“This… Sister Hailey, I can’t do that. You should find someone else.”
Hearing Hailey’s request, Rudius first widened his eyes in surprise, making himself look shocked, then immediately refused her with a troubled expression.
Of course, Rudius wasn’t genuinely refusing Hailey; he was just trying to fit his persona.
In Hailey’s eyes, he was just a naive student, and his persona aligned perfectly with Route One.
As Rudius spoke, he glanced between the two options and chose Route One.
Seeing Rudius refuse her request, Hailey felt even more at ease with him.
She said softly, “Rudius, we’re just acting—it’s not real. If you don’t help me, Jack will force me to seduce his boss, or even his friends. He’s already hinted at it before; he only changed his target when he saw you appear.”
Hailey’s eyes were slightly red as she spoke of her troubles, looking pitifully at Rudius.
Rudius couldn’t help but feel pity for her, but he couldn’t agree so quickly.
“But I have someone I like,” Rudius said, feigning embarrassment.
His identity as a student undoubtedly made his performance more convincing and caused Hailey, an adult, to lower her guard.
Hailey smiled: “So that’s what Rudius is worried about. I can tell you like that girl very much.”
Faced with such a seemingly ambiguous request from a great beauty like her, Rudius could still think of the girl he liked.
Hailey couldn’t help but feel even more favorably towards him, thinking he was a good man and that her safety would be guaranteed if she cooperated with him.
Rudius nodded shyly: “Yes, I like her very much. If she found out about me and Sister Hailey… she would be angry and might never talk to me again.”
Hailey looked at him with a smile, then suddenly sighed: “Ah, I’m suddenly a little jealous of that girl, for Rudius to like her so much. Unlike me—my husband is a cuckold, always wanting to give me to others to play with.”
As she spoke of her sorrow, a look of worry appeared on Hailey’s face.
Rudius felt awkward: “I’m very willing to help Sister Hailey, but I’m afraid the girl I like will find out about this…”
Hailey looked at his troubled expression, thinking, What a good kid.
Although she didn’t want to put Rudius in a difficult position, she had no other choice.
At this point, she could only get Rudius to agree to cooperate. You are reading on novelping.com, the official source.
Hailey thought for a moment and asked, “Rudius, if the girl you have a crush on doesn’t find out about our cooperation, will you be willing to help me?”
Rudius hesitated, then nodded.
Hailey said seriously: “Then I promise you, I won’t tell anyone about this, and it won’t affect your dating life. I just need to occasionally trouble you to act with me in front of Jack. Can you agree to that?”
Rudius hesitated.
Hailey’s eyes slowly welled up, and she said pitifully, “If Rudius won’t help me, I’ll have no choice but to be given to others by that pervert Jack. Rudius, can you bear to see your sister fall to that point?”
Rudius’s heart trembled; even though he was acting, he couldn’t help but feel sympathy for Hailey’s sorrowful appearance.
He thought it was enough, so he gritted his teeth and said, “Sister Hailey, don’t say anymore—I promise to help you. Brother Chen is too inhuman!”
Hailey’s heart swelled with joy.
Her efforts to play pitiful in front of a student had not been in vain; Rudius had finally agreed to help her.
At the same time, she felt a bit ashamed—to deceive a naive child like this.
She truly was awful, but what could she do?
She had no other choice.
Only by cooperating with Rudius could she trick that pervert Jack.
Hailey looked at Rudius with immense gratitude: “Thank you, Rudius. Don’t worry, I promise this won’t affect you. Also, aren’t you trying to pursue your crush? If there’s anything you don’t know, you can ask me. After all, I’m also a woman, so I might understand girls’ thoughts better.”
“Really? Thank you, Sister Hailey.” Rudius’s face lit up with joy.
Then he asked, “Oh, right, Sister Hailey, what should we do? Since Brother Chen is forcing you to do something like this, he’ll definitely check on you when you go back, right? If he finds out we’re just acting, won’t Sister Hailey be in great danger?”
As he spoke, Rudius showed a worried expression.
Hailey’s heart warmed, and she nodded: “What you said is indeed a problem. We absolutely cannot let Jack discover we’re acting. Let me think…”
Hailey thought for a moment: “Because we just started interacting today, Jack won’t do anything to me yet. After all, getting familiar takes time. But this time, I came with a mission; Jack wants me to… seduce you.”
She looked a little shy, perhaps thinking of something, but still forced herself to ask Rudius, suppressing her embarrassment: “Rudius, do you think if I go back and say I failed to seduce you, Jack will believe it?” Get faster updates on novelping.com.
Rudius blinked, then said uncertainly, “Well, he probably won’t believe it.”
“Why?” Hailey asked.
Rudius’s face flushed, and he said shyly, “Because Sister Hailey is too beautiful and has such a good figure, and I’m just a student in puberty. Brother Chen probably won’t believe in my self-control. He’ll only think that Sister Hailey didn’t try to seduce me.”
Hailey froze for a moment, then her face turned crimson with embarrassment.
However, she remembered her adult status and calmly nodded: “You’re right. Jack might very well think that.”
Rudius looked at her worriedly: “Then, Sister Hailey, what should we do?”
Hailey’s face flushed.
After a moment of hesitation, she whispered, “Rudius, try to leave some marks on me.”
Rudius feigned ignorance: “What kind of marks?”
Hailey grew even more embarrassed, stammering, “Just… make some marks on my neck, like hickeys or something.”
“Hickeys?” Rudius seemed stunned, staring at her blankly for a moment, then suddenly reacted, retreating a few steps in a panic, waving his hands frantically: “No—I’ve never kissed a girl before, and how can I kiss Sister Hailey? Didn’t we agree this was just acting? Why are we kissing now?”
Hailey was so embarrassed she wanted to die, but the person opposite her was just a pure, good student.
He wouldn’t make light advances towards her on his own.
If she didn’t take the initiative, she would only return completely unharmed.
So Hailey’s eyes firmed, and she said seriously: “Rudius, what are you thinking? How is kissing not acting? Haven’t you seen kissing scenes on TV? Besides, if we don’t do this, your sister will be in big trouble when I go back.”
As she spoke, her eyes reddened again, looking as if she was about to cry.
Rudius looked at her blankly, hesitated for a moment, and sighed: “Sister Hailey, don’t be sad. I promise.”
Hailey was secretly pleased, thinking how easy students were to coax.
