To be honest, Chen Yusheng never expected Su Bai to hand over the money so effortlessly.
It was several million, not just a few hundred.
Admittedly, part of it was because Su Bai was insanely wealthy.
But Chen Yusheng still felt that his willingness to go this far for her proved he genuinely liked her.
At this realization, the clouds in her mind suddenly parted, and clarity dawned.
She had an epiphany.
A "sugar relationship" was the most fitting dynamic for the two of them.
Given the gap in their backgrounds, resources, and social status, they weren’t really suited to be a conventional couple.
Romantic relationships thrive on equality to last.
A sugar arrangement, on the other hand, came with fewer complications.
Before meeting Su Bai, Chen Yusheng had never been interested in any man.
The lack of intellectual and emotional connection was one thing, but practical considerations also played a role.
She came from a modest family and was more inclined toward academic pursuits and research.
Raised by a single mother who was now ill, she had no one else to rely on.
Her personality and hobbies were unconventional, unlike most girls.
Apart from her striking beauty, she’d probably be seen as a burden by most men—
A broken, complicated existence.
But Su Bai was so wealthy!
He shattered every one of her worries and fears.
Besides, her mother’s condition couldn’t afford further delays.
From every angle, accepting Su Bai’s offer was the optimal choice.
As a top student, she loved rational analysis.
And on top of that, there was the emotional premise—she and Su Bai just clicked perfectly.
Case proven. Instantly, she embraced her new role as his sugar baby!
...
The sudden kiss from Chen Yusheng—along with her intoxicating fragrance—left Su Bai’s mind reeling.
He quickly drove them to the JW Marriott Hotel.
The river-view suite he’d booked for a week was still available, though Zhou Jialu had already moved her things to the Ascott Riverside Villa.
It was usable, but Su Bai wanted something better.
After checking with the front desk, he learned the presidential suite was free.
The price was jaw-dropping: ¥7,888 per night.
A favorite among the wealthy.
With it vacant for the next few days, Su Bai didn’t hesitate—he booked it for five nights straight.
[Ding! Detecting host’s indulgent spending—checking into presidential suite. Triggering 7x cashback reward: +¥276,080.]
Watching Su Bai reserve the most extravagant room, Chen Yusheng’s lashes fluttered faintly, a quiet warmth blooming in her chest.
She knew his spending habits were lavish, but choosing the finest suite for their first time made her feel truly valued.
Up the elevator, into the suite.
Su Bai barely had time to turn around, his thoughts still scattered, when Chen Yusheng eagerly pulled him into another kiss.
Her boldness caught him off guard.
He’d assumed a girl like her—pure, reserved—would be at least a little shy about intimacy.
Who could’ve guessed…?
Hell, her intensity even made him blush.
The fiery passion hidden beneath her icy exterior crashed into him. After a brief pause, Su Bai matched her fervor.
Soon, both lost themselves in the moment.
...
"Big Goose, I want to be with you… forever!"
...
Much later.
The suite’s lights dimmed to a romantic glow.
The TV played the latest anime series.
Side by side, the two young lovers—fresh from their "strategic collaboration"—watched with shared delight.
Su Bai’s arm curled around her slender waist.
Chen Yusheng’s legs, still sheathed in black stockings, stretched endlessly across the couch.
...
Even now, Su Bai couldn’t stop savoring the memory. He squeezed her thigh playfully.
"Yusheng, you’re full of surprises."
"Of course." She shot him a smug glance. "I’ve studied just as much ‘educational material’ as you."
Su Bai froze before realizing she wasn’t talking about textbooks.
Damn!
He’d always known Chen Yusheng was his mirror in another form, but even in this realm, her tastes matched his.
Compared to senior Zhou Jialu, they were polar opposites.
Zhou Jialu looked like a seductress but was pure at heart—even a peck on the cheek made her shy, a trait ingrained deep despite being wholly his now.
Chen Yusheng? Cold outside, molten within.
Once she claimed you, dragged you inside, it was hard to tell who was playing whom…
Su Bai cracked open a post-coital cola.
As the anime’s credits rolled, Chen Yusheng paused it, shifted closer, and straddled him.
Su Bai: "…?"
"One episode, one round."
"Seriously?! The runtime’s barely 20 minutes without ads!"
"Oh? Is that too much for you? My bad." Her thoughtful tone implied a reassessment of his stamina.
That stung his pride.
With his peak-human physique and legendary endurance? Hell no.
He flipped the script, launching a counteroffensive against the audacious nerd.
...
A 13-episode season usually took under five hours to binge.
They stretched it to twelve.
From dusk till dawn.
Along the way, Su Bai discovered something delightful:
Chen Yusheng had garbage stamina but freakish endurance.
You little—
Still, she was human.
Su Bai, blessed by the System, got his energy fully restored after the all-nighter was flagged as "indulgence."
Chen Yusheng, however, barely lasted till the finale before collapsing onto the bed.
"Big Goose… you’re amazing… So sleepy…" Mumbling, she passed out mid-sentence.
