If you're going on a blind date, do it properly, don't confiscate my property!

They called a ride-hailing service and got in the car.

Xu Lang's location was Teacher Zhou's dormitory. He just wanted to get rid of this "big shot" as soon as possible, so as not to delay his in-depth communication with "Nuannuan," whom the matchmaker had just recommended, and discuss life and late-night snacks.

Teacher Zhou sat close to Xu Lang, as if afraid the driver wouldn't notice their intimate relationship, and spoke in a low voice:

"Xu Lang, what are you doing so late?"

Xu Lang silently moved closer to the car door, trying to create a safe social distance.

As a result, Teacher Zhou also moved along with it, and like a human-shaped pendant, it was stuck on perfectly.

Xu Lang had never met such a proactive girl before. In the past, he had always gone to great lengths to pursue girls. This was the first time a girl had taken the initiative to pursue him, and she was so clingy.

I'm really not used to it yet!

The two were barely even dating when the other was already sticking so close to him.

In the past, he wouldn't have dared to even dream of such a good thing!

Teacher Zhou is quite good-looking, 1.66 meters tall, and has a full S-shaped figure; if I hadn't known her true character before the system arrived, I might have really given it a try.

But now that the truth is known, it's naturally impossible to jump into a fire pit.

Xu Lang leaned back in his chair, closed his eyes to rest, and pretended to be asleep.

"Teacher Zhou, I'm a little tired. Can I rest for a while?"

"Of course!" Teacher Zhou finally shut her mouth, but she carefully took Xu Lang's hand and then slowly intertwined her fingers.

He turned his head slightly, stealing a glance at Xu Lang, who was gently closing his eyes, then looked at their intertwined hands, a victor's smile appearing on his lips. He tilted his head slightly and gently leaned on Xu Lang's shoulder.

She was overjoyed: He didn't refuse, which meant he agreed. Hehe, I finally got him!

A monthly salary of 100,000 yuan sounds exciting.

In the future, I can walk proudly among my colleagues who have joined wealthy and powerful families, with the means to travel whenever I want and the confidence to quit whenever I wish.

Isn't this the "turnaround" life she's always dreamed of?

Handsome, rich, and passive—he's practically my dream guy!

With her eyes closed, she was already imagining the wedding scene in her mind, herself in a white wedding dress, Xu Lang holding a diamond ring...

I don't know how much time has passed!

The car stopped, and the driver called out, "We've arrived!"

Xu Lang opened his eyes. All the way here, he had been thinking about how to get rid of this pest without damaging the relationship or affecting the situation on his brother's side.

Trying to break free of their intertwined fingers, they found that the other person's other hand also grabbed them tightly.

Xu Lang sighed inwardly and got out of the car.

"Huh? How did we end up downstairs at my dorm?" Teacher Zhou glanced around and immediately sensed something was wrong.

"Xu Lang, you don't think I'm in your way, do you? Actually, I'm very obedient."

Xu Lang tried to break free of their intertwined fingers again, but the other person held on tightly, leaving him no choice but to give up.

"Teacher Zhou, are you trying to cling to me?"

"Hehe, Xu Lang, do you believe in love at first sight?" Teacher Zhou smiled brightly, sweeter than eating candy.

"In my opinion, love at first sight is lust at first sight." Xu Lang looked at the two people's intertwined hands.

"That's right!" Teacher Zhou said confidently, even with a hint of pride.

"I just love your looks! I love that you're handsome, what can I do? Hehe!"

Deep down, I was pleasantly surprised: I like your looks, not your money; I'd rather be a looks-obsessed person than a gold digger!

Based on her extensive experience, she concluded that men don't like gold diggers; they prefer women to find them handsome.

Xu Lang is indeed handsome. He earns 100,000 yuan a month, ranking first, and his looks definitely rank second.

"Teacher Zhou, you don't even know what kind of person I am. Aren't you afraid I'm a scumbag who'll abandon you after you've had your pants pulled?"

Teacher Zhou's smile remained unchanged, and her eyes were still full of affection.

"A woman's intuition is very accurate; I feel you're not a jerk."

Xu Lang: "..."

Is this girl really clinging to me?

The kind you can't even shake off!

He took out a cigarette, and the hand that was being held tugged at him, indicating that he wanted to take the cigarette. She then skillfully took it out for him with her free hand, put it in his mouth, and took out a lighter from her pocket to light it for him.

So you're not planning to let go?

"Teacher Zhou, you really don't understand me." Xu Lang exhaled a smoke ring, his eyes gleaming with a hint of amusement through the smoke.

All my exes called me a scumbag and said I was the "king of playboys".

Teacher Zhou said firmly, "I don't believe it!"

Xu Lang exhaled a thick smoke ring, his gaze piercing through the haze as he looked at her delicate face, his tone slightly teasing:

"Teacher Zhou, since you've made up your mind, and this night is truly boring, how about you book a hotel room and we go to get to know each other's anatomy better?"

My being a jerk has nothing to do with my brother; it's entirely my fault.

Teacher Zhou did not refuse immediately!

She actually hesitated!

Even Xu Lang was stunned for a moment.

Shouldn't a normal girl slap me, call me a "pervert" and a "scumbag," and then run away?

This script is wrong, director, I need to reshoot!

Are all female teachers these days used like this? Or have I underestimated the allure of a monthly salary of 100,000?

On their first meeting, they were willing to go to a hotel together? This level of openness completely shattered Xu Lang's expectations.

Teacher Zhou hesitated because she was weighing her options and thinking: This request is too direct. If I agree too quickly, it will make me seem casual. But I can't refuse directly either. This is a high-quality opportunity with a monthly salary of 100,000 yuan. If I miss this opportunity, I won't get another one.

I need to stay calm, making him think I'm hooked, while also maintaining a shred of dignity to keep him hanging on...

Slightly suppressing the smile on his face, becoming slightly more serious, he put on a show of playing hard to get:

"Xu Lang, I really like you, but tonight is our first time meeting. Going to a hotel is a bit too fast. I'm not mentally prepared yet. Wait a few days for me!"

She refused, but she hesitated just now!

Hesitation alone has already reduced Xu Lang's score to a negative number!

A refusal after hesitation is meaningless and has already been defined; she is capable, but this time, she is feigning modesty.

A barely perceptible smile appeared on Xu Lang's lips:

"Since you're unwilling, it means you don't like me that much. I don't like girls who reject me. Let's part ways here!"

As she spoke, she tried to break free of their intertwined fingers and turn to leave.

Teacher Zhou gripped it tightly, head bowed, face full of struggle, voice low:

"Do we really have to book a hotel room? But... I feel like it's too fast."

Seeing this, Xu Lang pressed his advantage: "Is this the only way to prove you love me? Otherwise, how can you prove it? With your words?"

Teacher Zhou was silent for a moment, then lowered her head even further: "Then... after we get a hotel room, will you consider me your boyfriend?"

If you agree to establish a relationship, it's worth sacrificing tonight.

After all, having a relationship with a rich boyfriend is called deepening your relationship, but having a relationship with an ordinary traveler is just stupid!

However, in Xu Lang's view—

She agreed! She actually agreed...

Xu Lang's worldview was shattered!

I guessed you were materialistic and competitive, but I never expected you would be willing to go to a hotel on your first date just to be with me, who earns a monthly salary of 100,000.

You're really willing to go to any lengths for money!

The idealized image of a respected teacher shattered completely in his eyes!

A mind-blowing idea popped into my head: If I can do it, other rich people can too, right?

If I really marry her, as long as others pay me enough, will I still be cheated on all the time?

While internally ranting and raving, he outwardly maintained his persona as a roguish, bad boy:

"That's not necessarily true, it depends on my mood!"

"Oh? It depends on my mood!" Teacher Zhou was a little surprised.

She felt she had given everything by going to a hotel room on their first date, but it all depended on the other person's mood to determine if she could become his girlfriend.

She's even starting to doubt her own charm!

She has no shortage of male suitors, and even several parents of students have generous financial backers showering her with money.

In their presence, I am a proud swan; how can I be so humble in front of you, having to be subservient to you?

Am I really that bad?

At this moment, she was as helpless as a man!
