434 - I Don’t Want to Be Turned Into the Female Protagonist by the System
Chapter 434: Soaring High After completing her day of complicated study tasks, Xiao Xiao, with her twin ponytails and backpack, returned to the dormitory and discovered a new member inside. "Little Xiao!" As soon as Wang Yun entered the dormitory, she engulfed Xiao Xiao in a big bear hug. Ever since Wang Yun taught the little girl how to play games and their adventures in the arcade, Xiao Xiao held Wang Yun in high regard. Although Xiao Xiao had learned from the Pinocchio meeting yesterday that Wang Yun had made a move on her beloved Su Qi, she considered her own standing to be even further back than Wang Yun's. Because of this, she wasn't particularly resistant to Wang Yun's advances. Moreover, Wang Yun's appearance meant Xiao Xiao had another chance to play Pinocchio with her beloved Su Qi! So, facing Wang Yun's embrace, Xiao Xiao returned it with equal enthusiasm. That afternoon, Wang Yun employed her relentless clingy tactics, persistently addressing "An Ning" and "Zi Jin" as sisters, which left Su Qi’s two closest companions utterly exhausted. Outwardly, they still didn’t give Wang Yun a warm reception, but recalling Su Qi's vulnerable state yesterday made them somewhat less resistant internally. As Su Qi, the husband to everyone involved, she focused all her attention on the stock market. Su Qi admitted to herself that it was a bit of an escape tactic. After all, the emotional battlefield among her three companions had raged for the whole afternoon. Considering An Ning, Zi Jin, and Wang Yun—all her companions—each was dear to her. As the one caught in the middle, Su Qi dared not speak or act, simply shivering at the thought. On the other hand, the stock market, usually bullish, showed minor turbulence today. Even though it was a Friday, and everyone knew the market typically pulls back ahead of the weekend, Su Qi found the afternoon's downturn more severe than she'd anticipated. After browsing the forums, Su Qi, drawing from her stock trading knowledge, sensed an undercurrent of conspiracy. Though Su Qi was eager to make money, for prudence's sake, she moved all her funds into the 'Jade Rabbit' stock before the market closed in the afternoon. She believed this stock had accumulated enough potential and was on the verge of a breakout; it was merely a matter of time. Now it was 5 PM, past market closure, and Su Qi examined the stock market trends of the day. The once-thriving stock scene turned a blatant green field today, with more than ten stocks hitting their limit. Su Qi opened the forum to gauge everyone's reactions. Due to the dual factors of market closure and a weekend ahead, investors were eagerly posting their views. Many retail investors expressed fear over today's market drop, finally recalling the dread and disgrace of having their hard-earned money trapped by the stock market. Today's drop not only worried small investors but also led several financially weak firms to reduce their holdings. However, some seasoned investors, holding their teacups, casually typed in the forums, asserting that things would improve while smirking at the sea of green stocks. Su Qi paid little mind to investor sentiments since everyone has their own thoughts and individuality. She was more concerned about her own beloved Wang Yun. She asked, "Sister Yun, aren’t you managing the Compass anymore? The stock market is volatile today!" Su Qi was aware that Wang Yun had already fallen out with Compass. Yet, listening to the remarks Zi Jin made while dismissing Wang Yun this afternoon, she couldn't help but worry. After all, if losses were incurred, Su Qi feared that vice-president Yang Ritian might place the blame on her beloved Wang Yun. Wang Yun waved it off carelessly, saying, "No problem. I already called Yang Ritian this morning. He assured me that he and Yang Zongfan are now handling all company stocks. I even recorded it. So for the next few days, I'll be staying with my dear hubby in the dorm, trading stocks. Isn’t that touching?" Just as Wang Yun finished speaking, her sister and her friend clustered around, eager to expel her from the dorm. Seeing this, Wang Yun clutched her dear husband’s slender waist, yelling, "Big sis is bullying little sis! Xiao Xiao, Panpan, call the police!" Of course, they wouldn’t call the police. At this moment, Gu Panpan, watching Wang Yun causing headaches for the two daunting women, admired her even more. From the beginning of her freshman year, Gu Panpan had a curious admiration for senior Wang Yun. After all, not only was she pretty, but she was also the vice chair of the student council, had a charming way of speaking, and most importantly, had shown kindness to someone just starting college. Now, watching senior Wang Yun make the two fierce women flustered, Gu Panpan only felt her admiration grow even more! Xiao Xiao didn’t quite understand what was happening, but she sensed that the seniors were having a great time. Without thinking much, she dashed forward on her little legs and hugged her beloved Su Qi’s waist, happily pulling her outside, finding the game incredibly fun. The playful tussling continued until 9 PM, when Wang Yun, with her stubborn persistence and feigned frailty, finally earned the opportunity to stay in dorm 507. "Sister Wang Yun, this is the baby chubby dumpling of Su Qi and me, please don’t squash it!" On the bed, Xiao Xiao, with all her sweetness, reminded Wang Yun. Wang Yun, looking at Xiao Xiao’s adorable face, found her irresistibly cute. With the little one nestled cozily in her embrace, Wang Yun couldn't help but regret Xiao Xiao was wearing panda pajamas. Although it couldn't satisfy her tactile obsession, hugging Xiao Xiao was certainly delightful. Because Wang Yun didn’t have to work over the weekend, she lazed around the dorm as usual. An Ning, being a boss, was genuinely busy over the weekend. Thanks to Principal Lin’s special attention, the faculty at the medical college also favored this bright young girl. By 9 o'clock on the weekend morning, the little girl was whisked away by a group of medical professors, alongside senior students, for observational learning at a nearby hospital. The senior students gradually got used to the cute freshman with twin ponytails, transitioning from jealousy over her talent to acceptance. After all, who could dislike a high-IQ yet endearingly clueless little girl? As the president of the student council, Wang Zi Jin also had many tasks to handle. To prevent any wandering eyes on her sister, she brought Su Qi along to the student council. Wang Yun, being the previous deputy chair, couldn’t resist joining her sister and husband at the well-known student council. The council members, seeing the former vice-chair and "Flying Princess" walk through the door, were thrilled, even feeling more motivated in their work. Over this weekend, Su Qi didn’t go empty-handed. Through investigating the official website of 'Jade Rabbit and Jade Stone,' she discovered that the company officially announced news of a union with Zhonghui Jewelry. Watching this news unfold, Su Qi felt that perhaps 'Jade Rabbit' would truly soar as she'd predicted!
