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

Su Mei leaned forward:

"How's it going, little chubby? Want to consider coming with your auntie?"

Wang Wei's Adam's apple bobbed up and down as he swallowed a large mouthful of saliva.

These were the lines he had always dreamed of hearing.

Rich woman, gigolo, comeback!

But Su Mei didn't stop. Her red lips pursed slightly, and her breath was as fragrant as orchids.

"If you follow your sister, she'll buy you an A6."

Hearing Su Mei's undisguised seduction and temptation, Wang Wei's small eyes widened, his face turned bright red, and his lips trembled, unable to utter a single word.

Around them, four energetic young women were still holding half-peeled crayfish in their hands.

Chen Tingting pouted and muttered under her breath:

"No wonder she's the landlady; she was just as flirtatious when she tried to seduce the big brother last time."

Zhang Qian rolled her eyes and continued:

"Isn't that right?"

Li Jiaxin threw the crayfish shell in her hand into the trash can and said in a low voice:

"I remember we even scolded her last time."

"We absolutely have to scold them," Lin Xiaoshuang said in a low voice, her eyes full of mischief.

"Last time we insulted her, the white police officer probably would have shot us right away if he saw her coins."

Bai Li overheard the girls' whispers clearly, and his lips twitched.

Then he glanced at Wang Wei, who was still standing there like a wooden stake.

This guy can brag so much when he's really in the thick of it, but how come he's such a complete idiot when it comes to actual combat?

Bai Li put down her water glass, stretched out her long leg, and kicked Wang Wei in the shin.

It wasn't very forceful, but it was enough to bring someone back to their senses.

"Ouch!" Wang Wei cried out in pain.

Bai Li raised his chin, his tone lazy:

"They're asking you a question, are you mute?"

Wang Wei rubbed his calf, his mind a jumbled mess, and the words in his mind just slipped out without thinking.

"Auntie..." Wang Wei's eyes lit up as he stared at Su Mei, "I'm willing, I love your flirtatious way of being..."

The voice just fell.

"Pooh!"

Wang Wei suddenly realized he had said the wrong thing, so he raised his hand and slapped himself on the right cheek.

He quickly changed his tune, shouting at the top of his lungs:

"What auntie, what sister! I'm willing! I'm happy to be older!"

Su Mei was taken aback at first, but then she was amused by Wang Wei's silly and anxious appearance and burst into laughter.

"Giggle giggle..."

Su Mei laughed so hard she almost fell over, her full breasts heaving violently.

She didn't mind Wang Wei's rough words at all; on the contrary, she found the fat man adorably genuine.

She moved closer to Wang Wei, naturally hooking one arm around his and leaning her body against him.

Don't worry.

Su Mei tilted her head back, her eyes sparkling, her voice so sweet it could melt your heart:

"With you, little chubby boy, Auntie won't be so promiscuous anymore. When I get back, I'll chase all those pretty boys away."

She leaned close to Wang Wei's ear, her warm breath hitting his earlobe:

"From now on... Auntie will only take care of you..."

Who can resist this!

Wang Wei felt his blood rushing to his head; he felt he could melt even the Arctic.

They say that finding an old man can cool you down and save you twenty years of detours.

How come when I get here, before I've even met anyone, just hearing a couple of sentences makes me so angry I feel like I'm about to get a nosebleed?

This rich woman is incredibly shrewd!

at this time.

The takeout food on the table was almost completely eaten, leaving a mess on the floor.

It was getting late, so Bai Li stood up and patted the hem of her trench coat.

"Alright, we've eaten and drunk our fill, and we've had enough of today's activities."

Bai Li stretched his shoulders and started calling everyone to go home.

Upon hearing the instruction, the energetic young women immediately sprang into action.

Chen Tingting and Li Jiaxin quickly swept the mess on the table into the trash bag, while Zhang Qian wiped the table with a rag.

Lin Xiaoshuang, like a spinning top, ran off to turn off the water dispenser and check the windows.

On the other side, Su Mei stood up from next to Wang Wei, walked to the bathroom door, picked up a hairdryer, and started drying her clothes.

The humming of the hairdryer drowned out most of the noise.

Taking advantage of this break, Wang Wei sneaked over to Bai Li's side.

He looked around to make sure Su Mei couldn't hear him before leaning close to Bai Li's ear, lowering his voice, his chubby face full of struggle.

"Brother Li..." Wang Wei rubbed his hands together, "Do you think I can really handle her?"

He was genuinely unsure.

Su Mei is a woman who is rich, experienced, and cunning.

Today she's all love and affection, but tomorrow she'll turn on you without a second thought. A penniless loser like me would probably be left with nothing but bones.

Bai Li turned her head and looked at her mischievous friend, her eyes filled with a clear understanding that saw through everything.

"What are you afraid of?"

Bai Li patted Wang Wei's broad shoulder and said with a smile:

"Just ride off into battle. If she dares to bully you, or if you encounter any problems you can't solve, call me."

These words carry immense weight.

For Bai Li, who now has the top official of Yunshi as his subordinate and controls the system's rebate funds, dealing with the troubles of a rich woman in a small county is nothing at all.

This is not only to support Wang Wei, but also to warn that woman who might cause trouble—Wang Wei is under my protection, Bai Li.

After hearing this, Wang Wei's eyes welled up with tears.

He sniffed, his chubby face scrunched up, looking like a wronged 300-pound child.

"brother!"

Wang Wei grabbed Bai Li's arm:

"You're the best! Even your own brothers aren't this loyal!"

Once he got into the mood, Wang Wei's loose tongue started running wild again.

He looked at Bai Li with deep affection:

"Brother Li, if I were a woman, I'd give myself to you right now..."

Bai Li took two steps back in disgust, avoiding Wang Wei who was getting closer and closer to her.

"Get out of here, stop repaying kindness with enmity!" After saying that, he rubbed the goosebumps on his arm with a look of disgust.

"Hehe." Wang Wei chuckled shamelessly.

He turned his head and looked at Su Mei, who was drying her hair not far away.

The visually striking curves of his hips, encased in tight yoga pants, made Wang Wei's gaze harden.

"Brother Li is right. I must believe in myself. Maybe this is true happiness..."

Then, as if remembering something, Wang Wei sighed, his face filled with a sense of vicissitude and nostalgia:

"It's just a pity about that spring breeze spirit that's been with me for two and a half years; it might be ending up in the trash tonight..."

At this point, Wang Wei suddenly straightened his chest and clenched his fists:

"Because, Ah Wei, I..."

Wang Wei's voice rose, carrying the momentum of an awakened chuunibyou (adolescent delusions of grandeur):

"Finally, it's time to grow again! I'm going to conquer even higher peaks!"

Seeing Wang Wei's expression as if he were about to die a martyr, Bai Li shook his head.

He stepped forward, his face serious, his handsome features devoid of any hint of joking.

Bai Li raised his hand and patted Wang Wei's shoulder twice, as if carrying a heavy responsibility:

"Brother, you must take care of yourself..."

Bai Li leaned closer, lowering his voice:

"After all, a woman of this age..."

"It's not much different from a black hole..."
