Many people had sent text ssages, but Han Lie ignored all of them except hers.
Of course, it wasn't because of her self-proclaid F-cup...
Big Naiyun: "Lie Bro, how co you didn't co to see us after returning to school? Everyone misses you... Forget it, I know you're busy, but no matter how busy you are, you need to take care of yourself, drink less, and don't waste too much energy on irrelevant people. I'll also try to control myself and not disturb you too much..."
Well, her tea skills have improved noticeably after just a few days!
Han Lie didn't know who she had been practicing with, but her skills had certainly improved rapidly. She seed not far from achieving her final form.
Of course, she had always been a scheming girl with an exceedingly rcenary astuteness, so it wasn't really surprising.
Han Lie's reply was tricky: "What do you an? Speak plainly!"
Yu Yun, who was dieting in her dormitory, sat up with a flutter on her bed the mont she got the reply.
What Han Lie replied didn't matter.
The important thing was... he actually replied to right away!
Could it be...
Is my sincerity finally about to move a heart of stone?!
Yu Yun excitedly held her phone with both hands, typing furiously, then deleting, deleting then retyping, retyping then revising...
After much effort, she finally crafted a reply that seed "just right" to her.
Big Naiyun: "What could I possibly an? I'm just worried you're too cold or too hot, worried you're suffering or tired. You finally co back and don't even suggest eting up to put my mind at ease. I'm your most well-behaved and sensible big cousin, after all!"
That man: "⊙o⊙ Big cousin?! How did that co about?"
Yu Yun felt her sche succeeding. She chuckled inwardly and imdiately continued with her ploy.
Big Naiyun: "Pan Ge is an affectionate little sister, Xi Luting is a dear sister, Fang Feifei is a maid. Wang Tianqing and I are stuck in the middle, neither here nor there. If that doesn't make a cousin, what does?"
That man: "Then why are you the 'big cousin'?"
Big Naiyun: "(Shy) Ah! I won't tell you! Figure it out on your own!"
To be honest, this routine was indeed a bit old.
However, whether a routine worked or not didn't depend on how old it was, but on how targeted and appropriately it was used.
In any case, Lie Bro couldn't resist. Instantly, various scenes replayed in his mind, the most impactful being from a class in October—
She wore a loose, round-neck T-shirt that day, the kind that only revealed the collarbone—couldn't be more normal. Yet, when she propped her 'nickna' (her famous assets) on the desk, that 'overflowing' effect...
Wow!
At that mont, Lie Bro had felt his throat tighten. He'd shifted away slightly and pressed his legs together.
If Xi Luting hadn't been beside him... COUGH, COUGH!
Regaining his composure, Han Lie texted back matter-of-factly: "Forget it. If you can't figure it out, I'm not interested. Do you really miss that much?"
Unlike Yu Yun, Dog Lie didn't play any gas throughout the conversation, replying in a typically straightforward male fashion.
Normally, this approach wouldn't win over a girl with a strong personality.
But—and this is key—when you're reasonably confident in your position, giving the other person enough space to perform is the smarter move. It's a bit like Wang Ergou's sunk cost theory: you need to let the other person take the initiative and invest more effort and thought. Gods and goddesses are 'propped up' that way.
Sure enough, sensing an opportunity, Yu Yun grew restless.
Big Naiyun: "Of course!"
Big Naiyun: "Do you have ti?"
Big Naiyun: "Wow! Big Cousin, take out! I'm super curious about your life now!"
Heh, look at that reaction!
Even though Han Lie had anticipated this, her enthusiasm still lifted his spirits.
So, a pretty girl being a bit of a 'green tea' was never a huge problem. When they act cute, show submissiveness, and express admiration, how could it not satisfy a man's vanity?
The real issue was always girls who thought too highly of themselves and didn't know their place.
That man: "Tomorrow, then. I happen to need to buy a couple of small gifts. You can be my consultant."
Big Naiyun: "Woah~~~"
Big Naiyun: "Then how should I dress? I don't want to embarrass you. I want to make you the man with the most face there!"
Big Naiyun: "I'll try on a few more outfits later, rember to give your opinion!"
Whoa!
She really is...
So perceptive!
Even though Han Lie had seen and experienced much and was currently 'recharging,' he couldn't help but feel a stir of anticipation and excitent.
In his previous life, Lie the Loser had always been curious about how she'd look in various uniforms, even curious about their shape—an aunty's F-cups were a di a dozen, but hers? Duan Xiaoyi, in one of his bullshit bragging sessions, had sworn an oath that hers were a divine treasure that would put the 'Big Three' to sha!
Although Duan Xiaoyi's boasts had to be taken with a grain of salt, the fact remained: even after Yu Yun cheated on him and initiated the divorce, that loser would rather kneel and beg than let her go.
As a nouveau riche from demolition compensation and a Magic Capital local, Duan Xiaoyi certainly wasn't lacking for 'options,' definitely not so naive country bumpkin who hadn't seen the world.
So, one could only imagine how exceptional she truly was.
SLURP!
Lie Bro took a sip of his drink. Suddenly realizing she had actually managed to pique his interest, he couldn't help but chuckle at himself.
Ah, Yun, you truly understand n... Impressive, very impressive!
When Han Lie had nothing better to do, he once carefully reviewed his previous life. He was quite surprised to find that his single status and fear of marriage were entirely because the girls he'd t in his youth were progressively more outlandish.
Never mind Chen Yanfei—she was a goddess among mortals, her qualities far exceeding the average.
Then there was Xi Luting. Her inner core was actually weaker than Chen Yanfei's, but her outward aggressiveness and belligerence were more than double Chen Yanfei's, making her far more terrifying to the Lie the Loser of those years.
