So, she pulled out the big shots, speaking in an impatient tone: "Oh! Oh! What's with you—how can you be so rude? Didn't you see I was busy tackling a pressing issue?" "How could I be rude? Where did I offend you? Your problem has nothing to do with me!" High Liang glared at her, showing absolutely no courtesy. "Ah, you're just smug! I simply won't believe that we can't find this data!" Zhuang Mu-xuan stepped up to the challenge. She gestured to Sun Peng to keep searching diligently—should he succeed, she'd treat him to dinner. That delighted Sun Peng beyond measure. With a crisp nod, he instantly shifted into full gear, fully energized by the prospect of a dinner with a beautiful guest. After all, when you have a lovely hostess, the biggest challenge becomes just a minor hurdle. Yet, just five minutes later, Sun Peng's joyful expression turned pale. He gasped, "This virus is simply too strong—I'm completely at a loss." He lowered his head in resignation. "Sun, shall we go have dinner together?" "The beautiful one has already made her arrangements—there's no point in your going to all this trouble!" High Light smiled warmly at Sun Peng, yet his expression toward Zhuang Mu-xuan was utterly indifferent. This made Zhuang Mu-xuan glare at him with intense eyes, instantly delivering a series of decisive "kill" moments. Her resentment and anger were clearly visible on her face—rivals with narrow paths indeed. High Light's words served as a lifeline, and seeing Zhuang Mu-xuan, such a stunning woman, Sun Peng could only feel helpless. So he said to Zhuang Mu-xuan, "I'm sorry—I truly wanted to, but this virus is simply too strong. Didn't you see Dr. Liu struggling just as much?" After that, he stood shoulder to shoulder with High Light. Song Li stepped forward to comfort her good friend, but was gently persuaded by High Light: "Let's go have dinner!" "Zhuang Mu-xuan! Would you like to join us?" Song Li smiled warmly at Zhuang Mu-xuan. "No thanks—I've had enough of being stuck with a rival," Zhuang Mu-xuan replied, clearly disinterested. She couldn't bear High Light's presence anymore. "An enemy? You're the enemy!" Gao Liang was having none of it. "You're the enemy! You really are..." Zhuang Mu-xuan was so angry her hands trembled. "See?" Gao Liang had precisely wanted this effect—he wanted this beautiful girl to hate him, to hate him even more. These days, overly serious men often fail to attract attention. Since fate has already brought us into conflict, why not deepen it? Gao Liang and Sun Peng, Song Li, walked away, leaving Zhuang Mu-xuan behind. After they had completely gone, Zhuang Mu-xuan slammed her study notebook hard onto the table, buried her head, wiped away a few tears, and said, "Enemy, I hate you! One day I'll make you pay! Don't think you're in the clear too soon!" "Who has offended my lady Zhuang? Just name the person, and I'll take care of him!" A voice came from behind her. This voice startled Zhang Mu-xuan. She turned around to see a young man with a neat haircut and a fresh, pleasant appearance, dressed in a white suit—born with natural charm. Whenever he spoke, he always stared intently at Zhang Mu-xuan’s full, alluring breasts, looking down upon her from a lofty position, peering through her V-neck neckline to discover the endless beauty within. "Ma Huai! This has nothing to do with you!" Zhang Mu-xuan lifted her V-neck slightly to better cover her full chest and said, "You know today—there was a terrible hurricane virus outbreak, and my business thesis materials were lost!" She sighed as she spoke. "Wow! Isn't that still nothing to do with me? Miss Zhang’s matters are my matters! I’ll help you look for them!" As Ma Huai spoke, he continued to gaze at Zhang Mu-xuan’s full breasts, as if trying to see through the fabric and glimpse the two lovely white rabbits inside. Zhuang Muxuan's QQ email was open on her computer when her phone rang. Ma Huai was beside her, so she didn't have time to close the window—just gave Ma Huai a quick signal and rushed out to the corridor outside the reading room to take the call. Now Ma Huai started going through her computer, searching through every file on the entire hard drive, but couldn't find a trace of that business paper. For heaven's sake! I've been trying to woo beautiful women, and yet heaven isn't helping me—what a golden opportunity, and how disappointing it is to lose it! But, for heaven's sake, it's so hard to find! Hmm! What's in Zhuang Muxuan's QQ? I should take a good look at her profile—then, maybe, I can finally start wooing her! With a look that was as dreamy as Zhu Bajie's when he saw Chang'e, even though Zhu Muxuan wasn't right in front of him, her lingering fragrance still filled the air. Thinking back to how he had pursued her since high school, all the way through to Kyoto University—like a marathon that seemed never to end—it felt like she was simply too hard to catch. Damn it, Zhu Muxuan was truly difficult to win over. But this young lord had plenty of time and energy, and a wealthy father who could serve as a solid backer. What could possibly go wrong? This girl would surely become his dinner plate, his prized possession! As he thought this, he gave a passionate kiss to one of the beautiful photos in Zhu Muxuan's QQ album, saying: "Miss, whether you're from a noble family or a high-ranking official, I'm determined—like a mountain pine firmly rooted in the mountains—no matter how the winds from the east, west, north, or south blow, I will pursue you until I have you!" Ma Hua quickly scanned through all the materials, especially the stunning photos taken recently by Zhuang Mu-xuan with her digital camera. Ma Hua's eyes widened like lanterns, fixated on the inviting bust, daydreaming nonstop, his mouth dripping with saliva. He thought to himself: if he ever manages to win over Zhuang Mu-xuan and make love to her, it would be absolutely fantastic. After finishing, he wanted to keep going, but there was nothing left—so he refreshed the page. Hey! A new Word document had appeared, titled "Business Management Learning Paper." Ma Hua became as excited as if he had grasped a lifeline. "Heaven has helped me! After searching tirelessly, here it is—arriving effortlessly. Whenever I focus on Zhuang Mu-xuan's photos, good fortune follows. Haha! Today has been a real treat!" As Yuan Zhuang Mu Xuan was becoming her bed's outlet for her pent-up emotions, Zhuang Mu Xuan suddenly appeared beside him. Ma Hu greeted her with a charming smile, flattered and eager to say: "Ms. Qin, I've already located your business thesis for you—how shall I repay you?" Still, his gaze remained fixed on the two full, soft peaks of Zhuang Mu Xuan's chest. "Really?" Zhuang Mu Xuan couldn't believe it. "Where is it?" Ma Hu spun his eyes, saying, "In your QQ email, isn't it?" He then pointed with his finger. Zhuang Mu Xuan checked and found the sender was Administrator—unknown to her. "Ah, really?" Ma Hu explained, "I found it and sent it to your email under the system's default username!" "Oh—do they actually use that username as the sender?" Zhuang Mu-xuan was a bit puzzled. After all, it was common for senders to use "net" as the suffix. How could Ma Hua have the ability to send emails from a sender that didn't even exist? "Don't you believe me?" Ma Hua suddenly grew anxious, patting his chest with determination. "Miss Qin, why haven't you believed me yet? Did I not find the business paper you've been looking for make you unhappy? If that's the case, I'll simply delete it. After all, I'm also a bachelor's student in computer science. I originally chose this major because your computer broke down and no one helped resolve the issue." With a passionate speech and a visibly wounded expression, he tried to win over Zhuang Mu-xuan, whom he had been pursuing for four years. Was Ma Hua telling the truth? Actually, not at all. From high school through to now at university, he hasn't just been lingering over Zhuang Muxuan—he's been playing around with countless girls. Zhuang Muxuan simply proves to be the most difficult to win over. It took nearly a tear squeezed out of Ma Huai to finally get Zhuang Muxuan to meet his gaze with a steady, warm look—something that deeply comforted Ma Huai. This strategy truly worked. It seems that, in front of girls, one must adopt a mournful expression to win their sympathy and affection. "Alright! I believe you!" Zhuang Muxuan now glanced at her business thesis, beaming with delight. "You're absolutely amazing! I just had a graduate student searching for hours and couldn't find you—yet you arrived and immediately found her. That's truly impressive!" Her face was filled with excitement. "Now that I've solved this, how will you repay me?" Ma Huai, sensing the right moment, looked at Zhuang Muxuan with a slightly dreamy, twinkling gaze, his mouth already dripping with anticipation. "Ma Huai, as a token of appreciation, how about I treat you to dinner?" Zhuang Mu-xuan spoke softly and gently, her face still slightly blushing. "Yes! Yes!" Ma Huai was excited and eager to reach out and touch the full, rounded breasts of Zhuang Mu-xuan, but Zhuang Mu-xuan gently stepped in the way, saying, "Ma Huai, if you keep being so forward, I might just not invite you anymore!" "No, no, no! My dear Miss Zhuang! It's just that you're so fresh and lovely—I'm completely enchanted! After all, our Qin Miss is the top campus beauty in Kyōto." Worried that he might offend Zhuang Mu-xuan, Ma Huai knew from her nature that if she were displeased, she could go weeks without speaking to him. Today, he had finally won her heart. If he lost his composure now, all his four-year efforts would have been for nothing. For the love of beauty, he had to hold on. Once he succeeded in winning her over, then—well, that would be his victory. With this thought, Ma Huai became much more reserved. The Xiangju Wine House, a popular spot outside the campus, was visited by Zhuang Mu-xuan and Ma Huu in succession. Located conveniently near the university, it offers good facilities at a reasonable price, making it a favorite among student couples. Indeed, already several university students were gathered around tables in the main hall when Zhuang and Ma finally managed to secure a round table. Zhuang was about to call for a server and reach for her pink wallet, but Ma took the initiative—shouting at the server, "Serve the food now! I'm starving!" He then pulled out a stack of RMB from his pocket, counted neither, and tossed it onto the table, saying, "Serve more dishes that this lady loves—preferably the best ones! Bring them all over here! I won't let you down!" Seeing the generous stack of cash, the server's eyes lit up. She nodded warmly, saying, "Of course! Please wait a moment!" What was Zhuang to do in the meantime? Ma Huai's mind was spinning rapidly. With such a wonderful opportunity, not to win over the beautiful girl would have been utterly unreasonable. So, he pulled out a white-gold ring from his pocket and held it out with both hands, mimicking the scene in movies where the male lead proposes to the female lead. "Ms. Zhuang! The sea may dry up, the stone may crumble, but my love for you will never fade. Please accept my affection! Will you be my girlfriend?" The words reached nearly everyone in the room, and all eyes in the hotel hall turned toward them, leaving Zhuang Mu-xuan momentarily at a loss and her face flushed with embarrassment. At that moment, some of the male classmates began cheering, urging, "Say yes! Say yes!" This added further pressure, making Zhuang's face even redder and her neck lower. Though she didn't immediately agree, she simply pointed to the notebook that Ma Huai always carried. "I'd like to open that business paper again and take a look!" "No need! I've already found it!" Did you just see it in your QQ email? The voice was loud, as if addressed to everyone. Among the group, one person sat at a table near the window, though a little distance away from Zhuang Mu-xuan's dining table—yet their voices still reached clearly. At that table sat Song Li, Gao Liang, and Sun Peng. Song Li and Sun Peng were both surprised—Zhuang Mu-xuan's business paper hadn't been found after such a long search just now, hadn't it? How had Ma Huian found it? But Gao Liang's expression changed as he looked toward Ma Huian in the distance, thinking: Don't get too excited yet. Can you really find that business paper? I can make it appear—or make it vanish. So he pulled out his Zhi Duo Xing smartphone—very skillfully, actually. This Zhi Duo Xing smartphone was essentially a handheld computer capable of wireless high-speed internet access, with a wireless bandwidth and speed approximately 1,000 times faster than Ma Huian's laptop. What a hundredfold means, I won’t elaborate—especially since as a graduate in computer science, he stands out with strong theoretical and practical expertise, having mastered computer skills thoroughly. Thus, in just one minute, he completed everything he had intended. This left Song Li and Sun Peng beside him completely unaware, thinking he simply wanted to make a phone call. I opened it—if it's still in QQ Mail, then you're my girlfriend! I'll definitely wear this ring for you!" Ma Huai looked at Zhuang Mu-xuan with a fluttering, admiring gaze, his pride shining clearly on his face. As soon as he said this, he happily opened the website, while Zhuang Mu-xuan smoothly logged into her QQ Mail account. Upon opening it, however, her face fell dramatically, and she sighed in dismay, "No! No! It's gone! It's not there anymore!" "What's going on? Let me check!" Ma Huai gasped, then looked again—by golly! It was fine just a moment ago! How did it vanish so suddenly? This QQ Mail account belongs to Zhuang Mu-xuan—only she knows the username and password. How could it have disappeared so abruptly? Could someone have discovered her credentials, logged in, and deleted it? Ma Huai's earlier bright, confident expression instantly turned as dull as a cabbage left in the frost—now wilted. He just stared blankly, his platinum ring having fallen to the floor, completely ignoring it. For heaven's sake, after finally securing a proposal, why is this email stuff being automatically deleted? My goodness! An unexpected turn of events has occurred, so both Zhuang Mu-xuan and Ma Huai have no appetite for dinner. The server has already brought over a full table of dishes, yet neither of them has touched a single bite. Today, not only did they fail to win over the beautiful woman, but they also ended up losing money. Ma Huai feels a bit disheartened, though he's not particularly worried about the financial loss. After all, his father is one of the top real estate developers in Jingzhou City, earning a steady stream of cash every day. He has plenty of funds to spend—what truly bothers him is that Zhuang Mu-xuan, such a stunning beauty, was just one step away from making progress. Yet today, everything has gone awry. At this point, Song Li, who has been watching patiently, can't bear it anymore. As close as they are—golden sisterhood, both in their late teens—she's only three months older than Zhuang Mu-xuan, and they've been close since university days. She doesn't want Zhuang Mu-xuan to feel so down. So she "Come eat here!" The voice was bright and crisp, drawing everyone's attention to Song Li. "Oh! Look, there's our second most beautiful girl here!" Ma Huai turned his gaze toward Song Li, but Song Li waved her hand and said, "It's none of your business—I'm calling my sister, Zhuang Muxuan!" Zhuang Muxuan noticed Song Li and smiled gently, but when she saw Gao Liang, she froze. How had this person ended up here? Ah—Song Li had invited him! Hmph! If only she hadn't needed to submit her paper to the professor tomorrow, she'd have been perfectly fine with waiting. So she said, "No thanks!" Now, how could Ma Huai let Song Li drag her over to eat at her table? So he smiled warmly and said, "Miss Zhuang, the dishes are all ready—would you be so kind as to join us here?" As soon as he finished speaking, Song Li pulled Zhuang Muxuan gently, and Zhuang Muxuan, like a child feeling slighted, let herself be led without any strength to push her away. Ma Huai was frozen in place, his face stretched long and expressionless. "Li-jie! I don't want to eat! I'm really feeling stressed!" Zhuang Mu-xuan was pulled by Song Li to sit beside her, her head bowed, her elbow resting on the table, her hands covering her face as she spoke. "It's not such a big deal—I'll think of something to help you out. Let's eat first! You must be hungry now. Here, try this—steamed egg with scallions, your favorite!" Though Song Li was only three months older than Zhuang Mu-xuan, she was much more mature in many ways, so she could care for her like a sister. Zhuang Mu-xuan took a small bite with a graceful demeanor, so elegant that Sun Peng was completely mesmerized. With two campus beauties from Kyoto University right beside him, he truly enjoyed both his meals and his view—what a treat! High-light had invited him to join them for lunch, and it truly hadn't been a wasted visit.
