I'm just a lackey of a prestigious academy, why do they all kiss me?

When Jiang Wo returned to the classroom, he found that the fruit candy he had given to Shen Chuyan was back on his desk untouched.

Shen Chuyan lowered his eyes and quietly looked at the book in his hand. Jiang Wo's sitting down did not affect him. He did not even raise his head.

Jiang Wo was a little disappointed, and he silently put his candy back into his pocket.

Perhaps Shen Chuyan doesn't like sweets; after all, not everyone likes sweets as much as he does.

He'll give it to Shen Chuyan when he has something better.

Jiang Wo took out her workbook and began to work on the problems.

To be fair, although Jiang Wo became Ying Naheng's lackey as soon as he entered school, he only wanted to be a marginalized nobody. He joined the group initially to protect himself from being bullied, and he didn't actually want to have too much contact with Ying Naheng himself.

Jiang Wo admitted that his personality was not likable, coupled with his plain appearance, lack of stature, and almost zero communication and negotiation skills.

Such a person, who is neither good at literature nor martial arts, will only make more mistakes and say more when he gets close to Innaheng. If he is not careful, he may even bring trouble upon himself and end up with nothing but ashes.

Not to mention that he had read the comics beforehand and knew the truth. The more impressed Innaheng was with him, the more dangerous his future situation would become.

He didn't remember the details, but logically speaking, given the noble status and cold-blooded nature of the four legendary figures in Saint Eton, on their long journey to win back their wives, they only cared about Shen Chuyan, the protagonist. People like Jiang Wo, who were just lackeys and sycophants, were nothing more than cannon fodder on their road to love.

Perhaps, in order to please Shen Chuyan, Ying Naheng might suddenly remember that there was such a troublesome little guy as him who had humiliated his wife in the past, and in a fit of excitement, he might just kill him to add to the fun.

Reality is often crueler than imagination. The thought that he might die soon made Jiang shiver involuntarily. He tightened his collar and made up his mind to stay away from Ying Naheng.

Unfortunately, the decision to distance himself from Innaheng was not in his hands, but in Innaheng's.

The next morning, he was taken to Innaheng's lounge.

To protect the rights of these aristocratic children, St. Eton provides each distinguished student with a private, luxurious lounge.

While middle-class and lower-class students lived in 30-square-meter dormitories, these privileged children had a lounge at school that was several times more spacious than their dormitories.

But no one would object to this. The strict hierarchy and social status had permeated the entire social system. Students were exposed to this from a young age, and in their view, these were normal, expected, and insurmountable.

Jiang Wo was a little reserved as she entered the nobleman's lounge for the first time.

The luxurious decor and exquisite furniture all around made one wonder if they had entered a lavish banquet hall rather than a student lounge.

Inna crossed her legs and played with the Rubik's Cube in her hand, solving it in a few seconds and then breaking it up again, repeating this process over and over.

When Jiang Wo arrived, she waved to him, gesturing for him to sit down beside her.

Jiang Wo obediently walked over, and as soon as she sat down, a Rubik's Cube was shoved into her hand.

"Do you know how to play?" Inna asked him.

Jiang Wo shook her head.

Leisure and play are luxuries for children in the lower part of the city. At most, they play with stones and sand. Occasionally, a kind adult will build a simple swing for them in an open space, and the children will rush to line up and play.

"If you don't know, I'll teach you." After saying that, Ying Naheng ignored Jiang Wo's expression and began to teach her on his own.

He solved the Rubik's Cube in front of Jiang Wo, and then said to Jiang Wo, "You try it."

Jiang Wo was a beat slow to react. It wasn't until Ying Naheng had solved the Rubik's Cube that he belatedly shifted his attention to Ying Naheng's hands.

Naturally, he didn't see anything clearly.

But he wouldn't refuse. Tell me, which underling would dare to directly ask, "What kind of crap are you teaching?" after their boss has personally instructed them? I wouldn't.

They're probably tired of living.

Jiang Wo planned to live a little longer, so he had no choice but to grit his teeth and solve the Rubik's Cube under Inna Heng's watchful gaze.

Puzzle games like Rubik's Cubes require patterns and skills; it's impossible to solve them completely in a short time without trying several times.

Jiang Wo hung his head and turned the Rubik's Cube over and over again. After solving one side, the other sides were in complete disarray. When he tried to solve the second side, the side he had just solved was scrambled again.

He encountered a huge problem. He was already under a lot of pressure facing Innahan, and now that he couldn't solve the Rubik's Cube, fine beads of sweat began to appear on his forehead.

He tried many times, but could not find the right method.

Finally, having exhausted all other options, Jiang Wo blushed, turned her head to look at Ying Naheng, and said in a pitifully soft voice, "Your Highness, I'm not very good at it."

When she said this, the tips of her ears turned bright red.

However, it wasn't out of shyness, it was purely out of fright.

Unaware of his thoughts, Inna raised an eyebrow, wondering how this little snail could be so charming.

Even if she can't solve a Rubik's Cube, she'll whine and act cute towards him. Where do all these strange little tricks come from?

However, he was quite patient today, so he simply hugged Jiang Wo from behind and taught him step by step.

The two are quite different in size. Jiang Wo is only a little over 1.7 meters tall, while Ying Naheng is known for his strong physique at school.

She hugged Jiang Wo from behind, almost completely enveloping the boy in her arms.

Jiang Wo's body stiffened for a moment. He rarely had such close contact with strangers. The last time was when he humiliated Shen Chuyan in the warehouse.

He paid a heavy price afterward. Shen Chuyan has hated him ever since, coldly refusing his candy gift, and then completely ignoring him. Although they are deskmates, they have spoken less than five words to each other since the start of the semester.

However, after a moment of stunned silence, Jiang Wo immediately forced himself to come back to his senses. It was his older brother's teaching time, and if he continued to be distracted, he would really lose his sense of direction.

Now his older brother can patiently teach him how to solve a Rubik's Cube, but if he gets angry, he'll be the one solving it.

Jiang Wo has a wealth of experience as a subordinate. A qualified subordinate is one who follows the leader's lead without question. If the leader says one thing, you can never say another. If the leader suddenly teaches how to solve a Rubik's Cube, then you must immediately learn how to solve it.

As for why the eldest brother suddenly did this, don't worry about it. The eldest brother must have his own reasons.

Jiang Wo carefully observed Ying Naheng's technique, making sure to memorize every single movement.

Perhaps out of consideration for him, Innaheng moved much slower this time, and provided explanations for each step.

Jiang Wo may be clumsy with words, but he's not stupid. After diligently studying Professor Innaheng's knowledge, he quickly mastered the skills.

However, as honest as Jiang Wo was, he would never have imagined that Ying Naheng would deliberately twist one of the Rubik's Cube squares in a bend just to tease him.

Under normal circumstances, if you rotate it according to the rules, all six sides can be solved. However, if you twist off one of the small squares and reassemble it, the Rubik's Cube will never be able to be solved.

Jiang Wo had pieced together four of the sides, but he couldn't get the last two right. One of the squares was the wrong color, and he couldn't solve it no matter how many times he tried.

Sitting behind him, Innaheng seemed to sigh. He curled his fingers, pinched Jiang Wo's face and pulled it outwards, saying, "How can you be so stupid?"

Jiang Wo felt a little guilty as her face was being pulled, and slowly said, "I'm sorry."

Innaheng couldn't help but burst out laughing. Jiang Wo didn't know what he was laughing at. Holding the Rubik's Cube, she looked at him blankly.

Inna flicked his forehead. "Silly snail."

Jiang Wo touched his forehead and mumbled a few words, but before he could speak, his stomach opened its mouth for him.

It made a loud, gurgling sound.

Jiang Wo felt a little embarrassed and quickly touched his stomach.

Inna lowered her eyes, her gaze falling on his lower abdomen, and asked with some surprise, "How could such a small belly make such a loud noise?"

Jiang Wo's face turned completely red.

The meals at St. Eton College are too expensive, so Jiang Wo usually only eats one of them, sometimes breakfast, sometimes lunch.

Today was his turn to eat lunch, so he didn't eat breakfast.

Generally, on the mornings he eats Chinese food, he eats a few candies to avoid low blood sugar.

But today his older brother called him in a hurry, and he was called away before he could eat.

After a period of mental exertion, my stomach, which had been empty for a long time, began to protest.

"Everyone's stomach rumbles," Jiang Wo explained dryly.

"Really?" Innaheng clearly didn't believe it. "But mine isn't that loud. Could it be that you're hiding something in your stomach?"

"I didn't hide anything," Jiang Wo answered instinctively.

"Hmm, then prove it to me." Inna paused for a moment, then said slowly, "Lift up your clothes and let me see your little belly."
