The Heartthrob Protagonist Just Wants To Monopolize Me Chapter 14.2

As a result, he had just sat down when he saw a classmate walk up to him.

Ji Mingxia looked up at him, “Zhu Ming, what’s wrong?”

Zhu Ming’s expression squirmed a little as he stood in place for a long time, finally sitting beside Ji Mingxia and leaning close to him to whisper, “Brother Mingxia, tell me the truth, is it true that your academic performance has improved because you have asked Yu Ning for advice?”

“Huh?” Ji Mingxia was stunned.

Too many things had happened today, and he still had Lin Siyun and the ring on his mind. So Ji Mingxia first froze for a moment before he recalled the morning incident.

The cow had already blown out, so Ji Mingxia couldn’t take it back. He could either acknowledge study or love between him and Yu Ning, and of course, Ji Mingxia chose study!

“Of course, you can see my grades, I haven’t improved for so long and I rushed up this time. I’ve been getting closer to Yu Ning these days, and I was asking him questions the last time you bumped into me. So yeah, it’s all Yu Ning’s credit.” Ji Mingxia bragged at sea.

He was just taking the credit for his improved academic performance and giving Yu Ning a halo. He told the small lie without any psychological pressure.

The more Zhu Ming listened to Ji Mingxia’s bragging, the brighter his eyes became. He finally pressed Ji Mingxia’s arm and said, “Brother Mingxia, take me with you, I want to improve my grades too!”

“Good, good. If you don’t know any questions, let me take a look.” Ji Mingxia said.

But Zhu Ming waved his hand, “No need for you to teach me. You’re still climbing yourself. Take me to Yu Ning so he can teach me.”

“Huh?” Ji Mingxia was really shocked this time, “Yu Ning teach you…are you sure?”

Zhu Ming, however, acted as if he hadn’t heard Ji Mingxia’s rhetorical question. He glanced nervously behind him and frantically poked Ji Mingxia with his finger, “Yu Ning is here, Yu Ning is here!!!”

Ji Mingxia followed Zhu Ming’s gaze and saw Yu Ning walking in through the back door of the classroom.

As if noticing Ji Mingxia and Zhu Ming’s gazes, Yu Ning raised his eyes and glanced in Ji Mingxia’s direction.

Ji Mingxia turned his head away in a flash, leaving only the back of his head for Yu Ning.

“Brother Mingxia, go, hurry up.” Zhu Ming insisted.

Ji Mingxia simply wanted to cry. He hadn’t explained the matter of Lin Siyun clearly yet, he didn’t want to face Yu Ning so early ah.

Ji Mingxia couldn’t help but advise, “Don’t you dislike Yu Ning… why have you suddenly changed your mind?”

“It can’t be helped, the college entrance exams are coming up in two days. If you can go and ask Yu Ning for advice for the sake of your academic performance, so can we.” Zhu Ming said, “I have this score, up or down, when the time comes, can be on all purely depends on luck.”

“In just a few days, you’ve been brought up by Yu Ning and surged to second in the class. I’m not asking to have your talent, one or two extra points are enough for me to change my life!”

Zhu Ming begged, “Please, Brother Mingxia, I don’t dare go to Yu Ning alone, he looks too scary ……”

But I don’t want to go to him either! 

Ji Mingxia wailed in his heart.

Not only because of what happened with the Lin Siyun issue, but also because his grades had improved completely on his own. He had never asked Yu Ning for advice.

But he had already said that in the morning. Ji Mingxia even noticed that most of the people in the class were watching for movements on his side.

With the entrance exams just around the corner, what could be more exciting than an increase in marks?

Even if it was someone as terrifying as Yu Ning, everyone couldn’t help but be moved in droves.

Under Zhu Ming’s repeated urging, Ji Mingxia led the latter towards Yu Ning’s seat as the class watched.

“Yu Ning, ah, Zhu Ming has a… oh… oh it’s “we”. We have a question that we want to ask you. Can you tell us your solution to the problem?” Halfway through Ji Mingxia’s sentence, Zhu Ming kept poking him in the back, and Ji Mingxia could only reluctantly change his words.

As he spoke, he frantically winked at Yu Ning.

Yu Ning looked at Ji Mingxia and Zhu Ming for a moment, and under Ji Mingxia’s explicit hints, he looked at Ji Mingxia and nodded slightly, “Okay.”

Ji Mingxia breathed a sigh of relief and sat down beside Yu Ning.

He and Yu Ning had just gone through a dangerous situation together in the morning, and his movements were incredibly natural.

However, in the eyes of others, it had a very frightening effect. Since Ji Mingxia was already sitting, Zhu Ming naturally could not remain standing.

After dilly-dallying for a long time, Zhu Ming finally chose to sit next to Ji Mingxia. That way, he was a little further away from Yu Ning, but could still hear his voice.

During Yu Ning’s lecture, Zhu Ming kept his head down and listened vertically, not daring to look at Yu Ning’s face.

On the contrary, Ji Mingxia listened very carefully and accidentally discovered that Yu Ning’s solution to this question was very different from his.

Ji Mingxia had taken the college entrance exam once and had an advantage in predicting the questions for this year’s exam. His grades were okay, so he quickly discussed it with Yu Ning.

Zhu Ming, who was on the side, listened with trepidation at first, but slowly realized that Yu Ning and Ji Mingxia were discussing the topics. If he didn’t look at Yu Ning, he was actually no different from ordinary people if he just listened to their voices.

Gradually, Zhu Ming also became absorbed in listening and eventually grasped Ji Mingxia’s and Yu Ning’s discussion. He even cited one question to clarify the idea of another.

When someone is afraid, they have unlimited potential!

Zhu Ming, who had listened for more than half an hour, expressed great satisfaction and happily went back to his seat.

Ji Mingxia was stirred up by the discussion, and he stayed sitting next to Yu Ning to answer the questions.

During this time, other students saw Ji Mingxia sitting next to Yu Ning, open and unconcerned, and then looked at Zhu Ming’s appearance of having gained a lot, and they could not help but feel moved.

Although Yu Ning looked intimidating, when discussing questions, he was quite normal.

Not only was there no loss in just listening in, but there was even the possibility of improving their marks. Seeing as the college entrance exams are just around the corner, who would not want to try such a good thing?

As for those horrible rumors about Yu Ning, Ji Mingxia still looked fine.

The scales in everyone’s minds kept swinging, and in the end, some of Ji Mingxia’s roommates couldn’t resist and gathered around.

There were a lot of people watching, and the remaining people had nothing to worry about, so they came over boldly.

“Yu Ning, Ji Mingxia said you helped him improve his grades and got second in the class. Is that true?”

“You’ve been number one in the whole school since elementary school. Is there any secret to it?”

“The college entrance exams are around the corner, and Ji Mingxia said you bet on the questions very accurately. What are your thoughts on the college entrance exam?”

Yu Ning smiled and turned his head to look at Ji Mingxia.

Ji Mingxia gave a dry laugh and hurriedly said to everyone: “Yu Ning gave me some bets on the questions, I made a table and I’ll send it to the group later to share ah …… But it’s only a personal bet, after all, and it’s not guaranteed, so don’t get your hopes up. Relax, you’ll definitely do well… …”

With Ji Mingxia’s manoeuvring, he finally persuaded everyone to return to their original positions, leaving one or two who still wanted to listen sitting nearby.

The whole thing was started by Ji Mingxia, so he naturally could not leave the room. Everyone still had some wariness toward Yu Ning, and they were not familiar with each other. Ji Mingxia sat next to Yu Ning the whole time, playing an auxiliary role. He sometimes helped to communicate, and sometimes revitalized the scene.

In the blink of an eye, the day was over. Many people thanked Ji Mingxia when the evening study session was over. Their eyes moved to Yu Ning with some evasiveness, but they eventually thanked him.

With the college entrance exams just around the corner, the three years of high school were coming to an end and they would soon be going their separate ways.

No one expected that they would not be able to resist seeking Yu Ning’s help during these last two days.

But whether this impromptu teaching was useful or not, Yu Ning did not hesitate to give advice and shared a lot of insights throughout the day.

As Ji Mingxia watched everyone pack up their textbooks and leave, he also whispered to Yu Ning, “Thank you.”

Yu Ning turned his head to look at him.

Ji Mingxia folded his hands and looked at Yu Ning flatteringly, “For not exposing my lies and spending so much time helping them with questions ……”

Ji Mingxia knew that with Yu Ning’s character, he was too lazy to talk to these people about the questions, so he sat next to Yu Ning to warm up the atmosphere. But without Yu Ning’s cooperation, it would have been Ji Mingxia who ended up being embarrassed.

Yu Ning looked at the exercise book and didn’t say anything, but Ji Mingxia could still feel that he was in a good mood.

Thinking about the scene just now, Ji Mingxia could not help but feel emotional.

Everyone was influenced by the rumours, fearing Yu Ning and refusing to get in touch with him.

But in reality, if only one person had taken the initiative to lead, perhaps the outcome would have been completely different.

Under the overwhelming pressure of the entrance exams, and with Ji Mingxia in the middle, several people eventually overcame their fears and realized that Yu Ning was just an ordinary person.

An ordinary person who had grown up and suffered constantly.

If only he had transmigrated a little earlier.

If this opportunity had appeared a little earlier, perhaps Yu Ning’s childhood would have been a lot happier.

Ji Mingxia, who was lost in his thoughts, didn’t even notice Yu Ning’s gaze, which didn’t rest on the exercise book at all, but on their hands that were touching.

When Yu Ning was growing up, no one wanted to be his friend, let alone be a desk mate, so he always sat at the desk by himself.

For the sake of the discussion, Ji Mingxia sat next to him and never moved afterwards, not even changing places when class started.

With only two days left before the college entrance exam, the teacher did not want to put too much pressure on everyone, and the class was free for everyone to study on their own.

So Ji Mingxia had unconsciously sat next to Yu Ning from noon until now.

The two boys were sitting at the same table, both with long arms and legs, so it was inevitable that they would touch each other.

Ji Mingxia was a carefree person, his mind was full of questions, while Yu Ning was answering with other things on his mind.

Ji Mingxia touched his elbow, Ji Mingxia’s hair brushed his shoulder, Ji Mingxia’s knee touched his leg…

On the way back, Ji Mingxia saw that Yu Ning was in a good mood and cautiously asked, “Yu Ning, are you okay with……everyone coming to you?”

Yu Ning glanced at Ji Mingxia and lowered his eyes, “Mm.”

Seeing this, Ji Mingxia only felt a sullen and sour feeling in his heart.

Sure enough, even though everyone treated him with cold violence like that, in Yu Ning’s heart, he still longed for the camaraderie of his classmates!

Ji Mingxia immediately said, “Then if more people come for help tomorrow, let’s do it together.”

Yu Ning hooked the corners of his lips and said good-naturedly, “Okay.”
