I Am The Omnipotent Prince Charming

“Su Chen, you do not need to reduce your weight; actually, your appearance was cute!”

Meng Lu lifted her eyes and looked at Su Chen, then smiled lightly, trying to show her charm.

Su Chen smiled without emotion. He could not take her word for it seriously, of course.

Other than Pan Xiaojie, who looked at Meng Lu with deep meaning, the others did not hear anything about this and ate their barbecue.

“Here comes the crayfish!”

The boss came over with a pot of delicious crayfish in his hands and a big smile on his face.

“They’re finally here, Old Wang. I have not eaten these in more than two months. I have been craving your crayfish for a long time.” Guo Lei grinned.

As long as they had been in school, the four of them came at least once a week to eat barbecue, so they were familiar with the boss here.

Old Wang came from the northeast and had an unrestrained personality. Sometimes he would sit down to have a drink and chat with his customers when there were only a few of them. Although he was in his forties, he lived like a young man.

“Dig in, then. I’ll give you a twenty percent discount on the first day of school.” Old Wang put the crayfish down and patted his chest generously.

“Manly!”

Su Chen and the others gave a thumbs-up at the same time.

“Haha…” Old Wang laughed and then stuck out his lips at Lin Yumeng, as he said to Su Chen, “Made a girlfriend?”

Su Chen smiled and nodded.

“Congratulations. I must propose a toast.”

Old Wang toasted Su Chen with a cup of wine. He smiled strangely at him. “You are amazing. We haven’t seen you for two months, and I almost didn’t recognize you. Could it be that you lost weight to get a girlfriend?”

Lin Yumeng’s cute face blushed.

“No, I was already thin when I met her.” Su Chen speechlessly rolled his eyes.

“Haha…I’ll get busy.” Old Wang smiled and turned away.

“The boss is interesting!” said Qian Manman with a grin.

“Try the crayfish. I can tell you that Old Wang’s barbecue is good, but the crayfish are the best,” praised Pan Xiaojie as he smiled while putting on his gloves.

Several girls were already drooling, especially Lin Yumeng, looking at the pot of red crayfish, and she gulped a few times.

“It looks delicious.” Lin Yumeng’s bright eyes glowed. She wore plastic gloves and directly took one.

The crayfish were just out of the stove and were still hot. She placed the crayfish on her plate, then blew on her hands again and again.

“Slow down. Don’t rush.” Su Chen said, worrying about her hands. He took the crayfish over to his plate, skillfully peeled the meat out, and placed it on her plate.

“Thank you.”

Lin Yumeng’s heart was sweet as if there were honey in it. She gave him an adorable smile, and her eyes curved up as she ate the meat. The word “happy” was written on her face.

“How does it taste?” asked Su Chen with a grin.

“It is delicious.” Lin Yumeng smiled, satisfied.

Su Chen smiled and continued to help her peel the shell of her crayfish.

“Hey, hey, I know you just made it official, but can you take it easy?” said Pan Xiaojie angrily.

“We are not here for dog food.” Guo Lei ate three sticks of beef barbecue and said as he snorted.

“Just think about how we feel about being single,” shouted Qian Manman.

Neither Zheng Bin nor Li Jia liked to talk. They just looked on with grins.

“Indeed, I feel like having a boyfriend just by looking at them.” Meng Lu winked with her curved eyelashes, her face one of envy as she smiled.

“I can do it myself. You don’t have to help me!” said Lin Yumeng to Su Chen as he blushed.

She was enjoying being spoiled by Su Chen, but she had a shy character. She felt embarrassed when so many people made fun of her.

“All right, do it yourself.” Su Chen smiled, then stared at his friends angrily.

A few of them could not help laughing; the atmosphere was cheerful.

***

University life got back on track after two consecutive days of freshmen arriving. These first-year students began to go through the helpless pain of military training. Su Chen and the others who had been through this started their formal classes.

The first class was advanced mathematics, which made many of them feel like dying.

Two minutes before class, the teacher came in. He was a bespectacled old professor who looked kind.

“Damn, it is Professor Zhang.”

“Isn’t Professor Zhang lecturing only for the Mathematics Department?”

“I heard that Professor Zhang is an authority in the Mathematics Department. Many of the math geniuses in our school are his students.”

“…”

The students in the classroom had a great discussion. The old professor was famous at the University of Magic City. Many people knew him.

“Students, there should be a lot of you who know me. My name is Zhang Wenbo. I will be lecturing in your advanced mathematics classes this year.”

After a simple self-introduction and a smile, Professor Zhang began his lecture.

Professor Zhang, who had taught numerous students, would naturally lecture with great sophistication.

But even so, for many in the Finance Department, it was still hard to understand.

[Listening to the master of mathematics, mathematics proficiency +10]

[Listening to the master of mathematics, mathematics proficiency +10]

The notifications of proficiency popped up in Su Chen’s mind, shocking him beyond comparison.

Professor Zhang was indeed the senior professor at the University of Magic City. He was a master of mathematics too.

This was the first time he had met the master, and his proficiency had increased quickly. Since mathematics was learned at an early age, his mathematical skills were intermediate by default when he acquired the system.

He was not a poor student, but also not an excellent one, so he did not understand most of the advanced mathematics lectures.

However, now with the proficiency that zoomed like riding a rocket, his brain seemed to be gradually awakening. Those obscure, esoteric knowledge points that Professor Zhang talked about seemed to have become a lot easier.

[Proficiency reaches 10,000, advanced mathematical skills]

The increments of this level made Su Chen’s mind pour out large information about mathematics. A huge door opened slowly in his eyes. The numerical values, symbols, and formulas on the blackboard had become familiar.

Got it. He understood everything.

Su Chen looked down at his book in surprise and found that everything was so easy to understand—and interesting.

“Oh, my god! This is the rhythm of the students who get good grades!” Su Chen said to himself and began to read the pages that followed.

He already understood what Professor Zhang said, but the knowledge later in the textbook was unknown. All the unknown became understandable once he flipped to the pages.

He enjoyed the feeling.

“Does anyone know how to solve this problem? Please come up and solve it. Everyone else, try it on your own.”

Professor Zhang wrote a question on the blackboard and wanted to summarize what he had just said with it.

Su Chen was still absorbed in looking at the book as if it was a martial arts novel, and he was in a state of selflessness.

Professor Zhang looked around the classroom and saw no one raise a hand. Then his sight fell on Su Chen. His eyebrows slightly peaked, and he pointed to him. “That student, come and try this question.”

Instantly, all eyes fell on Su Chen.

Su Chen was still turning the pages of the book. It was as if he did not hear the call.

The students looked queerly at Su Chen. What was that, reading a mathematics textbook with such devotion? Why, they didn’t believe it!
