I chuckled awkwardly and scratched my head.
"It's not that I'm isolated, it's just that I don't like going out."
Chen Di sighed, "So it's definitely not some childhood sweetheart who fell from the sky—this is indeed the first time I've met her."
"Then I can only say that he is indeed a handsome guy. Maybe he fell in love at first sight after being seen on the street."
As soon as I said that, the phone screen lit up.
"An Yu?"
"Why did you think of her first? — It's that alternate account of the senior student, the one who kept saying she wanted to do research."
"Oh, the one you mentioned, the one who kept asking you about writing material. So she's your senior?"
"...I think so? Speaking of which, I actually know a big secret. Unfortunately, I can't reveal it to protect the privacy of the person involved."
I finally confirmed after the summer vacation that my senior was Ping Qiuyue, the author of "Tonight".
"Then isn't what Qiu Luxi told you a secret?"
Chen Di said with a hint of helplessness.
"She asked me to help build a good relationship, but she didn't ask me to keep the person in question confidential."
I replied to the message as if it were the most natural thing in the world.
"If it were you, do you think it would be easier for me to keep it from you two and create coincidences to force the timing, or to tell you and then have you cooperate with the timing?"
"With this kind of behavior and thinking, be careful you don't get stabbed to death by a girl one day!"
"Wow, that's wicked! Well, the main thing is I think you probably feel the same way. Rather than hiding it from you and making things worse, it's better to be honest with you and cooperate. They just want to build a good relationship, and I think you feel more comfortable this way, right?"
“...That’s hard to refute,” Chen Di said with a smile.
"Let me guess there's another reason—because to you, I'm a friend, while Qiu Luxi is just a guest?"
"Don't say anything mushy."
I rejected this handsome guy's attempts at manipulation.
Chen Di smiled gently, "Okay, okay, I understand. If there's anything you want me to do, I'll help—but why did you make this kind of deal with Qiu Luxi? Can you tell me?"
"..."
I thought for a moment, then flipped through my phone screen and showed him a particular interface.
"...I see. Now I know why you were working."
Chen Di nodded. "Do you need my help with this?"
"I don't need it for now, but it's hard to say in the end." I laughed and punched him on the shoulder. "Really, you're always asking 'Do you need help? Do you need help?' You're like a 'Do-It-All's-Know-It-All's-on. This is my way of repaying a favor and meddling in other people's business, I can't trouble you too much, can I?"
"Don't say anything mushy."
You dare use the magic I invented against me?! Potter!!
"Aren't we friends?" Chen Di blinked.
Someone, come quick and stop this handsome guy's irresistible charm!!
"You guys seem to have a really interesting chat."
"Help! Someone push her for me..."
Upon hearing the familiar, slightly clipped sound, my instinctive urge was to sneer.
But upon seeing who it was, he was instantly speechless.
It wasn't because the person sitting in the wheelchair, but because the person pushing it.
Hello, brothers.
Ling Chuqing seemed a little embarrassed. Although she greeted us, she kept her head down and did not make eye contact with us.
"Why can unauthorized personnel freely enter and exit the club?"
I couldn't help but speak up.
Ling Qingxue was slightly taken aback, while Ling Chuqing's face turned pale, and she looked somewhat at a loss.
"Oh, the unrelated person I was referring to was the one in the wheelchair—welcome to give us a preview tour of the school and clubs, junior Ling Chuqing~"
Ling Chuqing's expression instantly changed from worry to joy, as if the sun had broken through the rain and dark clouds.
"Isn't this a great way to please girls?" Chen Di said with a smile, leaning close to my ear.
“My main purpose was to satirize the one in the wheelchair,” I replied in a low voice, making sure the volume reached Ling Qingxue’s ears.
"...Actually, yesterday, I was pushed outside. And because no one helped me, it took me a long time to get back."
Ling Qingxue seemed not to hear her and explained with a smile.
"The school felt this was inappropriate, so they specifically agreed that I could ask my family to help me move around after school."
"Was this all part of your plan?" I'm speechless about this girl.
"It was just a coincidence."
Ling Qingxue said with a smile, "There's nothing I can do, they're a patient, so I can only trouble you, sister."
"Actually, my sister saw the progress of the literary society's school newspaper yesterday and asked me to come and help..."
Ling Chuqing seemed to be preparing to say a few words to defend her sister.
I nodded, walked over to them, and pulled Ling Chuqing over.
"Huh?!...Um..."
With a blush on her face, Ling Chuqing didn't struggle. She lowered her head and obediently let me hold her hand, and that's how I pulled her over.
"Xiao Qing, we accept it, thank you for your help~"
I made Ling Chuqing sit next to the class monitor, and then smiled at Ling Qingxue—and pushed her out.
"Eh?!"
"elder sister?!"
Snapped.
I closed the door, walked over to Ling Chuqing who was still in shock, and poked her head.
"You're being used as a tool, you idiot."
"..." Ling Chuqing obediently let me poke her, and then said somewhat weakly.
"But my sister has finally learned to care about others—I don't want to refuse her."
"You have to prioritize your own needs, you know? Are you really going to be her maid every day? You can be a saint if you want, but at least take care of yourself first."
Ling Chuqing lowered her head, clearly looking embarrassed, but upon hearing the last part, she still smiled faintly and sweetly.
"Okay, I got it. I'll do whatever you say. Thank you, Brother Ning Ruoyu~"
That voice, filled with trust and a touch of coquetry, instantly snapped me out of my daze.
Damn it, it's all Ling Qingxue's fault for making me a bit restless; I subconsciously meddled in other people's business!
"Actually, he's a very nice person, Brother Ning Ruoyu~" Chen Di said to me with a smile, deliberately imitating Ling Chuqing's tone.
I quickly and slightly distanced myself from Ling Chuqing.
Outside, Ling Qingxue's voice rang out unhurriedly.
"Has the time gone by that guy inside, to be toying with my sister's heartstrings?"
"If it's over, why don't you open the door and let me in? I have a great tip on how to 'build good relationships'~"
"........."
How could that be?! I wasn't so careless as to not notice someone eavesdropping at the door!
I looked at Ling Chuqing.
"How long have you been standing at the door?"
"My sister texted me to go directly to the door. She stayed at the door for a few minutes, I don't know."
Damn it, if there was a wheelchair eavesdropping at the door, I really hadn't been on guard against such an outrageous situation.
[Next chapter preview: "Have you ever seen a game planner who looks like they've actually played their own game?"]
"I was practically torn apart by five horses!"
I wish I could skin her alive.
"Are you sure it's okay not to bring your sister? I see there are quite a few kids here."
For some reason, Chen Di smiled but didn't directly answer my question.
Chapter 61: This is the plan you came up with?!
"So, your outrageous plan is to organize club members to participate in amusement park activities?"
On the other end of the phone, Ling Qingxue's voice carried a hint of mockery.
"That's a newly opened theme park. Otherwise, what? Honey, do you have any convenient and easy-to-use plans?"
...What I've learned is all about achieving maximum desire and attraction in the shortest amount of time, which is really not very respectable.
For example, there was the "fake hero saves the beauty" tactic used by Ge Lanlan's childhood sweetheart. Or there's the tactic of isolating someone and then getting closer.
While white-collar workers or gamers might be better at subtly building a normal relationship with the special group of high school students, they certainly don't have as much experience as her.
"Then can you tell me why, even though the main characters are Chen Di and Qiu Luxi, I still have to do some dressing up?"
Without my glasses on, and with a serious expression of my outfit, I asked in an annoyed tone.
"Oh dear, although they're the main characters, Qiu Luxi is a public figure after all, isn't she? They need to dress modestly, but you naturally have to bear the attention~"
That's reasonable.
"...Then I have to ask one last small question."
I had a dark expression on my face.
"What do you mean you can't come because your travel is inconvenient? You, the game planner, don't you even play the game yourself?"
"Have you ever seen a game planner who looks like they've actually played their own game?"
Ling Qingxue laughed on the other end of the phone, "Would I, in a wheelchair, really spoil your fun? Just think of Ling Chuqing as my proxy. I'm busy with the school newspaper layout, so I'll hang up now."
"Oh, one last thing, darling, although you're not exactly warm or cold to me, you won't make things difficult for Ling Chuqing, will you? She's been really looking forward to today~"
"How could you have such a nerve..."
“…Beep, beep, beep.”
The call was hung up.
I wish I could skin her alive.
"Um, Brother Ning Ruoyu. I didn't expect my sister to not come today. Here are the amusement park tickets she gave me... I'm sorry."
Seeing my somewhat unfriendly expression, Ling Chuqing guiltily handed over the tickets and then lowered her head to apologize.
"elder brother……"
Ning Ruoxin glanced at me, then hesitated, as if she wanted to say something but couldn't.
I sighed.
"Well, it's okay. Ling Qingxue bought the tickets anyway, and it seems that group tickets require a minimum of seven people. Don't feel too guilty, just come with us."
"Is it okay?" Ling Chuqing's eyes widened slightly.
"Okay, it's alright. Let's go meet up with Chen Di and the others."
……
"Ah, I completely understand everything now."
Chen Di looked at me and nodded.
"Then can you explain why you were holding two middle school girls on your left and right sides when you came out just now?"
