From BOSS to Canon Fodder: She is Currently Out of Service!

Chapter 182: Chapter 90: Name Suggestion_2

If he had known, K3 certainly wouldn’t have said that—it sounds kind of like hinting at others to send gifts.

Xu Na, knowing Su Jiameng’s style, thought she wouldn’t pick an evening gown for a birthday party and had someone secretly prepare one for her in advance. However, when she saw the gift box containing the dress that Su Jiameng took out, her expression was a bit nuanced, ”It’s rare for Xiao Meng to... buy a dress like this... Suddenly, I’m so looking forward to it. If Xiao Meng wears it, it will definitely suit her perfectly!”

Su Jiameng, in her three lifetimes, had only ever attended friends’ wedding banquets or drinking gatherings with relatives and friends. Wearing an evening gown to such a fancy party was an entirely new experience for her.

Of course, she hadn’t lacked opportunities to attend such events. Not to mention, just after her promotion to Lieutenant General, there was a celebration ball.

But at that time, she had been disfigured and had many terrifying scars on her body. How could she wear those evening gowns that casually exposed shoulders or thighs? If she dared to wear them, it would ruin the mood for others, so in the end, she wisely found an excuse to leave and only showed up to say a few words when the party was about to end... the misery of it all is something outsiders wouldn’t understand.

Su Jiameng was torn between her own prepared dress and the one Xu Na prepared. In the end, Lucy made the final decision, choosing a goose-yellow, strapless evening gown prepared by Xu Na, which could highlight the current loli state of Su Jiameng and conceal her flaws... like a flat chest or so. Though simple in style, it suited her perfectly.

”Wait, it seems like something’s missing.” Lucy thought for a moment, then took her own necklace off and put it on her, saying, ”Mm, this looks better. Now let’s fix your hair a bit. Xiao Meng has great skin, and coupled with her youth, it’s a time full of vitality. She doesn’t need heavy makeup, as it would look garish. A light makeup look suits her better...”

After finishing all this, she even put on high heels for the first time since her first lifetime! She could say she could pilot the toughest, strongest mecha, yet she couldn’t handle a mere pair of high heels at all? This was a cruel joke!

Although it was just a birthday party for a student from Xilena First Affiliated School, this person’s identity was not simple, and the party carried a certain significance, so it couldn’t be taken lightly. Some people who wanted to curry favor with him or please the Qin Family were flocking to the event. Others, who were stuck on other planets and couldn’t make it, could only send a birthday gift through someone else.

Qin Mo’s birthday party was held in a mansion not far from the Advanced Department of Xilena First Affiliated School. It’s said this property was bought for him by the Qin Family, and K3 was free to use it however he wanted, even if it was just to burn it for fun.

Qin Chou had been tricked by Zhang Yiqi. Despite having money to his name, he was living a rough life, eating cafeteria nutrition meals every day and losing weight—he looked super pitiful. Recently, with his nephew’s birthday approaching, he, as an uncle, couldn’t not make a gesture. But with Zhang Yiqi eyeing him like a hawk, he didn’t dare reveal too much...

In the end, he could only miserably run to Liang Yan for help, asking her to keep her man under control so he wouldn’t be released to bite anyone.

”You’re the one in a love-hate relationship with him as the official couple pairing, whereas I’m at most a spectator watching your bromance unfold. Why ask me instead of him?” Liang Yan knew this guy was secretly betting that Zhang Yiqi would lose.

Her childhood sweetheart was someone she alone could bully, even imagining all day long that he had some bromantic tension with Qin Chou—that was her right alone. But if Qin Chou bullied him, that was annoying. Her childhood sweetheart was good in every way, and even if they had big disputes over whether he was straight, those were internal conflicts. But Qin Chou making bets to bully Zhang Yiqi was an external threat.

In critical moments, they had to unite against outsiders, so she definitely didn’t want Qin Chou to easily escape his current unlucky situation.

Qin Chou could only secretly cry his own tears. Of course, on the eve of the birthday, Liang Yan and her childhood sweetheart finally let Qin Chou off the hook, so he could happily give his nephew a red envelope.

”What an eyesore...” Qin Chou really deserved a beating; letting him off so easily left Liang Yan a bit unsatisfied.

”It’s okay, there will be opportunities in the future.” Zhang Yiqi raised his hand to pat the top of her head, realizing it seemed like his childhood plum had stopped growing long ago, while he continued to grow taller. Now, with a slight stretch of his hand, he could feel her forehead against his chest.

”Yeah, settle the scores later!” Liang Yan raised her fist resolutely, but that resolve fell to pieces when she received a birthday gift sent by her younger brother... What to do, hugging the doll and rolling on the couch, she suddenly felt the image of her childhood sweetheart and Qin Chou holding hands was incredibly beautiful! Bromance was indeed the way to go!

Zhang Yiqi: ”...” Qin Chou, you’re done for!

Innocent and bewildered Qin Chou: ”...”

Su Jiameng’s escort to the party was Xu Lei, whom Xu Na found by asking a classmate. Watching his little sister smile so warmly with another guy as her older brother, Xu Lei felt a bit depressed. Because the Qin Family wasn’t hosting the party, it didn’t invite any social elites, mostly students from Xilena First Affiliated School or friends personally invited by Qin Mo.

Even so, one could vaguely discern this group of students’ future glorious paths through high society. (To be continued.
