Transmigrated into the School Idol’s Love Rival and Lover

Chapter 11 - Turned the Male Lead Green (11)

Early morning.

The summer willows were dark green. As a gentle gust of wind blew by, the sweet cries of orioles were carried through the school courtyard with the scent of willows.

Ruan Yan sat steadfastly in Senior High 1, Class 9, his slender waist pencil straight.

He quietly wondered how a normal girlfriend would make it up to their boyfriend when they’d done something guilty.

It should probably be to coax them?

The same reasoning could be applied that if a girl was acting abnormally nice to their boyfriends, then the guy would first look up to see if their heads had turned green or not.

Ruan Yan had no master and had to figure out these tricks for himself. Now, he carefully observed the door, waiting until Chu Nan’s self-representative height (1) appeared before immediately rushing up to welcome him with a soft voice, “Chu Nan, you’re so early today.”

Chu Nan’s gaze turned warmer when he saw him, “Yan Yan, you’re also very early.”

Early in the morning, Chu Nan’s voice was already slightly hoarse because he saw that Ruan Yan was wearing another green butterfly bow today, appearing fresh and joyful.

Ruan Yan’s peach blossom eyes curved into crescents. Usually when he didn’t smile, he appeared as cold as the stars in the winter sky. When he did smile, it appeared as resplendent as the moon.

“What are you holding Chu Nan? I’ll help you hold it.”

Chu Nan allowed him to take it. It was the breakfast he’d prepared for him in the first place.

Conveniently, he also asked, “Why are you taking so much initiative today? Even waiting for me at the door.”

…It must be because she’d done something to let him down.

Ruan Yan’s face turned as red as a juicy peach, and sweet-talked Chu Nan falsely, “Because you’re super handsome today.”

His voice was extremely quiet, but Chu Nan didn't think much about it because he thought he was being shy.

His heart somersaulted from the praise and he looked deeply at Ruan Yan, deliberately teasing him, “Where am I handsome?”

Chu Nan thought that the embarrassed Little Psycho definitely wouldn’t reply.

But unexpectedly, after a moment of conflict, in order to rouse Chu Nan’s suspicion, Ruan Yan completely let go of his cold and mighty character, embarrassedly saying, “Eyebrows are handsome, eyes are handsome, legs are handsome… Chu Nan…”

He pretended to choke out a sob, “What am I to do? I can’t find any part of you that’s not handsome! You’re so mean ah~ deliberately making it difficult for me.”

Chu Nan: …Who could shoulder this blame?

In all of Qin Lin High, no one could find someone who was better than him at acting spoilt.

He took a deep breath in. This was the classroom, he couldn’t let this little demon do anything.

“Yan Yan.” Chu Nan said with some suspicion, “You put honey on mouth today?”

Ruan Yan picked out a strip of noodle to eat, “Isn’t it all because the noodles you brought are so tasty that they’re smeared with honey? I ate it, so it got stuck on my lips.”

Chu Nan turned muddleheaded from praise. He thought that there was something wrong, but looking into Ruan Yan’s big, innocent eyes, he still couldn’t tell what exactly was wrong.

Thinking for a long time, Chu Nan probed questioningly, “Yan Yan, your butterfly bow is very nice, can you wear it every day from now on?”

Chu Nan recalled that after he’d exposed his interest towards butterfly bows, Yan Yan had very viciously stuffed the butterfly bow back into her bag.

The smile on Ruan Yan’s lips stiffened. What kind of hobby did Chu Nan have? He just wouldn’t let the butterfly bow go?!

He resisted the urge to flip face with Chu Nan and smiled like a tender peach blossom, “I’ll wear it as long as you like it~”

He didn’t dare to me-me-da to Chu Nan’s face, so he used his hands to make a heart.

The Chu Nan who wasn’t scolded, but rather given an enthusiastic reply: …

He was quite happy in his heart, but there was just a niggling doubt telling him that there was something wrong.

By logic, Yan Yan should have been extremely fierce towards him.

Only after seeing an extra hint of pondering flash across Chu Nan’s eyes did Ruan Yan stop with his act, waiting for class to start without a worry.

Very quickly, it was Maths.

Because Ruan Yan only got four marks and was called to the staffroom yesterday, his homework was the first that was checked by Teacher Zhang.

Ruan Yan handed the paper to him and Teacher Zhang carefully matched it with the answers before nodding, “Completely correct, but your method for solving question 21 was not the method I taught you yesterday during class. This method is quite good, very clear and easy to understand. Did you do it yourself?”

“N-No…” Ruan Yan acted just like an actual school dreg, even taking a strange glance at Chu Nan before quietly saying, “I used a reading machine, but, but I really am trying my best to learn.”

Teacher Zhang frowned and still wanted to say something when Chu Nan butted in to say, “Teacher, you didn’t say that we couldn’t use tools to help us learn.”

It became even more inappropriate for Teacher Zhang to say anything, thus he waved his hand and let Ruan Yan sit back down.

For the entire lesson, Teacher Zhang re-explained the solution for question 21 and specially praised the ingenious method on Ruan Yan’s paper, even adding that the people who used this method were usually those above 20 years old in the high-level education system.

Ruan Yan edged towards the end of the lesson. He didn’t know if Chu Nan understood such an obvious hint.

According to Ran Yan’s grades, there was no way that she could finish the entire paper.

Regrettably, Chu Nan seemed as if he’d never even thought about such a matter.

Ruan Yan became slightly anxious. Waiting until lunch, he acted spoilt and said that he wanted to go out to eat.

Chu Nan took him out. After the two had ordered their dishes, Ruan Yan offered to go buy ice-blocks.

He didn’t wait for Chu Nan to agree before running out like the wind. After leaving Chu Nan’s line of sight, he took out his phone and sent another text message.

Chu Nan heard the phone ring and frowned. How did Yan Yan forget her phone?

He prepared to help Ruan Yan keep the phone, but upon picking it up and looking at it, he found that there were two unread text messages.

The first was: How was today’s Maths class? You shouldn’t have been scolded right?

He couldn’t see the second. Chu Nan was expressionless. The sender hadn’t been saved as a contact and only showed a string of numbers. But the affection within the words could clearly be seen.

Chu Nan tapped into the second message: The maths questions are very easy. You have a lot of talent… From Ruan Yan.

Chu Nan gripped the phone tightly, his face becoming frighteningly dark.

It just so happened that Ruan Yan came back at this time holding two ice blocks in his hand. Jumping onto Chu Nan, he acted spoilt, “Chu Nan, quickly praise me! I bought you your favourite peach flavour.”

He couldn’t help provoking Chu Nan due to his task, so he was being extremely nice to Chu Nan now to make up for it.

Ruan Yan wanted to open the ice block wrapper, but then seemingly thinking of something, he gingerly handed it over to Chu Nan, “Chu Nan… People (2) can’t rip it open. You help me.”

“Yan Yan.” Chu Nan’s voice was extremely suppressed, “Why are you so easily tricked?”

Ruan Yan was dumbfounded for a moment. Chu Nan pulled out his phone, “Is he trying to get close to you by tutoring you?”

He was discovered.

According to the plot, he couldn't allow Chu Nan give him the cold shoulder yet.

Ruan Yan carefully held out the ice block, his voice sounding as if he was about to cry, “Chu Nan… Teacher Zhang said that he’ll call my parents if I don’t make this month’s average. Ruan Yan is our grade’s number one, he said that he would help me…”

“I know that you don’t like him, so I didn’t dare to tell you… I was scared that you would be angry, so…”

“So you tried to gain my favour today? Say I was handsome?” Chu Nan was expressionless, “If he didn’t tutor you then I wouldn’t be handsome?”

“No, definitely not.” Ruan Yan shook his head, “You’ve always been handsome. You’re the most handsome. Handsome without rebuttal!”

Chu Nan: “Say it again.”

Ruan Yan: …What kind of disease was this?

Ruan Yan was usually cold and didn’t speak much. Now, he was forced to softly say, “You’re the most handsome. Chu Nan is the most handsome.”

Just as he finished, Chu Nan got up, “You eat first. I’m going to go look for someone. After you’re finished, quickly come back to school.”

Chu Nan couldn’t even wait a single moment to make Ruan Yan pay for his actions.

He called Ju Ping and couldn’t help but swear, “Where did you say that that bastard Ruan Yan usually was?”

Ju Ping replied, “Ruan Yan doesn’t have to attend class because his grades are good. He usually stays in the library or the science block. Brother Chu, what happened?”

Chu Nan had already hung up.

He searched from place to place. On the other hand, Ruan Yan also knew that Chu Nan had definitely gone to search for him and could only rush back to school, going straight for the toilets and hurriedly changing his clothes.

In a fury, Chu Nan would definitely walk very fast and Ruan Yan could only be faster than him. Under extreme exercise, he was tired to the point of gasping.

His legs had even gone soft. As soon as he came out of the toilet, he was met with Chu Nan’s angry face.

Chu Nan’s eyes flashed with a cold light, frigidly asking, “Poor kidney?”

Ruan Yan immediately recovered his icy prince look, “At least it’s better than someone with four oversized limbs and a simple brain.”

Chu Nan didn’t argue with him, “You tricked Yan Yan into tutoring her?”

“Chu Nan, why are you saying tricked?” Ruan Yan’s peach blossom eyes also froze over with a layer of ice, not easily provokable, “Ran Yan’s grades are bad, my grades are good. I’m being considerate by helping her. Why does it sound so bad coming from your mouth?”

“There are so many people with bad grades in this school. I haven’t seen you go tutor every one of them.” Chu Nan’s voice turned louder and louder, “Do you think that people aren’t aware of what kind of thought’s you’re harbouring?”

Ruan Yan was calm from start to end, “A good young man is pursuing the lady he likes. I’ve never hidden my intentions, on the contrary, it’s you who’s acting up. Ruan Yan’s already agreed, so on what basis do you have to stop it?”

“On the basis that she likes me!” Chu Nan blurted out.

​

“Oh?” Ruan Yan glanced over him, “Are you sure?”

“Hehe.” Chu Nan let out a cold laugh and took out a recording without another word.

“You’re the most handsome~ Chu Nan is the most handsome~ No rebuttals accepted~” (3)

A voice that sounded disgustingly sweet flooded out from the phone. Ruan Yan almost became sluggish. He… Why did his voice sound so spoilt?

The feeling was like being executed in person.

Chu Nan saw that Ruan Yan was not speaking and thought that he’d suffered a severe attack. His lips curved into a cold smile. He’d even learnt the trick of using his phone to record from this guy over here!

“What? Have you given up?” Chu Nan mocked. “I understand. So it’s a love rival.” Ruan Yan recovered his reason, and softly said, “Ran Yan likes you now, but it doesn’t mean it’ll be the same in the future. I can help her with her studies, but what can you do? It’s fair competition.”

“Are you worthy of competing with me?” Chu Nan coldly laughed as his fist split open the air and went towards Ruan Yan’s face.

“If there’s a second time, I’ll break your bones.” Chu Nan’s fist stopped precisely half a centimetre in front of Ruan Yan’s nose.

If it wasn’t that he feared implicating Ran Yan, Chu Nan would’ve landed that fist a long time ago.

He withdrew his fist with ease. No wonder no one dared to disturb him.

If it were someone else, then they might’ve already started crying, but Ruan Yan’s expression remained cold from start to end, as if he wasn’t scared at all.

In the end, Chu Nan still decided to give him some punishment and pressed down on his shoulder, pushing him against the wall. Ruan Yan went with the flow and took a step back, his foot hitting the wall with a “pai”.

Chu Nan said, “No one has ever escaped from me. You’re the first. If you touch my girlfriend again, then don’t blame me if you have no way to sit the university examination.”

Ruan Yan’s face was cold. His first thought was: no shame, who was your girlfriend? There was obviously no such status ma~

His second thought was: I shower every day; touch myself every day. I can touch anywhere I want, what objections can you have?

He didn’t say anything, fully displaying the stubbornness of the villain. Only when Chu Nan left did Ruan Yan lower his gaze, a single tear expressionlessly sliding down his face.

This wasn’t Ruan Yan feeling sad. He very rarely cried, but as long as he felt pain, he would cry uncontrollably. It was very shameful for a man.

Ruan Yan’s tears were uncontrollable, his humiliation turning into resentment for Chu Nan. He had to repay this debt!

He took out Ran Yan’s phone and gave Chu Nan a call. Chu Nan immediately picked up, “Yan Yan?”

Ruan Yan didn’t speak, softly sobbing. Only when Chu Nan was so worried that his heart burnt up did he say, “You left me alone… I’m ignoring you now.”

Chu Nan felt as if his heart had been carved up by a knife and hurriedly asked for forgiveness.

Ruan Yan’s tears became even more uncontrollable, coldly thinking, didn’t you want to beat me up? Why don’t you try ah~ You beat me up and you’ll still be the one comforting me.

Chu Nan, this school tyrant bullied him. There would be no end to this.

Translator’s Notes:

(1) He’s so tall that someone can tell that it’s him just by his height alone. Thus, the height is representative of himself

(2) It’s the same as in the previous chapter where Ruan Yan addresses himself as “renjia”, which is directly translated into people or person, in order to act spoilt. It’s just that it sounds a bit weird in english…

(3) The original words in the ‘recording’ didn’t match up with the ones said in the scene before… I also changed the words slightly

Note:

Ahaha... sorry guys, just realised that I wrote the wrong subtitle for chapter 10. The correct subtitle is meant to be "Female lead makes an appearance", I'm fixing it now, hahaha (〃▽〃)
