The pretty girl who plays with people's feelings is going to be severely punished.

Surprisingly, the phone wasn't taken away, and the hat wasn't taken off either.

Yu Lian, feeling guilty, lowered his head and deleted all the photos he had taken right in front of him, not even daring to leave the recently deleted photos alone.

The man hooked a finger around Yu Lian's clothes and led her forward, away from the area where she might be spotted by the person in question. Yu Lian, as timid as a quail, dared not move, clutching her phone and following closely behind.

He stopped downstairs at the girls' dormitory, bent down slightly, and tilted his head to look at her expression under the brim of her hat.

His black hair fell across his forehead with his movements, casually covering his brow bone. Yu Lian looked up, forced to meet his gaze.

A pair of eyes so beautiful it's hard to be angry with them. The lines are smooth and soft, with a sharp curve at the corners and a slight upturn at the outer corners that doesn't appear frivolous. The eyelashes are long and slender, hanging prominently at the inner and outer corners of the eyes.

Her eyes were clear and bright, shimmering with moisture, and she looked at everything with tender affection.

"I'm sorry, you..."

When their eyes met, his voice paused almost imperceptibly for a moment.

"...Why did you take pictures of my roommate?"

They were roommates, to be honest.

Yu Lian was nervous. When she heard him speak, her eyelashes trembled. She had gone through all sorts of excuses in her mind while walking this road. She exhaled and looked up at him, her voice trembling.

"He's handsome."

Yu Lian has never had the habit of avoiding eye contact when lying since she was a child. Perhaps it's because she has read too many detective novels where criminals lie and make various small movements to be detected, so she always forces herself to look people directly in the eye.

This trick has been used since elementary school, from stealing money from parents to not doing homework in junior high, and its success rate is not low.

She has a sweet, innocent look, and when she looks at people with her round eyes, her eyelashes curl up. Her pupils are very dark and clear, giving her a bewildered and innocent appearance. Looking into those eyes, even if what she says is unconvincing, it's hard to question her.

"You mean, because he's handsome?"

He seemed to have some difficulty understanding, pausing several times before finally finishing his sentence. Looking at the unusually serious expression on Yu Lian's beautiful face, he was speechless.

Her hat was askew, and her hair was frizzy from being rubbed. Her face, beneath the wide brim of the hat, was pale and pink, barely the size of a palm, with a touch of baby fat. Her lips were an unnatural red, perhaps from fright, and her eyes were wet and watery as she looked at people, so nervous she seemed about to shrink into the ground.

With looks like that, people are too busy trying to prevent others from doing bad things to her.

It turned out she was a little crazy girl.

Yu Lian, having already gone this far, was determined to go all the way and nodded firmly.

"I think he's so handsome. I've never seen anyone look so good with silver hair, so I wanted to take a picture..."

To solidify her persona, she even licked him on the lips.

"Can I take a picture of you too? I think you're pretty handsome."

Her voice was soft, sweet, and cloying, with a slightly ethereal quality at the end, conveying a distinctly obedient and ingratiating quality.

He was truly speechless now. He lifted his thin eyelids to look at her for a few seconds, then suddenly laughed, finally realizing he was helpless against her.

"Junior, it's wrong to take pictures of people without their consent, even if it's just for appreciation. You need to get their permission first, like you are asking me now."

"However, since you asked, I agree."

Yu Lian was speechless.

She couldn't understand how a perfectly normal person could just let others take pictures of them. Did they think she was some kind of campus street photography account?

She had no sense of caution at all; she's a woman, after all!

She pursed her lips, not wanting anyone to see her feeling of being unlucky.

Fortunately, playing a lovesick girl isn't difficult.

"Really...! Well, I'll just take a quick picture..."

I'm a bit vengeful. I said I was just taking a random picture, but I deliberately chose a low angle that most people would find unflattering. I didn't give him a second to adjust before clicking the shutter button.

The finished image is visible at first glance.

He's incredibly handsome.

I captured the moment he obediently lowered his eyes; the shot was taken hastily, and the camera shakily went slightly out of focus. His jawline was clearer than Yu Lian's life plan, and his long neck and Adam's apple outlined clean lines that extended all the way to the collar of his shirt, which was only unbuttoned.

The stark white light of the streetlights shone into my eyes, yet it shone as brightly as a cold star.

Yu Lian: ...

If she saw this photo online, she would probably like and comment on it with a dating ad.

Her face fell, and she put away her phone to leave, saying, "Thank you..."

Before she could finish speaking, the wrist of the hand holding the phone was loosely encircled, neatly held through a layer of outer fabric, and immediately released after Yu Lian looked over.

"Could you send it to me to take a look as well?"

He took out his phone and waved it at Yu Lian. His smile was gentle and refined, making it hard for anyone to refuse.

So you really took pictures of her on the street? Yu Lian lowered her head angrily and scanned the QR code he handed her.



Gu Yitong was sitting at her desk when she heard the noise and looked over. She had a thick face mask on her face and was afraid to speak too loudly for fear of breaking the mask, so her voice was muffled.

"Tell me honestly, where did you go?"

Yu Lian tossed her hat onto the table, her forehead damp with sweat that made her bangs look messy. She sat up listlessly and said, "Anyway, we didn't go to any nice places."

My phone is overflowing with messages again. Even the new friend sent two, and the chat windows are at the top of the list, arranged by time.

"x: Xie Yu"

"x: Thank you, the photos are beautiful."

Yu Lian found the name familiar and leaned over to tug at Gu Yitong, who was sitting next to her: "Who is Xie Yu again?"

"Xie Yu?" Gu Yitong turned over with the force of the fall, looking at her with a hint of surprise. "Which Xie, which Yu? Our student council president?"

Yu Lian was dumbfounded. It wasn't for the title of student council president.

In her opinion, a university student union resume is not as valuable as a CET-4 or CET-6 certificate.

My jumbled thoughts finally came back to me: who was Xie Yu?

The name Xie Yu can be expanded to...

Suspected third-generation official, president of the S University Student Union, Yongyi, the top-performing student in the Law School, and Jessup International Best Debater—

I haven't finished writing yet; there's not enough space to write about so many people here.

"Xiao Lian's inner monologue: I'm glad my senior likes it quq"

It's rare for someone of the opposite sex to speak so kindly to someone they know so well.

Yu Lian didn't like studying, but she attended top schools from elementary to high school. Her family didn't own a house in a good school district, and her mother had to pull strings and borrow money to pay the tuition fees for each school she attended. She went to a district-level key elementary school, a city-level key middle school, and a provincial-level key high school. As the tuition fees snowballed and the debt piled up, the academic pressure became increasingly unbearable.

Sitting in class, head down, staring at the rows of words printed in the textbook, my vision blurred and the characters became distorted beyond recognition. It felt like my ears were stuffed with a water-soaked sponge; the teacher's voice was muffled and distant, replaced by a constant buzzing.

Because she has personally experienced how painful, desperate, and agonizing learning can be, she has a strong bias towards people who excel in their studies. This is how she views Lu Jiefei and Xie Yu.

In addition, Xie Yu's background is so impressive that it cannot be ignored.

Rumor has it that if you go back three generations, all his direct relatives are in the central government. If you don't treat him well, Yu Lian will become suspicious that he's been set up by higher-ups if there are no chopsticks when she orders takeout.

"x: likes"

After closing the chat window, Pei Shaoyuan started looking at other things, and he seemed to be going a little crazy at this point.

"Has he/she gotten to the dorm yet? He/She has rabies."

"Rabies: Is your phone just for you to check the time? You really don't reply to me at all."

"You have rabies: Pretending not to see it won't help. Remember what I told you? Come find me tomorrow."

"You have rabies: Are you still angry about those cheap bags? I told you, I'll take you to buy one tomorrow. Even if you want a house, I don't care, I'll swipe my card obediently, okay?"

Yu Lian's gaze lingered on the word "house" for a few seconds. It would be a lie to say she wasn't tempted, but while she could manage small transfers, she really didn't have the guts to buy a house.

If she takes the house, her baby will be in trouble.

Given Pei Shaoyuan's erratic behavior tonight, she wouldn't be surprised if he did anything.

She has a face that looks like she's never slept alone since she was an adult, but she's actually quite repressed.

Thinking of this, Yu Lian's lips throbbed with pain again, but since he had already chased her to her doorstep, she didn't dare to provoke him and gave him a perfunctory reply.

"Xiao Lian's inner monologue: Chatting with my roommate"

On the other side of the screen, Pei Shaoyuan's phone, turned up to maximum volume, made a loud noise that made his heart skip a beat. His first reaction was to breathe a sigh of relief.

He wasn't as composed as he appeared; tonight was also his first kiss. In a moment of impulsiveness, he kissed her, and only after seeing her off did he return to the hotel to resolve the issue of victory while reminiscing about the experience.

The conclusion I came to was that my kissing skills were really, really not that great. Before coming here, I had patiently watched so many kissing technique tutorials, but when it came to actual practice, my brain went completely blank, like it had been formatted, and I couldn't remember anything.

The moment I put my face against her, I wanted to lick, suck, and bite her, and I wanted to taste her sweet saliva.

He is unusually calm now.

This made me feel particularly guilty and anxious.

He was afraid his wife would leave him.

"Rabies: Got it. Did they not see the shape of your mouth?"

"You have rabies: Send me your class schedule."

The phone didn't ring, and in frustration, I started pressing the volume buttons again. The volume bar was filled to the top and started to shake.

It seems so.

"ha…"

Looking at the volume bar, he suddenly chuckled softly, a hint of pleasure in his voice. Men who miss their wives tend to associate anything they see with unspeakable images.

After waiting for a while, the phone was completely silent, so I could only scroll to my father's assistant's chat page.

"중국에있는내카드잔액좀확인해봐. 집한채살만큼충분한지. 모자라면좀더보내줘. (Check my card balance in country z. Is it enough to buy a house? If not, give me some more.)"

The reply came quickly, accompanied by a loud "ding-dong" sound from the phone's notification.

"Ugh... you little brat. 나귀청터지게할셈이야? (Ugh... you little brat, are you trying to kill me with your noise?)" He cursed into his phone, his brows furrowing, his handsome face darkening with impatience. He casually picked up the phone from the table with his long fingers to look at it.

Xiao Lian's inner monologue: I didn't see it.

Her expression immediately brightened. Unable to contain herself, she picked up her phone and sent a voice message, trying to sound fierce, but her tone was already quite seductive. She delivered the lines of questioning, yet her voice sounded cloyingly sweet, as if she were coaxing someone.

"And one more thing? I asked you to send me the class schedule, are you ignoring me?"

Just reading the words Yu Lian sent made me think she was incredibly cute. Imagining what kind of expression she would have now, I held my phone and looked at it again and again, my mouth unconsciously crooked.

I got too close, and another phone notification sounded, making my eardrums and head buzz.

"확인해보았습니다. 한번에너무큰금액을긁으시면위험거래로감지될수있습니다. I've confirmed. Residential properties under 60 billion won can be purchased without issue. However, if a large sum is swiped at once, it might be detected as a risky transaction because your card has just been unblocked. If absolutely necessary, I will have an employee process it for you in cash.

Pei Shaoyuan rubbed his ears, clicked his tongue, and his anger reignited. He pressed the voice button and cursed through gritted teeth.

"야이개새끼야, 요즘기강이풀려도단단히풀렸네? 그래서내앞에서처갖고이딴식으로까부는거야? 응? 입이방정이냐? (Ah, you little bastard, you’ve really lost your temper recently, haven’t you? That’s why you dare to jump around so wildly in front of me? Huh? Do you need a twitch in your mouth?)”

Thinking there might be some new instructions, the assistant respectfully clicked on the voice listener's notification: ...
