredded pork, it’s simple, easy to make, and delicious…” Jiao Bai’s words stopped because his collar was grabbed. Liang Dong breathed on his face, like a little buffalo that had been provoked. “What wasn’t finished at Di Ye, should it be finished?”

    Jiao Bai pretended to think: “That’s not good.”

    “So pretentious…” Liang Dong suddenly stopped talking. He vigilantly stared at the person who suddenly approached, and the muscles in both legs tensed up. “When I said I’d take care of you that time, I still mean…”

    Jiao Bai interrupted: “I’m sick.”

    “Do you think your dad is three years old? Where did you get sick? Could it be that the Shen family had you go out to sell yourself while they were taking care of you?” Liang Dong said harshly.

    Jiao Bai showed a bitter expression: “That night, Mr. Shen asked me to serve Chairman Qi.”

    Liang Dong was about to ask which Chairman Qi, but the words were on the tip of his tongue, and he was as if someone had hit him on the spine with a hammer. The high-spirited and domineering aura of the little bully was gone, and he became as cowardly as a dog.

    “Besides that kind of situation, I occasionally encounter,” Jiao Bai lowered his eyes, “people who want me to cooperate, just like you.”

    Liang Dong was half-believing, half-doubting: “Didn’t you resist that time? You even kicked me, damn it!” That’s why he took several days off before returning to school.

    Jiao Bai was silent for a while: “I was feverish, delirious.”

    Liang Dong snorted coldly: “Keep pretending, keep pretending!”

    “What am I pretending?” Jiao Bai covered his face. “Didn’t I just say? Sometimes I meet people who make those kinds of requests to me. I’m used to it. You don’t mind, so why should I mind?”

    Liang Dong’s face turned black, then green. It seemed really disgusting.

    On the outside, he looked like he had a lot of experience, but in reality, he was still a cowardly kid who only knew how to talk on paper and had never actually done anything. That night at Di Ye, he was messing around with a group of young masters, drank some wine, and watched a few erotic live broadcasts in the private room. He went out for some air, full of youthful energy, and on the way back, he went into a bathroom to wash his face, and that’s how he ran into this person. At that time, when he saw the other party’s impossibly thin waist, he had an impulse and forced and threatened the other party to submit.

    Just as this person was about to squat down, Liang Dong received a call from a girl in the private room urging him to go back. He had no choice, so he made an appointment with this person. Eight o’clock, same place.

    The next day, Liang Dong woke up sober. Besides anger, there was also disgust and relief. Fortunately, he didn’t get involved with that kind of person. He didn’t like it anyway.

    And this person was even dirtier than he had imagined.

    Too dirty.

    Liang Dong let go of Jiao Bai’s collar.

    However,

    Liang Dong circled around Jiao Bai. That time in the bathroom, this person didn’t dare to talk to him, nodding and shaking his head the whole time. How could he have changed so much? It felt weird.

    But he couldn’t figure out why. Liang Dong fiercely warned Jiao Bai to shut his mouth and not say anything he shouldn’t, or else he wouldn’t have a good time.

    The threat of a teenager was very childish and lacked any real aggression.

    When Jiao Bai returned to the classroom, Shen Er’an happened to be looking out into the corridor. Their eyes met.

    Shen Er’an turned his head and lay down on the table.

    Liang Dong made a sealing gesture to Jiao Bai, his face full of disdain, as if to say, “I’ve already told An Ge, don’t even think about playing tricks.”

    Jiao Bai was in a happy mood, and his steps were cheerful. He almost couldn’t help but jump up on the spot. It seemed that Liang Dong hadn’t disappointed him. He had told his buddy about his “past” so quickly.

    Great.

    Jiao Bai wanted to become the kind of person that Shen Er’an thought was the worst and dirtiest.

    That way, when the time came, as long as he showed a side that was slightly inconsistent with being bad and dirty and Shen Er’an happened to see it, it would arouse the other party’s curiosity.

    A little curiosity was enough.

    Jiao Bai scratched the top of his thick hair. What was this all about? Troublesome. He really wanted to say goodbye to this group of rich young and old masters and never see them again.

    “System or whatever, are you there? What am I supposed to do with these friends? Improve my life or something? It doesn’t feel like it has any meaning.” Jiao Bai asked in his heart.

    [Player Jiao Bai has questioned the game rules and has a provocative meaning. First warning!]

    [If the warning reaches three times, the player will be whipped.]

    Jiao Bai: “…” That’s so cruel.

    “Little cutie, are you alive? You haven’t made a sound this whole time.” Jiao Bai said gently, “Shen Ji’s activity has changed from 0.01 back to 0. He’s completely forgotten me, hasn’t he? He’s back to square one. The others are all zero, even my internet boyfriend is a zero.”

    “Shouldn’t you give me some mandatory tasks to do?” Jiao Bai said in an eager tone.

    As long as he did one mandatory task issued by the assistant to increase the activity of his friends, he would be able to figure out the game’s routine and copy it in the future.

    Who knew that the assistant didn’t make a splash at all and didn’t fall for it at all.

    This thing couldn’t communicate with him, it could only issue notices.

    Jiao Bai’s appearance wasn’t the aggressive type. The people around his seat came and went in waves, asking him how old he was, where he went to school before, etc. When he said he was nineteen, they were all surprised.

    Nineteen? Then why was he still in the third year of high school? Did he repeat a grade or retake the exam? Why? Then there was a bunch of derivative questions.

    Jiao Bai’s smile gradually became perfunctory. He waved them all away and secretly started playing with his phone.

    Last month, he joined a group.

    The group was full of employees from several high-end gay entertainment venues in South City, mostly 0s with a few 1s. Their daily routine was to complain, boast, and dream of being kept as golden canaries by the rich patrons.

    The customers who spent money at the venues were all in the upper class. The circle was so big that everyone would inevitably talk about big shots like the “Shen of the South and Qi of the West.” Jiao Bai could grasp a little information and recent news about them from it.

    Unfortunately, every time these people chatted, they started fantasizing. Everyone was dreaming of being Mrs. Shen or Mrs. Qi.

    A boy named Xiao Er Duo said that he didn’t want to be a little sparrow, he didn’t want a golden cage, he just wanted a big shot to be his dog.

    The group was silent for a second, then there was all sorts of fancy mockery.

    After mocking, they cried and decided to keep dreaming together.

    Jiao Bai flipped through the chat history, sorted out the useful content, and wrote it down. He was just about to close the window when Xiao Er Duo private messaged him: Gua Gua, do you have a dog now?

    Gao Gua: No.

    Xiao Er Duo: Then do you want me to introduce you to one?

    Xiao Er Duo: Wuwu, Gua Gua, I’ll be honest with you, don’t be angry. My brother saw your photo when I was organizing the photos of people in the group. He took a fancy to you.

    The group rules were that new people had to post a photo and share their first time. Jiao Bai’s photo had been photoshopped. He typed two words and sent them: No thanks.

    Xiao Er Duo: Ah, really? You don’t even want a dog? My brother is very dog-like! A purebred golden retriever!

    Jiao Bai still gave the same answer. What did he want a dog for? So annoying.

    Jiao Bai: I’m not chatting anymore.

    Xiao Er Duo: Gua Gua Gua Gua, are you unhappy? Then let my brother eat shit, I don’t care about him! Let me tell you, last night, I and a few girlfriends met up and heard them talk about Mr. Shen [covers face]

    Xiao Er Duo: He’s just scary strong. One of my girlfriends said that someone she knew was taken fancy by Mr. Shen and kept for a while. They had to drink several cans of Red Bull in advance every time to make it through.

    Jiao Bai: “…”

    Wow. So Red Bull was the biggest winner.

    So, where am I lacking in Dongpeng?
