I don't want to be your wife.

"Hmph~" Su Mumu hummed proudly twice, crossing her arms to hug her non-existent chest. "Who told me to be the strongest little chef! To be honest, I can make every dish that has appeared in 'Cooking Master Boy'!"
"That's amazing?" Qin Feng had already lifted the lid of the casserole. "Then I want to eat the Great Universe Shumai tomorrow morning!"
"No problem, hahaha..." Su Mumu was once again speechless at Qin Feng's words, "Are you a dog?!"
The pleasant lunchtime passed just like that.
Chapter 25
After finishing our meal, it was 2:30 PM.
Su Mumu touched her protruding belly and lay down on the sofa.
"Hurry up, Mi Han still needs to take you to change your clothes," Qin Feng, who was lying next to Su Mumu, urged her.
"Why do I need to change clothes? Wasn't I just there to be a mascot and get some recognition?" Su Mumu asked, puzzled.
"You represent the eldest daughter of the Qin family, the adopted sister personally taken in by the Qin family head, and the future heir of the Qin family. You're going to discuss the allocation of educational resources and the improvement of the learning environment with the president of a 985 university, not to take a bath at a public bathhouse. Why don't you change into formal attire?" Qin Feng glanced at Su Mumu. "By the way, are you old enough to sign a proper contract?"
"Huh? When did I get so many identities?" Su Mumu asked in astonishment. "I signed contracts with both the pig and dog identities, but the housing contract was a proper one."
Su Mumu naturally understood that Qin Feng was asking whether her identity was reliable, but Su Mumu was still quite confident in the props given by the system. After all, she had been a girl for so long and had never had any problems.
“From the moment you agreed to go, you were one,” Qin Feng explained. “Maybe no one knows now, but after you finish talking this afternoon, everyone in the city with connections should know that the Qin family has a second young lady.”
"So you need to keep your background clean. People with ulterior motives will investigate your life experiences over the past eighteen years, and they might even investigate your ancestors."
Su Mumu remained reassured, after all, Qin Feng had investigated her identity before and found nothing, right? But just to be on the safe side, she still asked, "The day you went to register at school was the day after your period cramps subsided, wasn't it?"
"Hmm? Why are you asking this?" Qin Feng thought for a moment. "That's right, it was that day."
Su Mumu became even more certain that on the day Qin Feng discovered her identity, Su Mumu did not use her "real fake identity" in order to relieve her stomach pain. That is why Qin Feng could not find Su Mumu at school and went directly to Su Mu.
"Okay then, Brother Mihan is already downstairs, right? I'll be going now!" Su Mumu stood up, burped, waved lazily, and went out.
In the car.
"Mi Han, where are we going to change clothes?" Su Mumu sat in the passenger seat, looking at Mi Han who was driving. "What clothes do we need to change into? Qin Feng said my current identity seems to be quite important."
"Yes, the boss's parents founded Qin's more than ten years ago. By the time they passed away, Qin's had become a leading enterprise in the city and a company with significant influence throughout the province. As the newly emerged heiress of this company, you will be the focus of attention for a while."
"We're here, Mu Mu. Get out of the car. Someone will take you there. I won't come with you while you change your clothes."
"Okay, I'll go down then. That shop, right?" Su Mumu saw Mi Han nod, opened the door and got out of the car, walking towards the shop Mi Han pointed to.
"Hello, I'm Su Mumu. I should have made a reservation in advance. Could you please check it for me?" Su Mumu asked the young lady at the front desk who was about to fall asleep.
"Hmm? Okay~ Miss Su Mumu, hello, hello. Mr. Qin has already made an appointment for you. I'll take you there now!" After a while, the receptionist finally came to her senses and quickly led Su Mumu inside.
Upon entering the inner room, only a well-dressed woman stood there smiling. Seeing Su Mumu enter, she pushed her into the fitting room. "Miss Su, hurry up, we only have ten minutes. We also need to do your hair later. Just choose one of the three suits inside. Good luck!"
Looking at the three suits in the fitting room, Su Mumu immediately passed on the pencil skirt. Not only did Su Mumu dislike it, but Su Mumu's style was cute and innocent yet alluring, so pencil skirts were just too unsuitable for her!
Ultimately, Su Mumu chose a suit jacket with a short skirt similar to a knee-length pleated skirt, a khaki jacket, a white shirt with a red bow at the chest, and a navy blue plaid skirt with a touch of Japanese JK style, which was formal and reflected her student identity. Finally, the black over-the-knee socks were the key element, along with round-toed leather shoes.
OK! Su Mumu came out of the fitting room after changing her clothes and found that the girl waiting outside had an even brighter smile. "I knew you would choose this one!" Then she started to do her hair.
Smoothing down the few strands of hair that had become frizzy from changing clothes, and letting down the hair that Su Mumu had deliberately gathered, I was surprised to find that it was already enough to cover the back of her neck. So I simply curled it a couple of times with a curling iron, combed through her bangs, and clipped it with a small clip. That was it!
After finishing her makeover, Su Mumu stood in front of the mirror and realized where that familiar feeling came from—it was Tokiwadai! And that little hair clip at the end—wasn't that Misaka Mikoto's hair clip?! Su Mumu then turned to look at the innocent-looking stylist...
"Your twisted sense of humor?" Su Mumu raised an eyebrow.
"Oh dear, what are you talking about? I didn't know that. I just thought this outfit would definitely suit you, Miss Su. Look, doesn't it look great on you? I even had the skirt altered to be a little longer." The stylist covered her mouth and laughed.
"Alright, I don't think the principal can tell it's a cosplay outfit either." Su Mumu glanced at the time and had no choice but to leave.
Dressed up, Su Mumu arrived at the principal's office at 3:00 PM in Mi Han's car. Meanwhile, Qin Feng began his first challenge.
"Mr. Mi, and who is this?" The president of Peking University was already sixty years old, but he was tall and straight with a ruddy complexion. He did not look like an old man who was close to retirement. On the contrary, his scholarly air made him look younger.
"Principal Liang, I am Su Mumu, Qin Feng's younger sister. I am here today on behalf of my brother to discuss the Qin family's investment in educational resources at Peking University." Before Mi Han could speak, Su Mumu had already finished her self-introduction and extended her hand.
Principal Liang was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and gently took Su Mumu's hand. "So you are Miss Su. May I ask, Miss Su, how come I have never heard that President Qin has a younger sister?"
"It's quite a coincidence. I only met Brother Qin Feng last week. After we got to know each other, we figured we were both single, so we decided to live together." Su Mumu smiled as she looked at Principal Liang.
"What a coincidence! You and President Qin are destined to meet," Principal Liang naturally didn't believe Su Mumu's words, but anyone who could represent Qin Feng today would do. After all, all of Su Mumu's information would be presented to him after the meeting.
Next came the discussion between Mi Han and Principal Liang. Su Mumu sat in Qin Feng's seat, her eyes slightly narrowed as she watched the two discussing.
(I played Werewolf with my classmates until 2 a.m. yesterday. We played a high-level game and I was so dizzy and lightheaded that I didn't update much.)
Chapter 26
After the meeting ended, Su Mumu stood up again and smiled at Principal Liang, "Principal Liang, my university choice is Peking University. I look forward to your guidance in the future."
"Not at all, Miss Su plans to study at Peking University. She will surely become a source of pride for Peking University in the future." Principal Liang smiled, stroking his beard with his fingers, and saw Su Mumu off with a smile.
Back in the car, Su Mumu finally dropped her fake smile, stretched, and complained to Mi Han, "Sigh, they're all old foxes. If I don't pretend, I'm afraid they'll see through me."
"Mumu, you've surprised me. I didn't realize you were so nervous. You even dared to strike up a conversation with Principal Liang first." The Su Mumu beside me was completely unrecognizable from the person I knew at the negotiating table.
"What's there to be nervous about? I was mentally prepared after I agreed to Qin Feng's request," Su Mumu yawned. "I can't beat this kind of person anyway, so I just need to pretend that he can't see through me. He won't know which of the real me is, the one who was just now or the one I am in real life."
Mi Han began to worry about her boss. After all, Su Mumu didn't seem as weak and cute as she appeared today. Mi Han felt that if Su Mumu were to face off against an old fox like Principal Liang, she might not necessarily be at a disadvantage.
But what about Qin Feng? Judging from Qin Feng's reply just now, he must have failed again. Mi Han was also puzzled. Why did her boss seem to be able to predict future developments very accurately and always obtain some key information, but he seemed completely clueless about how to utilize his advantages?
Thinking of this, Mi Han thought of someone with high emotional intelligence, who was adaptable and very good at acquiring and utilizing information from the surroundings. So he turned to the girl in the passenger seat and said, "Mu Mu, do me a favor."
Help me improve my boss's abilities.
"Huh?" Su Mumu was dumbfounded.
"Don't you think the boss has a bit low emotional intelligence?" Mi Han asked tentatively, but she didn't expect this probing to elicit such a strong response.
Su Mumu, sitting in the passenger seat, nodded as if she had gone mad, "Yes, yes, yes, it's too low. It's only because I'm a roommate that it's so low. If it were anyone else, they would have ganked him to death long ago."
He's usually so quiet, lying on the sofa without saying a word. When he does talk, it's always arguing with me. How can a guy be so clueless about how to please a girl?
During my period, they finally made me a cup of brown sugar water, but they didn't even taste it themselves before bringing it to me. It was so sweet it almost killed me. And they didn't show any concern at all until my period ended!
Putting everything else aside, if he were living with a beautiful girl like me, he should at least show some attentiveness, right? But instead, he pushed me away when I tried to get close, acting like a spoiled little kid. Is this really a man? I'm starting to doubt if he's even…
The conversation turned into hushed whispers, but Mi Han could tell that Su Mumu was extremely dissatisfied with Qin Feng. So she egged Su Mumu on, "Then let's work together. After all, he's my boss and your roommate. If he's more emotionally intelligent, wouldn't everyone be happier?"
I'll get you the pass, so you can live outside the school openly and won't need to climb over the wall every day. You can just take your boss out for a walk every night and help him integrate into society.
Both Su Mumu and Mi Han could sense Qin Feng's aloofness. At school, he would either try to find out about Su Mumu or sit alone in a corner. He rarely went out. This wasn't just being aloof; it seemed that Qin Feng's life was only about exchanging benefits, and nothing else mattered.
While Su Mumu was still pondering, Mi Han had already driven the car downstairs and happened to run into Qin Feng, who was driving back. So Su Mumu simply pulled Qin Feng along and asked Mi Han to drive the car back to the mall they had visited last time.
Perhaps because it was Monday and it wasn't lunchtime yet, the streets of the university town were much quieter than usual. So, Su Mumu decided to take Qin Feng to the board game arcade to play together!
Making friends might be a difficult problem for many people, but for Su Mumu, there are ways everywhere. After all, Su Mumu is a social butterfly! She's not stupid anymore after becoming Su Mumu. In Su Mumu's view, strangers become friends once they start playing together. Therefore, going to a board game arcade and sharing a table to play board games is undoubtedly a good way to enhance relationships.
However, Su Mumu was clearly wrong. Although Qin Feng's emotional intelligence was lacking, his IQ was high. Except for Su Mumu's Oscar-worthy disguise, Qin Feng could see through most of them. After two rounds, once Qin Feng had figured out everyone's skill level, his lines were roughly like this:
"Based on my observation, Number One's gaming skills are not high. No, I mean Number One doesn't know how to play. No, Number One can't act. Yes, Number One is rather stupid. Ugh, anyway, I think Number One isn't lying when he says he's a commoner."
Then Qin Feng was dragged out by Number One and her boyfriend.
The key issue is that Qin Feng himself has no self-awareness whatsoever. After being voted out, his last words were filled with such and such statements. Although Su Mumu could see that Qin Feng was trying, others didn't know.
Whenever this happens, Su Mumu always steps in to smooth things over, saying, "Everyone, please don't get angry, let's continue the game. My friend isn't very good at speaking, so I apologize to everyone."
It was fine once or twice, but later Su Mumu couldn't stand the targeted looks from all the players, so she had to leave with Qin Feng.
"Why don't you just say that Number One is stupid and not suitable for playing games, and send her away and replace her with someone else?" Su Mumu looked at Qin Feng, who had an innocent look on his face, and was furious.
"She's just stupid. Besides, didn't I think it was better to say it directly and change the wording?" Qin Feng hadn't realized his mistake.
"You're the stupid one! What's the difference between what you said and calling someone stupid? Now I know why Mi Han said you couldn't close the deal." Su Mumu patted her forehead and sighed. "Emotional intelligence, simply put, is knowing what to say to whom, understand?"
When dealing with girls like the one just now, you need to be more tactful in your words. If you simply say that the girl is young, inexperienced, and naive, and wouldn't lie, would she get angry?
I brought you out here to hone your speaking skills, not to teach you how to argue with others. Now, for dinner, my requirement is that you must round down the bill!
Su Mumu led Qin Feng to a Chengdu snack shop on the street, found a two-person table in the corner, and started ordering.
"Mapo tofu, eggplant with minced meat, and if you don't eat spicy food, I'll give you some greens. For snacks, I'll have brown sugar glutinous rice cake, crispy pork, and two bowls of Dan Dan noodles. No rice, OK, that'll be exactly 74. Your task is to persuade the merchant to round down the bill when you pay."
"Then why did you order by scanning a QR code?"
Su Mumu looked at the dishes on her phone that she had almost paid for and gasped sharply.
Chapter 27
After realizing what had happened, Su Mumu exited the phone ordering page, called the waiter, selected the dishes she had just planned to order from the menu, and handed them to the waiter.
"Qin Feng, for restaurants like this that offer electronic QR code ordering and provide receipts, it's generally not recommended to round down the price. This is because these restaurants keep complete records of all their transactions, and if you round down, the waiter will have to pay the difference out of their own pocket."
So, aside from this time, please avoid mentioning rounding down in these stores in the future. Lower your expectations a bit this time; politely suggest rounding down without upsetting the server.
As they were talking, the first dish arrived: Dan Dan noodles. The noodles clumped together very quickly, so they needed to be mixed and eaten fast. "Cook it well, it's Chunfu..."
Before Su Mumu could finish her sentence, Qin Feng interrupted her: "Eat first, then we can talk. I can't hear you now."
Su Mumu swallowed the noodles in her mouth in a few bites, took a sip of water to catch her breath, and said, "You don't understand, Dan Dan noodles are only the best when they're hot."
Then Su Mumu took another bite of noodles and said, "Go on, the first thing is the issue of how to address someone."
This is a university town, and we are still officially senior high school students, so as long as you are not obviously an old aunt or grandma, you can call me senior. Even if some of you don't look that young, as long as you feel you are not thirty, you can call me senior.
Secondly, there's the topic. If the other person says they're a freshman and called you "senior" by the wrong name, you can simply say you're a senior in high school and plan to apply to universities here too, then ask about their university, and the conversation will naturally flow. If they don't respond, you can ask about their part-time jobs, or inquire about the salary and benefits at their shop, and you'll have plenty of topics to talk about.
At this point, Su Mumu took another bite of noodles. The dishes were almost all served, so Su Mumu decided to focus on eating first and see how Qin Feng handled things later. "That's all I have to say. The rest is up to you."
The two of them finished the not-so-large meal in no time. Of course, most of it went into Qin Feng's stomach, since Su Mumu, being a girl, ate much less than Qin Feng.
Su Mumu glanced around and pointed to the girl sitting at the counter. "She's the one. Go call that senior student over to pay the bill. Everyone else is in uniform, but she's in casual clothes. She looks like she's not someone important; she's probably the manager or something."
Upon hearing this, Qin Feng took a deep breath and was about to get up when the girl Su Mumu pointed to walked over first, with a faint smile on her face, "Mr. Qin, are you finished eating?"
The girl opposite him calling him "President Qin" choked Qin Feng off, leaving him speechless. He could only stammer, "Um, cough cough, um, I've finished eating."
Su Mumu, sitting opposite Qin Feng, was completely bewildered and speechless. "Wait a minute, what does President Qin mean?"
The girl opposite smiled and replied, "This building we're in now is all Qin's property. Although we're just tenants and not Qin's employees, it's still not a loss to call him President Qin."
Now the awkward situation fell on Su Mumu, who stared at Qin Feng in confusion, "This is your Qin family's territory and you didn't even tell me?"
Qin Feng could only chuckle awkwardly, "You didn't ask, did you? Besides, most store managers wouldn't recognize me, right? What's wrong with you, Miss?"
The store manager just smiled and said, "My father's surname is Zhang. Two months ago, when I accompanied my father to a meeting in the provincial capital, I had the opportunity to meet General Manager Qin among the attendees."
Seeing this messed-up scene, Su Mumu couldn't help but curse, "Damn it, Aqua, what have I even done all day?! Ugh~"
Miss Zhang, who was standing next to her, asked curiously, "Aqua? Whose name is that?"
"Just some silly goddess who doesn't wear panties to avoid showing them, not an important character, just expressing my feelings about my balls... my breasts hurting." Su Mumu slumped weakly into the chair.
After finishing her meal and returning home, the lazy Su Mumu sprawled on the sofa, reflecting on her day. She'd become acquainted with Principal Liang of Peking University; if there were any independent admissions in the future, a word with the Qin family would at least prevent her from being unfairly eliminated through underhanded means.
As for Qin Feng, there seems to be no progress in his training today. He's not a team player when it comes to board games. When I asked him to find a shop to negotiate a price, it turned out to be a shop on his own land. Sigh, there's still a long way to go!
"Mumu, a package has arrived!" Qin Feng walked over from the doorway carrying a large box. "What is this? It's so big, we have to handle it with care."
"My package... Have I bought anything this big recently?" Su Mumu thought for a moment, "Oh, I remember! My PS5! I won this PS5 in a Pixiv raffle!"
Su Mumu, a long-time user with a six-digit UID, has only won one prize a few days ago since Pixiv introduced its lottery feature. Her homepage displays nearly ten thousand posts, almost all of which are about forwarding lottery entries, yet she has only won once.
"Qin Feng, Qin Feng, come help me install my PS5, I want to play games! I'll go find someone to borrow an account first!" Su Mumu called out to her laborer, Qin Feng.
Qin Feng, who had just finished getting ready to take a shower, was stopped by Su Mumu. "Can't you pretend yourself? You're supposed to be a shut-in."
“First of all, you can’t call a pretty girl a shut-in.” Su Mumu stopped what she was doing and looked at Qin Feng. “Is what girls do called being a shut-in? Secondly, it’s not that I can’t do it, I’m just afraid I can’t lift that box.”
Upon hearing Su Mumu's explanation, Qin Feng had no choice but to abandon his plan to take a shower and instead helped the girl set up the PS5. After working on it for a while, Qin Feng got up to take a shower, and Su Mumu shoved a controller into his hand, while she held the other controller connected to the computer. "Don't go, play games with me."
Su Mumu didn't say much, just stared at Qin Feng with her beautiful eyes blinking, making Qin Feng unable to stand it any longer. He had no choice but to stop and play games with Su Mumu again.
"Oh ho ho, great! Qin Feng, what do you want to play? Let's find a game that can be played online, emmm, how about Fall Guys! Fall Guys was free on ePay a while ago, okay, let's play Fall Guys then!"
Although she was asking Qin Feng what he planned to play, Su Mumu didn't give him a chance to speak. She decided to play Fall Guys on her own and then directly opened the game.
The game was fun, but only for players like Su Mumu. For Qin Feng, the laughter was filled with torment, and Su Mumu's laughter was filled with Qin Feng's torment.
"Qin Feng, tell me, how did you manage to descend from the first layer to the last layer of the hive? If you hadn't dodged even a fraction of the way, you wouldn't have ended up not even occupying a single square across three layers."
Su Mumu was both angry and amused as she watched Qin Feng, who had initially held a significant advantage, suddenly drop to the fifth level to fight for the last elimination spot.
But Qin Feng's competitive spirit kicked in. Lately, everything had been going wrong for him, and he'd even been labeled as having low emotional intelligence. Now, he couldn't even win a game. Qin Feng was really angry; in other words, he was getting carried away with the game.
Chapter 28 Staying Up All Night
At 1:30 a.m., Su Mumu, dressed in disheveled clothes, lay sprawled on the sofa, while Qin Feng, standing beside her, exhaled a breath of hot air, his face etched with exhaustion.
