After confirming the location, Lin Yu raced towards the old site of the supermarket.
As he neared the secluded old supermarket, the dwindling number of people around confirmed his suspicion that he was heading the right way. After a five-minute sprint, he finally reached the vicinity of the old supermarket.
The path to the old market was just ahead. Anxiously, Lin Yu peered forward and spotted a teenager with dyed red hair and the high school uniform lounging about, looking like a casual sentinel.
Having access to the original host's memories, Lin Yu instantly knew what this meant.
He was keeping watch for someone up to no good inside!
Similar to how someone might stand guard outside a bathroom if bullying was happening within, he was there to prevent sudden teacher arrivals and stop other students from entering.
This suggested that the unsavory act might have already begun. With a sinking feeling, Lin Yu quickened his pace.
Approaching the red-haired sentinel, before Lin Yu could speak, the boy sprang to his feet and straightened up, his face plastered with a sycophantic grin.
"Good to see you, Dragon Bro."
The unfamiliar nickname puzzled Lin Yu immensely. Dragon Bro? What sort of wannabe gangster title was that?
It turned out the original host was born in the year of the snake but disliked the moniker 'Snake Bro', lacking in might and awe. By local custom, a snake could be referred to as a 'little dragon', leading the original host to demand the title 'Dragon Bro'.
Thinking this over, Lin Yu nearly facepalmed at the absurdity of it all. But this was no time for distractions. Ignoring the nickname, he hastened past the red-haired boy, eager to see if the situation matched his fears.
The pure girl cornered by bullies - an NTR scenario!
"Dragon Bro, um, Bro Mao is inside handling some business."
Watching Lin Yu about to barge in, the red-haired teenager bit the bullet and stepped in front of Lin Yu, faithfully fulfilling his role.
Hearing this, Lin Yu almost burst into laughter.
Did the original host, a notorious school bully, not have enough clout, or was Lin Yu, the martial arts heir, insufficiently intimidating?
Without mincing words, Lin Yu slapped the sentry hard across the face. The boy flew back into the alley, and Lin Yu strode in without hesitation.

Beyond the low stone archway, Lin Yu finally saw the scene within. On the left side of the narrow, brick-paved path, a purple-haired teenager paused, halfway through his wicked act, as he turned towards the disturbance Lin Yu had caused.
Opposite the purple-haired boy was a girl sitting back against the brick wall, her arms tightly crossed over her chest, eyes brimming with tears. She was clearly cornered and terrified.
Lin Yu exhaled in relief, seeing the girl was not yet harmed. In the comic, the original host didn't stumble upon the scene until the girl's blouse had been half-unzipped.
It seemed Lin Yu had arrived much earlier than his comic counterpart.
Stepping forward assertively towards the purple-haired boy, it was evident he was afraid of the original host; he straightened his posture and greeted Lin Yu with a reluctant smile,
"Dragon Bro."
"Who the hell's your brother?"
"Get lost!"
Lin Yu harshly dismissed him. The startled boy and his cronies quickly scattered.
With the bullies gone, Lin Yu finally turned his attention to the girl, the comic's main heroine. When he saw her face, he found himself swallowing hard.
No wonder she was the main character of an adult comic; she was exceptionally beautiful. Her long, silky hair, delicate face, straight nose, and tempting lips were mesmerizing, but it was her eyes that held Lin Yu captive—a pair of glistening, almond-shaped windows to her soul, a godly work of art.
Shaking off these distracting thoughts, Lin Yu focused on her name tag instead.
B Area, Class 4.
Tang Manman.
Remembering the girl's name, Lin Yu promptly turned and left without a word, to avoid further entanglements.
Stunned by her sudden rescue and by the behavior of the previously fierce looking boy, Tang Manman quickly stood up and dashed back to the B Area school building, not even dusting off her clothes.
After Lin Yu and the bullies left, the girl followed suit, leaving the scene deserted once again.
Back inside the school, Lin Yu nearly stumbled because of his ridiculously long hair covering his eyes. Scowling, he pledged, "If I don't cut this damn hair tonight, I'm not the pure-love champion."
He remembered his resolve to stay away from the four main heroines and to let them have their perfect endings with their loved ones.
With that thought in mind, he mentally launched his "Pure Love Plan"!
