Chapter 24: My Roommate’s Leg Touch

Qin Liang stared at the girl’s extreme reaction, feeling a bit bewildered.

‘Meeting in person shouldn’t be this exciting.’

‘No, it’s not just excitement.’

‘That look in her eyes, that surprise, that disbelief… it’s as complicated as the protagonist in a magical girl transformation H-anime being caught by his best friend, who knows him inside and out, secretly liking to wear women’s clothing, and his tough-guy image collapsing from then on.’

Qin Liang wasn’t sure if this metaphor was appropriate, but at this moment, it seemed inexplicably fitting to describe the girl before him.

‘But… we’re not that familiar with each other, are we? We only met once at the cafeteria. Why is she acting like we’re old acquaintances?’

“Do you… know me?” Qin Liang asked doubtfully after a moment’s hesitation.

As soon as he said this, the girl jumped as if her tail had been stepped on, waving her hands in a panic and hastily denying it. “I don’t know you, I don’t know you! I really don’t know you! This is the first time I’ve known you, no, I, I, I… I saw you last time, but this is our official meeting. I, I, I, I’m very happy!”

Her words were jumbled, incoherent, and contradictory. Anyone could see that something was wrong. Even the girl herself realized it.

Tang Yunle wished she could just slap herself!

‘Calm down!’

‘Get back to normal, quick!’

All she could say was that the fact that her sugar daddy was her roommate had hit her like a heavy punch, leaving her completely stunned!

If she were to compare this offline meeting to a game of chess, she had calmly sat down at the board, thought of all sorts of countermeasures, how to dress up nicely to leave a good impression, how to provide emotional value to him, and how to get him to willingly give her money. She had analyzed all of his possible moves and had come up with a response for each one.

But her opponent hadn’t moved a single piece. Instead, he had sat down at the board and smashed it over her head.

The fact that her sugar daddy was Qin Liang had truly left her stunned and flustered.

If the truth were to come out one day, they were just one bunk apart, seeing each other all the time. Wouldn’t he just stab her?

Qin Liang could see that the girl was hiding something from him, but he didn’t press the issue. After all, they were just online friends meeting for the first time. Who didn’t have some privacy they didn’t want to share?

He extended his hand with a smile.

“Hello, my name is Qin Liang, also known as GentleAsAGem.”

“I’m It’s Kele, Not Leke. My name is… forget it, you can just call me Kele.” Tang Yunle extended her hand in return, still feeling extremely guilty.

She had clearly made so many plans before, planning to charm him so much that he would continue to shower her with money, but now…

‘My roommate is my sugar daddy!’

Although her sugar daddy wasn’t a pervert, he was a real, hardcore leg-fetishist.

This meant that she would have to live with a severe leg-fetishist for the next four years. Who knows what would happen!!

“Where’s your sister?” Qin Liang asked, sensing the girl’s restraint and looking around, trying to start a conversation.

“She didn’t come. She has class. And because of what happened last time, I gave her a talking-to, so she’s probably a little embarrassed,” Tang Yunle replied weakly.

The young man nodded, his gaze inadvertently sweeping over her calves under her shorts, and he asked casually, “Not wearing black stockings?”

“It’s too hot, so I didn’t wear them. If you like them, I can wear them next time.”

“Okay, have you had lunch?”

“No.” Tang Yunle touched her stomach. As soon as class was over, she had gone straight to the place she had agreed to meet Tang Yunke to transform and put on women’s clothing. She hadn’t had lunch yet.

“What do you want to eat? My treat.”

“Braised chicken rice with lemonade!”

As soon as the words left her mouth, Tang Yunle wanted to slap herself. Damn it, why was she so lame? He was a rich kid, how could she suggest such a commoner’s meal?

She should have at least ordered something high-end like a Boston lobster to show some taste!

Qin Liang looked at Kele in surprise. Was the college’s braised chicken rice really that charming?

Someone in his dorm ordered braised chicken rice every day, and now this netizen he had just met also had a soft spot for it.

But since they had already agreed, it wasn’t good to change their minds.

He waved to her. “Let’s go.”

“I’ll take you to eat braised chicken rice. The one near the gym is pretty good.”

Watching the young man turn and lead the way, Tang Yunle clutched the corner of her clothes and followed.

The sound of her white shoes on the stone path, mixed with the drumming of her heart, was exceptionally clear in the hot and humid early summer air.

Braised chicken rice with iced lemonade.

Tang Yunle’s favorite.

Affordable, large portions, with both meat and vegetables.

The lid of the clay pot was lifted, and a rich aroma, mixed with white steam, rose up. The chicken pieces had absorbed the sauce, falling off the bone at a touch. The mushrooms were soft and glutinous, the enoki mushrooms smooth and tender, and the potatoes were stewed until soft.

Two spoonfuls of amber-colored sauce were poured over the white rice, coating it in a rich and savory flavor, slightly spicy on the palate, the aroma of the sauce and meat intertwined. The lemonade was sweet and sour, cutting through the grease. The combination of hot and cold was simply exquisite.

If it were any other day, Tang Yunle would have already been unable to suppress the gluttonous worm in her stomach and would have devoured her food like a starving tiger. But today…

Looking at the young man with ice-blue eyes in the seat, she held her tray and took a few deep breaths.

‘Calm down, calm down. Be ladylike, be ladylike. Just as Tang Yunke emphasized, be a little more ladylike to leave a good impression on him.’

‘This will make it easier to get money from him in the future.’

But before that, she had to make a choice: for example… should she sit across from Qin Liang, or next to him?

Perhaps this choice would seem like a mute person eating sour radishes to others, a pointless worry. But as a provider of emotional value to men in the virtual world, Tang Yunle believed that details determined success or failure.

If they were just roommates, it wouldn’t matter where she sat. But now, Tang Yunle wanted to get money from him, so she had to max out the emotional value.

Sitting across from Qin Liang meant that they were just online friends with a normal relationship, and they couldn’t get touchy-feely during the meal. But sitting next to him, putting other things aside, the most direct benefit was that during the meal, she could use her other hand to feel him up and enjoy some benefits.

Qin Liang was eating his braised chicken rice when he suddenly noticed the girl still standing rigidly to the side, her knuckles white as she clutched her tray. Sensing her excessive restraint and unease, he patted the seat next to him and smiled reassuringly. “Don’t be nervous, sit here.”

Tang Yunle immediately felt as if she had been granted a pardon and sat down next to the young man.

The fresh scent of lemon, mixed with the heat, wafted over, mingling with the aroma of the food in the air.

At the same time, it was refreshing and invigorating.

Tang Yunle took the opportunity to calm down while eating and started a conversation, trying to regain control of the situation.

‘Build up good feelings, offer benefits, max out the emotional value, and then get the money!’

The employee handbook had taught her: never contradict a man. As a provider of emotional value to men in the virtual world, she just needed to nod obediently.

“Big brother, what are we going to do later? Go shopping, or play games?”

“I’m going to pick out a few pairs of stockings for you.”

“Ah, won’t that cost you a lot of money again, big brother?”

“No, my family isn’t short on money. And if I don’t spend this money, it’ll just be burned for me in the future.”

Tang Yunle didn’t understand what he meant, but she still nodded obediently.

The first rule of the employee handbook: never contradict a man. As a provider of emotional value to men in the virtual world, you just need to nod obediently.

Suddenly, Tang Yunle’s body stiffened. The chicken piece on her chopsticks “clattered” and fell into her plate, the hot soup splashing onto the corner of her clothes.

If one were to look down, they would find that under the table, a large, cool, and sickly hand was now gently holding a fair, white, and delicate thigh.
