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

[An Yaoyao's affection level -5. Current affection level: -10 (hostility).]

Good guy.

Go straight down to negative ten.

Bai Li's Adam's apple bobbed twice as he swallowed back all those nonsensical, frivolous remarks.

If he says another sarcastic remark, this feud will be sealed forever.

He abandoned his obsequious manner, straightened his back, placed his hands on his knees, and adopted a proper attitude.

"I'm sorry, it was all my fault just now."

Bai Li readily admitted his mistake, his tone sincere:

"Your wig fell off, and your short hair underneath was showing."

"And your voice... is so distinctive."

Bai Li tried her best to steer the conversation towards neutral terms:

"I would really believe you're a boy."

At this point, Bai Li paused, afraid that the girl might think she was discriminating against her appearance and voice, and immediately tried to make amends.

"Of course, it's my fault."

"I should have asked beforehand instead of making assumptions and guessing. It's all my fault."

After hearing Bai Li's explanation, An Yaoyao's gaze, which had been looking at her like she was trash, finally softened a bit.

Although this man deserved a beating, he was quick and decisive in admitting his mistakes.

"I was born with this voice."

"I need to change my hair color frequently because bleaching is too damaging to my scalp. To save time, I just wear a wig."

She provided an explanation.

"Oh! I see. You landmine users are really good at efficiency."

Bai Li seized the opportunity and fawned over him.

They readily agreed verbally.

His eyes, however, involuntarily swept over the area below An Yaoyao's collarbone.

Bai Li was having some doubts.

【You're saying I have preconceived notions?】

With this terrain, anyone would be misled.

Even a pink-haired girl with an A cup has some curves. Yours is practically a basin; can you blame me for mistaking you for a effeminate man?

He kept his complaints to himself, maintaining an apologetic expression on his face.

But An Yaoyao, from Bai Li's shifty gaze, understood his inner thoughts.

She snorted coldly.

"A hypocritical lecher."

This title is perfectly fitting for Bai Li.

Bai Li was momentarily speechless, and was just about to open his mouth to argue that he was a gentleman.

What happened next made him swallow his words.

An Yaoyao raised her fair and slender arm and slipped her hand inside the neckline of her dress.

The fabric was stretched open.

She fumbled around inside for a bit, hooked her fingers onto something, and pulled it out forcefully.

"Sizzle."

She pulled out a loop of the binding strap.

This is not over yet.

Without changing her expression, she twisted her wrist, once, twice, three times.

The long straps were pulled out one after another from her neckline, twirling in mid-air before she casually tossed them into the trash can next to her.

The seal has been broken.

This definitely reaches the level of the third tier, grandfather and his spouse.

Bai Li stared wide-eyed, never expecting that An Yaoyao had actually sealed him away before.

An Yaoyao straightened her collar.

She crossed her arms over her chest, raised her impossibly beautiful face, slightly lifted her chin, and looked at Bai Li defiantly.

"Now..."

An Yaoyao drawled, "Aren't you going to admit your pecs are bigger than mine?"

Bai Li was speechless at this question.

His mind raced as he began to analyze the situation.

First of all, I'm a grown man, and you're a virgin; comparing who has more breasts is completely meaningless.

Secondly, in the third tier, she can only surpass Xiao Shuang and Ling Mo, and only manage a tie with Jia Xin. She's not even as good as Chen Tingting, Zhang Qian, or Jiang Ruyue, let alone Li Mengmeng.

but.

People have to bow their heads under the roof.

Facing a landmine-type character with an affection level of -10 who might pull out a utility knife at any moment.

Bai Li chose the safest rule of survival—following one's heart.

"Older than me!"

Bai Li slapped his thigh, his voice resounding and exaggerated:

"It's not just bigger than me, it's the most magnificent I've ever seen!"

He launched into a blind-speech mode, lacking vocabulary but brimming with emotion:

"With your scale, you're unique in the entire Wen County, no, in the entire Yun City!"

"You're the oldest!"

"This figure is absolutely perfect, there's not a single flaw. You have the best figure I've ever seen in my life!"

Bai Li didn't even pant, piling up all the good words she could think of.

An Yaoyao sat there, listening to Bai Li's shameless flattery.

Her previously tense face relaxed slightly.

No girl would refuse a compliment about her figure, especially from a man who is so handsome.

An Yaoyao nodded, her voice carrying a hint of arrogance.

"You're smart to know what's good for you."

She muttered something under her breath.

[Ding! System notification: An Yaoyao's affection value +2. Current affection value: -8.]

Bai Li looked at the numbers, which were finally no longer showing negative growth, and breathed a long sigh of relief.

That was close.

The situation has finally been stabilized.

But before he could even be happy, he was too excited.

An Yaoyao lowered her hands from her chest.

She leaned forward slightly.

The pupils of those almond-shaped eyes, which had just calmed down somewhat, slowly contracted:

"Now that the question of who is older has been clarified..."

An Yaoyao parted her red lips slightly, speaking each word slowly and deliberately:

"Now, shouldn't we get down to business?"

She stretched out a slender, white finger and pointed at Bai Li.

"Just now."

"In the bathroom."

"You touched my thighs in black stockings that went past my knees."

An Yaoyao recounted his crimes, and with each additional word, her beautiful face grew more dangerous:

"They forcibly took off my underwear again."

"In the end, they even saw me completely naked."

She tapped her fingertip twice in mid-air, finally pointing it at Bai Li's nose:

"Bai Li".

"How do you plan to handle this matter?"
