Chapter 178 It's getting cold.
Chi Yan compensated Shi Sui with an ice cream, and Shi Sui bought Chi Yan an ice cream. They then strolled around the mall eating and played the goldfish scooping game in the children's area.
Upon arriving at the hotel room door, Shi Sui waved and said, "See you tomorrow."
Chi Yan lowered his head, his gaze gently falling on the girl's smiling eyes: "You have to date me after graduation, okay? See you tomorrow."
Feeling as if his heart was soaked in honey, Chi Yan swayed back to his room.
Then--
The time for liquidation.
Chi Yan picked up her phone and started typing rapidly.
Chi Yan: [Shangguan Ying, didn't we agree to keep an eye on Xu Chaomu? Where did you go?]
[He moved closer to Shi Sui; look what they're saying at the winter camp!]
[Everyone's saying he's Shi Sui's boyfriend!]
Shangguan Ying was reading a novel when new messages popped up on the screen.
Annoying, it's affecting her reading of the novel.
After watching the ending, she opened WeChat to check for new messages.
I can already sense that the young master's anger level has reached its maximum.
The young master is still sending: [Why would Shi Sui possibly be interested in him?!]
[He's just a better student, not as handsome as me, not as fit as me, and not as rich as me.]
[Her personality isn't as good as mine either; she's inferior to me in every way.]
[......]
Shangguan Ying hesitated for a few seconds before replying: [Young Master is as confident as ever.]
Chi Yan paused for a few seconds, realizing that she was being sarcastic.
But he didn't think he had said anything wrong; he was simply better than Xu Chaomu!
Chi Yan cut to the chase: [Shangguan Ying, you promised to keep an eye on Xu Chaomu for me.]
Shangguan Ying replied instantly: [I've been watching them every day.]
Chi Yan: ...Look at that head!
Shangguan Ying: [I don't want Xu Chaomu to get close to Shi Sui either, but I'm not like some people who would even deprive their wives of the right to make normal friends.]
I love hearing the word 'wife,' but—
Chi Yan: [Xu Chaomu doesn't make friends normally! He likes Shi Sui; he's a homewrecker!]
Shangguan Ying paused for a moment: [A mistress?]
Shangguan Ying: [What mistress? Are you Shi Sui's boyfriend? Do you have the right to call her a mistress?]
Chi Yan was silent for half a second, then sadly realized that he really wasn't qualified, but—
He was shocked: [You're speaking up for Xu Chaomu?!]
Shangguan Ying: [I only stand on the side of reason.]
Chi Yan: [...]
Shangguan Ying: [Even if you and Shi Sui get together, are you going to interfere with her social life and control her so she doesn't talk to other guys?]
Shangguan Ying: [Chi Yan, you're too possessive. No girl would like someone like that.]
Shangguan Ying: [Xu Chaomu wouldn't act like you. This afternoon, Shi Sui left with you, did he say no?]
Shangguan Ying: [If it were you, and Shi Sui and Xu Chaomu were alone together, you'd explode.]
Shangguan Ying: [Being overly possessive is a disease; go get it treated.]
Chi Yan: ...
He was the one who confronted Shangguan Ying, but he ended up being scolded for no reason.
He needs to be quiet.
On the other side, after Shangguan Ying finished her output, the corners of her lips curled up slightly, indicating that she was in a good mood.
She turned to Shi Sui and asked, "Sui Sui, where are you in 'The Stable Triangular Relationship of Wushan Clouds and Rain'?"
Shi Sui was lying on the table reading a comic book: "I've already read half of it, but I still can't figure out who the male lead is. Is it the one with black hair, or the one with white hair?"
"They are all male leads, and they all end up with the female lead."
Shi Sui was confused: "Huh? What do you mean?"
"Broadening one's thinking and stabilizing the love triangle, of course, means that the female lead and the two male leads are happily together."
Shi Sui tilted her head to the right: "But why can you date two boyfriends at the same time? Shouldn't you be loyal in a relationship?"
"Why not?" Shangguan Ying asked. "There used to be polygamy, so what's wrong with girls dating multiple boyfriends these days?"
Shi Sui tilted her head to the left: "?"
“Triangles are certainly stable, but quadrilaterals are good too,” Shangguan Ying asked. “Want to play a game where you raise a man? It’s really popular lately, ‘Love and Pay-to-Win Husband’.”
Shi Sui: "Raising a man?" What kind of weird game is that?
Shangguan Ying: "Give me your phone, I'll download it for you."

The next day, the results of the final exam were announced. Xu Chaomu got a perfect score without a doubt, while Shi Sui, somewhat unexpectedly and pleasantly surprised, also got a perfect score.
On the awards stage, the gold medal winners stood in a row as the organizers presented them with their awards.
As the only two to receive a perfect score, Shi Sui and Xu Chaomu garnered the attention of the entire audience.
"Wow, they're such a perfect couple, both good-looking and intelligent. This world is really not friendly to strangers."
"Shh, they're not a couple. Did you see that guy standing on the right side of the stage? He was sticking to Shi Sui like she was his boyfriend."
"Really? Shi Sui and the number one are the real perfect match."
……
On the awards stage, as the gold medal was hung around her neck, Shi Sui heard the sound of confetti being scattered from the system inside her head.
System: [Congratulations, host, on winning the gold medal! Two companies from the Gu Group are on their way!]
Shi Sui: [It's getting cold.]
system:[……?]
Shi Sui: [The Gu family is going bankrupt.]
Shi Sui pursed her lips, desperately trying to suppress her laughter, afraid that she wouldn't be able to hold back her laughter on the awards stage.
Xu Chaomu stood with her.
He looked down and saw the girl's dimples and her bright, sparkling eyes.
When it came time to take photos, he moved a little closer to her, and a smile appeared on his lips.
‘Click’.
From below the stage, Chi Yan's gaze remained fixed on the smiling girl, his lips curving upwards as he joined in the applause from those around him.
He smiled until he saw Xu Chaomu subtly take a small step forward.
His face turned black.
Why should he? He's never taken a photo with Shi Sui in such a grand setting!
Well, it's all his fault for filling in the wrong answer sheet on his math final exam.
Damn it, otherwise, if he had participated in the winter camp, he would have been the only one standing next to Shi Sui!

Something terrible has happened to the Gu Group!
Two subsidiaries of the Gu Group in the real estate sector have been exposed for engaging in capital operations and failing to disclose funds in compliance with regulations, resulting in violations.
At the shareholders' meeting, everyone was in a state of panic, but they couldn't figure out who was targeting them!
Fortunately, those were just two limited liability companies. The Gu family was neither the legal representative nor a shareholder, and they had taken precautions to separate their assets, so the fire did not reach them.
Soon after assessing the market value and risks, the two subsidiaries were transferred at an extremely low price.

After the winter camp ended, Shi Sui's phone was bombarded with messages.
The news that 'Shi Sui, Shangguan Ying, and Xu Chaomu won the gold medal' spread like wildfire, exploding on the school forum in just half a day.
[It's here! Official good news from the Digital Alliance Winter Camp! A new record has been set at Xinghua!]
The main post included a photo, a group photo downloaded from the official website. In the center of the photo, Shi Sui and Xu Chaomu were receiving their award, with Shangguan Ying, who came in sixth place, standing two people away from them.
2L: Ahhhhh, the academic genius is in the center position, no wonder he's an academic genius, awesome!
3L: The official rankings and results are out, and Shi Sui got a perfect score. Sui-jie is awesome!
4L: Nobody's praising Shangguan Ying? Then I'll take my Yingying away.
5L: As expected of my favorite couple, you two are the most successful among all the couples I've shipped!
6L: Everyone, make way! I've brought the marriage registration office with me!
……
CP (couple pairing) fans have sprung up like mushrooms after rain.
Upon seeing the post, Song Xinying felt uneasy and quickly messaged Shi Sui: [Sui Sui, you didn't manage to bring the academic genius down from her pedestal, did you?]
