The next morning, at dawn.

In the graduate dormitory, one of Xia Lin's roommates groggily woke up to use the bathroom and found Xia Lin busy at the sink.

Taking a closer look, she could not help but exclaim, "Xia Lin, you're way too domestic. You're up so early washing your underwear."

"Uh, it's nothing."

Xia Lin replied with a smile, though her expression was slightly awkward.

Her roommate did not pay much attention, so she failed to notice anything unusual about Xia Lin's demeanor. She simply went on muttering, "Xia Lin, honestly, you're so diligent and capable at work too. Whoever marries you in the future is really going to have it good!"

"It's not that exaggerated. I'm just average."

Xia Lin felt a little shy at her roommate's praise.

After all, washing her underwear this morning was not because she was diligent. It was because she had startled awake from a dream and discovered it was dirty, leaving her no choice but to wash it.

This was too embarrassing!

The worst part was that the dream had left an especially vivid impression in her mind after she woke up, filling Xia Lin with guilt.

In fact, Xia Lin had already noticed Su Bai during military training. He was a calm, detached boy, far more mature than others his age.

As for his looks, he was probably the most handsome in that class. By Xia Lin's standards, he could even be called the most handsome guy in this year's Computer Science Department.

His features were upright and masculine, brimming with manly charm. He was nothing like the soft, pretty young idols popular in the entertainment industry these days.

He had a bit of that old-school Hong Kong movie star vibe.

During military training, the counselor sometimes had to supervise them. Whenever Xia Lin watched them train, her gaze would always settle on Su Bai. As he stood at attention, he was as straight and tall as a pine.

She just had not expected that beneath his clothes, his body would be so...

As she washed her clothes, Xia Lin's thoughts began wandering uncontrollably again, and her cheeks flushed.

After hanging up her underwear to dry, Xia Lin no longer felt like going back to sleep. Bored out of her mind, she played with her phone.

As if possessed, she opened her private chat with Su Bai.

His profile picture was a Big White Goose meme, and his username was also "Crispy Big White Goose." It seemed he really did like geese.

After struggling with herself for a while, Xia Lin finally began typing.

Xia Tianlin: Student Su, make sure you return to school on time for class today. Remember to let me know when you're back.

Mm, this was a counselor's duty—to care for her students and be responsible for Su Bai's safety.

Nothing wrong with that!

Only after comforting herself did Xia Lin send the message.

To her surprise, Su Bai replied instantly.

Crispy Big White Goose: Okay. I'll head back after nine for the second class. I'll tell you when I get there.

Xia Tianlin: Mm-hmm.

Xia Tianlin: Student Su, you got up so early.

Crispy Big White Goose: I got tired from swimming last night, so I went to bed early.

Xia Tianlin: Haha, that's good. Early to bed and early to rise is good for your health~

Xia Tianlin: Go do your thing. I'm heading to the research group too.

Crispy Big White Goose: [Big White Goose_waving]

Crispy Big White Goose: Thanks for your hard work, Director Xia.

At that moment, Su Bai had just bounced out of bed and stretched.

Damn!!

He felt refreshed, bursting with endless energy.

Last night, he had tried out the Marriott's swimming pool.

He had even run into two young women who tried to strike up a conversation, but Su Bai turned them down.

They looked rather worldly, giving him a bad feeling.

While he was at it, Su Bai scanned them with the system. After seeing their jaw-dropping "number of relationships," he was glad he had wisely rejected their advances.

At the end of the day, Su Bai still liked them fresh and clean.

What man did not, deep down?

After swimming, Su Bai went to the executive floor and ordered two cocktails at the executive lounge.

They tasted pretty good and were not very strong, leaving him only slightly tipsy.

After returning to his room, he had only intended to lie down and rest for a while, but he fell asleep immediately.

He figured it had only been a little past eleven when he dozed off, and he slept all the way until seven-thirty in the morning.

His sleep quality was exceptionally high—he had slept as soundly as a baby!

This was enough to confirm that the system had indeed improved Su Bai's physique through the Beginner Body Strengthening Fluid.

After a standard eight hours of sleep, he simply couldn't fall asleep again.

This was Su Bai's ideal physical condition.

Sleeping too much or too little both indicated that something was slightly wrong with the body.

Besides...

The system had said that the strengthening fluid would further enhance Su Bai's original strengths.

Yesterday, Su Bai had still been a little unclear about exactly what his strengths were.

Now, Su Bai lowered his head and took a look.

He understood immediately.

"Sigh, it's so early in the morning. There's no one I can ask to help me. Senior school sister is probably still asleep."

With no other choice, Su Bai left Zhou Jialu a message and went swimming.

After his swim, he had a buffet breakfast.

The hotel breakfast was quite abundant. There were online reviews saying that one could easily get sick of it after eating too much, but Su Bai had yet to experience what it felt like to eat it for several days in a row. He would take his time savoring that experience over the next few days.

That was also the point of Su Bai staying at the Marriott for a full week—to see whether living in a hotel long-term was comfortable enough.

At the same time, he could use this period to spend money, receive cashback, and accumulate funds, giving himself more options when choosing a place to live later on.

While eating breakfast, Zhou Jialu replied. She said that she planned to go straight to the 4S dealership to resign, then come to the hotel to find Su Bai.

Crispy Big White Goose: Then I'll come pick you up. About when do you think you'll be done?

Lulu: It'll be quick. Resigning as an intern isn't that troublesome. Besides, I told the manager last night, so the relevant paperwork is actually already prepared.

Crispy Big White Goose: [Big White Goose_Thumbs Up]

Crispy Big White Goose: Senior school sister's decisiveness is incredible.

Lulu: Oh, isn't it because I'm afraid that if I act too slowly, junior might start overthinking? After all, now that I'm in a relationship, it wouldn't be appropriate to keep doing a job like selling luxury cars.

Crispy Big White Goose: True.

Lulu: Hehe, I'm very devoted. From now on, my tenderness will belong to junior alone~

Not bad.

Girls as devoted as senior school sister were indeed rare in this day and age.

Of course, the root of Zhou Jialu's devotion was Su Bai's wealth, as well as how readily and casually he spent money on her.

But many girls, even after getting involved with a rich man, still couldn't settle down. They wanted to use him as a stepping stone to become even more elite socialites.

Some were even worse. They dated rich guys and accepted their material support, yet still found life too dull and boring, cheating with other men.

Don't think rich people couldn't get cheated on. Some gold-digging women were genuinely trashy. To put it more crudely, their sense of service was absolutely terrible.

No matter how well you treated them, they could always find a reason to convince themselves to cheat.

Bottom line?

They had none at all.

In contrast, whether based on Su Bai's own observations or the system's assessment, senior school sister had proven herself to be genuinely pure-hearted.

Su Bai would only invest in girls who remained loyal to him and consistently provided him with emotional value.

A little after eight, Su Bai finished getting ready and drove his Mercedes-Benz GLE to the 4S dealership he had visited just yesterday.

This time, however, his goal and mindset were completely different.
