While Liu Chang'an and Zhu Juntang were studying hard and making progress every day, Guan Yuan didn't go to class.

The incident of the Xiangtan University being buried alive has caused a great uproar. This is an era of entertainment to the death, and an era where everyone speaks their mind freely.

Even if it's not a person or thing covered in stains, and the truth of the matter hasn't even been revealed in a fraction of its entirety, a large group of people have already licked their lips and produced a spray of saliva.

Most of these people are brainless. The word "most" is extremely accurate because that's the truth. If you disagree, just consider yourself part of the minority.

After so much noise, many organizations that frequently face social scrutiny and public attention have become much calmer. Although Xiangtan University launched an investigation into the incident, it was limited to the college level. Moreover, the parties involved remained silent, and some authoritative voices reminded the school leaders. In short, the matter was widely discussed, but there was no force to unravel the truth and reveal anything.

After classes started in the afternoon, many articles about this incident were deleted. This simple and crude approach has always worked. This is how you deal with the public. Most things that attract attention but don't actually have any serious impact will only cause a few days of noise. Once those who like to spar have shifted their interest, the matter will be over.

If it arouses public outrage to a certain extent, that's a different story.

Guan Yuan was temporarily relieved that the villa management hadn't installed any cameras inside the villa; otherwise, an investigation would have easily revealed it was him.

This morning, everyone left in a daze, and no one noticed when Guan Yuan started to disappear from everyone's sight.

Guan Yuan has now arrived at the glass house. The glass house is very beautiful and mysterious. Guan Yuan is currently only allowed to stay on the first floor and is not allowed to go up to the second floor by Su Nanxiu.

Humans are like this: the more something is forbidden, the more they yearn for it, regardless of the sins and desires that await those who cross the forbidden line.

"Interesting, as expected of Ye... as expected of Liu Chang'an." Su Nanxiu sat in front of the computer, her slender, pale fingers gently clicking on the remaining information and comments with the mouse.

Guan Yuan noticed that the way she held the mouse was also very beautiful. She lazily and gently covered the mouse, and each click of her index and middle fingers seemed to be stroking the smooth surface of the mouse. At the same time, her thumb would gently rub the side of the mouse, and her three fingers seemed to be rhythmically rubbing and pinching the tip of the mouse.

A girl with a cool demeanor and youthful face, yet the curve of her lips curled up in a mocking way that pierced the heart. Interesting? Guan Yuan never imagined that what he considered a lifelong disgrace was merely such a performance in her eyes.

"He seems to have buried quite a few people; his technique is very professional. I was buried in the ground by him, my limbs twisted, and even the slightest exertion caused excruciating pain all over my body. Moreover, something was stuffed in my mouth, making it impossible for me to grit my teeth and exert any force." Guan Yuan still dutifully reported the situation, feeling that Su Nanxiu had underestimated Liu Chang'an.

She underestimated Liu Chang'an, so she also bears responsibility for Guan Yuan's failure. According to normal thinking and logic, shouldn't Su Nanxiu have comforted and compensated Guan Yuan? For example, by making him stronger, at least giving him the ability to directly confront Liu Chang'an; otherwise, what's the point of sending him to fight Liu Chang'an?

"Have you read any novels about kings of soldiers?" Su Nanxiu casually clicked on a novel website and browsed through novels with the same keywords but different combinations to form the titles.

"No." Guan Yuan shook his head.

"Liu Chang'an is just that kind of 'King of Soldiers.' His life isn't much different from the 'King of Soldiers' in these novels, except he's more artistic and has a stronger inner strength. He doesn't have any of the 'post-traumatic stress disorder' that other 'King of Soldiers' suffer from, nor does he have many past entanglements that disrupt his current life... just a little bit." Su Nanxiu sneered, "Do you know the biggest difference?"

"What?" Guan Yuan wisely didn't answer, because since he had said he hadn't read any novels about kings of soldiers, he naturally wouldn't know the difference.

This is where Guan Yuan's wit lies; he reveals his shrewdness and composure in the details.

"No matter how cold and cruel those elite soldiers may appear, they will always describe how a woman touched their heart and made them vulnerable, or how she became their Achilles' heel." Su Nanxiu sighed.

"Liu Chang'an... you mean, he doesn't have a woman he likes?" Guan Yuan was incredulous. Liu Chang'an clearly had many women around him: An Nuan, Qin Yanan, Zhu Juntang, Bai Hui, each one more exquisite than the last. Guan Yuan felt that even someone as outstanding and promiscuous as herself would be content.

"No," Su Nanxiu said firmly.

"No way?"

"He's a heartless and ruthless man," Su Nanxiu sneered.

"This... you didn't mean that last night, did you?" Guan Yuan recalled Su Nanxiu's warning from yesterday. If Guan Yuan intended to take any drastic action, he might even provoke Liu Chang'an's retaliation, which would implicate Su Nanxiu. Wouldn't retaliation stem from loyalty and righteousness?

"I know him better than you think," Su Nanxiu replied patiently and expressionlessly to Guan Yuan.

Guan Yuan remained silent. Whether Liu Chang'an was loyal or ruthless, what did it matter to him? On the contrary, Su Nanxiu seemed to be full of resentment.

You're just a fourteen-year-old girl. If you were any older, people would really think you and Liu Chang'an had some kind of romantic entanglement.

"Why choose Bai Hui? Since Liu Chang'an is heartless and ruthless, he certainly won't care about Bai Hui either. It's better to choose An Nuan. At least it seems that, based on the available information, Liu Chang'an cares more about An Nuan." This is the question that Guan Yuan is concerned about. In fact, both Bai Hui and An Nuan are difficult to choose between, each with its own advantages. It's hard to make an adult choice.

"An Nuan?" Su Nanxiu frowned.

"Yes."

"An Nuan..." Su Nanxiu rubbed her temples, looking somewhat puzzled.

"An Nuan is Professor Liu's daughter at our school, and she's much more popular than Bai Hui," Guan Yuan said eagerly.

"An Nuan... this girl... I feel like there's something off about her, but I can't quite put my finger on it." Su Nanxiu frowned.

Guan Yuan did not disturb Su Nanxiu, who seemed to be continuing to ponder the problem.

"Forget about An Nuan. Just continue doing what you're supposed to be doing, and don't let my imagination run wild." Su Nanxiu waved her hand impatiently. "Since we can't defeat Liu Chang'an physically, the only way is to defeat him psychologically."

"Miss Su... if I may ask, what are your final plans for dealing with Liu Chang'an?" Guan Yuan sensed the deep resentment in Su Nanxiu's tone when she said this.

"Make him my man alone." Su Nanxiu stared at Guan Yuan, each word seemingly tapped out from between his bright white teeth.

Guan Yuan stumbled back a few steps in a panic, crashing into the wall. "You... he... why is the justice system so unfair? Who the hell is the protagonist anyway?!"
