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

"Holy crap, bro, someone's yelling for help outside! Are they stabbing someone?!"

Chen Tingting bit her tongue piercing and grabbed Bai Li's trench coat sleeve.

Bai Li felt a tightness in his chest because...

Jiang Ruyue had only been downstairs for less than fifteen minutes...

Just as he was pondering this, his phone vibrated twice in quick succession in his pocket.

Bai Li took it out and looked at it; the screen lit up.

Jiang Ruyue: [I...am home...]

Those four simple words put Bai Li's mind at ease.

As long as it's not one of our own people who gets into trouble, it's fine.

"You all stand back, I'll go open the door," Bai Li instructed.

The four energetic young women were surprisingly obedient, and they all quickly retreated behind the sofa.

Bai Li gripped the doorknob with one hand and pressed it down.

The wooden door opened.

A limp figure, completely losing its support, slumped in through the door frame and landed squarely on Bai Li's trouser leg.

Bai Li reacted extremely quickly, taking half a step to the side.

Thump~

The figure lost its footing and fell straight to the floor with a dull thud.

The large apartment was brightly lit, and everyone peeked out.

"Holy crap? Isn't that the landlady?"

Zhang Qian was the first to recognize the iconic bodycon yoga pants.

The arrogant landlady who had insisted on making Bai Li her lover was now in a terrible state.

Her neatly styled hair had long since come loose, and her hair, soaked with sweat, clung to her cheeks and neck.

Bai Li looked down at him from his vantage point.

The woman was clean and tidy, with no knife wounds or signs of being beaten.

But she was fidgeting restlessly on the floor, her legs, clad in yoga pants, rubbing together unconsciously.

Her cheeks were extremely red, even the base of her neck was pink, and she was breathing rapidly.

Wang Wei squatted down to the side and glanced at it twice, then shrank back:

"Brother Li, something's not right. Let's call the police right away, or we'll be the ones getting blamed."

When encountering something of dubious origin, calling the police is the most innocent way to handle it.

Unexpectedly, the landlady on the ground seemed to be stimulated; she bit her lower lip hard, using the pain to gain a very brief moment of clarity:

"No...no need..." The landlady gasped for breath and shook her head repeatedly.

A woman like her, who owns several storefront properties, is a prominent figure in the county.

If this gets reported to J, the whole city will know she was given that rotten drug within half a night.

I don't want to lose face completely.

She used all her strength and reason to say those words, and at that moment the effects of the drug surged back like a tsunami.

The landlady let go and began frantically scratching herself.

"The water...it's so hot..."

She let out a whine of discomfort, tugging at the collar of her shirt and pulling it desperately to both sides.

Zhang Qian quickly took out a blanket and threw it on her.

Chen Tingting slapped Wang Wei on the back:

"What are you standing there for! Bring her in!"

Li Jiaxin also walked over and kicked Wang Wei's chubby butt:

"Hurry up! Don't you dream of finding a rich woman every day?"

"Now that God has thrown a rich woman right in your face, you're still pretending to be innocent!"

Wang Wei was kicked twice, and he hurriedly squatted down:

"Oh, oh, oh! Yes, yes, yes! I'll do it!"

He reached out with both hands, wrapped his arms around the landlady's back and the back of her legs, gritted his teeth, and pushed upwards with all his might.

"Oh my god!"

Wang Wei almost strained his back from the weight.

Don't be fooled by this woman's slim figure in yoga pants; once you touch her, you'll find she's incredibly fleshy and plump, like a ripe, heavy woman.

With her body burning hot and her squirming in Wang Wei's arms, Wang Wei felt his nose filled with the scent of her perfume mixed with her sweat, making his head buzz.

"Bang."

Bai Li locked the door behind her and then pulled the blinds facing the street closed.

This kind of troublesome matter must be handled with absolute secrecy.

Wang Wei, his face flushed, ran all the way and dumped the person into the carpeted open space of the rest area.

As soon as he let go, Wang Wei started slapping his face repeatedly:

"Oh my god, it's so hot, like a giant furnace. I'll go find some ice water and a bathtub for her to soak in."

He turned around and prepared to go to the ice machine to check if there were enough ice cubes.

But it was too late.

After being laid flat, the effects of the drug amplified the landlady's sense of emptiness exponentially.

Her mind had been controlled by the Happy Bean, and she desperately needed to find something to cling to.

Hearing footsteps, she couldn't even open her eyes, completely following the man's scent, and rolled on the spot.

He managed to grab Wang Wei's right leg.

"It's...it's so uncomfortable..."

"Help...help me..."

The landlady clung to Wang Wei, climbing up his thighs, her eyes filled with allure and a hint of pleading.

"It itches... my scalp is so itchy..."

Wang Wei was now on the verge of tears.

He's an honest man, and he just had a scumbag girlfriend run off with his money. He complains every day about wanting to take shortcuts and live off women.

Now, the shortcut is right there on him.

This rich woman owns shops, has plenty of money, and possesses a stunningly beautiful figure with a prominent bust and buttocks.

If he goes with the flow now, he can resolve the issue on the spot.

Once the rich woman regains consciousness, she will definitely offer him a bribe to keep him quiet.

This is a classic tale of a son-in-law's rise to power.

But Wang Wei looked at the unconscious woman in his arms and swallowed hard.

He raised his hands above his head, refusing to touch the woman even once.

A man can be poor, he can be lowly.

But we must not be animals that take advantage of others' misfortunes.

They're not even thinking straight right now; if I were to go up to them now, I'd be a piece of trash.

"Don't worry, ma'am, let go of me! I'll go get you some ice water right away!"

Wang Wei backed away while trying to pry the other person's hands off.

But the landlady was surprisingly strong; her fingernails dug directly into the flesh of Wang Wei's leg.

Not only did she not let go, but she also crossed her legs, as if she was about to do Wang Wei right there on the floor.

Wang Wei was completely out of ideas, and a layer of sweat broke out on his forehead.

He turned around and yelled at the young women standing by watching the commotion.

"Quick... ladies... can I borrow your slippers?"

This seemingly random question left the four girls on the outside completely bewildered.

Zhang Qian took a step forward in her high heels, her long blue hair swaying, and spoke with a puzzled expression.

"What are you doing?"

Wang Wei was so anxious he was jumping up and down on the spot, but he didn't dare to actually kick the landlord.

"Let me pat her!"

Chen Tingting couldn't stand it any longer, put her hands on her hips, and blurted out a string of profanities:

"Get lost!"
