"My dear junior husband, your taste is really good... She truly is an adorable girl. It's rare to see someone so cute even after entering the working world~"
Zhou Jialu murmured in Su Bai's ear.
"Listen to you. Is society some kind of infernal abyss? Do girls just stop being cute the moment they step into it..."
"Yeah, a lot of girls get blinded by material desires or become utterly repulsive... Well, people are inherently materialistic, but some just lack a bottom line, which is really infuriating to see."
Zhou Jialu's thoughts weren't complicated and were easily expressed. In fact, Su Bai shared a similar view. Perhaps this was the unique charm of an S-grade goddess. Some people were just like that—even after starting to work, they still retained a clear, innocent naivety.
It might not be beneficial for career development, but as a beautiful aspect of human nature, it shone brightly.
Fine wine, beautiful women...
Faced with such a splendid scene, Su Bai naturally wouldn't waste any time. While savoring the wine...
...
A few minutes later.
Zhou Jialu was draped in a thin summer quilt, her body soft and limp as she lay on the sofa, her eyes gazing at him with silken allure.
Su Bai was still left wanting more.
Unless he deliberately finished things quickly, there was no way Zhou Jialu could handle him.
Immediately after, Su Bai turned his gaze to Lu Yuning, who was seemingly asleep on the other side, and locked his eyes firmly onto her.
"Stop pretending to be asleep, Ningning."
She didn't respond, but her ears twitched slightly, and the tips of them even began to turn red.
This sight made Su Bai appreciate Ningning's loveliness even more. He even started to wonder if he should tease her more often. He felt that when he joked around with her, her charm was even more potent.
...
A long time later.
Feeling the sensation... Su Bai took a satisfying sip of ice-cold cola.
[Ding! Detected S-grade goddess Lu Yuning. Affection level has risen to Unwavering Devotion. Bound to Indulgent Spending Cashback. Rewarded with Lottery Draw +1.]
[Congratulations to the host for obtaining the most precious possession of another S-grade goddess. Acquired special skill: Value Assessment.]
A new skill?
Su Bai couldn't help but open the detailed information.
[Value Assessment: You can appraise the true market price of an item.]
This thing is useful... Not that he needed it to make money. For Su Bai, its main value lay in showing off and avoiding getting scammed when buying things.
There were some fields Su Bai knew absolutely nothing about, like the murky waters of antiques and curios. He actually wanted to play around in that area, but since he didn't know the ropes, jumping in recklessly would easily make him a target to be treated as a sucker.
He was rich, sure, but he didn't want to be taken for a ride.
This value assessment skill was incredibly powerful, helping him avoid the exact situation he hated the most.
There was no rarity level marked behind the skill; it was categorized as a special item... Su Bai had pretty much figured out Brother System's routine by now. These so-called special items were things that carried somewhat supernatural elements.
Overpowered, but not entirely game-breaking.
It was more than enough to let Su Bai effortlessly dominate his daily life.
"Hubby..."
While Su Bai was lost in thought, the beauty in his arms let out a touching, soft murmur.
"What is it?" Su Bai pinched her cheek.
"...Awoo, awoo."
Lu Yuning seemed to really enjoy this form of address. She called out again in a soft, delicate voice, hugging Su Bai's body and letting out a slightly silly giggle.
She especially loved the feeling of staying by Su Bai's side—stable and light, without the need to worry about anything at all. She could just freely unleash her talents and do whatever she wanted to do.
What a rare state of living this was. How many people would die of envy!
villain is the number one simp for the book's leading female protagonist, Shen Wan'er. As expected, he later becomes a tool for the main character to show off and slap faces, ultimately meeting a tragic end with his family ruined and his life in shambles. Fortunately, he awakens the [Universal Pure Love System], which allows him to earn points by performing acts of pure love. To change his fate, Gu Yan makes a decisive choice to seek warmth and companionship with the book's biggest villain—Cold Qingqiu. ........... My name is Leng Qingqiu. To find the murderer who killed my parents years ago, I deliberately blinded myself so that everyone would lower their guard around me. Just as I was secretly accumulating power and capital according to my initial plan, a man walked into my world. "Lengleng, Qingqing, Qiuqiu, which nickname do you prefer?" I don't like any of them. You'd better leave quickly! "Why aren't you saying anything? How about I call you my baby wife?" Leng Qingqiu thinks to herself, this man is truly annoying! (Stubborn pure love warrior + single female lead + true pure love + 1v1)
transmigrates into the world as the sect master of the Heavenly Yan Sect, which is on the verge of being wiped out. He binds a system that grants him cultivation power based on the number of disciples he has: for each disciple, he automatically gains a year's worth of cultivation every single day! Take one disciple: every day he gains 1 year of cultivation power. While others struggle through a year of bitter training, he gets the same just by sleeping through a single night. Take ten disciples: every day he gains 10 years of cultivation power. Foundation Establishment, Core Formation, Nascent Soul—he breezes through all bottlenecks without lifting a finger. Take one hundred disciples: every day he gains 100 years of cultivation power. Even a Soul Transformation Venerable before him can’t survive a single blow. Take ten thousand disciples: every day he gains 10,000 years of cultivation power! With a wave of his hand, he topples empires. With a single step, he crushes the sacred grounds of the universe. ... While others fight tooth and nail for secret techniques, Lin Yan casually hands out Nascent Soul-level cultivation manuals as beginner textbooks. While others strain to find talented recruits, Lin Yan opens his doors to anyone—so long as they’re human. In just three short years, the Heavenly Yan Sect went from a backwater sect made up of three crumbling huts to a sacred land that every cultivator under heaven would kill to enter. ... One day, otherworldly demon gods invade, with a million demon soldiers pressing down upon the realm. Lin Yan, yawning, rises from his lounge chair and glances at the system panel: [Current Disciples: 1.28 million] [Daily Cultivation Increase: 1.28 million years] He waves his hand casually, and the countless demon soldiers are reduced to ashes in an instant. “So noisy… interrupting my fishing.”
rowess are unmatched, commanding a million-strong army! Yet, the Emperor wants to depose him for the sake of a false prince? Hold on, are you throwing me into some female-oriented romance plot? How can I tolerate this? With a grand wave of his hand—the Nine Clan Extraction Technique! Slander the Emperor? Very well, all of you shall die! ... The False Prince: "Although I am not the biological son, Father and Mother love me more. The throne should be mine!" The Female Lead: "Qin Xiao, you are the Emperor, and I am a commoner. If you wish to marry me, you must abdicate. Otherwise, you will never have me!" The Empress: "After we divorce, you must give me half the empire!" The Transmigrator Consort: "You worthless Emperor, why should I kneel to you? All men are equal—I advise you to be kind!" The Great General: "The enemy general is my childhood sweetheart. For her sake, I willingly abandon the frontier defenses!" The Retired Emperor: "Although Yu'er was adopted, I prefer him. Qin Xiao, you should abdicate and let him become Emperor!" ... Very well! So this is how you want to play? Facing this twisted world of female-oriented tropes, Qin Xiao grins and raises his hand to unleash—the Nine Clan Extraction Technique! I am the Emperor. Why would I bother reasoning with you? Seal the gates! Leave none alive!
for mindless slaughter, this isn't for you.] My name is Ye Shu, and I'm a transmigrator. It seems I'm supposed to be the protagonist, but that feels pretty unlikely. This world has been invaded by a system. The antagonists on the other side have suddenly become pure, flawless saints. The female leads have been force-fed the so-called "original plot," making them think they've been reborn. Now, everyone thinks I'm scum. Including the old lady in my ring. And here I am, in the Monster Beast Mountain Range, braising pork. To put my situation in perspective— It's as if, the moment Xiao Yan stepped into the Monster Beast Mountain Range, the Soul Emperor already knew he would become the Flame Emperor, and Yao Lao had been turned to the enemy's side. I have nothing right now. Oh wait, that's not true. I do have a white-haired loli child-bride who's the Heavenly Dao, and her only skill is acting cute. So, tell me guys... what are my chances of making it to the end?
