Chapter 26: Senior Sister, I Want to Play With Your Legs for a Year

“What a pity.”

Mu Chuxian said with a sigh, her tone faint and distant.

“Junior, she’s just not from the same world as you. Better to let it go.”

“I helped you cut off a doomed relationship—hope you don’t blame me?”

Faced with Mu Chuxian’s melancholy words, Su Nan didn’t even bother pretending to be moved.

Even if he was, he certainly wouldn’t admit it.

Thud!

Next, she casually lifted the now-unconscious streamer girl from Su Nan’s arms and tossed her onto the cold ground like a sack of potatoes.

“Oops, slipped!”

Mu Chuxian stuck out her tongue playfully, pretending to act cute.

Su Nan was speechless.

‘Senior sister, your dignity is all over the floor.’

***

After everything was over, Su Nan and Mu Chuxian walked along a deserted street.

Under the silver moonlight, her face glowed with a soft radiance.

Her eyes shimmered like stars, and her delicate features made her look like a goddess descending in the night.

Looking at her serene and ethereal beauty, Su Nan’s heart skipped slightly.

At this moment, Mu Chuxian seemed like she didn’t belong to this world—graceful and distant, like the moon in the heavens.

“Junior.”

Mu Chuxian stopped under the moonlight and gave a divine smile.

“You are… my destined one.”

“You’re naturally gifted and kindhearted. Despite your stunning looks and the endless admiration you receive, you stay grounded, unfazed by temptation—an elegant gentleman, warm as jade.”

“I’ll be counting on you in the future~!”

Hearing such sincere praise, Su Nan couldn’t help but nod slightly in appreciation.

No one had ever praised him like this before—especially not someone as beautiful and powerful as the Ghost Empress herself.

If it had been anyone else, they would’ve floated off the ground by now, their ego inflated beyond saving.

But Su Nan?

He was a steel-willed straight man with a face of an immortal prince.

Heart-throbbing? Doesn’t exist!

He asked seriously:

“Senior sister, let’s not change the subject.”

“Our deal from earlier—your black silk-clad legs are mine for the next year.”

“Hmm? What do you mean, mine?”

Mu Chuxian tilted her head, pretending not to understand.

Before Su Nan could say more, she quickly cut in:

“Oh no, it’s already so late. Girls shouldn’t be wandering at night—I better head home!”

And before he could stop her, Mu Chuxian vanished like a ghost.

So fast that even Su Nan stood there dumbfounded.

The atmosphere had been so perfect just now, and she’d clearly agreed to his one-year leg-playing request!

He’d been tricked again!

***

“Friendly Reminder!”

“This is a real, important reminder!”

“Detected: target character’s affection level toward the host has significantly increased!”

“Please keep up the good work and aim for the big prize!”

“Completing missions will earn system rewards and push you to the pinnacle of life!”

“This system is the most honest in the world—we never scam or lie!”

“Confess now, earn huge rewards!”

“Confess once—rewards beyond your imagination!”

“Confess to beauty—no losses, no regrets!”

“Seize your chance, confess to become stronger, rise to the peak of life!”

“This system—”

The system’s speech speed increased dramatically.

Su Nan only caught the first two lines.

The rest were a blur of enthusiastic advertisements delivered in mere seconds.

Clearly, after being silenced by Su Nan several times, the system had learned its lesson and began aggressively pushing its agenda… at lightning speed.

But as usual, Su Nan was unimpressed.

Even with his dazzling good looks, he was a young man of principle!

Becoming a professional “kept man”?

That was beneath him!

By the time Su Nan returned to his villa, it was deep into the night.

The exhausting battle, especially the mental chess match with his senior sister, had worn him out.

Before long, he collapsed face-first onto the couch and fell fast asleep.

***

The next morning.

His phone buzzed noisily, dragging him from a foggy slumber.

He glanced at it—past 10 a.m.

“Crap!”

Su Nan jumped up and bolted out the door toward the academy.

His phone was flooded with messages asking about his whereabouts.

Most were concerned classmates… but not Yang Ningbing, their teacher.

“Late on the second day of class? Are you mocking me as a teacher?!”

Su Nan sprinted into the classroom just in time—and thankfully, Yang Ningbing hadn’t arrived yet.

He let out a long sigh of relief.

“Su Nan, what happened to you?”

Tu Suya glanced at his exhausted look, a playful smirk on her lips.

“Just one meal last night, and it drained you that bad?”

Su Nan shot her a tired look. No energy for comebacks.

Even with his strong physique, the rush across campus had left him gasping.

Just then, Yang Ningbing entered—long legs wrapped in sleek black tights, black high heels clicking sharply.

Her upper body was hugged tightly by a white blouse, stretched slightly at the chest, and her piercing eyes made Su Nan feel like a criminal under interrogation.

He tried to compose himself.

Then—

“Today is still combat training. One session in the morning, another in the afternoon.”

“Pick your own teammates and operate the simulator yourselves. I’ve got other matters—won’t be overseeing you.”

And with that, Yang Ningbing left, leaving the four students staring at one another.

Other teachers usually started drills at 6 a.m., squeezing every drop of potential from their students.

Theory in the morning, combat in the afternoon.

But their beautiful teacher?

Day two, and it was already… self-study?

“…Is it just me, or did our teacher just set us loose?”

Luo Feixuan muttered behind him.

“Alright, stop it.”

Mu Qing said calmly…

“This is a sign of trust. Let’s go.”

***

Su Nan, unsurprisingly, wasn’t allowed to participate in the training.

The three girls entered the training barrier to challenge Ghost Street again, while Su Nan sat at the control panel—bored and sighing.

‘I wanna train too!’

‘Just because the ghosts are scared of me doesn’t mean you have to bench me!’

More than half an hour later, the three girls emerged from the barrier.

They’d clearly improved—no major injuries this time.

“Morning and afternoon sessions, huh? Feels like it’s not enough.”

Tu Suya winked at Mu Qing, then turned her bright smile toward Su Nan.
