After leaving the Jingyutai villa area, the five of them temporarily went their separate ways.
Since Su Yang needed to pick up Lu Yun, Pan Ning rode along in Meng Wenzhou's car.
They agreed to meet at the Guomao Shopping Mall near Lu Yun's previous workplace, while Su Yang drove back alone to Senhai Manor to switch cars.
Plans had changed unexpectedly—he initially thought they would just gather somewhere in the city today, but it turned out they were heading to Shima Town instead.
The McLaren Senna could technically make the trip, but with eight people in total, a sports car like the Senna wasn’t the most practical choice.
A little over twenty minutes later, Su Yang returned home, grabbed the keys, and swapped to the Maybach before driving out of Senhai Manor.
Soon, he arrived at the roadside parking spot near the LV store, where Meng Wenzhou and the others had also picked up Han Xiaoyu and Xia Keke nearby.
Su Yang parked his car, stepped out, and pulled out his phone to call Lu Yun.
"Hey, Lu Yun, I’m nearby now. You can come over—I’m at the LV store entrance."
"Got it~ Be right there!"
After hanging up, he lit a cigarette while waiting.
Today, he was wearing a slightly fitted gray-to-white gradient LV T-shirt, paired with off-white casual shorts from Off-White, white Chanel sneakers, and an Audemars Piguet Royal Oak on his wrist.
The overall look was sporty yet stylish, and combined with his near-perfect physique, almost every passing girl couldn’t help but glance his way.
Though, the Maybach behind him was probably the main reason.
Leaning against the hood of the car, a gust of wind swept through, lifting the short fringe that had grown back on his forehead.
"Hey, handsome~"
A soft, girlish voice suddenly called out.
Su Yang turned toward the sound and saw a very anime-esque, slightly chubby girl with twin tails walking toward him, waving. She wore a white blouse and a gray skirt, her ample chest prominent, and her fair, plump legs were clad in black Mary Jane shoes. Aside from her average face, everything else about her was top-tier.
Su Yang blinked. "You are?"
The girl’s cheeks were round and rosy, looking soft to the touch.
She pointed shyly at the car behind him. "Is this your car, handsome?"
Realizing she was just another car admirer, Su Yang replied flatly, "Obviously. You think I’d sit on someone else’s car like this?"
He quickly sized her up.
—System, scan her.
[Yao Shishi, Age: 19]
[Height: 163cm]
[Weight: 57kg]
[Looks: 75]
[Body: 85]
[Relationships: 1, Single]
[Body Count: 2]
[Trait: Soft, Contrast]
—Wait, when did the system add a new trait?
[It’s not important. The system will continue optimizing to provide a more user-friendly experience for the host.]
—System, you’re too good to me!! I could cry.
—But seriously, what’s this "contrast" trait about? How extreme is it?
[Host may explore this independently.]
Su Yang: "......"
"Handsome, can I add you on WeChat?" Yao Shishi asked, blushing slightly.
"We don’t even know each other."
"I know, but you’re so good-looking, I’d love to get to know you." Her face turned even redder as she spoke.
Her body was great, but her face was just average, even with makeup.
If Su Yang hadn’t already met so many beauties, he might have added her. But now? He was surrounded by stunning women, all scoring above 85. He wasn’t at the point where he’d take just anyone.
Smiling, he said, "No need for WeChat. You’re still a student, right?"
"Mhm, yeah~"
"Then focus on your studies. I’ve got things to do." He dismissed her politely.
"Okay~" Disappointment flickered in Yao Shishi’s eyes as she turned and walked away.
Though he didn’t add her, Su Yang noticed another new system feature. He asked mentally:
—System, what’s Lu Yun’s trait?
[Lu Yun, Trait: High Combat Prowess]
—What the—?!
—Lu Yun’s strong in bed? How come I never noticed?
Su Yang was baffled, but after mentally reviewing his past encounters, he realized Lu Yun might actually be the best among them...
—Damn, then what’s Pan Ning’s trait?
[Pan Ning, Trait: Mysterious, Highly Adaptable]
—What the hell?! I don’t even get it! Whatever, I’ll figure it out later.
As Su Yang was lost in thought, Lu Yun came jogging over from a distance.
"Su Yang~~" she called out while still several meters away.
"You’re here."
"Yep~ Oh, where are your friends?"
"They should be nearby. Let me check."
Su Yang pulled out his phone and messaged Meng Wenzhou.
"Old Meng, where are you guys?"
"At KS Café."
"Where’s KS Café?"
Meng Wenzhou: "No clue, but it’s near Guomao. Oh, and I just saw an absolute goddess in the café! [Smirk]"
Su Yang: "Oh? For you to say that, she must be something. How stunning are we talking?"
"Let me put it this way—the kind of beauty you rarely see in a lifetime. I’ve met plenty of women, but she’s on another level."
Su Yang: "That good? How does she compare to Pan Ning?"
"Hard to say. Different styles. Pan Ning’s not that pretty to me—maybe ‘cause she’s my sister, so I don’t see it. But this girl? Pure, sweet, adorable, flawless from every angle. The kind of girl you’d remember forever, you know?"
"That exaggerated?! Didn’t you go ask for her WeChat? For someone like you, that should be easy."
"I was about to, even stood up, but she suddenly grabbed her bag and ran—maybe got a call or something."
Reading this, Su Yang felt something was off. He glanced at Lu Yun beside him.
"Lu Yun, did you just come from a café?"
Lu Yun nodded. "Yeah~"
‘No way… Old Meng’s talking about her, isn’t he?’
"What was the café called?"
"Uh, I didn’t pay attention, but I think the name had two English letters."
"Damn!"
Su Yang chuckled and replied to Meng Wenzhou: "Never mind that. My friend’s here. Hurry up and meet us at the LV store entrance."
"Got it. Ugh, I should’ve gone up to her sooner. A goddess like that, just gone like the wind."
Su Yang rolled his eyes. "Stop whining and get over here."
After putting his phone away, he turned to Lu Yun. "My friends were in the same café as you earlier."
"Ah? What a coincidence!"
"Yeah, they’re on their way now."
"Okay~"
The two stood by the roadside chatting while they waited, and within minutes, they spotted a group of people approaching in the distance.
The group also noticed Su Yang and a girl standing there, though Lu Yun was turned slightly to the side, making it hard for Meng Wenzhou to see her clearly.
As they drew closer, he found her increasingly familiar.
At that moment, Su Yang smiled and said, "They're here."
Lu Yun turned with a gentle smile and saw six people walking toward them.
Among them, two stood wide-eyed, their mouths hanging open in shock...

his freshman year, Su Bai accidentally bound the "Indulgence Tycoon System." 【Sleeping in? Reward: +$1,000】 【Spent $288 at a street barbecue stall? Cashback: +$2,880】 【Dropped $14,396 on in-game skins? Special reward unlocked: A brand-new Porsche Panamera!】 Luxury cars, penthouses, corporate shares, financial empires… College life was all about living freely and doing whatever he pleased! … When the adorably naive academic genius faced family medical bills and financial struggles, Su Bai waved his hand dismissively: "Your future is on me." "Wuwu~ Big Brother is so good to me! I’ll become a scientist to repay you!" When the genius girl got bullied by a shady professor? Su Bai casually dropped a billion-dollar investment, forcing the university to grovel and beg for her return. A company’s funding chain collapsing? Su Bai smirked—cash was the one thing he’d never run out of. Years later, when people traced the rise of the AI prodigy beauty, who was the man behind her success? Not just that—Su Bai also became the tsundere campus belle’s unattainable dream, the contrast senior’s daily necessity, and the beautiful counselor’s emotional anchor…

A basic punching technique so common it was everywhere instantly maxed out, revealing the ultimate assassination technique of Five Elements Unity—Inner Force! When a rich kid hired assassins for a midnight ambush, aiming to break both of his legs, they instead ran headfirst into a monster—a human-shaped tyrannosaur, brimming with dragon-like vitality. With just two fingers, Su Yu snapped a steel staff reinforced with alloy. Staring at the killer’s stash of stolen cash—a staggering quarter-million dollars—he showed a corporate-sincere smile: “Thanks for the pre-exam gift pack, Mr. Zhao! I’m gonna go re-invest this!” Three days later, at the National Martial Arts College Entrance Exam, while everyone else struggled just to reach the passing line, Su Yu threw a single punch—and more than a thousand vitality points literally detonated the entire arena!

to panic—he has a system. As long as an investment target dies, he can claim a reward. And since he is immortal, the one thing he has plenty of is time. ... Countless years later. “Immortal Emperor of Longevity? I invested in him.” “Supreme Celestial Venerable? I invested in him.” “Undying Empress? I invested in her.” “...” “Heh.
