Even so, it didn’t dampen their eagerness to curry favor.
Su Huai watched the scene with a smile, without any intention of stepping forward to get involved.
On the contrary, he directly called out the names of Gao and Er Gao, “You two will take care of all the textbooks for dorm room 511, no problem, right?”
Gao was thrilled, slapping his chest, “Rest assured, Huai, a few sets of textbooks are no problem at all!”
Meanwhile, Zhang Renhui and other boys let out a collective groan, “It’s not fair! Huai, you can’t do this!”
“We’re all brothers here, I’ve also contributed to the party and the country!”
Gao and Er Gao, grinning like they’d dodged a rotten chrysanthemum, smugly clasped their hands, “Sorry about this, we humbly accept!”
“Step aside, all of you move over!”
Then, when the two of them eagerly rushed towards Gu Jiuyue, about to compete in carrying the books, Gu Jiuyue shook her head, and in a calm tone said, “I live in the staff residential area, there’s no need to take textbooks to the dorm… Su Huai, walk me there, will you.”
“Sure.”
Gou Huai nodded and strolled forward.
Gao and Er Gao froze in place, their eyes wide with astonishment, staring at Su Huai as if they had been struck by lightning.
“Huai, you you you you…”
The two nearly two-meter-tall guys looked so aggrieved that their lips trembled and their voices were verging on crying…
Su Huai glanced at them and asked in confusion, “Why are you two still standing there? Go help Tingting and the others with the books!”
“Hahaha!”
Laughter erupted throughout the class, especially from the boys who hadn’t snagged a spot earlier.
“Right, you grabbed the task, so you have to finish it even if you’re crying!”
Huang Mengting also put her hands on her hips, glaring, “What’s the matter, unwilling to help us out?”
Gao quickly mustered a smile, “Not at all, how could I… damn it!”
Their pitiable expressions, as if they had swallowed flies, amused everyone thoroughly.
Well done, class leader!
In the midst of hearty laughter, a hint of amusement also flickered in Gu Jiuyue’s eyes.
She was out of sync with the world but that didn’t mean she couldn’t appreciate the humor in the scene unfolding before her.
The classroom atmosphere was too joyful, and Su Huai was simply…
Hard to describe.
While she covered her mouth with a chuckle, Gou Huai finally received feedback—
[Gu Jiuyue’s favorability rating toward you has surpassed 20 points, congratulations to the host on earning a lottery chance]
YES!
Su Huai could hardly contain his delight.
Before, watching cats and confirming friends had not increased her favorability rating past 20 points, causing Gou Huai’s heart to sink.
This situation meant she had some degree of “favorability barrier.”
What kind of friends have a favorability rating below 20?
Even fair-weather friends exceed that, right?

However, when Chen Nuanhan clashed with her, she didn’t take it out on Su Huai, and the favorability rating never dropped below ten points.
Therefore, Su Huai deduced: Gu Jiuyue’s favorability rating was hard to increase and also hard to decrease, very stable, or one could say, inert.
Her rationality and emotions operated independently.
Rationally, she considered Su Huai a friend, but emotionally there wasn’t much fluctuation, which was odd and hard to handle.
Now, by leveraging the collective environment and group dynamics, he had finally induced a strong emotional response in her, which meant Su Huai’s approach was correct; it just needed more time and more subtleties.
Do I lack time? No.
Do I lack subtleties? No.
Even if the favorability rating only increases by one point at a time, as long as it doesn’t drop, leveling up every half a month isn’t slow.
Having figured out how to interact with her, Su Huai wasted no words, picked up her books, and beckoned her to leave.
“Let’s go. I’ll take your books back to the staff residential area, and then you can go get acquainted with dorm room 511. After that, you can do as you please.”
“Mm.”
Gu Jiuyue nodded slightly, got up quietly, and waved to Ding Yi and the others.
“Goodbye, everyone.”
The classroom then filled with waves of farewell.
It wasn’t just dorm room 511; many girls took the initiative to say goodbye to her, and the boys also joined in the commotion.
Su Huai said with a smile, “Everyone seems to like you. Do you feel it?”
“Mm.” Gu Jiuyue nodded and objectively commented, “The atmosphere here is much friendlier than the private school I attended in high school.”
Su Huai engaged her in casual conversation without any particular aim, “What was the environment like at the private school?”
“Um… those who wanted to make friends were particularly utilitarian, those who didn’t want friends engaged in all sorts of comparisons, genuine friendliness was especially rare, and the truly exceptional people were essentially loners.”
Gu Jiuyue rarely spoke a long sentence, which took Su Huai by surprise.
“You really know how to summarize. Just like that, I feel like I’ve got a clear picture of the social environment at your school.”
Su Huai wasn’t just idly flattering her; he genuinely felt her perspective was broad and accurate.
Ordinary 18-year-old girls answering such a question would typically start with “good or bad.”
Someone a bit smarter might discuss “rich or poor.”
The most mature might consider the “parental social class” when looking at the school’s social dynamics.
But she, summarizing it all from a “mindset” approach, was at a level that her peers would find difficult to understand.
Because she only described the facade, not only is the entire logical chain marked by huge leaps, but the language itself was also too condensed.
For example, her summary that “exceptional individuals were essentially loners” was boiled down to its essence.
In fact, in private schools, those who are particularly exceptional rarely go it alone — whether academically excellent or from prominent families, they are usually surrounded by a crowd of “friends,” forming one small clique after another.
But from Gu Jiuyue’s perspective, those exceptional individuals “rarely have genuine friendliness,” and are essentially characterized by an “independent and self-sufficient” mentality.
