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

The noise from the food stalls was left behind.

Bai Li was carrying a takeout bag in one hand, which contained freshly cooked mutton hot pot.

Jiang Ruyue stood with her hands behind her back, her white pleated skirt swaying gently with her steps.

She sniffed and her gaze fell on the takeout bag in Bai Li's hand.

A hint of doubt appeared on her fair and delicate face:

"Brother Sao Gen, didn't you eat your fill?"

"Why are you ordering another one?"

Bai Li shook the bag in her hand and casually replied:

"This place has really authentic flavors; I bought it for Mengmeng."

Upon hearing those three words, Jiang Ruyue stopped in her tracks.

Her clear, large eyes darted around twice, scanning Bai Li repeatedly.

"Why didn't you bring her any before?"

Jiang Ruyue acted like a little adult interrogating a criminal:

"Has your relationship with Sister Mengmeng gotten even better?"

These words immediately caused an uproar among the girls walking nearby.

Chen Tingting rolled her eyes dramatically.

"Is there even a need to guess?"

"Don't you know what kind of person our boss is?"

Li Jiaxin, hands in her pockets, kicked a small pebble from the roadside, her words dripping with venom.

"you do not say."

"My older brother was born in the Year of the Dog."

"If we don't keep an eye on them for even a moment, they'll run off to someone else's place."

Zhang Qian tidied her long blue hair, adding a sarcastic remark:

"That's right."

"Villa No. 1 is just a few steps away from Villa No. 2. Brother, you're very quick on your feet."

Jiang Ruyue blinked twice, clearly not understanding.

Bai Li, having his past exposed in the street by these girls, coughed twice and simply raised his head to pretend to study the moonlight tonight.

Arguing with these jealous people is pointless.

He took out his phone, turned on the screen, and glanced at it.

It was past seven o'clock in the evening, and the night breeze was getting chilly.

"Alright, alright, stop complaining."

Bai Li put away her phone and turned to look at Jiang Ruyue:

"Kisaragi, it's almost time. Shouldn't you go back?"

Jiang Ruyue stood there, stunned.

Two seconds later, she slowly widened her beautiful eyes, stretched out a slender, white finger, and pointed to the tip of her nose.

"Are you kicking the nest out?"

He was so anxious that even his pronunciation became trembling.

Bai Li was amused by the little girl.

"I didn't kick you out."

"It's not good for a girl like you to stay out all night."

Bai Li adopted the demeanor of an elder and began to reason with them:

"Your parents finally agreed to let you go out to play. If you don't come home at night, will they dare let you go out again?"

Jiang Ruyue didn't buy into that kind of high-sounding reasoning at all.

"I'm not replying!"

She grabbed Bai Li's arm with both hands and fell downwards.

His two legs seemed to be rooted to the ground.

"I'm not replying!"

The volume was turned up, and passersby couldn't help but look over.

Bai Li's brain was throbbing.

This girl, besides being a bit naive and somewhat idiotic, is also incredibly stubborn!

He placed his hand on the back of her head and stroked her hair down.

"Be good, go back and pack your schoolbag, you can come out to play again during the holidays." He coaxed patiently.

Jiang Ruyue didn't care about any of that.

She puffed out her cheeks, her eyes brimming with tears, her grievances so overwhelming they could drown a person.

It seemed that if Bai Li dared to refuse even half a word, she would lie down on the spot and roll around in the middle of the road.

"I'm not going back! I'm not going back!"

She shook Bai Li's arm forcefully:

"I'm sleeping at Sister Mengmeng's house!"

Jiang Ruyue began to state her conditions:

"I'm not sleeping at your place anymore, please don't kick me out!"

This girl thought that as long as she didn't sleep in Bai Li's villa, she wouldn't be bothering him.

Please, please~

The last syllable was drawn out, soft and sweet.

Paired with her incredibly deceptive white shirt and pleated skirt, plus those big, watery eyes.

Not to mention Bai Li, even the bones of several men passing by on the street were almost melting from listening to it.

Bai Li sighed.

They were completely under their control.

"Fine, fine, I give up. I really can't do anything with you."

Bai Li spread his hands: "Then go to Mengmeng's place. You have to be good and don't cause trouble when you get there."

"yeah!!!"

Jiang Ruyue, who was teary-eyed just a second ago, jumped up with joy.

Having dealt with this troublesome person, Bai Li dialed the property manager's hotline at the Cloud Top Heavenly Palace.

"Send a car to pick them up at the intersection of Pingxian food stalls."

Less than ten minutes later.

An Alphard was parked on the side of the road.

The property driver got out of the car, jogged over, and respectfully opened the back door.

Passersby stared in disbelief.

In this small county town, luxury cars of this caliber are already rare.

What's even more outrageous is that the car wasn't picking up some big boss.

Instead, there were four brightly dressed young women with red and blue dyed hair, plus a schoolgirl!

Bai Li walked up to the Panamera, opened the car door, and got into the driver's seat.

With a stomp of the accelerator, the engine roared straight toward the Heavenly Palace on the Clouds.

Back in the villa area.

Chen Tingting and the others tactfully returned to Villa No. 1.

Bai Li locked the car, carrying the box of mutton hot pot, and led Jiang Ruyue, who was sticking to him like a little tail, to the front of Villa No. 2.

Bai Li knocked twice on the door with her fingers.

"Knock knock knock".

Soon, the sound of slippers slid in could be heard from inside.

As the door was pulled open.

Li Mengmeng's 24-year-old, legally-looking, loli-like face appeared behind the door.

Today she was wearing a dark blue sailor-style skirt and fluffy bear slippers.

Even at home, this girl's outfit is incredibly striking.

The little girl's walking posture is quite strange.

He can't take big steps with his legs, and even the slightest movement makes his brow furrow.

Even so, Li Mengmeng's face still radiated an irrepressible spring-like joy.

It was a radiant glow, like that of someone who had been thoroughly nourished, making her glow with health.

Upon seeing Bai Li, Li Mengmeng was about to act coquettishly when she caught a glimpse of Jiang Ruyue peeking out from behind him.

"oops!"

Li Mengmeng wasn't intimidated at all; on the contrary, she enthusiastically raised her voice:

"Kisaragi-neechan is here too!"

This greeting is both sweet and gentle.

Bai Li changed his shoes in the entryway, freed his left hand, and wrapped it around Li Mengmeng's slender waist, picking up her petite body.

His right hand steadily supported the takeout box:

"I brought you this lamb hot pot especially for you. Eat some while it's hot to nourish your body."

Li Mengmeng's feet were dangling in the air, but she was not afraid at all.

She naturally leaned on Bai Li's shoulder, her short arms encircling his neck:

"Smack!" Li Mengmeng turned her head and kissed Bai Li on the cheek.

After the kiss, she rested her chin on Bai Li's shoulder and looked at Jiang Ruyue, who was standing at the door changing her shoes.

"Okay, Bai Li~" Li Mengmeng's eyes crinkled, her tone full of provocative smugness.

We arrived at the spacious restaurant.

Bai Li placed the takeout box on the dining table and opened the lid.

Li Mengmeng picked up a piece of stewed lamb chopsticks, which was tender and soft, and ate it with relish.

Jiang Ruyue pulled out the chair opposite her and sat down.

She placed her hands together on the table, her straight black hair cascading down her back.

Those clear, big eyes swept back and forth between Bai Li and Li Mengmeng.

The physical contact was so natural, and the tension in their eyes was unmistakable.

A few days ago, there was still a sense of distance between us, but today it's like we've become completely inseparable after being so close.

"Sister Mengmeng".

Jiang Ruyue blinked twice:

"You really succeeded."

Li Mengmeng swallowed the mutton in her mouth and wiped her mouth with a tissue.

"Hmph..."

She put her hands on her hips and proudly raised her chin:

"Of course. Don't you know who we are!"

Li Mengmeng rolled her eyes and pointed in the direction of Villa No. 1:

"It makes those young women next door bark like dogs all day long."

"Now we've finally eaten meat!"

At this point, Li Mengmeng turned her head and her gaze returned to Jiang Ruyue.

She looked Jiang Ruyue up and down, then grinned broadly.

"Now, you're the only little chef left." Li Mengmeng said, striking while the irony was real.

Jiang Ruyue puffed out her cheeks, her fingers digging into the table, unable to come up with a rebuttal for a long time.

"There's nothing I can do about it; I suffered because of going to school."

Jiang Ruyue took a few deep breaths, trying to save face:

"Otherwise, I definitely would have eaten my fill too!"

Jiang Ruyue really wanted to refute Li Mengmeng, but she couldn't, because she really was the one who hadn't gotten any food yet.

So she could only bitterly suffer in silence.

But even after taking a step back, Jiang Ruyue was still getting angrier and angrier, so she decided to turn her anger towards Bai Li, who was pouring water for a drink.

"Although Sister Mengmeng is really cute."

"That figure, those assets, she really has big breasts and a perky butt. Men really can't resist."

"But I still have to say..."

"You beast!"

Bai Li almost choked on the mouthful of water he had just drunk.

He put down his water glass and retorted without hesitation:

"Can't you speak a little more politely? What kind of vulgar language is this?"

Bai Li tapped the table with his knuckles, adopting the posture of an elder giving a lecture.

"What do you mean by 'big breasts and a perky butt'? Is that something a rich young lady about to go to university should be saying?"

"You're always hanging out with me and these 'spirited girls,' can't you learn something good?"

I thought Jiang Ruyue would fight back defiantly.

Unexpectedly.

Jiang Ruyue did not refute it.

She leaned back in her chair and let out a heavy sigh.

On that tender, youthful face, a kind of worldly wisdom had unexpectedly appeared.

"The wisdom of the ancients is truly remarkable."

Jiang Ruyue crossed her arms and blurted out this sentence out of the blue.

Bai Li raised his eyebrows, showing some interest.

"Oh?" Bai Li thought Jiang Ruyue was finally going to show her academic prowess.

He looked at the little girl with a face full of satisfaction and gently encouraged her:

"How so?"

Jiang Ruyue sat upright.

She tucked a strand of black hair that had fallen across her cheek behind her ear.

She looked straight ahead and spoke in a serious tone.

"For example, I fucking love big asses and big breasts."

The restaurant was completely silent.

Even Li Mengmeng, who was gnawing on mutton next to her, stopped what she was doing and stared at her with her mouth wide open.

Jiang Ruyue completely ignored Bai Li's stunned state.

She continued to reason according to her own logic.

"You said it yourself, speaking like that sounds vulgar and uncultured."

"That's why Newton said: The greater the mass, the greater the attraction."
