Going home for Chinese New Year, I squeezed onto a bus with three energetic young women.

The car came to a stop downstairs at the Pingxian Web Series Studio.

Four energetic young women giggled and jumped out of the car.

"You guys go up first."

Bai Li held the steering wheel with one hand and gestured with his chin towards the window:

"I'm going to buy something over there, I'll be back in a bit."

"Okay, big brother, hurry up. Wang Wei has probably already set up the machine." Chen Tingting tossed her red hair and led the girls up the stairs to the second floor.

Bai Li turned off the car, opened the door, and got out.

Yesterday I bought a small gift for each of the four girls, but I forgot to buy one for Jiang Ruyue and Li Mengmeng.

Li Mengmeng's big yellow girl was just fed last night and didn't go out today, so the gift will be given next time.

Since Jiang Ruyue is coming today, we should make arrangements for her first.

This girl is a proper heiress; it wouldn't be appropriate to give her some cheap, low-quality stuff.

Bai Li wandered over to an imported jewelry counter next door.

After much deliberation, I chose a uniquely designed sterling silver bracelet with a starry design.

The price was just over a thousand, which was exactly the daily investment limit at the beginning of the system.

Holding the exquisitely packaged little box, Bai Li slowly climbed the stairs.

As soon as I pushed open the studio door, I saw a tall figure wearing a white pleated skirt.

Jiang Ruyue is dressed in an extremely pure and innocent style today.

Her long, straight black hair fell smoothly down her back, and her delicate, youthful face looked so tender it seemed like you could pinch water out of it.

A pair of long, straight, and white legs stood obediently to the side.

Standing next to the four flashy, spirited young women in the room, they seemed to be from two completely different dimensions.

"You're here quite early." Bai Li stepped forward and casually handed over the small pink box in her hand.

Jiang Ruyue blinked her clear, big eyes twice, looking at the box, her hands behind her back without moving.

"For me?" Her uniquely cool and cute voice rang out in the room.

"What else? I bought it on the way, just keep it and play with it." Bai Li handed the box forward.

Jiang Ruyue blushed slightly, looked down at her toes, and spoke much softer.

"You helped me resolve my family's conflicts, and I haven't even had a chance to thank you yet, so how can I accept your gift?"

Her bewildered, well-bred demeanor made the maids around her restless.

Zhang Qian, sporting a head of blue hair, came over and put her arm around Jiang Yue's shoulder: "Oh, Ruyue, just accept it."

"Exactly." Li Jiaxin put her hands in her pockets, her eyes beneath her purple bangs revealing a hint of self-righteousness.

"We all received gifts yesterday, and since you're one of our own sisters, you should receive one too. It's from your eldest brother, so why not take it?"

After being egged on by the group of energetic young women, Jiang Ruyue obediently stretched out her hands and took the pink box.

Wang Wei, who was adjusting the lighting panel nearby, had already been watching this side.

Upon hearing that the four delinquent girls from yesterday had received gifts, and now even this rich young lady had one, Wang Wei threw down his reflector and eagerly came over.

"Brother Li!" Wang Wei's chubby face was plastered with a fawning smile:

"I want a present too! You can't just think about your sister and ignore your brother's life or death!"

Bai Li glanced at him sideways.

"Fine," Bai Li scoffed, not uttering a single kind word.

"I'll go downstairs later and buy you a Spring Breeze Fairy. You can take it home and play with it tonight."

Wang Wei's chubby face slumped, and all his features squeezed together:

"Why is this the kind of thing I get?"

He hesitated for a moment, then brazenly spoke:

"And the new one I just bought is the Spring Breeze Elf."

"Brother Li, why don't you buy me that 'Tender Cat Girl' model with automatic heating? It has real sound effects."

The voice just fell.

Jiang Ruyue was still examining the box in her hand.

Upon hearing this, she looked up, her innocent, first-love face now serious.

She blinked her clear eyes, stared at Wang Wei, and asked a question that struck at the very core of her being with utmost seriousness.

"What about the old one?"

The air in the entire studio seemed to freeze for two seconds.

The four young women were shaking from trying not to laugh, and Chen Tingting was laughing so hard she almost cried, pounding the wall and slapping her thighs.

Wang Wei scratched the back of his head and actually started to think about it seriously.

"The old ones... I put the old ones away..."

"Fuck you!"

Bai Li couldn't stand it anymore and kicked Wang Wei in the butt:

"Are you ever going to shut up? Stop corrupting good students! Go do your work!"

Wang Wei rubbed his buttocks, and muttered in a low voice, looking aggrieved:

"Who knows who's leading whom astray? They know more than I do..."

Bai Li turned to look at Jiang Ruyue: "Take it, it's a token of my brother's affection."

Jiang Ruyue stopped refusing, put the box into her bag, and had a satisfied smile on her lips.

[Ding! The host has completed the emotional and material investment in the target goddess Jiang Ruyue.]

[Trigger a 30x bonus!]

[30,000 yuan has been transferred to the host's bank card.]

Bai Li's phone vibrated in his pocket. He took it out and glanced at the text message. His balance had increased to 780,000.

The speed at which this money comes in is even more outrageous than a money printing machine.

Just then, Chen Tingting touched her chin and walked over to Bai Li in her Martin boots.

"Brother, I found out the answer to what I told you last night in the group chat this morning."

She casually tossed her tattooed arm aside and leaned against the prop box.

"Those people in the group are looking for you and Zhang Qian. They're supposedly from a top-tier heiress in Yun City."

"I was playing a game the other day and someone insulted me so badly that I posted a reward to find them throughout the city."

Chen Tingting pursed her lips and snapped her fingers:

"However, according to the person who accepted the bounty, the young lady wasn't seeking revenge out of anger."

"They said that as long as they can find your contact information, there will be a reward."

Bai Li raised an eyebrow, quickly reviewing recent events in her mind.

A few days ago, I played Delta Force with Zhang Qian, and we encountered a terrible Dr. Bee who loved to cause trouble.

In the end, he even added that person as a friend, but Bai Li never went online again after that.

What a small world!

That noob teammate who got yelled at and cried was actually a woman?

And she's a well-known heiress in the city?

However, upon hearing that the other party showed no hostility, Bai Li became somewhat curious.

A pampered young lady, who was scolded like that in the game, went to great lengths to find the person, but it wasn't for offline real-person PK.

This brain circuitry is truly extraordinary.

As for fear, Bai Li never even entertained that thought.

Zhao Donghai, the top boss of Yunshi, was turned into his most loyal subordinate by the system last night.

In this territory, even if Bai Li walks around with his head held high, no one would dare to utter a single word against him.

Moreover, if we're really talking about background, Li Mengmeng, who lives in Villa No. 2, and Jiang Ruyue, who is standing in front of us, both have families with powerful connections.

"Since she's willing to pay for someone, why not take the money?"

Bai Li pulled over a folding chair, sat down, crossed his long legs, and adopted a posture of watching a good show:

"Tingting, send my and Zhang Qian's WeChat IDs directly to the person offering the reward. Getting tens of thousands of yuan from her for free wouldn't be bad."

Chen Tingting gave an OK sign, took out her phone, and started operating it.

Jiang Ruyue stood aside and listened carefully to their conversation.

She took two steps forward and stood beside Bai Li's chair, her aloof and ethereal face filled with seriousness.

"It's alright, just let her come."

Jiang Ruyue suddenly spoke, her uniquely cool and cute voice echoing in the studio.

"I don't know what she's so arrogant about, making such a big fuss to come looking for my brother Sao Gen."

She slightly raised her chin, enunciating each word clearly, creating an extremely strange contrast between her worldly air and her innocent attire:

"I'd like to see who she can outmaneuver in Ping County."

Bai Li was taken aback by these words and looked up in surprise, staring at Jiang Ruyue's pure and innocent face.

"How can you, a rich girl from a wealthy family, speak so slickly?" Bai Li couldn't help but retort.

The four energetic young women next to them were incredibly excited.

Li Jiaxin tossed her purple hair and gave a thumbs-up:

"As expected of the soldiers we trained. In a word, they're wild!"

Lin Xiaoshuang, with his blond hair, nodded vigorously, his face full of admiration:

"Ruyue's aura is absolutely commanding!"

Just as the girls were making a fuss, Chen Tingting's phone rang.

She glanced down at the screen, waved her tattooed arm, and her face was filled with undisguised elation.

"Big brother! The money really arrived!"

Chen Tingting held up her phone and shoved the payment screen in front of everyone.

"A whole thirty thousand yuan! This rich girl is really foolish and has too much money!"

Her red hair swayed wildly with her movements, and she couldn't stop smiling.

"Great! With this money, we're one step closer to saving enough for my brother's dowry!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Xiaoshuang and Li Jiaxin cheered with joy.

He even started to plan how to manage the 30,000 yuan so that he could marry Bai Li as soon as possible.

Bai Li sat in the chair, her lips twitching slightly.

These wild girls have never had a normal brain circuit.

He follows me around every day, never spending a penny of the money I give him, his only thought is to save money to marry me.

He glanced down at the 780,000 yuan balance in his bank account.

The system gives him gold coins every day, and these women are always trying to shower him with money.

With this goddess investment system, I have more money than I can ever spend.

Where will this money go in the future?

What's the point of owning your own system?!

Are you saving all of it to buy them cheap hair clips and street vendor goods?

Zhang Qian, who had been leaning against the door, did not join in their commotion.

Her blue hair fell to her collarbone, her brows furrowed, and her eyes were full of suspicion.

"Don't get too excited yet," Zhang Qian said, her arms crossed, her voice tinged with a hint of rationality.

"Since this young lady has no hostility, what exactly is she after by spending so much money and going to so much trouble to find my brother and me?"

Zhang Qian felt increasingly uneasy.

"She came on strong and directly commanded all the young women in Yuncheng."

Zhang Qian squinted at Bai Li's handsome face, a face so striking it could make any woman's legs tremble, and muttered:

"I have a feeling... this rich young lady is probably just someone who's offered herself up for free..."

Chen Tingting clicked her tongue, her tone slightly sour:

"Qianqian is right."

"With your looks and connections, if you went to a high-class nightclub like Heaven on Earth, wouldn't those rich women practically wear out your door every night?"

"Alright, alright, this is getting more and more absurd."

Bai Li waved his hand, preparing to end this absurd topic:

"Does that rich girl have nothing better to do than spend 30,000 yuan just to freeload off me?"

"Do you really think rich people's money comes from thin air?"

"He must have been badly scolded by me while playing games that day, and he can't swallow his anger, so he wants to confront me offline."

Just as he finished speaking, Bai Li suddenly felt a tightening around his waist.

A small hand suddenly pinched the soft flesh of his waist.

Not only did I pinch it, I also spun it halfway around.

Bai Li knew these girls' character all too well.

If I don't get a definite answer today, this flesh on my waist will probably stay bruised for a week.

The will to survive instantly surged.

Bai Li quickly straightened his back and stated his position righteously:

"I swear, they were just doing it out of spite."

The little hand on my waist loosened its grip slightly, but it still stayed there and didn't move away.

Bai Li took out his phone from his pocket:

"If you don't believe me, I'll see right now."

"If someone adds me, their first message will definitely be an insult."

Li Jiaxin tossed her purple hair and leaned closer:

"Then hurry up."

Lin Xiaoshuang, Chen Tingting, and Zhang Qian tacitly surrounded them.

Four brightly colored heads, along with Jiang Ruyue's long, straight black hair, completely blocked Bai Li's view.

Five pairs of eyes were fixed on the screen in Bai Li's hand.

Under immense pressure, Bai Li unlocked her phone and opened WeChat.

An account with a pink anime girl profile picture lies quietly in the application list.

Bai Li swallowed.

He could feel the little hand on his waist starting to gather strength again.

"Watch closely, I'm approving it now. You can see for yourselves how she insults me."

Bai Li took a deep breath, tapped his finger, and clicked "Accept".

The chat interface popped up.

Five or six people in the studio were panting, holding their breath and staring at the white dialog box.

The status bar at the top has changed to "The other party is typing...".

The input took a while; it took a good five or six seconds.

Lin Xiaoshuang gripped Bai Li's arm so tightly that her nails almost dug into his flesh.

A crisp "ding" sounded.

A message popped up.

Everyone craned their necks to look.

The first sentence is normal.

Hello, electric scooter enthusiast. My name is Xie Lingmo.

Bai Li had just breathed a sigh of relief and was about to say, "See? They're here to settle accounts."

The result was less than three seconds.

Another crisp "ding" sounded.

The second message popped up immediately afterward.

I found the movie you mentioned that night, want to watch it together?
