The girlfriend went out to play all day and only returned home at night, collapsing onto the bed and saying she was so tired.
If it weren't for Qin Yue having learned to adjust her mindset, she would have been frustrated again. In comparison, saying she wasn't feeling well was just a minor issue.
Qin Yue turned her head to look; Bai Ningning had already closed her eyes and was making comfortable snoring sounds.
Falling asleep so quickly, she must indeed be very tired.
Qin Yue let out a light sigh and picked up her phone to continue chatting with her online friend.
[00]: Tomorrow, I must make her stay!
[YN]: Let's not talk about tomorrow night yet; how do you plan to spend the day?
[00]: But didn't you say the most important part is at night?
Qin Yue helplessly rubbed her forehead.
This Teacher 00 is good at almost everything and knows a lot, but when it comes to handling girls, she seems to lose her wits, as if her intelligence has dropped a level.
Maybe it's because she's a bit timid in front of the girl she likes. Wasn't she once like that too?
For a moment, Qin Yue felt a sense of sympathy and wanted to help her succeed even more.
[YN]: Although the night is important, it's not night yet. If you keep thinking about the night, you'll be distracted during the day and seem unnatural.
[00]: Got it, just like you always emphasize, be natural.
Right, that's the way to go.
[YN]: Since you two are on a date, find an opportunity to be alone in a place where no one is around...
[00]: Actually, it's a group activity.
[YN]: ?
What? A date is still a group activity? Teacher 00, you're playing a bit wild.
Qin Yue was shocked.
[00]: It's not what you think; it really is a group activity.
[00]: If it weren't, how could I invite her out when she already has girlfriend?
Teacher 00's words were filled with bitterness.
Qin Yue thought for a moment and continued.
[YN]: Then you need to find a way to create opportunities for alone time, and then just go with the flow.
[00]: Understood, go with the flow and get what I want in the most natural way.
[YN]: If you can take advantage, take advantage; if you can get benefits, get benefits. Just say it directly; we're chatting privately, and no one else can see.
[00]: ...
Others might be shy, but Teacher 00 is a blossoming girl, not thick-skinned enough to say it directly.
Qin Yue, as someone who has been through it, didn't mind at all and spoke straightforwardly.
[YN]: Enjoy the day, and keep her around at night; that's when the real fun begins.
[00]: Okay!
But then the problem arises; the key point is whether he can keep her overnight. Qin Yue was worried for her friend and pulled out all her experience and insights as a successful person.
[YN]: Actually, it's simple; the core secret is three words—don't worry.
[00]: Oh?
[YN]: Don't worry about anything, just let her stay. You must be very firm; even if you can't find a reason right away, it's okay. Just keep her there and think of ways to coax her after midnight.
Wasn't that how she did it too? Just don't worry about anything, get her into the bedroom first, and then figure it out after sleeping.
[00]: Got it, I will try my best!
[YN]: Good luck, I'm waiting for your good news tomorrow.
Putting down her phone, the time was about right. Qin Yue turned off the light and lay down beside her. Listening to the girl's breathing next to her, she still felt a bit annoyed, so she reached out and rubbed her pillow.
"Mm," Bai Ningning murmured in her sleep, "Good night."
Alright, good night.
Zzzzz
Monday morning arrived, and if it were any other time, it would definitely be a day of great suffering. But today is different; today is the first day of a short holiday.
The Xicheng Grand Square isn't strictly a scenic area, but it usually attracts many visitors on holidays. However, today, the entire square has been booked for the largest ACG (Anime, Comic, and Games) event in Xicheng.
Bai Ningning found Lingyin at the school gate. When Lingyin saw the large bag Bai Ningning was holding, she was slightly taken aback.
"Aren't you changing clothes?"
"No, they're all packed inside," Bai Ningning blinked, "I haven't touched them since I brought them back yesterday."
Lingyin immediately felt a bit of a headache: "But if you don't change clothes, there won't be a place to change at the venue."
"I was supposed to change at home?" Bai Ningning puffed up her cheeks. "I didn't know that."
She had been to a few comic conventions before, but she always went alone, quietly hiding in a corner to watch the various cosplayers. There were no cameras, and she didn't cosplay, but just watching everyone made her very happy.
So today is actually her first time cosplaying.
Ahem, those few times playing with her older sister at home don't count.
"Yes, you need to change before going," Lingyin said.
Bai Ningning turned to look back in the direction they came from: "But my home is a bit far, and I have to take the subway to the square. If I change first..."
She felt a bit embarrassed.
Shuiyue Tingyuan is very close to the school, but still a bit far from the square.
Lingyin looked up at the sky; it was still quite early, and they had plenty of time. After thinking for a moment, she made a quick decision: "Let's go to my house."
Bai Ningning was taken aback: "What?"
"Let's go to my house; it's near the square," Lingyin grabbed her bag of clothes, "Come on, let's go now."
"…Oh."
Although it was quite sudden, it was still a good solution, so Bai Ningning went along with her.
On the subway, since it was heading to the square, there were cosplayers everywhere in their costumes. Seeing these "strange outfits," Bai Ningning felt a bit more relaxed.
Next to her, Lingyin was getting nervous.
Just now, she was focused on solving the problem, but once she sat down on the subway and calmed down, she suddenly realized something.
Soon, she would be alone with Bai Ningning, right?
And it would be at her house!
Heaven bear witness, she hadn't thought about this at all. But in the blink of an eye, she and her junior were sitting on the subway heading to her home.
Could this be what YN meant by "Going with the flow, where everything happens without words"?
"President, your house is next to the square," Bai Ningning chatted casually.
She hadn't been to Xicheng Grand Square many times, but she had a deep impression of it because the surrounding area was filled with high-end residences, looking particularly grand.
"Yes, yes," Lingyin hadn't fully regained her composure and was a bit incoherent, "My house, my house is quite big, and no one is there, so you can play around... I mean, you can change casually, and if you get tired from changing, you can just sleep... No, if you get tired from changing, you can take a break, and it's okay to go a little later."
Bai Ningning tilted her head, feeling confused.
How could changing clothes be tiring? They weren't doing anything else; President Lingyin was talking strangely.
Time on the subway passed quickly, and before long, they arrived at their stop. Lingyin held the shopping bag in one hand and pulled Bai Ningning with the other, getting off and walking outside.
