I Really Didn’t Want to Increase My Favorability!

Charm level at 8? Xu Lin couldn’t help but doubt the system’s accuracy. Although she was attractive with delicate features, an 8 was higher than Ji Yun’s current score.

Su Teacher also had an 8, and Chu Qingchan had a 9, but the system’s rating seemed to have its reasons. Even with the potential to gain some weight and improve complexion, an 8 seemed a bit high. However, considering her physique at 5.5, she truly was a woman who could withstand a lot of studying.

According to the system, initially displaying an adult male physique as 6, it means she’s approaching the physique of an adult male.

Even in her seemingly malnourished state with a thin body, Xu Lin suddenly had an idea.

His plan was to provide her with plenty of food, allowing her to replenish and perhaps become an intellectual, physically fit, and charming hexagonal warrior with scores of 8.

However, if her physique truly reached 7, she might not differ much from the one in the biology textbook.

The thought sent a shiver down his spine, but since he had initiated the favorability system, he decided to increase it a bit. After all, his goal was to become stronger.

Now, the points that he initially considered unimportant seemed worth striving for.

However, he found the improvement in favorability confusing. For instance, with Teacher Su, whom he had been in the same class with for a long time, her favorability had only reached 12, and Ji Yun, whom he saved, had a favorability of 15.

Furthermore, subsequent increases were challenging, or rather disproportionate. Despite having good relationships with three individuals, his favorability with them is only 30.

In theory, the maximum should be 100, but what would a favorability of 100 look like? Even lifelong parents might find it challenging to reach 100, as it would essentially be like completely idolising someone.

Not to mention the so-called ultimate reward for collecting all 12 zodiac energies; at that time, he declared he wouldn’t even think about it in this lifetime.

After the morning classes, Xu Lin didn’t see Teacher Su, as their class did not have an English lesson in the morning. However, since the adjacent class, Class 7, had a lesson, he headed straight to the teacher’s office after school. Coincidentally, he spotted Su Qingwan, brimming with energy, coming out of the office.

“Hey, Teacher Su, seeing you so lively, I guess you’ve completed your task.”

“Yeah,” she flashed a big smile, then glanced around the corridor before suddenly hugging him. Resting her head on his shoulder, her voice carried a hint of tears.

“I did it! I did it, Xu Lin! Thank you… Really thank you!”

“Well, teacher, your courage wasn’t in vain. Also, you should thank your family.”

Xu Lin took a deep breath, stopped his hand that was about to rest on her waist, and gently patted her shoulder.

Though he seemed to have helped her, her courage, her parents’ understanding, and the understanding of others played a crucial role.

Before his rebirth, he wasn’t a mature man; he was just a young guy in his twenties. There were things he couldn’t handle.

If her parents were truly determined, his words might have been futile, and no matter how much she protested, it might not have made a difference.

However, seeing her future divorce indicated that her parents cared for her happiness, not just their interests. That’s why he dared to suggest she go.

“I told them on the spot that I don’t like Jia Qing. Then I had a serious talk with Uncle Jia, and he wasn’t too upset, at least for now.”

“Then, at night, after the guests left, I had a good talk with my parents. I found out that they truly love me, saying my happiness is the most important.”

“Yeah,” Xu Lin thought of his own parents and softened.

She slowly lifted herself from his shoulder. Seeing Xu Lin’s expression, she blinked her eyes, looking a bit shy but cute.

“However… um.”

“What’s wrong?” Although her expression was cute, Xu Lin suddenly felt something was off.

“Sorry, I used you as a shield. My parents want to meet you.”

“I’m not going!” Xu Lin made a decisive decision, turning around and leaving without hesitation. Su Qingwan tried to catch up for a few steps, but within seconds, Xu Lin disappeared around the corner.
