"Thank you, Junior Xia," Kristia sighed with relief. "Getting a replacement for the graduate ID was quite troublesome. I really appreciate it."

'Aren't we talking about a mere student ID? Why so delighted?'

While Xia Yushuang pondered this, she glanced at Su Yuchen sitting across from her—

Oh my!

Xia Yushuang's eyes widened; he was nearly burying his head in the plate. And why was his face red? Why was there sweat on his forehead?

And what was with that shy and nervous look?

Goosebumps crawled all over… Xia Yushuang truly couldn't appreciate Su Yuchen's current demeanor in the slightest.

She leaned back to glance under the table. Tia Yufei's legs were neatly tucked and well-behaved—then what's going on?

If you're coerced, just blink, I'll rescue you!

Kristia didn't notice Xia Yushuang's subtle movements. She smiled while looking at Su Yuchen, who was visibly nervous because another girl was sitting in front of him, making his sweating look even cuter. She tucked a strand of her blonde hair behind her ear. "Junior Brother Yuchen, don't be so nervous. Junior Xia won't eat you, will she?"

"Junior…Brother?"

Xia Yushuang's pupils contracted. She quickly glanced at Su Yuchen and noticed the shadow clearly evident on his fair face.

The expression under the shadow seemed a bit stiff.

Kristia's attention was all on Su Yuchen. With a light chuckle, she said, "Junior Xia, did you think he's my senior just because he's not wearing the school uniform? You've guessed wrong. He's a freshman this year."

Pausing for a moment, she continued, "Junior Yuchen, in Junior Xia's eyes, you seem very mature."

While speaking, she even reached out to pinch Su Yuchen's face, "Oh~ your skin is so tender. Junior Brother doesn't seem like a graduate student at all~"

"Look at you, all silly. Let's eat, after that, as your senior, I'll show you around the school, okay?"

Su Yuchen remained silent, staring at the plate of food. Inexplicably, amidst the stacked rice grains, he saw a big 'danger' looming.

'Senior Tia, can't you see Xia Yushuang's expression at all?'

He looked up at Kristia, meeting her eyes behind her glasses… uh, perhaps she really couldn't see it.

Indeed, Kristia couldn't see Xia Yushuang's expression. Firstly, as a beautiful woman herself, she subconsciously avoided looking too much, fearing that it might make her seem inferior.

Of course, the more crucial reason was that she had officially designated Su Yuchen, who now confirmed to not have found her ID card, as her boyfriend (blood bank). Her mind was filled with thoughts of how to train this virgin junior into an obedient little puppy.

The allure of blood was far greater to her than the attraction of a beauty—if she hadn't encountered the very fragrant Su Yuchen last night, she might have focused her attention on someone like Xia Yushuang, the ice beauty.

"Why stare blankly at me? Eat up." Kristia propped her chin with her left hand. "It won't taste good when it gets cold."

"Senior Tia, you should eat too."

Xia Yushuang's gaze returned to Su Yuchen's face. He called her by name too?

Just as she attented a single class, their relationship had reached a point where they could address each other by name?

What was happening?

Then… she noticed Su Yuchen's cheeks gradually reddening, his breathing becoming rapid, displaying an extremely uneasy and shy appearance.

???

Subconsciously, she leaned back and glanced under the table again.

Tia's feet were still well-behaved—wearing sneakers that needed tying, not easy to take off and put on.

"Junior Xia, look at how embarrassed Junior Yuchen is because you sat down," Kristia glanced at Xia Yushuang with a smile. "His expression is so cute, isn't it?"

Cute my foot!

He was completely different from the Su Yuchen she had in mind. How could she find his current expression cute?

"No," Xia Yushuang sat up straight. "It's just that Senior Tia seems very caring toward this freshman."

"Because he's cute," Kristia adjusted her glasses and looked at Su Yuchen. "When we first met, he bumped into me forcefully and wanted to run away. I thought he had a tough character, but it turns out, he's actually a cutie who blushes when talking to girls. Don't you find this contrast endearing?"

Endearing?

Xia Yushuang didn't respond, lowering her head to eat. Everything he was doing now was just an act… Wait.

Why was he pretending in front of Tia Yufei?

She turned to glance at the 24-year-old Tia Yufei, with her golden hair, beautiful features, dressed simply but with a great figure.

She had a similar figure… but Su Yuchen never blushed in front of her!

So was it about appearances?

Did he like Western cuisine?

"Tsk."

Kristia glanced at Xia Yushuang, who was clicking her tongue. Was that a look of disdain toward me?

"Junior Xia, you're so pretty. You must have a lot of people pursuing you, right?" Kristia asked with a smile. "What type of guys do you like?"

"I don't like cute ones," Xia Yushuang replied expressionlessly. "They don't make me feel secure."

"Oh, really…" Kristia crossed her legs. "I actually find cute and introverted guys quite appealing, right, Junior Yuchen?"

"Huh? Oh… oh…" Su Yuchen seemed pleasantly surprised by what he thought was her indication.

Kristia happily chuckled. "Great reaction, Junior Brother~"

Xia Yushuang glanced at him. "Someone like this is easily bullied among guys."

"It's okay," Kristia patted Su Yuchen's head. "If anyone bullies you, you tell big sister, I'll stand up for you. Just stay cute and obedient."

This woman!

What exactly about him attracts you??

"I… I'm quite strong in fights," Su Yuchen mumbled.

"Oh, really?" Kristia feigned surprise. "Didn't expect you to be so tough, little junior~ That's amazing!"

As she spoke, she even clapped her hands.

This woman is something else.

Both Su Yuchen and Xia Yushuang thought simultaneously.

"Senior Tia, your taste doesn't align with your past role as the vice president of the student union," Xia Yushuang said expressionlessly.

"Work and feelings are of course not comparable," Kristia calmly replied. "I'm efficient when it comes to studying and work, but deep down, I'm a bit childish. I really like things like roadside puppies; I can't help wanting to pinch them."

Su Yuchen kept his head down. This woman was definitely taking revenge on him for comparing her to a little female dog earlier!

But… he let out a sigh of relief.

The moment Xia Yushuang appeared, he was worried about her exposing his lie about the lost ID, but thankfully…

Xia Yushuang didn't mention him.

The advantage is still mine.
