Is it hard to chase the school beauty?It doesn't matter, she still has roommates

"Teacher Su, calm down. I have no improper thoughts about you."

"Who knows if you're just pretending to be a gentleman!"

Su Yue stared at him warily.

"You were just staring at Ruoxi's arm!"

Su Yue stared at her phone screen, her finger hovering over the "Remove Group Member" option for a full three seconds before finally tapping it hard.

Qin Luo's profile picture disappeared from the class WeChat group instantly. She breathed a sigh of relief, as if she had accomplished a major mission.

"I'll teach you to ignore my messages again!"

She gritted her teeth at the air. This student named Qin Luo had only been a counselor for less than two weeks, and he dared to ignore her group chat three times in a row, which was practically a challenge to her authority.

My phone suddenly vibrated, and a private message popped up.

【Teacher Su, did you kick me out of the group?】The sender was Qin Luo.

Su Yue sneered and quickly typed.

[Because you never check group notifications, you've missed three classes already. Come to my office tomorrow.]

The moment the message was sent, a red exclamation mark appeared.
"The message has been sent, but it was rejected by the recipient."

"He actually blocked me?!"

Su Yue's eyes widened, and her fingers trembled uncontrollably.

She had always been an excellent student since childhood; she had never suffered such humiliation. Tears welled up in her eyes uncontrollably, and she slammed her phone onto the sofa.

"asshole!"

Three months later, Su Yue finally met the legendary problem student.

When she pushed open the office door and saw a tall figure with his back to her, flipping through the documents on the desk, she almost didn't recognize that it was Qin Luo.

"Who gave you permission to touch my things?"

she asked sharply.

The man turned around, revealing a sharply defined face with a faint smile on his lips.

"Teacher Su, I've heard so much about you."

Su Yue was stunned.

The Qin Luo in the photo clearly looks like a bookish nerd with black-rimmed glasses, but the person in front of you looks like a model who just stepped out of a fashion magazine. Neat short hair, deep eyes, even that ordinary white shirt looks like a high-end custom-made shirt on him.

"How can you prove you are Qin Luo?"

She asked warily.

The boy took out his student ID from his pocket and slammed it on the table.

"Replacement guaranteed."

Su Yue carefully compared the photo with the real person. Although their temperaments were completely different, their facial features did match.

She put on a stern face.

"You haven't attended a single class in the three months since the start of the semester. Do you know the consequences?"

Qin Luo shrugged.

"I'm doing something more important."

What could be more important than studying?

"for example."

He suddenly leaned closer, and Su Yue smelled a faint tobacco scent.

"Find the pervert who steals women's underwear."

Su Yue suddenly took a step back.

"What nonsense! There are no clothes thieves at school!"

Qin Luo narrowed his eyes.

"It seems that Teacher Su is completely unaware of the students' living conditions. In the past two months, more than a dozen pieces of underwear have gone missing from the girls' dormitory, but the school has simply suppressed the reports."

Su Yue's heart skipped a beat.

She had indeed vaguely heard similar rumors, but always thought it was just a prank among students.

"Even so, it's not your place as a student to investigate on your own!"

She tried to remain calm.

"Now, please explain why you have been absent from class for three months."

Qin Luo suddenly reached out and grabbed her wrist.

"Because I was tracking a suspect."

"open!"

Su Yue struggled violently, and with her other hand grabbed the folder on the table and threw it at him.

Qin Luo easily dodged, but Su Yue took the opportunity to kick his knee.

"hiss"

Qin Luo winced in pain and released his grip, his eyes filled with surprise.

"I didn't expect Teacher Su to know self-defense techniques."

"There are many unexpected things!"

Su Yue was panting, her heart pounding.

"Get out of here right now!"

Qin Luo suddenly laughed.

"I'm afraid that won't work. My dormitory has been temporarily requisitioned as an isolation area, and the school administration office said I can stay at my counselor's house temporarily."

"what?!"

Su Yue's voice rose eight octaves.

"Who gave their consent?"

"Director Li."

Qin Luo waved the approval email on his phone.

He said your home is right across from the school, which is very convenient.

Su Yue was so angry that she trembled all over.

That old fox, Director Li, knew perfectly well that she lived alone, yet he still arranged for a male student to stay at her house.
"I disagree!"

She said it with absolute certainty.

"Then you'll have to explain to the principal."

Qin Luo slowly straightened his wrinkled shirt.

"After all, this is for the purpose of epidemic prevention and control."

At nine o'clock in the evening, Su Yue stood in her living room, watching Qin Luo swagger into the guest room, wishing she could burn two holes in his back with her eyes.

Where is the bathroom?

Qin Luo asked.

"Find it yourself!"

Su Yue replied irritably and turned to go into the master bedroom.

The door slammed shut.

She slid down to the floor with her back against the door and frantically sent messages to her best friend on her phone.

Help! That jerk of a student wants to stay at my house!!!

My best friend replied instantly.

[Is that the one who blocked you? Holy crap, what's going on?]

Su Yue quickly typed out the whole story, and then added three crying emojis at the end.

"Why don't you come stay at my place?" my best friend suggested.

"No, I have class at seven tomorrow morning," Su Yue replied in despair.

She strained her ears to listen to what was happening outside.

The sound of water stopped, footsteps passed by her door, and then the sound of the guest room door closing.

Su Yue breathed a sigh of relief and quietly opened the door a crack to peek out. The living room light was still on, but no one was there.

She tiptoed to the kitchen, intending to pour herself a glass of water to calm her nerves.

As soon as I turned the corner, I bumped into a wall of people.

"what!"

She screamed and almost knocked over her water glass.

Qin Luo looked down at her.

"Teacher Su, why aren't you asleep yet?"

"none of your business!"

Su Yue took two steps back.

What are you doing standing here?

"Drink water."

Qin Luo shook the glass in his hand and suddenly lowered his voice.

"Don't worry, I'm not interested in old women."

"Who are you calling an old woman?"

Su Yue got angry.

"I'm only 26 years old!"

Qin Luo raised an eyebrow.

"She's five years older than me, what else could she be but an old woman?"

Su Yue was so angry she couldn't speak. She snatched the water glass and turned to leave.

Back in her bedroom, she locked the door and pushed the dressing table in front of it to block the doorway, only then feeling slightly relieved.

Lying in bed, she tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.

I opened my stock trading app on my phone and saw that the US stock I had heavily invested in had fallen by 3%, and my heart clenched.

"Damn stock commentators."

she muttered.

Six months ago, she listened to the recommendation of a well-known analyst and invested almost all her savings. As a result, the stock price plummeted and she has now lost nearly 40%.

Her finger hovered over the "sell" button, and she hesitated.

Selling at a loss is too painful, but continuing to hold on risks losing everything.

"If I were you, I wouldn't sell it now."

A deep voice suddenly sounded behind her, startling Su Yue so much that she dropped her phone on the bed.

She turned around abruptly and saw Qin Luo standing by her bedside, a cigarette dangling from his mouth.

"How did you get in!"

She screamed and grabbed a pillow, throwing it at him.

"I definitely locked the door!"

Qin Luo easily caught the pillow.

"These old-fashioned locks can be picked with a credit card."

He exhaled a smoke ring.

"But I just came to get the charger; I left it here during the day." Su Yue then noticed that there was indeed a black charging head on the bedside table.

She snatched the cigarette and threw it into the trash can.

"No smoking in my house!"

"Then I'll go to the balcony."

Qin Luo turned to leave, then turned back to add something.

"By the way, that stock will rebound within half an hour. You'll regret selling it now."

"What do you know about stocks!"

Su Yue scoffed.

"A student who doesn't even attend class dares to give me pointers?"

Qin Luo shrugged.

"Believe it or not."

After he left, Su Yue picked up her phone again and stared at the stock called "NT Technology".

The candlestick chart shows a continuous downward trend with no signs of a rebound.

"Playing tricks and deception"

She muttered to herself, and without hesitation, clicked "sell".

When the confirmation message popped up, she felt a sense of relief.

When Su Yue came out of the shower, she found that the living room lights were off, and only a faint red light was flickering on the balcony.

She quietly walked over and saw Qin Luo leaning against the railing, making a phone call.

"A blind spot in the surveillance cameras. Yes, it's behind the laundry room."

His voice was low.

"I will tomorrow... um."

Noticing the movement behind him, Qin Luo quickly hung up the phone and turned around.

“It’s impolite to eavesdrop on other people’s phone calls, Ms. Su.”

Su Yue stood with her arms crossed.

"What leads do you have about the clothes-stealing maniac you mentioned earlier?"

Qin Luo flicked away the cigarette ash.

"Didn't the police already check the surveillance footage?"

"how do you know?"

Su Yue asked in surprise.

"Guess."

Qin Luo stubbed out his cigarette.

"In these kinds of cases, we usually start by checking the surveillance footage."

Su Yue was skeptical.

"The police did come, but said they didn't find any suspicious people."

"Because they checked the wrong time."

Qin Luo walked past her.

“There is a ten-minute blind spot in the laundry room’s surveillance cameras between three and four in the morning.”

"How do you even know this?"

Su Yue followed behind him, pressing him for answers.

Qin Luo turned around and revealed a meaningful smile.

"Because I know this school better than the police."

Watching him walk into the guest room and close the door, Su Yue stood there, feeling a strange chill.

There were too many mysteries surrounding this student, which made her both curious and afraid.

Back in her bedroom, she decided to stop thinking about it and prepared to turn off her phone and go to sleep.

Just as my finger was about to press the power button, a notification popped up from the stock trading software.
NT Technology surges 15%!

Su Yue's eyes widened, and she hurriedly clicked to view the details.

The candlestick chart, which had been trending downwards, suddenly surged vertically less than twenty minutes after she sold, with a dramatic increase in trading volume, and has now surpassed her original purchase price.

"This is impossible."

She muttered to herself, her fingers trembling as she refreshed the page.

The stock price continued to climb slowly, eventually stopping at 17% above her selling price.

Qin Luo's words echoed in her mind.

"It will rebound within half an hour; you'll regret selling now."

"what!"

Su Yue angrily pounded her pillow, wishing she could turn back time.

If she had persisted for another twenty minutes, she could have not only recouped her investment but also made a small profit!
"What did I say?"

Qin Luo's voice came from the doorway again, this time with a hint of teasing.

Su Yue looked up abruptly, her eyes filled with shock and regret.

"How did you know?"

Qin Luo walked in and casually sat down in her computer chair.

"I trade US stocks and have analyzed this stock. It has an important announcement today, and the market has overreacted."

"You...you really understand stocks?"

Su Yue's voice was full of doubt, but it was no longer as forceful as before.

Qin Luo didn't answer directly, but pointed to the computer.

"Want to play another round? I can recommend a stock to you."

Su Yue looked at him warily.

"What are the conditions?"

"Smart question."

Qin Luo smiled.

"If I help you make money, all our past grievances will be wiped clean. The WeChat group issue, and the awkwardness of staying overnight tonight."

Su Yue pondered for a moment.

Indeed, she didn't suffer any loss.

If Qin Luo can really help her recover her losses
"make a deal."

Qin Luo stood up, walked to the computer, and sat down.

His fingers flew across the keyboard, bringing up charts for several stocks.

Standing behind him, Su Yue smelled the faint scent of his shower gel and felt inexplicably at ease.

"This one."

Qin Luo eventually pointed to a piece of code on the screen.

"Estée Lauder. It will rise soon, and a 10% return in the short term is not a problem."

Su Yue frowned.

"This stock is very risky. Its recent earnings report fell short of expectations, and analysts are downgrading its rating."

That's why there was a rebound.

Qin Luo said confidently.

"The market has overreacted to the negative news."

Su Yue bit her lip.

"I'll buy half to try first."

She operated the account and used 40,000 yuan to buy.

After the transaction was completed, the two stared silently at the screen.

Time passed slowly, and the stock price fluctuated slightly without any obvious signs of rising.

"Are you sure?"

Su Yue couldn't help but ask.

"Twenty minutes have passed."

Qin Luo glanced at his watch.

"Be patient."

Just as the clock struck 2:40 a.m., a large number of buy orders suddenly appeared on the screen, and the stock price began to climb steadily.

"here we go."

Qin Luo said softly.

Su Yue held her breath, watching the numbers jump around.

One dot, two dots, four dots.
"My God!"

She couldn't help but exclaim.

"It really went up!"

She quickly did the mental calculations.

"Four points, at the exchange rate, is equivalent to my monthly salary!"

Qin Luo simply smiled, his eyes still fixed on the screen.

As the stock price continued to climb, breaking through eight points, Su Yue could no longer sit still and paced back and forth in the room.

"Ten points!"

She suddenly shouted, turning to look at Qin Luo with excitement in her eyes.

"You're amazing!"

Driven by her overwhelming emotions, Su Yue did something she never expected: she rushed forward and hugged Qin Luo tightly.

"Thank you!"

She whispered in his ear, then realized her lapse in composure, quickly released his hand, and her cheeks burned.

Qin Luo gently hugged her back, then stepped back, a faint smile on his lips.

"That's even the score."

Su Yue awkwardly straightened her pajamas, not daring to look him in the eye.

"What should we do about the stocks now?"

"Sell it."

Qin Luo said decisively.

"This is just a rebound after the crash, and it won't last long."

This time, Su Yue carried out the operation without hesitation.

Shortly after the sale, the stock price did indeed begin to pull back, eventually stabilizing at around seven percent.

"Absolutely amazing!"

Su Yue muttered to herself, looking at the extra four thousand US dollars in her account. (End of Chapter)
