“W-what are you trying to do?!”
Chen Yusheng tensed up instantly.
She subconsciously took half a step back, clutching the sides of her chiffon dress, looking utterly pitiable.
Hmm… if Su Bai really made an unreasonable request, well… maybe she could consider it…
Bizarre, rebellious thoughts swirled in the girl’s mind.
Yet the next moment, Su Bai said something completely unexpected:
“How about upgrading your setup too? That way, it’ll be more comfortable when we game together from your dorm.”
“…Is that your bold idea?”
“What’s wrong?”
“Nothing!”
Chen Yusheng felt inexplicably annoyed, biting her lip like a fool.
She was mad at herself for overthinking things!
Su Bai was clearly being perfectly proper.
“So, what do you think? Let’s browse JD and pick a laptop. A desktop wouldn’t work with the dorm’s power limits, and you need portability anyway…”
“Well, I…”
“Don’t say you don’t need it. Like I said, this is for my emotional fulfillment. Imagine how annoyed I’d be if you lagged while gaming with me. Makes sense, right?”
Logically, yes.
But that wasn’t what was bothering Chen Yusheng.
Seeing how earnestly Su Bai wanted to pick a laptop for her, she couldn’t suppress her thoughts and blurted out:
“Su Bai… do you not like gaming with me in couple booths?”
“Huh?” Su Bai froze. “What does that have to do with couple booths…?”
“Then buying me a new laptop means you’d rather I play from my dorm—you don’t want to see me offline?”
“What kind of galaxy-brain logic is that?!”
Su Bai laughed in exasperation. “It’s not like you’re free to meet up every day. This way, you’ll have a good setup wherever you are. Your current laptop has quality control issues, and the seller won’t replace it. You’ve complained about random lag spikes yourself.”
“…”
“Wait… Yusheng, are you saying you prefer gaming with me in couple booths?”
A knowing smirk curled at Su Bai’s lips.
Chen Yusheng squirmed under his gaze, muttering, “I have things to do—I’m leaving!” before fleeing the JW Marriott’s river-view suite in embarrassment.
Damn, not bad. The way the studious Chen Yusheng blushed was something else.
A maiden’s shyness outshines all the words in the world.
Su Bai understood this profoundly when it came to Chen Yusheng.
……
“Junior, I’m back!”
At six in the evening, Zhou Jialu’s curvaceous figure reappeared before Su Bai.
Not much time had passed since Chen Yusheng’s escape.
Zhou Jialu had returned to campus for afternoon classes—a failed course she was retaking in her senior year.
Some professors kept a close eye on retaking students, so attendance was mandatory.
Su Bai had exploited this timing gap to avoid a “Chen Yusheng and Zhou Jialu encounter.”
Perfect timing!
It looked like masterful maneuvering, but really, it was pure luck.
Su Bai didn’t even know they were roommates.
Zhou Jialu had never mentioned who her dormmates were.
His knowledge of the “Goddess Dorm” was limited to Liu Yuanyuan and Chen Yusheng.
Noticing the flashy new computer in the suite, Zhou Jialu asked curiously, “Junior, went shopping for a PC this afternoon?”
“Yep, built one I’m really happy with.”
“Hehe, gaming must be amazing on it. Too bad I’m not much of a gamer… but if you don’t mind, you could teach me.”
The moment she saw Su Bai, Zhou Jialu latched onto him like some parasitic soft-bodied creature.
She still seemed to enjoy teasing him, reveling in how he struggled to resist her charm.
Su Bai noticed this keenly—she’d always been like this, craving validation for her allure, yet fundamentally conservative and self-respecting.
That’s why some called her “thirsty.”
But now, the target of her need for validation was fixed solely on Su Bai.
The happiness that brought was indescribable.
So Su Bai indulged in another round of his senior’s “services.”
Refreshed, he sprawled on the sofa and cracked open a drink from the minibar.
Meanwhile, Zhou Jialu examined a glass bottle of Evian—the kind often featured in media depicting luxury lifestyles.
A 330ml gift edition priced at 200 yuan.
Did it taste good? Sure. Was it worth the price? Debatable.
After enough cuddling, they headed out for Cantonese cuisine nearby.
They’d been eating rich food lately and needed a change.
Though the system negated the consequences of indulgence for Su Bai, his palate still craved variety.
Or, more accurately, Su Bai just loved exploring—typical foodie behavior. When you’ve got money, you wanna try everything.
During dinner, Chen Yusheng sent a “peeking cat” emoji.
Without fuss, Su Bai told her they’d start gaming at 8 PM.
He estimated Zhou Jialu would be gone by then.
Sure enough, before 7:30, she mentioned returning to her dorm to chat with friends and left.
Mainly because staying later might tempt her to slack off… and then “accidentally” spend the night with him.
Su Bai took a bath and logged in promptly at eight.
Chen Yusheng was unusually quiet in-game today, barely using voice chat except for brief remarks.
Clearly still in her shell.
This was normal. According to the system, Chen Yusheng had fallen hard for Su Bai. For someone like her, such feelings would inevitably trigger a profound emotional upheaval.
She just needed time.
As the saying goes, good things come to those who wait.
Su Bai genuinely adored girls like her.
After two hours of gaming, the moment they quit, Chen Yusheng messaged him:
[Rainstop: Are you mad?]
[CrispyWhiteGoose: Nope.]
[Rainstop: Oh.]
[Rainstop: I’m not mad either.]
[Rainstop: Just had a sore throat today, so I talked less!]
[CrispyWhiteGoose: Got it [WhiteGoose_Cheers]]
[CrispyWhiteGoose: Ordered you an ROG Strix Scar 18. Address is set to the Cainiao locker near your dorm. Should arrive tomorrow morning—grab it when you get the notification.]
[Rainstop: Okay.]
[Rainstop: Thank you.]
Their tastes were eerily aligned.
Though Chen Yusheng often criticized ROG for being overpriced, the exact laptop Su Bai bought her was one she’d secretly coveted all summer.
But the top-tier model cost over 30,000 yuan.
No point wasting money—better save it for her mom’s treatment.
Su Bai… was really, really good to her.
That afternoon at the hotel, Su Bai had teased her, making it clear that he was aware of Chen Yusheng's feelings.
"Why does this guy give off such a player vibe... Ugh, but I still like him so much!"
Chen Yusheng silently grumbled to herself before climbing into bed with her phone to chat with Su Bai.
At that moment, all four members of the "Goddess Dorm" were unusually present.
Aside from the two goddesses entangled with Su Bai and Liu Yuanyuan—who was involved with Su Bai's roommate—the fourth member was Jiang Qiuran from the Broadcasting and Hosting Department.

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.
