Chapter 1033 Falling in Love with a Witch

Xia Shou initially thought it was a joke.

But later, he actually fished for half a summer vacation, and became a real fishing master.

On the last day of summer vacation, he didn't get out of bed all day.

She spent half of the summer vacation teaching him what true delayed gratification is.

……

one year later.

"Old Xia, does your sister have a boyfriend?" The tall boy with slicked-back hair whispered in Xia Shou's ear.

"No, you're not going to pursue my sister too, are you? Don't even dream about it. She's actually quite arrogant. She was rejected by the school heartthrob from another department who confessed to her before, wasn't she?" Xia Shou said casually.

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, he has already spent a year of campus life at university.

The man sitting next to him was his roommate. Although he was away from the dormitory four or five days a week after he started his sophomore year, he still had a good relationship with his roommates.

A large part of the reason for this is thanks to Shangguan Yan.

"Sigh, I really envy you. I wish I had a sister like that. Will you work at your sister's company in the future?" Zhang Ziming asked.

"Probably? Maybe not. I don't really want to go," Xia Shou replied casually, his mind mostly on the practical case studies on the computer.

These cases were all sent to him by Shangguan Yan. His major was the same as Shangguan Yan's before, so the other party's work experience was a very valuable learning resource.

It is well known that most of the professional knowledge taught in schools will always lag far behind that of society.

Because industry technologies are constantly being updated, and it takes a considerable amount of time to compile technical knowledge into books and courses, the knowledge learned in schools is almost never used.

That is precisely why these materials are so valuable.

Although he is only a sophomore, Xia Shou spends almost all of his spare time studying industry knowledge in order to get as close as possible to Shangguan Yan.

But the more he learned about his sister, the more he realized how incredibly intelligent she was. So much so that he's recently started to shift his focus of study to housekeeping and is planning to become a stay-at-home dad in the future.

Fortunately, the setbacks he suffered from Shangguan Yan could be made up for at school.

"Stop looking, take a break. I'm serious, please help me, I really like your sister," Zhang Ziming said sincerely.

At that moment, my roommate, who was playing games behind me, burst into laughter: "I'm dying of laughter! I remember when we first entered university, you were the one who said Lao Xia was a kept man!"

Zhang Ziming: "Don't interrupt. This isn't my fault. Who wouldn't have those thoughts if they saw a college student walking with a woman in a Ferrari every day?"

Moreover, Lao Xia himself said that his family's financial situation was just average, but he was dressed entirely in extremely expensive designer clothes, which immediately gave the impression that he was... well, you know.

After saying that, Zhang Ziming glanced at Xia Shou and noticed that Xia Shou was engrossed in looking at his phone, so he leaned over to take a look.

"Has someone confessed their feelings to you again?"

"Mm." Xia Shou nodded.

"Are you going to refuse again?"

"Well, I guess it's because my older sister took her out to eat last time, which caused a little misunderstanding. It'll be fine once it's been cleared up," Xia Shou said.

"Sigh, I'm in college now, haven't I thought about dating?" Zhang Ziming.

Xia Shou remained silent and typed out his rejection to the other party.

Being too popular with girls is one of Xia Shou's biggest challenges, but the real culprit behind this phenomenon is actually Sister Yan.

She has a great eye for aesthetics, so the clothes she puts on him are all very tasteful. Coupled with the initial spotlight effect, he became quite famous at school during his freshman year.

During his freshman year, Shangguan Yan bought a Ferrari and often drove it to pick him up. Every now and then, this car would park at the school gate, and the owner was always a striking red-haired beauty. Anyone would notice. Over time, this led many people to have the same misunderstanding as Zhang Ziming.

After all, female college students who depend on others in society are common, but gigolos are not.

However, this misunderstanding only lasted for a very short time.

Because Shangguan Yan used to study at this school, and his story is quite legendary, he is a figure that teachers and senior students often mention as a legendary figure, and she used to often mention her younger brother.

Therefore, the truth quickly spread from the teachers and senior students, and their undeniable sibling relationship was immediately confirmed.

As a result, all the rumors vanished overnight, and no one thought there was anything wrong with the older sister picking up her younger brother.

Then, the scene from high school played out again, with a bunch of upperclassmen trying to curry favor with Natsumi, wanting him to be their wingman.

The only difference was that the number of girls pursuing him inexplicably increased, and Xia Shou didn't know why.

Xia Shou felt annoyed, but Shangguan Yan seemed to enjoy it.

She often took the female students who had a crush on him out to eat, and she often invited him along as well.

In just over a year, Shangguan Yan had gained a huge following of female admirers at school. Her overwhelming advantage in terms of money and industry status made her incredibly famous.

In Xia Shou's opinion, as a member of society, Yan Jie's social interactions were completely unnecessary for her, but she was very enthusiastic about them.

Xia Shou could more or less guess the reason behind this, because Sister Yan just had such a terrible sense of humor.

But it is precisely because of this that he finds her irresistible.

She's been using the same old trick lately: at the last moment when he's in the thick of things, she takes out her phone, pulls up the messages from those clueless guys who were pursuing her in college, and reads them to him in broken sentences.

Finally, she would say, "I'm 28 years old! All my friends from college and high school are married and have children. A woman's best age for childbearing is very short."

It may seem like an irrelevant answer, but it is actually an extremely "cold" display of strength.

The subtext is obvious.

In Xia Shou's ears, it was as if she was saying:
I also want to settle down and start a family. Look, there are so many guys your age who don't care about my age and want to be with me. If I agree, any one of them will immediately take your place.

As your secret lover, you have many competitors, and you don't have me completely yet, so I can walk away at any time.

But... it would be very easy for you to possess me.

As I just mentioned, a woman's reproductive window is very short, right?

But now, the opportunity is in your hands.
To Xia Shou, it sounded as if she was trying to provoke him.

While pretending to be distressed about her age, she read aloud the cheesy and embarrassing messages that other boys had sent her, as if she were holding a public search for a husband.

In the end, his competitive spirit and possessiveness kicked in, and he would always risk his life and go into battle unarmed.

Because of his maturity, he is no longer as impulsive as he was in high school, so he is more cautious and hesitant when it comes to serious matters.

Afterwards, she always acted as if nothing had happened, never mentioning anything, but instead giving him a meaningful look with an expression as suspenseful as the ending of a detective novel.

It's as if it's saying: Guess what the final outcome will be this time? Will the perpetrator clean up the scene? And what will become of the victim?
"If one day you marry another woman and then can't help but come looking for me, I won't refuse you then."

Don't blame me for breaking up your family then.

Everything that happens now and in the future is a choice you made when you were twelve.

To Xia Shou, her warning sounded like a confession.

Xia Shou increasingly felt that he had fallen in love with a witch... She captivated him to the point that all other forms of entertainment seemed dull.
