Early in the morning, Lan Shuang had just changed her clothes when she heard someone knocking on the door. She opened it in confusion and saw that it was her "good sister" Lan Bing.
Today is the opening ceremony of the college. The college doesn’t care what you wear on other days, but on this day you must wear the college uniform.
The girls all wore navy blue tops with white shirts, red plaid bow ties, and red plaid skirts that just reached above the knees, with long socks and small leather shoes underneath.
Lan Bing was very thoughtful and added a crystal brooch to her coat, which sparkled and looked delicate without being too flashy.
The first thing Lan Shuang saw when she opened the door was the brooch. Noticing her gaze, Lan Bing touched it and said with a smile, "Are you looking at this? This is a back-to-school gift my mother gave me. If you like it, I'll give you one. However, this style is limited edition. There is only this one in the entire federation. If you want it—"
Before she could finish her Versailles act, Lan Shuang acted as fast as lightning and snatched her brooch away before Lan Bing could react.
Lan Bing: “???”
"What are you doing?" The sudden shock shattered the mask of gentleness on her face, revealing her true, sarcastic face.
Lan Shuang blinked innocently and turned the brooch between her fingers. Lan Bing watched and held her breath, afraid that she would drop the priceless brooch if her hands were not steady.
Only one thing she said just now was true - this brooch was truly unique, the only one in the entire Federation. Her mother had obtained Lan Ping's consent to give it to her, saying that she gave it to her to support the Lan family. She had to return it when she came back in the evening. If she broke it, Lan Ping would definitely punish her.
Seeing her nervous eyes almost glued to the brooch, Lan Shuang laughed, "Didn't my sister say she'd give me one? I've fallen for this one, and since there's no other, why don't you give it to me? You're a few years older than me, so you wouldn't be so unwilling to fulfill my wish, right?"
"You..." Lan Bing's eyes widened in choking.
Who's giving it to you? I'm just showing off. Do you understand what it means to show off? Don't you understand? Or are you doing this on purpose?
She looked at Lan Shuang suspiciously, and Lan Shuang smiled again: "I'm just teasing you. Since I don't want to, forget it, I'll give it back to you. I won't take your things, but don't take mine either. Otherwise, I will be angry with you."
Lan Shuang put the brooch back on her gently, and her tone was as light as a feather, but there was something else behind her words, which made Lan Bing break out in goose bumps.
"Alright." Lan Shuang put on the brooch and patted Lan Bing's shoulder. "It's almost time, let's go."
She took the lead and left. Lan Bing narrowed his eyes as he looked at her back.
Was it an illusion? Why did she feel like there was something odd about Lan Shuang?
No way, what threat could a slum girl with no experience pose to her? With her S+ level soothing agent?
Thinking of what she had done, she curled her lips and felt relieved again. So what if it was S+? The final winner could only be her!
…
On the first day of school, Lan Ping did not show up, but just asked Andre to drive the hovercraft to take them there.
Andre was very attentive to Lan Bing throughout the whole process, but he rolled his eyes at Lan Shuang and ignored her. In his opinion, an envoy with Lan Shuang's personality would get married sooner or later, and she posed no threat to him, so there was no need to please her. Moreover, she made him look bad in front of his idol, and he would remember this grudge against Lan Shuang for the rest of his life.
So after Lan Shuang sat down, he glared at her. When Lan Shuang got off the car, he glared at her again. Lan Shuang turned around and looked at him like that. Andre was caught red-handed before he could even look away.
Andre: “…”
The scene was somewhat awkward.
Lan Shuang didn't take it seriously and asked seriously, "Andre, is there something wrong with your eyes?"
Andre was stunned for a moment, then he got angry: "What nonsense are you talking about? My eyes are fine."
"Really? But I see you're always rolling your eyes upwards, almost rolling them back. Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, it's really creepy. I suggest you go to the hospital. If you're sick, you have to get treatment early. If you delay and it gets worse, you might even have to dig out your eyeballs and replace them with artificial ones."
After saying this, Lan Shuang looked at him with pity and then walked away.
Lan Bing: “…”
Andre: “…”
He pounded the dashboard hard and cursed, then went into a rage of helplessness, causing 0 damage to Lan Shuang.
Lan Bing comforted Andre and then caught up with Lan Shuang. "You shouldn't talk to Andre like that. He's Father's right-hand man. If you offend him, he might whisper something in Father's ear. It won't do you any good. Sister, you better control yourself."
Lan Shuang: “Oh.”
Lan Bing: "Do you know the way? Let me show you the way. It's your first day here, and there's a lot to do. I've been here for two years, and I'm still your senior, so I..."
Lan Shuang silently opened her personal terminal and activated the public speaker function. A gentle female voice immediately rang out, "Now opening the map of the First Federation Academy and connecting to the Smart Academy. Please wait..."
Lan Bing: “…”
What are you doing?
Lan Shuang seemed to see through her confusion and explained with a smile, "The First Federal College has its own intelligent system that can answer all questions for freshmen. It's very convenient. Don't you know that, sister?"
Lan Bing: “…”
I know. So, what you mean is that I am not as convenient as an intelligent system?
Lan Shuang showed through her actions that she was far inferior to the system.
"The system has been connected... Hello, my dear student. I am Mu Yuan, the dean of the First Federation College. I am happy to serve you. What can I help you with now? Navigation or the new student registration process?"
This system was developed by the dean himself when he was bored. All the sounds in it were recorded by him, so they sound very familiar.
Lan Shuang smiled and said, "Thank you, Dean. I want to know the new student registration process."
"Oh~ What a polite and smart child! Now follow my instructions and go to the registration office to collect your student ID, dormitory card, and subsidy card."
As soon as she finished speaking, a map appeared on Lan Shuang's terminal. On it, a stick figure stood there and waved at her.
Lan Shuang couldn't help laughing, "The dean is such an interesting person."
A thick red line of light appeared under the stickman's feet, extending to a short distance away. This was the correct route.
Lan Shuang took a step forward, and the stickman followed suit. Lan Bing was completely ignored. Unwilling to be lonely, she said, "Sister, do you really not want me to help you? Then I'll leave first."
Lan Shuang said decisively: "Oh."
Lan Bing: “…”
This person is so annoying!
