Chapter 16
C16 – Shopping
The field was enveloped in silence.
Ruan Xinghao’s smile froze on his face as he locked eyes with Zhao Su, who was only an arm’s length away. Despite exerting significant effort, his punch failed to make contact. Zhao Su casually pinned his fist with just two fingers, halting any progress.
What was going on?
Ruan Xinghao stared at Zhao Su as if he had seen a ghost. The strength in Zhao Su’s two fingers appeared to equal the force of his full-powered punch. Those fingers seemed like immense pillars holding up the sky; Ruan Xinghao had used all his might and still couldn’t move forward.
This wasn’t an act, yet the situation was incredibly dramatic!
All the onlookers’ mouths hung open in sheer amazement.
Zhao Su nonchalantly reached out his other hand and tapped Ruan Xinghao’s forehead, sending him stumbling backward as though he had been hit by a car. He slid a long way across the ground before finally coming to a stop, now covered in dust and dirt.
Ruan Xinghao was assisted to his feet, his gaze filled with shock as he looked at Zhao Su. His initial resistance had turned into extreme fear; only when facing Zhao Su head-on did he understand his might.
Zhao Su gestured, “Come here.”
By then, Ruan Xinghao was truly scared, standing still at a distance, too terrified to move closer.
Zhao Su approached him, and Ruan Xinghao gulped.
“Now, I think I’ve proven that I deserve to be with Yuyan. No one should have any objections. Wouldn’t you agree?” Zhao Su said calmly.
“Yes!” Ruan Xinghao nodded enthusiastically.
Zhao Su gave a satisfied nod in return.
Just then, Luo Yuyan rushed over, her forehead glistening with sweat. Seeing Ruan Xinghao next to Zhao Su, she exclaimed with fiery protectiveness, “Ruan Xinghao! Don’t you dare bully my big brother, or you’ll have to deal with me!”
Ruan Xinghao was on the brink of tears.
He felt wronged but didn’t dare to complain, especially with Zhao Su’s firm grip on his shoulder, as unyielding as a clamp.
Ruan Xinghao nodded earnestly, “I promise, no more trouble with him from now on.”
Hearing his promise, Luo Yuyan huffed, looped her arm through Zhao Su’s, and turned to leave with him. The onlookers were abuzz with comments:
“The Host has won the heart of the beauty!”
“I never imagined the Host would be this impressive!”
“What a wonderful little girl!”
“The Host is truly incredible!”
Back in the classroom, Ruan Xinghao sat quietly next to Zhao Su, who was immersed in his thoughts, communicating with the system.
”System, open the exchange feature in the shop!”
“The shop is now open. Host, you can use Popularity Value and gifts to exchange for items in the shop.”
As the system’s voice faded, Zhao Su was presented with a dazzling space filled with numerous transparent shelves, each displaying a variety of items. One shelf held a small card—the Obedience Card, a single-use item that made the affected person follow your commands for 30 minutes, costing 1000 Popularity Value points.
Zhao Su’s eyes roamed over other items like Memory Water, Quickstep Shoes, and Charm Perfume. More premium items included Flying Wings, Invisibility Clothes, and even secret martial arts manuals. The Flying Wings alone required a whopping one million points, which left Zhao Su in awe.
Despite the high-tier items being out of reach, he could still exchange for more affordable ones. However, Zhao Su couldn’t find where to exchange gifts. After a thorough search, he finally found an inconspicuous box in a corner at the shop’s entrance—a Popularity Value exchange machine.
