Chapter 99

After being pulled into the room by Ye Mei, Zhang Qiu couldn't help but take a deep breath to calm himself down. He never thought he would enter Ye Mei's bedroom in this way.

But Ye Mei laughed and said, "You haven't been in a girl's room before, have you? Don't get so excited, this is just a walk-in closet. Come, I'll get you some clothes."

Hearing this, Zhang Qiu snapped out of his daze and couldn't help but curse in his heart, "Damn! I got my hopes up for nothing." He then looked around and indeed saw no bed. In front of him was a large wardrobe that stretched from the floor to the ceiling. On the left side of the wardrobe was a curtain, and next to the curtain was a frosted glass door, clearly leading to a bathroom.

On the opposite side of the wardrobe, a huge mirror was embedded.

Just this walk-in closet was over ten square meters. If it were a small apartment, it would be enough for a master bedroom. Zhang Qiu thought to himself that Ye Mei's room must be several dozen square meters, equivalent to a small apartment, so it was divided into several sections.

Ye Mei opened a wardrobe, and inside were all men's clothes.

Zhang Qiu couldn't help but ask, "Why do you have so many men's clothes?"

"I bought them to wear myself!" Ye Mei said, "Who says these styles can only be worn by men? Nowadays, there are plenty of girls who wear shirts and suits! But I think the women's versions are ugly, so I bought these men's versions."

"Uh..." Zhang Qiu was speechless, "You really have too much money to spend."

Ye Mei rummaged through the wardrobe and pulled out a piece of clothing. "This one was a bit big when I bought it. I only wore it a few times at home. Try it on!"

It turned out she had worn it, and Zhang Qiu suddenly felt tense all over. "Girl, you're really not particular, are you? Are you trying to make me nosebleed?"

"Still standing there? Change!" Ye Mei urged.

Zhang Qiu said, "Aren't you going to turn around?"

"What are you afraid of as a big man? It's not like you're changing your pants. Besides, even if you were, you could just turn around." Ye Mei said.

Zhang Qiu rubbed his forehead. He thought to himself, "Girl, you're even more fierce than a tough girl."

"Are you trying to do something to me?" Zhang Qiu asked weakly. Ye Mei's behavior was too abnormal. According to the novels he had read, girls wouldn't easily let a man into their room, right? If they did, it meant something.

But even if it meant something, they would pretend to be shy and avoid changing clothes. How could anyone be as direct as Ye Mei?

So Zhang Qiu was a bit confused. He looked at the red aura above his head. It seemed there was no change. The virtual red aura that Ye Mei had bestowed on him remained the same, neither increasing nor becoming real red aura entangled with him.

"You don't seem to be very shy. Is it because your body isn't good enough to lack confidence?" Ye Mei used a provocation tactic.

Speaking of his body, Zhang Qiu wasn't afraid to show it. Although his current physique wasn't as muscular as a bodybuilder's, at least the fat he used to have had turned into firm muscles, making him the strongest he could be without changing his body shape.

So when Zhang Qiu put on clothes, he looked very thin. But if he took them off, his well-built muscles would be visible.

He wasn't afraid of girls, so he took off his clothes in one go.

But then he heard Ye Mei scream, "You really took them off!"

After saying that, she covered her eyes, and Zhang Qiu couldn't help but smile. He then noticed that Ye Mei had secretly peeked through her fingers.

Zhang Qiu was speechless. He couldn't figure out what this girl was up to. Was she really shy, or was she pretending to be shy?

But this wasn't what Zhang Qiu needed to think about now. He threw his cheap clothes to the side and felt the high-quality, well-fitted shirt. It gave him a sense of luxury.

Zhang Qiu put on the shirt, buttoned it up, and felt that the person in the mirror didn't look like himself anymore.

At this moment, Ye Mei clapped her hands. "Not bad! I didn't expect you to look so muscular despite being so thin. This shirt really suits your style. I have good taste."

As she spoke, Ye Mei opened the wardrobe full of men's clothes again and picked out a pair of casual dress pants, handing them to Zhang Qiu.

Zhang Qiu didn't waste words and took off his pants directly. At this moment, Ye Mei hadn't reacted yet. Suddenly, she was stunned to see that Zhang Qiu was only in his underwear. She instinctively covered her mouth to prevent herself from screaming and then covered her face and ran behind the curtain, shouting, "Zhang Qiu, how could you do this! You didn't even tell me! You're a pervert!"

"Hey! You're afraid now! Pretending to be a tough girl!" Zhang Qiu felt a bit smug. He had been in an awkward situation all along, but after a few moments of hesitation, he suddenly felt a sense of recklessness and took off his pants without thinking of the consequences.

Ye Mei's words he didn't answer. He just smiled and changed his pants, then looked at himself in the mirror again. Indeed, it felt different from before. But his hairstyle still seemed a bit off.

Zhang Qiu didn't say anything. Since he had already taken off his pants, he boldly lifted the curtain and walked in.

As Zhang Qiu had guessed, this room was several dozen square meters and was divided into several sections. The entrance was the walk-in closet, followed by a study, and behind the study was a beaded curtain leading to the actual bedroom, where a bed was placed.

At this moment, Zhang Qiu noticed that both the study and the bedroom had wardrobe doors. Zhang Qiu guessed that the wardrobe had doors on both sides, allowing clothes to be taken from the outside or the inside, which was a convenient design.

Looking through the beaded curtain, Zhang Qiu finally saw Ye Mei's bed, and Ye Mei was lying on it.

Zhang Qiu didn't say anything and walked straight in.

Suddenly, his heart started beating faster. Completing the task was today.

Suddenly, Ye Mei jumped up from the bed, turned to face Zhang Qiu, and asked, "Why did you come in without saying anything?"

"Look, how do I look?" Zhang Qiu didn't answer but cleverly changed the subject, asking her how the clothes looked.

Ye Mei's attention was drawn to the clothes, and she nodded. "Not bad! You can be a clothes hanger. But you still need a belt and a new hairstyle. After we see my brother, if there's time, we can get you one and a new hairstyle."

"Don't you have a belt here?" Zhang Qiu asked.

"I do, but they're all women's belts. I can mix and match men's clothes with women's belts, but you can't." Ye Mei said.

At this moment, she didn't realize that Zhang Qiu had already formally entered her bedroom and suddenly sat down next to her.

"What does he want to do?" Ye Mei suddenly felt her heart beating faster.

And Zhang Qiu's heart was also beating faster.

He always felt that what he was doing was a bit despicable.

Although he hadn't done anything to Ye Mei, the sense of guilt was even stronger than if he had.

The two fell into silence. Ye Mei didn't question him or ask him to leave, and Zhang Qiu didn't know what to say. He was quietly waiting for a system prompt.

After his heart had beaten many times, he felt like he had waited for a long time. Suddenly, the system prompt came: "Ye Mei's plot task (completed). Reward: High School Exam Mastery (Provincial Level). Extract?"

"Extract!" He silently said. The skill was in his hands. Zhang Qiu suddenly felt more experience in solving problems, and various types of questions flashed through his mind. He found that his problem-solving skills were clearer and faster.

At this moment, Zhang Qiu suddenly felt that he could become the top student in Suzhou City, no matter how strong the competition was.

This was the power of Provincial Level Exam Mastery, which could guarantee a 100% chance of becoming the top student in the city. It was undoubtedly a level higher than City Level Exam Mastery. After all, City Level Exam Mastery only guaranteed the average top student in each city. In a weaker city, it might be possible to become the top student, but in a stronger city, there was no chance.

Now, with Provincial Level Exam Mastery, he had a 100% chance of becoming the top student in the city.

It could be said that so far, among the skills he had obtained, this Exam Mastery was the most subjective, becoming stronger against stronger opponents and weaker against weaker opponents. It seemed to have no fixed level, always fluctuating.

"Thank you!" Zhang Qiu suddenly said, breaking the silence.

This was the second time Zhang Qiu thanked Ye Mei. Ye Mei was stunned for a moment, then suddenly came to her senses and smiled slightly. "It's nothing. I said I would help you, didn't I? You saved me, and it's only right for me to repay you. No need to be so polite! Be more natural."

"Changing your image is the first step. Look, you're actually a good person, but you just didn't pay attention to your appearance before, which buried your charisma."

As she spoke, Ye Mei stood up, adjusted the collar of Zhang Qiu's shirt, then looked at him from the front. She then pulled his hand, pulling him up from the bed, and said, "Okay, let's go out!"

Zhang Qiu was dazed as Ye Mei pulled him out of the room. When they reached the walk-in closet, Ye Mei suddenly said, "By the way, we should also change your shoes when we have time."

At this moment, Zhang Qiu suddenly realized that Ye Mei wasn't suddenly acting crazy but was trying to repay him and help him change his image.

So she had suddenly let him into her room and given him her clothes to change. So she had boldly wanted to see his physique. Zhang Qiu suddenly felt even more guilty about his earlier "perverted" behavior.

"It's really strange! I didn't feel this guilty even when I bullied Lin Lai." Zhang Qiu was confused about why he felt this way. It seemed he had suddenly become more sentimental and prone to guilt.

What he didn't know was that his mindset was different. He had been secretly in love with Lin Lai for two or three years. During this long time, he had been in a relationship with the Lin Lai in his mind. Whether it was confessing, being intimate, or arguing, he had almost imagined and rehearsed all the scenarios in his mind.

He could say that he had both love and "hate" for Lin Lai, which was completely different from his feelings for Ye Mei, whom he had just met. He had already considered Lin Lai his woman in his heart, and he had imagined being in a relationship with her countless times, so he didn't feel as guilty about "bullying" her.

However, Ye Mei was generous and kind, and he didn't consider her his woman. In his heart, she was a good girl and a good friend. Treating friends equally, not bullying or taking advantage of them, was the most common mindset. So when he took advantage of her and acted perverted, he felt a strong sense of guilt.
