The real point is this: among Lanling High School students, you’ve got diligent, top-scoring youths (that’s me!), but also plenty of spoiled rich kids who slack off, scheming daily to copy homework just to get by.

Of course, I can’t write them all off. Truth is, if they tried, they *could* ace their work—they *are* focused in class, attentive and serious. It’s just that they’d rather not waste free time studying.

Just like me—I save my evenings for gaming too, right? I finish all daily homework at school whenever possible.

So I was genuinely shocked to see these guys suddenly flip their attitudes. One by one, scribbling furiously, studying like every second counted—racing against time.

Naturally, I had no idea it was *my* doing—that I’d left such a deep mark on their worldview.

Turns out, acing your studies *does* let you have it all! Even make a class beauty like Lin Muke chase after you!

“As the old saying goes: Within books lie houses of gold; within books lie beauties like jade.” The ancients truly weren’t lying!

Many rich kids silently realized: Back then, we thought studying was useless—better to learn business. We even got scolded (and spanked) by our families for it. Now? We get it.

Study well, and money will come.

Beautiful women will come too.

In their eyes, I was probably just a guy buried in textbooks all day—maybe a little full of hot air, but still, study-focused. After all, they’d seen me at school: the moment I had free time, out came exercise books and test papers. They assumed I drilled nonstop at home too, concluding *studying* caused my dramatic transformation.

A transformation so powerful it made the class beauty pursue *me*!

What they didn’t know: at home, I game all night. Now I also care for Xiao Xian. But since she’s my daughter, it’s not tiring at all. Once she learns chores? Even easier—like having a tiny, incredibly obedient little maid.

Ye Huaixian’s Master Plan. ✅

This reminded me of a famous quote: *“My success stems from hard study—I used others’ playtime to learn…”*

Alright, per international convention, the rest definitely won’t be revealed here.

…Though who knows? Maybe the real ending is: *“…and I used their study time to play.”*

This “chicken soup” is toxic…

But from personal experience? It might just be true.

Watching classmates study with such passion, I couldn’t dampen their spirits. So I slipped back to my seat, sinking into quiet melancholy.

Lin Muke’s bold move left me torn. On one side: the senior I admire—still unattainable even with Xiao Xian’s help. On the other: the gentle, effortlessly reachable class beauty, Lin Muke…

No… no. I shook my head. A man must resist temptation. Xiao Xian’s very existence proved it: the senior *must* hold a vital place in my future. Since my daughter with her—Xiao Xian—exists in this world, romance with Lin Muke is simply impossible.

I must steadfastly pursue the senior. Not chase a doomed fling.

Meanwhile, the moment Lin Muke reached her seat, she buried her face on the desk, too shy to look up. Her friends even spotted a faint shimmer of tears at the corners of her eyes.

*Did Ye Huaixian reject her?*

Honestly—if I were a guy, I’d never reject gentle, lovely Lin Muke! She was that well-liked; plenty of students, guys and girls alike, felt the same.

Ye Huaixian suddenly shivered. Then he noticed it: nearly every girl in class was staring at him. Hostile gazes. No kindness there.

He had, without a doubt, become…

—the Enemy of All Women!
