Chapter 1 Prologue

  Makassar University

  Qian Shi Nu had just returned to school when she ran into Yue Zhengzi Mo and An You Nuan, the two of them were in the distance, holding hands, laughing and chatting, occasionally nibbling on each other's ears, and affectionately punching each other. This scene was truly lovely, Qian Shi Nu couldn't help but feel a little envious. She had originally thought about saying hello, but now it seemed like it would be too embarrassing to approach them. So Qian Shi Nu decided to head back to her dormitory to put down her things and not disturb them.

  "Ah, Xi Nu."

  Qian Shino was about to turn around and leave when he heard a familiar voice calling out his name, An Yu Nu.

  "Alright." Qian Shi Nuo turned his body sideways and responded.

  Only then did An Yu Nuoluo pull Le Zhengzi Mo close and run to Qian Shi Nuo's front.

  "Xinuo, just back?"

  "Really? And you guys?" Qian Shi asked with a knowing smile, her eyes sparkling mischievously as she added: "Oh, on a date?"

  "Hey, Shi Nuo, look at that gaze of yours, as if you've been caught red-handed." An Yuannuan didn't seem to mind, but being said so by Qian Shi Nuo, she pulled Zi Mo even closer.

  Le Zhengzi Mo stood beside him for a while and slowly opened his mouth: "You Nuan, when did you become so familiar with Shi Nu?"

  Lè Zhēng Zǐ Mò had been wanting to ask since just now, but never got a chance to interrupt, the conversation between the two women was really boring.

  "It was last time, I asked you to go out for dinner at night, you said you were busy, but actually that day I also called Shi Nuo. It's really a pity, the steak that day was so delicious, much more than when we went together last time, right? Shi Nuo." An Younuo spoke with gusto, not forgetting to proudly ask Qian Shi Nuo.

  Qian Shi Nu didn't say a word, only awkwardly chuckled twice. The events of that day were still fresh in her memory. She had gone to a high-end restaurant but hadn't been able to fill her stomach. That night at around 1 or 2 am, Qian Shi Nu was awakened by hunger. She thought about getting something to eat but was afraid of disturbing Yi Meng Yu, so she endured for over half an hour. Only when she was extremely hungry did she fall asleep again.

  "I didn't tell you that I had an appointment with Xiao Shen and the others, why didn't you say earlier that you had an appointment with Shi Nuo? If not, I might have forgotten my principles and gone out with you guys." Le Zhengzi Mo said it in a tone that was neither here nor there, but a pair of disdainful eyes had already appeared beside him.

  "It's really true that a dog can't change its habit of eating feces, be careful, Tianuo, there are already bad people eyeing you." An Yuwen said jokingly, but every word was laced with a sour tone, especially when she emphasized the "bad person" in a louder voice.

  Le Zhengzi Mo snorted, "You Nuan, are you indirectly scolding yourself as shit?" After finishing speaking, he laughed so hard that he couldn't straighten his waist.

  "You!" An Yuannuan was so angry at Le Zhengzi that she couldn't speak, just as she was about to burst out in a loud scolding, she was stopped by Qian Shinuo.

  Qian Shi Nuo knew that if things continued like this, jokes would become reality. The two originally close couples were about to start a war because of her. She cleverly interrupted the impending battle, "Hey, You Nuan, Zi Mo isn't that kind of person. He'll forget his principles at the sight of beauty, pigs can fly too."

  "It's just that Xiao Mei understands me."

  "Hey, Shino, what did you just call Zimo? Brother Zimo? When did you two start calling each other brother and sister?" An Yuannuan was clearly confused.

  Le Zhengzi Mo stopped laughing and calmly said, "I recognized Shi Nuo as my sister earlier than you invited Shi Nuo to dinner. I'm not telling you that when I see Shi Nuo, I feel a strong sense of familiarity, and I always think she looks like my own little sister."

  "Are you bragging to me? Even if you acknowledged Shinno as your sister earlier, I can guarantee that my relationship with Shinno is definitely better than yours." An Yoo-warm said with confidence.

  "You woman, don't you know what 'first come first served' means? I knew Xiao Nuo earlier, she's my sister!"

  "Too early, isn't it? You're a woman, don't you understand women?"

  "Ah ah ah, stop it!" Qian Shi Nuo couldn't take it anymore. These two people, one who was two years older than her and the other who was one year older, how could they look even more immature than herself? Was this really the school's publicly recognized model couple? This was too mind-boggling, she looked left and right, and her head was about to swell up from their quarrel.

  "What's wrong with you, Xiao?"

  "Xiao Mei, what's wrong?"

  "It's great, you two are so in sync, I can finally rest assured that you're a couple." Qian Shi Nu said with a sigh of relief.

  Shi Nu's words amused An Yu, "Shi Nu, you have to get used to it. In the eyes of all the students in school, Zi Mo and I are a model couple, but ordinary couples still have their little quarrels. As the saying goes, 'beating is intimacy, scolding is love'. You're obviously inexperienced in romance, arguing will make your feelings stronger."

  Saying that, An Younuo leaned in closer to Yue Zhengzi's side, and Yue Zhengzi also cooperated by putting his hand on An Younuo's shoulder and pulling him back. Smiling, he said: "Yes, Shi Nuo, I often bicker with Younuo, but this is also a kind of fun, don't mind it."

  Luo Zheng's words and actions are simply irresistible.

  Qian Shi Nu looked at the couple in front of her, who were arguing passionately one moment and then showing affection the next. She couldn't help but feel embarrassed, saying awkwardly, "Well, that's good, that's good."

  "Xiao Nuo, never mind us, how come you have so many things this week?"

  An Yu Nu saw that on both sides of Qian Shi Nuo were placed large and small packages, and a school bag was still carried on her back, looking exactly like a young girl who had just entered the city.

  "This week's stuff is a bit more, so it looks more magnificent."

  "Later on, when you have a lot of things, just give me a call and I can pick you up from school." Le Zhengzi Mo said seriously.

  "Yes, Shi Nuo, it's okay if you don't want to call Zi Mo, calling me is fine too, I can come pick you up." An Yuannuo said with a sense of justice.

  Qian Shi Nu was moved by the two of them, but she just didn't like to ask for help from others. Although her father drove a taxi, it wasn't always convenient for him to send Qian Shi Nu to school. In elementary school, Qian Shi Nu was still a small girl, and her development was slower than others, only 1 meter 30 centimeters tall. But later on, she grew rapidly from the sixth grade onwards, as if she had been drinking too much milk or had undergone genetic mutation. The elementary school textbooks were numerous and thick, and Song Ya Yun always reminded Qian Ze Bing to help his sister a bit. However, Qian Shi Nu never let her brother carry her backpack for her, nor did she allow Song Ya Yun and Qian Bing Nan to pick her up from school. From young to old, Qian Shi Nu knew that she had to do things on her own, truly an independent and self-reliant girl.

  "It's not worth it, this little thing is not much." Qian Shi Nu shook her head in refusal.

  "Xiao Nuo, are you afraid that others won't know you're a tomboy? Carrying so many things to exercise your arm strength."

  "It's settled then, come to me if you need anything in the future." Le Zhengzi Mo didn't wait for Qian Shi Nu to refuse again and immediately bent down to pick up the two large bags beside her, heading towards the girls' dormitory.

  "Zǐ Mò Gē, I can come myself." Qian Shi Nuō wanted to chase after him, but was caught by ān Yùnuǎn's hand.

  "Xino, don't decline anymore, Zimo has already acknowledged you as his sister, so just accept his kindness."

  "But..."

  "Don't be like this anymore, or you'll become an outsider. Let's go." An Yuannuan was slightly annoyed by Qian Shi's ink marks.

  Qian Shi didn't make a sound, and was pulled along by An Yu Nu to follow Le Zheng Zi Mo's footsteps.

  "Alright, I won't go up to the dormitory anymore, and I also can't go up. You help Tianuo remind him a bit, I'll leave first."

  "Got it."

  Le Zhengzi Mo, just as he was about to leave, seemed to have thought of something and turned around to ask: "Shi Nuo, how's the preparation for that social gathering going?"

  These days, Qian Shi was not thinking about the school's social gathering because of Yi Mengyu's matter, nor was it because of Feng Jinxin. Over the weekend, she went to attend Luo Chi's birthday party and didn't have time to think about anything else. She lowered her head in silence, scratching her head awkwardly as she said, "I...haven't prepared yet."

  "What! Shi Nuo, you haven't prepared yet? The welcoming party is in two days, can you still make it?" An Yu Nu was worried about Qian Shi Nuo.

  "Shino, time is limited, so be sure to prepare well. If there's anything you don't understand or need help with, feel free to ask me or Yuwen. Remember to seize every opportunity to show yourself." Le Zhengzi Mo looked much calmer than An Yuwen.

  "Okay, I will prepare well."

  "Hmm." Ryouzou nodded and left.

  "You didn't prepare for this evening's party, did you? I told you last time when we had dinner together that you should pay attention to it, but you didn't. You let me down." Qianshi Nu felt guilty towards Younuo because of that one meal.

  An Yu didn't mind, just now seeing her boyfriend so calm and not angry, how could she blame him? "Shi Nuo, you don't have to apologize to me, I'm just worried about you, these two days will be tough for you, but don't worry, I'll help you."

  Qian Shi's comforting smile, I didn't expect that in this school, I could meet such a good student union president and vice-president, who would care so much about my affairs.

  Qian Shi Nuo had just returned to her dormitory when she saw Jin Xiao An running out of the neighboring dormitory, bouncing and jumping.

  "Xiao An, what's up? Is there something good happening?"

  "Heh heh, what's good about it?" Jin Xiaoan said with a denial, while laughing like an idiot, her words and actions were indeed inconsistent.

  Qian Shi Nu suddenly remembered that day Qian Ze Bing and Jin Xiao An returned home alone, had something happened?

  "Jin Xiaoan, you're not having another one of your Thousand Year Ice infatuations again, are you? By the way, did anything actually happen that night?"

  "Xino, what are you thinking? Nothing happened between me and Ze Bing, he just sent me back home."

  "Is that all?" Qian Shi Nu couldn't believe it, she had given them such a good opportunity, yet nothing happened. She was even almost killed that night, what a waste of her kindness.

  However, when Shinoze Ice sent me home for the first time, I felt that it was already worth my happiness. Jin Xiaoan said with great satisfaction.
