“Linlin, video chatting with your boyfriend so late at night?”
Coincidentally, Xia Lin had also gone out to the balcony to call Su Bai.
So when she returned to the dormitory, she was mercilessly teased by her roommate and best friend.
“What boyfriend? Where did you get a boyfriend from?” Xia Lin smiled. “You know me, I’ve always been a proud singleton.”
And she wasn’t joking.
Warm, generous, and well-mannered—this rich girl had countless men vying for her attention.
Suitors came in waves, like endless stalks of chives that could never be fully harvested.
Yet Xia Lin remained steadfast.
She rejected them all, not giving a single chance.
Besides, she had been actively involved in the Youth League and Student Union.
Not in a bossy way, but genuinely helping students solve real problems.
For example, she tackled the inconvenience of using water cards in the dormitory buildings.
With her family’s influence and her hardworking attitude, she earned widespread praise from both teachers and students.
Gradually, everyone regarded her as a reliable big sister.
As a result, fewer people dared to pursue her.
After all, a capable, wealthy beauty exudes a completely different kind of pressure compared to one who does nothing but act childish all day.
Her roommate had originally thought their dear friend would stay single until her parents started nagging about marriage.
Who would have guessed that as soon as she became a counselor, her whole demeanor would change.
Being the person who interacted with Xia Lin the most, even a blind person could see how Xia Lin felt about Su Bai.
Her roommate naturally supported this development, standing firmly on the sidelines as a spectator, cheering Xia Lin on to snatch Su Bai away from Chen Yusheng!
But every time Xia Lin heard this, she would reveal an inscrutable smile.
This time, teased again by her roommate, she responded the same way.
“You just don’t see things clearly... Su Bai calls me ‘sister’ so sweetly, but I want to be his girlfriend? That would only disappoint him. Being his god-sister and god-brother is much better—a relationship so easy and carefree. I can even openly flirt with Su Bai right in front of little Chen. Just thinking about it makes me happy.”
“...Wait, girl, since when did you develop a thing for bull-headed guys?”
“Not really. I just think that since Su Bai can never be faithful, whether I’m his girlfriend or his god-sister doesn’t make much difference. The key is who will end up marrying Su Bai.”
In this, Xia Lin was determined to succeed.
The next afternoon, Xia Lin changed into a dark gray camisole and yoga pants in her office.
This kind of outfit, if posted on social media, would easily be criticized as borderline inappropriate.
But it was the perfect attire for Xia Lin to flirt and tease Su Bai.
After all, her figure was athletic and toned.
Xia Lin could confidently say that many professional fitness coaches, even those serving wealthy men, didn’t have a body as good as hers.
Partly because she stuck to scientific training for years, far surpassing those “fitness influencers” who took shortcuts.
But also, it was her natural gift.
Genes are truly powerful.
Xia Lin’s father used to be a soldier, known as a top physical trainer in the unit and even participated in internal bodybuilding competitions.
Her mother was trained in ballet.
It’s only natural to have a gem like her.
“I’m here! Good afternoon, sis…”
Su Bai swaggered in casually, then suddenly froze.
“Close the door, what are you standing there for?”
“Oh…”
“Lock it.”
“Wait, what are you up to? I’m kinda scared…”
“We’re going to talk about a sponsorship method that’s basically a no-go in principle. So a closed-door meeting is better, don’t you think?”
“If it’s no-go in principle, then why are you still suggesting I do it?”
“No-go in principle actually means it’s doable.”
“…”
She really means it!
No wonder Director Xia, with her officialdom style, knows so much.
It was definitely the right call to ask her for advice. When it comes to handling people and situations, Su Bai still had a lot to learn from Director Xia.
He locked the office door.
Speaking of which, for a mere counselor to have a private office—even if it’s in a rather remote corner of the building—already proved that Xia Lin’s status was no ordinary one.
Looking at her outfit today, hmm, it was unusual.
A tiny camisole, yoga pants, outlining every curve of her body vividly.
If an ordinary girl dressed like that, it would come off as a bit sleazy.
But this was Director Xia. Her noble lady aura suppressed any hint of impropriety, leaving Su Bai only with a sense of brilliance.
“Come here, didn’t you want me to fix your hair with my hands?” Xia Lin sat down on the leather sofa, patting her thigh. “Do you want a lap pillow?”
“Yes!”
What a straightforward person.
Su Bai noticed that the way Director Xia pulled him close was different from how ordinary girls did it.
Rarely shy or awkward.
She openly showed her kindness.
And it seemed she was really into playing the role of the mature big sister.
What a coincidence.
Su Bai liked it too!
To be honest, he was pretty short on affection from older women.
His parents passed away early. Aunt Jiang was around, but their relationship was distant. Aunt Jiang handled some basic guardianship duties, but most of the time, Su Bai took care of himself.
Resting the back of his head on the supple thigh, Su Bai closed his eyes as Xia Lin’s hands began to massage his scalp.
Rubbing his head~
Massaging his ears.
“Shengxi Technology is actually quite expensive. You didn’t buy it with money from stock trading, did you?” Xia Lin asked casually, sounding as natural as a sister checking on her brother’s midterm exam results.
“Hm.” Su Bai gave a noncommittal reply.
“I’m guessing your family funded it and entrusted you with managing it?”
“Hmm… domestic investments are generally handled by me.”
“Smart. Their main base is overseas, right?”
“Yeah.”
“Pretty mysterious.”
“Xia Lin, with your influence, I bet you’ve already investigated me, haven’t you?”
“Too lazy to check!” Xia Lin scolded playfully, rubbing Su Bai’s ears, seeming to enjoy the process even more than he did. “I only looked into your cash flow. Everything’s very legit.”
Of course it’s legit—Big Brother Tongzi’s big hand!
Su Bai remained vague and evasive.
Others would naturally fill in the blanks.
“Your family really trusts you, huh? They’ve handed over full responsibility for domestic investments to you? Shengxi Technology doesn’t seem like the kind of investment old men would like.”
“Yeah, it’s according to my taste. After all, I’ve been the one making the money.”
"Awesome, big sister rewards you!"
Xia Lin lowered her head and kissed Su Bai on the forehead.
Su Bai caught the scent of her breath—pleasant and refreshing, giving off the impression that "her body must be very healthy, with a perfectly balanced metabolism."
"Big sister, shouldn’t we get down to business now…?"
"Oh, getting impatient already? Helping your little girlfriend lighten her load is the real business here. How long have you been lying on big sister’s lap anyway? And you’re already restless."

Explosive Plot Song Gua crossed over into another world, bringing along a whole crew of his doppelgangers—all of them mischief-makers. This was a world where everyone could choose a class. Song Gua became a "Bondweaver," capable of borrowing power, while his doppelgangers took on a wide variety of classes, covering just about everything. The number of doppelgangers grew day by day, each one a talented individual with a charming way of speaking. Under Song Gua's brilliant leadership, they would "greet" each other daily and engage in friendly "sparring," pulling off one major scheme after another on Earth. Sometimes they were bandits—stealing bosses, plundering mines, snatching resources. Sometimes they were saviors—descending like divine warriors to face world bosses threatening to massacre cities. Sometimes they even went undercover, infiltrating various major factions to stir up trouble from within, keeping their enemies constantly on edge. To prevent their doppelganger abilities from being exposed, Song Gua made them wear masks with mahjong tile patterns and don Taoist robes in various colors. "Remember, in front of outsiders, call me 'The Dice.'" "Got it! Boss!" "Not 'Boss'—it's 'The Dice.' Think about the vibe, pay attention to the vibe." "Yes! Boss!" "For crying out loud..." From then on, whenever they appeared, they would have their own theme song playing: ~Hey~ paying respects at the mountain stronghold at night~ whose arm is draped over whose shoulder~ gather your courage and follow along...
u Chenyuan transmigrated into a female-oriented novel about a real and fake heiress, becoming the CEO elder brother of both. Unfortunately, the entire Lu family—including himself, the CEO—were mere cannon fodder in the story. Determined to save himself, Lu Chenyuan took action. The spoiled, attention-seeking fake heiress? Thrown into the harsh realities of the working class to learn humility. The love-struck real heiress? Pushed toward academic excellence, so lofty goals would blind her to trivial romances. As for the betrayed, vengeful arranged marriage wife… the plot hadn’t even begun yet. There was still time—if he couldn’t handle her, he could at least avoid her. "CEO Lu, are you avoiding me?" Mo Qingli fixed her gaze on Lu Chenyuan. For the first time, the shrewd and calculating Lu Chenyuan felt a flicker of unease.
u serious?" Chen Feng watched helplessly as his painstakingly trained disciple, fresh off a championship victory, publicly abandoned him. "You had your chance, but you didn’t appreciate it. Now, face the consequences of your choice!" Chen Feng possessed the "Master System," a treasure trove of supreme martial arts techniques, capable of molding ordinary individuals into peerless prodigies. "Legs like yours? A shame not to train in the Crippling Kick." "Ever heard of a palm strike that descends from the heavens?" "Auntie! I see extraordinary bone structure in you—a martial arts prodigy, one in ten thousand." The once-defiant senior disciple, now watching her juniors rise to fame one after another, dominating the internet, was consumed by endless regret.
