Top-Tier Superpower Student-Chapter 347 - 319 Troubled Girl

"Mr. Lin is fine then. Can I ask you a few questions, Mr. Lin?"

Seeing the look on Chen Yuanyuan’s face, she obviously didn’t think much of Lin Tian.

"Of course, ask away."

Lin Tian didn’t take Chen Yuanyuan seriously either. What could a little girl like her do, anyway? He didn’t understand why Bu Mengting would be so afraid of her.

Chen Yuanyuan waved Lin Tian over, leading him into her room and pulling out a test paper.

"I can’t do any of the questions on here."

Lin Tian glanced over the paper. The difficulty level was average; if Chen Yuanyuan couldn’t do it, just how was she getting by in school?

Given that he was there to tutor, Lin Tian’s patience was fairly good.

He started with the first problem, explaining it to Chen Yuanyuan. He had thought she wouldn’t understand anything, but as he explained, it seemed she understood everything.

After going through five or six problems, Lin Tian stopped and, with a frown, turned to Chen Yuanyuan.

"Little girl, you’re doing this on purpose, aren’t you? You know how to do these problems, don’t you?"

"Yeah, I know how to do them," Chen Yuanyuan admitted honestly.

"Then why have me explain them to you?"

"Because I don’t want to do them. They’re too brain-consuming. Besides, aren’t you here to teach? If I didn’t give you something to do, wouldn’t you be out of a job? If you’re out of a job, you won’t make any money, will you? I’m doing this for your own good."

Her words left Lin Tian feeling muddled. He knew it was twisted logic, yet it seemed to make some kind of sense.

Now he finally understood why Bu Mengting said Chen Yuanyuan was a problematic child. The girl wasn’t bad at studying; it was her attitude that was the problem.

"Chen Yuanyuan, I think we need to have an honest discussion. Do you realize who your mother is spending so much money on a tutor for?"

"For me," Chen Yuanyuan answered seriously, as if she understood all these principles.

"Then why, when you’re clearly capable of doing well, do you pretend to be like this?"

"Being a good student is tiring, you know? Plus, you get ostracized by your classmates. The top students in our class, the academic stars, basically have no friends. And I, such a smart person, I definitely don’t want to be one of them," said Chen Yuanyuan, her lips curving into a sweet smile.

What on earth was this girl thinking about?

"You can’t just aim to be the worst, can you? At the very least, you should strive to keep your grades above average so that your mother won’t worry about you, right?"

"What’s wrong with being the worst? The teachers don’t pay attention to me then. They wouldn’t care what I do."

It looked like Chen Yuanyuan wasn’t much younger than him. How could they think so differently?

Lin Tian felt a profound generational gap.

"Don’t you want others to pay attention to you?"

"No, I don’t. Besides, all my friends are poor students. If my grades improve, they won’t hang out with me anymore."

Lin Tian finally understood; Chen Yuanyuan didn’t want to improve her grades mainly because she was worried about losing her friends.

"Have you ever thought about whether your so-called friends truly consider you a friend? Haven’t you ever considered making friends with some of the top students after becoming one of them?"

"I’ve never thought about it. Those academic stars are so boring. All they do is bury their noses in books. How could they compare to my friends now?"

No sooner had Chen Yuanyuan finished speaking, her phone rang. She immediately answered it.

"What’s up, Xiaohong?"

"Is your mom out, Yuanyuan?" A crisp female voice came through the phone, seemingly close to Chen Yuanyuan.

"Yeah, she is."

"Then come out and play."

Chen Yuanyuan sneakily glanced at Lin Tian beside her, and immediately, Lin Tian gave her an OK sign. He never believed that being a student meant constant studying. It was about studying at the right time and burying oneself in books when necessary; that was the balanced way to do it.

With Lin Tian’s approval, Chen Yuanyuan promptly accepted her classmate’s invitation.

"Mr. Lin, you’re so nice. Want me to take you with me?"

Her good friend Ma Xiaohong had called to invite Chen Yuanyuan to go roller skating with her. Chen Yuanyuan hadn’t been out to play for a long time and was naturally very happy.

At that moment, Lin Tian was zoning out.

"Random mission triggered. Help Chen Yuanyuan escape from the trap set by her ’good friend.’ Successful completion will reward two Supernatural Points; failure will result in a loss of two Supernatural Points."

A mission had been triggered! From the looks of it, Chen Yuanyuan was definitely being duped by her ’good friend’ Ma Xiaohong this time.

"Mr. Lin?"

Chen Yuanyuan noticed Lin Tian suddenly became lost in thought and gave his shoulder a push.

"Ah, I’m a teacher. If I were to go with you guys, could you still have fun? You go on by yourself." Since a mission had been triggered, there was definitely trouble ahead for Chen Yuanyuan. Lin Tian decided to follow her, but he didn’t plan on telling her. He wanted Chen Yuanyuan to see clearly the kind of friends she was making so that she could learn her lesson.

"Mr. Lin, you are the best!" Chen Yuanyuan was so excited she hugged Lin Tian and kissed him on the forehead, then bounced off to change clothes.

"Are students these days really this open?" Lin Tian touched his forehead and broke into a slight smile.

Soon after Chen Yuanyuan left the house, Lin Tian also headed out, quietly tailing her. Preoccupied with the thoughts of going out to play, Chen Yuanyuan could never guess she was being followed.

"Yuanyuan! Over here, over here!"

Chen Yuanyuan quickly met up with her classmate and good friend Ma Xiaohong. Ma Xiaohong was a genuine poor student, but she dressed up well and often invited Chen Yuanyuan out to play. Chen Yuanyuan considered Ma Xiaohong her dear sister.

"Xiaohong went to skate on dry land,"

"What’s the fun in that? Yuanyuan, today I’ll take you to do something exciting,"

"Ah, something exciting? What are we going to play?"

"Just follow me, it’s not just exciting, you can also make money,"

Chen Yuanyuan was immediately tempted. Although her family was well-off, her pocket money was fixed each month. Based on her and Ma Xiaohong’s daily frivolities, the allowance was somewhat insufficient.

Without asking any further, she followed Ma Xiaohong right away.

Soon, the two girls arrived at a very secretive billiard room. As soon as they entered, a youth with a pierced ear and red hair came up to greet them.

"Xiaohong, why did you come so late?"

While talking, he grabbed Ma Xiaohong’s butt, and not only did Ma Xiaohong not get angry, she even let out a flirtatious laugh and leaned against the red-haired youth.

The red-haired youth was not just grabbing all over Ma Xiaohong’s body, but also staring at Chen Yuanyuan’s chest.

Chen Yuanyuan felt something was not quite right; that red-haired youth didn’t seem like a good person at all.

"Xiaohong, I—I have something to take care of, maybe I should go first."

"Don’t go, little beauty. You’ve come all this way, why leave now?" Ma Xiaohong didn’t utter a word, but the red-haired youth reached out and grabbed Chen Yuanyuan’s wrist.

"What’s the rush, Yuanyuan? Let me tell you, there’s a good opportunity today. You won’t have to do anything but keep Brother Red Hair’s friend company playing billiards, and you can make five hundred in one day."

Chen Yuanyuan was not brainless. In fact, she was very clever. She knew that just keeping someone company while playing billiards wouldn’t earn her five hundred in a day.

"I really have things to do."

"What, not giving face to Brother Red Hair, is that it?"

Red Hair immediately lost his temper and squeezed harder on her wrist. Chen Yuanyuan’s wrist felt like it was clamped by iron pincers.

Chen Yuanyuan’s eyebrows furrowed slightly, but she didn’t give in.

"Xiaohong, please, just let me go."

"Don’t be ungrateful, Yuanyuan. I buy you cold drinks and beverages every day. I bring you here to make some money today and you’re unwilling?" Ma Xiaohong’s face also darkened.

"Haven’t I bought things for you too?"

"Who has bought more often, me or you? You think my house mines gold? The money I have is earned by myself. I bring you here to earn some money today, and you’re unwilling, what’s up with that?"

"Xiaohong, I beg you, just let me go."

Chen Yuanyuan regretted ever becoming "sisters" with Ma Xiaohong.

"Xiaohong, looks like your little sister here is being unappreciative. Step aside, let Brother Red Hair teach her a lesson."

On hearing this, Ma Xiaohong glared at Chen Yuanyuan.

"You’d better be obedient, Yuanyuan, or you’ll regret it."

As Ma Xiaohong stepped back, Red Hair looked at Chen Yuanyuan ferociously. Suddenly, he moved his arm and slapped toward Chen Yuanyuan.

Seeing Red Hair’s motion, Chen Yuanyuan instinctively closed her eyes.

But after waiting for what seemed like forever, her face did not feel the searing pain. Had Red Hair given up?

She opened one eye a crack and saw a tall figure had appeared in front of her. At that moment, this tall figure was firmly gripping Red Hair’s swinging arm.

Red Hair’s face was beet-red, trying to slap Chen Yuanyuan. However, he was unable to move an inch.

"Who the hell are you to meddle in my business!"

Red Hair glared at Lin Tian. Even though Lin Tian was surprisingly strong, Red Hair was not intimidated since this was Red Hair’s turf.

"I’ve gotten involved, what are you going to do about it?"

Lin Tian applied more force and threw Red Hair out, who flew three or four meters through the air before crashing heavily onto the ground.

Red Hair scrambled up from the floor, his mouth bloody from having fallen face-first and knocking out two teeth.

"You brat, dare to hit me, don’t think you can leave today!"

His speech was slurred as he spoke, and afterwards, he ran back into the billiard room.

Lin Tian turned to Ma Xiaohong, who immediately shouted,

"This has nothing to do with me!"

Then she also ran into the billiard room.

"Mr. Lin, how come you’re here?" Chen Yuanyuan was not dull and immediately guessed that Lin Tian might have followed her all the way here.

Lin Tian patted Chen Yuanyuan’s head. "Your mom has entrusted you to me, so I’m responsible for you. Don’t worry, with me here, nobody can hurt you."

"Mr. Lin, you’re so cool! But, since you hit Red Hair, shouldn’t we run now?"

"Run? Why would we run? They’ve bullied you, and I haven’t settled the score with them yet,"

Lin Tian had no intention of running away. He hadn’t had enough fun from the altercation earlier and hoped Red Hair wouldn’t disappoint him and would bring some tougher guys.

Seeing Lin Tian’s confident demeanor, Chen Yuanyuan, who was initially a bit scared, felt no fear anymore.
