Help, He’s an Average Guy Who Thinks He’s Amazing

【1v1, SC, a self-deluded “average guy” school bully × an extremely clever, haughty top student, a sweet and innocent school romance】 Zhang Lian fancied himself an untouchable bad boy who could do whatever he wanted. He never expected that one day, love would tie his hands and feet. It all started because he thought Zhao Ruoyu liked him. He noticed that her eyes always seemed to be on him. But actually... Zhao Ruoyu: Should I remind him to hand in his homework? She accidentally touched his hand while collecting assignments. Zhang Lian: Holy crap, she touched me. She’s making a move on me. She likes me. They happened to meet on the stairs. Zhang Lian: She likes me. She’s following me, deliberately arranging chance encounters. She really loves me. Later, he realized Zhao Ruoyu wasn’t quite the stuffy top student he had imagined. “I like you! Go out with me. I know you’ve had a crush on me for ages, right?” “Thanks, but no.” Zhang Lian: “I get it. Girls are just shy and reserved. I’ll confess a few more times.” But she kept turning him down. Unable to take it anymore, Zhang Lian confronted her directly. “Do you like me or not? Just give it to me straight. If you say you don’t, I’ll never bother you again.” Thinking she could finally escape his harassment, Zhao Ruoyu answered without hesitation, “I don’t like you.” Zhang Lian: I don’t believe you. Zhao Ruoyu was speechless. It was the first time she’d met someone who kept her dangling: “I knew it. You’re such an average guy.”
