Chapter 59: Su Qing’s Plan to Drive a Tiger to Devour a Wolf

The next day at noon.

The cafeteria was bustling with noise and activity.

Everywhere you looked, there were girls, chattering and giggling like a flock of sparrows.

Su Qianqian (Su Qing) and Shen Qingyue, holding their trays, found a corner table and sat down.

As soon as they were seated, Shen Qingyue’s gaze involuntarily drifted in a certain direction.

Lin Mo’s table.

Zhou Duoduo was already there.

Sitting next to Lin Mo, laughing so hard she was shaking.

On the table were several boxes of cut fruit, clearly brought by Zhou Duoduo.

(;——-—).

Shen Qingyue’s chopsticks paused for a moment.

Su Qianqian glanced over, then looked again.

“Qingyue, look, she’s here again.”

Shen Qingyue didn’t say anything, just lowered her head and focused on eating her rice.

Su Qianqian sighed.

“Qingyue, look at her. Laughing so flirtatiously, hmph, so shameless. You’d think she won the lottery or something.”

Shen Qingyue looked up.

She glanced over, then lowered her head again.

Su Qianqian continued:

“Do you know what she brought Lin Mo? Strawberries, blueberries, and cherries. All the expensive stuff.”

Shen Qingyue’s chopsticks stopped.

Su Qianqian lowered her voice:

“That kind of girl is the most dangerous. Gentle, considerate, smooth-talking, and she brings gifts. Guys eat that right up.”

Shen Qingyue didn’t speak, but her face paled a little.

Su Qianqian looked at her.

“Qingyue, didn’t you make up your mind last night? To take action today.”

Shen Qingyue lifted her head.

“But… I…”

“But what?” Su Qianqian cut her off. “If you keep saying ‘but,’ he’ll be snatched away.”

Shen Qingyue bit her lip.

Su Qianqian leaned in a little closer.

“Look, she’s here again today. If you don’t go over there soon, Lin Mo will be completely bewitched by her.”

Shen Qingyue took a deep breath and stood up. “I… I’ll go.”

Su Qianqian’s eyes lit up, the corner of her mouth lifting slightly.

“Good! It’s fine, I’ll go with you!”

The two of them picked up their trays and walked over.

They reached Lin Mo’s table.

Zhou Duoduo was holding a fork, spearing a piece of strawberry and offering it to Lin Mo’s mouth.

“Lin Mo, try a bite, it’s really sweet.”

Lin Mo leaned back slightly.

“No, no, I can do it myself…”

“Come on, your hands are dirty, let me feed you.”

(° 口°)

Seeing this scene, Shen Qingyue’s face turned green.

She walked over.

“Lin Mo.”

Lin Mo looked up.

Seeing her, he was taken aback.

“Study Representative?”

Shen Qingyue looked at him.

…

Then she looked at the strawberry in Zhou Duoduo’s hand.

…

“Um… are you guys eating?”

Zhou Duoduo smiled.

“Yes, I brought Lin Mo some fruit. You are… Shen Qingyue, right? Lin Mo’s high school classmate, I remember you.”

Shen Qingyue nodded.

Zhou Duoduo’s smile grew sweeter.

“Want to join us? I brought plenty.”

As she spoke, she pushed the fruit boxes towards the center of the table.

Shen Qingyue looked at the fruit.

Strawberries, blueberries, cherries.

Neatly arranged, beautifully cut.

(;——-—).

She suddenly remembered what Su Qianqian had taught her.

“Um…” she began.

Zhou Duoduo looked at her.

“What’s wrong?”

Shen Qingyue took a deep breath.

“Lin Mo, I have something for you too.”

She pulled a small packet of cookies from her pocket.

She had baked them herself last night.

Wrapped in oil paper, tied with a bow.

Lin Mo was stunned.

“This is…”

“I… I made them myself.” Shen Qingyue’s face flushed. “Want to try?”

Zhou Duoduo watched from the side.

Her smile didn’t change.

But her eyes flickered for a moment.

Lin Mo took the cookies.

“Thank you, Study Representative.”

Shen Qingyue lowered her head.

“You’re welcome.”

The atmosphere became a little微妙.

Zhou Duoduo suddenly laughed. “Oh my, Qingyue, you’re so skilled. You can even make cookies. Not like me, I can only buy ready-made ones.”

As she spoke, she picked up her fork and speared another strawberry.

“Lin Mo, have another bite. You can eat Qingyue’s cookies later, but the strawberries should be eaten while they’re fresh.”

(; —-—)

Shen Qingyue looked at her.

This woman…

She’s really good.

Su Qianqian stood nearby.

She hadn’t said a word the whole time.

But the corner of her mouth curved up slightly.

(V.

Yes, just like that.

Fight.

*

Evening.

In the dormitory.

Shen Qingyue sat at the desk, lost in thought.

Su Qianqian pushed the door open and came in. “Qingyue, how was it? How do you feel about today?”

Shen Qingyue looked up.

“That Zhou Duoduo… she’s really something.”

Su Qianqian sat down beside her.

“Something, right? I told you, that kind of girl is the hardest to deal with.”

Shen Qingyue lowered her head.

“Am I useless…”

Su Qianqian patted her shoulder.

“Not at all. You did well today. At least you let Lin Mo know you can give gifts too. And what you gave was something you made with your own hands.”

Shen Qingyue didn’t speak.

Su Qianqian looked at her.

“Qingyue, do you know what kind of person Zhou Duoduo is?”

Shen Qingyue looked up.

“What kind?”

Su Qianqian lowered her voice:

“I asked around. She’s a sophomore. She’s been extremely popular since high school. She’s never been short of guys around her.”

Shen Qingyue’s expression changed. “Then why does she still…”

“Why is she still targeting Lin Mo?” Su Qianqian smiled. “Because that’s just what she likes. She likes seeing guys orbit around her. She likes watching people fight over her.”

Shen Qingyue’s face changed again.

Su Qianqian continued:

“You know what’s even more outrageous? It seems like… she doesn’t just like guys.”

Shen Qingyue was taken aback.

“Doesn’t just like guys?”

“Right. I heard she was previously… very close with a senior.” Su Qianqian phrased it delicately. “After that senior graduated, she got bored. Now there’s a new guy, so of course she’s going to latch on.”

Shen Qingyue opened her mouth.

“So she… towards Lin Mo…”

“It’s not real liking.” Su Qianqian looked at her. “She’s just looking for novelty, for a thrill.”

Shen Qingyue fell silent.

After a long while.

“What should I do then?”

Su Qianqian smiled.

“What should you do? Of course, keep going. You’re more sincere than her, better at taking care of people. Over time, Lin Mo will naturally see that.”

Shen Qingyue looked at her.

“Qianqian… why are you helping me so much?”

Su Qianqian was momentarily stunned.

Then she smiled.

“Because we’re best friends. If best friends don’t help each other, who will?”

Shen Qingyue was a little moved.

“Thank you.”

Su Qianqian waved her hand.

“Don’t mention it. Get some sleep early, we have class tomorrow.”

She stood up.

Walked to the door.

Turned back.

“Oh, right, that Zhou Duoduo will definitely come again tomorrow. Remember to keep it up.”

Shen Qingyue nodded.

The door closed. Su Qianqian stood in the corridor.

The smile on her face faded bit by bit.

(V)*…

Zhou Duoduo?

Hah.

She didn’t need to lift a finger.

Let Shen Qingyue fight with her.

It would be best if they both ended up hurt.

She just needed to watch from the sidelines.

Watch them wear each other down.

And then…

She remembered what she saw during the day downstairs at Lin Mo’s dormitory building.

Zhou Duoduo came out of the building.

Seeing her, she smiled.

“You’re the new one, right? Su Qianqian?”

Su Qianqian nodded.

Zhou Duoduo looked her over. “You’re quite pretty. Interested in getting to know each other?”

Su Qianqian was taken aback.

“What?”

Zhou Duoduo leaned in a little closer.

“I said, you’re quite pretty. Have time for a coffee sometime?”

Su Qianqian’s mind buzzed.

This woman…

She doesn’t even let girls off the hook?

She took a step back.

“I… I’m not used to having coffee with people I don’t know well.”

Zhou Duoduo smiled.

“It’s fine, we’ll get familiar slowly.”

She turned and left.

Leaving Su Qianqian standing there.

(;———).

This woman… was more dangerous than she had imagined.

Back in her dorm room.

Su Qianqian lay on her bed.

Her mind was turning.

Zhou Duoduo.

Shen Qingyue.

Lin Mo.

Three people.

She needed to think carefully.

How to make them…

Fight even harder.

Interesting.
