'Did something go wrong with the plan?
'Or could Su Yang have misunderstood something?'
Guo Xiaoying was confused.
However, since she was the one who gave Su Yang the QR code, hence she could not ignore the application.
Hence, after some hesitation, she accepted Su Yang's friend request.
A moment later, a message from Su Yang popped up on her WeChat. 'Is this Little Ya? I am your senior, Su Yang. '
Guo Xiaoying frowned and felt that something was amiss. However, she tried her best to imitate Xue Ya's tone and replied, 'It's me, Senior. Is something the matter?'
After sending the message, Guo Xiaoying looked up and saw Xue Ya waving at her from a table by the window. She quickly put her phone in her pocket and walked over.
Perhaps it was because of the military training for the new students, the majority of the canteen was filled with green military uniforms and military berets. However, when worn by the young and beautiful girls from the liberal arts faculty, they lacked the dignity of a soldier and had the youthfulness and playfulness of a girl which made the canteen look different.
Guo Xiaoying sat down beside Xue Ya and glanced at her best friend.
Xue Ya had prepared herself tomato rice. She scooped a spoonful into her mouth and chewed as she read a book on the table.
The title of the book was "Dawn Blossoms Plucked At Dusk".
Guo Xiaoying patted her hand and said, "You won't be able to digest properly if you read while eating."
Xue Ya turned to look at her. The eyes behind the glasses were clear."I've already explained it to you long ago that reading books has nothing to do with our stomach. You can't trust whatever you read on the Internet."
Even so, she still quietly closed the book and lowered her head to eat another spoonful of rice.
Guo Xiaoying picked up her chopsticks and took a bite of her best friend's egg. She chewed it for a while before she took out a tissue and spat the remnants of the egg onto it.
After that, she wrapped up the tissue and said with a look of disgust, "It's so sour. How could you possibly eat something so sour?"
Xue Ya glanced at her and a smile could be seen on her calm face."It's not like you don't know that I like sour food."
Guo Xiaoying wrinkled her nose and shook her head as she ate her noodles."I don't know, I don't understand. I will never understand."
She had only taken two bites when the phone in her pocket vibrated.
She stole a glance at Xue Ya and realized that Xue Ya was eating quietly with her head lowered. She secretly took out her phone to take a look. It was a WeChat message from Su Yang. 'Little Ya, would you happen to know what Little Ying likes?'
Guo Xiaoying was stunned. 'Something I like?
'Why is he asking this question?
'Could it be... he's really going to court me?
'That's a little strange... '
She thought about it and felt that for the sake of the plan, she had to continue the conversation, so she continued to pretend to be Xue Ya and replied, 'Little Ying likes sweet things like sweets and chocolates. Oh, she likes to have a little sweetness in her food and hates to eat things that are sour. '
After editing the WeChat message, Guo Xiaoying clicked [Send]. As soon as she sent the message, a soft voice whispered into her ear, "What are you doing?"
Guo Xiaoying was scared out of her wits. She grabbed her phone and turned around to see Xue Ya looking at her phone curiously.
Their faces were almost touching. Guo Xiaoying could even feel Xue Ya's breathing.
She panicked and hurriedly shut down the screen. Then, she forced a "natural" smile."Nothing much."
After saying that, she blinked her big eyes and looked innocent.
Xue Ya looked at her strangely. The eyes behind her glasses were filled with confusion.
Xue Ya knew her childhood friend and best friend very well and would instantly be able to tell when she was lying. 'She's obviously hiding something. '
However, Xue Ya knew that Guo Xiaoying wouldn't tell her if she didn't want to. Therefore, she gave Guo Xiaoying a suspicious look and continued eating.
Guo Xiaoying heaved a sigh of relief.
Before she could finish, she heard Xue Ya ask, "By the way, what took you so long at the toilet just now?"
That question was a piece of cake for Guo Xiaoying, hence she did not panic at all. She clenched her phone and replied casually, "I had diarrhea just now."
Xue Ya glanced at her and felt, 'There's definitely something wrong with her. Otherwise, she would not have come up with such a lousy excuse.
'Fine, so be it. I don't want to know what's the problem anyway. '
With that thought in mind, Xue Ya flipped open "Dawn Blossoms Plucked At Dusk" and continued eating.
Guo Xiaoying heaved a sigh of relief when Xue Ya stopped asking questions. She finished her noodles and said, "I need to go to the toilet." Then, she disappeared.
Xue Ya supported her chin with one hand and pressed her other hand on the book. As she chewed her food, her gaze followed her best friend out of the canteen. Her eyes were filled with calm doubt...
'Little Ying is being really strange today.
'Could she be in love?
'I've never heard her mention it before, plus I've never seen her interact with anyone very frequently either... '
After a while, Xue Ya shook her head and continued to read and eat.
...
Guo Xiaoying ran out of the cafeteria and hid in a corner before she was able to finally heave a sigh of relief. Even though she had done all kinds of bad deeds, it was her first time impersonating her best friend in front of her best friend, so of course she would be worried!
When she was outside, she felt much more relaxed. She wanted to have a good chat with Su Yang and see what he was up to!
'Is it possible that... Su Yang is actually a much bigger scumbag than Qu Xuan is despite his gentlemanly looks?
'Is he planning to court both me and Xue Ya at the sametime?
'That's disgusting!'
Guo Xiaoying tried her best to seduce Su Yang into telling her what he was thinking.
In the end, she did not succeed even until the military training resumed that afternoon.
She looked at her phone in a daze and scrolled through her chat history. She realized that, 'He's always been talking about me.
'I've been chatting with him for more than half an hour. However, the dozens of messages from him were all either asking about me or complimenting me...
'But... I'm impersonating Xue Ya at the moment!
'You're such a straight arrow!
'You've been praising a girl in front of another for half an hour!
'Could you stop being such a fool!'
Guo Xiaoying held her forehead and was speechless. 'What happened to Qu Xuan? Where's his WeChat gone!
'Are you going by "hoes before bros"? Could you have forgotten about your own friend just for a girl? That's outrageous!
'I'll look past the fickle relationship you have with him since it has nothing to do with me. But... if you don't give him the WeChat, how am I supposed to carry out the next phase of my plan?
'You're about to ruin my flawlessly perfect plan, you boring fool...
'However... he does seem quite cute... everything he said was about me. '
...
[Affinity+8]
Su Yang was lying on the sofa, eating the food that No. 18 fed him while smiling smugly. 'I see the girl really likes this. '
In fact, after browsing through Guo Xiaoying's memories, Su Yang found out about her other hidden personality, a tsundere.
'Although this girl likes to be strong and relies on her own efforts to do the things she wants, she actually likes being praised.
'As long as someone praised her, she would feel that person was a good person and would want to befriend him!
'Moreover, she needs to find out the praises by accident for it to work.
'To put it bluntly, she's an evil tsundere. '
Therefore, Su Yang decided to play along with her. In the conversation with her "best friend", he kept praising her so that she would have a good impression of him.
Of course, there was another reason why Su Yang's [Affinity] increased so quickly, that would be that he had activated [Friendship]. Therefore, as long as Guo Xiaoying felt that Su Yang was suitable to be her friend, her [Affinity] would increase.
If Su Yang had activated [Love], Guo Xiaoying would have to think that Su Yang was worth being together with her instead.
Su Yang patted No. 18's head and said, "Alright, you should get some rest now."
No. 18 made a face at Su Yang and ran away.
The reason why No. 18 was so angry was because... Su Yang had pulled her over to do his bidding by force.
Su Yang was bored while chatting with Guo Xiaoying, so he went to the backyard to grab No. 18 to feed him food.
No. 18 was originally playing with her brother, No. 17 when Su Yang caught her. Therefore, it would not be surprising if she was unhappy.
Su Yang took out his [Unrestricted Driver's License] from his pocket and glanced at Guo Xiaoying.
[Guo Xiaoying (Friendship): 17 / 100 (Acquaintance)]
'What? The relationship status changed after increasing by 8 points within a short time... '
Su Yang took a look at the [Affinity].
Note: You're already acquainted with her, please work harder and become her friend. If you improve your friendship with her, you can unlock a new "posture"...
'Are we not considered to be friends even with 17 points...
'I thought that we would be friends since we were talking alone with each other.
'Looks like the system has high standards for relationships.
'Also... if we improve our friendship, I can unlock a new posture?
'What the f*ck!
'Why does this look like a 18+ kind of game...
'However, looking at the quotation marks in between the word, I think it's just a substitute name for it. In that case, could this be a new ability?
'I hope it's not something weird. '
Su Yang was thinking about it righteously!
It was a Friday that day, so he had nothing else to do after he was done.
'I think it's time to have a look at this week's recipe item.
'After all, there's guaranteed to be a new recipe every week.
'Moreover, it's a free guarantee.
'It would be a waste not to take it. '
Su Yang opened the system store and took a look.
The items in the system shop were still arranged vertically. The four items were:
[Random Point]*2
[Guardian Talisman]*1
[Recipe Item, Light Bulb With Unknown Abilities]
[Random Voucher, Bronze Ability Enhancement Voucher]
'Hmm, there aren't many [Random Points] and [Guardian Talismans] this week.
'However, I have more important things to do. ' At that thought, Su Yang ignored it and continued looking at the recipe item.
'This week's recipe item is a light bulb.
'Light bulb? I recall adding a point on a light bulb in the past. Why is there... another lightbulb?'
