Chu Jiaojiao and Shen Qingling both attended university in River City, though their schools were some distance apart—about an hour and a half away. Whenever Chu Jiaojiao said she wanted to see Shen Qingling, he would go.

Shen Qingling did not admire Chu Jiaojiao, nor did he have any romantic feelings for her. He simply regarded her as a younger sister who needed protecting.

Before that matter was exposed, Chu Jiaojiao could not exactly be said to have treated Shen Qingling especially well, but she gave him plenty of emotional support.

She encouraged Shen Qingling to apply to Jiang University, cared about his studies and daily life, and treated him like a real older brother—both admiring and relying on him. This made Shen Qingling, who had no family, see Chu Jiaojiao as family.

Unfortunately, Chu Jiaojiao thought Shen Qingling was just simping for her and treated him as nothing more than a backup. It only took a few words, after all; only someone like Shen Qingling would take what she said seriously.

If not for the fact that he had once given her his chance to be adopted, was so easy to fool, and could bring her attention, she would not have bothered putting any effort into him.

Chu Jiaojiao had gained plenty of attention and prestige through Shen Qingling, her childhood friend. Shen Qingling was handsome and a top student at Jiang University. Every time he came to her school to see her, she received her classmates' envious looks, greatly satisfying her vanity.

Just then, one of Chu Jiaojiao's roommates passed by and said with a smile, "Jiaojiao, chatting with that Jiang University top student again?"

"Mm-hm. He said he wants to come see me this weekend."

"Wow, I'm so jealous. You have such a great brother. If I had such a handsome campus heartthrob as a friend, I definitely wouldn't be able to stop myself from pursuing him."

The other roommates in the dorm heard them and came over to join the conversation.

"Exactly. Shen Qingling even trended today. So many people were praising how handsome he is. You'd better hold on to him, or someone else might snatch him away."

"Jiaojiao, he treats you so well. Is he really not your boyfriend?"

Chu Jiaojiao's face immediately turned red.

Whenever girls asked whether Shen Qingling was her boyfriend, she would only lower her head shyly.

She did not want other girls getting close to Shen Qingling. She neither confirmed nor denied their relationship, making others think there was something ambiguous between them and give up on pursuing Shen Qingling.

But if a guy asked, she would immediately deny it and say they were only friends.

She had to remain single in front of men. Otherwise, how could she find a boyfriend with good prospects?

Chu Jiaojiao had never intended to date Shen Qingling. In her eyes, although Shen Qingling was handsome, he had no money and was somewhat boring. He was great as a backup, but dating him would be dull. All she wanted was to enjoy his affection and the attention he brought her.

"Jiaojiao, are you really not considering being a little more proactive? If you don't seize a handsome guy like that, someone else will definitely pursue him."

"Manman has a point. I think you shouldn't be so shy either. A top student like Shen Qingling is bound to have a bright future. If you marry him, you won't have to worry about anything later."

Chu Jiaojiao smiled with crescent eyes. "I know. You don't need to worry about me. I know what I'm doing."

As if. She would never date Shen Qingling. Being handsome didn't put food on the table. These women were so shallow, a bunch of brainless idiots.

Of course, she knew that Shen Qingling, as a top student at Jiang University, would surely earn a decent income after graduating. But she looked down on that little bit of money. She was going to marry into wealth. No matter how capable Shen Qingling was, could he compare to some rich young heir?

Chu Jiaojiao was beautiful and believed she was not meant to live an ordinary life. She dreamed of marrying into a wealthy family. Her greatest dream in life was to marry a rich second-generation heir and live a carefree life envied by everyone.

To that end, nearly all of her living expenses went toward clothes, makeup, skincare, and cosmetics. Every month, she also needed Shen Qingling to give her spending money just to barely get by.

After waiting a long time without receiving a reply from Shen Qingling, Chu Jiaojiao did not think much of it and simply set him aside.

She refused to believe Shen Qingling could keep treating her this way. Wouldn't he be the one begging her to speak to him eventually?

This time, she could not forgive him so easily. She would make him coax her properly before pretending to calm down, and see whether he still dared treat her so coldly!

Naturally, Shen Qingling did not spare her a thought.

He downloaded the app Chance Encounter, intending to see what people on it were saying about him.

The system said he had earned quite a few more points from that photo just now.

Like the fans from his previous life, these girls could become smitten over a single attractive photo and develop feelings for him.

All that attraction could be turned into points. What was not to like about that? It was a guaranteed profit.

Shen Qingling had not even been happy for three minutes before the system added, "Host, please note that when the attraction these people feel toward you turns into disgust because of negative news, the points will be deducted."

Shen Qingling said, "...Got it."

He understood that too. Fans were a double-edged sword. Used well, they were a sharp blade; used poorly, they would stab him instead.

Once the app finished downloading, he opened it and registered an alt account.

The moment Shen Qingling entered, he saw the popular thread discussing him. It was currently pinned at the top, and there were already over a thousand replies about him.

L6: Shen Qingling is very low-key. Other than studying, he works part-time. Plus, he's hard to approach, so everyone keeps their distance. Other than being handsome, there isn't much to discuss, since nobody really knows him.

L7: Friendly handsome guys are still better. With this type, I only dare sneak a look. I'd blush if I said one extra word, and if he gave me the cold shoulder, I'd die of embarrassment.

L8: You guys don't get it. It's precisely handsome guys who are hard to approach that are attractive. Think about it: no one can have that aloof beauty, but then you win him over. That proves you've got what it takes. This is totally my type, hehe.

L9: Exactly. He's cold to everyone else but uniquely gentle with you. Just thinking about it feels amazing, okay? He's the perfect romance novel male lead.

L10: I wonder what Shen Qingling's face looks like when he comes (horny). Would he still look so abstinent and aloof, or would he frown and pant a few restrained breaths?

L11: Oh my god, just thinking about it is too much. Does anyone have his contact info? I want to flirt with him and challenge the impossible!

The farther down he scrolled, the more the comments went off the rails.

Some praised his looks, some wanted to see his body, some wanted his contact information, some posted his photos, and some made downright eye-poppingly explicit remarks...

Shen Qingling raised an eyebrow, but he was not particularly surprised.

His fans in his previous life had said plenty of things like this too. Shen Qingling had long grown used to it.

Girls could be pretty horny too. He had realized that long ago after dating so many girlfriends.

Girls' horniness came in the open variety, the secret variety, and the kind who talked filthy but were actually scared stiff—people who just enjoyed talking big.

Most of Shen Qingling's fans were the third type. They only dared make filthy jokes about him online, one explicit remark after another. In real life, when they saw him, they were usually too excited to say a word.

There were still very few women who dared say such things to his face. Women like that were either extremely confident in themselves or had drunk too much and been so charmed by him that they lost their senses.

But very soon, he would meet a woman like that.
