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

Bai Yu was momentarily stunned as she looked at Murong Liyue, who was even faster than herself.

Is this girl really so domineering that she hangs up on the phone before everyone else? That's so damn unique!

Thinking this to herself, Bai Yu hadn't even turned off her phone screen when she saw a photo sent by Murong Liyue.

The photo shows the girl standing in front of a full-length mirror, wearing a thin white gauze nightgown, revealing her long, smooth legs. Bai Yu felt inexplicably itchy early in the morning after seeing it.

Click on the image, long press, and Bai Yu couldn't resist saving the photo.

However, he did not reply to Murong Liyue's message, as if he was pretending not to see it.

The reason why Murong Liyue hung up the phone faster than Bai Yu was simply because she threw a tantrum and acted willfully.

However, she wouldn't say anything about her willfulness. As for sending Bai Yu a picture of herself in her pajamas, it was just to give Bai Yu something to worry about that day.

Murong Liyue's thoughts were no less than Bai Yu's. While Bai Yu was thinking about how to get rid of his four ex-girlfriends, Murong Liyue was thinking about how to win Bai Yu's heart and soul more quickly.

Murong Liyue had considered forcibly obtaining Bai Yu, but she felt that taking things one step at a time was more interesting.

At least for now, she doesn't think Bai Yu can escape her grasp.

After placing her phone on the bed and getting dressed, Murong Liyue left her second-floor room amidst the nanny's greetings.

Murong Liyue's mother is rarely at home, as she has many social engagements outside and doesn't have time to be home often.

It can be said that her father, Lehai, was the one who spent most of his time at home.

"Liyue, your mother said you need to have someone pick up the dress you ordered last time tonight. There's a banquet tonight, and you have to go."

As soon as Murong Liyue went downstairs, she heard her mother making another arrangement for her, without even giving a reason why she was going.

"Don't go."

A cold remark—this was something Le Hai had long been accustomed to. He didn't know when it started, but Murong Liyue's attitude towards his mother, Murong Meng, had become increasingly worse.

Lehai knew this to some extent, but there was no point in trying to persuade him, so he decided not to.

As Murong Liyue's father, Le Hai has no control over Murong Liyue, let alone Murong Meng, making his status in the family ridiculously low.

But there's nothing we can do about it. After all, he's just a son-in-law who married into the family, so he doesn't have much power. In fact, right now he can only be a stay-at-home husband and be supported by Murong Meng!

“If you don’t go, your mom will definitely nag you again. You should go tonight, who knows what might happen? It’s good to broaden your horizons.”

Murong Liyue did not respond to her father's words. Instead, she went to the kitchen, grabbed a bottle of milk, and went upstairs.

Murong Liyue's greatest act of resistance against her mother, Murong Meng, was to no longer allow herself to be manipulated by her.

They call it broadening my horizons, but who knows if they'll just be introducing me to some young people?

Rather than saying that Murong Meng was being kind to Murong Liyue, it would be more accurate to say that she was simply finding a plausible excuse to impose her own wishful thinking on Murong Liyue.

After all, Murong Liyue was indeed her daughter, and in her eyes, she had to listen to her and had no right to resist her kindness, and she had not done anything wrong.

Exhausted. Murong Liyue has been exhausted since childhood. She lives a tiring life, suppresses her emotions, and even expresses her joys, sorrows, and anger with exhaustion.

Back in her room, Murong Liyue closed the door again and locked herself inside. Looking at herself in the mirror, she slowly stretched out her right hand, her slender fingers touching her red lips. A faint smile gradually appeared in her originally calm eyes.

She was savoring the taste of Bai Yu. This wasn't the first time she had fallen into such a fantasy, and she often had some strange ideas.

"I'm definitely my truest self when I'm with you. Next time...can the kiss last a little longer?!"

Looking at herself in the mirror, Murong Liyue said to herself, "If Bai Yu finds out, I really have to consider transferring schools. This girl doesn't look like a normal person at all now."

Let's turn our attention to the main gate of Beicheng University.

It was already 11:30 a.m., almost noon, and Bai Yu, Li Cheng, and the other two had just walked from their dormitory to the school gate.

As soon as the four of them stepped out of the school, Bai Yu saw Qing Siling sitting in a white car waving at her.

Goodness, no wonder she's a successor to capitalism, Qing Siling actually has her own car?

Bai Yu waved, signaling Li Cheng and the other two to follow her, before getting into the passenger seat first, showing no particular politeness.

When Li Cheng and the other two following behind him saw Qing Siling, they all felt a sense of doubt.

Because Qing Siling was dressed in men's clothing, but her appearance and long black hair made her look like a beautiful woman.

Since Li Cheng and his two companions were not familiar with Qing Siling, they did not ask about the doubts that were on their minds.

But they didn't dare to confirm it until Qing Siling called Bai Yu "Brother Bai Yu" first.

"Wow, Bai Yu, when did you meet another beautiful girl? She looks kind of familiar. At first glance, I thought she was your junior."

"Yeah, he said it was a friend's treat, but it turns out it was his girlfriend!"

"Wow, she looks like a rich woman."

The way Li Cheng and the other two confirmed the gender was obviously by listening to the voice. The problem is that Qing Siling's voice is not much different from a woman's, so it is natural that she was misunderstood.

However, before Bai Yu could even open her mouth to explain, Qing Siling had already started playing dirty tricks.

"I've been completely honest with Bai Yu, so maybe even a girlfriend isn't suitable anymore?"

Good heavens, as soon as he said that, Bai Yu really wanted to slap Qing Siling across the face. What the hell was this guy thinking?

"Hey, hey, hey, what nonsense are you talking about? Don't listen to his nonsense. His name is Qing Siling. He's the older brother of Qing Sisi, the one you met last time. Don't they look a bit alike?"

Bai Yu doesn't like jokes about homosexuality. Although Qing Si Ling is indeed a bit annoying, Bai Yu is still quite normal.

Even if Bai Yu's persona in front of Si Yu is indeed gay, it doesn't mean he actually wants to be gay.

After hearing Bai Yu's words, Li Cheng and the other two could hardly believe their eyes.

After all, Qing Siling doesn't look like a man at all. Of course, if you look closely, you can actually find a clue.

That is, although her long, black hair is very feminine, there is a touch of masculinity in her beauty. You can still tell the difference between the two by looking very carefully.

"No way, Bai Yu, you're kidding, he's a man?"

Feng Zhou pushed up his glasses and asked Bai Yu this question with some disbelief.

Bai Yu nodded firmly in response to the question and gave a serious explanation.

"Yes, he is indeed a man. He has everything you have, except that he looks a bit like a transvestite."

Bai Yu was never very polite to Qing Siling from their first meeting, and now it's become a habit.

However, Qing Siling didn't mind Bai Yu's impolite tactics. On the contrary, she felt that it made them feel more like brothers, that it was genuine, and that they would get along better in the future.

"No more joking around. I am indeed a man, and my sexual orientation is perfectly normal. I'm not some transvestite that Brother Baiyu is making up. I just naturally look more feminine. Just don't listen to Brother Baiyu's nonsense."

Upon hearing Qing Siling's words, Li Cheng replied somewhat jokingly.

"Damn, if you dressed up as a woman, who would be able to tell? I think my sexual orientation might become abnormal because of you."

Hearing Li Cheng's words, Qing Siling couldn't help but roll her eyes at him, but that eye roll combined with her female voice was still too jarring.

"Don't mess around. I'm a respectable person. I have absolutely no interest in men. I like beautiful women."

It's really hard to believe that these words came from Qing Siling's mouth.

Between guys, the atmosphere is very important, and so are the topics of conversation.

Once the atmosphere and topics are right, the relationship can be established quickly.

Li Cheng, Wen Chiqi, and Feng Zhou didn't know Qing Siling before, but after chatting for a short while, they were able to start making all sorts of jokes.

Of course, this also depends on Qing Siling's good temper and her indifference to trivial matters; she might not be so easy to get along with if it were someone else.

It was almost 1 p.m. when Qing Siling drove Bai Yu and the others to Beicheng Mountain, and only then did they begin to prepare for lunch.

Of course, this meal was on Qing Siling's behalf, no doubt about it, and it was already agreed upon.

However, when Qing Siling led Bai Yu and the other three into a farmhouse restaurant in Beicheng Mountain, there were already three people in the private room they entered.

"Qing Siling, why are you so slow? Are these four your friends?"

A handsome young man, about 1.78 meters tall, who even gave Bai Yu a sense of déjà vu, stood up with a smile and greeted Qing Siling.

When Qing Siling saw the young man, she smiled and waved her hand, indicating that he should sit back down before speaking.

"Brother Chun, why are you being so polite? We're all family, there's no need to be so formal. Let's just act like usual, whatever we want."

As she said this, Qing Siling turned to look at Bai Yu and Li Cheng, and then introduced them one by one.

This guy named Chun Ge is actually named Murong Chun, who is Murong Liyue's older brother. Bai Yu doesn't know him, but they have met once before.

The other young man sitting next to Murong Chun, dressed in a gray casual suit and with a somewhat artistic air, was named Liu Ziqi. His family was in business, though the specifics of their business were not specified; in short, he was a wealthy young master.

There was another young man who was a bit chubby and not very tall, probably around the same height as Wen Chiqi, between 1.6 and 1.7 meters. His name was "Liu Lu". Qing Siling didn't mention what his family did, but of course, people in this circle wouldn't be without status.

After Qing Siling introduced everyone, they officially began eating.

This situation wasn't a big deal for Bai Yu; Feng Zhou was, after all, a rich second-generation, so he could handle it.

However, Li Cheng and Wen Chiqi seemed a bit reserved. After all, they couldn't seem to get a word in edgewise about the atmosphere in the private room or the topics Qing Siling and the others were discussing.

Of course, Bai Yu couldn't get a word in edgewise either, so it wasn't a big deal.

Furthermore, Bai Yu had no intention of getting involved with these people, especially Murong Chun, who was Murong Liyue's brother; it was best to avoid too much contact with him.

As for the other two, there's no need to contact them.

Bai Yu didn't know Qing Si Ling's true purpose in inviting her, but she could tell more or less that it wasn't just a casual visit.

From Qing Siling's ten sentences that all revolved around himself, it was clear that he wanted him to get to know these young men.

But I'm really sorry, Bai Yu feels that she has too many things to do and simply doesn't have time to mingle in their circle, and she always feels like she can't fit in.

To be honest, this trip was just to get a free meal and a hot spring trip from Qing Si Ling; there was really no other intention.

Of course, Bai Yu still had to maintain appearances, after all, no one had provoked him, so he couldn't keep a sour face, could he?

Bai Yu didn't want to actively approach the two noble young masters, Liu Ziqi and Liu Lu, which was fine, but Murong Chun had no choice but to passively approach him.

Murong Chun had met Bai Yu before; he had seen Bai Yu when she came to Murong Liyue's birthday party last time. His mother had even argued with his sister, Murong Liyue, over Bai Yu's presence.

Murong Chun was also thinking that if she had the chance, she should subtly inquire about the specific relationship between her sister and Bai Yu. If there was some kind of relationship, she would also like to ask about their family background.

Even if their family background isn't too good, it can't be too bad either. Otherwise, even if they love each other, their mothers will never agree, and it will only cause them more sorrow.

As for the idea of ​​letting Murong Chun rebel against her mother Murong Meng, that's a joke. In the whole family, the only one who can and dares to rebel is her younger sister Murong Liyue. Apart from her, anyone who dares to rebel is just asking for trouble.
