“Ah!”
A scream pierced the air.
An Shengnan was abruptly awakened by a splash of cold water, shrieking as she jolted upright.
“Who! Who poured cold water on me!”
Beside her, Jiang Siyan was also roused by the commotion.
In his groggy state, he met Shi Yu’s indifferent gaze and instantly sobered up from his drunkenness.
“Sorry, Yu-ge,” Jiang Siyan immediately grabbed An Shengnan from the bed and pulled her up. “I drank too much and thought this was my bed…”
Hearing Jiang Siyan apologize, An Shengnan widened her eyes in disbelief.
In all the years she had known Jiang Siyan, she had never seen him act so cautiously around anyone.
She complained, “So what if I slept in your bed? Was it really necessary to splash cold water on me? How can a grown man be so petty with a young girl like me?”
“Necessary.”
In the darkness, Fu Shiyu’s voice was icy. “I find it dirty.”
An Shengnan felt as if struck by lightning.
Ruan Li was in the middle of taking a shower when a flood of Bullet Comments suddenly floated before her eyes.
She was startled, thinking these people could see her.
Until she read the text on them.
【Shi Yu is too much!】
【So what if Little Sister Treasure slept in his bed for a bit? Was it really necessary to splash cold water on her? If he finds it dirty, he sure seemed to enjoy biting and licking the Female Supporting Character earlier!】
【What a mean Male Lead! No wonder he’s poor! Hope he and the Gold-digging Female Supporting Character stay locked together forever!】
【Hmph! Later, the Male Lead and Little Sister Treasure will try 180 different positions on this mean Male Lead’s bed!】
【Fully support this!】
This…
Based on the Bullet Comments, Ruan Li roughly guessed what had happened.
Staring at the words “biting and licking the Female Supporting Character,” her face flushed bright red, and the images she had deliberately tried to forget resurfaced in her mind.
Stop thinking about it!
…
Early the next morning, Ruan Li arrived at the university library.
She had eight part-time jobs.
These included photo editing, illustration, video editing, online voice acting, and bridal modeling.
As well as dog walking, AI training.
And occasionally, she took on housekeeping services.
If it could earn money, she had tried it.
This weekend, she was originally very busy. But An Shengnan hadn’t earned enough extracurricular credits, which would affect her graduation.
To help his junior, Jiang Siyan had applied to form an activity group and pulled Ruan Li in to make up the numbers.
She had specifically set aside time this weekend to work on the group’s PPT together.
It was agreed they would meet at the library entrance at 11 a.m., but by 11:30, she hadn’t seen a single person.
She called Jiang Siyan.
Jiang Siyan didn’t answer.
On her Nth attempt to call him, Jiang Siyan finally picked up impatiently.
“What is it?”
“Where are you? It’s Saturday, and we agreed to meet at the library to work on the PPT. Where are you?”
“Can’t you just do it yourself?”
“It’s a group assignment. You expect me to complete it alone?”
“A Si,” a female voice chimed in over the phone, “let’s meet Ruan Li at that café in the south of the city. It’s a newly opened trendy spot—I’ve been wanting to check it out anyway.”
“Alright, whatever you say,” Jiang Siyan replied dotingly.
At that moment, Bullet Comments drifted before her eyes.
【The Male Lead is helping Little Sister Treasure pick out bedsheets right now! Little Sister Treasure is a blogger, and this time her theme is ‘One-Day Boyfriend’!】
【So sweet! How is this any different from a newlywed couple!】
【Aww, Little Sister Treasure is still so kind-hearted. She couldn’t bear to stand the Female Supporting Character up, so she suggested meeting at the trendy café!】
【Damn Female Supporting Character! She’s just using the PPT as an excuse to ruin the couple’s date!】
Ruan Li didn’t want to interfere with the Male Lead and Female Lead.
But her foster mother’s illness required money.
To control her, the Ruan family sent her foster mother abroad, cutting off all contact.
The Ruan family said she could only see her foster mother after holding a wedding with Jiang Siyan.
Ruan Li navigated to a café in the southern part of the city—a remote location unreachable by bus or subway.
After taking a taxi there, she found the café was in a trial operation phase, with almost no customers.
She chose a seat by the window and had just sat down when she received a call from her best friend.
“Lili, I need your help urgently!”
“I’m sending you a WeChat contact—help me train this AI!”
“Your persona: a carnivorous girlfriend.”
“You’re strangers who had a one-night stand. At first, he’s an unattainable flower on a high peak, needing you to gradually guide him. Later, he becomes an obsessive, possessive, and gloomy male ghost.”
“Please, sweetie! I’m swamped right now. Once I’m free, I’ll treat you to eighteen handsome models for some fun!”
After the call ended.
A new contact appeared in Ruan Li’s WeChat.
The profile picture had a trendy internet aesthetic—a photo of a pale-skinned, lean-muscled guy holding a DSLR camera, which covered most of his face, with a vast blue sea behind him.
The name was Tsuki.
A Romanized word meaning “moon.”
Her best friend was studying computer science and had started a “virtual boyfriend” studio even before graduating, providing emotional support to single women.
This wasn’t the first time Ruan Li had helped train an AI for her friend.
Last time, Ruan Li trained the “Tsundere Queen X Silent Loyal Dog” persona.
Although it was vastly different from her own personality, facing an AI significantly reduced her sense of embarrassment.
More importantly.
The reward was generous—a total of 40,000 yuan.
She noted the keywords:
One-night stand.
Woman seducing man.
Carnivorous girlfriend.
Initially, an unattainable flower on a high peak.
Later, an obsessive, possessive, and gloomy male ghost.
After careful thought, Ruan Li solemnly typed four words in the “friend request” box:
[Can we still sleep together?]
Library.
Fu Shiyu was working on his thesis.
His WeChat lit up with a message from his roommate.
[Jiang Siyan]: Sorry about last night, Yu. Shengnan and I want to treat you to a meal as an apology. [Location]
It was a Black Pearl restaurant in the city center.
Fu Shiyu’s eyes turned cold as he deleted the chat.
Although he had never met Jiang Siyan’s fiancée, he knew it wasn’t An Shengnan.
What he despised most in life were homewreckers.
Didn’t they feel disgusted interfering in others’ relationships?
Fu Shiyu’s expression darkened, turning icy and severe.
A girl who had intended to approach him felt intimidated and ultimately didn’t dare disturb him.
A moment later, the WeChat icon in the lower right corner of his computer kept flashing.
Fu Shiyu clicked on it, and a friend request popped up.
[Lazy Li Mud]: Can we still sleep together?
