Su Bai's Anticipated Xu Xinran

Generally speaking, service area staff didn't exactly welcome RVs.

First of all, they took up a lot of space. RVs were obviously much larger than the vast majority of family cars, and some could even be considered on par with construction vehicles in size.

Secondly, when an RV parked in a service area, it might need to refill its water tank and recharge its batteries. This was a bit of a hassle, and a lot of the time, it felt like they were freeloading off the service area's resources... Well, not exactly freeloading. After all, they were there, so could the service area really refuse them entry?

However, Su Bai's super RV didn't receive a single look of dissatisfaction from anyone.

They wouldn't dare to be dissatisfied. The super RV exuded an aura of wealth from top to bottom. Anyone with a bit of common sense would know that the people inside were either rich or powerful.

Forget it, if they needed water and electricity, let them have it. It was a good thing; at the very least, the staff could broaden their horizons and feast their eyes.

Driver Huang went to communicate with the service area staff.

Having driven RVs extensively, he was very familiar with the process. Saying hello to the people in charge made things much easier.

Meanwhile, Su Bai started preparing a mini hotpot with the Wan sisters.

The hotpot base was made by Wan Xinyue herself. It wasn't easy to make, so whenever she was in the mood, she would pick a time when she had no classes, make a large batch in the kitchen at the Ascott, and store it for later.

If you wanted to eat authentic hometown flavors, you had to do it yourself.

"When we get to our hometown, we must let Brother Su Bai try the authentic hotpot..."

"Of course I have to try it," Su Bai said, his mind wandering. In truth, he was more interested in the stir-fried dishes from the Wan sisters' hometown.

It was said to be quite an important regional cuisine, especially famous for its fiery stir-fries. Some dishes were basically soaked in oil, but supposedly they didn't taste greasy at all.

They would just make do with this meal. In the afternoon, they were going rafting, and after that, they would arrive at a forest park in the evening. There was a suitable spot there for the super RV to expand... fully expand!

It was said to be a holy grail for camping.

After Driver Huang finished communicating with the service area staff, he returned to see a glamorous and alluring woman standing by the side of the RV, observing it with great interest.

"Hello, can I help you with anything?" Driver Huang asked, neither haughty nor humble.

Tourists harassing RVs was quite a common occurrence.

Some were just driven by curiosity and wanted to take a casual look, while others were simply rascals.

Based on Driver Huang's experience, this girl shouldn't fall into the rascal category.

She exuded an air of nobility, like the girls from wealthy and aristocratic families he had encountered in the big city, but with an added aura of capability.

Normally, these two temperaments didn't overlap much. The former required the nurturing of a privileged life, while the latter required the trials and tribulations of the workplace. Often, having the former meant lacking the latter.

How to educate children from wealthy families had always been a difficult problem.

If you really let them suffer, the parents would feel heartbroken; if it was just going through the motions, it didn't seem to be of much use.

Xu Xinran smiled politely at Driver Huang. "Oh, I'm a friend of Su Bai's. I just happened to be passing by."

"So you're the boss's friend..."

"I've already sent him a message."

Xu Xinran waved her phone.

Soon, Su Bai jumped out of the RV. The way he looked at Xu Xinran held a hint of pleasant surprise, mixed with what seemed like a fated sense of relief.

After all, Su Bai had seen the reporter's social media posts and knew she was coming to the same province for research. Bumping into her on the road didn't seem all that strange.

Moreover, Su Bai had also mentioned on his own social media that he was going on a trip. If Xu Xinran wanted to know his itinerary, it probably wouldn't be difficult for her to find out.

Reporters were always well-informed.

"Student Su Bai is in such high spirits. This season is perfect for traveling here, though ordinary college students usually don't have that much time."

"Haha, I had to ask my teachers for a leave of absence too. I still have to keep up with my basic courses."

"College courses must be a piece of cake for you."

"They're alright." Su Bai paused. "Since you're here, let's have lunch together. Reporter Xu probably hasn't eaten yet, right?"

"No, I haven't. What delicious food are you making?" Xu Xinran leaned her body forward toward the interior of the RV, her alluring curves swaying in front of Su Bai. "Hotpot? It smells like the style of a certain county near Z City."

"You can smell that?!" Su Bai was amazed.

"My nose is very sharp. Once you've encountered enough, you naturally learn to distinguish them."

Since Su Bai invited her, Xu Xinran didn't stand on ceremony. She followed Su Bai onto the RV, taking the opportunity to have a look around.

"A knowledgeable reporter like you must have seen this type of RV before, right?"

"I actually haven't seen this model." Xu Xinran suddenly flashed a wicked smile. "Student Su Bai has successfully taken my first time... And, if Student Su Bai wants, there are many more 'first times' that can be easily obtained."

She leaned close to Su Bai's ear, her pearly white teeth gently grazing his earlobe...

Su Bai couldn't help but feel a slight flutter in his heart.

Just average!

Faced with the temptation of a beautiful woman, the current Su Bai had quite a strong resistance.

After all, there were too many temptations around him on a daily basis.

He couldn't help but recall a proposition Xu Xinran had once made to him.

To be honest, it was extremely avant-garde and completely defied Su Bai's past imagination of rich girls.

Then again, rich girls were inherently a diverse and bizarre group; it wouldn't be surprising to find any kind of person among them.

The important point was that Xu Xinran wanted to use him to have a child, but Su Bai was far from ready to raise a kid, nor was he the type to just sow his seed and wash his hands of it.

In short, it clashed with his values.

"Oh, alright, alright. Look at you blushing. Are you thinking about serious stuff again?" Xu Xinran teased.

"It's okay, nothing too serious... By the way, Reporter Xu, what are you planning to investigate on this trip?" Su Bai asked in return.

"Oh, it's nothing much. I'm over there... which is the hometown of your twin little maids. I sponsor a few out-of-school children, and since I happen to be helping my college mentor with some field research, I'm dropping by to visit them."

"I see."

You have to admit, this Reporter Xu was surprisingly caring.

When Su Bai had previously looked up her background, he found that this reporter was indeed enthusiastic about charity. Some netizens claimed it was just another show put on by a wealthy young lady, so public opinion on the matter was quite divided.

As for Su Bai, he felt that since Xu Xinran had the privileged background, her willingness to put effort into charity was a good thing.

Whether Xu Xinran was involved in schemes like using charitable foundations to evade taxes, as was common abroad, Su Bai didn't know for the time being.

Seeing Xu Xinran's arrival, the Wan sisters were initially a bit confused. However, after Su Bai introduced her to them, they immediately showed warm smiles.

"So you're Sister Xu Xinran! I've heard Brother Su Bai mention you. He said you're long-term partners. Please take good care of us in the future~"
