Girl, You Wouldn't Want This to Be...

Watching Yang Cheng leap up and retrieve the phone from the utility pole, Kikyo Kushida was initially stunned by his incredible physical ability.

But once she recovered, she realized that what she needed to worry about wasn't his absurd athleticism, but the contents of that phone.

"Hmm, the camera angle was pretty good. And it's in high definition, too."

Hearing Yang Cheng's words, Kikyo Kushida had a sinking feeling.

Glancing at the phone in his hand, Kikyo Kushida's expression darkened. "Yang Cheng, this was your first time meeting a girl from your class outside school. I never imagined you'd pull something like this."

To prove he hadn't just been putting on a show and had actually recorded what he wanted, Yang Cheng readily showed Kikyo Kushida his phone.

In the footage, Kikyo Kushida grabbed his hand and pressed it against her chest, threatening him with a sinister expression. She looked nothing like the sunny angel she usually pretended to be.

And just as Yang Cheng had said, they had been standing right beneath a streetlight, so both the lighting and the angle were perfect.

Both people in the video were perfectly clear. There was no room to argue her way out of it.

"I didn't have a choice. If it had been anyone else, I would've been a perfect gentleman.

But with you, Kushida, I really had to keep my guard up.

And the facts proved I was right to be cautious. If I hadn't taken that precaution, I'd be branded a pervert right now, wouldn't I?

So, Kushida, which do you think makes more convincing evidence: the fingerprints on your clothes, or the video on my phone?"

Kikyo Kushida had arranged this meeting to find out exactly how much Yang Cheng knew.

She hadn't expected him to not only know her so well, but turn her own scheme against her.

Having failed to achieve her goal and landed herself in trouble instead, Kikyo Kushida had no desire to keep talking to him. Looking thoroughly disgusted, she turned to leave.

"Yang Cheng, this won't end so easily. I'll definitely make you and Horikita..."

Before Kikyo Kushida could finish, Yang Cheng called out and interrupted her.

"Hey, hey, Kushida. Aren't you getting something wrong here?

First you asked me to come out here. Then, after learning that I knew what you were really like, you tried to threaten me that way.

Now that your little power play failed, you're just going to turn around and walk away? Aren't you taking me a little too lightly?"

At his words, Kikyo Kushida visibly froze just as she was about to leave.

Then she turned back to him. "Well, Yang Cheng? Is there something else you need?"

"Something else I need? Girl, you clearly don't understand the situation you're in.

Sure, you're popular, and everyone has a solid impression of how you normally behave. Even if I told them about your real personality, they probably wouldn't believe me.

But if I showed them this video on my phone, I wonder what they'd think?"

"Girl, you wouldn't want that fake image you worked so hard to build to come crashing down, would you?"

Kikyo Kushida froze. This isn't how the plot is supposed to go. Wasn't I supposed to be the villain?

Why does it feel like our roles have been reversed? And how the hell can he say that so naturally?

But Kikyo Kushida wasn't some timid little bunny who would lose her nerve that easily.

Ruthless as she was, she could sacrifice a great deal to achieve her goals, even choosing to betray Class D without a moment's hesitation.

So, faced with Yang Cheng's threats, Kikyo Kushida showed no panic whatsoever. Instead, a cold smile curled her lips. "Looks like I'm not the only one who's good at pretending.

What are you trying to threaten me into doing, Yang Cheng? Leaving Suzune Horikita alone? Or... do you want my body?"

As she spoke, Kikyo Kushida tugged at the neckline of her uniform, revealing a Great Rift Valley that would put ninety-nine percent of adult women to shame.

Watching her act like that, Yang Cheng was dumbstruck.

Okay, sure, the idea of making her my personal fuck... errand girl did flash through my mind just now.

But this was a school mind-game anime, not fucking hentai!

Granted, its illustrator was a renowned hentai artist, and although Kikyo Kushida was a vicious supporting villainess, her face and figure really were top-notch...

Faced with Kikyo Kushida's temptation, Yang Cheng ultimately let reason triumph over desire.

It wasn't that he was less of a man than an animal. Kikyo Kushida was simply too devious.

At most, his video could prove that Kikyo Kushida had framed him and expose her true nature.

But if he actually used it to threaten her into doing anything that crossed the line, that would be a genuine crime.

And given her personality, using her body to set a trap and get rid of Yang Cheng was absolutely something this girl could do!

Again, if this same scene had happened in a hentai anime, Yang Cheng probably wouldn't have faced any consequences at all.

After a few rounds of "deep and shallow" communication, he probably would have fucked her into submission.

But the point was that Classroom of the Elite was a mind-game anime. Almost every student here had a hundred schemes up their sleeve.

"I haven't decided what I want you to do yet. I'll tell you when I think of something.

And before you do anything, you'd better remember that I've got something on you."

Hearing his words, Kikyo Kushida spread her hands, looking disappointed. "How disappointing.

I thought you'd be desperate to throw yourself at me, Yang Cheng.

Is my body not attractive enough? Don't men like them big? I just went up another cup size last month, you know. Or am I not as pretty as that woman, Suzune Horikita?

If you're worried about Horikita finding out, it's fine. I can keep this a secret."

As Kikyo Kushida pressed her body against him, Yang Cheng didn't move away. After all, she was offering him this treat herself.

But he didn't take things any further, either, because he feared there was a trap in it.

After all, even getting a foot massage could suddenly turn into a rape accusation. He wouldn't be able to

handle that.

Finally, seeing that she'd tried every trick she had and given him plenty of free perks, yet Yang Cheng still wouldn't budge, Kikyo Kushida could only leave in a huff.

Yang Cheng had guessed correctly. Kikyo Kushida's perks certainly weren't free. If he'd crossed the line just now, she would have used that as leverage to threaten him.

Even if she didn't use it to get him expelled, she would have used that relationship to force Yang Cheng onto her side.
