Saving The Tragic AdonisCh39 - Don’t Wear The Clothes I Buy To Meet Other Women

Shu Ning and Yin Mingzheng were talking and chatting as they walked into the classroom. Shu Ning took off his school bag and stuffed it into his desk. As he was shoving his school bag into his desk, he felt that something wasn’t quite right, so he looked down, reached in, and pulled something out.

It was several colorful letters, mostly pink. FSY6eN

Subconsciously, he turned his head to look at the little villain. He was also digging something out of his desk. After a little while, he pulled out a handful of love letters.

Shu Ning secretly counted. One, two, three, four… six letters. Heh, it’s only one more than me.

Tomorrow’s love letters will even things out.

Shu Ning happily thought to himself. EgvdaX

Regardless of gender, there would always be an inexplicable desire to win when it came to attracting the opposite sex. Yin Mingzheng lived with him and slept in the same bed as him. Their relationship was very good, but this didn’t stop Shu Ning from being competitive about certain things.

For example, their heights or the number of love letters they received.

Ever since Yin Mingzheng revealed his genius learning ability, the love letters he received grew exponentially. He probably received more love letters than any other boy in their middle school. Later, Yin Mingzheng and Shu Ning started going to the basketball court to play basketball and played against the second-year team. Yin Mingzheng instantly became famous. Even second-year and third-year students were sending love letters to Yin Mingzheng.

Shu Ning’s heroic appearance on the basketball court had also attracted a lot of girls. The number of love letters he received also started to rise.

H4ndo7

“Boring.”

Yin Mingzheng didn’t even look at the love letters in his hands. He threw them straight into the trash can in the corner.

Shu Ning repeated something he’d already said a million times, “You shouldn’t act like that towards girls. They’re going to hate you.”

The little villain voiced his confusion, “I’m going to reject them either way. Why not be straight up about it?” hL6mOM

Shu Ning felt that what he said was reasonable, but he still said, “You should be gentle with girls.”

Then, he opened the envelope to see what was inside.

If it was just a confession letter with a name on it, he would definitely write something along the lines of “I’m sorry, I’m still young, and I don’t want a relationship right now” on the back of the letter. Then, he would send it back.

If there wasn’t a name or any information on it, he would just throw it away. c8Da45

If the letter asked him to meet after school, he would usually go if there wasn’t anything else going on. Shu Ning would tell them, “Our parents and teachers told us that we’re not allowed to fall in love early. We should focus on our studies right now.”

Over time, his reputation among the girls ended up being much better than Yin Mingzheng’s.

In terms of gifts, Yin Mingzheng would usually ignore them and refuse to accept them. Shu Ning would try to reject them as gently as possible. If he really had no choice, he would accept them.

If they stuffed the gifts into his desk, he would share them with Wang Shenshen and a couple of other boys. Nx8fTD

Fortunately, the things that middle school girls could give were things like chocolate, biscuits, and other snacks. It wasn’t anything too expensive.

After receiving love letter after love letter, Shu Ning suddenly realized something—why did he need to reject them?

Yin Mingzheng rejected them so directly that Shu Ning went along and rejected them as well. However, now that he was thinking about it, he didn’t need to reject them. His family was doing well, and his studies were a breeze. Why shouldn’t he fall in love?

In his last life, he was single from beginning to end. He died young. He didn’t even have the chance to fall in love because of his studies and his job. Since he had the chance to start all over again, why not seize the opportunity to make up for his regrets? yiCOnZ

Love was something that took time to grow. He could spend some time with the girl first. If they were a good match, they could try a relationship. If they weren’t a match, they could just part ways. As long as he didn’t do anything excessive, there shouldn’t be a problem.

Everyone said that being in a relationship helps you develop as a person. Shu Ning wanted to learn how to fall in love.

Wang Shenshen and Long Qiao were always talking about girls. Although Shu Ning didn’t have any girls that he was interested in, he was interested in falling in love.

He had never liked anyone before. He wanted to try. Ph2iaq

With this thought in mind, Shu Ning was itching to make a move. One day, a second-year student pulled him aside to confess to him. She was pretty and assertive, outgoing and charming.

The pretty girl was very pleasing to the eyes. With the encouragement of his friends, Shu Ning accepted her confession.

The two of them scheduled a date on the weekend.

The other boys started hooting and hollering. Yin Mingzheng was the only one with a gloomy face. OaoNgm

On the day of the date, Shu Ning rummaged through the closet. He made a mess of the clothes that Yin Mingzheng had folded and pulled out two sets of clothes for Yin Mingzheng to judge.

“Mingzheng. Mingzheng. Is the black one better, or is the gray one better?”

The little villain was looking at his laptop. When he heard Shu Ning ask for his opinion, he turned around, looked up, and took in the two outfits. “They’re both bad.”

“Ah?” Shu Ning was disappointed. “I thought these two outfits were nice. It makes me look more mature.” MAaVtT

The girl was older than him. Her style was very adult, so he also wanted to dress a little more maturely.

The style for both outfits was steady and mature. They’d probably match well with his date.

He didn’t give up. “Then, what outfit do you think looks best on me?”

The little villain raised an eyebrow. “Your school uniform.” uUQHrO

Shu Ning: “…”

Well, it looks like the little villain doesn’t feel like picking clothes out for him.

Please support our translators at chrysanthemumgarden (dot) com

After posing in front of the mirror for a bit, Shu Ning decided on the gray outfit. It looked mature, but it wouldn’t make him look too dull.

After putting on a light gray sweater and jeans, Shu Ning looked at himself in the mirror. He was sunny and handsome, clean and fresh. Everything looked good. gbIc5O

Then, he picked up his cell phone and wallet. He said “bye” to Yin Mingzheng and slipped out of the room.

As soon as he left, Yin Mingzheng’s face darkened. He closed out of his messy clutter of tabs.

He was really angry.

He was angry for some reason. Pyaigs

When he thought about it, there didn’t seem to be any reason for him to be angry.

Then, he would get more angry.

He couldn’t help but think: What’s so good about that girl? She looked super tacky and lame. She didn’t have anything going for her other than her figure.

Yin Mingzheng thought about it for a moment. Then, he got up from his chair, changed into a hoodie, and secretly followed Shu Ning out the door. 0cjtw

He walked over to the community gates.

Shu Ning had just walked out the gates.

Yin Mingzheng dodged and dashed behind him. He saw him walk towards Southside Street, cross the street at the traffic light, and arrive at the subway station. Yin Mingzheng pulled his hood over his head and quietly followed Shu Ning into the subway.

There were a lot of people in the subway station, so Shu Ning didn’t notice him. Once he got on the subway, he started playing with his phone. WkfVDI

Yin Mingzheng also followed him onto the subway. He grabbed the handlebar in the next subway car over and silently watched Shu Ning.

About half an hour later, they arrived at Qingqiu Station. Shu Ning left the subway, and Yin Mingzheng also got off. They left the subway station through Exit 2 and arrived at a bustling commercial district.

Shu Ning walked over to a statue of a goat in the middle of the street and waited. Meanwhile, Yin Mingzheng stood further away pretending to be a tourist.

About an hour later, the second-year girl finally arrived. xpQED0

Yin Mingzheng was super angry. She was late by a whole hour! She clearly wasn’t a good person!

He immediately opened up the movie theater’s app and looked up the movies that were currently showing. He found that there were five movies currently playing.

Two of them were foreign movies, one was an animated film, one was a suspense movie, and one was a romance movie.

If two people were going on a date for the first time, they probably weren’t going to watch the suspense movie or the children’s movie. That means they’re probably going to watch either one of the foreign films or the romance movie…

Ah, forget it. He’ll just buy a ticket for all of them. zg8X6l

Just in case, Yin Mingzheng bought a ticket for all five movies and found a seat in the lobby. He could see Shu Ning and the girl talking and laughing in one of the booths nearby.

Damn it, that girl was getting closer and closer to him…

Do you have to be so proactive on your very first date?

Yin Mingzheng crushed the movie tickets in his hand. dHjRwo

About ten minutes later, one of the theater’s opened up. Shu Ning and the girl stood up and walked over for the ticket taker to check their tickets. Yin Mingzheng pulled on his hood. He waited for the two of them to head inside. Then, he pulled out all five of his tickets. Under the ticket taker’s stupefied gaze, he headed inside.

Yin Mingzheng entered Theater 5 and sat in the third-to-last row.

Shu Ning and the girl were in the front. They were very, very far from him.

The theater lights dimmed, and the movie started playing on the screen. Yin Mingzheng couldn’t see anything through the pitch black theater. He sat there and thought to himself: What the hell am I doing? s4 SRM

Yin Mingzheng endured this stupid and shallow movie for about an hour. Once the movie ended, he was the first one out the door. He was preparing to take the subway back home.

However, once he reached the entrance of the theater, he thought: Well, I’ve already come all this way…

Out of the corner of his eye, he saw a burger place next door. He said to himself: I’ll buy a hamburger and go.

Once he bought a hamburger, he soullessly chewed on it as he stared at the theater’s entrance. He saw Shu Ning and the girl walk out a moment later. They were headed towards the shopping center across the street. U9MXSz

Yin Mingzheng took a big bite from the hamburger.

It was as if he had lost control of his feet as he followed along behind them. He followed them as they picked out shoes, clothes, and more. He kept following them until they reached the jewelry counter.

Please support our translators at chrysanthemumgarden (dot) com

Their heads were leaned against each other as they picked out jewelry. After a while, they picked one out, and Shu Ning left to go pay for it.

The girl stood by the store door and waited, looking very satisfied. PnEflj

Yin Mingzheng thought to himself again: What the hell am I doing?

Just when he was about to leave, the girl’s cell phone suddenly rang.She picked it up with a sweet smile on her face. “Hey girl, I’m at the mall… It’s done. Once I decide to do something, I naturally get it done. Tch, all guys prefer sexy girls, and so does Shu Ning.”

“Tell Qing Qing that I’ll get revenge for her. I’ll dump him after playing around with him. Heh, who gave him the balls to reject Qing Qing? He should go take a look in the mirror!”

Yin Mingzheng’s hearing was really good. He heard her every word crystal-clear. vYw2do

The girl had no intention of dating Shu Ning at all. The only reason she came on this date was to get revenge for her friend. However, Shu Ning, that idiot, actually got fooled.

Yin Mingzheng was furious.

“…Tell Qing Qing that all men are the same. A guy like Shu Ning isn’t worth crying over… ah!”

The girl was startled by a sudden touch. z1tYy5

When she turned her head, she was met with a handsome face. She couldn’t help but feel a little stunned. “Yin Mingzheng…”

Yin Mingzheng’s face was grim. He grabbed her hand and took her to the bathroom.

“Let go of me!” The girl held onto her phone and started struggling. Unfortunately, she was nowhere near as strong as Yin Mingzheng. She was quickly pulled to a secluded area next to the bathroom.

“Spill it. What exactly do you want to do to Shu Ning?” Yin Mingzheng threw a punch towards the girl. ImLOrG

Frightened, the girl let out a scream and shut her eyes. She heard a thud, and Yin Mingzheng’s fist landed on the wall next to her.

The girl was thrown into a panic. She opened her eyes and looked at Yin Mingzheng in fear. She swallowed hard and said, “I-I don’t know what you’re talking about?”

Yin Mingzheng pressed closer with a chilly look in his eyes.

At such a close distance, his face looked even more beautiful. It carried a strong sense of impact. tUQvXy

The girl almost stopped breathing.

“I heard everything that you said just now. You want to play with Shu Ning’s feelings?” Yin Mingzheng asked coldly.

Please support our translators at chrysanthemumgarden (dot) com

The girl quickly denied, “I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

“Who’s Qing Qing?” KruP3Q

The girl kept denying.

Yin Mingzheng threw his fist at her again.

“Ah!” The girl shouted, “My friend! My friend!”

“Does she have a grudge against Shu Ning?” sDrxWS

Trembling, the girl said, “S-she confessed to Shu Ning. Shu Ning rejected her, and then…”

“And then what?”

“And then Qing Qing was really upset. She cried for a long time.”

Yin Mingzheng raised an eyebrow. “Then what about you? Why did you lie to Shu Ning?” sX4T8W

The girl defended her actions, “Qing Qing cried over him for so long, yet he didn’t seem to care at all. We couldn’t stand how full of himself he was being. S-so, I wanted to get him to fall in love with me and then dump him.”

Yin Mingzheng scoffed, “So childish. Just because you confessed to him, he has to get together with you? If I confess to you right now, would you get together with me?”

The girl was both surprised and delighted. “Really?”

Yin Mingzheng curved his lips into a sneer. He leaned forward, his eyes cold and ruthless. “You want to get together with me?” 7wVBmt

His eyes looked like that of a beast. He had a dangerous air about him. It made the girl’s hair stand on end. “No, no, no.”

Yin Mingzheng grabbed her cell phone.

The girl got anxious. “Give me back my phone!”

“Apologize to him right now. Then, break up with him.” Yin Mingzheng waved around the phone in his hand. “Otherwise…” SsLJ37

The girl bit her lip. “As long as I break up with him… you’ll give my phone back to me?”

“Go.” Yin Mingzheng jutted his chin towards Shu Ning’s direction.

Chrysanthemum Garden.

The girl had no choice but to walk back to the jewelry counter. Shu Ning was already waiting there with the jewelry in his hands. He seemed confused about the girl’s disappearance. He had his phone in his hands and was just about to call her.

Yin Mingzheng felt the girl’s phone vibrate. He looked down and saw that it was Shu Ning. He ruthlessly declined the call. uWdORI

Confused, Shu Ning looked at his phone.

The girl had already walked up to him. She summoned up her courage and said, “Shu Ning.”

When he saw her, Shu Ning smiled. “Hey, I just gave you a call…”

“We’re not right for each other.” The girl interrupted him. BxLEo

Shu Ning’s face froze.

Huh?

Did he do something wrong?

The girl continued, “Actually, I came here to get revenge today.” lD4hg0

Shu Ning: “???”

The girl said, “When you rejected Qing Qing, she was really upset. We just wanted to teach you a lesson. I was only going to play around with you and then dump you.”

Shu Ning: “???”

“I’m sorry!” m8hj L

Shu Ning: “???”

After she said her piece, she ran away. She walked all the way over to the bathroom. When she saw Yin Mingzheng, she bit her lip and said, “I already said it.”

Yin Mingzheng handed her the cell phone and signaled with his chin that she could leave.

The girl ran away with her cell phone. yd0bxv

When Yin Mingzheng looked over at Shu Ning, he was still standing by the jewelry counter, dumbfounded. He held a delicate little jewelry bag in his hand.

After a while, he dejectedly walked out of the mall and wandered along the commercial district.

Yin Mingzheng saw that he was in a low mood and silently followed him. He saw him buy some grilled squid and eat it mechanically.

The silly look on his face… was really cute. dXyhOq

Yin Mingzheng hesitated for a moment. Then, he walked over and said, “Huh? Shu Ning, why are you here?”

Shu Ning looked up and was a little surprised to see him. “Mingzheng, why are you here?”

Yin Mingzheng pointed to the bookstore in front. “Nothing much. I came to buy some books. What about you? Aren’t you on a date?”

Shu Ning threw away the bamboo skewer in his hand and awkwardly said, “No, there’s no date.” cS32 i

Yin Mingzheng wondered aloud, “No date?”

Shu Ning didn’t want to embarrass himself in front of Yin Mingzheng, so he pretended that nothing was wrong. “Actually, I wanted to buy a gift for Cai Cai by myself, so I said I had a date.”

Ahhh, I got dumped on the first date! Please don’t let him find out!

In order to prove that what he said was true, he lifted the jewelry bag in his hand. 5MCfF9

Yin Mingzheng nodded. “Want to go shopping together?”

Shu Ning nodded and said yes.

Anyway, he was already here, and there was still the rest of the afternoon left. They might as well go shopping.

The two of them went to the bookstore first. In the end, Yin Mingzheng said that they didn’t have the book he wanted, so they left the bookstore and walked back to the movie theater. svcnZJ

“Let’s watch a movie. I’ve been wanting to watch this one for a long time,” Yin Mingzheng said, pointing at the trailer playing on the screen above the theater.

Shu Ning looked up. Shit, isn’t that the movie he just watched, Alien Invasion?

“Didn’t you say you wanted to see it?” Yin Mingzheng asked.

Seeing that the villain was really looking forward to it, Shu Ning decided to suck it up and said, “Let’s watch it then.” Npzb56

The two of them bought tickets and went in to watch Alien Invasion.

After watching the movie, the two of them walked out of the theater. Yin Mingzheng then dragged him off to the mall.

Please support our translators at chrysanthemumgarden (dot) com

Shu Ning took a look. Shit, isn’t this the mall he just visited?”

Yin Mingzheng dragged Shu Ning, who was a little hesitant, into the mall. They headed straight towards a men’s clothing store. Then, Yin Mingzheng chose two pieces of clothing for Shu Ning. “Go try them on.” cz1O6r

Shu Ning dazedly walked into the fitting room with the clothes.

He changed into the clothes and came out.

The first piece was a white sweater. The design is very original, and it made him look a lot more fresh.

Yin Mingzheng asked, “What color is it?” sTOveg

Shu Ning realized that he couldn’t see the color. He responded, “White.”

Yin Mingzheng nodded.

The second piece was a varsity jacket. It was a brilliant blue. It made him look particularly energetic.

Yin Mingzheng asked, “What color?” INfRtX

Shu Ning said, “Blue.”

Yin Mingzheng snapped his fingers and nodded. “Just these two.”

Just as Shu Ning was about to change back into his clothes, Yin Mingzheng said, “Don’t change.”

Shu Ning turned his head in surprise. DzH0XV

Yin Mingzheng said, “You should wear something bright.”

He then asked the clerk to recommend some pants and asked Shu Ning to try them on.

Shu Ning had no choice but to do as he asked. He wanted to go grab the sweater he had changed out of, but Yin Mingzheng stopped him. “Don’t grab it!”

Shu Ning: “Huh?” CpP9dT

“It’s ugly.” Yin Mingzheng started dragging him out of the store.

“Where are we going?” Shu Ning was completely at a loss.

Please visit chrysanthemumgarden (dot) com

Yin Mingzheng said, “Get new jewelry.”

“Why?” zNEFZc

“It’s ugly.”

Shu Ning opened the bag and took a look at the jewelry. The girl had meticulously selected this, and it looked rather delicate… Well, if the little villain says it doesn’t look good, then it doesn’t look good.

The two went to the jewelry store to exchange the jewelry for something else. The clerk’s attitude was very good. She allowed them to pick out a piece of jewelry of the same price.

Shu Ning finally settled on a purple hairpin for Cai Qin and happily left with the little villain. PnhaJ5

Shu Ning rarely went shopping. The two of them hung around the arcade for a long time. Then, they went to a cafe that was super popular online for dinner. After playing around for an entire day, they finally started heading home.

He had originally felt really helpless and embarrassed about being dumped after his first date. However, after Yin Mingzheng dragged him around all day, that little bit of unhappiness disappeared like smoke in the wind.

When he was with the girl, it hadn’t been any fun at all. He had been very uncomfortable.

Maybe getting dumped wasn’t such a bad thing after all. 3ClwDP

Other than being a little embarrassed, he didn’t really feel much of anything else.

When they got home, they immediately presented the hairpin to Cai Qin.

Cai Qin was super happy to receive a gift from Shu Ning. She praised her son over and over.

Lying in bed that night, Shu Ning still felt a little restless. He said to Yin Mingzheng, “Let’s hang out again someday.” fQwh8T

Yin Mingzheng laid beside him with his eyes closed. He hummed softly.

In class on Monday, Shu Ning pulled out a love letter from his desk. He was about to open the letter and reply, but Yin Mingzheng grabbed it and threw it into the trash can.

Shu Ning: “…”

Yin Mingzheng also threw away the letters in his desk. He raised his eyebrows and said, “Just be straightforward about it. Don’t leave them with any hope. It’ll be less trouble this way!” 3vZGCR

Shu Ning was overcome by his momentum. When he thought of what the girl said that day he was dumped, he felt that Yin Mingzheng was right.

After first period ended, he suddenly realized something—how was supposed to get into a relationship if he threw all the love letters away?

Chrysanthemum Garden.

The last date made him vaguely aware of something. He didn’t seem to be interested in girls.

However, he wasn’t sure if he just wasn’t interested in girls at all or if it was just that one girl in particular. Wang Shenshen and Long Qiao said that, whenever they saw a pretty girl, they would feel a sense of desire. Shu Ning had never felt that desire. URqAxs

He wanted to try again.

However, as soon as Yin Mingzheng saw that he received a love letter, he would immediately throw it away. Then, he would warn him, “You shouldn’t get into a relationship while you’re young.”

Shu Ning had no choice but to listen to him. He was still only fourteen, so it was a little early for a relationship.

Towards the end of the term, Shu Ning was stopped by a girl again. She confessed to him. The girl was very cute. She had soft, limpid eyes, and she looked very gentle and kind. omzRjE

Shu Ning felt that he would probably like this type of girl. He felt a little moved.

After the girl confessed, she stared at him eagerly. “Shu Ning, what do you think?”

Shu Ning scratched his head. “Then… we can try dating each other for a bit to see if we’re compatible.”

The girl laughed and took his hand. “Okay.” yXaPRU

“Yoooooo~” Wang Shenshen and Long Qiao started hollering.

Shu Ning awkwardly let go of the girl and took a step back.

The girl blushed.

Her shy behavior made Shu Ning determined to try things out with her. He looked up relationship tips and everything. That weekend, he put on the white sweater that the villain bought for him. He was just about to head out when he was stopped by the villain at the front door. fD2auv

“?” Shu Ning looked up.

In a very short period of time, Yin Mingzheng had gotten taller once again. Now, Shu Ning had to raise his head to look up at him.

He didn’t drag the villain to get their heights measured anymore. That would just be looking for embarrassment.

Anyway, the little villain was the tallest in their class. Shu Ning, on the other hand, didn’t seem to grow much taller. ukMh W

“Change your clothes,” Yin Mingzheng said coldly.

Shu Ning furrowed his brows, puzzled. “Why?”

Story translated by Chrysanthemum Garden.

“Just change it.”

The villain’s attitude was firm. Shu Ning didn’t want to argue with him, so he shrugged, went back to the closet, and changed his clothes. He thought the white sweater looked nice, and it was comfortable to wear. Shu Ning felt that it would work well for a date. 02GqKD

However, the villain was strongly against it, so he’ll just change.

He changed into the bright blue varsity jacket instead.

“No,” Yin Mingzheng said.

Shu Ning turned around. “Why?” u0KwtT

“I don’t like it,” said the villain.

Shu Ning: “…”

Shu Ning thought he would say something like “It’s ugly” or “It’s not suitable”, but he had never thought he would hear the words “I don’t like it”.

It was really unexpected. J 89Gx

The villain’s face was cold and frosty. Shu Ning figured that it didn’t really matter what he wore, so he switched it out for a brown jacket instead.

“In the future, don’t wear the clothes I buy you to meet other women.” A cold voice rang out from behind him.

Shu Ning turned his head. Yin Mingzheng had already walked to the desk and sat down. He opened his laptop and continued to analyze data.

As he grew older and older, the villain’s face was becoming more and more mature. The baby fat on his cheeks had completely disappeared. His entire aura seemed to be on the cusp between childhood and adulthood. He possessed both the youthful nature of a child and the elegance of a young adult. pIF7XO

His hair was thick and jet black.

He had a shapely and attractive head. It was the kind of head shape that was really good-looking and complemented his features. It was almost a shame that he didn’t go into modeling.

His hair looked very thick and glossy. He looked like those celebrities who deliberately put extensions in their hair for volume.

The top of his head was very round, not flat. It set off his face to appear smaller and his forehead more full. 7hC8 Z

His facial features had always been very delicate, but, now, he had finally grown into them. His eyebrows were long and thick.

His eye sockets were deeper, and his aura was stronger.

Chrysanthemum Garden.

It was the kind of face that immediately made you think wow! His first impression was both handsome and intimidating.

When Shu Ning heard what he said, he slowly pondered over the meaning of those words. 7kLfun

Don’t wear the clothes he bought to meet other women?

What did that mean?

Shu Ning couldn’t figure it out, so he shrugged his shoulders, grabbed his phone, and left.

Forget it. If he doesn’t want him to wear it, then he won’t wear it. It wasn’t like it was that big of a deal. IoB31p

    • In public school there’s many different types of girls. Many will start dating in 14-15 years. In my public school there was a girl who started dating man at least 10 years older than her when she was only 13. Most horrifying thing was that many of her friends was thinking it was normal. Or how about my aunt public school? Just some 30 years ago in her class, after visit to a doctor, from 23 girls only 2 never had very close relationship with man. They was 15-16 years old.

      And it seems that MC’s school very common school, so I wouldn’t expect much

      • I get your point, but as another reader pointed out, there are high school girls who date older guys. The fact is, laws are different everywhere so as long as girls are not engaging in underage sx, it becomes a question of morals and what the family/community/society feels is acceptable behavior.

        I commented on SN’s maturity in a previous chapter because the way that he acts is more in line with the character that he became then the age that I assumed he was/is. But, the thing is, the author hasn’t actually said how old he was before so he could be like 18-19. In which case, he’s still pretty immature.

        If you’re feeling uncomfortable maybe wait a few chapters more chapters? But I don’t think the author is trying to write a depraved character who is going after the young.

    • Shu Ning has definitely graduated from junior high, he died young but he had a job. So he’s most likely in the university student age range between 17-22. But even if he has all of his memories intact, it seems that his current body’s brain development level is restricted to that of a 14 year old, because he doesn’t exactly come across as an adult. That’s why it doesn’t bother me. On the other hand, it would’ve really bothered me, as well as his parents, if he had actually tried to date a 20+ man/woman.

    • agreed with ScholarSilentSnow. there’s a bit gray plot about his transmigration. he seems transmigrated when he was a child but amnesia makes him completely forget about the book plot and ends up bullying Mingzheng until he fell and got back his memories about the book. eventhough he sometimes thinks more mature, he still perceives himself as teenage so his innocent personality stay because he’s been living in this world book normally for years.

    • I want to agree with you, since there was clear indication of Shu Ning being an adult in his previous life, but throughout the story so far he has never come across as having an adult’s maturity, mentality or comprehension. It’s more like ‘being adult before’ was just a slipshod excuse for him knowing information about Yin Mingzheng, and hasn’t had any inclusion into the plot or writing other than that. It’s easier just to think of him as a pre-pubescent child who somehow had a premonition of the potential future, and who intuitively knows German. Somehow. The story’s fun and nice to read, but it has some serious plot sinkholes.
    • He has memories of being adult but I don’t think he has the maturity of one. He transmigrated as a child and lost his memories of his previous life for some reason. And just recently recovered it. I don’t consider it as him having lived those extra years.

      • This. People really is anal about the weirdest thing. I can understand if 60 y.o transmigrated into 17 body and try to date 15/16 immediately. But Shu Ning is adolescence or young adult transmigrated into a child. He grow up as a child, lost his memories and got them back at 14. He is basically 14 again. Because you are shaped by your environment and it is human nature to fit in. If you transmigrated as toddler, you had toddler’s strength and weakness and had to live like a toddler. What is dangerous for normal toddler still dangerous to you because of your immature body. If you didn’t want to be seen as a freak (doing exercises beyond toddler limit), you had to fit in. Once you do that, you are basically the toddler again. Human brain will adjust with this new information and forgot those of long ago, just like how we slowly forgot what we learn or even memories over times. That is why while Shu Ning had momentary matureness remnants of his original life, it is drowned by his childishness appropriate for his current life. What is so wrong with him dating a senior a year older or same age girl in this current life lol.

  2. Ngl, she’s a great friend it’s just that she’s in the wrong novel lmao. Thanks for the chapter!

  3. It’s a shitty fucking thing to do to play with someone just cause your friend got rejected…
