"Yeh Hao, what are you doing?"
A faint fragrance wafted over, and Yeh Hao's gaze shifted from the computer screen to find Su Yuan standing beside him.
He smiled and said, "I'm chatting with a friend."
On his desktop, a chat window was displayed, and in the browser, there were two tabs open: one for a gaming forum and the other for a political forum.
Su Yuan gave him a meaningful look, then turned and returned to her own computer.
Yeh Hao was puzzled by her actions and couldn't figure out why she had come over. "Yeh Hao, what do you think of my outfit?" Su Yuan's voice suddenly rang out after a while.
Yeh Hao was taken aback. Could it be that she came over to get my attention and have me comment on her clothes? He then deliberately observed the well-fitted attire she was wearing. Although it had a certain indescribable charm on her, it was still quite nice overall. He nodded and said, "It's very beautiful and suits you well."
Su Yuan beamed, giving him a look that said, "You have good taste," and said proudly, "This outfit was bought for me by a friend!"
"Is your friend a girl?" Yeh Hao asked.
Su Yuan nodded and said happily, "Yes, although the clothes she bought for me are a bit feminine, they're still quite nice."
Yeh Hao suddenly understood, "No wonder it felt a bit off, it was bought by a girl!"
"Right, most of the clothes I bought today were chosen by her, but don't worry, the one I gave you was picked by me." To be precise, it was picked at random, Su Yuan thought with a chuckle.
Yeh Hao smiled and said, "It doesn't matter who picked it, I've seen it, and the craftsmanship and material are both excellent. It must have been expensive."
"How can it not matter? I, Su Yuan, picked it myself, representing my taste. As for the craftsmanship and material, the price is there, 299 yuan originally!"
"So expensive, you really went to a lot of trouble." Thinking of Su Yuan's "frugality," Yeh Hao was genuinely surprised.
Su Yuan waved her hand, "No problem, I managed to haggle it down to 225 yuan."
"Still, I have to thank you."
Su Yuan squinted her eyes, looking very pleased.
"Hey, you two, are you done yet? It's just a piece of clothing, and you're talking about it for so long!" Gao Jun's voice, filled with jealousy, rang out.
Su Yuan laughed and knew that it was because she hadn't bought him any clothes, making him feel unbalanced. She said, "Someone is jealous, huh? If you're capable, get Xia Jie to buy you some too! Ah... planting flowers three thousand years ago was a cause, and reaping the fruits eight thousand years later is destiny... You have no destiny, and you don't treat me well, so you deserve it!"
This retort was quite powerful, and Gao Jun was momentarily speechless, then pouted.
After a few seconds, Gao Jun clicked his tongue and said sarcastically, "It sounds like you, Su Yuan, are someone special to Yeh Hao. Oh, how envious I am."
—If you're capable, get Xia Jie to buy you some too!
Su Yuan was stunned, slowly realizing the ambiguity in her words. She was instantly furious and sarcastically said, "What I am to Yeh Hao is none of your business, and Xia Jie isn't anyone special to you either! You're just being unreasonable, and I have no relationship with Yeh Hao."
Gao Jun, full of bravado, looked down on her and said, "Linfen will be my woman in the future. Do you also want to be Yeh Hao's... Ha ha..." He turned to Yeh Hao and said, "Yeh Hao, you have to be careful with Su Yuan. I think this guy is already a bit abnormal. As the saying goes, a man with a woman's appearance, even if not promiscuous, is still frivolous. Be careful, you might become her target!"
"Gao Jun, you bastard!!"
Su Yuan was enraged, her face turning red. She couldn't bear the thought of being a "man" being spoken of so poorly! She considered herself a man of principle and couldn't tolerate being associated with another man, even if it was the familiar Yeh Hao... no way!
She lunged at Gao Jun, as if she was about to hit him, but hesitated when her sleeve lifted, revealing her arm. She angrily put her arm down.
"This bastard, how dare he make such a joke!!" Su Yuan was still fuming, feeling regret for her unguarded words. How could she have said something so suggestive and misleading?
Yeh Hao watched the two bicker and shrugged helplessly, "Why are you two arguing again..." He said to Su Yuan, "Ignore Gao Jun, the more you argue with him, the happier he gets."
Su Yuan thought about it and realized he was right! Gao Jun was just feeling unbalanced and looking for a fight.
She suddenly had an epiphany, her eyes sparkling mischievously. She remembered the "flirting secrets" she had taught Gao Jun. Initially, she had some reservations, but now she genuinely hoped he would put them into action.
As long as he dared, Xia Jie would surely take action to get back at her.
Haha!!
Gao Jun suddenly felt a chill run down his spine. Looking at Su Yuan's slender figure, he suddenly felt that "bullying" her seemed unprincipled.
This feeling made him feel rather dispirited. Normally, the three of them often bickered and played around, which only deepened their bond, but today, for some reason, he felt reluctant to "bully" Su Yuan.
"How did this guy's body become so slender? It's like a girl's." Gao Jun squinted his eyes, thinking to himself. He convinced himself that he wasn't arguing with Su Yuan because a real man doesn't argue with a "girl," not because he suddenly felt "reluctant."
His goal was to be a dominant man. Su Yuan had said that to conquer Xia Linfei, one must be dominant! How could a dominant man feel pity for another slender man?
He hypnotized himself, imagining Su Yuan as a woman, and because she was a woman, he let her off!
But—
Gao Jun blinked hard, a mystery forming in his mind, "Strange! The more I look at her, the more she seems like a real woman, even more beautiful than the so-called school beauties..." Gao Jun's heart skipped a beat. A man beautiful to this extent was a disaster...
"Su Yuan, you bought a lot of things today, which doesn't seem like your style." After a while, Gao Jun adjusted his mindset and said to Su Yuan with a warm smile.
Yeh Hao was also curious.
Thinking of today's expenses, Su Yuan said with a pained expression, "You're right, I spent over two thousand yuan today, almost going bankrupt."
Gao Jun whistled, his eyes wide open, "Wow, you really did make a fortune!"
Su Yuan glanced at him, her bright eyes asking, "Does spending two thousand yuan mean I made a fortune?" She suddenly felt her dignity was severely insulted. Thinking of the rich second-generation, spending tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands wouldn't make people think they "made a fortune," but spending just two thousand made people think that. What a heart-wrenching comparison!
"Uh?" Gao Jun felt something blocking his throat.
"..."
Seeing his discomfort, Su Yuan suddenly smiled, waving her hand as if it were nothing. She concluded that she still had a strong presence, and sometimes, just showing a bit of it was enough to make Gao Jun back down.
This discovery made Su Yuan feel very pleased. She, Su Yuan, had the authority of a dorm leader.
But looking at Yeh Hao, she felt a bit depressed. If Gao Jun was easily controlled by her, then Yeh Hao was always in a state of indifference, and her influence on him was almost zero! No way to get through to him? How could this be! People with high emotional intelligence and rationality were so annoying!
Her smile vanished, and she adjusted her state, feeling a strong urge to share her achievement with everyone.
She leaned in and said mysteriously, "Yeh Hao, Gao Jun, I have something to tell you..."
"Tell us, we're listening," Gao Jun said enthusiastically.
"Are you curious where I got the money to buy clothes?"
Gao Jun nodded, "Yes, how did you suddenly decide to spend so much on clothes? Tell us!"
"I earned it!"
Seeing Yeh Hao and Gao Jun's curious expressions, Su Yuan said mysteriously, "This all started with this summer..."
