There were very few girls in the computer science department, but their grades were generally quite good. Of course, good grades did not necessarily equate to strong practical work abilities. In fact, it could even be said that the vast majority of girls in the computer science department had inflated academic scores.
The scenario of having average grades but exceptionally good technical skills in a certain area rarely occurred among the girls in the department.
Chen Yusheng only realized this after she had been enrolled for some time.
It was quite fascinating, really. At first, she noticed that several girls in her year were very studious. With the intention of exchanging technical knowledge, she approached them to ask about any open-source projects they had worked on or which specific fields they were interested in.
As a result, she couldn't get any real answers out of them... Well, to be fair, freshmen generally only have a superficial understanding of their major anyway. The real issue was that those girls generally lacked passion; their goals all seemed to be getting good grades, landing a job at a major tech company, and then transitioning into management.
Moving into management was certainly a good thing, but Chen Yusheng didn't want to become a manager so early. She still preferred immersing herself on the technical frontlines. It would be ideal to just have a few subordinates like Li Xingya to help her with the hands-on work.
"It's fine. Later on, when your capabilities have leveled up, I'll hire professional management staff to handle things for you," Su Bai said casually, taking a sip of the fish soup.
It was indeed delicious.
For fish soup, the quality of the fish is crucial, especially the flavor drawn from the fish bones, which Su Bai cared about deeply.
Some people might find the taste of stewed fish bones too fishy, but Su Bai felt it was just right.
Chen Yusheng loved spicy food and had a heavy palate, but she was quite resistant to fishy tastes, or rather, her taste buds were highly sensitive in that regard.
"Will you also look for someone like Li Xingya for the management position then?" Chen Yusheng teased.
"Hehe, definitely not. That girl is too naive. For a management role, you need someone shrewd."
"But shrewd people are prone to pulling petty tricks behind your back. Sigh, running a company is just never a worry-free endeavor," Zhou Jialu chimed in.
She had gained a profound understanding of this during her various internships.
Every office has its internal struggles, complete with all sorts of little cliques and factions, which is incredibly annoying.
Su Bai expressed his deep agreement, using a spoon to scoop up some fish soup and bringing it to Chen Yusheng's mouth.
Chen Yusheng tried to refuse, but Su Bai still managed to stuff her mouth full.
"What are you doing?" she asked indistinctly, shooting him a reproachful glare.
"You need to build up your tolerance to fishy things. Otherwise, it's really unfair to always make your senior sister take on the role of having a silver tongue, don't you think?" Su Bai pretended to be serious, but was actually talking complete nonsense.
"Well, I have my own specialties too, you know."
"And where are your specialties?"
As soon as Su Bai said this, Chen Yusheng lifted her long leg, clad in black pantyhose, under the dining table.
Today, this girl with a natural affinity for black tights was wearing diamond-patterned fishnets.
Textured pantyhose like this is actually very unforgiving when it comes to leg shape and personal aura. For girls with slightly thicker legs or a more vulgar vibe, it can easily turn into a fashion disaster. However, on Chen Yusheng's legs, it looked absolutely perfect.
She glared at him in defiance, showing off her special ability to Su Bai.
Seeing this, Zhou Jialu wasn't about to be outdone. Since she was almost full anyway, she ran behind his chair to give Su Bai a massage.
While massaging him, she let Su Bai enjoy a warm and soft "cushion."
[Ding! The host is enjoying a dual-service with distinct merits. Rewarding attribute points: Mind +2!]
Good heavens, it actually dropped attribute points directly.
His Mind attribute had now reached 90 points. Although it was still much weaker compared to his towering Physique of 138 points, it was still an upgrade to his brain.
Su Bai was starting to figure it out: the more outrageous his indulgences and enjoyments were, the better the rewards the system would provide.
From cash rewards to various luxury items, and now to his absolute favorite attribute points and even supernatural skills, the pattern held true.
It seemed he needed to ramp up the intensity and try some new tricks recently. Maybe the system would drop another skill; that [Fountain Physique] had already proven incredibly useful to Su Bai.
As Su Bai's physical constitution improved, the girls would need to level up too, otherwise, they wouldn't be able to play to their heart's content.
Even if there were no skills, some peerless antiques or something similar would be nice.
"Hiss... this is pretty good!" Su Bai expressed his approval. "Keep it coming, I'm almost full anyway... Oh wait, first pack up a portion of the food in the kitchen that hasn't been brought out yet, and call a courier to deliver it to the lab. Li Xingya still went to work today, right?"
"Ah? Um, yes, she did." Chen Yusheng was a little slow to react. Su Bai's thought process was indeed incredibly erratic. She and her senior sister were already deploying their unique skills, yet Su Bai's mind could still jump to Li Xingya. This kind of mental leap was comparable to a wormhole.
Or perhaps, the new girl was just more appealing!
After all, when Lu Yuning first arrived, Su Bai had paid a lot of attention to her too.
At this thought, Chen Yusheng's ankle automatically became much more agile, making Su Bai bare his teeth in a sharp inhale.
Su Bai realized that this girl got exceptionally spirited when she was jealous, which was a great thing.
So he continued the conversation: "How come you're slacking off at home while she's still at work?"
"She didn't finish the task I assigned her yesterday, and she actively requested to keep working on it..."
"That's perfect then. Send some fish over to her as a working lunch."
"...Oh my, junior, you're so considerate!" Zhou Jialu also joined in the teasing, wrapping her arms around Su Bai's head and rubbing it.
To be honest, Su Bai's hair quality was absolutely incredible. How could any human possess such perfect hair?
More importantly, the little brain beneath that hair was just as magical.
If the way rich men picked up girls followed a universally recognized playbook, then Su Bai's methods, aside from relying on his high stats, were genuinely creative.
This fish was something you couldn't even order at an average Japanese restaurant. No, even high-end Japanese restaurants might not have the supply channels for it.
Arranging some leftover, high-quality food in a beautiful little wooden box took no effort at all, but in the eyes of a female university student, it was an absolutely top-tier romantic gesture, and one that didn't feel forced.
In fact, Zhou Jialu felt that Su Bai was just casually flirting. After all, she couldn't detect any urgent desire from him toward Li Xingya whatsoever.
Thinking back on her own experience, she had also fallen into Su Bai's trap completely involuntarily.
Zhou Jialu and Chen Yusheng exchanged a look and decided to increase their efforts, aiming to make Su Bai relax thoroughly after the meal and go straight into an afternoon nap.
As a result, naturally, the two girls ended up passing out from exhaustion, while Su Bai remained completely energetic.
Sigh, some things are fundamentally determined by your stats and have absolutely nothing to do with your subjective level of effort.
Meanwhile, Li Xingya, who had just finished her morning work in the lab and was getting ready to grab lunch, received a local courier delivery.
She initially thought it was a mistaken delivery, but the recipient's phone number provided by the sender was indeed hers.
Fortunately, Li Xingya checked her phone messages. Chen Yusheng had messaged her about the working lunch, explaining that they were eating fish at the Ascott today, personally prepared by Su Bai. They had made quite a lot and couldn't finish it, so they wanted her to have a taste too.
This is just too thoughtful... Li Xingya couldn't help but feel a warm glow in her heart. Teacher Chen was truly the best kind of colleague. Where else could you find ordinary coworkers who were this friendly?
