393 - I Don’t Want to Be Turned Into the Female Protagonist by the System
When the initial pleasantries were exchanged, Wang Zijin led her husband and Xiao Xiaoxiao into the student council office. It was Xiao Xiaoxiao's first time in the student council office, and she curiously examined this reputed space. One couldn't deny that the student council office at Su University was quite impressive. There was a large round table for meetings, equipped with a projector and a printer, and the seating wasn’t just ordinary classroom chairs but ergonomic biomechanic seats, promising comfort at first glance. Entering the room, one instantly felt a sense of sophistication and prestige. Since it was the start of the semester, the student council members were all present. Despite a hectic morning attending to various tasks, many had been completed. Due to the long break, many members were catching up, chatting about interesting things with their close peers. When they saw the president enter with two guests—one being a shy little girl—everyone's interest was piqued. After all, such shy creatures were a rarity, not to mention one with such an innocent demeanor. She could be considered a hidden gem! Wang Zijin sat down with her husband and Xiao Xiaoxiao on either side. Once seated, Su Qi removed her sunglasses and mask, feeling significantly more at ease in her wife's domain. Many student council members noted how beautiful the president’s friend was. Upon a closer look, they recognized her as "Fei Ji", someone whose performance last term had left a lasting impression on them. To see her in person today was a surprise. The scene of Wang Zijin, Fei Ji, and the little girl chatting together was a visual treat for the student council members. The trio’s striking appearances were pleasing to the eye. As the others quietly admired the scene, the vice president discreetly adjusted his glasses and put on a sharp little suit, even adding a tie. With gentlemanly poise, he prepared two steaming cups of fragrant milk tea at the water dispenser, offering one each to Wang Zijin and the young beauties on either side. Why wasn’t there a cup for the president? It was quite simple: the vice president had repeatedly approached Wang Zijin to ask for Su Qi’s WeChat number since last semester’s Fei Ji event left a deep impression on him. Just thinking about Su Qi’s bashful expressions and lovely antics melted his heart. Determined to pursue her, he had hit a wall since Wang Zijin, being Su Qi's roommate, didn’t cooperate. After the cultural event ended, Su Qi remained in her dorm, making it awkward for a male to venture into a women's dormitory, leaving him without a chance to get closer to Su Qi. Now that she was here, he wouldn’t waste this golden opportunity. Su Qi, upon receiving the milk tea, politely thanked him and was about to discuss dorm matters with her wife, Zijin, when she noticed the student council member sitting beside her. Observing his prim posture in a small suit and his warm, gentlemanly smile, her expression slightly stiffened. Having once been male herself, Su Qi understood that such gestures often indicated romantic interest. With previous experiences of male confessions, Su Qi could only admit that she was inherently averse to such overtures. The thought of conversing romantically with a man made her skin crawl. Moreover, she already had three wives and a crush on a sweet junior; their soft embrace was much more appealing, wasn’t it? To dash any further notions of the student member, Su Qi preemptively stated, "I just had a meal and I’m not thirsty," pushing the milk tea back towards her wife, Zijin. Wang Zijin, pleased with her husband’s signal, glanced at the crestfallen vice president, an amused gaze in her almond eyes. Beside them, Xiao Xiaoxiao, holding her milk tea with both hands, had taken several sips. Observing her beloved Su sister offer her milk tea to sister Zijin, albeit unsure why, she mimicked the gesture and pushed her half-finished drink over too. Wang Zijin looked curiously at Xiao Xiaoxiao, noting the tiny milk mustache on the young girl’s lips, resembling a sneaky little kitten oblivious to its mischief with wide eyes fixed upon her newly-given glass. Her kittenish charm instantly melted those around her. Wang Zijin found the situation amusing yet adorable, musing on how cute this little girl was. Wanting to drink yet still offering it to her! Using a handkerchief, she delicately wiped Xiao Xiaoxiao’s mouth before handing the two milk teas to her. "Sister isn’t thirsty either; you have them both, little sister." Thus, Xiao Xiaoxiao ended up with both cups of milk tea. Su Qi seized this milk tea commotion to deftly sidestep an impending confession. This little episode also fostered closeness between Xiao Xiaoxiao and Wang Zijin. Even though the vice president sensed Su Qi's rejection, he still tried to acquaint himself with the trio’s conversation. When Xiao Xiaoxiao learned from the vice president that Wang Zijin was the student council president, her admiration gleamed in her gaze, making Wang Zijin reach out and pat her little head. Su Qi felt contented at seeing her wife and soon-to-be junior wife interact warmly. After all, family harmony was crucial. As the pair grew closer, Su Qi lingered, eventually voicing her dormitory problem to her wife, Zijin. After a moment’s thought, Wang Zijin agreed to let Xiao Xiaoxiao join their dorm. Unknown to Su Qi, who figured it was Xiao Xiaoxiao’s cuteness and admiration that swayed her wife, Wang Zijin's reasoning was more practical. By having Xiao Xiaoxiao close in the dorm, under her and her best friend's watch, there was less chance for her husband to act on temptation. If the little darling lived elsewhere, and they were busy, knowing how close the school buildings were, how could she guard against that? With Wang Zijin’s consent, Xiao Xiaoxiao gained the required votes to join Room 507. Her doll-like face flushed with excitement. She looked forward to witnessing Wang Zijin's confident handling of council affairs. Shortly after, her phone rang—it was her father, Xiao Jinyu. Excitedly, she shared the news of being accepted by the sisters into their dorm. Hearing that her father was coming to buy her dorm necessities, Xiao Xiaoxiao could barely contain her joy, squirming on the seat with a cherubic smile that conveyed her excitement to everyone around. Sitting by her, Wang Zijin overheard the call. Rationally, as prospective roommates, meeting the girl’s father would put them at ease. However, Wang Zijin still had some official duties to wrap up. Glancing at the dorm with her best friend still in mind, she gently drew her husband's chair closer and whispered in her ear, "Honey, why don't you accompany little sister to meet her father? And remember, no sneaky moves!" Su Qi nodded, amused by her wife’s perceptiveness, seeing a mirrored worry akin to another wife, Anning. Was she really the type to make a move? Well… maybe. It seemed she was, indeed.
