This question might seem simple, but it's actually a trap. Guys with low emotional intelligence might not realize how serious it is.
Most guys would answer straightforwardly, "They're all pretty!"
While that might be okay, girls who ask such questions often want you to choose one.
No matter which girl you pick as the prettiest, you'll end up offending the others.
The worst part is, some girls might even ask you to rank them by looks.
Of course, that's a bit extreme and usually only very foolish girls would ask that.
But Shen Lang isn't afraid; he's got his tricks!
[1: Precise Request: I can't judge based on their clothes. How about you take them off and let me inspect?]
[2: Straightforward Answer: Both are pretty. Looking at the questioner with a hint of disdain: If I hadn't met Su Lexuan, I might have pursued you.]
[3: Slap her and see if she still acts crazy!]
"They're both very pretty."
Shen Lang gave his answer confidently, pausing deliberately and looking up and down at Ye Xinxin with a hint of disdain. "You, well…"
The two roommates exchanged glances, both excited and a bit awkward as they looked at Ye Xinxin.
Shen Lang's assessing gaze didn't seem very friendly. Would he say Ye Xinxin is ugly? That would ruin the friendly atmosphere!
"So, what about me?"
Ye Xinxin raised her eyebrows, gripping her bag tighter and forcing a strained smile as she asked, "How do I measure up?"
"Hehe, if I hadn't met Le Xuan…"
Shen Lang teased with a smile, "I might have gone after you first."
"Ah! How dare you!"
As soon as Shen Lang finished speaking, Su Lexuan angrily tapped him with her little fist. "She's my best friend!!"
"Hey, I was just joking, don't hit me!"
Shen Lang laughed and dodged Su Lexuan's playful attacks, urging, "Alright, let's get in the car and enjoy the air conditioning. It's really hot out here."
Seeing the two of them playfully bickering, the roommates were initially stunned, but then unexpectedly started laughing.
Su Lexuan's boyfriend is really something!
The girls cheerfully got in the car. The slightly awkward atmosphere was lifted by Shen Lang's perfect response, and everyone was in high spirits.
Shen Lang pointed to a red plastic bag next to Su Lexuan, filled with freshly bought drinks. "Le Xuan, share the drinks with your friends."
"Okay."
Su Lexuan, not taking Shen Lang's response too seriously, happily distributed the drinks to her roommates, keeping a room-temperature drink for herself.
"Too bad you can't have iced drinks," Shen Lang said nonchalantly.
"Shen Lang, when did you meet Le Xuan?"
"Shen Lang, where are you from?"
The roommates, holding their cold drinks, eagerly started chatting with Shen Lang.
He's good-looking and has a nice physique, but such guys are a dime a dozen at Zhuhai University.
Girls generally prefer guys with a sense of humor and charm, though they make exceptions for guys who are just plain unattractive.
Even if they're funny, if they're too unattractive, they're just entertainment.
"Hey, can you not see he's driving?"
Seeing her roommates fawning over Shen Lang, Su Lexuan was annoyed. She wished she hadn't brought Shen Lang along to meet them.
"This guy is pretty impressive."
Ye Xinxin, sitting in the back, admired Shen Lang's handsome profile and nodded slightly in approval.
She and Su Lexuan have been best friends for years, so she wouldn't make things difficult for Su Lexuan's boyfriend.
Recently, Su Lexuan has been so focused on Shen Lang that Ye Xinxin felt a bit envious and wanted to make Shen Lang have a bit of a hard time.
But Ye Xinxin didn't expect Shen Lang to handle her tricky question so effortlessly, even turning it around on her.
Ye Xinxin was sure that Shen Lang's level was higher than hers.
...
[Ding! Li Qiaoqiao's favorability towards the host increased by 20 points, now 48 points. Keep it up!]
[Ding! Fang Lili's favorability towards the host increased by 10 points, now 35 points. Keep it up!]
[Ding! Ye Xinxin's favorability towards the host increased by 2 points, now 7 points. Keep it up!]
Shen Lang treated Su Lexuan's roommates to a seafood feast and then took them to the famous Mingzhu Tower in Jianghai City for the afternoon.
By evening, they were ready to head home.
"Shen Lang, let's exchange contact info."
"Yes, Shen Lang, next time we're free, you should take us out again!"
After spending the day with Shen Lang, the roommates envied Su Lexuan's charming and good-looking boyfriend.
Even with Su Lexuan beside them, the roommates wanted to boldly ask for Shen Lang's contact information.
Some even entertained the bold idea of making a move once they had his WeChat!
Shen Lang was naturally enjoying himself, not just surrounded by girls but also the joy of a significant cash reward!
In just one afternoon, thanks to the system's help, Shen Lang earned over 800,000 in rewards from Su Lexuan's roommates.
Except for Ye Xinxin, who had a high resistance and only had 7 points, the other two roommates' favorability skyrocketed.
One girl, Li Qiaoqiao, with a cute hairstyle, had an astonishing favorability of 48 points!
Shen Lang thought if he added her on WeChat and had a chat, he might even get her to the hotel for some deep conversations.
Of course, Shen Lang wouldn't be so tactless.
Girls whose favorability increases rapidly are often quite open.
With a girlfriend like Su Lexuan, why take such low-level risks?
"No way! Shen Lang is my…"
Su Lexuan claimed Shen Lang's arm possessively and proudly declined for him. "Shen Lang's contact info is only for me!"
"Really stingy!"
The two roommates pouted but couldn't do anything since he's her boyfriend.
"Alright, let's take a cab back."
Ye Xinxin stretched lazily. "They finally get some alone time, so let's not interfere."
As soon as Ye Xinxin said this, Su Lexuan cast a grateful glance at her!
What a great bestie!
"Shen Lang, take good care of Le Xuan."
Ye Xinxin seriously warned, "But if you mistreat her, I'll…"
Ye Xinxin made a scissor-cutting gesture, her meaning clear.
After observing Shen Lang for the afternoon, Ye Xinxin thought he was quite a catch, genuinely caring for her best friend.
However, his exceptional chatting skills made Ye Xinxin a bit uneasy.
In just an afternoon, Shen Lang had enchanted the roommates so much that even she almost lost her resolve!
Who knows what kind of life this guy leads outside?
"Though with such a beautiful girlfriend, he probably won't go around flirting with others, right?"
Ye Xinxin thought to herself.
