New Event: Global Dungeons Daily Releases

“Aiya, are you really angry?”

Lu Xing repented with a heavy heart.

The first failure of his life was that he still didn’t know if Little Goldie’s lip gloss would smudge.

The second failure was that he had mistaken the glitter on his senior sister’s eyelids for dirt.

Damn it!

I am officially irreconcilable with cosmetics in this lifetime!

They got into a taxi.

Lu Xing sat on the left, and the senior sister sat on the right, pouting and ignoring him.

Lu Xing shifted to the right a little. The senior sister also moved to the right.

Lu Xing moved a bit more. The senior sister moved again…

Thump!

A muffled sound.

With nowhere left to go, the senior sister bumped her head against the car window.

Mm, what a brittle head!

The driver was startled and quickly asked.

“What was that thud?”

Lu Xing couldn’t hold it back and laughed out loud.

Hearing the laughter, Liu Qingqing got even angrier!

‘You despicable Lu Xing.’

A woman adorns herself for the one who pleases her. She had dressed up so carefully, yet Lu Xing told her there was something on her face that hadn’t been wiped clean.

Ahhhhh!

Liu Qingqing suffered “social death” on the spot, wishing she could crawl into a hole in the ground.

Actually, she wasn’t angry at Lu Xing’s words; she was angry that she had made a fool of herself in front of him.

How could she be so disappointing?

Liu Qingqing felt a little lost and shrank into the corner, looking pitiful.

Lu Xing glanced at the senior sister, who was puffed up like a pufferfish.

Poke~

Liu Qingqing weakly glared at Lu Xing and slapped his hand away.

Poke~

Liu Qingqing expressed her silence with a sharp “hmph.”

Poke~

Liu Qingqing refused to make eye contact, her heart secretly collapsing.

Pfft.

Lu Xing really laughed out loud this time.

Damn it!

A cute person even looks charming when they’re pouting.

Liu Qingqing glared at him, both shy and annoyed.

‘Still laughing, he’s still laughing!’

“Don’t be angry.”

Lu Xing finally said this after a long silence.

The driver, watching through the rearview mirror, scratched his seat anxiously.

‘No, young man. You should be kissing and hugging her to coax her!’

Liu Qingqing pursed her lips and, with a very serious expression on her cute face, warned him.

“Don’t provoke me. If you provoke me, I’ll do anything.”

“Do anything? Then make me fish-fragrant eggplant for dinner tonight.”

“Oh, okay.”

Liu Qingqing nodded softly and then asked.

“If you wanted to eat fish-fragrant eggplant, why didn’t you tell me earlier? Is there anything else you want to eat?”

Huh?

The driver was dumbfounded.

It can be that easy?

Holy f*ck!

The driver glanced at the calm Lu Xing in the mirror, utterly shocked.

Well, I’ll be. I thought I was on the second level, but this kid is on a whole other level!

Instantly, the driver glanced at his phone holder. On the screen was his wife, who still hadn’t been coaxed.

He suddenly felt a little confused about the “Big and Small Kings.”

(TL: Big and Small Kings (大小王): In Chinese card games (like Fight the Landlord), these are the Jokers, the highest cards. The phrase means “who is in charge” or “who has the power” in a relationship.)

Cough, cough, cough.

Lu Xing cleared his throat lightly, reminding the driver to focus.

The driver instantly snapped back to reality and drove obediently.

‘Alright. I’ll try this ‘coaxing’ method when I get home.’

“Why didn’t you finish?” Liu Qingqing poked the back of Lu Xing’s hand. “What else do you want to eat?”

She was clearly a little excited.

Before, from Monday to Friday, no matter how much she acted coquettishly, Lu Xing would leave her place at exactly four in the afternoon every day.

Although today was Saturday…

Did Lu Xing mean… he was staying over?

When a member of the opposite sex stays over, that means…

Instantly, Liu Qingqing’s thoughts turned her face bright red.

“I haven’t thought of the rest yet. I’ll tell you when we get back,” Lu Xing said leisurely.

Saturday and Sunday were usually reserved for Professor Song, but she wasn’t even in Haicheng right now.

At most, he could just send a few messages to show his concern.

Sigh. He really had sacrificed a lot to coax this girl.

Ding—

A message notification sounded.

Liu Qingqing quickly took out her phone, her expression turning troubled.

“What’s wrong?”

Seeing her wrinkled expression, Lu Xing asked with confusion.

Liu Qingqing felt like she was going to go bald from stress again.

“Today, we have to decide on a theme for the admissions publicity. Each department is fighting over it.”

As the student council president, she was like an old mother. They came to her for everything.

Hearing it was about this, Lu Xing waved his hand.

“Just hold a vote.”

Liu Qingqing sighed. “But I feel that the themes they’ve come up with are all a bit lacking.”

Lu Xing thought for a moment and asked.

“Do you want the admissions publicity to be traditional or trendy?”

Huh?

Liu Qingqing blinked. “Trendy, I guess. Do you have any ideas?”

Lu Xing smiled. “I have two plans. If you choose one, how will you reward me?”

“If your plan is really good…”

Liu Qingqing’s lips curved softly. She looked at Lu Xing with a sweet, dazed softness.

“Junior brother, you can do whatever you want to me.”

Hiss—

The driver sucked in a breath of cold air.

‘Holy f*ck! Young people these days are so wild?’

Lu Xing stroked his chin.

“Then tell me your bank card password.”

The light instantly vanished from Liu Qingqing’s eyes. She ground her molars.

‘You stinking little thing! I gave you a chance, and you’re still useless!’

“Hehe, just kidding, just kidding.”

Lu Xing flashed a “V” sign.

“One plan is: between scenic and special feature publicity, choose ‘Beauty’ publicity.”

“The other plan is: between promoting faculty and heritage, choose ‘Abstract’ publicity.”

(TL: Abstract (抽象 – Chōuxiàng): Chinese internet slang for behavior that is bizarre, nonsensical, or “trolling.”)

Liu Qingqing was stunned.

“I’ve even written the copy for you.”

Lu Xing patted his chest, looking reliable.

“Haicheng University is the only university in the country with the name Haicheng University, and the only school abbreviated as Haida. According to statistics, Haicheng University is the only school with the exact same environment as Haicheng University!”

“Haicheng University is in Haicheng, but Qingbei University is not. This is one win.”

“Haicheng University has one win, Qingbei University has zero. This is a second win.”

“Haicheng University has two wins, Qingbei University has zero. This is a third win!”

“In summary, Haicheng University wins!”

The driver: ???

Liu Qingqing: ???

What?!

The driver rubbed his ears, wondering if he had heard correctly or if he was under a spell.

Liu Qingqing was speechless. After a long silence, she said solemnly:

“Lu Xing, promise me you’ll do less ‘abstract’ stuff in the future, okay? I’m worried about your health.”

Lu Xing was confused. “What does being abstract have to do with my health?”

Liu Qingqing said softly with her cute face:

“I’m afraid that if you ever hanged yourself, people would just think you were playing on a swing.”

Lu Xing choked.

So reasonable!

Arriving at the Haicheng History Museum, Liu Qingqing got out first with her bag.

Before Lu Xing stepped out, he gave a kind reminder.

“Uncle, you can’t just blindly copy how others coax people.”

He had noticed the driver was very moved and didn’t want to create any bad karma.

The driver was startled and withdrew his hand, which had been halfway through typing a message to his wife.

Mm. Suddenly, he could distinguish between the “Big and Small Kings.”

…
