33- Baby
……
Suyun chatted with her mom on the phone for almost ten minutes, her hand holding the phone getting a bit numb.
She also found out the reason for her mom’s call.
It was because her mom was worried she didn’t have enough money for meals, so she sent 200 yuan at noon, but Suyun was busy and forgot to collect it.
As a result, after several hours of not retrieving the money, her mom thought something happened to her and called.
“Your mom is really good to you.”
“Yeah, quite nice. Uh, why are you still here…” Just as Suyun was about to leave, she found Qin Xue still beside her.
“Waiting for Little Yun!” Qin Xue’s curvy figure was pressed against the stacked soft cushions, her hands propping up her face, and she wore a flower-like smile.
“You’re waiting for me? Thank you.” Suyun was slightly stunned by Qin Xue’s smile.
“Then, baby, shall we go?”
“?”
Suyun had just started to think that Qin Xue wasn’t so bad, but regretted it the next second.
“You’re toxic, stop calling me that!” Suyun glared angrily at Qin Xue.
“Baby, baby, haha.”
“Hmph…” Suyun looked at the mocking Qin Xue, her anger rising until a pound sign appeared on her forehead.
I’ll smash you!
……
After making a fuss in the dance studio for a while, Suyun finally went downstairs with Qin Xue. It was now 4 PM, and the sun was still shining.
Thanks to Qin Xue, Suyun’s originally good mood disappeared.
How can this person be so idle, just knowing how to toy with her…
Fuming, Suyun didn’t want to talk to Qin Xue on the way.
Since the walk would take more than ten minutes, she started humming a song out of boredom.
Qin Xue wasn’t idle either; she kept glancing at Suyun.
This rabbit had gotten urgent enough to hit someone earlier, and now that she was angry and ignoring her, it was quite hard to deal with.
But Qin Xue found it very cute, so she secretly watched Little Yun’s face along the way, curious if any adorable expressions would appear.
Like right now, would Little Yun jump up in a panic and hit her for peeking? Hehe.
Qin Xue felt today was also a happy day.
Though she was troubled by the event next Tuesday, it didn’t feel good to be compared unfavorably, even if the other party was a real girl group.
A mere supporting role for someone else.
“Hehe~”
“Hmm?” Qin Xue paused at the delightful sound and realized that Suyun was humming a song.
Her mood changed so quickly?
No wonder she’s an idiot.
But then, Qin Xue suddenly had a bold idea.
“Little Yun, can you sing?” She poked Suyun’s shoulder.
“Sing? I can’t.” Despite the sparkles of expectation in the other’s eyes, Suyun directly shook her head this time, worried the other would laugh at her again.
“I think it’s nice, give it a try.”
“What’s nice? I really can’t…”
“Not right now, just take your time to practice, and sing for me next Monday.”
“Ah…” Suyun blinked in surprise.
At this moment, she realized this was a new task.
A thousand yuan for singing a song, that’s definitely worth it.
“Okay, I’ll give it a try.” Suyun reluctantly agreed.
Seeing Suyun agree, Qin Xue was quite satisfied.
They said their goodbyes at the south gate.
As soon as Lady Qin stepped out, a car came to pick her up, which Suyun watched with indifference.
Having money is really something else.
Thinking this, she walked home.
Once home, Suyun jumped onto her bed and lay down.
Though she hadn’t done much, she felt very tired.
Tired in her heart.
But for some reason, she felt like her heart was filled; it felt like she had a fulfilling day and was in a good mood.
Suyun actually knew it was because of Qin Xue, but she felt that couldn’t be the reason.
The more she cared for someone, the more painful it would be when she was abandoned, so it was better to treat it like work.
So, as long as Qin Xue made her unhappy, she would bite back!
“Dingling~”
After mulling over things for a long time on her bed, Suyun heard the ringtone from her phone.
She picked it up and found it was a song sent by Qin Xue.
Hmm, this should be the new task, right?
Suyun felt she could handle it; after all, it was just singing a song.
But when Suyun clicked on it and heard the sweet lyrics, she realized she was wrong.
“…”
Sure enough, money isn’t easy to earn.
This type of song is one of those that would sound cringeworthy if sung by most boys; only a cute girl could pull it off.
(Can I change to a different song? Xuejie)
To change the song, Suyun specifically addressed Qin Xue as “Xuejie” on her phone.
(Qin Xue: I think it suits you very well, no changing, just this one.)
Suyun felt her heart sink when she saw Qin Xue’s firm response.
Fine, fine, anyway, it would be just for Qin Xue to hear, it wasn’t that shameful.
But she wouldn’t be able to sing; if she went off-key and sounded bad, she couldn’t be blamed.
Without further ado, let’s start practicing!
……
……
In an office at the school, Shi Lezhi was sitting alone on the sofa, admiring new photos sent to his phone.
The photos featured various beautiful juniors, all kinds, including sweet girls and mature ladies.
But if he had to say, he preferred mature ladies, enjoying the feeling of conquering.
Chen Tingting could be considered a sweet girl, but she looked decent, so Shi Lezhi reluctantly settled for her.
Looking at the beautiful images on his phone, Shi Lezhi began to reminisce about his two and a half years of college life.
In college, he dated a total of ten girlfriends and broke up with all ten, seeking the joy of conquest and the thrill of taking things to the final step.
Once he conquered them, he would toss them aside; Shi Lezhi could be described as a true scumbag, even feeling just a step away from being a pervert.
Shi Lezhi scrolled through his phone, finally stopping on a unique picture marked with a star. This was a photo he secretly took while passing by the classroom.
This was also Shi Lezhi’s only regret; whenever he looked at this photo, he felt a fire ignite in his heart, wanting to do something.
His steps to conquer girls were straightforward: first, learn their class, then intentionally get closer, add contact info, and use his connections to help them. Before long, they would develop feelings for him.
If the girl didn’t have anything for him to help with, he would find a way to create a situation.
This method allowed Shi Lezhi to succeed in conquering girls ten times in a row, girls who originally looked aloof and wouldn’t even glance at him, like unattainable flowers.
Yet despite that, these people eventually turned into followers, abandoned like homeless dogs.
But during his eleventh attempt, he faced his first failure, and it was a devastating blow.
In his sophomore year, having just become the student council president, he was responsible for welcoming new freshmen. He quickly went through all the student cards and found a rare ‘mature lady’.
She looked and had a figure that matched his type perfectly, but upon actually seeing her at school, he discovered her aura was different from other girls, giving off a vibe that made it hard to approach.
The more this was the case, the more excited Shi Lezhi became, wanting to conquer her even more.
However, just at the first step of his plan for conquest, which was to make contact, all he got from her was a single word: “Roll.”
When he later tried to create trouble, he found out she seemed unconcerned about failing courses or scholarships. When he wanted to check which dorm she was in after school, she simply left the school gate, where a car picked her up, leaving him without any interaction opportunity.
This made Shi Lezhi feel frustrated for a year until he finally decided he had to conquer this girl; otherwise, he would feel a stain on his life.
As for Chen Tingting, she was the one who came to him without him even looking for her.
“Knock, knock, Zhi Ge.” A sweet female voice came from outside the door.
“Come in.” Shi Lezhi didn’t even glance at the door, seeming a bit impatient.
He had originally planned to take Chen Tingting out for some fun today, but she kept claiming she had things to do.
She had promised to go out before, but now she was backing out—was it deliberate?
“Zhi Ge~ you don’t seem to be in a good mood.”
“My parents are coming to see me this week, there’s nothing I can do. Let’s go out next week, alright?” Chen Tingting winked at Shi Lezhi, mesmerizing him.
Shi Lezhi perked up a bit from Chen Tingting’s small action and smiled.
“It’s nothing, should I send a little gift to your parents? Where are they now?” He pulled Chen Tingting into his arms, feeling her soft body.
“No need, no need.” Chen Tingting quickly refused, and then her tone shifted as if she wanted to say something else.
“Um…”
“I already called someone; they won’t come disturb you, and you can be number one very soon. It was just a little accident before.”
“Mm, thanks, Zhi Ge~”
……
……
“Phew…” After not knowing how many times she sang, Suyun fell exhausted on her bed.
She felt that she could probably sing along with the accompaniment now.
As long as she got the lyrics right!
As for whether she would be off-key, she wasn’t sure.
“Hmm…” While resting, Suyun began to recall what had happened over the past week.
Being a maid, acting cute, dancing, singing.
Qin Xue hasn’t arranged any normal tasks for her.
Well, the first night of cleaning that several hundred square meters hall counted as a proper task.
But that was only the first day.
The more she thought about it, the angrier she got.
“Why not just bite her and run away from this?”
