This content, this tone, just doesn't sound serious at all.

Come once, come what once?

Shen Wanci met Bo Jingzhou's pressing gaze. She couldn't understand what he was saying, and she didn't think he understood either.

Qin Yuezhi mysteriously squinted her eyes, pointed two fingers at her, and whispered in a voice she thought no one else could hear: "Fifty yuan once, two for the price of one. Handsome looks, good figure, and most importantly, good skills..."

Before the last note faded, Qin Yuezhi was dragged away by Huo Tingdong's arm.

"Oh dear..."

Qin Yuezhi was already unsteady on her feet, and when he dragged her like that, she felt like she'd been stuffed into a high-speed spinning washing machine. All she could think about was the dizziness. She couldn't even remember who she had been talking to just now.

"Let me go, I'm a little... nauseous."

She frowned, rejecting Huo Tingdong's help. Just as she pushed his hand away and was about to take a step, her body went uncontrolled and swayed to the side.

Luckily, the man had been keeping an eye on her. Seeing that things were going wrong, he immediately pulled her back in.

From the garden to the parking lot, there was quite a distance. Huo Tingdong supported Qin Yuezhi as they walked for a few steps. He found her walking too slowly and swaying like a top, so he directly scooped her up in his arms.

Qin Yue's place was a bit far from Yuting Courtyard. Huo Tingdong thought for a moment and directly told the driver his address.

In the Erhuan area, a large flat with over 200 square meters, facing south. The living room overlooks Kyoto's largest artificial lake, and the bedrooms overlook the courtyard. It's very airy on both sides.

Huo Tingdong placed Qin Yuezhi on the sofa and went to the kitchen to make her a bowl of hangover tea.

Qin Yuezhi was slightly more awake now. She sat up from the sofa in a gloomy and distorted posture, took the bowl he handed her, and sipped while scanning the empty living room with her eyes, “Is this your home? Why is it so cold and deserted?”

The house was big but sparsely furnished. There was a leather sofa, gleaming tiles, huge floor-to-ceiling windows, and cold white light. It felt incredibly impersonal and chilling.

Fortunately, I turned on the underfloor heating in advance. Otherwise, with just this renovation, I couldn't stay here for a second.

"The renovation company can handle it themselves."

He only picked a template.

Qin Yue didn't say anything, and it was unclear whether she was drunk and hadn't heard him or simply speechless. Huo Tingdong rarely saw her so quiet. She was like a little hamster, quietly sipping soup from her bowl. He reached out and gently ruffled her hair, "Drink slowly, I'm going to take a shower."

Reeked of oil and soot.

Qin Yue dodged with a grimace, "Don't touch me, or I'll go bald."

Huo Tingdong went to take a shower. As he left, he placed the TV remote in front of her: "If you're bored, watch some TV for a while. I'll help you make the bed when I get out."

He is the only one living in the house. All the beds in the rooms other than the master bedroom need to be made up.

Qin Yuezhi put down the empty bowl. She was now in a state of mental excitement and physical fatigue, meaning her brain was buzzing while her body felt drained. Even if she were brimming with passion, she wouldn't be able to pull off anything major in this state.

Unable to sleep and too lazy to move, she took out her phone to prepare for two rounds of games.

Qin Yuezhi first spent fifty yuan to find two handsome companions with good voices, and then went to pull Shen Wanci. As a result, that flirtatious and shallow friend didn't pay her any attention for half a day.

"Hello, Miss. Are we starting?"

The voice is clean and has a youthful, sunny brightness to it.

"Baby, miss me?"

This is a bit of a rogue voice, the kind that girls love—that charming, bad boy sea king type. He's a familiar face too, we've sparred before.

"Come on, didn't this just happen to you? My friend isn't coming, so let's start without her."

After taking a shower, Huo Tingdong saw the woman who was staggering drunk just moments ago. Now, she was sitting cross-legged on the sofa, holding her phone and playing games with intense passion. There was no sign of drunkenness whatsoever.Apart from the game background sound coming from the receiver, there were also two men's voices. They kept calling her "little sister," "baby," and "sweetheart," showering her with all sorts of sickeningly sweet and heart-warming words like they were free.

Qin Yuezhi was so happy that she blossomed, her hands flying across the screen as if enjoying being coaxed by sweet words: "Hurry up, BOSS is about to be killed..."

Before she could finish her sentence, her phone suddenly flew out of her hand. Qin Yuezhi looked up, her gaze following her phone until it landed in the hands of Huo Tingdong, who was wearing a robe.

A man lowered his head to look at his phone screen. A group of people were surrounding a stump with eyes and a mouth, attacking it with various skills and weapons flying everywhere.

The man on the phone urged, "Baby, sweetheart, what are you doing? Move a little! You're really killing me with this, if you don't move, I swear my blood will be drained."

This monster releases a kind of bug when it uses its ultimate move. The bug lands on people and keeps sucking their blood. Without healing in the team, you can only endure the damage until you defeat the monster.

The young man coquettishly said, “Little sister, we're having an event recently. You can get a yearly card, only 16,888 yuan and you can play unlimited hours every day. We also have a gold card, you can order food, and as long as it's our company's companion player, you can choose any one, just 28,888 yuan oh, 24-hour service, if you're not satisfied, you can change people at any time.”

And besides playing games online, the Diamond Card also offers offline companionship. Since it's almost Chinese New Year, if you're under pressure from your family to get married, we can pretend to be your boyfriend to appease them, but this requires a Diamond Card. Little sister, I'm almost reaching my monthly sales target, could you help me push it over the line? If I don't reach it, I'll be penalized.

He'd seen Qin Yue get a couple of readings before, and from what his colleagues said, he always tipped generously after each session. Knowing this guy was loaded, he made a final push to sell him something right before the reading ended.

Even if you only handle a basic annual card, with a 10% commission, you'll still earn over a thousand. If you complete the total sales target, there are also additional rewards.

When Huo Tingdong talked about business, his voice was very serious, with a strong sense of pressure: "Guiding consumption violates the Consumer Rights Protection Law. If what is said deviates from the actual existence, it can be prosecuted for fraud..."

"..."

Both ends of the phone were silent, with only the sound of the game echoing in the air.

Huo Tingdong directly closed the app and condescendingly threw his phone to her side.

Qin Yuezhi only then came to her senses and hurriedly scrolled through the screen to see which app was running. Sure enough, there were no games: "What did you do? I was about to win."

"This is the one you bought for fifty dollars, who's handsome, has a good figure, and a good voice…"

He was at a loss for words, not knowing what to say. Man?

Watching as I was about to win, the game got shut down. Who can understand this kind of game? I'm so angry I want to kill him. Qin Yue glared at him angrily: "Yeah, the game was going well, compared to you, it's better in every way."
