Chapter 216: Star

'.....' Zhang Jian couldn't win as he continued the talk about Long Shen, "The damage you did to him is starting to go down now."

For the past few days, every time Zhang Jian would come to school, the first thing he would check up on was Long Shen. When Zhang Jian first checked up on Long Shen, he noticed something different about his class.

Besides Long Shen's arm being in a cast, the class atmosphere was much different from before. More like tense.

Usually, when Zhang Jian saw this classroom, it would be one unified group revolving around Long Shen. Instead of being unified, the classroom was separated into multiple smaller groups.

From what he could tell, some of them were murmuring about what Long Shen did before. Others were surprised that he came back after only one day at the hospital.

Whatever the case may be, most of them were dissatisfied with what Long Shen did.

"It was good in the beginning. But Long Shen is smart." Zhang Jian sighs. As the days passed, bit by bit, the divided classroom started to become more whole. From how happy everybody looked, it's like the incident never happened.

"Oh."

"Oh? How are you not surprised by this?" From how nonchalant Lu Chen is acting, Zhang Jian couldn't believe it.

"Do you know what he's doing right now? He's basically instigating more people to go against you as well." Besides maintaining his reputation, Long Shen also went on the offensive.

"Yao Shao was the one instigating you about how you are a crazy bastard." If one of his informants didn't tell him about it, Zhang Jian would have dealt with it much later.

Zhang Jian was able to lower the damage Lu Chen's reputation took with his network of informants. However, there was still some damage to Lu Chen's reputation. The incident was a double-edged sword for Lu Chen.

The image Lu Chen had before as he fought the thugs was too bloodthirsty to not say anything about it. There were too many people there watching it.

It had shocked all of them from how ferocious he looked. Some were even afraid of Lu Chen. Scared that he was going to tear them apart if they try anything funny.

"Does it really matter what everybody thinks about me right now?" It's almost a few weeks before the Gaokao. After that, he wouldn't need to go to school anymore.

And the children didn't matter as much. The people that he needed to worry about are the people behind them, their parents. The adults have the power and influence, unlike their children.

'I just need to focus on what I need to do and do it.'

'But I gotta admit, Long Shen does make good use of his pawns.' Yao Shao was too incompetent in focusing on the incident. Long Shen pulled strings behind the scenes.

It was a good move on his part.

While Lu Chen was thinking of this, Zhang Jian shook his head, "Well, if you got two beauties waiting on you, you wouldn't need to worry about what others think."

With Feng Meifeng and Ye Meixiu consistently waiting on him, no man would care about what others think about them.

People watching him, on the other hand, would be dying from tears of blood.

Lu Chen's face twitched. But he couldn't say anything to that. Even though the two of them were consistently coming to him, it was a little worrying. It did feel nice to know two flowers were beside him.

However, there was no time to think about these kinds of things as he asks Zhang Jian,

"Hey, do you remember our bet?" The moment Lu Chen said this, Zhang Jian instantly froze.

'Why are you bringing this up now?' Zhang Jian quickly denies it, "No, I don't know what you're talking about. What bet? Is it even a word?"

The consistent refusal just made him look even more sketchy.

"Since you know, I'm cashing it in now." Lu Chen knows this would be a perfect time to cash the debt in.

"Can't we do it later?" It felt really abrupt for Lu Chen to ask him now.

"Nope, have to be now."

".....Fine, what do you want me to do?" Thinking about it now, Zhang Jian gives up. He didn't know what Lu Chen was planning, but the earlier, the better. The sooner he lets Lu Chen pick it out now, the less he has to think about it.

Lu Chen smiles, "I'm going to make you a star?"
