Su Qi stared blankly at the king prawns in the bowl, freshly peeled by An Ning.

"Why aren't you eating? Didn't you bring them back?" An Ning licked her fingers after peeling them.

She had to admit, it was incredibly alluring, especially combined with her mature, older-sister aura. It directly caused Su Qi's mind to short-circuit.

Under An Ning's gaze, Su Qi dazedly ate a prawn. He had to admit, the king prawns tasted really good, very springy and full of fresh flavor.

Su Qi had always wanted to eat them but never had the chance. The most troublesome part was peeling them, but now that An Ning had done it, Su Qi felt a bit overwhelmed.

How could he possibly deserve such thoughtful care from a campus belle?

Maybe he should peel a shrimp for her in return. Just then, Wang Zijin, sitting to his right, also offered him a peeled shrimp. Unlike An Ning, she was bolder, directly bringing it to Su Qi's mouth.

"What, you can eat hers, but you can't eat mine?" Wang Zijin pouted, seeing Su Qi's dazed expression. This coquettish display left Wang Dongxu and Wu Wei petrified. What was going on? Two campus belles fighting over a guy?

Even Han Yixing, who had been calmly observing, found it amusing. He thought with a chuckle how the male fanbase would react if this scene were posted online – would their jaws drop upon learning their goddesses were so proactive?

"So, tell me, which one is tastier?" After Su Qi finished eating, Wang Zijin leaned in.

Too, too close.

Su Qi could feel her breath, carrying a faint scent of lip gloss, as she exhaled. He subconsciously looked towards An Ning.

He saw that An Ning had also moved very close at some point, her bright eyes shimmering, reflecting his own image. Unlike Wang Zijin's fruity lip gloss, An Ning's scent came from her perfume, a fragrance that highlighted her mature charm, making her appear even more mysterious at that moment.

Su Qi unconsciously swallowed.

He subconsciously turned his head, then turned back towards Wang Zijin. Seeing Su Qi turn his head, Wang Zijin generously gave him a big smile. Her almond-shaped eyes, like autumn water, enhanced by light green colored contacts, seemed to be filled with playful amusement.

Su Qi, being a shut-in, was unaccustomed to making eye contact and quickly straightened his head, avoiding looking at either of them. The two girls were now extremely close.

"The heat from this pot is too much," he said, wanting to fan himself. But with campus belles on both sides, he couldn't. He had to place his hands in front of him for some physical cooling. Even without a mirror, Su Qi knew the temperature of his face.

Wu Wei, on the side, was so angry his eyes turned red. What was going on? Both campus belles were acting like this, and he still wasn't making a move?

If only he could, right? Although he liked An Ning, he understood his own situation quite well.

He'd rather have the pig from his own dorm get "defiled" than have his goddess "defiled" by someone else.

To his surprise, it turned out that An Ning and Wang Zijin, these two "cabbages," were actively "defiling" his dorm's pig. And his pig was ignoring the two cabbages, looking at him for help.

This kid is hopeless! Did drawing too many comics make him stupid?

Wang Dongxu and Wu Wei wore expressions of helplessness. Su Qi cast another pleading glance at Han Yixing, the "big brother" of their dorm. He saw Han Yixing give him a "you can do it" expression.

He shouldn't have been able to see Gu Panpan, but at this moment, Gu Panpan actually stood up and stretched her head to look at him, her eyes full of curiosity, in a posture that suggested she was going to gossip to the very end.

Su Qi wasn't made of wood. Having drawn many comics, he naturally knew that both girls had feelings for him to some extent.

Although he didn't think he had anything that attracted them, and he couldn't grasp their intentions, the reality was just that.

Before the System arrived, Su Qi was also a "face-con." If he had such charming pursuers, Su Qi would probably have fallen for them.

But it was different now; he was about to undergo a transformation. If, at that crucial moment, he discovered he didn't have the "tools," how awkward would that be? Moreover, based on Su Qi's experience as an artist.

The probability of a breakup when a female lead discovers a cross-dressing male lead is very low. More often, it's a shift in roles, with the typically meek female lead taking the initiative, leading to extremely intimate scenes. Su Qi had drawn such scenarios, which even received unexpectedly good reception. After all, the theme was quite attention-grabbing.

However, to satisfy his readers, Su Qi had rewritten the endings of his comics multiple times, eventually choosing a "captivity" ending. They would live happily ever after, loving each other.

For some reason, looking at their bright smiles, Su Qi felt that if he chose either one, his sixth sense told him it would be easy to end up with that kind of outcome.

An Ning looked at Su Qi's flushed face, her eyes fixed on her nose, her nose on her heart, pretending to eat seriously, and found it amusing.

An Ning's favorite thing was his slightly naive personality, which made her, the mature older sister, unconsciously want to bully him.

Seeing his startled expression made her feel psychologically relieved, more so than eating any delicacies.

At least it was better than the current buffet.

Thinking about Wang Zijin touching Su Qi's leg during class that morning and her subsequent remarks, An Ning felt a little jealous. Why hadn't she gotten to touch him before her best friend got a taste?

She then shifted her gaze to Su Qi's legs. They were as smooth as condensed fat, long and slender. Unlike the muscular legs of other men, Su Qi's legs, as befitting a shut-in, looked soft. The advantage was that they weren't fat, and his fair legs appeared slender, without dense leg hair, like a piece of white jade, making one want to play with them.

In fact, people often talked about women's long legs. But due to the need for childbirth, women's inner thighs are much thicker than men's. If we consider leg shape alone, men's legs are more aesthetically pleasing than women's.

Looking at Su Qi's legs, An Ning actually felt a surge of impulse, a desire to touch them all the way up.

How could he have no leg hair? Did he shave it off himself? Boys wouldn't do that, right? Could it be natural?

But she heard that men with naturally sparse leg hair were often weak in that regard. However, she glanced again at Su Qi's slender fingers and his lips, which were chewing food. Hmm—not bad either!

Su Qi felt as if he were being stared at by some prey, and the hairs on his neck stood on end.

Then he felt a warm touch brush across his leg, moving slowly upwards, upwards! Su Qi frantically put down his chopsticks. The chopsticks didn't land steadily and fell directly to the ground, attracting everyone's attention. Su Qi didn't think too much about it; he just wanted to block that delicate hand.

Fortunately, he managed to intercept it just before it reached the "final destination." The city gate was held.

"My god, is he that intense?" Hearing the sound of chopsticks falling, everyone's attention turned to Su Qi and An Ning.

They saw Su Qi's face was flushed red, looking extremely embarrassed. With his feminine features, this expression gave him a certain charm. Wang Dongxu and Wu Wei, on the opposite side, were stunned.

However, they quickly recovered. What were they looking at? They saw this kid from their dorm every day. It was better to openly take this opportunity to admire the campus belles up close.

They saw that the campus belle was currently holding Su Qi's thigh with her right hand. Seemingly feeling that just touching wasn't enough, she squeezed it harder. The signal from the nerves in her hand made her pause. Why did this guy feel even more tender than her best friend Wang Zijin? What should she do if she couldn't stop herself?

"Classmate An, could you please let go of Su Qi's leg?" Wang Zijin said through gritted teeth. This blatant act of indecency was something she hadn't expected!

"I didn't expect it either. My hand just moved on its own, instinctively reaching out, just like someone else this morning! How can the official be allowed to set fire, but the common people not be allowed to light lamps?" An Ning shot her best friend a look that said, "Are you hitting me?"

"Besides, I'm not like you, just letting someone touch me and calling it a touch!"

Then, to Su Qi's stunned amazement, she placed her own long leg over Su Qi's. Feeling the smooth, soft skin, Su Qi unconsciously shifted, and the dazzlingly long leg pressing against hers swayed in response. The sensation was quite peculiar.

"See, this is how you apologize."

Looking at An Ning's mocking smile, Wang Zijin's pretty face turned completely dark.

In the morning, she had grabbed Su Qi and let her touch her leg, which was already the limit of her acceptance. Her upbringing had taught her how to be a lady, after all.

But at this moment, her competitive spirit was ignited. Blushing and with a look of utter determination, she declared, "Who says I won't! I'll put mine over too!!"

The next moment, Wang Zijin's long leg also pressed over, and just like An Ning, she even rubbed it against Su Qi.

Wu Wei, standing to the side, had eyes turning red. Was he even allowed to eat anymore?!

Let go of that young man, let me!
