What are you doing, Mr. President? I'm just an extra!

Gu Qingcheng didn't ask any further about the buttons.

His gaze was somewhat fixed, sweeping back and forth between Lu Li and Shen Weilan.

That look needs no translation; it's all about "Although there's no evidence, I can tell you two were just racing."

"Ahem." Lu Li pulled his collar up, forcibly interrupting the spellcasting. "The sea breeze is too harsh; you'll easily catch a cold. Let's go back."

Shen Weilan immediately followed suit, nodding her head like a chicken pecking at rice: "Yes, yes, yes! My legs are...weak from the cold wind."

Lu Li's lips twitched.

Were you softened by the wind?

That's...

Forget it, what else can I say? If your sister Su catches you, you'll be in for a world of hurt.

……

Back at the villa, none of them were in the mood to cause any more trouble.

The drifting at sea just now was really exhausting. After resting on the sofa for a while, the group went back to their rooms.

The next morning.

After Su Feiyan finished cleaning up the mess at the dock, her car was already waiting outside.

Lu Li volunteered to be a laborer, carrying the luggage of several of his aunts out.

The first few were fine, until he picked up the pink hard-shell case.

Shen Weilan's suitcase.

Previously on the yacht, Lu Li's maneuver around the drainage ditch was indeed cool, but it's also true that the box rolled around the deck more than a dozen times.

The latch was already deformed; it was only hanging on by its last breath.

Lu Li had just picked it up and was about to put it down next to the coffee table.

Click.

A crisp sound.

The pink box cracked open on the spot.

It is a physical crack.

The contents inside, propelled by gravity, gushed out like a mudslide.

Besides the normal clothes and bottles and jars, several extremely bizarre objects rolled arrogantly to the very center of the carpet.

The air suddenly became quiet.

Lying on the carpet was a specially made theatrical costume with very little fabric, its only covering consisting of intricate lace trim.

It also comes with a red choker with a small, golden bell hanging from it.

and also……

Lu Li froze.

Gu Qingcheng froze.

Su Feiyan and Shen Weilan, who had just come downstairs, also froze.

The four of them just stared at the pile of "professional equipment" on the ground.

Gu Qingcheng, an entertainment industry fairy who only goes between the film set and home, is like a CPU that instantly overheats.

The visual impact is no less than seeing Ultraman performing a pole dance.

She tilted her head, still pondering how to wear this thing—whether it was a headpiece or a handpiece.

Lu Li appeared calm and collected on the surface, but inside he was absolutely furious.

Good grief!

[Is this the surprise you wanted to give me last night?!]

[Isn't this... the legendary "catgirl limited edition"? That thing went out of print two years ago!]

[Shen Weilan, you're something else! You usually look like a pure and innocent school beauty with thick eyebrows and big eyes, but you're actually playing this sort of womanizer behind the scenes?]

[High-class! Absolutely high-class! I, Lu, am too narrow-minded; this is how city people do things!]

These thoughts, full of "academic analysis," reached the minds of the three women without any hindrance.

brush!

Shen Weilan's face instantly turned as red as a ripe tomato, and steam even rose from her head.

Su Feiyan narrowed her eyes, her gaze lingering on the pile of fabric for two seconds before sweeping over Lu Li, her expression becoming extremely intriguing.

Only Gu Qingcheng remained oblivious, her brows furrowed, as if she were about to grasp some profound truth of physics.

"This...this isn't mine!"

Shen Weilan reacted extremely quickly, covering her face with her hands, squatting down on the spot, and using the skill [Creating Something from Nothing].

"They must have taken the wrong one at the airport! Or... or maybe that psychopathic killer 'Shadow Assassin' slipped it in!"

She pointed at the object on the ground, her voice trembling with tears: "Yes! It must be that pervert! Didn't he just try to kill me? This must be the tool he used to humiliate me! It's terrifying... I don't want to live anymore..."

Lu Li remained expressionless.

[Keep making things up.]

[You still have your "No Feeding" sticker on the handle of this box, how can you call that taking the wrong thing?]

[And that assassin stuffed it in... He's a professional assassin, not a professional lecher.]

[Besides, this size... a tight-fitting S. With CEO Su's E cup, the buttons would practically pop off into the wall if she wore this.]

Upon hearing the words "buttons popped off," Su Feiyan's originally cold face twitched involuntarily at the corner of her mouth.

Although this bastard's head is full of nonsense, but...

He has a good eye for talent.

They also know the difference between E and D.

Su Feiyan walked forward, her high heels clicking as she went.

She stood in front of Shen Weilan, who was crouching in a defensive position, looking down at her. She didn't expose the clumsy lie, but simply extended her hand.

"Since it's a dangerous threat left behind by 'Shadow Assassin,' it can't stay here."

She bent down and hooked her fingertips around the neck strap with the bell.

jingle--

The crisp sound of the bell echoed in the living room, sending a shiver down one's spine.

Lu Li's heart skipped a beat.

[Hiss—Why is the atmosphere suddenly so dangerous when Her Majesty is holding this?]

She wouldn't be thinking of...

Su Feiyan glanced at Lu Li with a half-smile, picked up the "equipment" slowly and methodically, as if she were packing up an important business contract.

Then, in front of everyone, she stuffed it directly into her Hermès Birkin bag.

Click, the bag is fastened.

"I'm confiscating these pieces of evidence."

After saying that, she turned and walked towards the second floor, leaving everyone with only a cold and stunning back view.

She paused slightly as she passed by Lu Li.

A faint, cool fragrance wafted into Lu Li's nose.

"After you return to Jianghai, come to my office."

The voice was low, only audible to the two of them, and carried a certain meaningful hook: "We need to... examine this 'evidence' carefully."

Lu Li felt a chill down his back, followed by a strange heat.

The carpet is empty.

Shen Weilan stared at the empty floor, tears welling up in her eyes, her heart bleeding.

She spent a fortune to buy it through a personal shopper! She was planning to surprise her brother-in-law with a big "surprise" tonight!

Now look what's happened, everything has gone to my cousin's benefit!

Gu Qingcheng finally came to her senses, looking at Su Feiyan's retreating figure, then at Lu Li's "upright" expression, and muttered to herself:

"So... city people know how to have fun?"

"It seems I still have a lot to learn..."

……

Nothing happened that night (except for Shen Weilan chewing up her handkerchief in bed).

The next day, in the van on the way to the airport.

Lu Li was resting with his eyes closed when the system panel suddenly popped up.

[Ding! Calculation complete.]

[Su Feiyan, who was originally outgoing but inwardly traditional, is experiencing unusual emotional fluctuations, and the shackles binding her affection have loosened.]

[Trigger a special hidden quest: Taming and Being Tamed.]

[Task Description: Please raise its special favorability level to 10.]

[Mission Reward: Unlock the "Perfect Harmony" achievement.]

Lu Li stared at the system panel, lost in thought.

Is this favorability rating system legitimate?

If I'm not being serious... then I won't be sleepy anymore!
