Be a Good Boy and Marry Me

Shen Yunrui, unable to outsmart her, was outraged and in his embarrassment, he swung his muscular fist towards Gu Li’s face with malicious intent.

The crowd was completely shocked.

In that instant, it was as though everyone had been frozen in place. They could only watch as his fist hurtled towards Gu Li. They wanted to shout out, but no words would come.

Gu Li wasn’t frightened in the least.

She swiftly dodged his attack and even grabbed his wrist directly.

Although it didn’t look like she exerted much force, Shen Yunrui was strangely immobilized and no amount of struggle could set him free.

“Let go, you wench!”

“Let go, or I’ll get you expelled from school!”

“You wench—”

Shen Yunrui turned the color of a pig’s liver as he had not expected a petite skinny girl to best a hulking man standing over six feet tall.

“Let go of me, you wench!”

Shen Yunrui’s face was contorted with rage as he remained trapped by Gu Li’s vice-like grip. He lashed out with his leg in an attempt to kick her.

Of course, Gu Li had no intention of allowing herself to be kicked. With a nimble move, she shifted behind him and applied force to his restrained arm, bending it backwards.

“Agh—”

A blood-curdling scream echoed throughout the room, making the entire classroom shudder.

Everyone finally snapped back to reality.

Fearing Gu Li might get into bigger trouble, Yang Qian rushed over and diplomely advised, “Gu Li, you…you should just let him go now.”

Where she had previously been dismissed as weak, she had just effortlessly taken down the school’s bully. Her physical prowess impressed them enormously.

Of course, this also quelled any improper intentions held by the other boys towards her.

Which man, lacking in strength and confidence, would dare to choose a girlfriend who was clever, beautiful, and far better in a fight than they were? Wouldn’t that be asking for trouble?

“Ah-choo—”

Meanwhile, a man who was in a meeting sneezed unexpectedly, startling a group of executives.

“Young master, have you caught a cold?” Lu Yang asked with concern.

Mor Shiting answered nonchalantly, “No, I just think Young Madam is thinking of me.”

Lu Yang: “…”

The executives:

It was their first time witnessing someone expressing love in such a way.

Imperial City University.

Thanks to the intervention of a well-meaning class leader, Gu Li finally relented and let Shen Yunrui go.

But even as she was being escorted away, she turned back and coldly warned the visibly suffering Shen Yunrui, “Try to throw my things away again, I dare you!”

“Just you wait and see!” Shen Yunrui yelled back through gritted teeth.

Noticing that many classmates were giving him strange looks, he felt a significant loss of face. He snapped out a threat, “What are you looking at? Keep looking and I’ll gouge out your eyeballs!”

The gaze of the students scattered immediately, a collective shudder passing through the group.

“A bunch of idiots!” Shen Yunrui stomped off, cursing under his breath. He hoisted his backpack onto his shoulder and stormed out of the classroom, ignoring the rest of the lesson.

With his absence, the classroom erupted into a tumult of whispers and chatter, resembling a lively marketplace.

The homeroom teacher tried to maintain order with a few polite coughs, but the students were too excited to be calmed and the teacher let them be for a little while.

Indeed, even the teachers had trouble tolerating Shen Yunrui’s conduct. But knowing the weight of his family influence, they wouldn’t dare to directly confront him, leading to a deep sense of frustration.

Yang Qian led Gu Li to an empty seat on the other side of the classroom.

Her new desk mate was a fat, small-eyed girl with glasses who was quite cute.

The girl initiated a conversation with Gu Li, “Hi, nice to meet you. My name is Xiang Xiaoyue.”

“Nice to meet you.” Gu Li replied politely and took her seat.

Earlier on, she had considered the seat to be too far away, but after stirring up all this trouble and inadvertently revealing her skills, she regretted not choosing to sit there sooner.

Oh well, no use in over-thinking it now.

After all, she did give that brat a hard-earned lesson. She should be happier about it.

A few minutes later, the class resumed, and order gradually restored in the classroom.

After class, during the break, Xiang Xiaoyue couldn’t help commenting, “Gu Li, you’re so incredible. Have you studied martial arts?”

Gu Li replied truthfully, “Yeah, just a little bit.”

She added, “It’s necessary for girls to learn some self-defense if they can handle the hardship. That way, you will feel more confident wherever you go.” “Indeed.” Xiang Xiaoyue nodded in agreement. “But if I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn’t have believed that a gentle and beautiful girl like you could actually beat Shen Yunrui.”
