Chapter 46: Official Announcement

A Righteous Defense

“Intimate? What’s intimate? We’re a couple!” Su Keke declared boldly. “The dating tasks are clear. Even if we don’t do these things now, Officer Yan will force us later. Better practice now than fumble when it counts.”

Within two weeks: hold hands.

Within one month: hug.

Within two months: kiss.

Within three months: bathe together.

Within six months: share a bed…

“Wait, none of these say you should… cough, feed me that.” Su Keke’s long legs pinned him tightly, like a facehugger. Lin Lu twisted his head, gasping for air.

A Teasing Retort

Still blushing, Su Keke argued, “Aren’t these all for that final step in six months? Don’t tell me you don’t know that stuff needs foreplay to feel good. This is foreplay. Otherwise, how’d you get in the mood? Heh, little virgin boy, still need your big sister to teach you. So lame…”

Branded a “virgin boy,” Lin Lu flushed, retorting, “I-I know about foreplay! But what if just looking at you gets me going? No need for it then, right?”

He regretted it instantly—self-sabotage.

A Flustered Reaction

As expected, Su Keke shoved him back a half-step, shocked. “You are a pervert! So when we talk, you’re always staring at my… my…”

But she quickly calmed, brushing her golden hair behind her ear, smirking through her embarrassment. “Well, it’s understandable. A pitiful virgin like you can’t resist my charm.”

She even felt smug. Hmph, you used to trip over yourself staring at me. Now I’ll make you swoon—let’s see you chase other girls!

A Childish Past

Thinking back, Su Keke found the old Lin Lu almost cute, like a kid. He could’ve done anything to them but only left them with slobber, never truly claiming them. What kind of “bully” was that?

Not that Lin Lu “couldn’t.” At his peak curiosity about girls, they’d sit together, and he’d suddenly be unable to stand… But too shy to ask his girlfriends for help, he’d blush, hide, and cover up, as if it were shameful.

Then he’d make excuses to slip away or hit the bathroom. Su Keke thought he was sneaking off for something naughty, but no—he was just soaking in cold water to cool off…

Choosing cold water over his girlfriends’ help—not even simpler solutions. He cared so much about his image, suffering for pride!

Recalling it, Su Keke stifled a laugh.

A Playful Jab

Her mocking smirk didn’t escape Lin Lu. Putting on the pink pajamas, he huffed, “Fine, I’m a virgin boy, but a certain big star, two years older, isn’t she a virgin girl too?”

Her agent, Sister Wang, said Su Keke hadn’t dated since entering the entertainment world in college. Lin Lu figured she was all talk.

But Su Keke tilted her neck like a proud swan. “I’m a girl! Being pure is praised—clean and self-respecting. But you, virgin boy? People will just laugh, heh heh!”

A Generous Offer

Lin Lu wilted like a sad radish. Su Keke leaned closer, magnanimously saying, “So listen to me. Behave, and you’ll get more rewards. Maybe if I’m in a good mood, I’ll take pity and… you might shed that virgin status a few months early…”

He eyed her suspiciously. “Didn’t you just say no penetrative rewards, period? Unless… you want it too?”

A Fiery Denial

Her sensitive nerve struck, Su Keke shot upright, flushed and furious. “Me, want it?! Never! I’m just thinking of the inevitable in six months and pitying you in your… needy phase. I’m bending principles so you don’t go out, desperate, coming back with some filthy stench, dirtying my bed…”

What a kind Senior Keke…

Lin Lu wasn’t sure if she’d manipulated him. She’d demeaned him to nothing, yet he still saw her glowing with sisterly compassion, offering herself to her junior…

A Sudden Task

As he moved to lie down, Su Keke yanked him up. “Wait, don’t sleep. Take a photo with me first.”

“I just told you to behave!”

“Alright, alright, I’m good. Super good…”

“That’s more like it…”

A Public Declaration

Su Keke hummed, positioning Lin Lu against the headboard. She nestled into his arms, raising her phone for a selfie. “We’re going official tonight. Post a pic.”

“Isn’t your Weibo run by your company?”

“It is, but Sister Wang gave me the green light to post this myself… Quick, show a blissful, smitten smile, like you’re thrilled to be assigned to me, with a touch of doting.”

“I can’t fake something that insincere…”

“Lin. Lu!”

He instantly flashed the required expression.

“Put your arm around my shoulder, idiot!”

He complied.

A Picture-Perfect Moment

Su Keke beamed at the camera, the two looking like a passionately in-love couple, as if they’d just been glued together.

After snapping, she stayed in his arms, editing the photo. Besides standard face touch-ups, she blurred below her collarbone. Her sheer nightgown revealed her cute navel and…

Lin Lu averted his eyes, fearing a “pervert” label. Girls were hypersensitive to stares.

But a blunt thought nagged: with just them at home, knowing they’d share a bed, she wore something so sheer and revealing—wasn’t that intentional?

The Final Post

“Done. Give me your Weibo account. I’m tagging you.”

“I barely use Weibo.”

“Perfect. No embarrassing comment history to dig up.”

She tagged him, posting the bed selfie with a caption:
