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

Xia Qing felt as if her head had been hit by a heavy hammer, and it was buzzing.

Bai Li?

She instinctively took a step forward, almost twisting her ankle in her high heels.

She pointed at the Panamera gleaming in the sunlight, her voice trembling:

"This...this is your car?"

Old Wang's beady eyes darted back and forth between Bai Li and the car, his face looking even more uncomfortable than if he'd swallowed a fly.

Bai Li wore a black cashmere coat today, with a white shirt underneath, and stood tall and straight like a pine tree.

With the slight enhancement to my appearance from the system rewards over the past few days, I'm even more dazzling than a celebrity standing there.

"What, doesn't it look like it?" Bai Li raised an eyebrow, neither admitting nor denying it.

Xia Qing was stunned for a few seconds, then seemed to have figured something out. The shock on her face quickly faded, replaced by a look of disdain and anger that seemed to see through everything.

"Bai Li, are you serious?"

Xia Qing crossed her arms, raised her chin high, and said in a tone of disappointment:

"I know you still have feelings for me and can't accept that I'm engaged to someone else. But you don't need to put on a brave face, do you?"

She circled Bai Li once, her eyes full of mockery:

"Don't I know what kind of job you did in Shanghai?"

"Ten thousand yuan a month isn't even enough to buy one of the wheels on this car."

"You really went to great lengths to win me back. You must have spent a lot of money renting that place, right? Thousands a day? Or tens of thousands?"

Upon hearing this, the surrounding guests' initial shocked expressions immediately turned into expressions of amusement.

"Oh, so it's rented..."

"Young people these days will do anything to save face."

Upon hearing this, Old Wang immediately breathed a sigh of relief and straightened his back again.

"Hey, I knew it."

Old Wang, with his hands behind his back, adopted the posture of an elder lecturing a younger generation, and said earnestly:

"Young man, a man should be down-to-earth."

"Your vanity only makes people look down on you more."

"You said you're unemployed. If you're really having trouble, just tell me, and I can arrange a security guard job for you at the factory. Why bother?"

Bai Li watched the two of them talking to themselves, looking at them like they were idiots:

"Get your mom a security guard job, to shine my shoes. I'm here to eat, I don't have time to listen to your nonsense."

"You're still pretending!" Xia Qing shouted in a shrill voice, "You think renting a luxury car will make me change my mind?"

"I'm telling you, it's impossible!"

"I just find you ridiculous now! Leaving you was the right thing to do. Someone like you will only ever live at the bottom of society, relying on these deceitful tactics to satisfy your pathetic ego!"

Just then, Chen Tingting, who had been standing behind Bai Li, couldn't hold back any longer.

She swallowed the sausage in her mouth, rolled up her sleeves, revealing her half-covered, still imposing, tattooed arm, though it was hidden by her down jacket.

"Hey you old woman, are you going through early menopause? Are you delusional?"

Chen Tingting pointed at Xia Qing's nose, her voice so loud it could be heard within a ten-meter radius:

"Who gave you the confidence to think my brother is doing this for you? Take a good look at yourself in the mirror; you're not worthy of my brother at all!"

"Exactly," Lin Xiaoshuang chimed in, blinking her big, innocent eyes. "My older brother bought this car five days ago, for 5 million, all cash! Don't spout nonsense."

"Panamera? And in full?" Xia Qing sneered, not believing it at all: "Keep making things up. Do any of you delinquents ever tell the truth?"

Old Wang's gaze became somewhat unfocused at this moment.

He looked at the four girls.

Although their hair color was a bit unconventional, they were all young and radiant, with skin so firm it looked like you could squeeze water out of it.

Especially that blonde girl in the tight sweater, and that blue-haired girl who looked a bit seductive—their figures were absolutely stunning.

Although Xia Qing was dressed exquisitely, the fine lines around her eyes were still visible after she removed her makeup.

"Ahem..." Old Wang cleared his throat, his lecherous little eyes darting back and forth between Chen Tingting and the others.

"Xiao Qing, I didn't expect your old classmate to be so concerned about saving face."

His gaze finally settled on Zhang Qian's long legs, and he swallowed hard. "Young lady, you really are blinded by people like this."

Zhang Qian felt uncomfortable all over from his sticky gaze, as if she were being crawled over by slugs.

She had personally witnessed this fat old man checking into a hotel room, and she felt utterly disgusted.

"What are you looking at?" Zhang Qian suddenly spoke, her voice shrill: "Look again and I'll gouge your eyes out!"

Old Wang was taken aback, not expecting the seemingly most delicate blue-haired girl to be so fierce.

Chen Tingting stepped forward, blocking Zhang Qian's path, hands on her hips, and spat at Old Wang:

"Pah! You old lecher! You're about to get engaged and you're still staring at other women. Aren't you afraid your eyes will rot?"

"You!" Old Wang's fat face trembled with rage. "How dare you talk like that? You ill-mannered wretch!"

"So what if I'm ill-mannered?" Chen Tingting sneered, speaking in a voice that was both loud enough for those around her to hear and yet sounded particularly mysterious.

"It's still better than some people. Not only are they ugly, but they're also useless."

Her gaze swept over Old Wang's lower body with utter contempt, and she clicked her tongue twice.

"Are you both bad at the game and love to play? Why are you pretending to be so great?"

The moment those words were spoken, the room fell into a deathly silence.

Old Wang's face instantly turned a deep liver color, and the veins on his forehead bulged.

This is a great disgrace for a man, especially at his own engagement party!

The surrounding guests gasped, their eyes turning extremely strange, some even covering their mouths and snickering.

Xia Qing was also stunned.

Although she knew that Lao Wang wasn't very good in that area and always finished quickly, how did these young women know about such a private matter?

"What...what nonsense are you spouting!"

Old Wang was so angry that he was trembling all over, and his hand pointing at Chen Tingting was shaking:

"Security! Where's the security?! Get these crazy women out of here!"

"Who dares?" Bai Li stepped forward, blocking the four girls.

His height of 1.87 meters, coupled with his cold aura, instantly made Old Wang take two steps back.

"We gave a monetary gift." Bai Li took out five red envelopes from his pocket and casually tossed them into the gift box next to him.

"Guests are guests, what's wrong? Boss Wang, do you lack even this much tolerance? Did someone hit a sore spot?"

Bai Li wore his signature wicked smile, his eyes full of provocation.

Old Wang looked at Bai Li, then at the guests watching the commotion, and knew that if he called security to remove people now, it would only make him look more guilty.

On this joyous day, if we were to cause a scene, we would only embarrass ourselves.

He took a deep breath, suppressing his anger, and said through gritted teeth:

"Fine...fine! I'd like to see what kind of trouble you can cause!"

After saying that, he grabbed Xia Qing, who was still in a daze, and turned to walk towards the hotel lobby with a dark face.

"Let's go," Bai Li called to the few victorious little hens behind him, "Let's go eat."
