Due to the presence of the burdensome ‘Thin, Wild Waist’, every round they fought was with much difficulty. Luckily, their opponents’ standards had also fallen accordingly. After much difficulty, the five of them had won three battles in a row. ‘Thin, Wild Waist’ happily left a message: “My rank rose! My rank rose! Legend, please accept my knees.”

Actually, Qin Ze’s gaming skills were just better than average, and he could not exhibit many fanciful moves. The most capable thing about him was that he had a bird’s eye view of everything; he knew what to do and when to do it and the respective ways to handle the situation they met with.

He had a very organized way of commanding as well, just like how a wolf leader could lead a bunch of sheep and defeat a group of wolves led by a sheep. There were many times where the other party lost most absurdly: their opening battle was clearly very powerful, but by the later part of the game, they suddenly realized they could not win them.

At 7:30, Qin Baobao hollered him home with a call.

At 7:45 when Qin Ze reached the house door, he took out his keys to open it and saw his sister curled up on the couch and watching television. She was wearing a light-blue pair of jeans that covered her legs, and there was a plate of washed grapes on the couch. Under the blue reflection of the television, her eyes were crystal-like, watery, and very attractive.

Even if he was used to his sister’s mesmerizing looks, Qin Ze could not help but take another look at her. He sat down on the couch and took out his phone to order takeout, but Qin Baobao suddenly kicked him and said with her eyes glued to the television, “Go, go, go. Go cook something.”

“Cook?” Qin Ze was taken aback. “Why should I cook? We can just buy takeout.”

Qin Baobao plucked out a grape and plopped it into her red lips before spitting the skin out in a shot. Charmingly, she rolled her eyes. “Takeouts are too expensive; we can’t afford them. In the future, we need to be more frugal and provide for ourselves.”

“I’m the one providing for us.” Qin Ze frowned.

“Don’t talk nonsense. I bought the ingredients already; you just need to cook them,” Qin Baobao said rightfully.

There was bean curd, fish, and some vegetables in the kitchen… just enough to make one meat dish and two vegetable dishes: bean curd with fish, mashed garlic with vegetables, and stir-fried celery with vegetables. Qin Ze inherited his mother’s culinary skills, but he was lazy and would order takeout whenever he could. The fragrance of the dishes floated into the living room, causing Qin Baobao to salivate profusely. She secretly slid into the kitchen with her slippers and pinched some food, but Qin Ze was filled with vengeance as he smacked her hands and pushed her out.

Qin Baobao rubbed her stomach and whined pitifully, “Baobao’s hungry…”

A chill ran down Qin Ze’s spine, and he had goosebumps all over his body.

A twenty-five-year-old person was learning how to whine and flirt like other girls.

When they were eating, Qin Ze looked at his sister with her cheeks filled and said, “Old Master told me yesterday to go home with you next week. Mom misses us.”

Qin Baobao’s hand stopped in midair while she was eating, and she raised her charming, melon-like face up from the bowl like an alerted fox. Unclearly, she said, “What are we doing? Do they want me to go on another blind date?”

“Old Master said no, but I don’t think his words are believable.” Qin Ze shrugged his shoulders. “You know how two-faced Old Master is.”

“I have no time. I need to practice my singing and dancing next weekend. You should go back yourself; just say that I am working overtime,” Qin Baobao said.

“I’m not going back either.”

Qin Baobao was confused.

“I have something on next weekend.”

“A date?” Qin Baobao’s aura changed.

“Date your head.” Qin Ze rolled his eyes. “I found a job, and I think I need to work overtime next weekend.”

“You should just find a job during the summer break. It’s nearing the end of terms; you should study dutifully. Don’t fail your subjects, if not, Dad will hit you with the feather duster.” Qin Baobao licked her lips and burped comfortably. “By then, I can’t save you.”

“When did you ever save me? Every time Dad hits me, you’ll just stand aside and watch the commotion happily. Qin Baobao, you’re really mean.” Qin Ze was vengeful.

Qin Baobao made a face at him.

After the meal, Qin Baobao was in charge of washing the dishes while Qin Ze sat in the living room and researched on his model building. He placed the notebook on the glass coffee table; while he bit on his pencil tip, he began searching for relevant information. More than ten years ago, his father had taught him that the slow needed to start earlier so he always practiced this.

However, judging from his current standards, it would be a miracle for him to understand the information. Some things really needed talent… like intelligence. There was a limit to how much hard work and how early the slow bird started flying could make up for. It was a bit extreme to say that someone who worked hard for ten years still could not compare to others working for a year, but the phenomena of three years beating one year was very common.

Take Qin Ze for example. When he was in the third grade of high school, Old Master took upon himself to be his tutor and disciplined his incapable son to get him to study tirelessly. However, no matter how hardworking he was and no matter how much he supervised him, Qin Ze could only get into a second-tier school. Qin Baobao, who had slacked throughout her first and second grade dreaming about being a superstar and only worked casually in the third grade, still managed to get into Fudan ever so casually.

He could not help but be jealous!

When Qin Ze thought of this, he raised his head in anger and glared at Qin Baobao who was bending over to wipe the table. The tight jeans wrapped around her voluptuous behind, which looked like a full moon. There was a pang in Qin Ze’s heart as his mind was empty but lecherous; he was afraid that there would be a ding in his mind, and missions like ‘touch Qin Baobao’s butt’ would appear.

I should find a girlfriend.

This thought popped up in Qin Ze’s head. His romance life was almost akin to none. In primary school, he had held a girl’s hand; and in middle school, all the classmates around him were dating. In order to keep up with the times, he made a deal with his table partner: if anyone asked, she was his girlfriend; and he was her boyfriend. He became her boyfriend in name for two years and did not even hold her hand before. In high school, studies took a toll on him; and he did not have such ideas again. When he was in his second year of university, he did chase a girl that was quite pretty and elegant; but it did not come into fruition.

He opened up the school forum and saw a post that was still placed in a very obvious location with the title ‘SUFE’s Collection of School Belles’. Inside the post was filled with pictures that students secretly or openly took of beautiful women. After some photoshop skills, all of them look as beautiful as fairies. Qin Ze took a look at it before but not in detail, mainly because his taste had become higher than Fudan’s entry requirement due to Qin Baobao; it was hard for him to admire an average-looking beauty.

Qin Ze took a closer look at the pretty photos of the girls in school. He thought times had changed; he would have cash and a flat so it was time for him to chase after a pretty girl. If not, when he became a billionaire in the future and girls came flying at him, he would be mocked severely before he could carry them happily into the room.

When Qin Ze was very focused on looking at the pictures, Qin Baobao washed her hands and came out from the kitchen as she plopped down on the couch. “Ee, ahh, ee, ahh…” She moaned as she stretched. Coldly, she saw that Qin Ze was looking at pictures of girls and immediately brought her face closer. She teased, “Yo, are you having puberty?”

While scrolling the mouse, Qin Ze said, “Look, there are quite a few belles in our school.”

“The photoshop is too fake. Their chins are so sharp it can poke someone, and their eyes are as big as an alien’s.”

Qin Ze wanted to say that it was just her plain jealousy, but when he turned around and saw his sister’s face that harmed everyone around her, he said instead, “That’s because their foundation is good. I like anyone who looks pretty like a flower.”

“All the pretty girls are attached. It would never be your turn.” Qin Baobao snapped unhappily.

“As long as I try, I can always make it,” Qin Ze turned around and rebutted.

Qin Baobao punched him and sat cross-legged on the couch. “You’re just saying it. In theory, you’re a giant but just a midget in action. It’ll be weird if you know how to chase a girl.”

Instantly, Qin Ze felt that his pride was hurt; and his humiliation turned into anger. “Who says I don’t know how to chase a girl? I had a girlfriend before, okay?”

Qin Baobao sneered. “It didn’t even last for a month, and you got dumped.”

Qin Ze was furious. “How dare you say that? If you didn’t poke your nose in blindly, would I be single? I would have been a real man with much experience.”

When he thought of this, he was very angry. Back then, he told Qin Baobao proudly—as though he had won a prize—that he was no longer single. When Qin Baobao heard that her brother had finally found a girlfriend, she looked happy and even suggested bringing her out to eat for her to check her out. Hence, Qin Ze asked his new date out and agreed to meet in front of the restaurant. That day, Qin Baobao dressed extremely refined, just like a superstar, and had earned many stares.

When Qin Ze saw that his girlfriend was coming and eagerly waved his hands, Qin Baobao flashed her killer move and sliced her throat in a move. She held Qin Ze’s shoulders and whined, “Hubby, is this the cheap woman you attracted outside? Her looks are barely passable.”

Qin Ze became as still as a stone.

Of course, they did not finish the meal, and his girlfriend left in a rage. Since then, she ignored Qin Ze, blocked him on her phone and other messaging platforms, and they became strangers.

“I was helping you to test her character and your relationship. True love won’t be so easily defeated,” Afterwards, Qin Baobao told him rightfully.

“I was helping you…” As expected, Qin Baobao still said the same thing.

Qin Ze spat on her and said, “Whatever. It’s been so long, and I understand why you did that. You’re just jealous that I found a girlfriend because you’re still single until now. Your heart isn’t balanced.”

Qin Baobao was stumped.

“Hmph, I was right. You have nothing to say, right? I exposed your secret.” Qin Ze felt as if he was like a legendary swordsman. They did not want to make a move, but when they did, the move would kill.

Suddenly, Qin Baobao stood up and grabbed the thing beside Qin Ze’s comic, Rem pillow, and smashed it on his head harshly. “The other party doesn’t want to talk to you; she threw a Rem at you.”

Pada! Pada! She stomped all the way back into her room and slammed the door.

“Ridiculous.” Qin Ze muttered under his breath and opened Points Mall. “System, I want to exchange for professional knowledge in finance.”
