Xia Shuyi's Favorability toward Shen Lang was only 24 points at the moment.
But they had known each other for less than two hours and had barely talked about anything.
What's more, this was a Favorability score—the most straightforward measure of what someone of the opposite sex truly thought of you deep down, essentially a report card for all your behavior in their eyes.
To put it crudely, it was an access card for judging whether a girl was willing to get to know you on a deeper level.
Just a few words had raised the Favorability of a worldly woman like Xia Shuyi by so much. It was obvious just how absurdly powerful the system was.
No scumbag online who toyed with women and abandoned them could ever compare.
Of course, the system had also said it would analyze the other person's information and provide answer options for Shen Lang to choose from.
Whether he could raise her Favorability toward him ultimately depended on Shen Lang himself.
After returning home, Su Lexuan's chat window finally lit up. "Just finished showering. I'm about to watch a horror movie with my roommates—the number one horror movie in Korea, Gonjiam: Haunted Asylum! Proud."
A selfie screenshot accompanied the smug sticker.
Shen Lang tapped the screenshot and enlarged it, immediately feeling a little heated.
It showed a laptop on a table playing a horror movie.
Yet at the bottom of the shot was a pair of long, evenly proportioned, slender feet that still had a soft fullness to them. Tiny droplets of water clung to them, proving she really had just showered.
Several other girls were also in the frame, and all of them were quite attractive.
Especially the short-haired girl closest to Su Lexuan, who was eating chips. Her looks were no worse than Su Lexuan's.
She had a delicate oval face, large sparkling eyes, a high nose bridge, and a cherry-red mouth. Her fair skin was so tender it seemed as though moisture could be squeezed from it.
Aside from that short-haired girl, the other girls were all trembling as they hugged pillows, looking like they wanted to watch but were too scared to.
The photo had probably been taken casually. Shen Lang did not think Su Lexuan was the type to send a picture of her legs to a guy she had just met.
Sure enough, Su Lexuan quickly recalled the screenshot and sent an awkward sticker. "Did you see it?"
1: I saw it. I want to lick them from top to bottom!
2: I didn't see it. What did you recall?
3: I saw it. Your roommates are way too timid. This movie isn't that scary.
To be fair, Shen Lang, who had a serious foot fetish, really wanted to choose option 1. Those jade-like feet truly looked delicious.
But if he chose option 1, Shen Lang believed a red exclamation mark would definitely appear in his WeChat chat window.
"I saw it. Your roommates are way too timid. This movie isn't that scary. 😂😂"
Shen Lang still chose option 3.
Anyway, if they kept chatting, there would come a day when he could play with those jade-like feet himself!
Su Lexuan had only wanted to casually send Shen Lang a picture of herself watching a horror movie with her roommates. She had not expected to accidentally capture both her roommates and her legs.
Fortunately, he had not noticed those things right away and had only focused on the computer screen. She let out a small sigh of relief, then happily tapped away at her phone.
"Come on, this is Korea's number one horror movie! I heard it even scared someone to death on the day it premiered!"
"Is it really that exaggerated? I watched it alone, and at night too."
"Then you're really brave. I wouldn't dare watch horror movies alone, but I can't help loving them. I'm just like them—bad at it but still love playing. 😂"
1: If you're so timid, don't watch it. You could easily scare yourself into having problems.
2: What's the name of that short-haired girl next to you? Can you send me her WeChat?
3: Share the 32nd video in your Douyin favorites with her, and tell her that if she learns the trick in the video, she won't be scared anymore.
"The 32nd video in my Douyin favorites?"
Shen Lang opened Douyin in surprise, found the 32nd video in his favorites list, and played it. He immediately burst out laughing and sent it to Su Lexuan.
"I'll teach you a method. Follow what it says, and you won't be scared of horror movies anymore."
"Really?"
Su Lexuan curiously opened the Douyin video Shen Lang had sent.
The video showed a girl watching a horror movie. The moment a fierce ghost appeared, it startled her badly.
But the next second, the girl immediately took out her phone and played In the Night Garden. She clapped while psyching herself up, then cried out "Makka Pakka" along with In the Night Garden, still shaken.
"Hahaha, I'm dying."
After watching it, Su Lexuan laughed so hard she swayed from side to side. The roommates watching the horror movie beside her all looked over in surprise.
Seeing this, Su Lexuan subconsciously lowered her phone screen. Then she lay on her bed facing the wall and typed while trying not to laugh.
"I'm dying, this video is way too funny. 😂😂"
"So? Don't you feel a little less scared now? 🐶"
"Yeah, now that you mention it, kind of. But I wouldn't dare do that in the dorm. My roommates just thought I was nuts."
Ding! Su Lexuan's Favorability toward the host has increased by 2 points. Current Favorability: 9. Please keep up the good work!
Hearing the system's voice beside his ear, Shen Lang became even more motivated. It seemed he had once again found something she was interested in.
For the rest of the time, Shen Lang carefully considered the correct answers provided by the system.
Every time he sent an answer from the correct option, Su Lexuan responded incredibly quickly.
Sometimes, by the time Shen Lang finished typing one sentence, Su Lexuan had already sent her third reply.
And the longer they chatted, the more stickers Su Lexuan used. At the beginning or end of every sentence, she included cute stickers with a girlish feel.
From Su Lexuan's replies, Shen Lang could vaguely sense her eagerness to keep talking with him.
Even after the two-hour horror movie ended, Su Lexuan was still immersed in her cheerful conversation with Shen Lang.
She did not notice at all that several roommates had quietly climbed onto her bed and were secretly reading her chat history with Shen Lang.
"Is it really that delicious? Then next time you come over, can you take me there to eat? We can split the bill. I can treat you too!"
It was not until one roommate read Su Lexuan's message aloud in a squeaky voice that Su Lexuan suddenly snapped back to reality. She found her roommates looking at her with knowing smiles, their eyes gleaming mischievously.
"What are you doing?"
With her heart racing and face flushed, Su Lexuan turned off her phone screen, terrified these girls would see her chat history with Shen Lang.
"Lexuan, Lexuan, what department is he from?"
"Lexuan, is he handsome? Is he the one who asked for your WeChat a few days ago? The guy from the Finance Department?"
"Tell us, Lexuan! We promise we won't tell anyone else!"
Her roommates' gossiping spirits were burning brightly.
None of them had expected that Su Lexuan, who normally kept everyone at arm's length—the White Moonlight countless guys at school dreamed of—could be chatting so intently with a boy!
