But then again, an average guy from Jiang University who was neither too outstanding nor completely at the bottom was actually the most suitable for Huang Ran.
After all, how should she put it? She was in it for the practical benefits.
The status of having a boyfriend from a prestigious university, combined with his wealthy family background and his generosity when taking her out to play, was enough for her. She did not ask for more.
If he were a truly excellent guy, he wouldn't even look her way.
If he were the completely hopeless type, he would just stay in his dorm playing video games all day, probably having zero interest in real-life women anyway.
It had to be Xue Tao. He was the most perfect prey for her, Huang Ran.
However, now was not the best time to launch an offensive. The main issue was that Xue Tao and his drama queen girlfriend hadn't officially broken up yet.
Taking advantage of the situation right now had to be done subtly. If she made any concrete moves, she would be seen as a pure homewrecker, giving people a reason to gossip.
Huang Ran felt it would happen soon anyway; she wouldn't have to wait too long.
One look at that woman and you could tell she was insatiably greedy, wanting everything.
Although Xue Tao was quite a pushover, even he had his limits.
But then again, in this drawn-out tug-of-war, if other variables were introduced, it would be hard to say.
Huang Ran believed that Li Xingya might just be that variable.
Of course, with Li Xingya's personality, she definitely wouldn't be interested in Xue Tao, but who was to say Xue Tao wouldn't be attracted to her?
No, it seemed she needed to deepen her connection with Xue Tao recently.
Thus, Huang Ran decided to invite Xue Tao to play video games tonight.
Meanwhile, Xue Tao, who was currently pretending to study in the library, would never have guessed that the reason a girl was inviting him to play games tonight ultimately traced back to Su Bai. It was truly something to sigh about...
...
I am going to sleep at your place tonight.
In the Panamera, Su Bai, who was driving, suddenly spoke.
Hearing this, a surge of pleasant surprise welled up in Lu Yuning's heart.
Su Bai was actually taking the initiative to choose her for the night. Oh, she was so touched!
This was something Lu Yuning had never expected. She thought it would be nice enough if Su Bai just drove her home and then returned to his Shanshui villa. Although her rented apartment wasn't far from the Shanshui villa, how should she put it...
She ultimately felt that Su Bai would prefer to stay at his home base.
There were maids, a butler, and an aloof top-student girl to carry him in games.
From any angle, it was a college boy's dream house, right?
It seems Su Bai really does have me in his heart!
Lu Yuning felt wonderful, experiencing a rare sense of validation.
Being validated by others is actually quite a rare occurrence, especially for someone from an ordinary background. Oppressive education and the deceit of the streets were the norm.
She just wanted to occasionally have a night alone with Su Bai, to be intimate like a real couple. She didn't expect it every day and night; an occasional visit was enough. But she was too embarrassed to ask Su Bai for it. Who knew Su Bai would actually take the initiative this time.
Well, Su Bai had his reasons too. He had a sudden whim and wanted to try out a new game. This game was absolutely perfect for Ningning. Her body was plump, and she had a soft, easily bullied personality. She got shy easily, and more importantly... ahem, she had a unique talent. A talent.
Someone like Sheng Sheng or the senior wouldn't be very suitable. Those two had already passed their initial greenhorn phase and were always trying to turn the tables on him, Su Bai. Truly exasperating.
After parking the car, before heading upstairs, Su Bai first found a bakery and bought a large cream cake.
He also bought some iced mung bean pastries.
These were things Su Bai loved eating recently; they were sweet and perfect for quickly replenishing energy.
Boss, you are really amazing. Eating all this late at night and not worrying about getting fat... Lu Yuning swallowed hard, openly expressing her envy.
She actually loved desserts, but she had to control her portions for fear of gaining weight.
It is alright, I do not gain weight easily. Plus, it is not just for eating. Su Bai wrapped his arm around her waist and gave it a squeeze. It is just the two of us right now, are you still calling me boss?
...Hubby.
Lu Yuning lowered her head and let out a soft murmur, making Su Bai feel comfortable all over.
A good girl acting spoiled was truly the most beautiful sight.
Leaving the bakery and taking the elevator upstairs, Lu Yuning's mind kept spinning. If the cake wasn't just for eating, what else could it be used for?
Having gotten familiar with him, she knew that this guy Su Bai was very wicked and had a wild imagination.
She did know of some bizarre games. After all, she was an art student. You have to understand that female art students come into contact with all sorts of comics and indescribable things, a lot of them. She probably knew more about that stuff than guys her age.
As they were about to enter the apartment, Lu Yuning looked at the cream on the cake and suddenly realized something.
Eek.
Could Su Bai be planning to...
Instantly, Lu Yuning's body temperature began to rise, feeling like steam was about to shoot out of her head.
Seeing her in this state, Su Bai was very satisfied.
Sure enough, this kind of game was best played with a girl who easily got shy!
Actually, someone like Li Xingya would also be very suitable, but they weren't familiar enough yet. That was for the future.
In short, tonight was the time to enjoy Ningning.
This girl was deeply repressed to her bones. Because of this, Su Bai liked to leave her alone for a period of time, and then find a night to be alone with her and share a wonderful time.
As for now, looking at Ningning's shy appearance, Su Bai guessed she had probably already figured out the usage of the cream cake.
Take a shower first. Later, you can apply the cream yourself. Let me see your artistic background!
Woo... okay hubby, you, you...
What is it?
Let me just have a moment to myself first.
Seeing Lu Yuning's legs trembling so much she could barely stand, Su Bai decisively let her go shower by herself.
Ah, how should he put it. Girls who easily get shy are definitely fun, but one must also pay attention to how they are handled.
He couldn't make her too overwhelmingly shy all at once.
...
Late at night.
Su Bai opened a can of iced cola and happily chugged down more than half the bottle in one breath.
The refreshing taste of the cola perfectly balanced the cream he had just eaten.
Su Bai was thoroughly satisfied.
To be honest, it was Su Bai's first time trying to eat a cream cake using this kind of container.
Tableware could be made very luxuriously, using all sorts of precious materials, but how could those cold utensils compare to this warm, wonderful one?
Hehe.
Hubby...
Lu Yuning's weak voice came from under the covers.
What is wrong, have you not played enough yet?
No, I... I, I have no energy left, but I still have not taken a bath.
Hearing this, Su Bai suddenly understood. So Ningning wanted him to help her take a bath.
Sure, I will carry you to take a shower now, and then we will sleep?
Mhm, sleep... just, pure and healthy sleeping.
Lu Yuning was afraid Su Bai would misunderstand her meaning and couldn't help but emphasize it.
She truly had no energy left to continue tossing and turning.
Although she really loved spending alone time with Su Bai, sometimes the intensity was just too much to handle.

ions, keeping it grounded and realistic】 After quitting his job, office worker Su Yang accidentally binds with the "Enjoy Life System."

he colors of other people’s emotions. Light red meant anxiety. Gray meant exhaustion. Orange meant excitement. Yellow... meant repression. At the same time, he could gain unlimited control over one of those colors. Pale cyan: relaxation. Using this ability, he started offering “two-yuan hugs,” spending an afternoon exchanging emotional-color experiences with others. Then came his final female customer of the day— a girl whose emotional color was pure black... —— A week later, Xu Chuan had become skilled at using pale cyan—Relaxation—treating it like a bottle of menthol balm whenever he needed it. That was when he discovered he had unlocked another unlimited emotional color: Purple, the color of fear. So these emotional colors refresh every week? Fine, I take it back—I’ll never call you useless again... —— Much later, after Xu Chuan had accumulated countless emotional abilities, one night, he suddenly found himself inside someone else’s dream. There, he could use the emotional colors he possessed to paint. And in her dream, he painted her a shower of pink shooting stars, spreading across the depths of the night sky...

y came from. The chests contained supplies, currency, class-change scrolls, skills, talents… and even godhood! The laws of the world were completely rewritten. This became a world where everyone gambled with their fate! Some people, despite having nothing, opened a divine artifact and rose to the top, eventually ruling the world. Others went bankrupt, opened nothing but worthless junk, and leaped from skyscrapers in despair. Lin Ye arrived in this world from another reality, utterly bewildered. “What is going on?

The kitchen knife he casually forged became a peerless divine weapon, causing numerous experts to fight desperately for it. The young disciple he took in became an immortal lord that led an era, due to cultivating the techniques Ye Feng taught him.
