the next morning.

Su Qing opened her eyes contentedly as she was taken from Huang Tang's arms.

She finally got what she wanted!

Not only is Brother Huang Tang now mine, but I've also activated the system!

Su Qing turned her head and looked at Huang Tang's eyelashes, nose, and lips...

I can never get enough of looking at it.

"Have you seen enough?"

Huang Tang suddenly spoke, his eyes still closed.

Su Qing was startled: "When did you wake up?"

"From the moment your hands started to wander."

Su Qing looked down and her face immediately turned red, but she didn't pull it back.

Huang Tang opened his eyes and looked at her.

"There's something I've been wanting to ask you," Su Qing suddenly said seriously, "During the summer after our first year of high school, did you really lift my skirt?"

Huang Tang opened his mouth, unsure whether to admit it or deny it.

"Actually, you don't need to answer." Su Qing rested her head on his chest. "I just wanted to tell you that back then, if you had just asked, I could have done it."

Huang Tang hugged her tighter and grinned mischievously, "Then I have to make up for the ten years I lost today."

Su Qing laughed and punched him in the chest.

"Didn't you have enough last night?"

"no."

"...beast."

"Thank you for the compliment."

…………

noon.

In the restaurant, the women arrived one after another to eat.

Peng Jie brought out the last pot of soup, looked around, and suddenly frowned.

"Where's Huang Tang? I haven't seen him all morning."

Bai Tao chewed on her chopsticks and thought for a moment: "That's right, he never used to sleep in."

"Are you sick?" Jiang Man asked anxiously. "You played at the beach all day yesterday, could you have caught a cold?"

"It could also be because of what Lord Mengchang said."

Chae Rim put down her chopsticks, her expression serious. "Expelling room staff, recruiting new people... Huang Tang must be under pressure."

"He didn't want to abandon any of us, yet he led everyone to the forefront. All the pressure was on his shoulders."

The women fell silent.

They all knew very well that they were the ones who had dragged Huang Tang down.

Huang Tang actually comforted them yesterday!

"Should we go see him?" Bai Tao asked softly.

"I'm going!" Liu Lingqing stood up.

"I'll go too!" Jiang Gelan stood up.

Jiang Jing'an leaned back in her chair, took a sip of juice, and slowly said, "Have you forgotten that one person is missing today?"

The women were taken aback, looked at each other, and counted the heads.

Then they both realized what was happening at the same time.

Su Qing isn't here either!

The restaurant was silent for a full three seconds.

"……oh."

Bai Tao lowered her head, her ears turning red.

"So that's how it is..."

Jiang Man lowered her head, her ears turning red.

"No wonder……"

Liu Lingqing smiled knowingly, a knowing smile playing on her lips.

Peng Jie breathed a sigh of relief: "As long as Huang Tang is alright, that's all that matters."

"Yeah, yeah, that scared me to death." Jiang Man patted her chest. "I thought he was really sick."

however!

Huang Tang's door remained closed until sunset!

The women began to get restless.

"What time is it?" Bai Tao paced back and forth in the corridor. "I'll waste all my synthesis attempts today!"

Jiang Jing'an leaned against the wall, arms crossed: "President Cai, how about... you go and call Brother Huang Tang out?"

Chae Rim glared at her: "Why aren't you going?"

"It's not appropriate for me to go," Jiang Jing'an said innocently. "What if I see something I shouldn't? That would be so embarrassing."

"Would it be appropriate for me to go?" Chae Rim blushed.

"You're the CEO, everyone listens to you." Jiang Jing'an smiled and nudged her, "Go on, go on."

Chae Rim was pushed to the front of Huang Tang's door. She took a deep breath and raised her hand to knock on the door.

The door opened.

Huang Tang stood at the door, wearing a clean T-shirt, his hair still wet, clearly having just taken a shower.

Several hickeys were clearly visible on his neck.

Jiang Jing'an frowned as she looked at the marks.

Su Qing's actions were not out of coquetry or flirting.

It's not that we're trying to assert our sovereignty over them!

"Brother Huang Tang, you've finally come out." Jiang Jing'an stepped forward with a smile and naturally took Huang Tang's arm. "We haven't used up the number of times we've synthesized the white peach yet."

Huang Tang patted his forehead: "Of course I won't forget this. Come on, let's go to the living room."

……

In the living room, the women were already sitting in a circle.

Bai Tao sat in the middle, her hands on her knees, her palms sweaty.

Huang Tang took out three golden treasure chests from the system space and neatly arranged them on the ground.

It was so shiny and dazzling that it hurt the eyes.

"White Peach, let's combine them," he said.

Bai Tao stared at the three golden treasure chests, her face turning pale. "Are we really going to combine them into a golden treasure chest? What if we fail?"

Her voice was trembling.

To date, many players have never even seen a golden treasure chest.

Synthesize a Golden Treasure Chest?

If she fails, she will be the sinner of the entire house!

"Don't feel pressured," Huang Tang patted her shoulder. "Even if you fail, it's nothing. It's just three golden treasure chests."

Chae Rim rolled her eyes beside her:

"How many gold chests have you opened so far? And 'only three'? I suggest you wait a bit longer."

"We can't wait any longer." Huang Tang waved his hand. "Let's settle it now."

Bai Tao bit her lip and looked at Cai Lin.

Chae Rim sighed and nodded.

Bai Tao took a deep breath and, with trembling hands, placed them on the three golden treasure chests.

Close your eyes.

Talent activated.

The living room was so quiet you could hear your own heartbeat.

Three golden treasure chests slowly rose to the surface, their golden light growing brighter and brighter, becoming increasingly dazzling.

They slowly approached each other, their edges beginning to merge, like three golden drops of water converging into one.

Everyone held their breath.

Sweat beaded on Bai Tao's forehead, and her hands were trembling.

The golden light grew stronger and stronger, and the entire living room was bathed in gold.

then……

A burst of white light.

A blinding white light flashed like lightning, and everyone instinctively closed their eyes.

When they opened their eyes again, a brand new treasure chest lay quietly on the ground.

Platinum Chest!

"It...it was a success?"

Bai Tao opened her eyes, saw the treasure chest on the ground, and was stunned.

Huang Tang picked up the treasure chest; it felt warm and smooth to the touch, and was considerably heavier than the gold treasure chest.

"The Platinum Treasure Chest." He laughed. "White Peach, you're amazing!"

The women cheered.

"It's a success! It's really a success!"

"A Platinum Chest! I actually witnessed the creation of a Platinum Chest!"

Bai Tao slumped to the ground, panting heavily, her clothes completely soaked through.

But the smile on her face was genuine!

Huang Tang then took out six silver treasure chests from the system space.

"continue."

Bai Tao got up, wiped the sweat from her forehead, and activated her talent again.

The three silver treasure chests merged, and golden light shone forth.

Golden Treasure Chest!

The remaining three silver treasure chests were combined to create another gold treasure chest!

Both attempts were successful!

Huang Tang was so happy that he picked up the white peach and spun it around.

"I told you! Believe in yourself!"

Bai Tao blushed as he held her in the air: "Put me down! So many people are watching!"

Huang Tang put her down, and Bai Tao's legs went weak, almost causing her to fall, but Cai Lin caught her.

"Thanks for your hard work."

Chae Rim patted her on the back.

Bai Tao shook her head: "It's not hard work."

Huang Tang checked the current inventory of treasure chests:

1 Platinum Treasure Chests!

2 Golden Treasure Chests!

8 Silver Treasure Chests!

43 Bronze Treasure Chests!

83 wooden crates!

"If everything goes well," Huang Tang said, "tomorrow Bai Tao can use three gold treasure chests to combine into one platinum treasure chest, and then we'll have two platinum treasure chests!"

The women's eyes lit up.

Chae Rim asked, "Shall we open the Platinum Treasure Chest now?"

Huang Tang looked at the platinum treasure chest in his hand and took a deep breath.

"open!"
