About the conversation between Fang You and Xia Nuo, the trio of strategists naturally heard everything loud and clear.
After the brief surge of excitement from shipping them as a couple had ended, everyone finally calmed down.
Watching Fang You and Xia Nuo walk out of the clothing store laden with big and small bags of clothes, everyone started sighing and lamenting, a picture of total desolation.
"It feels like today is all about You You’s defeat..."
"But You You likes Nuo Nuo, and it’s a boy’s liking for a girl, which is now common knowledge throughout Hua Country, there’s really no need to show it off!"
Asai Reina reminded everyone, "What we should be striving for is to make Nuo Nuo realize she also likes You You! Like how a girl likes a boy!"
"Wasn’t that our initial plan... to make Nuo Nuo realize she’s no longer just a naive child while she’s buying clothes."
Xu Lingyi mused, "Could it really be... that there are no other options left?"
Asai Reina and Xu Lingyi had a kind of tragic determination, as if ready to fight to the death while their king had already surrendered.
But at that moment, Luo Xian Yu, who seemed to be the least useful, stood up.
"Alright, enough talk. My friends, please hear me out."
Everyone, look closely, the girl who suddenly started speaking in such an affected way is Luo Xian Yu.
Although this child is usually lazy and loves to act cute.
Even after turning 16 and entering high school, she hasn’t made much progress.
But now, it seems she truly wants to improve and strive for something!
Because when she looked up, there was clearly a flame lit in her eyes.
Although it was just a small, flickering flame that felt like it could be snuffed out at any second.
But that was a kind of spirit that Luo Xian Yu had never exhibited in sixteen years, brave and fearless, a daring "come what may," bright and magnificent, supremely tenacious fighting spirit!
Luo Xian Yu, usually idle, now showed an expression of extraordinary determination.
Then, her stomach followed by rumbling along.
"I’m hungry!"
Luo Xian Yu, looking serious, rubbed her stomach, "I better go back quickly and eat the matcha jelly that Nuo Nuo gave me... it’ll melt if I don’t hurry back!"
"Come on!"
Asai Reina and Xu Lingyi almost fainted simultaneously.
"But, there’s more to what I have to say."
Luo Xian Yu continued earnestly, "After I eat Nuo Nuo’s jelly and return to the dormitory, there’s something I have to do, just this one thing."
She added, "Only I can accomplish this task. Not Lingyi, Ling er, san, si, wu, liu, nor Reina can do it."
Asai Reina: "Can you please take that pun and shove it, thanks."
"So what is it that you’re going to do?"
Xu Lingyi muttered, eyes shining with curiosity, "I’m really eager to know!"
"The reason Nuo Nuo has been so confident in You You up until now is because of one issue—"
Luo Xian Yu said seriously, "There’s not a single girl among You You’s acquaintances who’s a match for him, no one to make Nuo Nuo truly exert herself, so she’s never really put in her full effort."
"Everyone likes You You, but You You doesn’t care about them, the reason for it is quite simple, very clear."
"Because in You You’s heart, there’s only room for two girls."
"One is naturally Nuo Nuo herself, but the other girl, without a doubt, is me—Super Yu."
Luo Xian Yu, with thumbs pointed at herself, stated decisively, with clear cut finality, her attitude brimming with pride.
"..."
"Although I’m speechless, you seem to be right..."
Asai Reina could testify to this.
Fang You didn’t grow up with just Xia Nuo.
Luo Xian Yu was also one of them, she followed them ever since they went on a TV show at the age of two and has never been separated from them.
And it was still the same to this day.
Although most of the time Yu acted like a useless little sister or daughter, most of the time Fang You did treat her as a little sister and daughter.
Even for a period of time, Luo Xianyu was able to call Fang You "Daddy," a term that is only used between couples as a term of endearment at certain times, a title even higher than "Master."
"So... what you mean is—"
"I plan to get involved personally, use my charm to attract You You, and make Nuo Nuo really feel threatened!"
"The so-called sense of crisis is to make Nuo Nuo realize: if I don’t make a move, You You will be taken away by someone else."
Luo Xianyu smiled gently, "In that case, Nuo Nuo will definitely start to realize that her feelings for You You have changed without her noticing, and she’ll start to seriously consider her relationship with You You."
"Ah, you mean..."
Xu Lingyi and Asai Reina were momentarily stunned and then showed shocked expressions, "You’re not planning to start pursuing You You, are you?"
"Alright, I’ve made up my mind, so stop trying to convince me otherwise!"
Luo Xianyu covered her face, seemingly conflicted and troubled:
"I know, I know... I understand the consequences and the price of this, it might result in me losing a friend I’ve known for sixteen years, a friend who’s like a mother and daughter to me."
"Although I usually seem childish... you should know that I’m already 16 years old, I’m not a kid anymore."
"I was only able to get into Zhendan Academy through a little backdoor connection from my dad, but I’m actually very smart, and I do really well in literature."
"Even if what I do might make Nuo Nuo dislike me, or even sever ties with me, but."
"As her best friend, as long as I can further Nuo Nuo and You You’s relationship, I am willing to be cut off by Nuo Nuo!"

Such noble resolve!
At this moment, Luo Xianyu felt as if she were amid an intricate chess game.
Although it seemed a lost cause, she still wanted to mend the skies single-handedly, win by just half a point, and emerge as the victor, becoming the most hidden and pivotal character in "Life Winner from Babyhood," changing the originally stagnant situation in one fell swoop.
"Ah, no... Yu, are you sure You You has those kind of feelings for you?"
Asai Reina rubbed her hands as she spoke, "Haven’t you realized that You You has always considered you—"
"NO! I think it’s possible."
Xu Lingyi expressed great interest in Luo Xianyu’s plan: "Yu, Nuo Nuo, and You You are friends who truly grew up together from childhood. I’ve read quite a few novels like this, a lot of times such a trio’s relationship will last very long, and what truly breaks it is a dramatic showdown, but someone has to make the first move."
Xu Lingyi’s expression turned serious: "As long as Yu can carve out the path to this dramatic showdown, watching the one you love being taken away by your best friend must be very painful."
"Isn’t it, can’t you understand human speech! The premise doesn’t even hold up!"
Asai Reina got flustered, she pointed at Xu Lingyi and shouted, "And Xu Lingyi, you’re just in it for the spectacle, aren’t you! Wipe that silly grin off your face!"
"Reina, you should stop struggling, it’s really heartbreaking to see you like this."
Luo Xianyu let out a sigh, patting Asai Reina’s shoulder: "I know you really like You You, and you’ve liked her since childhood, but you should have realized long ago, you were just a toy for Nuo Nuo to tease You You with, You You won’t give you a second glance, at most treating you as a friend."
"No… why did it turn to me again?"
Asai Reina helplessly spread her hands, "It’s got nothing to do with me, I’m fine, I don’t care, ha, what are you talking about, wasn’t that just a childhood crush, I don’t like her at all now... just as a good friend..."

She trailed off, lost in memories.
"Speaking of which, during the fireworks festival that time, You You won me so many prizes with the ring toss… and the star bottle she gave me for my birthday, I’ve kept it all along. Because I gave her a handmade gift before, and she gave me one in return, and there was also the first time I went for the voice actor audition, she called to encourage me, even though Nuo Nuo called first... but I know she must have me in her heart..."
Luo Xianyu and Xu Lingyi exchanged a glance, both clicking their tongues in silent sympathy.
Asai Reina pursed her lips, "And yeah... there’s also that place, I was part of it too... If You You disliked me, she definitely wouldn’t, she wouldn’t have let me be there with you guys that summer, building that, that place... right—"
Asai Reina didn’t finish her sentence before Luo Xianyu hugged her.
Afterward, the 1.68 meters tall Yu held the 1.55 meters tall Reina, who looked like a child in her arms, and started to sob.
This scene caused the nearby Xu Lingyi to sigh repeatedly:
"So this is the Defeated Queen, such fearsome scriptwriting prowess... In the realm of the defeated, she must be unparalleled; it seems my hacking skills are far from sufficient."
After consoling Asai Reina, Luo Xianyu wiped her shoulder, now stained with Reina’s snot and tears, emotionally stirred:
"In conclusion, I, Yu, must do something that contradicts the decisions we made when playing house as mom and dad—"
"Nuo Nuo, if you don’t make a move—"
"Then let me be the first to pursue You You!"
