Hearing this, everyone at the table also looked at Su Yang.
Su Yang was stunned, immediately widened his eyes, and shook his head in denial: "No way, I'm just like Ziming, planning to help them be a wingman. You can ask them if you don't believe me."
Liu Bo immediately vouched for him: "Yes, Sister Pan, it really has nothing to do with my brother Yang. We just wanted him to help us out, provide some cover if there were any beautiful girls."
Pan Ning's face showed no change in expression. She nodded slightly, picked up the lemon water on the table, and took a small sip: "That's fine then."
"Whew~" Although Su Yang genuinely hadn't planned to participate this time, for some reason, being questioned by Pan Ning always made him nervous.
Seeing that Pan Ning didn't pursue the matter further, Su Yang secretly breathed a sigh of relief and shot Liu Bo a grateful look.
Liu Bo grinned and winked back in response.
A few minutes later, a server pushed a cart towards their table. Besides the items they had ordered, the bar also gifted two fruit platters and two snacks.
The server arranged everything on the table one by one: "Here is everything you ordered, ladies and gentlemen."
Looking at the four extra items on the table, Liu Bo asked, "Miss, we didn't order these?"
The server explained with a smile, "It's like this, sir. Our store is currently running a promotion. For orders over 1000, we gift two fruit platters and snacks."
"Oh, I see. Well, thank you then~"
"You're welcome. Please press the service bell anytime if you need anything."
"Okay."
After the server left, everyone started chatting and drinking. This kind of quiet bar was actually very similar to most coffee shops, very peaceful with only some jazz music and the low murmurs of guests. The patrons inside all followed the rules well.
It wasn't like other bars where people would rowdily play drinking games and make a lot of noise.
Su Yang picked up his iced coffee and quickly downed it in one go: "Whoa! That hits the spot."
"Brother Yang, is that iced Americano really that good?" Liu Bo asked, swirling a glass of Long Island Iced Tea.
Su Yang laughed: "How to put this thing... it's like a lot of foods. People who like it really like it, and those who don't can't stand it."
"Anyway, as long as you enjoy drinking it and it makes you happy, that's what matters."
"True."
As they were chatting, the bar's door opened, and two fashionably dressed women with short hair walked in from outside, giving off a sort of socialite vibe.
Chu Qiunan's eyes sharpened, immediately locking onto the target as he nudged Ji Bo beside him: "Hey hey hey, target spotted!!"
"Where? Where?" Hearing this, before Ji Bo could even respond, Meng Qianyu leaned over and asked first.
Mainly because Chu Qiunan hadn't deliberately lowered his voice like at the beginning but had spoken normally, so everyone present heard him.
Chu Qiunan turned his head and smiled: "No, I mean, Qianyu, why are you so interested?"
"Can only you guys appreciate beautiful women? We girls like looking at beautiful women too."
"Yeah, anyone can appreciate beautiful things," Su Qingci chimed in.
Chu Qiunan gave a helpless smile: "Alright, alright. Over by the entrance, see? One in a black bodycon skirt, one in gray spaghetti-strap skinny jeans." As he spoke, he pointed towards the direction of the entrance.
Apart from Pan Ning, who wasn't interested and continued drinking on her own, all the other girls turned to look along with the guys.
"Can only be considered okay~" Meng Qianyu said flatly after looking for a few seconds.
Ji Bo glanced at Meng Qianyu: "Well, that depends on who you're comparing them to. Compared to you all, they naturally fall short, but compared to ordinary people, they're already quite good-looking."
Hearing Ji Bo's words, the girls didn't refute him but nodded with smiles: "Little Ji Bo, if you can talk like that, you can say more."
"Hehe, I'll say more later. Let me observe first~"
As he said this, he continued to observe the two girls standing at the bar counter talking to the bartender in the distance.
Su Yang also turned slightly to look, but his seat was by the window, making it a bit awkward to get a good view.
But that didn't stop him from using his cheat.
— System, what are the attractiveness scores of those two girls over there?
[Li Wei, Attractiveness: 73]
[Yang Xue'er, Attractiveness: 70]
— Their figures are okay, but their looks are a bit lacking.
He also stopped looking and turned back to drink with Pan Ning.
Meng Wenzhou also sized them up for a few glances before looking away.
Soon, Chu Qiunan and the others also realized that these two girls' level was actually about the same as those few girls who had gone to play the escape room with them before.
This time, they were looking for long-term partners, not the kind you sleep with for one night and then part ways.
"Forget it, forget it. Still not quite up to par. Let's wait and see a bit more," Chu Qiunan said, turning his head back.
Ji Bo and Liu Bo also turned their heads back and stopped looking.
Everyone continued drinking. Then, Chu Qiunan pulled out his phone and secretly @'ed Su Yang in the guys' group chat.
Chu Qiunan: @Su Yang, Old Su, where's your magic? Hurry up and cast a spell~
Ji Bo: Yeah, Brother Yang, don't you run into stunning beauties everywhere you go? What's going on today?
Chu Qiunan: Right, back in Licheng, you could bump into a peerless beauty like Ren Lingxi just wandering around the streets. There should be even more beauties in a place like this.
Feeling the constant vibration in his pants pocket, Su Yang knew without looking that it was Chu Qiunan and the others sending messages in the group.
He pretended to normally check his phone, took it out, turned slightly to shield it, and opened the WeChat group.
Su Yang: You guys think I'm a god or something.
Chu Qiunan: In my eyes, you are a god. The deity in charge of peach blossom luck.
Su Yang: ......
Ji Bo: Cast the spell, Brother Yang!
Zhang Ziming: You guys settle down. I bet we won't meet any pretty girls tonight.
Chu Qiunan: Impossible. I believe in Old Su.
Su Yang: Alright, alright. Then I'll exert just a tiny bit of my magical power.
Ji Bo: Great, great. I'm already prepared.
Su Yang: Look at the door. Count down from ten in your heart, and a girl with an attractiveness score over 80 is guaranteed to walk in.
Seeing this, Meng Wenzhou raised an eyebrow: For real?
Liu Bo: Brother Yang, you swear?
Chu Qiunan: Really? It can't be that magical, can it?
Su Yang was actually just talking nonsense, but he continued typing in reply: Just turn and look at the door and count down~
After seeing this, although they knew Su Yang was just messing around, they still cooperatively turned to look at the door and started counting down in their hearts.
Ten.
Nine.
Eight.
...
Two.
One!
As the last number fell, the bar door did not open.
Chu Qiunan: @Su Yang, you old liar!
Meng Wenzhou: Wait, look at the door.
After sending this message, they turned to look again.
Just then, the bar door happened to open from the outside, and a long-haired girl wearing a gray-and-white checkered shirt with denim bodycon shorts walked in.
She was about 165 cm tall with long, slender legs. The main thing was her face was quite pretty, clearly a notch above the two girls from before.
Their table was diagonally facing the bar entrance. Chu Qiunan, Ji Bo, and Meng Wenzhou, sitting on the outer side of the booth, got a relatively clear view of her face.
At a glance, the three of them widened their eyes, partly stunned by the girl's looks, and partly amazed by Su Yang's seemingly supernatural insight.
Seeing their expressions, Su Yang also tilted his head to look. He raised an eyebrow, thinking to himself: 'What the...? Am I really some kind of deity?'
—System.
[Gao Yue, Age: 23]
[Height: 166cm]
[Weight: 51kg]
[Appearance: 84]
[Figure: 85]
[Number of Relationships: 2, Currently Single]
[Number of Sexual Partners: 1]
[Characteristics: Outgoing and cheerful, unconstrained by minor details]
—Hmm, not bad looking.
Meanwhile, the girl at the door scanned the bar and, looking somewhat displeased, walked over and took a seat at the counter.
lan, the Luo family, tracked him down - along with the babies in their arms. Mo Xuan stared pensively at the paternity test results from over a dozen top institutions, both domestic and international, showing a 99.99% match between himself and the two baby girls. At 23, Mo Xuan, a doctoral student, had become the father of two three-year-old children. The kicker? The mothers weren't even the same person! He gradually realized he was being lured step by step into an elaborate trap designed by these two yandere sisters. "Be good, little Xuan. Sister's life belongs to you entirely." "Brother, if you try to run away, I'll have no choice but to tie you up." Mo Xuan: "Do whatever you want, ladies. I give up."

Bad news: I transmigrated. This is a terrifying high-martial world, and my original, pathetically weak body fell into a coma and never woke up. Good news: I got a Popularity Points system upon arrival. I can see live comments and even create an unkillable alternate identity. Starting out, the alternate identity has all stats at 1.
