Chapter 2 : Damn, She Really Got Me
2: Damn, She Really Got Me
On Suzhou's night, as darkness fell, it became even livelier than daytime.
Neon lights on both sides of the road illuminated the streets like daylight. The empty spaces from daytime were now filled with groups of spontaneous elderly folks dancing square dances, and small unauthorized stalls were set up outside shopping centers with vendors calling out their wares in a bustling atmosphere.
Yet amidst all these lively and jubilant scenes, hearing the girl's soft call from behind, Su Mo felt inexplicably cold in his heart.
Instinctively turning back, he saw a girl wearing a white T-shirt and hot pants, revealing a pair of legs radiating invincible youthful vitality, looking at him with a charming smile.
The girl had exquisite features and was at the most beautiful age of her life, with jade-like skin and peach cheeks. She could truly be described by that verse: "Her jade body fills the spring breeze road with fragrance, a beauty whose autumn eyes show gentle pity." Every frown and smile radiated an aura that stimulated male hormones.
The girl was named Lin Muyao, a junior in the same media program as Su Mo. Due to her outstanding appearance and mastery of various dances, she was also a million-follower UP host on Bilibili and had been crowned campus belle by students on Su University's forum.
Being called campus belle among thousands of university students at Su University spoke volumes about Lin Muyao's beauty and excellence.
Surely any boy would instinctively feel excited and delighted to be approached by such a beautiful girl.
However, facing such a beautiful person, Su Mo's fair eyebrows currently furrowed into a small川character.
The reason for his frowning?
Su Mo's situation was both complex and simple.
In one sentence: this gorgeous beauty in front of him—she came with ill intentions!!!
A month ago, while resting in his dorm, Su Mo accidentally heard his roommates mention the word "pervert" during their conversation, which immediately activated a C-level mission in the challenge system: Lucky Pervert.
[Lucky Pervert: You are favored by the Goddess of Luck. Today there will be strange updrafts. Please host stare at upskirt panties for three seconds to complete the mission.]
Faced with this simple "force majeure" mission that wouldn't get him arrested by the police, Su Mo, with his strong survival instinct, naturally accepted it.
The result was that Su Mo coincidentally encountered Lin Muyao downstairs from his dorm after finishing a day of work. Then, on a sunny day with no sewers on the "flat" road surface, a sudden gust of wind defied gravity and lifted the girl's skirt, revealing the cute lace-trimmed pure white panties underneath, completing the mission.
However, after that incident, Su Mo was naturally resented by Lin Muyao.
As a junior media student, unlike other majors, she was already half-stepping into the professional world.
Due to her outstanding appearance, Lin Muyao from the performance department successfully auditioned upon entering the industry and joined a third-tier small production crew to play the female lead in an urban drama.
Because third-tier productions had small investments and mostly filmed teen-rated short dramas, the performance requirements weren't too strict in daily work, so Lin Muyao's work as campus belle was initially quite stable.
But after a second-tier trashy male celebrity joined the crew and began pursuing her in an oily manner, Lin Muyao's life became greatly troubled.
Direct rejection could easily lead to rumors of "not respecting seniors," which could be fatal for an actress.
So, after much thought, Lin Muyao came up with a "suitable" way to decline—she already had a boyfriend.
As for the boyfriend candidate, after careful consideration, it fell on Su Mo, who had once offended her.
Why choose Su Mo instead of those boys in the academy who liked her or her fans?
Lin Muyao had thought this through carefully.
First, Su Mo was handsome with fair skin, matching her aesthetic preferences.
Second, and most crucially, Su Mo looked very weak. Lin Muyao felt that even she, as a girl, could easily subdue him with one hand.
This way, safety factors were satisfied, and she could use the "boyfriend" identity to get revenge on Su Mo—killing three birds with one stone.
Lin Muyao's calculations were perfect. She originally thought that after explaining the situation, he would excitedly agree, but in reality, she had been rejected by Su Mo several times.
Now, looking at Su Mo who was once again preparing to refuse, instead of anger, Lin Muyao's youthful, beautiful face showed a victor's smile.
The next second, before Su Mo could skillfully refuse as usual, she first raised her hand and took out a printed booklet from her exquisite LV bag.
Looking at the booklet in the girl's hand, Su Mo had an ominous premonition. Because on the booklet's cover, there was clearly a line of text—KFC Part-time Employee Handbook.
Lin Muyao saw that Su Mo wanted to speak but hesitated, and after struggling briefly, didn't refuse as usual but instead looked at her with a complex expression.
She was quite pleased with this, and her fair, pretty face unconsciously curved her tempting cherry lips upward. In the next moment, she aggressively stepped forward to get closer to Su Mo while opening a page of the employee handbook.
"McNugget Hero, oh no, Junior Su Mo, according to the employee handbook, privately selling KFC items against regulations requires punishment. The penalty amount is how many times... let me see~~~ ones, tens, hundreds, so it's one hundred times! As far as I know, Junior Su Mo violated regulations and sold 32 servings of original chicken today. How much money is that? Let me help you calculate!"
As Lin Muyao spoke, her unique orchid fragrance also entered Su Mo's nostrils.
Honestly, it smelled quite nice. However, Su Mo currently had no mood to enjoy it and instead felt like facing a great enemy.
Being at the same Su University, Su Mo, who had been busy doing missions for survival, didn't have the time and energy to pay attention to girls. But he had heard his three roommates discuss Lin Muyao's exploits: XX writing love letters and being rejected, XX confessing and crying in failure, XX and XX fighting over Senior Muyao, and so on...
Thinking of all those incidents, Su Mo felt somewhat troubled.
Being entangled by Senior Muyao and becoming a "fake boyfriend" offered no benefits and would also subject him to fire from other male compatriots—it seemed too disadvantageous no matter how he thought about it.
However, regarding the current 100-fold compensation claim for KFC, the amount was too large, and since he had been doing challenge missions daily, his wallet only contained 2000 yuan, which seemed insufficient for compensation.
So this appeared to be a single-choice question?
Watching Su Mo's fair forehead gradually furrow into a small川character, even unconsciously biting his lip with his teeth in an aggrieved expression.
Seeing this, Lin Muyao's bright eyes flashed with strange light. After all, she had pursued Su Mo dozens of times over the past month, and now she finally got her wish!
Although the process wasn't glorious, there was a saying: forced melons aren't sweet, but they're truly thirst-quenching. And this feeling of successfully forcing a civilian man, while having a certain wicked pleasure, honestly felt quite good!
Her lips curved slightly upward, and Lin Muyao, in a comfortable mood, revealed a smile as stunning as a blooming rose, causing passersby to turn and stare.
After waiting three seconds and seeing Su Mo's peach blossom eyes gradually stop wavering, knowing the timing was ripe, Lin Muyao silently put the booklet back in her shoulder bag, then extended a pair of tender white hands to gently smooth Su Mo's furrowed brow.
Lin Muyao's movements were very gentle, like polishing a treasure, and while smoothing, she didn't forget to suggest:
"My little boyfriend, you worked hard today, it must have been tiring~"
To passing pedestrians, this looked like a virtuous wife.
But to Su Mo, this sentence was a complete threat, similar to: You wouldn't want to be reported by me for not being my boyfriend, would you!
Looking at the gorgeous senior in a superior, victorious posture, Su Mo felt a bit angry, but remembering those cute panties, he could only comfort himself internally that this might be what the ancestors meant by "those who don't court death won't die."
This was all retribution!!!
Realizing the situation was set with no possibility of reversal, Su Mo began thinking calmly.
Thinking of the S-level mission he'd just accepted, he might as well stop struggling. After all, completing the "crossdressing" challenge mission in the familiar male dorm would have too low a probability and be too "dangerous." Now, with the "girlfriend" excuse, he could legitimately move out!
However, although Su Mo had figured this out, thinking about his future "fake boyfriend" identity and possibly having to act with Senior Lin Muyao, as a media student, Su Mo made one final resistance.
"Senior Muyao, I can be your 'fake boyfriend,' but we're both media students, and you know acting requires payment! 800 per month, no, 1000!"
Hearing Su Mo's proposal, Lin Muyao, who had always been pursued by others, was incredulous for a moment.
She never expected that one day, she would have to pay for dating.
But quickly, remembering this "little boyfriend" was threatened into compliance, she felt relieved.
The next second, she took out her latest iPhone, and after her delicate fingers operated for a while, Su Mo's phone rang with a notification.
"Alipay received 6000 yuan!"
Then, under Su Mo's gaze, Lin Muyao casually tossed her shoulder-length hair and spoke dashingly:
"Being my boyfriend, 1000 per month is too little and doesn't match my status. I'll give you 3000 per month, starting with a two-month trial period. Also, tomorrow morning at 8 o'clock, I'll send you the location to pick me up at my house, my little boyfriend!"
After saying this, Lin Muyao pinched the stunned Su Mo's cheeks, then her two legs, glowing under the streetlights, strode toward a BMW parked nearby.
This series of moves was smooth as silk, extremely slick and arrogant.
When Su Mo came to his senses, he could only see the BMW's taillights disappearing at the end of the road!
Looking at the vanishing vehicle, Su Mo's heart was filled with mixed emotions—his fake girlfriend seemed to be a rich woman.
But if you have a car, why didn't you drive me back to school?
Damn, she really got me this time!!!
