I agreed to be a kept man, but I'm still being punished by the system.

Lin Yang answered the phone, his voice regaining its usual calm and steady tone.

"Hey, Su Man, what's up?"

The voice on the other end of the phone was as capable as ever, carrying an unquestionable sense of command.

"Lin Yang, come pick me up at Junfu Hotel and take me to see the renovation progress of Tianheng Garden."

Lin Yang's brain was working at lightning speed.

He was still thinking of contacting Liu Shanshan, the woman in the high-slit cheongsam who exuded a dangerous aura. The system mission's penalty of "penis shortened by 5 centimeters" was like a knife hanging over his head.

But Su Man... she is the number one in his list of gigolos, the key figure who enabled him to have his current life.

Priorities must be clearly distinguished.

Forget it, let's focus on serving this big client first; Liu Shanshan can put it aside for now.

"Okay, I'll be right there," he replied crisply.

The deep blue Cayenne traced an elegant arc on the road, turned around, and headed towards the Junfu Hotel.

Twenty minutes later, the car came to a smooth stop under the magnificent entrance of the Junfu Hotel.

Lin Yang didn't turn off the engine; he took out his phone and called Su Man.

"Su Man, I've arrived. You can come down now."

"Um."

The call ended after only one short monosyllable was heard from the other end.

Lin Yang leaned back in his seat, his fingers tapping unconsciously on the steering wheel, his gaze fixed on the hotel's revolving glass doors.

Not long after, a beautiful figure appeared in the hotel lobby.

Su Man wore a beige trench coat today, with a clean cut and a belt that accentuated her amazing waist-to-hip ratio.

Beneath the trench coat, a black silk dress was faintly visible, its hem gently brushing against her straight, slender legs as she moved.

JIMMY CHOO's limited-edition high heels clicked rhythmically on the gleaming lobby floor.

The moment she appeared, everyone in the lobby, regardless of gender, was drawn to her.

It was a powerful and confident aura, mixed with the ultimate charm of a mature woman, that made her stand out in the crowd.

Lin Yang got out of the car, walked around to the passenger side, and opened the door for her.

Su Man's gaze fell on him, her eyes sliding from his slightly damp T-shirt to his slightly faded jeans.

Her brows furrowed very slightly, and the gentle curve of her lips tightened a little.

Lin Yang immediately noticed this subtle change in expression.

He knows it perfectly well.

This is the "chief supervisor" scrutinizing the "personal assistant's" appearance.

He didn't say anything, closed the car door, returned to the driver's seat, and started the engine. The Cayenne smoothly merged into the traffic and headed towards Tianheng Garden.

Tianheng Garden, Building 11, 12 stories.

The elevator doors opened, and the two stepped out of the elevator lobby.

It's the weekend, and construction isn't allowed in the community on weekends. Only the fresh air system is operating quietly on site.

Lin Yang looked at the heavy fire door that had already been installed and nodded.

"The property management is pretty fast."

He reached out and pushed the door, adding, "We'll need to add more locks here in the future."

Su Man merely glanced at it indifferently and did not respond.

After passing through the open security door and entering the living room, the dents in the wall caused by Lin Yang and A Fei's fight had been repaired and smoothed out, except that the newly painted wall was a slightly lighter color than the surrounding area.

Su Man stepped forward, extended her slender finger, and gently tapped the repaired area, seemingly checking the quality of the work.

Lin Yang then took out his old cell phone, which he had used for several years, with a noticeable scratch on the screen.

He took several photos of the house, which was in a mess but whose main structure was intact.

Then, he found Liu Shanshan's WeChat account, sent her the photo, and added a note.

Look, they really are renovating! I wasn't kidding you.

After he finished doing all this, he realized that Su Man was standing behind him, her gaze fixed on his old cell phone.

Finally, she couldn't hold back any longer.

"Kobayashi, didn't you have money now?"

Her voice held a hint of confusion, and she finally couldn't help but voice her doubts.

"Why haven't you changed your phone yet? And you should probably change your clothes too. You're a millionaire now."

Lin Yang looked down at his T-shirt and jeans.

"It's okay, these clothes are comfortable to wear."

Su Man's brows furrowed even more deeply this time.

"no."

Her tone left no room for argument.

"How could my man be like this?"

She looked around the empty house: "There's not much to see here. It should be finished in another two or three days. Let's go shopping."

"what?"

Lin Yang uttered a short syllable.

During his four years of studying at Huahai University, the word "shopping" was almost entirely foreign to him.

His life was filled with classes, playing games in his dorm, downloading movies, and going to the gym.

"What do you mean 'huh'? Just come with me."

Su Man rolled her eyes at him, turned around and walked towards the door, her high heels making a crisp sound on the cement floor.

The Cayenne started up again and left Sky Garden.

Guided by Su Man, Lin Yang drove to K11 Art Mall, the most famous shopping center in Huahai.

After finding a parking space and parking the car, Su Man naturally took Lin Yang's arm as soon as she got out of the car.

The coldness on her face faded, replaced by the joy and satisfaction of a young woman in love.

She pulled Lin Yang along and walked straight into a high-end menswear store.

"Change his clothes from head to toe," Su Man said to the approaching store manager, her tone relaxed yet carrying an unquestionable authority.

For the next hour, Lin Yang was completely reduced to a human clothes rack.

He was wearing a well-tailored suit, and the man in the mirror was tall and straight, with broad shoulders and a narrow waist, his presence accentuated by the perfect fabric.

Su Man nodded in satisfaction.

He changed into a soft Loro Piana cashmere sweater, exuding a low-key yet warm elegance.

Su Man shook her head.

"Too gentle, not suitable for you."

He tried on a Tom Ford casual jacket, paired with slim-fitting black trousers, which completely unleashed his wildness that lay between boyhood and manhood.

Su Man's eyes lit up, and she stepped forward to personally straighten his collar.

"This set is nice, and here are some more, wrap them all up."

[Ding! A gift of 128000 yuan has been detected from Su Man, the number one in the "Soft Rice Guide".]

[Points conversion in progress... Current conversion ratio 1:0.05, earning 6400 points.]

The system's notification sounded coldly in Lin Yang's mind.

He felt nothing at all; in fact, he almost wanted to laugh.

So this is what capital injection is all about.

From shirts to leather shoes, from belts to socks, Suman reshaped his outward appearance with an almost obsessive passion.

Lin Yang, dressed in brand-new clothes and carrying shopping bags of various sizes, followed behind Su Man.

Then, he was pulled into a Huawei mobile phone store.

Su Man pointed to the latest foldable flagship phone.

"Give him one."

[Ding! A gift of 16999 yuan has been detected from Su Man, the number one in the "Soft Rice Guide".]

[Points conversion in progress... Current conversion ratio 1:0.05, earning 850 points.]

With the help of the store clerk, all the data on the old phone was quickly transferred to the new phone.

Holding this high-tech new machine, Lin Yang felt a growing disconnect from the struggling recent graduate he once was.

Su Man took his arm and looked at the completely transformed Lin Yang, with his tall and straight figure, handsome face, and impeccable taste.

She examined her "work" with satisfaction, but felt that something was still missing.

Her gaze slid from his face to his neck, and then to his bare wrist.

She remembered.

I'm still missing a watch.

Su Man's eyes narrowed, and she took Lin Yang's hand, turning to walk towards a brightly lit, understatedly luxurious shop not far away.

Patek Philippe.

She pulled Lin Yang into the store.
