The Art of Clinging to Powerful Thighs

Su Nanxiu calmed down, her eyes casually glancing at the shoulder he had just touched, tugging at the strap of the cloth bag on her other shoulder, and continuing to stare at Zhu Juntang.

"You're not afraid of anything? What makes you think you can say that?" Su Nanxiu coldly questioned Zhu Juntang.

"I have many skills," Zhu Juntang said without hesitation.

Tell me?

Zhu Juntang then began to think, and after five seconds, she frowned.

Su Nanxiu snorted coldly.

I'm good at taking selfies.

"What kind of skill is this!" Su Nanxiu reminded herself that she couldn't be like other middle-aged women who get angry at children and jump up and down, but she still couldn't help raising her voice.

"I know how to suck up to someone's leg!" Zhu Juntang swaggered a few steps, then grabbed Liu Chang'an's arm and swayed it back and forth, extremely smug.

"Heh." Su Nanxiu still sneered.

"You don't know this, do you? There's an art to currying favor with powerful figures. Why were there so many so-called retainers and advisors in history? They were there to curry favor with powerful figures. The so-called Four Lords of the Warring States period, as well as Qin Shi Huang and Liu Bang, were all powerful figures. How many people achieved success by currying favor with the right powerful figures?" Zhu Juntang said, patting Liu Chang'an's arm.

"This isn't my thigh." Liu Chang'an pushed her hand away.

"You're quite good at spouting nonsense," Su Nanxiu said irritably.

"How can I call this nonsense? He's the one who talks the most nonsense. I'm just eloquent." Zhu Juntang felt that what she said made a lot of sense and was going to leave Su Nanxiu speechless. She continued, "Your Su Family and our Zhu Family have a common great-grandmother, who was the eldest Miss Su back then."

Su Nanxiu looked at Zhu Juntang suspiciously, but one thing was for sure: you can't expect anything good to come out of a dog's mouth.

"Back then, Miss Su was quite the expert at currying favor. According to my investigation, her business acumen was rather mediocre. Her attempt to acquire the Ye Family's assets failed, so she resorted to using herself as bait, selling her charms to cling to the Ye Family's eldest son—the strongest and most powerful man in the world—which led to the Zhu Family's current prosperity. It's a pity she later married Old Master Zhu, preventing a happy ending." Zhu Juntang patted Liu Chang'an's arm, offering him some comfort.

When Zhu Juntang noticed that her little cousin had stopped arguing, she turned around and was immediately startled. Her little cousin's face was ashen, turning pale and then purple!

"This... this thigh is yours." Zhu Juntang sensed something was wrong. It was an intuition. Every time her little cousin was furious, Zhu Juntang would also suffer the consequences. Moreover, this little cousin was indeed ruthless, and Zhu Juntang didn't want to be her enemy.

Zhu Juntang pushed Liu Chang'an, trying to push Liu Chang'an onto Su Nanxiu, but Liu Chang'an didn't budge. Zhu Juntang gave up after pushing him twice and calmly ran away.

Liu Chang'an took a couple of sips of apple cider vinegar, watched Zhu Juntang's retreating figure, and laughed. The Immortal Sheep still loves to court death.

"What's so funny?" Su Nanxiu's face was still very unpleasant.

"If this isn't funny, then what is?" Liu Chang'an frowned. "How about you tell me an even funnier joke?"

"Hehe, aren't you spoiling Zhou Dongdong a lot now? Wait until your Zhou Dongdong grows up, then you'll see how funny you are." Su Nanxiu scoffed.

Liu Chang'an looked slightly worried, then shook his head. "No, Zhou Dongdong definitely won't be like Zhu Juntang... a fairy."

"She's a fairy? Yes, she's a fairy, a Bodhisattva. I even want to worship her." After saying this, Su Nanxiu gently patted her chest, calmed herself down, and then took small, hesitant steps towards the teaching building.

Not far away, Yan Qingcheng and several girls from her dormitory walked over. Yan Qingcheng glanced at Liu Chang'an and was taken aback when she noticed that he was holding a jar of apple cider vinegar.

"Come on, what are you standing there for?"

Yan Qingcheng quickly chuckled and continued walking forward.

"Orange Juice, is Liu Chang'an easy to get along with?" a girl behind Yan Qingcheng asked in a low voice.

Every class has those kinds of people who, almost a semester has passed, haven't really interacted with any girls.

Even after four years, people might still not be very familiar with each other.

Some are simply unpopular with girls, some are easily insecure around girls, and some are just very introverted with a narrow social circle.

Liu Chang'an is a person who... it's hard to describe.

"It's alright." Yan Qingcheng wasn't used to speaking ill of others, and in fact, she couldn't say whether Liu Chang'an was easy or difficult to get along with.

Getting to know him and saying hello is no problem, but becoming friends with him and getting him to consider you a friend seems to be a more difficult thing.

Yan Qingcheng wasn't sure if Liu Chang'an considered her a friend, even though he had said things like he would protect her at Xiangtan University.

"He has so many girlfriends," another girl remarked.

"Don't talk nonsense," Yan Qingcheng quickly said. The incident where Liu Chang'an asked her if she wanted Daktarin Suppository made Yan Qingcheng reflect a bit... Putting aside Liu Chang'an and Qin Yanan, Liu Chang'an and Zhu Juntang really didn't seem to have anything going on.

If a girl and a boy have had a relationship, it probably wouldn't be like the way Zhu Juntang and Liu Chang'an interacted.

"Don't you think it would be nice to be one of his girlfriends?"

"Ugh, I didn't!"

Yan Qingcheng smiled upon hearing this. The conversation between the two girls actually revealed some things... It's not just because guys are good at flirting that scumbags never lack girlfriends. Sometimes girls just have this mentality: if a guy is popular, she wants to try dating him.

With this impulse, it's easy to blind and deceive yourself, making you more susceptible to being hooked when a scumbag tries to seduce you.

Girls should be especially careful to maintain their integrity and be very cautious when it comes to dating. Even if they agree to try dating, they should still maintain certain bottom lines and observe whether the other person's character and conduct meet their requirements while dating.

As Yan Qingcheng was lost in thought, Liu Chang'an walked over, met her gaze, gave her a smile, and brushed past her.

He casually tossed the apple cider vinegar jar into the trash can (which is recyclable) a few meters away, and the girls behind him gasped softly.

Yan Qingcheng believed that he wasn't deliberately trying to look cool. It was just that a boy like Liu Chang'an, who was cultured and full of inner qualities, would often exude charm unintentionally with his every move. Only a boy who lacked inner substance would rack his brains to strike a cool pose, doing it very deliberately.

Surprisingly, during class, Zhu Juntang didn't act all wronged and aggrieved after being bullied by Liu Chang'an. Instead, she took the initiative to sit next to Yan Qingcheng.

Yan Qingcheng glanced back and saw that Su Nanxiu was sitting next to Liu Chang'an again. She couldn't help but want to gossip about this little girl, Su Nanxiu, with Zhu Juntang.

"That little girl, Su Nanxiu, seems like she hasn't even finished puberty. She's just like any other kid her age. I hate her so much," Zhu Juntang complained. Actually, as long as Su Nanxiu didn't start cursing whenever she saw Zhu Juntang and Liu Chang'an together, Zhu Juntang quite enjoyed playing with her little cousin.

Seeing Zhu Juntang bring up Su Nanxiu, Yan Qingcheng quickly followed up, "She's just going through puberty, she's only fourteen... Such a genius is different from ordinary people."

"Genius? What's so special about them? I'm a fairy!" Zhu Juntang said dismissively. She truly didn't think geniuses were anything special. Geniuses were actually quite common. Zhu Juntang had met many high-level talents working in the Zhu Family's company, and weren't they also called geniuses when they were young?

As it turns out, they all end up working for fairies, which shows that fairies are more remarkable than geniuses.

Yan Qingcheng chuckled. Now she realized that when Zhu Juntang called her a fairy, the fairy in her words was completely different from the way ordinary girls referred to themselves as fairies... When ordinary girls say they are fairies, they mean that they are beautiful and ethereal, but the "fairy" in Zhu Juntang's words refers to a species.

Just as geniuses and mortals are not the same species, fairies and mortals are not the same species either.

Could it be that Zhu Juntang and Liu Chang'an have a good relationship because, to some extent, they both believe themselves to be extraordinary? Do they share this common understanding?

"Liu Chang'an often bullies you, but he doesn't seem to bully Su Nanxiu much." Yan Qingcheng didn't want Zhu Juntang to misunderstand that she was always observing Liu Chang'an, so she quickly added, "These past few days you haven't been to class, and during class I always turn around to see if you're here, but I always find Su Nanxiu sitting next to Liu Chang'an, sometimes together, sometimes behind him."

"That's what I hate most about Liu Chang'an; he's especially good at bullying me." Zhu Juntang said sullenly, crossing her arms. "He probably thinks I'm easier to bully. I can't beat him, and even when I call for help, we still can't beat him."

"There's nothing we can do about not being able to beat them... We girls are naturally at a disadvantage physically. Famous women in history, even female generals who commanded armies, weren't known for their martial prowess." Yan Qingcheng sighed softly, "How could you fight Liu Chang'an?"

"I didn't fight with him, he was the one who hit me." Zhu Juntang suddenly became very angry when she thought of this.

Every time Liu Chang'an bullied her, she forgot to fight back, and just watched him do whatever he wanted with tears in her eyes. She can't do that again.

Zhu Juntang couldn't help but feel a little restless, wanting to experience the feeling of him bullying her and then beating him up.

"What are you going to do?" Yan Qingcheng saw a dangerous glint in Zhu Juntang's eyes, somewhat like the neighbor's kid who was about to throw firecrackers into the septic tank.

Zhu Juntang was only thinking about it for now. Su Nanxiu was sitting next to Liu Chang'an. If she went to provoke Liu Chang'an again, Su Nanxiu would definitely gossip and make trouble. She hated it.

Let's try another day instead of today.

I recommend a book called "I Am the Legendary BOSS," a high-quality game-themed fantasy novel of nearly a million words, where the protagonist transmigrates into an NPC!
