My Online Friend Can't Be This Cute

Su Mengyao glanced at his departing figure and said uneasily to Su Mengli, "He isn't going to bring a roommate over, is he?"

"Probably not. Mo Xiangwen doesn't seem like the reckless type." Su Mengli shook her head. "If he were inviting a roommate, he'd ask for our opinion first. Maybe it's some girl from his class he's close to."

"Does he really have any close female classmates?" Su Mengyao curled her lip. "Why don't I believe that?"

No matter what Su Mengyao and Su Mengli thought of him, he had already returned to the first floor.

However, he first went to the counter to collect the juice, then handed the blueberry juice to Yan Nuoya.

"Let's go, Shishi." Mo Xiangwen held Bai Shishi's other cup of juice for her and smiled. "It's time for you to meet the president and Xiaohuo."

Another Surprise

Just as Su Mengyao and Su Mengli were wondering how much longer it would take him to return, they realized that at some point, he had already come back with a girl.

What a cute girl. Once Su Mengli and Su Mengyao got a clear look at the girl behind him, surprise inevitably appeared on their faces.

After all, they were both beautiful girls themselves. No matter how pretty Yan Nuoya was, she could only be said to have her own charms compared with them.

But Bai Shishi was different. Her features were naturally more on the cute side, and she was wearing a sailor uniform today. Combined with her white hair and red eyes, the two of them initially thought she was cosplaying some anime character.

Su Mengyao looked at her white hair and immediately recalled seeing that classmate of his here that night.

Both of them had white hair. Though there were slight differences, this was only the third white-haired person she had ever seen in her life.

And both of them were equally outstanding in appearance. Could they be sisters?

"Is this... your classmate's younger sister?" Su Mengyao asked hesitantly. "Does that classmate know you brought her little sister here?"

Bai Shishi froze. Little sister? Since when did she have an older sister?

Mo Xiangwen was also briefly stunned, but he quickly realized which classmate Su Mengyao meant.

"No, they're not related by blood." He shook his head.

Su Mengyao asked even more curiously, "Then where did you kidnap such a cute girl from?"

"Listen to yourself. Do I look like that kind of person?"

Su Mengyao blinked and smiled. "I think you might be."

Mo Xiangwen glared at her darkly, while she returned his glare with a fearless smile.

"Then where exactly did this cute little girl come from? She doesn't look like a college student either."

"Ahem, don't rush." Mo Xiangwen pretended to cough, then looked at Bai Shishi. "Shishi, do you want to introduce yourself, or should I introduce you?"

Bai Shishi lightly tugged on his hand, then made a gesture for him to lower himself.

Mo Xiangwen obediently crouched down halfway. To his surprise, Bai Shishi stepped closer, rose slightly onto her toes, and whispered into his ear, "Are they the president and Xiaohuo?"

Her warm breath brushed against his ear, making it itch slightly, but he still nodded.

Su Mengli and Su Mengyao looked at the two of them curiously. What could possibly require whispering?

"Then I can do it myself."

As though encouraging herself, Bai Shishi raised her voice slightly.

"Yeah. Go, Shishi."

Mo Xiangwen gave her an encouraging look and stood back up.

"Hello, President and Xiaohuo..."

Bai Shishi's little hands tightly gripped the hem of her clothes as she took a deep breath.

"I'm Bai Shishi..."

She had originally wanted to say more, then introduce herself as Baibai.

But under the gazes of the three of them, her little face turned red from holding it in. She thought for a long while, yet still couldn't come up with what to say next.

Say it, hurry and say it. They're the president and Xiaohuo, not strangers. Anxious, Bai Shishi kept urging herself in her heart.

How strange. Hadn't Bai Shishi been quite fluent when she greeted him and introduced herself just now?

Mo Xiangwen noticed that something was off about her expression. He took a small step forward, held her shoulders, and pulled her behind him.

Bai Shishi suddenly felt herself being pulled. A person appeared before her, blocking her line of sight, and that suffocating heaviness immediately left her.

Like someone rescued from a swamp, she greedily breathed in fresh air to ease the fear in her heart.

Su Mengli glanced worriedly at Bai Shishi, who had been pulled behind him, then gave Mo Xiangwen a look.

In fact, the moment Bai Shishi greeted Su Mengli and Su Mengyao, Su Mengli had already guessed that she was Baibai.

Especially when she introduced herself as Bai Shishi, that guess became an unquestionable certainty.

But seeing that Bai Shishi still had more to say, Su Mengli found it impolite to interrupt her introduction.

Mo Xiangwen shook his head and mouthed, "It's fine."

Since Bai Shishi wanted to try on her own, Mo Xiangwen still wanted to give her as much opportunity as possible.

After a little while, Bai Shishi finally calmed down somewhat.

She looked at the figure before her, lightly grasped the corner of his clothes, and gathered her courage. "I'm Baibai from the group chat. Please take care of me."

She was greeted by Su Mengyao's quiet cheer—after all, this was a public place, not a private room, so she presumably still cared somewhat about her and her sister's image.

Su Mengli also clapped softly. "I never expected Mo Xiangwen to bring Baibai here. Hello, Baibai."

Having been welcomed, Bai Shishi let out a breath and slowly stepped out from behind him.

It was like crossing a mountain peak. Bai Shishi suddenly felt that she wasn't quite so nervous anymore.

"Hello, Baibai. I'm the president." Su Mengli smiled and held out her hand. "My name is Su Mengli. You can just call me Mengli."

Bai Shishi stood there hesitating for a long while, unable to bring herself to reach out.

Su Mengli didn't urge her, simply maintaining the position of her hand with a gentle smile.

After quite some time, just as her arm was beginning to ache and she was about to give up, Bai Shishi timidly took her hand.

"Hello, Sister Mengli. You can just call me Shishi."

Su Mengli's eyes lit up. She desperately wanted to pull Bai Shishi into her arms and hug her, but afraid of scaring her, she had no choice but to give up.

"Alright, then I'll call you Little Sister Shishi from now on."

Su Mengyao was even more energized. She had already gone around the table and come to Bai Shishi's side, startling Bai Shishi into taking a small step back.

Su Mengyao coughed awkwardly to hide her embarrassment, then held out her hand to Bai Shishi as well, looking impatient.

"Hello, Baibai. I'm Su Mengyao, Xiaohuo."

Bai Shishi looked at the two girls, who looked exactly alike, and asked hesitantly, "Xiaohuo... and the president are twins?"

"Mm-hm. My sister is only a few minutes older than me." Su Mengyao nodded firmly.

Bai Shishi seemed to be gradually getting used to them. This time, she was able to take Su Mengyao's hand directly.

"Hello, Sister Mengyao. I'm Bai Shishi."

Ah, she had finally experienced what it felt like to be an older sister.

Su Mengyao felt like she was about to faint from happiness. She nodded vigorously and asked, "Can I just call you little sister from now on? Can I hug you?"

Hearing Su Mengyao's words, Bai Shishi hurriedly hid behind him, clutching his clothes as though that could give her a little sense of security.

Only then did she poke her little head out, reveal a strained smile, and stiffly shake her head.

"N-No."

Su Mengyao wasn't disappointed. For her, seeing Baibai was already enough to make her happy, and hearing "Sister Mengyao" was an unexpected delight.

There was plenty of time. She could take it slow.

"Sorry. Then I'll still call you Little Sister Shishi, okay?"

"Mm." Bai Shishi nodded lightly from behind him.

Su Mengyao returned to her seat with a satisfied, happy smile.

Mo Xiangwen sighed inwardly. He had also wanted to see if he could get her to call him big brother. Unfortunately, judging by Bai Shishi's reaction, that wasn't happening.

He knew it was a little pathetic, but the temptation of being called big brother by a beautiful girl was truly hard to resist.

No rush, no rush. They could talk about it later. It would be even better if he could hear her call him senior.

Seeing Su Mengyao return to her seat, Bai Shishi let out a breath and stepped out again.

Suddenly, Mo Xiangwen felt his phone vibrating repeatedly. When he took it out, he saw messages from the dorm group chat.

Alarm Clock: Bro, don't blame me for not warning you. Get down here, quick.

Alarm Clock: Classmate Yan is on the first floor. Looks like she spotted you.

Young Master Xi: Classmate Yan's expression is kind of dark. Just passing by her made me feel a chill.

Young Master Xi: The three of us thought she was just in a bad mood because her period came, but then we went upstairs and saw you chatting with several beautiful girls.

Alarm Clock: No way her mood could be good after that.

Alarm Clock: Anyway, with a scene this huge, we won't stick around to watch. We're getting out first.

Young Master Xi: Bro, even if you're a playboy, you need to stay safe.

Young Master Qin: If you need help, message us. I'll call you and get you out of there.

Mo Xiangwen shook his head with a laugh and sent a message.

Old Mo: Alright, it's not what you think. Anyway, I get it. Thanks, guys. I'll treat you to something later.

No rush. There was still another surprise. Everything was proceeding smoothly according to his plan.

A Lie Full of Holes

First-Grade Tea, Second Floor

"When did you get in touch with Baibai in private?"

Su Mengyao glanced at Bai Shishi, who was quietly staying beside him, then looked at him in confusion.

"We didn't notice anything at all beforehand?"

"Rather than saying we kept it secret well, it was more of a coincidence."

Mo Xiangwen recalled how he had initially refused the request. It was only thanks to Yan Nuoya that he had accepted it.

He smiled bitterly and shook his head. "I only found out recently too. Bai Shishi contacted me herself and said she wanted to come to H University to find us."

As for the specific reason Bai Shishi had come, it involved her personal family circumstances, so it wasn't his place to speak for her.

"No wonder you brought UNO upstairs." Su Mengli nodded and glanced around at the surrounding tables. "But if there are four of us, we might need to change tables."

As soon as Su Mengli finished speaking, he clapped his hands as though he had just remembered something.

"Oh, right. I have something to do. I might need to leave for a little while."

"Huh? You have something to do? At a time like this?"

"Mm, just for a little while. I'll be back soon."

Su Mengli's beautiful brows knitted slightly, but quickly relaxed again.

"Since it's something you have to handle now, go ahead. We'll take care of Little Sister Shishi."

Mo Xiangwen lowered his head to look at Bai Shishi beside him and smiled.

"So, Shishi, can you chat with the president and Xiaohuo by yourself for a little while?"

Bai Shishi timidly glanced around. She seemed somewhat hesitant, but she still nodded.

Mo Xiangwen looked back and noticed quite a few students glancing their way from time to time.

It couldn't be helped. All three of them were simply too eye-catching.

He hesitated, then asked, "How about Shishi comes downstairs with me instead?"
