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

The carriage was silent for a moment.

The two place names collided, creating an awkward echo.

Bai Li looked at Zhang Qian with amusement, only to see her quickly lower her head, her cheeks flushed.

She really couldn't hold back anymore.

She loved Bai Li to begin with, so naturally she wanted him to pick her up and give her a good spanking.

Now that they've eaten their fill and drunk some wine, plus Bai Li's succubus scent, it's true what they say: when you're full and warm, you think of... well, you know.

In any case, the little strawberry bear's dryness and softness cannot be maintained.

"Um..." Zhang Qian's voice was barely audible, her hand unconsciously gripping the leather chair tightly, "I mean... the beds at Hanting are softer."

"I really didn't mean anything by it."

The reason was so flimsy that even she herself didn't believe it.

Li Mengmeng, who was driving, watched Zhang Qian warily through the rearview mirror.

Although she had never been in a relationship, she had at least seen how things work.

Zhang Qian's current flirtatious gaze and restless demeanor clearly indicate that she is in heat!

She was unaware that Zhang Qian had been arranged by Bai Li to stay at Hanting, so she could only let her imagination run wild.

"Hmph." Li Mengmeng tightened her grip on the steering wheel, her mind racing with alarm bells.

You think you can just lure Brother Bai Li to a hotel? Dream on!

Just by looking at Zhang Qian, Li Mengmeng could imagine that if they dared to send her and Bai Li to the hotel,

Zhang Qian will inevitably use violent, ruthless, and crazy methods to seduce the innocent, handsome, and warm-hearted Bai Li.

Don't do that!

Just thinking about it makes my heart ache.

and many more.

Li Mengmeng suddenly realized where Bai Li had mentioned earlier.

Heavenly Palace on the Clouds?

Just now, Brother Bai Li said he was going to the Heavenly Palace on the Cloud Top?

"Brother Bai Li..." Li Mengmeng turned her head, her big eyes sparkling with surprise, even a little incredulous: "Where did you say you were going?"

"The Heavenly Palace on the Clouds," Bai Li said slowly, leaning back in the passenger seat and adjusting to a comfortable position. "If you don't know the way, the car's infotainment system has navigation."

"I know him! Of course I know him!"

Li Mengmeng's voice instantly rose eight octaves; if she hadn't been wearing a seatbelt, she probably would have jumped up.

Her family lives in the Heavenly Palace on the Cloud Top!

She didn't consider the possibility that Bai Li might also live there. As the best affluent area in Ping County, all the apartments there had already been sold out, and even her family's apartment was a second-hand one bought from someone else.

Could it be...?

Was my older brother actually observing and watching me secretly all along?

That's how she found out my home address. Now she's finally going to come home with me and then stage a scene where she meets my parents and we decide to spend our lives together.

Li Mengmeng's little brain started working at lightning speed, automatically conjuring up an eighty-episode sweet romance drama.

That must be it!

"Hehe, Brother Bai Li, you should have said so earlier~" Li Mengmeng couldn't help but smile, her two dimples appearing and disappearing:

"Brother Bai Li, you're so mean! You kept it so well hidden."

Bai Li was taken aback by her sudden blush: "What did I hide?"

"Stop pretending!" Li Mengmeng glared at him playfully.

"My dear! Honestly, why didn't you say so sooner? When did you start liking Mengmeng? And when did you start secretly following her?"

"Just tell Mengmeng directly... Mengmeng is willing..."

As she spoke, the girl blushed, her voice grew softer, and it carried a sweet, self-deluded air.

Looking at Li Mengmeng's self-consolidating expression, Bai Li roughly guessed what she was thinking.

He smiled helplessly, reached out and opened the armrest box, took out the red booklet, and threw it on the center console.

You're overthinking it.

Bai Li lit a cigarette, speaking in a calm tone as if he had just bought a cabbage:

"I just bought it. Since you live there too, that's perfect, it's on my way."

Li Mengmeng caught a glimpse of the property certificate out of the corner of her eye.

That was a unique property ownership certificate for the Heavenly Palace in the Clouds, with large, gold-stamped characters on the cover that were particularly eye-catching.

But this is not the point.

The key point is the certificate number column, which clearly states – [Area A, No. 001].

"Sizzle—!"

The sound of tires rubbing against the ground could be heard.

This time, Li Mengmeng was truly shocked.

I'm overthinking it!

Bai Li actually bought a villa in the Heavenly Palace on the Clouds!!

She pulled the car over to the side of the road, her eyes wide, her hands trembling as she picked up the notebook, glanced at it, and then abruptly turned to look at Bai Li.

"It's still... Villa No. 1?!" Her voice changed, filled with disbelief.

Although Zhang Qian, who was behind her, didn't know much about real estate, she could tell from Li Mengmeng's horrified expression that this house was definitely not ordinary. She forced herself to stay close, despite feeling hot and bothered.

"What's wrong? Is this number some kind of big shot?"

"It's not just cows..."

Li Mengmeng swallowed:

"In Ping County, the Cloud Top Palace is a symbol of status. Even a regular detached house costs several million."

"But this villa... it's the king of the houses!"

"It's built on the hillside in the best spot with a panoramic view of the entire city. The developer originally built it as the flagship property of the development and never intended for sale to the public. I heard that a coal mine owner once tried to buy it with 20 million yuan in cash, but he was kicked out before he even got inside."

"This isn't just about money, it's about...it's about status!"

Li Mengmeng felt that her worldview had been refreshed.

Can writing novels really lead to this level of success?

Or is it that Bai Li's brother's identity is not as simple as it seems on the surface?

Is writing novels just a disguise for him to experience life?

Just like the protagonists in those super-rich novels, he is actually the heir of a powerful family or a hidden tycoon.

The more I think about it, the more reliable it seems.

Otherwise, how do you explain that Panamera?

How do you explain his calm and composed demeanor?

How do you explain that he was able to get his hands on Villa No. 1?

"Alright, stop imagining things."

Bai Li reached out and flicked Li Mengmeng's forehead, interrupting her reverie:

"It's just a place to stay, nothing that's so mysterious. Hurry up and drive, I'm sleepy."

This is why the system gives such a generous reward.

If Bai Li were to buy it himself, he might not be willing to waste the money.

But since it's being given away for free, the higher the standard, the better.

Li Mengmeng covered her forehead and laughed foolishly.

pain.

But it's so sweet.

Regardless of Bai Li's identity, the place he's going to is in the same neighborhood as his home!

As the saying goes, those who are near the water get the moon first.

If you live close by, you'll have plenty of excuses to ask for meals, borrow soy sauce, or even hugs when you're afraid of the dark.

This is fate!

"Yes, sir! Brother Bai Li, hold on tight, we're about to take off!"

The Panamera's engine let out a deep roar, like a beast awakened, as it sped toward the brightly lit mountaintop in the night.
