Miss Lin is a hunky VTuber today?

To be honest, she really didn't expect that a VUP applying for a job would be asked to sing such a song during their talent show. Goodness, isn't this person afraid of getting into trouble?

"Let me emphasize again, we are ESC, not XP."

Sister Feng, who was at another table, turned around with her rice bowl in hand and said earnestly.

A grain of white rice still clung to the corner of her mouth, making her unexpectedly adorable.

"That's not the point at all! Sister Feng! What happened to the promise that the interview content would be kept completely confidential!?"

"Wind Chime asked, looking utterly devastated."

"It's confidential, isn't that written in the contract?"

Sister Feng nodded and responded earnestly.

"Then why was this song released?"

"Oh, because our company's interview only covers four things: Japanese, English, appearance, and anime/manga enthusiast level. The singing part at the end was requested by me as the operations manager, not the interviewer."

"so?"

"So this is obviously not part of the interview; it's just a friendly exchange between the operations manager and a future colleague."

Sister Feng shrugged and turned back to eat her rice.

"Aaaaaah! Liars! You're all liars!"

The wind chime lay on the table, roaring in despair.

"Hahahahahahahahaha~ hiccup~!"

The others, especially Xueyue, laughed particularly loudly, and even burped because they were laughing so hard from eating too much.

"Snow Moon!"

"Well, well, don't worry about it, Fengling-chan. After all, our ESC company is a 'harmonious and friendly' company~"

Xueyue suppressed a laugh, waved her hand, and then ran to the side to laugh again after finishing her sentence.

"Lin-chan".

"Ok?"

Xu Lin looked at the young lady who was approaching and gave a puzzled snort.

"Don't you feel any remorse for turning such an innocent operations person into such a ruthless individual?"

Think back to a few months ago when she was a serious and hardworking woman who was very good at handling procedures and documents but was too straightforward and naive in her operational methods. Now look at this scheming Feng Jie who makes good use of human weaknesses and deceives Liver, leaving a dark history on his face.

The young lady couldn't help but feel extremely heartbroken!

Why does my conscience hurt?

Xu Lin tilted her head in confusion, but soon she took the young lady's hand and placed it on her left chest.

"And in the end, there is only one heart beating in my chest."

"That's the one that loves you."

"So tacky www"

Caught off guard by Xu Lin's unexpected sweet talk, the young lady blushed and pushed her away with a coquettish laugh, complaining in a spoiled manner.

"Is it tacky? I think it's alright."

"Well, never mind, next up is Frost and Snow's video, right?"

Xu Lin shrugged indifferently, but under the table, he held the young lady's hand tightly and never let go.

"Yes, senior, but I don't think my video was very good."

Shuangxue nodded, her attitude somewhat indifferent.

After all, this kid has the least amount of scandals in ESC, basically none at all. Even during the test livestream, he only made a crazy declaration of complete control, nothing special.

Perhaps this is the real-life version of the saying, "As long as I have a low standard, you won't find any of my embarrassing past experiences."

"Oh, that one www"

Xueyue glanced at Shuangxue's bangs shimmering in the dappled sunlight in the living room, and her deep black eyes, and shook her head helplessly.

"At the time, I was thinking, how could such a cute little boy turn out to be such a pervert?"

Xu Lin has already posted Shuangxue's video, but it hasn't generated much of a response.

We've all seen plenty of pure perversion, so there's nothing surprising about it.

"Perhaps it's just my nature, Senior Xueyue. After all, I'm a grown man, so isn't it normal for me to be a little perverted?"

"How about we become sisters starting today?"

In response to Shuangxue's remarks, Xueyue simply leaned over the table, glanced at him sideways, and asked with a smile.

"I think you look great in it. You didn't look out of place at all in women's clothes yesterday."

"Please let me refuse!"

Chapter 62, Section 358: Frost and Snow's Dark History

The people in ESC Club have never been kind-hearted people; this is something that Shuangxue knew very well after meeting the first generation of three members.

As a cute boy, Shuangxue is very popular among girls in this era of popular internet culture, where many girls her age would rather be their mothers than their lovers or idols.

While not many girls would actually consider him a potential boyfriend, many would dote on him like a younger brother—even though Frost and Snow, whose birthday is in January, is much older than most of them.

Not to mention her uncles and aunts. Although her family's financial situation was only considered average for the middle class in the area, Shuangxue never lacked anything because of the doting love of her relatives.

And frost and snow, growing up in such an environment, naturally grew up crooked.

As a child, he was a complete brat. What can you do? What do kids know? When you can do anything and be forgiven without taking any responsibility, how many adults in their thirties or forties, whose values ​​have already been formed, can still hold themselves to the same standards as before?

If the plot continues in this way, Shuangxue will eventually become an ordinary rebellious teenager, develop a lawless personality, break everyone's hearts, and then return everything she had gained by taking advantage of being pampered.

But he was lucky to meet a cousin who had returned from studying abroad.

To put it simply, this cousin is an independent, self-reliant, highly intelligent, and cunning otaku girl who loves anime and manga. That's right, that's all the labels she has, because Shuangxue really can't find a suitable adjective to describe her cousin.

At first, this cousin liked Shuangxue quite a bit when she returned to China and met her. At that time, Shuangxue had just passed puberty and was twelve or thirteen years old, which was the beginning of his rebellion. It was the most immature time of a person's life, so naturally, he was educated.

Shuangxue still doesn't really want to recall the specifics of how he was educated, but since it is his memoir, these dark histories still need to be supplemented.

My cousin, oh, my dear cousin didn't do anything too outrageous to Shuangxue at first. She just made a bet with Shuangxue: if he got into the top ten in his grade at the end of the semester, she would grant him one wish; if he didn't, he would have to grant her one request.

Spoiled and never having studied hard in her life, how could Shuangxue possibly fulfill this impossible condition? Besides, children are prone to losing interest quickly.

So, naturally, he failed.

My cousin's condition was: "You are not allowed to come within five meters of me again!"

Yes, that's the condition that's quite cruel to children. The allure of black stockings and beautiful legs is just too great for a young boy just beginning to experience love. Back then, Frost and Snow's SP attributes had already begun to show.

But how could Shuangxue, who had been spoiled since childhood, be willing to be treated so coldly by someone? So she used the most effective method she had ever used.

'cry'

Yes, many times when children cry, it's not because their tear ducts are well-developed and contain a lot of water, but simply because they have profoundly discovered in their short lives that tears are a powerful weapon against adults. As long as they cry miserably enough, one or two adults will always appear to fulfill their wishes.

Children are creatures of experience—and adults are too.

Once children understand that tears are not a cure-all and that crying cannot solve problems, they will learn to hold back their tears.

However, everything has two sides; leaning to either side is wrong. Demanding that children be obedient without fulfilling their wishes can also leave psychological scars on them.

So it's really a scary thing that you don't need to take any exams to become a parent.

Keke, get back to business.

Although tears are usually a magic bullet, this time, Xiao Shuangxue's tears didn't get him to touch those beautiful legs in black stockings. Instead, it was his older cousin who, with her sharp words, persuaded his parents to work on Shuangxue's temperament, and the most powerful argument, of course, was her grades.

A child's report card ranking near the bottom of the grade is a perpetual source of pain for parents. There's no way around it; wanting one's child to succeed is human nature, and it's understandable.

At this moment, Xiao Shuangxue finally realized for the first time that tears are not a panacea.

Don't assume he's stupid just because he has bad grades. He's probably still keeping his distance from girls right now, so how could he possibly appreciate the allure of black stockings?

Then came the second bet. As Lu Xun once said, "Chinese people all like to reconcile." So this time, Shuangxue was full of confidence that her cousin's goal of ranking in the top five of the class was achievable.

Then. . .

Frost and snow have succeeded.

From paying close attention in class to studying diligently in tutoring classes, and then to completing assignments conscientiously, I used every means to improve my grades and successfully transformed from the bottom five to the top five in the class. My temperament also became more stable through endless studying.

But just as he held up his report card and looked longingly at his cousin, making the request to 'see her beautiful legs in black stockings,' his cousin...

They immediately called his parents and gave Xiaoshuangxue a mixed doubles beating.

"That's your cousin!"

Shuangxue still remembers his father's gritted teeth and his cousin leaning back on the sofa, slurping his milk tea and eating his cookies, watching him get beaten with a smug look on her face.

The beautiful legs in black stockings swayed right in front of him, seemingly so close yet so unattainable.

At this moment, Xiao Shuangxue's tears truly fell.

After a disastrous first year of junior high, enduring the pranks from her older cousin in her second year, and surviving the battles of wits with her cousin in her third year, Shuangxue miraculously discovered that her adolescence seemed to have passed by unusually smoothly.

Nonsense! All my energy was focused on studying and outsmarting my cousin. I didn't have the energy to do anything reckless. How could things not be peaceful?

It wasn't until high school, after thoroughly studying Sun Tzu's Art of War and understanding that knowing oneself and one's enemy is the key to victory, that Shuangxue, through some investigation, discovered that her cousin, who was staying at her house, was actually a police officer in charge of cybersecurity management in the city.

She studied social psychology for her undergraduate degree in China and computer science abroad. Her current doctoral supervisor's name is [name missing].

Xu Lieye.

Yes, that's right, it's Miss Lin's amazing uncle, this amazing man has appeared again!

After finding the name Xu Lieye through my own methods and seeing his series of achievements, I naturally came across an anecdote.

It was published in the local tabloid.

The title is: [Dr. Xu Lieye's nephew accidentally uncovers a gang's business deal; all those involved have now been arrested.]
