Seeing the cunning, playful look on Xu Xinran's face, it felt like she was getting addicted to this game and had no intention of letting Su Bai go just yet.
Su Bai had no choice but to let Xu Xinran press her body against his and explore at will.
Intuitively, her physical fitness seemed excellent, arguably on par with Xia Lin.
Good lord, why are all these rich young ladies so fierce? Could those tropes in novels where the heiress aggressively forces herself on the protagonist actually be true?
That said, if Su Bai really wanted to leave, Xu Xinran wouldn't be able to stop him. But frankly, between the provocative curiosity in her eyes and her small hands roaming over his body, Su Bai was actually enjoying it quite a bit.
Whatever, I'll just satisfy her curiosity.
She wasn't exactly a young girl anymore—definitely in the "young mature" category—yet she had never touched a man? Maybe she really just never had the interest before.
Su Bai was well aware of his own charm. With a looks score of 94 and the buff from his [Sigma Aura], even the coldest woman could easily get dizzy in his presence.
But Xu Xinran wasn't dizzy. She was studying Su Bai up close with the mindset of exploring uncharted territory.
It reminded Su Bai of how Chen Yusheng looked when reading academic papers.
Plus, the way her legs were locked tight around his waist added a unique flavor to the situation.
"Interested in helping me complete a piece of investigative literature?"
"No thanks, I have no desire to become a human specimen..."
"Just joking. By the way, do all men like this..."
Xu Xinran's lips hovered close to Su Bai's ear.
Unlike those beauties with delicate, thin lips, hers were on the fuller side—very moist, but without that greasy feel of celebrities who overdo the lip filler. It was just right.
Her bones exuded a sense of cold intellect, which, in Su Bai's eyes, was her greatest source of charm.
To be fair, Su Bai had always admired girls with real skills... basically girls like Chen Yusheng.
An S-class goddess needed some substance; she couldn't just be a flower vase. She needed a specialty to be worthy. Even the Senior, who seemed a bit more worldly, was actually a very talented butler.
However, it was obvious that Xu Xinran's technique in teasing Su Bai's ear left much to be desired.
She seemed to realize it too, mostly because Su Bai looked a bit pained. Su Bai wasn't the type of simp who thought "anything a beauty does to me is good."
"Is it uncomfortable?"
"It's a bit piercing. You need to control your breathing and the pressure..."
Su Bai imparted his wisdom without reservation.
Taking care of ears was an art form. Just look at those ASMR streamers online; their skills varied wildly.
Even veterans in the industry could slip up during a live stream and scare the listeners, let alone a complete novice like Xu Xinran.
Su Bai had no interest in the reporter lady's "gene plan," but he was interested in the rewards for S-class goddesses. Clearing the "level" had a chance of dropping special items.
Hugging a soft body in this flower-scented hideaway and communicating with a beautiful, intellectual media tycoon wasn't bad either.
Xu Xinran was a quick learner. After some pointers from Su Bai, she quickly reached a relatively comfortable level.
However, good times don't last long. A moment later, footsteps sounded outside.
"Where's our Junior brother?"
"He said he was coming to the hanging garden to look around. I don't know where he went... I still wanted to discuss what to eat for lunch with him."
It was Zhou Jialu and Xia Lin.
It seemed the tennis lesson hadn't lasted very long. That was normal; Zhou Jialu's athletic ability was only enough to support her wiggling around for Douyin videos. Expecting her to play actual sports was asking too much; she probably couldn't even finish a full ping-pong match.
Girls were like that. Based on Su Bai's observations, many young women his age didn't prioritize sports.
Take high school PE class for example: unless the teacher was sick, many girls didn't want to participate. After the required warm-up, they'd walk in pairs on the track or hide in the shade to gossip.
Boys, on the other hand, couldn't wait to ignore the teacher and go play ball.
Xia Lin teased with a smile, "Little Lu really needs to exercise properly. Butler work is quite tiring, especially once Junior buys his own villa... I think he'd prefer a detached villa."
"True. Ugh, let's not talk about villas. Just handling Junior at night leaves me powerless."
Zhou Jialu hung out every day with "god-tier" figures like Wan Xinyue and Chen Yusheng, who were frustrated in that department. Their private conversations were completely unfiltered.
This fit the style of girl talk; it's common knowledge that when no guys are around, a group of girls can be incredibly lewd...
However, Xia Lin wasn't used to this. Her cheeks instantly flushed, and she began to stammer.
"...Powerless? Haha, surely... surely not..."
"What do you mean 'surely not'? Lin-lin, you should have experienced it too, right? Su Bai, that guy, is ridiculously fierce. I suspect he could challenge a Guinness World Record."
Is there actually a Guinness Record for that? I'd like to know.
Behind the flower trellis, Su Bai silently roasted her comment.
He realized his hearing had broken through its limits again. One ear was enjoying Xu Xinran's attention, while the other could distractedly listen to the two women chatting outside. Truly invincible.
Human potential really is forced out by necessity.
"Lin-lin looks quite shy. Don't tell me you haven't done it with Su Bai yet..."
"...I have."
Xia Lin brushed her hair back, sweat forming on her temples. "I'm just not used to talking about these things. Sigh, let's talk about something else..."
"I didn't expect Lin-lin to have such a cute side."
Zhou Jialu covered her mouth and giggled, teasing her with good intentions.
It felt worth it to see this side of Xia Lin today.
In her impression, Xia Lin had always been the image of virtue and propriety, fitting everyone's fantasy of a traditional rich young lady.
However, some people claimed Xia Lin was fake-prudish and actually played wilder than anyone in private.
Zhou Jialu never believed that. It was obvious slander. People with high EQ could judge intuitively whether a girl was messy in private or not, and Xia Lin was definitely clean and self-disciplined.
But still, blushing just talking about that with female friends? That was too pure. It somewhat exceeded Zhou Jialu's understanding.
"Su Bai likes the type like Lin-lin, right? A pure, flawless sheet of white paper that you can develop however you want," Xu Xinran asked in Su Bai's ear.
"Mmh..."
"Then I can be that too. You can develop me however you want. In return, I just need your high-quality genes. Also, our business cooperation remains valid. Since you're just playing around and not building a massive conglomerate, I can handle the media side. Even for legal matters, my former classmates can take good care of you... Haa... Anyway, the conditions are very, very good. Isn't CEO Su tempted?"
Xu Xinran's breathing became increasingly heated.

ing gift was a patch of barren land, and disciples were all picked up along the way. He spent fifty years diligently building three "ramshackle little sects," thinking he could finally live a carefree life relying on his disciples. But right at the fifty-year mark, he was suddenly swept away by a spatial rift and exiled to the Chaos Desolation, the Disorderly Ruins. There was no spiritual energy there, only slaughter. Relying on the cultivation feedback from his disciples, Gu Changyuan hacked his way through a sea of blood for eleven hundred years. When the system finally fished him back out, he discovered the ramshackle little sects he'd built back then had developed a rather... unusual style. Hold on... I vanished for a thousand years, so how did my ramshackle little sects become holy lands?!

ut it can buy an entire year of absolutely perfect training results! Su Yu stared at his empty wallet and decisively opened up various online loan platforms. “Borrow a thousand bucks! Recharge my vitality!” Boom! His vitality broke a hundred points, shattering the limits of the human body! “Borrow ten thousand bucks! Recharge my combat skills!” Boom! 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!

with countless casualties. As a top-tier gamer, Liu Xuan volunteered to join the fight, intending to dominate with his skills, but instead he obtained the hidden class: [Pacifist]. Unable to attack. Unable to use active skills. Fortunately, with each level gained, he acquired a new passive skill. And so, armed with a body full of passives, Liu Xuan slaughtered his way through the battlefield of ten thousand races!
