【Long Xing: Affection 78】
Target achieved!

An Han sat in front of the computer, beaming with joy, his face full of excitement.

Next target: Su Peng!

【Su Peng: Affection 100】

He needed to lower it by at least 21 points to meet the requirement.

The difficulty shot up dramatically!

But Long Xing was already dealt with! He was only one step away from becoming a man again!

There was no way he could back down at this point! He just had to repeat what he’d said to Long Xing earlier!

Without hesitating much, An Han walked straight out of the room and knocked on the door of the neighboring dormitory down the hallway.

Pushing the door open directly, he stuck his head inside and called out to Su Peng, who was sitting at the head of the bed and seemed about to take a nap: “Apprentice, come out for a sec!”

Su Peng looked up at the small head poking through the door crack. Seeing that An Han looked oddly excited and energized, he felt a bit puzzled.

Just moments ago, An Han had looked like he was on the verge of a breakdown—now he was fine?

That mood swing was way too big.

Because of his earlier behavior of taking advantage of An Han, even though he had been preparing for a nap, Su Peng quickly climbed off the bed and hurried out into the hallway to meet him.

Looking at An Han’s radiant complexion, Su Peng temporarily set aside his doubts and asked curiously, “What’s up?”

“Um… can you lend me your ID card?”

An Han lowered his head, biting his lower lip, smoothly putting on a conflicted expression.

“My ID card?”

“Yeah, I want to take out a loan… using your ID…”

“Using my ID for a loan?” Su Peng froze several times in a row, but soon switched to a gentle expression. “Did you run into some trouble and need money urgently?”

The conversation was almost exactly the same as when he’d tricked Long Xing earlier!

This is it!

“Not really, I just want to buy an iPhone 13…”

Su Peng suddenly understood and smiled as he shook his head. “You don’t need a loan just to buy a phone.”

An Han suppressed the excitement bubbling up inside him and was about to continue, when he saw Su Peng already taking out his phone.

“How much is the top configuration now? Thirteen thousand? I’ll lend you fifteen thousand.”

“Huh? What?”

“The transfer record from when you helped me buy lunch last time… found it.”

“Eh?”

Only then did Su Peng look up, smiling. “Check if you’ve received the money.”

An Han fell silent and checked his Alipay balance, staring in shock at the huge five-digit number.

Are you sick?

Three sentences and you spend fifteen thousand on me?

Just how rich are you to look this unconcerned?!

Are we really that close?

He’d heard before that Su Peng used a computer worth over ten thousand, and that this guy was supposedly very wealthy. But usually he didn’t spend lavishly, didn’t use luxury goods, and only often treated others to meals… An Han had long forgotten that Su Peng was actually a rich young master!

Damn it!

“Online stores probably don’t have stock right now. How about we go check a physical store?”

Su Peng acted as casually as if he’d just given An Han three bucks and suggested going to the convenience store to buy a soda together.

An Han felt sour, lowered his head, and almost burst into tears.

The wealth gap was too big!

Change tactics! Think of another way!

He nervously tucked the hair at his temple behind his ear. “Forget it, I was just saying it casually.”

“Buy it. I don’t even want interest—pay me back whenever.”

“Then add a bit more, I’ll take the money to buy a house?” An Han deliberately used a sharp, caustic tone to provoke him.

Su Peng froze, a flush spreading across his face as he guiltily shifted his gaze aside. “That… usually comes after getting engaged, right?”

What the hell are you thinking?! That sounded like a confession!

“Men!” An Han emphasized, though his cheeks were already burning and his heart quietly speeding up.

“Just kidding.”

The way you’re blushing looks nothing like a joke!

Sure enough, after hitting 100 affection points, Su Peng was much more proactive than before!

An Han fell silent for a moment. “Wait here.”

“Okay.”

He returned to his own dorm and looked at his trash can.

Inside were the leftovers from his lunch, a few tissues, and a Coke can.

Not dirty enough.

He turned his head and looked at Chen Junjie’s trash can instead.

Watermelon rinds, leftover lunch, cigarette butts…

This one would do!

Malice rose in An Han’s heart. Gritting his teeth, he walked over and picked up the trash can.

“What are you doing? Helping me take out the trash?”

He didn’t answer Chen Junjie. At this moment, he was already prepared to get beaten badly—all for the sake of becoming a man again!

He pushed the door open again and carried the trash can to Su Peng.

Su Peng looked at him with a puzzled expression, his smile still gentle. “What’s wrong?”

An Han’s heart pounded violently. He realized that Su Peng’s smile made his legs feel weak and his heart soften.

Don’t be afraid! Just a beating! For the sake of becoming a man again!

He forced himself to lift the trash can, staring straight into Su Peng’s eyes.

“What are you doing?” Su Peng looked at his actions in confusion, still smiling gently. “Throwing out the trash, then going to buy the phone?”

Faced with Su Peng’s caring and tender gaze, the little bit of malice in An Han’s heart gradually faded, replaced by a deep sense of guilt.

It’s over—I can’t do it!

Just like how he would never dump a trash can over his own family member’s head.

“Throw… throwing out the trash…”

An Han stammered as he walked toward the end of the hallway.

A hundred affection points is mutual.

So it also affects how I feel about Su Peng…

With his hands in his pockets, Su Peng followed him. “Let’s go, I’ll buy you the phone.”

“I said I don’t need it! I was just joking! Who knew you were that rich?!”

An Han snapped back irritably, but then suddenly realized that if he stayed with Su Peng through lunchtime, there would always be chances to lower his affection.

As for whether it would keep increasing… it was already at a hundred anyway, so it didn’t matter.

After throwing away the trash, An Han forced himself to put on a shy expression despite his burning cheeks, and asked coolly, “Let’s go?”

Use coldness first to make Su Peng dislike me. He really hates this cold attitude of mine—he even lost his temper last time.

Su Peng walked to his side, his smile growing even gentler.

The cold expression was hard to maintain. Just a glance at that smile made the burning spread across his entire face.

An Han controlled his gaze, not daring to look at Su Peng directly. He clearly sensed that when he was with Su Peng, his heart became unusually soft, and his heartbeat often sped up, his face flushing.

At first he thought it was guilt from deceiving Su Peng, but now it seemed that his sexual orientation was being further twisted by the system.

Steady your mind! Victory is just one step away!

An Han and Su Peng left the dormitory building side by side. Each had their own thoughts, yet neither spoke first.

Su Peng enjoyed the time spent with An Han, while An Han’s mind was full of calculations.

Trip him on purpose? Spill a drink all over him? Or… pranks at that level probably wouldn’t work, but doing something too excessive was something he couldn’t bring himself to do.

It wasn’t until they walked out of the school that An Han suddenly looked at Su Peng in panic.

Wait a second!
Isn’t this basically a date?!
