Su Bai immediately understood the cryptic message from "Hu Ye."
Could it be that someone saw him picking up the Wan sisters in his car?
Quite possible.
Whatever—if they saw it, they saw it. It's not like it's illegal.
In all my actions, I, Su Bai, have always been open and aboveboard. What's wrong with having a few more female friends?
What? You're saying I've been hanging out with two different girls over the past few days?
Well, when the mood is right, I just go with the flow to accommodate the ladies' feelings.
"Su Bai, your car is so spacious. It must've cost a fortune, right?"
The passenger seat was naturally occupied by the younger sister, Wan Xinyan.
Su Bai had noticed something: whenever the two sisters were together, it was always the younger one who took the lead, while the older one, Wan Xinyue, might as well have been an NPC—their personalities were just that different.
"Not too bad, just a few hundred grand."
"Listen to you! A few hundred grand could build a three-story house back in our hometown. The whole village would be jealous."
"Where’s your hometown?"
"A neighboring province in the southwest. It’s even a nationally designated poverty-stricken county that made the news. We owe a lot to government subsidies—otherwise, we’d never have gotten into a top school like Jiangcheng University."
"You two must’ve worked hard, then."
"Sort of. The arts college’s admission scores aren’t that high. The upside is that after getting in, we could use the school’s reputation to land part-time gigs—like hosting commercial events, voice acting, stuff like that..."
Wan Xinyan was quite talkative, openly acknowledging her humble background without hesitation. Even her excitement about riding in the Mercedes was genuine.
Su Bai appreciated that kind of honesty.
As long as you state your needs, we can work something out.
Girls who try to manipulate rich guys just because they’re young and pretty? Su Bai wanted nothing to do with them. Not that he couldn’t handle it—it was just too much hassle.
Soon, the trio arrived at Baixiang Mall, a commercial area near the university.
Unlike the upscale IKC Plaza that Su Bai frequented lately, this place catered to budget-conscious shoppers, packed with college students on weekends.
Since it was a weekday, the crowd wasn’t too bad.
Wan Xinyan first asked Su Bai if he had any preferred brands or shopping plans. When he said no, they headed straight for their intended destination—Decathlon.
It was a large, affordable sports retailer, selling everything from basic workout gear and hiking shoes to entry-level mountain bikes—basically anything sports-related.
All about value for money.
Wan Xinyan wasn’t foolish enough to drag Su Bai into a luxury boutique and hint at him footing the bill.
That was a low-tier gold-digger move.
Besides, she and her sister were young, fresh, and naturally attractive—they didn’t need high-end brands to prop them up.
With a glance at her sister, Wan Xinyan signaled the start of their little operation.
Older sister Wan Xinyue caught on immediately, drifting off toward the hiking poles section, pretending to browse.
Meanwhile, Wan Xinyan picked out a form-fitting compression top and a pair of sleek shark-print leggings.
After rustling around in the fitting room for a bit, she suddenly poked her head out from behind the curtain, looking slightly flustered.
"Su Bai, could you come help me for a sec?"
Her tone was so natural, and she’d cleverly switched to calling him "Su Bai-gege" (Big Brother Su Bai).
The nearby store clerk automatically assumed they were related—after all, the twins and Su Bai were all good-looking. It wouldn’t be strange if they were family.
So, the clerk didn’t bat an eye as Su Bai slipped into the fitting room where a girl was already changing.
Once Su Bai squeezed into the cramped space...
Well, when someone invites you so earnestly, how could a gentleman like him refuse?
He was just being helpful!
Thus, Su Bai assisted Wan Xinyan with her wardrobe dilemma.
Curious, he couldn’t help asking, "How old are you and your sister?"
"We’re adults! We’ll be eighteen this summer," Wan Xinyan giggled. "Su Bai-gege, why ask something so random?"
"Your skin just feels so soft... Wait, no—if we’re the same age, why call me ‘gege’?" Su Bai laughed too.
"Because you give off such a reliable vibe! Age doesn’t prove anything in this world."
Wan Xinyan sighed. "Take you, for example—you’re only eighteen but already drive such a nice car, yet you never flaunt it. Unlike some people... cough some people!"
"Haha, he really is..." Su Bai instantly got her meaning.
That local guy’s antics were just too meme-worthy. Anyone who knew him couldn’t help but roast him.
"Xinyue and I usually pinch pennies, too afraid to splurge on anything fancy. Other girls in the arts college wear Lululemon, but we stick to Decathlon. Sure, people online say clothes are all the same, but the fabric quality is definitely different."
"True enough."
...
Not bad.
...
Wan Xinyan’s gaze grew increasingly affectionate.
"Su Bai-gege, you know... orphans like us from the countryside, raised by our grandma with no one else to rely on—coming to the big city, our only hope is to change our fate."
She tilted her slightly chubby-cheeked, innocent face up, locking eyes with Su Bai. "Su Bai-gege... can you change our fate?"
