I loaded the character design panel.

Chapter 22 I'm Not a Scumbag

The next morning, Ang Lee woke up naturally again before the alarm clock rang.

After getting up, he went to wash up.

After washing up, he noticed that the weather outside was sunny, so he took out the sneakers he had bought yesterday and put them on.

Although he moved very quietly, trying not to make any noise so as not to disturb his roommates.

"Ang Lee, you're awake so early? Where are you going?"

But at this time, Zhong Guoqiang also woke up.

"running."

Ang Lee put on his new shoes, stood on the ground to stand on them, and felt very comfortable.

Although he discovered last night that "White Moonlight" is easier to make money with, it doesn't mean he'll give up "Sports Genius," since no one ever complains about having too much money.

Besides, if he doesn't go running after buying the running shoes, wouldn't that be a waste?

"Can your muscles hold up?"

Realizing that he had gone out for a run early yesterday morning, Chung Kwok-keung seemed to understand and asked with concern.

Through last night's conversation, he already knew that Ang Lee used to exercise very little.

The last time I did high-intensity training was during freshman military training.

People who rarely exercise are prone to muscle soreness and swelling when they suddenly start high-intensity training. After one day of training, their arms and torsos will ache for several days.

"I feel fine."

Li An stretched his arms and felt no discomfort.

Perhaps it's because his character design greatly enhances his athletic talent, but although he was exhausted after training last night, he felt great after a good night's sleep.

Where are you planning to run off to?

"playground."

"You go first, I'll go after I get up."

After the conversation ended, Ang Lee left his dormitory and went for a run on the track.

Perhaps it was last night's heavy rain that cleared up all the rainwater, because the weather is very sunny today.

Just like yesterday, when he arrived at the playground, there were already many people running.

[Your unforgettable portrayal of the "white moonlight" has increased your progress by 1%, and you are rewarded with 500 yuan.]

Upon entering the track, before Ang Lee had even completed a single lap, a text notification suddenly popped up on the control panel.

"As expected of the 'white moonlight,' she's way more impressive than any athletic genius."

Upon seeing this message, Ang Lee was in a wonderful mood.

He was just running, and hadn't even run very far, when his progress was already accelerated. That's so awesome.

I don't know who triggered it, but maybe some girl was captivated by the way he ran?

"Good morning, Ang Lee! Are you running again today?"

Just then, a voice rang out from behind him.

No sooner had he finished speaking than the robust Yang Guowei sped up to his side and ran alongside him.

"Good morning, senior."

Upon seeing his appearance, Ang Lee realized that he was the one who triggered his "white moonlight" feelings. His previously wonderful mood suddenly turned sour, but he still responded positively.

"How do the new shoes feel to run in?"

Yang Guowei, jogging alongside him, couldn't help but ask.

This young man is teachable. He listens to advice and is willing to take others' opinions into consideration, which alone makes him better than many others.

"Running is much easier now, I feel like the money was well spent." Ang Lee became excited when talking about his new shoes.

Wearing suitable running shoes, he found that the feeling of each step he took was very comfortable, and running felt like a real pleasure.

"That's good. If you encounter any problems with running in the future, you can come to me. As long as it's not a heavy rainstorm or during summer or winter vacation, I run here every day."

The feeling of successfully promoting Amway was exhilarating. Yang Guowei's goodwill towards him increased significantly. He patted him on the shoulder, left a message, and then sped away.

As a running enthusiast, his pace is far beyond that of a beginner.

For experienced runners, jogging consumes too little energy and doesn't serve its purpose of training.

"What a kind person."

Seeing him run away, Ang Lee couldn't help but sigh.

……

After finishing his daily morning run, Ang Lee went back to his dormitory to shower and change clothes, and then, just like Chung Kwok-keung, went to the classroom.

"Where did you all go? I woke up and found you weren't there. I thought you had come to the classroom early."

As they entered the classroom, Liang Junsheng, who was playing on his phone in his seat, came to greet them.

Unlike yesterday, Liang Junsheng hadn't left yet. He asked them as soon as they returned.

"We went for a morning run," Li An answered truthfully, without hiding anything from him.

"Holy crap..."

Liang Junsheng realized what he had missed and regretted waking up so late.

"Stop yelling, I'll call you next time."

Seeing his reaction, Zhong Guoqiang smiled and patted him on the shoulder.

"Why next time? Not tomorrow?"

Tomorrow is the weekend.

"Oh right."

The two of them were chatting, but Ang Lee didn't join in. Instead, he picked up his bag and walked away.

"Good morning, Xiao Zhong."

On his way to his seat, he walked up to Zhong Lixue and greeted her.

Good morning, Ang Lee.

Zhong Lixue was still mentally preparing herself to greet him, but she was surprised when he came over to greet her first. She stood up abruptly, responding with a mixture of joy and nervousness.

[Your unforgettable portrayal of the ideal woman has increased your progress by 1%, and you are rewarded with 500 yuan.]

"As expected of my beloved, the one I've always admired..."

Ang Lee couldn't help but marvel at how he could speed up the process simply by making a call.

After finishing this task, Ang Lee went to his usual seat.

Unlike before, after he sat down, Liang Junsheng came to his side.

Noticing his arrival, Ang Lee couldn't help but shift his position slightly, creating a tiny bit of distance between them.

"Li An, is Zhong Lixue your next target?" Liang Junsheng took a deep breath and turned to ask.

"Target? What does that mean?" Li An was a little confused when he heard this.

"Is she the one you're pursuing, or do you want her to pursue you?" Liang Junsheng didn't know if he was pretending to be confused or genuinely confused, so he simply asked the question outright.

"Neither," Li An shook his head.

"Li An, can you please stop targeting Zhong Lixue? She's quite pitiful. She always wears the same old clothes, has to do her homework in the computer lab, and works part-time at a bubble tea shop every day to buy a laptop. If you dump her, she'll feel really miserable."

Thinking about how much they had talked since yesterday, and that they could be considered half friends, Liang Junsheng hesitated for a moment before finally revealing his thoughts.

"I understand. You've also believed the rumors people are spreading, haven't you? The rumors that Ang Lee is a scumbag."

Upon hearing this, Ang Lee realized what he was thinking.

He finally understood why Liang Junsheng had been actively trying to strike up a conversation with him and build a relationship with him yesterday; it turned out that this was his purpose.

"Yes, uh, no... what does 'rumor' mean? Aren't you one of them?" Liang Junsheng nodded, then realized what was going on and felt it was unbelievable.

"Of course not, I've never even had a girlfriend."

Li An was speechless. Zhong Lixue had never spoken to him before and didn't know him, which was one thing, but he never expected that his roommate would believe such nonsense.

"Really?"

Upon hearing this, Liang Junsheng's eyes widened in disbelief.

Believe it or not.

Ang Lee shrugged. This kind of thing couldn't be proven, and he didn't want to prove it.

He doesn't consider himself a good man, but he knows he's not a jerk.
