Today's "Introduction to Mao Zedong Thought" class was attended by all the men, who were particularly spirited.

Of course, their attention wasn't on the bald, greasy teacher lecturing at the podium, but rather on An Ning's qipao.

Beautiful, the fiery red qipao perfectly showcased An Ning's proud figure and her rose-like, gorgeous appearance, captivating all the men.

However, it didn't attract Su Qi, who had the personality of a steamed bun, the one she wanted to see.

A little annoyed, she called Su Qi's WeChat again, but it still showed as unanswered.

Her delicate eyebrows furrowed, and the hand holding her phone trembled slightly.

No one had been avoiding her like this for a long time. Su Qi, don't let me catch you.

Although a smile played on her lips, for some reason, Gu Panpan, who was sitting next to her, shivered.

Compared to the angry An Ning, Wang Zijin was much calmer. This was because he had discovered Su Qi had posted in the QQ group that morning, and he figured Su Qi was currently preparing for cross-dressing.

Su Qi not coming wasn't surprising to her.

She was actually looking forward to Su Qi's cross-dressing. After all, his skin and those deep peach blossom eyes hidden beneath his bangs were so attractive. If he cross-dressed, she wondered how many men he would attract. Was this considered a case of beauty causing trouble?

If they really became boyfriend and girlfriend, making Su Qi cross-dress wouldn't be without its charm.

At this moment, Wang Zijin had already fallen into fantasies about Su Qi cross-dressing.

An Ning looked at Wang Zijin's expression, not too surprised by Su Qi's absence, and felt that things were beyond her imagination. It seemed her best friend had much more information about Su Qi than she did!

Moreover, last night at dinner, when Su Qi's reasons for getting rich and treating them to a meal were brought up, the guys were hesitant, and none of them spoke up in the end.

It seemed that after class, she would have to go to Su Qi's dorm to find out what was going on.

At this moment, she didn't know that a picture of her wearing the qipao to class had gone viral, being frantically reposted in the Su University group. Someone had even edited her picture into a campus news article.

It caused a flood of reposts from countless men.

Su Qi looked at the updates in the QQ group. An Ning's red qipao outfit revealed her mature, dominant aura, like a plum blossom blooming in winter, so stunningly beautiful against the white snow.

What a shame, she didn't go today! She missed out on this treat.

Looking at the picture, Su Qi recalled the intoxicating sensation of touching her firm, elastic long legs at the buffet last night.

They felt like high-quality silk, or like smooth, white jade. They were delicate to the touch, yet carried a hint of coolness, dispelling all the summer heat.

And thinking of An Ning reminded her of Wang Zijin's long legs.

Both had their own merits; Wang Zijin's legs were more elastic, while An Ning's felt cooler to the touch.

It would be great if she could touch both pairs of legs at the same time!

Just as Su Qi was lost in thought, her phone began to vibrate. The "nuclear explosion" ringtone jolted Su Qi to attention.

An unknown number? Who could this be? A telemarketer?

Clearing her throat a few times, Su Qi answered the phone with a disguised voice: "Hello?"

Hearing the voice, An Ning on the other end was taken aback. She could tell it was Su Qi's voice, but why did she have the illusion of a female voice? To confirm if it was really her, she asked, "Is this Su Qi?"

An Ning's voice was very distinctive, a mature, alluring "big sister" tone. Su Qi recognized it immediately.

"Why didn't you reply to my WeChat messages!? You know who I am, right!?" An Ning's voice remained the same, but Su Qi felt as if she was biting her lip while speaking! If she answered incorrectly, Su Qi felt the consequences would be dire.

"I don't use WeChat much; I have it set to do not disturb," Su Qi replied. After she finished speaking, she heard a "hmph" from the other end of the line, followed by, "Of course, I know who you are! The qipao you wore today is very beautiful!? Especially that vibrant red, it makes you look even more like a blooming rose."

"Hmph, hmph," An Ning's lips curved slightly. She was clearly much more satisfied with Su Qi's explanation.

Meanwhile, Wu Wei, An Ning's secret admirer who had provided Su Qi's phone number, watched his goddess's fluctuating emotions and Su Qi's flustered explanation. He suddenly felt a bit sorry for Su Qi, thinking he would be completely dominated by An Ning in the future.

Thinking of Su Qi's slender, weak frame, and then looking at An Ning, whose stunning S-curve figure was fully accentuated by her qipao, Wu Wei wondered if his goddess would become a "juicer."

Su Qi and An Ning chatted for three minutes. After the call, Su Qi felt like crying. If that damn System hadn't interfered, she would have already won over the beauty.

Moreover, hearing An Ning repeatedly tell her on the phone not to interact with her best friend, Wang Zijin, and recalling Wang Zijin's somewhat extraordinary actions yesterday, it wasn't hard to see that she was also interested in her.

Although An Ning bad-mouthed Wang Zijin on the phone, calling her a "juicer" in a slightly slanderous way, was Su Qi afraid of being squeezed? Obviously not!?

This fate was too melodramatic. Why did their love have to be delayed until now? Even a week earlier would have been good!!

Su Qi clutched her head and forehead, filled with regret!!

Unlike her, An Ning was in a very good mood after hanging up the phone. This was because she finally got Su Qi's number, and from their conversation, she could feel that Su Qi cared about her and paid attention to her feelings. Knowing this made An Ning very happy. At least she wasn't directly rejected like those who had confessed to Su Qi before.

Plus, she had gotten Su Qi's phone number, so the next step was to ask her out for a meal, returning the favor from when she treated them to the buffet last time. Slowly becoming familiar with each other, and then finding a more romantic restaurant.

And then...

Thinking of Su Qi's face, which was more charming than any woman's, and her delicate skin, An Ning's eyes emitted a strange light. She had just asked her roommates and learned that Su Qi had no contact with women in the past two years.

It seemed she was a "chick." Thinking of Su Qi's delicate face, full of shyness, shrunk in a corner, she couldn't help but feel her throat dry. She felt like she couldn't wait any longer!

Wang Zijin secretly observed her best friend from the other side of the corridor. Seeing the clear spark in her eyes, From their childhood interactions, she knew her best friend had made up her mind.

On the other hand, she had made no progress. If not, she would do the same as An Ning and ask Su Qi's roommates for Su Qi's phone number.

She knew An Ning's charm. Wang Zijin didn't think Su Qi would struggle for long under An Ning's allure.

She also had to speed up her progress.

"Why don't we ask a senior from the student council to check Su Qi's admission records? Maybe her phone number is there?"

Just then, her phone rang.

Seeing the caller ID, it was her older sister—Wang Yun. She guessed her sister wanted her to come over to her place this weekend to be a free laborer and cook again.

"Hello—" Wang Zijin drew out the end of her word, indicating her displeasure.

"Zijin, what's with that dismissive tone? I don't like hearing that from you, sister."

"Sister, what's up? I've been a bit busy these past couple of days!"

"Don't be like that. Listen, I found a college student to rent my place."

"Oh, so you want me to move out? I have club activities tomorrow, and I have to help the student council at night. The day after tomorrow, Mom wants me to come home because she misses me. I'm busy these two days, so I'm hanging up now. Bye—"

"Wait, wait! I'm telling you, this tenant is really interesting!"

"I'm not listening, I'm not listening. Like a turtle chanting scriptures."

"She's a young girl, but she's pretending to be a boy. Her skin is so smooth. And she smells really good, a very pleasant scent."

Hearing her sister's description—smooth skin, a boy, a young girl, a nice scent.

It sounded just like Su Qi.

Also, Su Qi wasn't staying in the dorm today, so didn't everything match up?

Hahaha.

Su Qi, oh Su Qi. You truly are...

Is this a case of 'heaven has a door but you refuse to enter, hell has no gate but you come knocking'?

No, that sounds a bit too villainous.

You can't escape this time, Su Qi

In her room, Su Qi shivered involuntarily. She had a feeling someone was talking about her
