Call me trash? I can instantly kill an S-level talent with just one yuan!

Around noon.

After tidying up, I started cooking.

Ye Chen glanced at the special offers on today's items in the mall.

Seeing that it was a fruit that could improve one's constitution, I bought it directly, disguised it, cut it up, and served it on the table as a fruit platter.

This wasn't the first time he'd done this.

After Bai Ningbing came out of the room, she saw some strange fruits again and couldn't help but pick up a piece to taste.

The fruit bursts with juice as soon as you put it in your mouth; it's sweet and sour, refreshing and incredibly smooth.

A faint warmth flowed through my limbs and bones, relaxing all my nerves and making me feel incredibly comfortable.

"How is it? Is the taste alright?"

Seeing Bai Ningbing put the fruit into her mouth, Ye Chen smiled and asked.

Although Bai Ningbing really liked the taste, she still replied indifferently on the surface:

"It's alright, thank you."

After saying that, she took the plate of fruit and went back into her house, skipping lunch.

Ye Chen glanced at the four dishes and one soup he had painstakingly prepared, then reluctantly sat down and began to eat.

in the afternoon.

Clean up the dishes.

Ye Chen then began selecting supplies in the online store.

Elixirs, weapons and equipment, various functional items, and energy replenishment potions.

Especially energy supplements.

Now that he's started fighting, the Qilin's recovery consumes energy, the dragon's body consumes energy, and the energy burst consumes energy. Relying solely on his "Transformation" talent, once he gets into a long and arduous battle, it's simply not enough to cover his costs.

It's better to have some on hand that you can use anytime.

finally.

He purchased three Nine-Turn Golden Pills, ten energy replenishment potions, as well as several functional devices such as attack and defense single-person technology devices and detectors.

The total cost was 15 million.

Looking at what he held in his hand, Ye Chen felt a surge of emotion.

When did I become so extravagant with money?

Fifteen million would have been enough for his daily expenses for a lifetime in the past.

Who would have thought that an afternoon like this would be spent?

Life is truly unpredictable; the large intestine wraps around the small intestine.

Evening came quickly.

Just as Ye Chen was about to cook, Bai Ningbing walked into the room wearing a black dress.

She was clearly wearing light makeup, which made her complexion appear much rosier than usual.

"Are you going out?" Ye Chen asked curiously.

"Okay, don't save me dinner tonight."

Bai Ningbing said something indifferently and left home directly.

Shortly after, a black Maybach S680 drove out of the underground garage and headed out.

Ye Chen revealed a relaxed smile.

"Easier, just order takeout!"

Not long after.

He then enjoyed a deluxe fried pancake set meal, which cost him over 160 yuan!

When he was a child, he often went to a fried pancake shop because he didn't have money for food. The owner was very kind and would make an extra small portion for him when he fried pancakes for other people.

And he didn't charge any money; he was given the food for free.

This continued for two or three years until his shop was sublet. After that, he never got to eat free fried pancakes again, nor did he ever see the kind couple again.

At this moment, his mouth was filled with shredded pancakes again, which made him think of those lonely days in the past.

Solved.

Ye Chen went to the rooftop alone.

Sitting cross-legged under the night sky, hovering half a meter above the ground, he began to hone his energy control skills.

I went through the notes of the senior student again from beginning to end.

Based on his experience and combined with his own understanding, he continuously adjusted the optimal energy release route.

Ye Chen had also thought about it.

Actually, he could also discuss this with Hongwu.

Hongwu's talent was to store energy and then release it through his hands, weapons, and so on.

He's similar, but he doesn't have a storage function; he only releases energy, except that the energy he releases is doubled!

The impact is more than one level higher!

Otherwise, it wouldn't be possible to support him flying at supersonic speeds like "Homelander".

It went on until midnight.

Ye Chen then finished his practice.

Overall energy efficiency improved by 0.6 percentage points.

It can be considered a success.

Back downstairs, Ye Chen sensed something and found it rather strange.

Bai Ningbing hasn't returned yet?

It's so late, where have you been?

Hesitated for a moment.

He still took out his phone and dialed the number.

"beep……"

"beep……"

"..."

The phone rang for more than ten seconds before it was answered.

"Feed".

Bai Ningbing's calm voice came from inside.

Ye Chen coughed lightly and asked, "Ahem, Miss Bai, are you... coming back tonight?"

"Where else can I go if I don't go home?" Bai Ningbing questioned.

"Um...that's not what I meant. I just thought it was getting late..."

Before Ye Chen could finish speaking, a man's voice suddenly came from the microphone.

"Ningbing, who is that?"

Bai Ningbing replied to the man, "My contract husband."

"oh."

The man responded with a sound of agreement and then said nothing more.

Bai Ningbing came to her senses.

"Okay, I'll be back in a bit."

After saying that, he hung up the phone.

Hearing the busy tone on the phone, Ye Chen felt a little uneasy.

Regardless of the reasons why the two got together, they are still husband and wife in name only.

It's hard for anyone to feel comfortable knowing their wife is with another man in the middle of the night.

He took two deep breaths to calm himself down.

I sat down on the sofa and started daydreaming.

He had originally planned to go downstairs and go to sleep, but now he was not sleepy at all, and some uncomfortable images kept flashing through his mind.

……

at the same time.

Jinghua Xiangshe.

In a top-notch teahouse.

Bai Ningbing sat indifferently to one side, opposite a handsome young man dressed in an expensive suit.

The young man wore a confident smile, and his eyes held a well-hidden possessiveness as he looked at Bai Ningbing.

"Ningbing, I'm back. You don't need this contract husband anymore."

Bai Ningbing remained calm. "My contract with him is for five years."

The young man chuckled. "I know you're still angry that I left without saying goodbye, but I had my reasons. I can't disobey my elders. I hope you can believe me."

"I believe it."

Bai Ningbing remained expressionless.

Honestly, she really wanted to believe him, the perfect first love in front of her—Chongyang.

He was once the school heartthrob, with a first-class family background, talent, and looks, and he captured the hearts of countless girls.

But what she couldn't understand was...

Why did this person choose to leave without a word when he needed him the most?

Why didn't he contact her at all during the five months she had been hoping for his return?

Why is it that just when I'm feeling utterly disheartened and starting to accept someone else, he reappears in front of me?

At this moment, all her previous wishes have come true.

He sat down in front of me, longing for my forgiveness and hoping to return to my side.

But she seemed to have lost that feeling from before.

Hearing Bai Ningbing's answer, Chongyang smiled.

"That's good. When are you going to dissolve your marriage with him?"

"Oh right, and the investment contract too, let's cancel that as well. I'll pay the penalty for breach of contract!"

Bai Ningbing frowned.

"I'm a little tired, let's talk about it next time."

After saying that, she picked up her bag and got up to leave.

Unexpectedly, Chongyang immediately panicked.

He asked Bai Ningbing out tonight, hoping something would happen; he even brought a small umbrella.

He failed to win her over during his four years of university, but his sudden return this time will surely surprise, delight, and move her. He should be able to win her over!

However, things obviously did not develop as expected.

"Wait, freeze!"

Bai Ningbing stopped and looked at him indifferently.

Chongyang smiled.

"A friend from Black Star Base invited me to a martial arts banquet in a few days. That guy is an SSS-level genius, the nation's future star! How about you come with me? Maybe we can find a chance to heal you there."

Bai Ningbing's first instinct was to refuse.

But after hearing the last sentence, she hesitated.

The influence of an SSS-level genius is extraordinary, and many heavyweight figures will definitely participate.

She might actually be able to find a way to remove the Thousand-Beast's original toxins.

Once she recovers her health, she can continue her spiritual practice!

I don't have to live like a useless person anymore!

It's also possible to... have more topics to talk about with him.

It shouldn't be so cold and indifferent every day.

Thinking of this, Bai Ningbing slowly spoke:

"it is good."

A look of joy immediately appeared in Chongyang's eyes.

"Okay, I'll pick you up on the day of the banquet. You're still staying at the same villa, right?"

"Um."

Bai Ningbing nodded. "Let's go."

After saying that, she turned and left.

in situ.

Chongyang stared at Bai Ningbing's exquisite figure, swallowed hard, and a cold smile curled at the corner of his mouth.
