Over the next few days, Bai Sha often spent intimate time with her sister after work, while Zhou Haochen gradually grew close to his brother-in-law.
During this period, the rain briefly stopped, yet they still did not go hiking, opting instead to take the children for a stroll in the riverside park.
On their final day, after treating her sister and brother-in-law to a meal, the trio returned to S City, for December was drawing to a close, and a certain individual was due back at work.

Inside the livestream channel of Zka, the S7 champion support.
“Is that Brother Bai on the opposing AD?”
Audience comments:
“Yes, yes, it is!”
“Support the streamer in punishing those who play with girls!”
“It really is him, he’s streaming.”
Zka switched screens to Fox’s livestream, his eyes widening in surprise. “How has Brother Bai changed so much? Has he really grown his hair this long?”
The screen was blurry, yet the face was distinct. But why did this long-haired Fox look a little… effeminate?
Having played together as the championship bot lane duo for three years, they were quite familiar with Bai Sha, so this transformation seemed far too drastic. She was practically a girl.
Bai Sha was livestreaming from the guest room today.
Reminded by the comments, she also realized that Zka was her opponent.
“Ah, little Ka! Then this streamer will have to give it her absolute best.”
“Streamer, streamer, Big Ka is asking why you grew your hair long?”
“Big Ka says you’ve changed a lot!”
“Streamer, he says you’re effeminate!”
“Big Ka is asking why you didn’t use Flash in S9?”
The comments section was a chaotic mix of all sorts of remarks.
Bai Sha was vexed; this was precisely why she avoided meeting her old teammates. It was far too awkward. Online was manageable, but she couldn’t even imagine meeting them offline.
After the game concluded, Zka sent a team invite, and after a moment’s thought, Bai Sha accepted.
“Hello, hello! Brother Bai, can you hear me?”
“I can hear you, I can hear you!”
Zka keenly noticed that her voice had also become finer. It wasn’t forced; he still had a video of Bai Sha singing with a strained voice in KTV, and her voice was definitely not like this.
After playing a few rounds, Bai Sha hastily exited and ended her livestream.
‘Sigh, even though I’d be exposed sooner or later, it shouldn’t be now, right? A world champion is a woman, damn it! Will she be dragged into feminist debates (TL Note: ‘打拳’, dÇŽquán, is a slang term referring to aggressive or overly sensitive feminist discourse, often used pejoratively by those who feel it goes too far or is misdirected.) now?’
Bai Sha felt goosebumps erupting on her skin; she could already predict such videos.
“Shocking! The S7 Champion AD is actually a woman.”
“Are women inferior to men in esports? Bai Sha, a woman who disguised herself as a man, achieved a world championship without suffering gender discrimination or unfair treatment.”
‘I’ll just take it one step at a time.’

Inside Dorm 503.
Li Qingyu, having finished watching the livestream, turned to Zhou Haochen. “Second Brother, your sister-in-law’s teammates don’t even know her true identity. You’ve hidden it too well!”
Zhou Haochen, engrossed in his book, looked up, confused. ‘What identity?’
“If she were exposed that day, damn it! Weibo would crash!”
“Is it that serious?”
Li Qingzhu pulled a stool over and sat before him, speaking earnestly. “You have to understand, even though your sister-in-law’s fanbase has dwindled a bit in recent years, she’s still a celebrity player. Just imagine the male fans, female fans, Xiaohongshu (TL Note: A popular Chinese social media and e-commerce platform, similar to Instagram, often used for lifestyle, beauty, and fashion content.)! I don’t even dare to think about it!”
Zhou Haochen frowned. Looking at it that way, it did seem quite serious. Bai Sha still relied on the internet for her livelihood, so exposure was inevitable.
“Don’t worry, Second Brother. I’ll teach you a trick. Go discuss it with your sister-in-law.”
Despite finding Li Qingyu unreliable, Zhou Haochen still inquired, “What method?”
“Don’t look at your sister-in-law’s current immense popularity. The LPL (TL Note: League of Legends Pro League, the highest professional league for League of Legends in China.) is hardly lacking in popular figures right now. Once next year’s competitions begin, her popularity is bound to decline.”
“Hmm, and then what?”
“Then, if she’s exposed, your sister-in-law can rake in a massive fortune! This is an unimaginable stroke of luck!”
Zhou Haochen was speechless. “Get lost, what kind of idea is that?”
He rose, preparing to head to class. Seeing Zhou Haochen about to leave, Li Qingzhu quickly added, “You might be rich now, but who would ever complain about having too much money? Don’t turn your back on wealth!”
‘(Bai Sha: Make money? So easy, too easy. Why don’t I? Because a man has his pride!)’

In the classroom, Zhou Haochen, Sun Weijie, and Lily sat together.
“You two are meeting the parents after the holidays?”
Lily, her arm linked with Sun Weijie’s, smiled brightly. “That’s right! We’ve been together for so long, we’re ready to meet each other’s families.”
Sun Weijie added, “Barring any unforeseen circumstances, we’ll get married after graduation.”
For university sweethearts to stay together until the end was, of course, the best outcome. Both of them would graduate from A University, and their future salaries would certainly not be low. As long as their family backgrounds weren’t too disparate, they would be considered a good match.
“May you have a hundred years of harmony! Remember to invite me for drinks when you get married.”
“What about you? Any plans for the holiday?” Sun Weijie asked with concern.
“I’m not going back this year. I’m staying in S City to accompany them, mother and daughter.”
“Keep it up! Then we’ll get married one after another and make a hefty sum off those two,” Sun Weijie said, referring to the other two single men in their dorm.
Zhou Haochen smiled and nodded. “Absolutely.”
Meanwhile, in the dorm, Li Qingyu was gaming, and Wu Di was at the library: ‘Ah-choo! Who’s thinking of me?’

Now, back to Bai Sha.
After changing and washing the bedsheets and quilt, Bai Sha looked at little Zhou Yuying, who had wrapped herself into a silkworm cocoon on the bed, unwilling to face anyone, and felt a sense of powerlessness.
“Sweetheart, it’s okay. Mama checked, and many children are like you. There’s no need to be sad!”
Bai Sha had indeed looked it up online. The internet said that bedwetting between the ages of 3-5 was uncommon, but still considered normal. However, her little one seemed to think the sky had fallen. She had woken up crying, and after much coaxing, she had become like this.
When Bai Sha returned from her livestream, there was still no improvement. Zhou Yuying would only stir if touched, refusing to speak.
Bai Sha also felt like the sky had fallen. Seeing that it was almost time for her father to finish class, she sent him a message.
[Bai Shazi: Hurry! Your daughter is about to become withdrawn!]
[Her Daddy: What happened? Is it that serious?]
[Bai Shazi: She wet the bed. I can’t comfort her, so I’m going to make dinner. Your daughter is all yours.]
Having said that, Bai Sha walked into the kitchen. ‘Sigh! Children are both adorable and troublesome.’
This was Bai Sha’s reality, becoming a mother to a four-year-old overnight. If she had raised a baby from infancy, with constant wailing, *that* would have been truly annoying.
By the time Zhou Haochen rushed home, Bai Sha emerged from the kitchen. “She’s in the master bedroom. Go on.”
Zhou Haochen nodded and strode purposefully towards the master bedroom.
Before long, Bai Sha saw Zhou Haochen emerge, holding the little one’s hand.
Upon seeing her mother looking at her, the little one shyly covered her flushed face with her small hands.
Bai Sha asked curiously, “That amazing? How did you comfort her?”
Zhou Haochen said helplessly, “I had my mom send me photos of *my* bedwetting incidents.”
Bai Sha gave him a thumbs-up. Indeed, the best way to comfort someone is to find someone even more miserable than they are.
At least Bai Sha hadn’t taken photos of the little one.
She crouched down and gently rubbed the little one’s head. “There’s nothing to be ashamed of. Next time, just drink a little less water before bed, and it won’t happen.”
The little one nodded, then reached out her small hands to hug her mother.
“Sorry, Mama.”
“What for?”
“For comforting Baby for so long.”
“It’s nothing. Mama is your best mama.”
