I Am Not Little Deer Senior, I Am Su Bai

The result was that Zhou Jialu ended up completely... Su Bai had handled her like a ragdoll.

His physical stats were just too broken; if he wasn't careful, it was easy to...

By the time everything was settled, it was already past two in the morning.

As Su Bai was preparing to leave Zhou Jialu's room, he noticed a message pop up on her phone. Surprisingly, it was from Lu Yuning.

"What should I do if the hotel sheets got dirty... just call room service. Why do I get the feeling this girl hasn't stayed in hotels very often?" Su Bai muttered to himself.

On second thought, it wasn't that strange. Some girls just didn't stay in hotels often. Plus, the Ascott was a high-end, long-stay serviced apartment; it was normal to feel a bit out of one's depth.

So, Su Bai used Zhou Jialu's phone to reply for her:

[There's a booklet in the study drawer with numbers for various services. Just call the 24-hour room service.]

The reason Su Bai could use Zhou Jialu's phone so casually was that she had no defenses against him. Su Bai knew her passcode, and his face ID was even registered on the device, allowing him to access any content at any time.

In front of Su Bai, Zhou Jialu had no privacy.

This was an attitude—a declaration that she wanted to bind her entire existence to Su Bai. Her future actions would always stand up to scrutiny; she would never do anything to let Su Bai down.

This might sound like the bare minimum, considering Su Bai was supporting her and spending money on her like water.

The problem was that many girls in the current "market" lacked moral fiber. There were plenty who ate a rich guy's food while messing around outside, including many who looked like glamorous socialites.

No matter how good they looked on the outside, they were rotten on the inside.

That was why they never secured long-term relationships with wealthy men—they were just short-term toys to be used and discarded.

That wasn't the ending Zhou Jialu wanted. Besides, her personality wouldn't allow her to cheat anyway.

As for those who siphoned off a rich man's assets or stabbed him in the back, Zhou Jialu despised them even more.

Therefore, in her mind, there was nothing on her phone that Su Bai couldn't see. Of course, he could use it whenever he wanted.

That was how the scene of Su Bai using Zhou Jialu's phone to reply to Lu Yuning came to be.

Meanwhile.

Lu Yuning had actually been ready to sleep. Although she had sent the message, given the hour, she didn't expect a reply from Zhou Jialu.

She had originally planned to contact her after waking up, but she suddenly remembered what Zhou Jialu had told her while they were tidying up the room earlier that day.

"If you have any difficulties in life, try to tell us quickly. Don't be shy, and don't drag things out. Su Bai likes people who are concise and efficient."

Concise and efficient... Indeed. Whenever Lu Yuning had to make a decision, she tended to be wishy-washy and indecisive. Gentle people generally had a bit of indecisiveness in them.

But after meeting her, Su Bai had quickly decided to invest in her. That kind of decisiveness was something Lu Yuning admired greatly.

Since that was the case, she decided to ask on WeChat first; Zhou Jialu would see it naturally when she woke up.

She didn't expect Xiaolu to be up this late too!

Lu Yuning was a little excited. She replied "Okay, got it," and then asked, "Senior Xiaolu hasn't slept yet? You need to take care of yourself!"

After typing and sending it, she felt it was a bit cheesy, but since it was already sent, retracting it didn't seem right.

She was always like this, prone to acting a bit silly when interacting with others. Sharp people in society could spot her weakness at a glance, like vultures smelling blood, coming to manipulate her. She had always felt she was quite weak, certainly not a strong person.

*What the hell is "Senior Xiaolu"...* Su Bai smiled knowingly. *Where exactly is the seniority here, I'd like to ask?*

Did this silly girl really think of herself as a reserve member of the harem?

At least judging by the favorability displayed on the system panel, that guess might be quite accurate.

After pondering for a moment, Su Bai understood the brilliance of this address. Lu Yuning was actually a year older than Zhou Jialu, but her personality was soft, like a little sister.

Between girls, you couldn't just force the title "Big Sister." This was completely different from men's habits. In a man's world, calling someone "Brother" upon meeting was just good manners—for example, in sales, calling a client "Brother" was never wrong.

But if you mindlessly called a female client "Sister," what if she was younger than you? That would be offensive. Girls were very sensitive about aging.

So, calling her "Senior Xiaolu" showed respect while avoiding any awkwardness.

She's really smart, Lu Yuning.

[I'm not your Senior Xiaolu, I'm Su Bai. She just passed out.]

[If you're free tomorrow, let's grab lunch. I have an inspiration for a clothing design right now and want to discuss it with you. If you're okay with it, we can start the work process. Of course, if you want to take a few days off first, that's fine too.]

The other side went silent for about a minute before replying with a cute sticker of a bunny bowing while holding a carrot.

[Okay Boss, no problem! I don't need time off, I can start work tomorrow!]

[I will work hard!]

*Snap.*

Lu Yuning slammed her phone screen-down onto the table. Her face turned red at a visible speed; her whole body was overheating, as if steam were about to erupt from the top of her head.

Wait, no, wait!

Why was Senior Xiaolu's phone in Su Bai's hands... Okay, actually, that wasn't strange. Their relationship was very close, after all. It was just Lu Yuning being thoughtless, or perhaps just having bad luck.

The result was that Su Bai now knew about her situation.

The ultimate social death.

Now the question was: Would Su Bai connect this to other things, or even figure out the truth directly?

Thinking of this, Lu Yuning felt terrible. She had already released her stress and was mentally tired enough to sleep, but now her drowsiness was swept away, and she was wide awake.

People like her were just prone to overthinking.

A storm raged in her mind as she considered various possibilities.

It was possible that the experienced Su Bai had already seen through the truth but was just feigning ignorance to spare her feelings.

What, you ask how Lu Yuning knew Su Bai was experienced?

He had so many girlfriends. The college students in the short video comment sections were envious to death of Su Bai, saying top-tier beauties of all styles—slim, curvy, you name it—were revolving around him.

Then he must have already experienced plenty of... um...

So, Su Bai really had high emotional intelligence and knew how to be considerate.

A fresh wave of fondness for Su Bai rose in Lu Yuning's heart.

For a man as dazzling as him to treat a girl he had just met so gently... it was truly rare and precious.
