Study System: I'm a 38-Year-Old Student-Chapter 204 - 150: The Perk of Not Changing Father-in-Law and Mother-in-Law
Shen Yixiao lived in Dormitory Building 18.
A few dozen meters further was Dormitory Building 19 where Shen Qiushan lived.
When Lin Xiamo arrived downstairs, Shen Qiushan hadn’t come down yet.
And with such a beautiful woman like her standing beneath the boys’ dormitory, she naturally became the center of attention for the boys coming in and out.
"Isn’t that Secretary Lin from the Youth League Committee!"
"Yes, that’s her, the most beautiful teacher in our school!"
"It’s such a pity she hasn’t become a star with her looks!"
"Who could have such a big shot like Secretary Lin waiting for them personally downstairs? That’s quite the status!"
"I wonder if Secretary Lin likes younger guys, I think I might have a chance!"
"..."
The boys whispered among themselves, all very curious about why Lin Xiamo, the deputy director of the Youth League Committee, was waiting under the boys’ dormitory.
The mystery was quickly solved when another one of the school’s famous figures, "Old Shen" who makes millions annually by writing web novels, hurriedly walked out of the dormitory building.
He was still wearing his military training clothes, a military green T-shirt on top and camouflage pants on the bottom.
Mixing with a group of eighteen or nineteen-year-old male college students, he didn’t really look out of place.
Of course, this was also because some kids looked a bit mature for their age, obviously in their twenties but seeming more like in their thirties.
And having such "young yet mature" kids has its benefits—they age well!
Don’t be fooled, when they’re eighteen or nineteen they look like they’re in their thirties, but when they’re forty they might still look like they’re in their thirties.
Seeing Shen Qiushan, who seemed a few years younger, Lin Xiamo suddenly felt a bit less confident.
At 31, she used to be 7 years younger than Shen Qiushan, but after a summer "transformation," Shen Qiushan looked just over thirty.
He gave off a vibe of being the same age as Lin Xiamo, but now in his camouflage outfit, Shen Qiushan seemed a bit younger again.
"I was playing cards with three brats upstairs when I got your call and came down right away!"
"What’s up?"
Lin Xiamo coming over around noon naturally made Shen Qiushan instinctively think she had something for him.
"I’ve brought you, Xiaoxiao, and Yanran a few bottles of sunscreen. The sun’s been brutal lately."
Lin Xiamo handed over the prepared sunscreen to Shen Qiushan. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂
"You’re always so thoughtful!"
"But, I don’t know how to use this stuff."
Shen Qiushan looked at the sunscreen in his hand, showing a pained expression.
"Just apply it evenly on your face."
"Don’t forget your neck and arms too!" Lin Xiamo advised.
"OK!"
Shen Qiushan made an OK gesture with his hand and smiled gratefully, "Momo, you’re always so attentive!"
As they were chatting, Shen Qiushan’s phone suddenly rang in his pocket. He took it out and glanced at it; the caller ID read "Teacher Liu."
"Director Liu, what’s up?"
Shen Qiushan didn’t avoid Lin Xiamo and pressed the answer button.
Having heard Shen Qiushan’s phone ring, Lin Xiamo was initially planning to return to the office to not interrupt his call.
But the words "Director Liu" made her, naturally suspicious, linger.
"Old Shen, didn’t you return to the faculty dorm?"
On the phone, Liu Qingwu asked.
"No, I’m at the boys’ dormitory."
"Can you come to the faculty dorm? There’s something I need to give you, and it’s not convenient for me to bring it over."
"Alright, that’s fine."
Yesterday, when buying a set of bedding, Shen Qiushan also bought a few pairs of pure cotton underwear. Just the perfect opportunity to put on a fresh pair, as the one from military training was soaked in sweat.
"See you in a bit~"
Liu Qingwu cheerfully replied, then hung up the phone.
"Teacher Liu?"
Lin Xiamo almost heard the entire conversation and asked Shen Qiushan knowingly, though the beautiful eyes that shone like stars carried a hint of coldness.
The cool gaze also held an appraisal.
The shift in her expression suddenly made Shen Qiushan feel a guilty conscience, like someone caught cheating!
No, this isn’t right!
Shen Qiushan gathered his thoughts and replied nonchalantly, "Teacher Liu might have some tasks for me related to our class."
"She and Old Liu asked me to temporarily serve as class president."
Though he quickly adjusted his mindset, Shen Qiushan subconsciously started explaining.
"Going to the faculty dorm?"
Lin Xiamo followed up.
"Yes."
Shen Qiushan nodded.
"Perfect timing, I need to head back too."
Lin Xiamo decided to change her plans on the spot, wanting to see what Liu Qingwu was up to.
Shen Qiushan drove over and soon parked below the faculty dormitory building.
Liu Qingwu was already waiting at the entrance. Seeing Shen Qiushan’s car, she smiled and waved gleefully.
However, when she saw Lin Xiamo in the passenger seat, her smile faded slightly.
Getting out of the car, Shen Qiushan straightforwardly asked, "Director Liu, what’s going on?"
"I’ll give you a bottle of sunscreen, it’s great!"
Liu Qingwu glanced at Lin Xiamo and still took out the prepared sunscreen.
"Uh??"
Looking at the sunscreen handed to him, Shen Qiushan was dumbfounded.
He instinctively looked at Lin Xiamo, thinking: Did you two plan this?
How did you both end up giving me sunscreen?
"Don’t underestimate this stuff; it’s really useful!"
"Otherwise, after half a month of military training, you’ll definitely get sunburned."
Unaware that Lin Xiamo had already given a bottle of sunscreen, Liu Qingwu earnestly explained.
"Thanks, Director Liu!"
Appreciating the kind gesture, Shen Qiushan accepted the sunscreen.
But as he held the sunscreen, he felt a strong chill.
As a kid watching "Saint Seiya," Shen Qiushan always thought the concept of sensing a Little Universe was absurd.
Now, he finally believed in the existence of a Little Universe!
At this moment, Lin Xiamo seemed to embody her own "Little Universe"!
And it was of the extreme cold variety!
Mashaka?
Aquarius Kamui!!
As Shen Qiushan was lost in his thoughts, Lin Xiamo had already walked into the faculty dormitory without saying a word.
It was clear that this sister-in-law was a bit upset.
The sound of her high heels hitting the ground was louder than usual.
"Is Sister Lin angry?"
Watching Lin Xiamo’s distant figure, Liu Qingwu asked with a hint of sarcasm.
Her fox-like eyes were full of innocence.
And this time, she didn’t call Lin Xiamo "Secretary Lin," but rather "Sister Lin."
It seemed more intimate, but in fact, she was reminding Shen Qiushan that the other party was much older than herself.
"What is she angry about!"
Shen Qiushan shook his head, although he also felt that his relationship with Lin Xiamo was becoming increasingly subtle.
But he really didn’t dare to think much, after all, their situation was quite complicated. If they were to be together, there were too many obstacles to overcome.
But if you insist on saying there are advantages, it’s not without them.
In fact, even more so than with other women!
The first is the issue of acceptance by the two children.
It should be quite difficult for Shen Yanran and Shen Yixiao to accept a stranger as their mother.
And even if they could accept her, the relationship probably wouldn’t be too good.
But if this stepmother is Lin Xiamo, it would avoid this problem!
Moreover, Shen Qiushan wouldn’t need to change his in-laws either!
A major convenience.
However, if Shen Qiushan were really to be with Lin Xiamo.
Director Lin might be furious enough to want to kill him, and the hard-won relationship would also instantly collapse!
Actually, if Lin Moxuan could vent all his anger, it would be fine. Shen Qiushan could just bear it, he surely wouldn’t actually kill him!
But Shen Qiushan was really worried that his father-in-law might be so enraged that he’d have a heart attack!!
Lin Moxuan had a weak heart; this possibility couldn’t be ruled out.
If that really happened, it would be impossible to clean up the mess!
"Old Shen, do you know how to use sunscreen?"
At this moment, Liu Qingwu asked again.
"No, I don’t."
Shen Qiushan shook his head instinctively.
"Then let me teach you."
Liu Qingwu took out a bottle of sunscreen from her bag, then casually grabbed Shen Qiushan’s arm, squeezed some sunscreen on it, and gently applied it with her fingertips.
"Spread it evenly, covering all the skin, like this, gently pushing it out. Be careful not to rub it back and forth to avoid damaging the sunscreen film..."
"By the way, it’s best to apply sunscreen 15 to 30 minutes before going out, giving the skin enough time to form an even protective film. During afternoon military training, remember to reapply, and if you sweat a lot, reapply it too..."
While demonstrating how to apply sunscreen, Liu Qingwu explained very seriously, showing her professionalism.
Ding!
Learned new knowledge: Sunscreen application
Reward: A Basic Blind Box
(Note: Basic Blind Boxes can contain items or cash worth 1 to 1,000,000)
As Shen Qiushan was enjoying the sunscreen application service, the long-lost system notification suddenly rang.
Uh?
Shen Qiushan was stunned for a moment, then a burst of joy followed.
Recently, the system notifications had been silent.
He thought he had been abandoned by the system!
Reflecting, Shen Qiushan remembered the rewards for learning new knowledge had existed "since ancient times."
However, since learning "skincare knowledge" from Luo Meimei and snatching a Basic Blind Box, this reward hadn’t appeared again.
Shen Qiushan originally planned to, when having time in college, learn more about other subjects.
This time, a piece of sunscreen application knowledge let him obtain another Basic Blind Box.
Shen Qiushan silently reviewed these experiences again.
The only common point is that the person imparting the knowledge explains very thoroughly!
That is to say, if the person isn’t detailed or withholds information while imparting knowledge, there’s a high chance the reward won’t trigger.
At that time, Luo Meimei wanted to recommend a beauty card, so naturally, she spoke very comprehensively, with nothing held back.
Now, Liu Qingwu also had her little intentions, the more detailed her explanation, the more skin contact time she could have with Shen Qiushan.
How to heat up the relationship?
How to make a man get carried away?
The best method is to create some physical contact, teasing the other party.
As long as he takes the bait.
Then it would be easy to handle going forward!
Liu Qingwu seemed to be helping Shen Qiushan apply sunscreen, but she was actually "fishing"!
She could take the initiative to tease.
But the last thin paper wall must not be pierced by her.
Letting Shen Qiushan actively seek a breakthrough is a better way to set conditions and handle him!
Inside the faculty dormitory building.
Lin Xiamo didn’t go upstairs directly but stood by a window where she could see the two of them.
Thus, she witnessed the entire process of Liu Qingwu applying sunscreen to Shen Qiushan with her own eyes.
This Vice Secretary Lin had her "Little Universe" flare up again and couldn’t help but curse: Vixen!
Having mixed within the system for so many years, Lin Xiamo still had a very accurate sight in judging people, having met many different kinds of people.
At their first meeting, she felt that Liu Qingwu wasn’t as innocent as an intern!
And indeed, just three days into the school term, she had turned Shen Qiushan into a "wide-mouthed bass"!
Why say so!
Just look at the smile on that old man’s face!
He’s enjoying it!
And what Lin Xiamo didn’t know was that the bright smile on Shen Qiushan’s face wasn’t due to Liu Qingwu applying sunscreen.
It was because of the Basic Blind Box reward from the system.
Just now.
Shen Qiushan got a classic ladies’ watch, the Patek Philippe 5072R, from the Basic Blind Box!
Worth 960,000!
Lin Xiamo’s birthday is on September 19th, just half a month away.
Originally, Shen Qiushan was pondering what grand gift to give this sister-in-law for her birthday.
Now, it’s all set without him making an effort to pick, the system arranged it for him!
A 960,000 Patek Philippe!
Would Sister-in-law Lin Xiamo like it?
