After being attacked by the rich young ladies with hatchets, I chose to enter "sage mode".

Everyone has a sense of shyness, and even the strong-willed Murong Liyue is not immune to it.

After Si Yu finished bathing, I stood in the bathroom and looked at myself in the mirror. My whole body was as white as jade, and even the water droplets sliding off my body looked so smooth.

Unfortunately, Murong Liyue seemed dissatisfied with some aspects of her figure, such as her B-cup, which made her look flat when she wore clothes in winter.

She never asked Bai Yu one question: whether Bai Yu preferred flat-chested or curvy women.

He reached out and took the mature woman's clothes, wrapped them up, and walked out of the bathroom to change.

Meanwhile, Bai Yu was already alone in the innermost room, with the door closed, playing on her phone.

He was severely scolded when he called his parents to tell them he was going out to play with friends for a few days before coming back.

From Bai Yu's perspective, having lived two lives, as an adult, she should just go out and say something; there's no need to worry so much.

But to Bai's parents, Bai Yu is just a young boy who has just graduated from high school and entered college. What if something bad happens to him when he goes out to play without saying a word?

However, since everyone has already gone out, it's not practical to call them back. So, Bai's parents' requirement is that safety be the priority and they must come back before the Lantern Festival.

This request is of course no problem at all. After all, the Lantern Festival is still a long way off, and we'll only be out for three days. There's plenty of time to come back before then.

After telling her parents, Bai Yu felt much more at ease, even though she was scolded.

Just as he was lying in bed playing on his phone, there was a knock on the door from the outside.

"Open the door."

A clear, cool, mature voice came from outside the door; it could only be Murong Liyue.

Upon hearing this sound, Bai Yu had no chance of obediently opening the door for Murong Liyue.

After all, who knows what kind of outrageous things this girl might do after coming into my room late at night, so it's best not to turn it on for safety's sake.

"Not open."

A direct refusal, so clean and decisive. Faced with Murong Liyue's assertiveness, Bai Yu felt that he couldn't be weak in terms of momentum either, could he?

If she appeared too weak, she would be easily manipulated by a strong woman like Murong Liyue.

Therefore, Bai Yu felt that what she absolutely must not show during these three days was weakness. Ideally, she should be so strong that Murong Liyue would think that two tigers cannot share one mountain, and then they would part ways immediately, resulting in a happy ending for everyone.

His idea was nice, but he didn't consider one thing: if Murong Liyue could book this apartment, wouldn't she have the key to the room?

The clicking sound of a key opening the door could be heard outside, and within seconds, Murong Liyue opened the door to the room.

The next moment, Murong Liyue walked in wearing a white bathrobe and pulling her suitcase. Chapter 224: A Delaying Tactic

Seeing Murong Liyue wearing a bathrobe and pulling her own suitcase, Bai Yu immediately felt a bad premonition.

"what are you doing?"

Although she had a bad feeling, Bai Yu still maintained a very aloof attitude, which was exactly as she was known.

Seeing this, Murong Liyue simply placed the suitcase in front of Bai Yu, then sat on the edge of the bed, crossed her long, white legs, and said.

"sleep."

These two simple words, though seemingly simple, are anything but.

However, Bai Yu cannot show any weakness now; she must stand up to Murong Liyue and be assertive.

"Go back to your room and sleep. It's getting late. Go to sleep if you want. Nobody's stopping you."

As she said this, Bai Yu pointed to the door, meaning that Murong Liyue should go out quickly.

But Bai Yu's attitude amused Murong Liyue.

Taking off her slippers, Murong Liyue stretched out her long, snow-white legs and lazily pointed at her suitcase with her toes.

"Here, open the box; there's something you like inside."

Looking at Murong Liyue's delicate, white feet, each of her rounded toes looked so alluring.

As for the girl's claim that there were things she liked in her suitcase, Bai Yu said it definitely wasn't anything good.

Anyway, he won't open it on his own initiative; this is definitely one of Murong Liyue's tricks.

"I don't have anything I like. You should go back to sleep. Aren't you tired after a long day?"

Seeing Bai Yu's slightly furrowed brows and impatient expression, Murong Liyue boldly lifted her foot and placed it directly on Bai Yu's thigh, but her voice remained as cold as ever.

"You really don't want to open it?"

Murong Liyue is clearly trying to seduce Bai Yu; if she raised her long legs any higher, her panties would be visible.

Faced with this kind of seductive behavior, Bai Yu felt she had to stay calm, because one wrong step could lead to a series of mistakes.

Murong Liyue is no innocent girl; who knows if she'll actually do something serious with you?

Taking a deep breath, Bai Yu slapped Murong Liyue's small foot off her lap and muttered a curse.

"Damn it, what the hell? This is so flashy, I'm about to lose it!"

Bai Yu's words sounded so real, but she was actually just pretending to be angry to scare Murong Liyue.

After all, he had already planned to be assertive when facing Murong Liyue, using strength to fight strength.

However, after hearing Bai Yu's words, Murong Liyue simply asked a question in a nonchalant manner.

"Are you trying to yell at me, or are you planning to commit domestic violence?"

Good heavens, a single, seemingly innocuous sentence completely destroyed the imposing aura Bai Yu had built up.

Besides, there's something wrong with what he said. He's bringing up domestic violence, but he and Murong Liyue aren't even boyfriend and girlfriend.

Their eyes met. Bai Yu looked into Murong Liyue's calm eyes and felt that every time he faced Murong Liyue, it was as if he were punching cotton.

And now we need to find a way to get Murong Liyue to leave on her own.

"President, I'm not being mean to you, I just want you to go back and get some rest. After all, you have to leave tomorrow, so don't stay up late and go back to sleep."

Bai Yu spoke as if he were concerned about Murong Liyue's health, but his real purpose was to get the girl to go back obediently as soon as possible.

At this moment, Murong Liyue seemed to have discovered Bai Yu's weakness and replied in a cold tone.

"Yes, but you need to open this box."

Upon hearing this, Bai Yu didn't hesitate at all and bent down to open the box. What was so difficult about making such a simple request that could get Murong Liyue to obediently return?

"It's open, you..."

Bai Yu had just brought the box over when he looked up and saw that the young lady had placed one of her snow-white little feet on his chin, looking at him calmly and asking.

"Whatever kind of clothes you like inside, I'll let you wear them."

Good heavens, when Bai Yu heard Murong Liyue say this, he realized that there was a corner in this girl's suitcase filled with stockings of all styles and colors, which was just ridiculous.

But could Bai Yu succumb to such temptation? Absolutely not, that's a gross underestimation of him.

"Don't joke around, President. I, Bai Yu, am an upright gentleman. I don't like these things. A gentleman loves money, but he earns it in a proper way. A gentleman may not necessarily pursue a beautiful lady. You should know that."

Bai Yu's words did indeed have some merit and authority, but Murong Liyue didn't care at all. Instead, she stretched out her foot to hook up a pair of fishnet stockings and spoke to Bai Yu in a commanding manner.

"Put these on and I'll go back to sleep."

Damn it, Bai Yu only had one word in her mind right now: damn it. Murong Liyue is indeed an abnormal and eccentric woman. She can still make such a request without changing her expression.

However, when you're under someone's roof, you have to bow your head. If you can get Murong Liyue to go back to sleep obediently, that would be the best outcome. If the goal can be achieved, then let's ignore the process for now.

Picking up the pair of thin black fishnet stockings, Murong Liyue blushed, a rare occurrence for her. She stretched her little feet out in front of Bai Yu, not forgetting to add a comment.

"You can use it if you want, I allow it."

Holy crap, to be honest, Bai Yu is really finding it hard to resist Murong Liyue's tempting behavior right now, after all, he's at a passionate and energetic age.

If it weren't for the thought that the consequences could be death, a consequence no one could bear, Bai Yu wouldn't have been so wise.

Reaching out to grasp Murong Liyue's small, delicate feet, Bai Yu, who had never worn fishnet stockings before, seemed a bit awkward. But Murong Liyue reacted as if she had been conquered, her eyes filled with the sexual excitement of having her desire to conquer satisfied.

Just as Bai Yu finished putting one of Murong Liyue's fishnet stockings on, he looked up and noticed a detail: as he squatted down, Murong Liyue lifted her leg, revealing a unique view from that angle...

Bai Yu decided to pretend she didn't see it, to avoid causing any more trouble later.

However, there are some things that Bai Yu cannot avoid causing trouble simply by wanting to.

Just as he finally managed to complete his mission, suppressing his urge to touch Murong Liyue's long legs, Murong Liyue issued a new order.

"Carry me back."

That's ridiculous; there's no way Bai Yu would listen to that.

"Go back by yourself."

Bai Yu remained expressionless and aloof, behaving as coldly as her personality, her attitude perfectly in line with expectations.

However, Murong Liyue naturally had plenty of ways to make him compromise.

"Then I won't go back. We can just sleep together."

This statement is truly in Murong Liyue's style; she is indeed a fearless and domineering woman.

What could Bai Yu do? She could only say it was better to avoid trouble and compromise, euphemistically calling it a delaying tactic. (Chapter 225: Resort)

He bent down and picked up Murong Liyue. This girl really didn't hold back at all. She clung to Bai Yu like a little wife and wouldn't let go.

Upon arriving at the master bedroom where Murong Liyue was sleeping, Bai Yu simply tossed her onto the bed, closed the door, and slipped away without any intention of lingering.

After he returned to his room, he looked at the suitcase Murong Liyue had brought. Besides a few sets of clothes, there were quite a lot of stockings inside. He should have chosen black stockings.

As soon as the thought crossed Bai Yu's mind, she immediately cut it off, silently chanting the mantra "Lust is a knife above one's head, each cut is a knife to the heart" to brainwash herself.

However, it was only at this moment that he realized that all his previous interactions with Murong Liyue seemed to have been aimed at getting Murong Liyue to go back to sleep obediently.

But thinking about it carefully, damn it, the goal was achieved, but wasn't the process still being led by the nose by Murong Liyue? I didn't even realize this problem until I thought about it carefully, it's too damn bad.

He slapped his forehead. Murong Liyue was indeed the most difficult to deal with among his four ex-girlfriends. He had been led by the nose without even realizing it.

It would be abnormal if the gathering of the four women in the previous life wasn't Murong Liyue's idea.

However, Bai Yu is having trouble sleeping peacefully right now, as she's a bit irritable and needs to watch some cooling videos to calm herself down before she can fall asleep.

It's impossible to say that Murong Liyue's allure had absolutely no effect. After all, Bai Yu is a normal man, and his face doesn't show any change. But the second brother is always the most honest one.

Meanwhile, Murong Liyue's situation was not as calm as usual; in fact, one could say that she was behaving very abnormally.
