I brought lunch for the poor popular guy at school
Little did I know, the rich socialite caught me. She cornered me, her voice dangerous: "You like him?"
I was about to nod when my system alarm blared:
【WARNING! This socialite is obsessed with him and wants him for herself. She doesn't let ANYONE near him!】
【If you give him that lunch, she'll make our life miserable. We'll drop out of school and our life will be RUINED!】
【Quick! Tell her you don't like him - say the lunch is for her brother instead! Turn your rival into family and crisis averted!】
I clenched my fists.
Under her menacing glare...
I shoved the lunch box into her brother's hands: "No, I like your brother."

The air instantly froze.
"What?"
Jason looked up at me sharply.
His voice filled with disbelief.
He had sharp features, bold eyes, and rebellious bleached hair.
A single earring glinted coldly, his uniform collar carelessly open, revealing part of his collarbone.
Everything about him screamed untamed wildness.
Heaven help me, I'm allergic to bad boys.
But I had no choice. I lowered my eyes and forced myself to say: "...I made this lunch myself. Hope you like it."
Rebecca's expression shifted from threatening to shocked, then gradually softened as she raised an eyebrow at me: "You... like my brother?"
The system cheered in my head:
【Thank goodness for my quick thinking! The socialite doesn't see you as a rival anymore - just someone interested in her brother's love life!】
【We dodged a bullet, hehe!】
Jason gave me a meaningful look.
I quickly averted my gaze.
"Wow, bleach-head! Someone actually likes you!"
Rebecca was thrilled.
She linked arms with me: "You're the first girl brave enough to approach him. Such courage!"
Before I could breathe a sigh of relief, Jason coldly pushed the lunch back to me: "Don't need it."
"Don't be so cold," Rebecca hugged me tighter, suddenly friendly as if she hadn't just been threatening me. "She put her heart into this, bro, just accept it?"
She leaned close to my ear, her voice lowered with mischief: "My brother's always like this, but he's actually super innocent. He's never even held a girl's hand. You're totally his type - trust me, you won't even need to try hard."
"Rebecca!" Jason's ears instantly turned red as he grabbed her, "What nonsense are you saying?"
Rebecca dodged him skillfully, winked at me, "Sis-in-law, add me on social media. I'll tell you all his secrets."
She took my phone without hesitation and started typing.
When adding a contact name, she asked: "By the way, sis-in-law, what's your name?"
"..."
"Olivia."
As soon as I said it, she exclaimed excitedly: "Olivia, my future sister-in-law! I've got your back from now on, understand?"
I really didn't want to understand.
I wanted to cry.
We were supposed to be rivals!!

On my way back, I argued with the system: "Why did you tell me to confess to Jason?! We're doomed now! We failed our mission AND got stuck with this bad boy!"
