How could it be a hassle to go play with Ningning?
After all, this girl was soft, sweet, and especially easy to bully.
Su Bai went to the bar to grab a bottle of plum wine, and then began to prepare for today's battle.
The bar was actually always open without any closing hours. It was just that during certain periods, it didn't receive walk-in customers. However, for a VIP of Su Bai's level, there would always be an exclusive private room available whenever he visited.
This was also a marketing strategy of OUT12. They had to give their high-end clients face and prestige. Otherwise, this bar wouldn't last long in Jiangcheng, and it would probably be Mamba OUT in just a few months.
Knocking on the door, the moment he entered the room, Su Bai pinched Lu Yuning's soft cheeks, and then...
...
"Boss... sob... Boss is bullying me..."
"How am I bullying you? You look pretty happy to me. Are you not happy?"
Su Bai deliberately pulled a long face, pretending to be fierce.
Sure enough, Lu Yuning immediately showed a look of panic. "I am happy, Boss, I didn't mean it like that... sob..."
Before she could finish her words...
Lu Yuning felt as if she had truly become Su Bai's pet little white rabbit, allowing him to knead and mold her as he pleased, tugging at her ears one moment, scratching her belly the next, leaving her completely powerless to resist.
However, the price Su Bai paid to keep her was very high... She didn't feel the slightest hesitation or regret.
Besides, she was truly happy.
In the future, she was afraid she really wouldn't ever be able to leave Su Bai.
People were all like this: going from frugality to luxury is easy, but going from luxury to frugality is hard.
The spacious leather sofa in the living room had long been cleaned up.
...
"How do you feel today? If it's inconvenient for you to move around, we can go see the factory tomorrow. Staying at home with you for a day is pretty good too." Su Bai poured a glass of wine casually.
"Tomorrow... Yeah." Lu Yuning blinked, a flash of joy crossing her eyes. "Will Boss stay here all day today?"
"If you want to go out and play, I don't mind."
"I, I don't want to go out. Being here is just fine."
A wave of pleasant surprise and sweetness welled up in Lu Yuning's heart.
Su Bai was actually taking a whole day out to spend with her.
She always felt that Su Bai was the kind of man with a particularly rich and colorful life, and that to him, she might just be an insignificant little interlude. Thinking about it like that made her feel a bit melancholy... But then Su Bai came to keep her company, which was completely beyond Lu Yuning's expectations.
Of course, Su Bai didn't actually have too many extra thoughts; he was just following his heart.
Ningning was a newcomer after all, so the sense of novelty was strong. Plus, since he was already planning to go traveling, he decided to take some time to hang out at her place for a day.
It was a bit hard to admit, but Su Bai indeed had a talent for being a scumbag. A newly acquired girl just felt more exciting... It wasn't that the old flames had lost their charm, but rather that the frequency had to be reasonably reduced to maintain a stable situation.
A good man's ambitions lie far and wide; the future journey is the sea of stars!
The soft, intimate, and sticky time flew by.
The next day, in the morning.
Lu Yuning held Su Bai's arm, sitting in the passenger seat of the Porsche Panamera.
Today the Wan Sisters had their major course exams for broadcasting and hosting, so Su Bai simply drove himself. After all, they were just going to take a stroll around the factory in the industrial zone, and the distance wasn't far.
On the way, Lu Yuning curiously opened the vanity mirror and carefully adjusted her makeup in front of it.
Having never ridden in a luxury car much, she was curious.
Her behavior made Su Bai unable to hold back a smile. "No need to be so excited. This will be your norm from now on."
"Sob... It feels so dreamy, almost like I'm having a grand illusion," Lu Yuning sighed with emotion.
Ever since she attended the bar's opening ceremony with her roommate, the trajectory of her life had uncontrollably veered in a bizarre direction.
"Then do you want to find a way to verify if you're dreaming?" Su Bai had a smile on his lips.
"How should I verify it?"
Lu Yuning thought of a method she had seen in movies, which said to pinch your thigh. If it was a dream, the pain would wake you up, but she was afraid of pain.
"Afraid of pain, right?"
"Eh? How did Boss know..."
"You silly girl, all your thoughts are written on your face."
"Sorry..."
"There's nothing to be sorry about. People have different personalities, and not everyone has to live by the same template," Su Bai comforted her, then suddenly changed the subject. "I actually have a way to verify if you're dreaming without any pain."
"What is it?!"
"..."
...
Lu Yuning's pretty face instantly turned completely red.
...
"Boss..."
Upon arriving at the parking spot at their destination, Lu Yuning's eyes were glistening with moisture. Her beautiful, clear eyes stared at Su Bai with a hint of resentment.
"What's wrong?"
"..."
...
Watching her touch up her makeup in the vanity mirror, Su Bai was filled with emotion.
Sure enough, a girl's aura is a mysterious thing.
Zhou Jialu had taken her to buy a few sets of luxury clothes and changed her hairstyle. Now, her whole person had shed her previous country bumpkin image, transforming into a demure and well-endowed beautiful young girl.
Meanwhile, outside the car.
A woman with decent looks but a somewhat mean and bitter face, wearing heavy professional makeup and stepping in high heels, clacked along the sidewalk by the road.
Beside her was her best friend, who was slightly chubby and looked quite ordinary.
The two were chattering away, discussing the subtle changes in the situation at the factory.
It wasn't until they saw the Porsche Panamera parked by the roadside that the two stopped their ongoing topic.
A look of greed successively revealed itself in their eyes.

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...

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.”

Running into his icy fiancée who shows up with a mountain-descending divine doctor to break off their engagement. The divine doctor arrogantly taunts: "What does your Shen family have besides a bit of stinking money? You're not even worthy of tying Qingxue's shoelaces!" Shen Fei just smiled.
