After school, he was then offered himself to a succubus.

Chapter 104 Altitude Count (Please subscribe, meow~)

"Are you still going to come with me?"

"Hmm...I want to go with it."

"Then that counts as working the night shift, and the price is double for the night shift."

"Do you live around here?" Miss Xiao didn't care about money, and wearing her cute floral slippers, she followed behind Zhang Chen, looking around.

"There's a rental apartment here, and the family has a cat that likes to gnaw on meat..." Zhang Chen said.

The young lady rarely visited the old, run-down apartment complex. She would stare at the old woman buying groceries for a long time, until the old woman thought she was hungry and broke off half a steamed bun for her to eat.

She wanted to refuse, but Zhang Chen made her accept it. He said she couldn't refuse the old man's kindness, just like she couldn't refuse the New Year's money from the elderly, as it would bring bad luck.

Although the young lady had never eaten such simple food before...

But she swiped a small bottle of drink from the matchmaking agency and put it in the refrigerator. Taking a sip of the drink and then a bite of steamed bun made it taste delicious.

She didn't know what kind of drink it was, but Zhang Chen told her to take any drink from the refrigerator. Seeing that this thing was tucked away at the very back, she figured it must be something good.

It had a strange fragrance that she had never smelled before, but she became addicted to it as she drank it. She almost vomited after the first sip, but her mouth watered after the second sip.

"I think I've been here before, on that deck chair, and met Miss Zi."

Xiao Shuyao gradually lowered her guard against Zhang Chen and instead tried to find more things to say to him, revealing her talkative nature as she waved her two little hands.

Perhaps this girl doesn't have many opportunities to interact with people at home.

"She is the most beautiful woman I have ever seen in my life, with natural silver hair and reddish-brown eyes. But besides her beauty, I admire her knowledge even more. Her understanding of botany and biology is very unique, almost completely different from all mainstream modern knowledge, yet very convincing."

"I love cats. There are many descriptions of cats in my books. They provided me with a lot of detailed support, which has become a highlight of my books."

"My ideal is to become a mature and charming career woman like her, so I don't have to be used as a bargaining chip by my family to be sold as someone else's fiancée..."

At this point, Xiao Shuyao lowered her head: "To put it bluntly, I'm nothing more than a commodity for the family to sell to the outside world... and these labels of Peking University student and genius literary girl are just packaging for me, so that I can be sold to those politicians and celebrities for a higher price..."

"Sounds a bit like... a Japanese adult film actress, right?" The girl lowered her head even further.

"Zhang Chen, are you listening? I actually made some veiled references to these things in my book. You can take a look..."

Zhang Chen didn't look at the girl's book, but instead watched the black mist above her head, which slowly faded as she ate her steamed bun.

This cloud of black energy was almost as dense as the cloud of black energy above Bai Nuoyan's head, which meant that this little girl wouldn't live more than three years.

Now Zhang Chen was also a little confused: was she a born jinx, or was it a man-made disaster brought upon her by her family?

But now, her lifespan is gradually increasing, even if it's only for a few months, it's better than nothing.

Was it because of the steamed bun the old man gave me? No, even if it was a blessing, it shouldn't have such a great effect.

"Zhang Chen, your drinks are really good, can I have some more? I'll pay a lot for them." Xiao Shuyao changed the subject when she saw that Zhang Chen wasn't talking to her.

Looking at the bottle of drink in the girl's hand, Zhang Chen suddenly understood...

His face darkened, and he snatched the drink away.

"?"

The girl almost choked. She hadn't swallowed the steamed bun in her cheeks yet, which were still bulging. She looked at him pitifully, like a hamster whose snacks had been stolen.

"Where did you find it?"

"In the refrigerator... I have one of these refrigerators at home too. It has a hidden compartment, which I usually use to store valuable things... You can let me pick whatever I want."

""

The incredibly delicious Tushan Cold Crisp even had some hidden treasures in the refrigerator.

No wonder he would feel inexplicably sleepy after eating at the matchmaking agency for a period of time, and wake up with a sore back.

You can't drink this.

"But I've already drunk it all, I'll pay you whatever it costs... I only had two more sips left to finish it."

"You're not thinking of secretly drinking it, are you... because there's my saliva on it." Xiao Shuyao looked at him with a sly smile. "Romance novels always like to write indirect kisses like this..."

"God, I didn't even curse you when I drank your saliva..." This is wine; you're too young to drink.

"It does taste a little like alcohol, but it's okay. I'm not drunk. Give it to me... This is the first time I've ever been addicted to a beverage. I feel like I'll never be able to drink anything else in my life."

Isn't that obvious? If it weren't addictive, would foxes and cats crave it every day?

"Quit it while you're still not drinking much," Zhang Chen said. "Otherwise, when you can't drink anymore, you'll start to behave yourself when you experience withdrawal symptoms."

"Is it really that exaggerated?"

Xiao Shuyao belatedly realized what was happening, but her gaze remained fixed on the contents of Zhang Chen's bottle. With a hint of desperation, she said hesitantly, "That's all... just drink it all. I promise I'll never drink it again. Just this once, please give me one more sip..."

'

"?"

"Never mind." Zhang Chen examined it carefully and concluded that the fox hadn't used any potent poison.

Turn a blind eye and grant this girl's wish. It's nothing for a person who's about to die to drink a final cup of wine before his execution.

"Don't do it again." Zhang Chen returned the drink to her. To be fair, this bottle was alright. It looked like an experimental product. At best, it was like making cola, with some carbonation added and nothing else.

The worst-case scenario...

But then, after Xiao Shuyao finished drinking it in one gulp, she secretly took out another bottle from her small backpack.

Zhang Chen looked at it, his face ashen; this was the worst-case scenario.

Tu Shan Han Su is quite good at managing his finances.

"Why do you still have one bottle?"

"I grabbed two bottles on the spur of the moment..."

"You absolutely cannot drink this. You'll die if you do." Zhang Chen snatched the small drink from Xiao Shuyao without allowing any argument.

"I'll just have some iced tea."

"." Xiao Shuyao swallowed hard, and could only sigh as she looked at the drink in Zhang Chen's hand.

"Zhang Chen, since you like money so much, why don't you sell me the secret recipe for this drink? You can definitely get a high price for it."

"A gentleman loves money, but he acquires it in a proper way," Zhang Chen retorted.

Xiao Shuyao wiped her lips, neither agreeing nor disagreeing with Zhang Chen's words.

This boy was indeed the most "gentlemanly" person she had ever met.

"Zhang Chen, do you want Li Yinuo to win the award? What will you do to me then...?"

"Of course I hope she wins the award, but since you say there's something fishy going on, it's fine if she doesn't win it. I won't do anything to you."

Xiao Shuyao muttered, "It's not that simple. This award has a lot of exposure. I heard that Li Yinuo has already spent all her royalties from the past years on publicity..."

"Good wine needs no bush," Zhang Chen said.

Xiao Shuyao fell silent. She knew she wasn't as smart as Zhang Chen... so she could only follow behind him like a little chick.

She felt very safe because she imagined that Zhang Chen was actually an old hen.

She fantasized that she was actually Tao Yuanming, and now she had followed Zhang Chen to the Peach Blossom Spring. In the Peach Blossom Spring, there was no decadent extravagance, no heartless family, only adorable little animals: kittens, mice that could carry bricks, fish that blew bubbles, and delicious wine...

For some reason, after only meeting for a day, she actually went home with a strange man, giving one excuse after another...

Is it because she finally managed to shake off the people her family sent to keep an eye on her? And she wants to let loose completely?

Will she ever have a chance to become someone like Miss Bai in her lifetime? What happens after she wins this newcomer literary award?

Win two or three more awards, then get sold.

"Living must be tiring, right?" Zhang Chen suddenly asked as he stepped into the elevator.

Xiao Shuyao paused for a moment upon hearing this, then bent her arms and hugged her petite self, letting out a barely perceptible "hmm".

However, Zhang Chen's concern did not arrive as the girl had hoped. He remained silent, waiting for the elevator to rise to the eighteenth floor.

"I'll introduce you to someone," he said.

"Who?" Xiao Shuyao followed him out of the elevator.

"Not really a person either," Zhang Chen said, turning the key to open the door to the rented room.

The voice arrives before the person is seen.

"Back so early?" Bai Nuoyan still had his clothes in her mouth; she hadn't eaten for several days, and her craving was kicking in.

"Miss Bai?!" Xiao Shuyao, who was hiding behind Zhang Chen, saw Bai Nuoyan at first glance and shouted excitedly.

Bai Nuoyan was taken aback. She quickly put her pants on, threw the clothes out of her mouth, and poked her cat head out to look around in confusion.

"Qingyao?" she asked, taken aback.

"No, no, you've called me by the wrong name again. My name is Shuyao, Xiao Shuyao~" the girl in the cheongsam said happily, "What are you doing here?"

Bai Nuoyan was embarrassed and looked at Zhang Chen.

"She's yours now," Zhang Chen said. "She seems to be a fan of yours. I found her on the street and brought her here."

"Tsk." Bai Nuoyan gave him the middle finger. "You didn't even tell me beforehand? I wasn't even wearing pants!"

"I'll come back and deal with you after I find out what happened." The silver-haired girl pinched him, then pulled Xiao Shuyao to her own room.

At the same time, he didn't forget to steal the drink from Zhang Chen's hand.

Are you sick?

"...I didn't do it." Zhang Chen said, embarrassed.

Then, seeing that Maomao and Xiao Shuyao had hidden in the room opposite, he understood.

There must be some past life connection, otherwise Bai Nuoyan wouldn't have come into contact with humans for no reason.

Unless, in her past life, Xiao Shuyao knew Shao Mao, or perhaps she knew him as well.

They seemed to have a good relationship.

Bai Nuoyan usually keeps to herself and does nothing but play with toys. She lacks companionship, so it's a good opportunity to have Xiao Xiaomei keep her company.

Surely some pollen will be released now?

"Cough cough...who are you trying to kill?" Bai Nuoyan took a big gulp of her drink, and her cheeks turned red at a visible speed.

"Huh? Is this liquor very strong?" Xiao Shuyao asked.

"Liquor? It's definitely very strong." Bai Nuoyan continued to chug it down, feeling more energetic the more she drank.

"It tastes awful too." Bai Nuoyan stuck out her tongue in front of the mirror.

Endless aftertaste.

Looking at Bai Nuoyan's expression, Xiao Shuyao didn't think it tasted bad. She was already drooling from the smell and was just waiting for Miss Bai to offer her some.

But even after he finished drinking it, he didn't share any with her.

She didn't know what to say, but she vaguely felt that Bai Nuoyan was acting strangely.

"Although, it tastes a little sweet at the end." Bai Nuoyan smacked her lips. "Alright, what did you come to see me for?"

"I..." Xiao Shuyao wanted to tell everyone what she had seen today, but then she suddenly realized...

Why is Miss Bai dressed so scantily? And why is she in a man's room?

What about that aloof, strong woman she admires who values ​​individual beauty?

What is the relationship between Zhang Chen and Bai Nuoyan?!

"I met him on the street, and he said I could see you... so I followed him." Xiao Shuyao lied.

"Oh..." Bai Nuoyan narrowed her eyes. She didn't question Xiao Shuyao's words, but she was suspicious of Zhang Chen's purpose in doing so.

"Sister Bai, what's your relationship with him? Are you... a couple?"

But today she clearly saw Zhang Chen and Li Yinuo doing something really messy.

Xiao Shuyao's awe of Zhang Chen continued to grow.

"No," Bai Nuoyan shook her head.

Xiao Xiaomei breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's a relationship where we can have several children, but we're not considered a couple," Bai Nuoyan added.

Xiao Xiaomei's pupils dilated.

"But I don't like him."

Xiao Xiaomei's pupils constricted.

"But I like his **."

Xiao Shuyao was about to faint. "Is this normal?"

'

"Hmm." Bai Nuoyan didn't want to talk much about matters of the heart; no matter how many times you asked, she would only answer that she didn't like it.

That kind of person doesn't deserve it.

"Qingyao, you've come at just the right time. I was planning to come see you again anyway," Bai Nuoyan said.

"My name isn't Qingyao..." Xiao Shuyao really couldn't understand why Bai Nuoyan couldn't remember her name.

"You used to have this name." The silver-haired girl slumped onto the sofa and took another sip of her drink.

This time, she held the wine in her mouth for a little longer before saying calmly, "I'm here to ask you to help me write a book, about a person."

"Of course!" Xiao Shuyao's eyes lit up at the mention of writing a book. "Don't worry, Sister Bai, your materials will definitely not go to waste!"

"By the way, who are they? Which historical figures?"

"It's neither here nor there." Bai Nuoyan's mood suddenly darkened.

While processing Zhang Chen's file during this period, she discovered that there were very few records of Chunyang Daoren within the company, and even the new employees did not recognize this person.

She didn't care that Zhang Chen had been erased from history.

But while erasing Zhang Chen, it also erased her traces.

It has nothing to do with Zhang Chen.

But that experience will always be a treasure for her.

Even if Zhang Chen can't remember, she might find out about these things through clues in the future. Just thinking about how Zhang Chen might regret it makes her happy.

Revenge, a severe revenge.

"So who is it? A poet, a tyrant, an emperor?"

"None of them can compare to him." Bai Nuoyan shook her head. "You've met this person before."

Xiao Shuyao froze, and Zhang Chen's face subconsciously popped into her mind.

"That story begins a long, long time ago..."

Bai Nuoyan recounted the story in detail, as the winds of history gently blew in.

The girl's hand trembled as she held the pen, her heart filled with turmoil.
