Near ten o'clock.
When the sunlight outside had beco bright and Su City entering midsumr carried a hint of stuffiness, Su Mo finally appeared guiltily at the door of room 1802 in Weiyang Apartnts, eting with her landlord employer Chu Tianlan after being absent from work for two days out of three.
As soon as the door opened, Su Mo heard Chu Tianlan's gentle reminder filled with virtuous charm.
"Junior Su Mo, you're late. Your second class today, you can't make it now!"
Although Chu Tianlan spoke while slightly turning her head with a flower-like smile, appearing as a gentle, virtuous neighborly big sister, perhaps because becoming a girl made her more sensitive, Su Mo could still hear a hint of resentnt in Chu Tianlan's gentle words.
Su Mo felt both guilty and sowhat helpless about this.
Perhaps due to the sleeping function of the 'Loka Necklace,' Su Mo discovered that her sleep quality had obviously improved recently. Usually she could wake up at 5 o'clock, but yesterday she woke up at 7. Today she slept until 9 o'clock when her wife Muyao had already gone to work without her knowing.
Just now, after playing around with the scheming loli senior An Xiaoqian, although Su Mo's body-enhancent 'Skin Like Congealed Fat' skill had a mark-fading effect, since it hadn't been 24 hours yet, Su Mo still needed to wash thoroughly.
After dawdling through a bath and drawing a big turtle on the face of An Xiaoqian, who had fallen asleep while making gas all night after their clothing contest, ti unknowingly reached ten o'clock.
Now facing gentle Senior Chu's reminder, having been absent for two consecutive days, Su Mo silently made a plan in her heart to definitely set an alarm tonight.
Thinking that today's Chu Tianlan hadn't gone to Su University because of her, Su Mo couldn't help but say guiltily:
"Senior Chu, I'm sorry. Yesterday I couldn't tutor Ningning and Chenchen because I had to accompany An Xiaoqian making gas, and I overslept this morning too."
Chu Tianlan standing at the door was originally sowhat dissatisfied.
After chatting with Yun Xia yesterday, she had been looking forward to Su Mo coming to find her at 8 o'clock this morning.
That way, she could have a good chat with Su Mo about 'opening a store' related matters and go out for a stroll.
Although Chu Tianlan herself had no entrepreneurial experience, as soone from a rchant family and as a rchant's daughter, plus being Student Council President, she still had unique insights in business matters.
Now Su Mo was nearly two hours later than expected, disrupting Chu Tianlan's planned rhythm.
Originally, Chu Tianlan wanted to give today's 'late for school' Su Mo a small lesson.
Today's weather was very nice. The gentle sunlight shining on Su Mo's pale skin had a powdery texture. Su Mo's face was small but not gaunt, with so baby fat—if she could pinch it, the feeling would definitely be particularly good.
Chu Tianlan had always wanted to pinch it, and now she finally had a legitimate opportunity.
Just as Chu Tianlan instinctively extended her gentle hand toward Su Mo, wanting to knead her a bit, when she placed her gaze once again on Su Mo at the door with her little head lowered looking guilty, she froze.
Because at this mont in Chu Tianlan's vision, Su Mo slowly transford into a two-dinsional Q-version girl image.
The girl was tightly closing her eyes, placing her two pale little hands in front of her mouth like praying, with fine beads of sweat on her forehead—clearly extrely frightened, just like a certain emoji from the sixth row, first position of so platform.
Seeing such Su Mo, Chu Tianlan couldn't help but recall an introduction from a psychology book two days ago.
Psychology has a very peculiar phenonon called cute aggression.
For example, when you see sothing extrely cute, despite loving it trendously and your protective instincts exploding, you can't help wanting to sit on it.
This is actually a natural reaction of the brain regulating emotions—to prevent a single emotion from being too intense and causing loss of control, the brain automatically produces opposite emotions to achieve balance, preventing you from being killed by cuteness.
When first seeing this theory, Chu Tianlan only found it sowhat exaggerated. After all, she'd never had such psychological reactions growing up.
But seeing current Su Mo, even Chu Tianlan, who was usually emotionally stable, was truly overwheld by Su Mo's cuteness.
At the sa ti, the urge to bully in her heart beca even stronger.
As an adult, Chu Tianlan never liked shortchanging herself.
After brief consideration, Chu Tianlan pulled Su Mo into room 1802, then said softly:
"Junior Su Mo, being absent for two consecutive days and late for class today, I need to give you so small punishnt!"
While speaking, Chu Tianlan directly extended her gentle hand and began lightly pulling Su Mo's pale little cheeks.
It must be said, Su Mo's skin texture was really good.
Tender like a baby's, yet smooth like silk with a cool sensation.
Originally Chu Tianlan just wanted to simply pinch Su Mo's face as mild punishnt.
But as she pinched, Chu Tianlan surprisingly discovered that in her eyes, Su Mo's big-head emoji actually changed, transforming from a praying girl to one with dizzy symbols in her eyes, looking not very smart and swaying.
Seeing this unexpected change, Chu Tianlan's eyes couldn't help but flash with brightness.
Because if this emoji could change, wouldn't that an when she had a heart-to-heart with Su Mo tonight, she could unlock more cute expressions!
She might even unlock that blushing, indescribable steamy version?
Thinking this, Chu Tianlan couldn't help getting excited.
Ring ring ring~
But just then, a crisp phone ringtone rang inappropriately, interrupting Chu Tianlan's fantasy.
Su Mo, whose face was being rubbed by Chu Tianlan, although Chu Tianlan's hand strength was just right and more like massage, as a forr boy, being rubbed by a girl was still sowhat embarrassing.
Feeling her phone vibrating in her pocket, Su Mo answered without even looking.
"Su Mo, today is Friday. You haven't forgotten about your confession eting at tonight's welco party, have you?"
As soon as the call connected, Su Mo heard her advisor Lu Mingyuan's voice from the other side.
Hearing him directly ntion the confession eting, Su Mo was slightly stunned.
The reason for her daze wasn't that Su Mo had forgotten about the confession eting due to too many 'entrepreneurial' matters these past two days.
In fact, since having the challenge system and always causing trouble, Su Mo had written quite a few self-criticisms.
In a sense, practice made perfect for Su Mo. Her self-criticisms were written better than her Chinese essays.
Two days ago, before sleeping with her sister Su Su, Su Mo had already written the three-minute self-criticism confession for the stage and sent it to Lu Mingyuan.
But now hearing her advisor specifically ntion the confession eting gave Su Mo an ominous premonition. She felt that with her advisor's personality, specially calling probably ant no good news.
The next second, Su Mo with her accurate sixth sense found her prediction ca true.
"Student Su Mo, the self-criticism draft you sent was deed insufficiently profound after school discussion. To help you more clearly understand your mistakes, as your advisor I specially wrote a confession plan for you. Use mine instead!"
After saying this, as if afraid Su Mo would refuse, Lu Mingyuan directly sent a file to Su Mo's WeChat and hung up.
Su Mo, ending the call, instinctively opened the file.
Then she froze completely in place.
As soone who kept a low profile, Su Mo had never given speeches on stage before.
Originally Su Mo's self-criticism confession was only about 500 words, but what Lu Mingyuan sent now was nearly 5000 words.
Looking at this content, Su Mo felt everything go dark.
Such a long script—could she really finish reading it under so many people's gazes?
This was personal vendetta, this was definitely personal vendetta!
More importantly, rejecting her script and cutting it this close to the deadline.
Advisor, you're really too despicable!!!
Just as the tearful Su Mo's cute emoji was starting to roll around, Chu Tianlan, who had heard the entire conversation between Su Mo and Lu Mingyuan, couldn't help getting excited.
Because it seed Su Mo wasn't good at public speaking!
And this happened to be her strong suit—why not let her provide good guidance?
Thinking this, Chu Tianlan silently gave Lu Mingyuan a thumbs up, gently took Su Mo's pale little hand, and walked toward her room, saying as they walked:
"Little Mo, it seems you're not very good at public speaking. Let help you overco this difficulty, okay?"
Looking at the gentle neighborly big sister who was carrying her princess-style toward the bedroom without question while speaking, although Chu Tianlan smiled very gently, for so reason Su Mo had the feeling of being targeted by a fox.
However, Su Mo quickly shook her head about this.
It couldn't be. Although Senior Chu's constitution was sowhat special, fundantally she was the most proper person.
Saying she'd help shouldn't involve bad intentions!!!
And most importantly, it was dayti now.
But how exactly does one train public speaking ability?
