It was another bright and sunny day.
Sunlight scattered across the campus of Jiangcheng University like flakes of gold. The number of students out for their morning runs had noticeably decreased compared to before, even though the current weather was actually perfect for exercising.
Having just gone through a busy period, students always needed some time to slack off. It was a kind of dynamic equilibrium. It was like how you always felt full of hope for life after taking a morning dump—after all, the filth had been expelled, so how could you not be full of hope?
However, for Su Bai, today was a day for business.
In the morning, he went to the clothing factory to sign a contract. Xia had helped him find a seller. Although she didn't know what the point of Su Bai buying this thing was, Xia always did her best to fulfill the various needs of her little brother Su Bai.
In the afternoon, there was a contract signing at an office building. He was going to meet the owner. It probably wouldn't be a problem; she was a refined, middle-aged woman, and Su Bai had communicated with her quite smoothly over a video call.
Actually, as long as money wasn't an issue, communication would generally go smoothly, provided one's emotional intelligence wasn't as abysmally low as Brother Tao's...
Su Bai hadn't really experienced the life of a businessman before, so today was an eye-opener for him.
He got things done smoothly without much haggling.
The overall feeling was that it was a bit troublesome, having to run around everywhere.
But it was also quite fulfilling. Seeing the funds in his account break the five hundred million mark after these two cashback transactions put him in a very cheerful mood.
"Where are we going to play tonight?" Zhou Jialu asked in a sweet voice as she massaged Su Bai's shoulders from the side.
Even though Su Bai's neck and shoulders were perfectly healthy, she still loved to take the initiative to show affection to him in public. Receiving the mixed gazes of onlookers gave her an inexplicable sense of joy.
"I haven't decided yet. Hmm... let's go find Lu Yuning and share the good news with her. Now that we have the factory, her project can be launched. It's not just about your clothes, but also some of her own little dreams..."
Mentioning this, Su Bai remembered some information Zhou Jialu had shared with him.
When she went to look for Lu Yuning, there were a few times when she encountered the girl with a flushed face, and the room was filled with a faint, intriguing fragrance.
Based on her experience, Zhou Jialu speculated that Lu Yuning was probably very fond of enjoying some self-love.
Su Bai thought this was a good thing; it proved she had a strong desire in that aspect. Of course, it wasn't entirely a good thing. If she relied too much on her own hardworking hands, it would be detrimental to her body in the long run. How should he put it? According to the theories of traditional Chinese medicine, it meant a lack of harmony between yin and yang.
He would help her harmonize it tonight.
"Since we're going to find Ningning, let's pack some desserts on the way~" Zhou Jialu suggested.
"Why desserts?"
"She likes sweet things."
"You even know that."
"Hehe~ I know the preferences of all of my junior husband's confidantes like the back of my hand. Aren't you going to praise me?"
A smile played on Su Bai's lips as he used his actions to reward his senior. His fingers brushed against the material of her 25D skin-colored pantyhose.
With a smooth one-handed maneuver, coupled with the weak-point attack of the [XX Emperor] skill, he quickly made his senior cover her mouth and let out embarrassing sounds within just a minute.
"Wu wu... Junior, you... ah, you're so bad..."
Zhou Jialu's eyes also flickered with astonishment.
Her reaction was even stronger than when Su Bai had experimented on the Wan sisters previously.
In addition to his inherent skills, Su Bai had also incorporated some basic traditional medical techniques. Therefore, the various skills given by the System Bro were all interconnected and comprehensive, rather than just rigid knowledge.
"That was amazing. What was that just now?" Taking advantage of Su Bai waiting at a red light, Zhou Jialu charmingly hugged his arm and planted a kiss on his cheek.
"If you like it, I can give you a taste of it anytime when we're out shopping in the future..."
"No, no, no, that's too stimulating. It would be so embarrassing."
Zhou Jialu's expression drastically changed as she imagined the scene:
In a luxury boutique, Su Bai's hand would wrap around her slender waist and suddenly start acting naughty. Then, under the bewildered gaze of the saleswoman, she would start acting all weird...
No, that was too outrageous!
But if her junior husband liked it, well, it wasn't entirely impossible~
Zhou Jialu whispered this conclusion into Su Bai's ear, making him burst into laughter.
"What are you laughing at?" she asked, a little annoyed, playfully scratching Su Bai's arm with her fingertips.
Su Bai pinched her cheek and kissed her small mouth.
Bringing his senior along for business occasions was the best. She was the seductive and bewitching type, the kind where "just by holding a man's arm, onlookers would immediately assume the man is definitely rich."
She could act coquettish and sweet, yet she was also very capable. She could help Su Bai review contracts and organize all matters in an orderly manner.
It seemed she had indeed grown quite a bit... Su Bai remembered that when she first started as a manager, she was still a bit flustered. But now, she handled things with ease and cooperated well with the Wan sisters, even though there was always a faint sense of competition lingering between them.
Because of this, Su Bai also had to use this quick-arrival technique on Zhou Jialu; otherwise, his senior would get jealous.
Returning to Ascott, they went straight to Lu Yuning's home.
"Boss, welcome... thank you for gracing me with your presence..." Lu Yuning said shyly, twisting her body slightly.
"Hilarious. What the hell do you mean 'gracing you with my presence'? Don't treat me like a stranger, okay? We are soulmates who share the same perverted aesthetics!" Su Bai teased.
"Eh, what perverted aesthetics..."
"Just... the clothes..."
Zhou Jialu's question made Lu Yuning even more embarrassed. She lowered her head and played with the hem of her nightgown, though she couldn't help but steal glances at Su Bai from the corner of her eye.
The boss was truly different from everyone else.
That inclusive and completely non-aggressive aura was something Lu Yuning had never experienced from anyone else.
In social interactions, the weaker party was often the more sensitive one. Because Lu Yuning had an exceptionally soft and gentle temperament, she was easily bullied, so she felt this point particularly deeply.
Su Bai was a super dominant man, yet he didn't give her any sense of discomfort.
"These are some documents we got from the factory today. Take a look. If you need any other equipment, just say the word, and I'll go buy it."
Lu Yuning hurriedly took the documents and looked through them. After a while, she quickly said, "This is already enough."
"That's good. Next year I'll take you to see the factory and introduce you to the person in charge. From now on, you can just direct their work remotely."
"Mhm... thank you, Boss!"
Lu Yuning was almost moved to tears of gratitude. Just look at this treatment! Even the exclusive designers of big celebrities might not have such an exaggerated level of freedom.
Following Su Bai was definitely the right choice.
Watching Zhou Jialu arrange a pile of desserts on the table, Lu Yuning couldn't help but swallow her saliva.
"Let's eat something together to celebrate. Also, I brought some wine." Su Bai took out a bottle of red wine and shook it slightly. "On the day we met, we drank this, and you said you quite liked it."

world slacker. But a genius female disciple just had to get clingy, insisting that he take her as a disciple. Not only that, she was always making advances on him, thoroughly disrupting his peaceful slacker life...

grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too. And the way they looked at him became increasingly strange... (This synopsis doesn't do it justice, please read the full story)

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?!

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!
