Chapter 160 158. Su Peng’s Blind Date
This is bad!
If she remembered correctly, under the seductive effect of the chest binder earlier, Wang Yu’s favorability toward An Han had been sixty-five. Now, without her even noticing, it had grown to seventy-five!
It had suddenly reached the warning line, closing in on eighty!
Wang Yu was clearly the most proper-looking and reliable person around, yet he turned out to be a foot fetishist—and damn it, a foot fetishist who stared at a man’s feet!
The only consolation was that An Han’s interactions with Wang Yu were limited to the fitness club and the esports competition.
She rarely participated in the former, and the latter was about to end and wouldn’t have much to do with her anymore.
At least Wang Yu wasn’t like Long Xing, who lived in the same dorm with her and saw her every day, nor like Su Peng, who shamelessly hovered around her nonstop.
What was even more infuriating was that every time Su Peng came close, she felt inexplicably happy deep down.
So damn annoying!
An Han let out a lifeless sigh, scratching at her hair with her nails. She had no mood to listen to the lecture at all, her face full of anxiety and worry.
Today was an important major course, yet she was tangled up in trivial matters and couldn’t take in anything.
Wait!
It was as if a flash of lightning struck her mind. An Han suddenly realized something and turned to Wang Sheng, asking, “Do you really plan to give me the prize money?”
Wang Sheng froze, looking at her with slight surprise. “What’s wrong? You helped me with so much…”
“Was it Su Peng who told you to do this?”
“No, I’m not that close with Su Peng.”
“Is that so…” An Han looked at him suspiciously.
Wang Sheng awkwardly turned toward the teacher on the podium, putting on an earnest listening expression.
Originally, Su Peng had no motive to sponsor the competition. But maybe he saw her worrying about money, so he took a roundabout approach—using Wang Sheng to pass the prize money to her so she could rent a place!
At first, this was only An Han’s guess. After all, Wang Sheng was the quiet, inarticulate type. For him to suddenly offer his prize money to her sounded absurd.
But now, seeing Wang Sheng’s guilty reaction, An Han understood everything.
“I won’t take the prize money. You keep it as a souvenir.”
Su Peng, you scheming bastard!
He looks honest on the surface, but when he’s forceful he’s like a bandit, and when he schemes he’s just as bad!
She turned her head to look at Su Peng, who was sitting not far behind her. The next second, Su Peng noticed her gaze and met her eyes.
The warmth and gentleness in that look, paired with a handsome face only slightly inferior to Hu Ge’s… An Han’s cheeks instantly flushed red. She immediately looked away.
Damn that gentleness!
Her body’s reaction made her both repelled and embarrassed. She could only force herself to focus on studying and forget what just happened.
By the time class ended, the redness on her face had finally faded. When the bell rang, she stood up and left the dorm building as fast as she could, having already ordered takeout during class.
“An Han, wait—there’s something I need to talk to you about!”
Su Peng’s voice came from behind, but An Han kept her head down and didn’t stop, continuing forward.
“Su Peng’s calling you,” Wang Sheng reminded her, thinking she hadn’t heard.
She shot Wang Sheng a cold glance.
Su Peng not only used the competition sponsorship to take a roundabout approach—he even damn well bribed my roommate!
What a schemer!
Wang Sheng awkwardly avoided her gaze, and she casually explained, “I know, but my takeout is probably already at the dorm.”
She jogged all the way to the dorm entrance. Sure enough, her takeout was already placed on the ground at the door.
She picked it up, unlocked the door, and only relaxed once she entered the dorm.
In the dorm, even if Su Peng chased after her, she would restrain her body’s instinctive flustered reactions because of her roommates’ presence.
“So infuriating…”
Every time she saw Su Peng, she ended up blushing. Su Peng probably thought she liked him.
“Why are you running so fast?”
The next person to enter the dorm was Long Xing. These days he needed to attend fitness club recruitment activities, so after briefly tidying up in the dorm, he went out wearing quick-dry pants and a quick-dry T-shirt.
An Han noticed that this guy seemed to have become obsessed with showing off his muscles in front of people. The way he went out looked like he was heading for a date.
“Being ogled by a bunch of guys in a gay-as-hell way, and he’s actually happy about it?”
She muttered in confusion. But by the time she was almost done with lunch, she realized that no one else had returned to the dorm.
“Chen Junjie is dating, so he’s probably on a date… Wang Yu said there are preliminaries these days, so he’s going to the internet café with Wang Sheng…”
An Han looked up and saw Su Peng walk into the dorm.
So now it’s just a man and a woman alone in the same room?
Did all my roommates get bought off?!
“What is it?” She lowered her head and cleaned up the leftovers on the desk, asking casually.
“Can you accompany me somewhere this weekend?”
An Han was about to refuse instinctively, but recalling Su Peng’s previous help, she changed her wording. “Explain in detail.”
It’s probably something like a relative being sick and needing me to pretend to be his girlfriend, or family pressuring him to marry… in short, the ultimate goal is to establish me as his girlfriend in front of his family!
Absolutely cannot agree!
Su Peng pulled over Wang Sheng’s chair and sat facing her, crossing his legs casually.
Let’s hear what kind of excuse you’ve got.
“My family arranged another blind date for me…”
An Han looked at him blankly, vaguely remembering that Su Peng had gone on a blind date once during the last convention.
“A blind date? Didn’t you already go last time?”
“We didn’t like each other that time,” Su Peng said with a smile. “This time I thought it through. I’ll just try getting along with the blind date. Anyway, as a grown man, I won’t lose out, right? At most I’ll spend some money.”
Hearing him talk about blind dating so casually, An Han suddenly straightened up, her whole demeanor turning serious. “And then?”
“If we get along, we’ll get married when the time comes. If not, I’ll wait for the next one,” Su Peng explained lightly. “I’m an only child, so my family keeps urging me to marry early and have a kid.”
“Otherwise, if I suddenly kick the bucket, such a big family business can’t just go to outsiders, right?”
An Han muttered softly, “You make it sound like there’s a throne to inherit…”
“Come with me to the blind date? I’m a bit nervous going alone. You’re my mentor, after all.”
【Task 1: Reject Su Peng’s request. Reward: A boyfriend from heaven
Task 2: Go home with Su Peng to meet his parents and get engaged. Reward: Engagement gift money
Task 3: Go on the blind date with Su Peng. Reward: Random attribute points】
Hearing Su Peng state in an indifferent tone that he planned to accept the blind date, An Han suddenly felt a rush. She showed a rare seriousness, didn’t even look at the system tasks, and answered without hesitation, “I’ll go! When?”
“This Saturday, on the island.”
“Taxi? Or bus?”
“I’ll drive.”
An Han nodded vigorously. “I’ll make sure everything’s perfectly arranged!”
If I don’t mess this up, I’ll change my gender!
