The more Li Qiang thought about it, the more confident he was of winning the beauty’s heart. He had even begun to plan his future.

As long as Leng Ruzhi fell in love with him, he would become the Leng family’s son-in-law.

Li Qiang heard that the Leng family was quite wealthy, and they did not have a son.

From then on, all of the Leng family’s assets would be his!

At that time, he could just leave his family, and he would not have to live a hard life anymore!

He would have made a comeback!

Li Qiang felt that a bright future was just within his reach, and he seemed to walk more confidently.

Soon, he saw Leng Ruzhi, who was preparing to go to the library to study. He immediately went into simp mode again.

Leng Ruzhi was alone, but she was thinking about something.

She kept recalling her father’s words on that day she returned home.

“Ruzhi, you didn’t do well in this exam, so you should learn from your teammate, Chen.”

“Although he’s not strong, he’s not cowardly or rash.”

“He knows how to be flexible at critical moments.”

“Such a person will definitely have great achievements in the future.”

At that time, Leng Ruzhi was surprised.

“Dad, did you remember wrongly the process I told you just now?” she asked.

“I admit that he and Jiang Pan can be considered flexible when it comes to exploiting loopholes in the rules.”

“But you said that he’s neither cowardly nor reckless… How did you come to that conclusion?”

Leng Buwei shook his head with a smile.

He analyzed seriously, “You said that he was weak, right? But when he saw that you were injured, he still went up to help you.”

“Tell me. Can a person like that be considered a coward?”

Leng Ruzhi was slightly stunned.

“You said that other than this time, he has never done anything else,” he continued.

“Is it wrong for me to say that he’s not reckless?”

For a moment, Leng Ruzhi was left stunned, her mouth slightly open in shock.

However, after some thought, she spoke.

“But he only saved me because he was worried that he wouldn’t be able to leave the forest safely if I was injured!” she retorted.

“Isn’t that cowardly?”

Hearing Leng Ruzhi’s childish words, her parents looked at each other and laughed.

Upon seeing that, Leng Ruzhi got a little anxious. She was unsure of what she had said wrong.

Finally, her elder sister—Leng Rushuang—who was sitting next to her, put down her bowl and chopsticks.

She tucked her hair behind her ear and said calmly, “You think that as one of the more powerful people, you have a responsibility to protect the weaker ones.”

“Then what’s wrong with the weak knowing how to borrow the power of the strong beside them?”

“Besides, there are a few details about this teammate in this exam that you didn’t notice.”

Leng Ruzhi hurriedly asked, “What details?”

Leng Rushuang answered, “You said that he took the inner core from the metal box but put it back.”

“Think about it. If the metal box was discovered by another team, they’d have taken it and left the forest.”

“If there two teams had their eyes on the same metal box, they might fight over it immediately.”

“By putting the empty boxes back, Chen Feng bought your team some time and even reduced the number of competitors.”

Leng Rushuang paused and smiled.

“Moreover, you said that he protected your dignity when he reported the results at the end.”

“But in my opinion, he simply doesn’t want others to notice him.”

“After all, there’s a saying, ‘The shot hits the bird that pokes its head out’.”

Leng Ruzhi’s eyes widened.

She did not expect that anyone would have such a thought.

“As long as he announces his results, he will at least be in second place,” said Leng Ruzhi.

“The value of four Tier 2 inner cores might even surpass Jiang Pan’s results. It’s not impossible for him to get first place too.”

“There’s no reason for him to give up on this honor. He has to report his results to get the principal’s ranking reward!”

Leng Rushuang looked at her naive little sister. She did not continue to explain but merely stroked Leng Ruzhi’s head.

She said, “Well, you have to ask him that yourself.”

–

In a flash, Leng Ruzhi had already arrived in front of the library.

However, her mind would not calm down.

She could not believe that her parents and elder sister actually had such a high evaluation of Chen Feng.

This was completely beyond her expectations.

“If I bump into Chen Feng, I’ll definitely ask him!” she thought to herself.

With this thought in mind, Leng Ruzhi sorted out her feelings and entered the library to study.

However, the next moment, Li Qiang rushed in front of her and knelt on one knee.

“Leng Ruzhi, it was my fault last time.”

“I really didn’t know that the metal box was empty, and I didn’t mean to trick you.”

“To prove my sincerity, I specially bought two Tier 3 inner cores for you this time!”

After speaking, Li Qiang opened the exquisite packaging of the gift box and took out the inner cores.

Li Qiang even deliberately emphasized that they were Tier 3 inner cores, which immediately attracted the attention of some of the surrounding students.

Looking at the inner cores in the box, the students revealed envious gazes.

Leng Ruzhi, on the other hand, thought of her elder sister’s words “The shot hits the bird that pokes its head out”.

Those words perfectly described Li Qiang, the fool.

Thinking back to how Li Qiang took the empty box and left the forest to show off, it also confirmed that Elder Sister’s analysis was correct.

Chen Feng had indeed done many very meticulous actions during the exam. However, she had not noticed it at all!

Leng Ruzhi was overcome by a mix of emotions. At this moment, the only thing she wanted to do was find Chen Feng. She wanted to see if there were any other details that she overlooked.

“Li Qiang, you should keep these two inner cores for yourself.”

“Please move aside. I’m going in to study,” she said.

Li Qiang had already been defined as a fool by the Leng family’s daughters, so naturally he would not be able to make a good impression on Leng Ruzhi.

Besides, Leng Ruzhi had no interest in Tier 3 inner cores.

Coincidentally, Chen Feng walked out of the library. After giving Leng Ruzhi and Li Qiang a simple glance, he walked straight to the canteen.

Throughout the entire process, he did not stop for a second.

When Leng Ruzhi saw Chen Feng, she froze before chasing after him.

Right now, she wanted to find Chen Feng to resolve her doubts.

“Chen Feng, wait… wait for me,” she called out.

“I need to talk to you.”

On the other hand, Li Qiang was seething with anger. He had already taken out two Tier 3 inner cores, yet his goddess did not even spare a glance at him.

One second, she said that she was going to study. In the next second, she chased after that trash, Chen Feng.

Upon witnessing that, Li Qiang could not withstand the blow and almost had a breakdown.

“Chen Feng… it’s Chen Feng again!” he growled.

“Why? Why do you always have to go against me?”

Li Qiang gritted his teeth almost to the point of breaking them. Suddenly, the dean walked out of the crowd.

“Li Qiang, your family called you. It seems like there’s something urgent.”

“Go answer the call.”

Hearing the dean’s words, Li Qiang felt even more frustrated.

However, he did not dare to vent his anger on the dean. He could only glare viciously at Chen Feng’s back and follow the dean.

–

At the entrance of the canteen, Leng Ruzhi blocked Chen Feng’s path. Chen Feng frowned slightly and gave her a puzzled look.

“Leng Ruzhi? Is something the matter?” he asked.
