After scolding Peach Jam for a full three minutes, Su Huaizhou felt thoroughly relieved.
She finally managed to vent her frustration.
At the sa ti, Jiang Miao had also clarified the current issue between himself and Senior Sister.
[Peach Jam]: So, Boss, what should I do now?
[Peach Jam]: Is there any way to change Senior Sister’s mind about not wanting to date?
It’s already changed. Su Huaizhou curled her lips into a smirk, but she couldn’t say it outright under this identity.
[Congee Boss]: Since you’re already pretending to be a couple, you should make the most of this identity.
[Peach Jam]: What do you an?
[Congee Boss]: You’re her pretend boyfriend now, right?
[Peach Jam]: Yeah.
[Congee Boss]: What does a regular boyfriend usually do for his girlfriend?
[Peach Jam]: What?
[Congee Boss]: You don’t know???
[Peach Jam]: I’ve never been in a relationship… Just like dates, movies, shopping, stuff like that?
[Congee Boss]: Those are fine, but you can’t do them all the ti.
[Congee Boss]: Can’t you occasionally find so ti to buy her a cup of bubble tea and show her so concern?
[Peach Jam]: That’s all it takes?
[Congee Boss]: I’m just giving you an example.
[Congee Boss]: The key is that you have to use this pretend boyfriend role to do things that a real boyfriend would do, like taking care of her, showing concern, and so on.
[Congee Boss]: Get her to gradually get used to having you as her boyfriend.
[Congee Boss]: Once enough ti passes and she’s gotten used to you being her boyfriend, won’t becoming a real boyfriend be a natural step?
[Peach Jam]: Really?
[Peach Jam]: Will this work?
[Congee Boss]: You make it sound like you have other ideas.
[Peach Jam]: I’ll try when I have ti.
[Congee Boss]: Keep it up! I’m rooting for you!
…
Jiang Miao imdiately felt full of confidence after getting a strategy from Congee Boss.
But since he hadn’t released today’s chapters yet, he could only finish dinner and continue the arduous work of writing, having no ti to implent the strategy.
By the ti he finished his 3,000 words for the day and looked up, it was already ten o’clock in the evening.
Forget it. Dating is such a hassle.
Jiang Miao tidied up his bed, took out his phone, and opened Honor of Kings. He poked his head out of the bed curtain and asked, “Dog, Kings, you coming?”
“Coming! I just finished a ga,” Xun Liang shouted from below. “Brother Jiang, I’ll invite you.”
Soon, Jiang Miao was added to the team and noticed another person in the three-player team. “Who is this?”
“My wife.”
“… Fuck!”
Seeing that the ga screen had already entered the hero selection phase, Jiang Miao felt very uncomfortable as he listened to Xun Liang and his girlfriend feeding him dog food through his earphones.
When will I be able to pursue Senior Sister?
He really wanted to be in a relationship.
Just writing romance novels was starting to feel a little insufficient.
…
Thursday, September 25th.
It was raining heavily outside, and the temperature had suddenly dropped, bringing a bit of a chill.
Jiang Miao stood on the balcony for a while and stretched to loosen up his muscles and bones after spending the entire afternoon writing.
As for his basketball ga, it was naturally canceled.
With the rain and the entire school only having one indoor basketball court, there was no place to play.
Every departnt had its own basketball gas to host, and the sports association of the Departnt of Accounting was half a beat too slow. Today’s indoor basketball court had already been fully booked.
With the semifinals and finals, the Departnt of Accounting still had three more gas.
Originally, everything was supposed to end on Sunday.
But from the looks of it, if the rain didn’t stop, the sports association might only be able to apply for two indoor basketball court slots before National Day.
The finals would likely be delayed until after National Day.
Jiang Miao didn’t mind this at all, or rather, he was happy to see it happen.
At least, there would basically be no other trivial matters before his novel went premium.
On the other hand, Su Huaizhou seed to be quite unhappy that the rain had caused the basketball ga to be postponed.
In order to watch Junior Brother’s basketball ga, she had specially rescheduled the debate team’s mock debate to the evening.
And this was what happened?
The worst part was that after she had nothing to do in the afternoon, Shen Yu dragged her to the library to study.
In the evening, Su Huaizhou returned to the first floor where she had placed her umbrella and found that it had been stolen.
Shen Yu was heading back to the dorm, while Su Huaizhou needed to go to the departnt building to prepare for the mock debate, so they weren’t going the sa way.
There was no way for them to share an umbrella.
“What should we do?” Shen Yu asked quietly. “Should I get Fengfeng to bring an umbrella?”
After having her umbrella stolen and being stuffed with dog food, Su Huaizhou’s face darkened, and her mood soured.
“No need.” She suddenly had an idea, took out her phone, and found Junior Brother’s WeChat. “You can go back first. Don’t worry about .”
“Oh.” Shen Yu took a quick glance at Su Huaizhou’s phone and instantly understood. “Then I’m leaving.”
[Zhouzhou Loves Congee]: Are you close to the library? My umbrella was stolen. Could you co pick up with one?
Jiang Miao, who had just finished dinner, received this ssage and imdiately felt energized.
[Miaomiao is Deep in Thought]: Sure, please wait. I’ll be right there.
Yesterday, on Wednesday, he had planned to implent Congee Boss’s strategy.
But Senior Sister had a full schedule on Wednesday, leaving her with hardly any ti.
Thus, Jiang Miao’s plan kept getting put on hold.
Today’s basketball ga would have been a great opportunity, but the rain had ruined his plan.
However, with the mock debate tonight, Jiang Miao planned to find a chance to gather material with Senior Sister.
Unexpectedly, an opportunity ca.
But before he left, he encountered a problem.
Should he bring one umbrella or two?
Jiang Miao hesitated for a mont and thought about the strategy from Congee Boss. After thinking about it, he decided to bring just one umbrella.
He went downstairs to the entrance of Xiuye Commons and hurried to the library.
Walking up the steps with the umbrella, Jiang Miao spotted Senior Sister’s slender figure among the crowd.
Today, Su Huaizhou looked as she usually did.
Cropped pants, white T-shirt, high ponytail.
She looked simple and refreshing, completely different from the graceful, long-haired figure in a flowing dress when they were on their date.
Seeing that Jiang Miao had brought only one umbrella, Su Huaizhou finally smiled in satisfaction.
At least Junior Brother wasn’t too clueless. She had already taught him to this extent. If he still didn’t understand, then she’d really have nothing to say.
“Ahem… Senior Sister, sorry.” Jiang Miao tried to make his expression and tone as natural as possible. “I ca in a hurry, so I only brought one umbrella.”
“It’s okay. Just consider it as helping you get material.” Su Huaizhou didn’t mind at all. She secretly felt pleased and quickly moved under the umbrella with Junior Brother. “Let’s go to the departnt building.”
“Okay.” Jiang Miao held the umbrella and walked towards the departnt building, his eyes glancing at Senior Sister’s hand from ti to ti.
Unfortunately, holding the umbrella made it impossible to hold hands.
Jiang Miao sighed inwardly.
Su Huaizhou turned her head and asked curiously, “Junior Brother, what does it feel like to share an umbrella with a girl?”
Jiang Miao, caught off guard by the question, walked a little stiffly. “Not-nothing much.”
“Oh.” She nodded and leaned closer to him. Then she discreetly stretched out her right arm, slipped it under his arm, and linked her arm with his, pressing her entire body against him.
The feeling of closeness and pressure ca imdiately.
Then Jiang Miao saw Su Huaizhou smiling at him.
“What about now? What does it feel like?”
Jiang Miao: “…”
What did it feel like?
Of course, it felt like his heart was pounding.
While Jiang Miao was holding the umbrella, the pitter-patter of raindrops falling on the umbrella disappeared.
In an instant, the sunlight in his heart broke through the clouds.
The words ‘Senior Sister, I like you’ almost slipped out of his mouth. Fortunately, his remaining rationality managed to keep the situation under control.
Before he completely changed Senior Sister’s view of not wanting to be in a relationship, he absolutely couldn’t reveal his true feelings!
