6: Excuse me, this good-for-nothing is my fiancé.
Shangguan Xue's desperate efforts resulted in Qin Lang instantly leveling up while lying on the big bed in the dormitory.
This feeling was truly indescribable.
The next day arrived.
At Tiandu First Gene Academy, all freshmen were gathered in their respective cultivation areas, entering individual "biological energy capsules" filled with light blue nutrient solution.
This was a benefit from the academy.
With the major examination approaching, in order to ensure the students could be in the best state, the academy specially distributed a batch of high-purity biological energy to assist them in their final sprint for the Gene Lock.
Thousands of students were absorbing the energy ravenously, with every face filled with determination and longing.
Only Qin Lang was an exception.
He leaned against the comfortable inner wall of the energy capsule, eyes slightly closed, expression relaxed, as if he were soaking in a hot spring.
The System had already explicitly issued the highest directive—self-evolution is prohibited.
Therefore, while others were desperately competing, he could only pretend to work hard here, while actually "lying flat" with peace of mind.
Cultivate?
How tiring is it to Cultivate?
Nothing is as comfortable as lying down.
Just as Qin Lang was enjoying this rare peace, the personal terminal on his wrist suddenly vibrated.
A message was projected onto his retina.
The sender was: Bai Qianqian.
Seeing this name, Qin Lang's originally relaxed brows lightly furrowed.
Bai Qianqian: "Qin Lang, are you there?"
Bai Qianqian: "I know you are in the energy capsule, don't play dead."
Bai Qianqian: "I have recently reached a critical Bottleneck in breaking through the Gene Lock, and your portion of biological energy is very useful to me. Transfer it to me."
Three messages in a row, the tone was matter-of-fact, carrying a sense of condescending charity.
As if it were only natural for Qin Lang to sacrifice for her.
After a brief pause, the fourth message popped up immediately.
Bai Qianqian: "As long as you give me the energy, I can consider giving you another chance to pursue me."
Looking at this message, Qin Lang almost laughed in anger.
This woman was truly as confident as ever, or rather... narcissistic.
He had once mistakenly believed that three years ago, when his parents sacrificed themselves and he was at his lowest point in life, the person who kept sending messages to encourage him in the virtual community was Bai Qianqian.
For this reason, like a fool, he had fawned over her in every way, willingly acting as a "simp" for three years.
It wasn't until recently that he learned the truth from his good friend Gao Meng.
The person who had silently encouraged him from behind the scenes back then was not Bai Qianqian at all.
It was the campus belle, Su Muyue.
Bai Qianqian just happened to use an avatar and nickname similar to Su Muyue's, and enjoyed everything that should have belonged to Su Muyue with peace of mind.
After learning the truth, Qin Lang had never paid any attention to this "sea queen" who took his sacrifices for granted.
He turned to pursue the girl who had truly brought him warmth, Su Muyue.
And now, this woman actually still had the face to come looking for him?
And wanted his biological energy?
And give him a "chance"?
Qin Lang couldn't even be bothered to reply with a single word.
His long, slender fingers tapped lightly on the virtual panel, decisively deleting Bai Qianqian's contact information and adding her to the blacklist.
The whole process was smooth and fluid, without any hesitation.
"Damn! Brother Lang, awesome!"
In the energy capsule next to him, a burly, bear-like fat man witnessed this scene!
His good buddy Gao Meng excitedly slapped the capsule door, making a muffled sound.
"Wasting three years for such a green tea bitch, you finally figured it out, that's manly!"
Gao Meng gave Qin Lang a thumbs up.
Qin Lang shook his head helplessly.
Who hasn't been blind when they were young?
One hour later, the energy replenishment ended.
Students walked out of the energy capsules one after another, each full of energy, their aura much stronger than before.
As soon as Qin Lang came out, his path was blocked by an angry figure.
It was Bai Qianqian.
"Qin Lang! What do you mean by this?"
Bai Qianqian stood with her hands on her hips, her pretty face covered in frost.
"How dare you delete me from your friends list? And blacklist me?"
Qin Lang glanced at her as if looking at a stranger and turned to leave.
He really couldn't be bothered to waste another word on this kind of woman.
This act of ignoring her, however, completely broke Bai Qianqian's defenses.
She had always thought that Qin Lang's recent coldness towards her was just a game of playing hard to get, in order to attract her attention.
But now it seemed, he really didn't want to pay attention to her anymore!
How could she accept this?
A simp who had fawned over her for three years, just stopped fawning like that?
"Qin Lang, you stop right there!"
Bai Qianqian's shrill voice attracted the attention of everyone around.
She stepped forward a few paces, blocking Qin Lang's path again, her eyes filled with contempt and disdain.
"Who do you think you are? Aren't you just a piece of Gene trash at the second stage of Tempering?"
"Do you really think I don't know what you've been doing lately? Running off to pursue Su Muyue, that high-and-mighty campus belle?"
Her voice grew louder and louder, filled with vicious mockery.
"Go take a piss and look at yourself in the mirror! Are you worthy?"
"This is a classic case of a toad lusting after swan meat!"
"I'm telling you, a proud daughter of heaven like Su Muyue wouldn't fancy a piece of trash like you, even if she were blind!"
Around them, more and more students gathered to watch the spectacle, pointing at Qin Lang and whispering.
Faced with such vicious public abuse, Qin Lang's expression remained calm, without even a ripple.
He and Bai Qianqian were no longer people from the same world.
Arguing with a noisy ant would only lower his own level.
He turned around again, ready to leave.
However, just as he took a step.
A clear, pleasant, yet slightly cold voice suddenly rang out from behind the crowd.
"Sorry, the toad you're talking about is my Fiancé."
This voice was not loud, but it seemed to have a strange magic, instantly making the noisy crowd quiet down.
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice.
They saw the crowd automatically part to create a path, and a stunningly beautiful figure was slowly walking over.
The person who arrived was Su Muyue.
She was wearing the academy's white uniform today, her chestnut-colored long hair tied into a playful high ponytail, swaying gently with her footsteps.
The sunlight fell down, outlining her exquisite and perfect profile, her amber eyes clear as water, yet carrying a hint of unquestionable determination.
Under the astonished gaze of everyone, Su Muyue walked straight to Qin Lang's side.
Then, she made a move that made everyone's jaws drop to the floor.
She reached out her slender, jade-like hand and very naturally took Qin Lang's arm.
That intimate posture seemed as if it had been done a thousand times before.
"You..."
Bai Qianqian's pupils shrank sharply, almost unable to believe her own eyes.
Su Muyue did not look at her.
She just tilted her head slightly, lifted that sweet and cute campus belle face, and revealed a brilliant smile to Qin Lang that was enough to melt ice and snow.
Subsequently, she cast her cold gaze back onto Bai Qianqian, whose face had already turned pale.
Her voice clearly reached the ears of everyone present.
"Sorry, he is my Fiancé, not anyone's simp, and definitely not a toad."
Su Muyue held onto Qin Lang's arm, tightening her grip slightly, her entire delicate body almost pressing against him.
She could clearly feel the warm breath coming from Qin Lang, which made her small face turn slightly red, but her eyes became increasingly determined.
She looked at Bai Qianqian, whose expression was changing uncertainly, and said word by word, gently yet firmly.
"And, love is a two-way journey, not one side's limitless extraction and the other side's humble begging."
"He is very good and deserves the best of everything."
These words were like the loudest slaps, one after another, fiercely striking Bai Qianqian's face.
Su Muyue's intimate actions, her declaration of ownership, and those gentle yet heart-piercing words...
All of this was like the sharpest knives, cutting Bai Qianqian's pitiful self-esteem into pieces!
"Pfft—"
Bai Qianqian only felt a sweetness in her throat, unable to catch her breath, and her pretty face instantly turned the color of a pig's liver.
Looking at the two of them in front of her, who were as well-matched as a celestial couple, amidst the mixed gazes of shock, mockery, and pity from the surrounding crowd, she only felt the world spinning and all her dignity lost.
