"Fang Xian, what method do you have that will allow us to win the upcoming match?"
"Please sit down."
Fang Xian placed two bottles of mineral water on the table and slowly sat down.
Shen Huimei knew she had been too hasty and a bit presumptuous.
Fang Xian smiled and spoke as he saw Shen Huimei sit down.
"You know Usagi Tsukino and Saeko Busujima from Japan, right?"
"Um..."
As the captain of the White kingdom team, Shen Huimei naturally kept a close eye on the information of the contestants from various countries.
Saeko Busujima and Usagi Tsukino are the seeded players from the Sakura Country and are the favorites to win the championship.
Usagi Tsukino missed the first match, and Saeko Busujima missed the second match. Anyone with eyes to see knows that there must be some connection between this and Fang Xian.
The real reason, however, remains unknown to anyone.
Fang Xian opened the bottle of mineral water, a half-smile on his face.
"Like every awakened one, they are all seeking ways to become stronger. They are, Ning Rong'er is, and so are you."
Upon hearing this, Shen Huimei frowned slightly.
She had investigated Ning Rong'er's strength before, and it couldn't possibly be this level.
To reach such a level in a short period of time, a large amount of resources must be consumed.
Regardless of whether the Dragon Kingdom has that many resources, even if it does, it wouldn't invest in Ning Rong'er so early.
After all, there are geniuses all over the country every year, and she has only recently awakened her powers; the abundant resources are not yet available to her.
Since Fang Xian mentioned them, could it be that they are all related to Fang Xian?
"Fang Xian, are you implying that you're the one who made them stronger?"
Fang Xian took a sip of water and nodded noncommittally.
"Of course, it was indeed I who made them strong, which is why Usagi Tsukino and Saeko Busujima chose to leave the Sakura Country."
Although Shen Huimei was mentally prepared, she was still somewhat shocked to hear Fang Xian admit it himself.
What kind of temptation would it take to make two geniuses give up their country?
Or perhaps, how disappointed were they with Japan that they chose to leave?
If it were her, she would never betray White kingdom.
"I wonder what price they paid to become stronger?"
Fang Xian put down the mineral water bottle and smiled slightly.
"It's comfortable to deal with smart people."
"What they gave was very simple: their sincerity."
"sincere?"
Shen Huimei looked at Fang Xian suspiciously, completely disbelieving.
"Fang Xian, I'm afraid your true feelings aren't the only thing that's going on, are they?"
"Hehe, indeed, only true love can make us fall in love and become husband and wife."
"So you're saying all three of them are your...wives?"
"right."
"You... signed a contract with them?"
"No, no, no, they volunteered; no contract was required."
Shen Huimei scrutinized Fang Xian and found that she could not see any evidence that Fang Xian was lying.
"So you mean, if I want to become stronger, I have to become your...woman..."
Fang Xian nodded, without denying it.
"I'm sorry, I can't do it."
Although Shen Huimei desperately wanted to become stronger, she didn't want to sell her body and soul.
She slowly rose, nodded slightly, and took her leave.
Fang Xian did not stop him, but simply spoke.
How do you think Koreans will view you?
Shen Huimei stopped and answered decisively.
"I have done my best and left the rest to fate. I have a clear conscience, and they will naturally understand me."
"What if they don't understand and instead try to hurt you?"
"I believe that our people would not do such an absurd thing."
Shen Huimei left with these resounding words, opened the door, and departed.
Fang Xian looked at Shen Huimei meaningfully, but did not stop her from leaving.
...
Shen Huimei walked out of the Dragon Kingdom residential area, feeling troubled and worried.
By rejecting Fang Xian's proposal, she essentially ruined the future of the White kingdom in this competition.
Although Fang Xian is handsome and strong, Shen Huimei is unwilling to sacrifice her innocence.
Otherwise, her years of remaining single would have lost all meaning.
Shen Huimei slightly raised her head, her gaze fixed on the vast and boundless sky.
She stood there quietly, filled with sorrow, unsure of what to do.
Suddenly a figure appeared and a hand struck the back of her neck.
Shen Huimei instantly lost consciousness. The man in black helped her up and quickly disappeared into the darkness.
Fang Xian watched from afar, his phone recording the whole time, and followed with a cold smile.
The man in black flew out of the 'Genius Tournament' area and arrived at an unfinished building.
He placed Shen Huimei on a chair and tied her up.
The man in black took out a pre-prepared phone stand, phone, flashlight, ring light, and other items and set them up towards Shen Huimei.
He opened the live stream and entered the title:
Shen Huimei, the traitor from White kingdom, endures the humiliation of justice.
Shen Huimei was already very popular in White kingdom, and now she's already getting over 100,000 views online.
The man in black was very satisfied with the popularity as he watched the people constantly flooding into the live stream.
At this moment, Shen Huimei woke up and was terrified to see the lights around her and the man in black in front of her.
She tried to break free from the restraints while the man in black wasn't looking, but to no avail.
Hearing the noise, the man in black slowly turned around.
He laughed and pointed at Shen Huimei, excitedly saying, "Family members, Shen Huimei, that traitor, has woken up."
"How do you want me to abuse her?"
Shen Huimei heard the man in black speaking White kingdom language and found the voice very familiar.
The more she listened, the more frightened she became; the voice of the man in black was so familiar.
Shen Huimei couldn't believe her ears and asked, her voice trembling.
"Teacher Park, is that you?"
The man in black stopped abruptly, turned around, and removed his mask.
The face that was revealed was that of Park Guk-chang, the teacher that Shen Huimei had brought with her.
When Shen Huimei saw Park Guk-chang, she was completely dazed and couldn't believe that it was really her respected teacher, Park.
Park Guk-chang revealed a sinister smile, staring at Shen Huimei as if she were prey.
"Huimei, don't blame the teacher. Who told you to abstain on your own initiative?"
Do you know how much the people of the whole country hate you right now? Do you know how much they despise you?
"You also have an affair with Fang Xian from the Dragon Kingdom, which is truly heartbreaking and disappointing for the entire Korean nation."
"I don't!"
Shin Hye-mi roared with all her might, shouting out the grievances in her heart.
"Teacher Park, don't you even believe me?"
"I trust you?"
Park Guk-chang stared coldly at Shen Huimei.
"I only saw you come out of Fang Xian's room, and you still dare to deny it?"
Park Guk-chang's words filled Shen Huimei with despair, and she tried her best to explain.
"Teacher Park, I really have nothing to do with Fang Xian."
Park Guk-chang sneered, completely unwilling to listen to Shen Huimei's sophistry any longer.
"Let me tell you, even if you have no relation to Fang Xian, the people of the whole country will not let you off the hook."
"Neither you nor I, the teacher, can withstand their anger."
"So the teacher can only wrong you and make a sacrifice to protect the teacher."
Upon hearing this, Shen Huimei felt as if she had fallen into an ice cellar.
Only then did she realize that she had been abandoned.
White kingdom wants to take her
—Apologize.
