Xiao Qin kept pestering me about whose underwear I was wearing on my head. I insisted that I was filming a promotional video with Director Cao and the underwear were only props.

She was paranoid and refused to believe me, until I threatened her by saying she would no longer be my girlfriend if she keeps asking anymore questions.

I had to endure the various rumors spreading around the school while trying to provide explanations to as many people as possible. This Tuesday was the most unendurable day I have experienced.

In particular, due to the many misunderstandings, I feel like my reputation in the class leader’s eyes has fallen below zero. So, I got out some of the coupons Xu JinSheng gave me for the dojang and asked the class leader if she was interested in Taekwondo.

“This dojang is owned by the family of the guy who filmed the promotional video with me.” I blabbered, “Class leader, if you want to join the criminal police division, it would be advantageous to learn some Taekwondo.”

The class leader glared at me. She must have not liked it when I try to bribe her.

“I don’t like to fight. Besides, we’re currently in the age of firearms.”

Are you already determined to be a marksman? Do you not place an importance on close-quartered combat because you think you would get assigned a gun and one hit KO people even at close range?

It’s kind of like Ai Mi’s bodyguard, Vasya, who killed 6 of his colleagues with a gun for humiliating him. It seems like the ‘Katyusha’ nickname Ai Mi gave her actually might be pretty fitting.

“But there are times when firearms aren’t reliable.” I persuaded her, “What if it rains and the gunpowder got wet?”

“What time period are you talking about?” The class leader asked in return, “The Napoleonic era?”

I replied abashedly: “No one’s using these coupons and they’re almost expired…”

“Stop using the expiry date to trick me.” The class leader got a bit upset, “Last time you already tricked me with a nearly expired coupon, do you think I would fall for the same trick?”

Why did you say I tricked you? I only brought you along to have a meal, it’s not like I tricked you into booking a hotel room together…

“Um, class leader, since you don’t really need Taekwondo to improve your stamina, what about Shu Zhe?”

The class leader hesitated for a bit, “Are you saying he should learn Taekwondo?”

“That’s right.” I emphasized my statements as I saw a weak point to attack, “Doesn’t Shu Zhe like Korean culture? He might like Taekwondo since it originates from Korea. If he trains in Taekwondo, his PE grades will also definitely improve.”

The class leader sank into deep thought.

“Won’t you get injured if you practice Taekwondo?”

“No, you won’t.” I guaranteed her without an ounce of basis, “Taekwondo actually has weak attack power. Besides, all beginners wear a full suit of protective gear, so nothing bad would happen to Shu Zhe.”

Though, I’m not going to mention which ‘weak’ martial art it was that’s still making my body sore.

But I guess the main reason my body aches is because I used Berserk mode. And Xu TianMing wasn’t even using pure Taekwondo.

“These coupons were given to me personally by the owner of the dojang. If you go to the main dojang, you might even receive some personal guidance from the owner.”

“Shu Zhe’s smart, so if he has a good teacher, he might be soon able to develop a healthy body and become a manly man.”

“Class leader, if you don’t believe me then you can go with your brother. Also, if you don’t use these coupons, they will be useless…”

The class leader couldn’t fight against my persuasion and nodded.

“Okay, I’ll think about it.”

Then, she reminded me:

“But, don’t misunderstand. I’m doing this for Xiao Zhe, it has nothing to do with you.”

“If you really want to give me the coupons, then I’ll give you something in return.”

Huh, what is she going to do in return, maybe… a kiss? Last time was an accident and I didn’t get to enjoy it enough.

“Bring your clothes tomorrow.” The class leader said expressionlessly.

“Clothes, what clothes?”

“Of course, I’m talking about Qing Zi Academy’s uniform.” the class leader sighed, “The buttons probably all fell off since you wore it in a fight.”

“Bring it to school tomorrow and I’ll help you fix it. But you should carry it in an opaque bag and don’t let Xiao Qin see when you give it to me…”

It was like the class leader had a large internal struggle as she said those words.

I was really happy, even though I knew the basics of sewing, I would end up with crooked buttons or prick my fingers until they bleed.

“I would appreciate it, but no one helped me pick up the buttons this time… they got lost in the alley.”

“No problem. I usually collect a lot of buttons, so I should have some similar ones, just bring the clothes over…”

Then, she began to act cold towards me like usual as if it was an entirely different person who agreed to help me sew on my buttons.

And she didn’t even take the Taekwondo coupons. Perhaps she wants to go with me instead of her brother?

That should be fine, but I have a lot of coupons, so we can actually bring more people.

The problem is which dojang should we go to?

The dojang in the west district is closer, but it seems their amenities are a bit lacking. And the west district might have great facilities, but the owner often appears and He Ling, the female student I beat, also goes there.

Well, let’s just see where it goes from here. I still don’t even know if Shu Zhe wants to go or not.

My body had pretty much recovered on Wednesday. I feel like I wouldn’t lose even if I fought Xu TianMing right now.

I have to thank the Little Tyrant for my quick recovery abilities.

It was pouring rain when I woke up the next morning.

I thought it would pass by quickly, but it actually got bigger and formed a river on the streets.

I then received a text from the weather forecast office: “Due to the sudden rainstorm, Er Huan Road and San Huan Road have all been closed. Please try to stay at home.”

Then it was a group message from teacher Yu: “Rainstorm is too big so school is closed for the day. Everyone should self-study at home.”

Right when I was happy about the sudden one day break, I received a call from Ai Mi:

“Hey manservant, we can’t film today since the set turned into a pool. How about you come over and let’s take a walk together?”

Take a walk? Where are we going in this rain?
