24: Am I not pretty enough? I was completely ignored.

"Yeah, it's me." Zhang Yu smiled and said.

"Then, what's going on with Di Xiaoba? Why didn't she answer the phone?" Lu Hanxiao was a bit anxious.

"Di Xiaoba had a bit to drink, and she's at the hotel now, already asleep," Zhang Yu said simply.

"What, a hotel? You got a room together?"

Over in Su City, Lu Hanxiao's voice rose a few decibels, attracting Pan Yuyao, who had just come out after taking a shower.

"Sister Xiao, who got a room?"

"Di Xiaoba, she's actually with the Landlord." Lu Hanxiao didn't hide it.

This Landlord really knows how to seize every opportunity.

Does he really want to not let a single one go?

Lu Hanxiao felt that this Zhang Yu was truly terrifying.

He was like a flood or a ferocious beast, impossible to guard against.

Then she said to Zhang Yu, "Landlord, if you're a gentleman, don't you dare do anything bad while she's asleep."

Lu Hanxiao was a bit anxious.

She also knew, what was the use of a warning? It was simply out of reach.

If he ignored her, by the time she got back, the raw rice would have already been cooked into porridge.

If they weren't separated by over a thousand miles, she would have wanted to fly back immediately.

It felt like a sheep had already entered a tiger's den, just waiting to be swallowed.

But at this distance, if he really wanted to do something, it would be too late by the time she got back.

Who could understand this feeling of helplessness?

"I never said I was a gentleman." Zhang Yu knew what she was worried about and couldn't help but smile, "But don't worry. By the way, what did you want to say when you called her? I'll tell her when she wakes up."

"Oh, it's like this."

Lu Hanxiao remembered that in her anxiety, she had forgotten to say the important thing.

Although it was meant for Di Xiaoba, telling the Landlord was the same.

He would pass it on.

"Yuyao and I have agreed to spend tomorrow shopping in Su City, so we'll be back a bit late."

"That's it?" Zhang Yu raised an eyebrow.

He thought it was some urgent matter; to think she had to emphasize this specifically.

"That's it." Lu Hanxiao nodded, "If there's nothing else, I'll hang up now."

After hanging up, Lu Hanxiao looked at Pan Yuyao.

Neither of them spoke, and the atmosphere was somewhat silent.

Both felt that the decision to wander around Su City was a bit rash.

"Sister Xiao, is it alright that Xiao Ba is drunk? How about we just head back early in the morning?"

After learning about Di Xiaoba's situation, Pan Yuyao couldn't sit still.

Especially knowing that Zhang Yu was still by her side at this moment.

This state of mind was hard to describe in words.

Was it jealousy? Not exactly.

But there was a slight sense of sourness in her heart, like the mentality of two children fighting over a toy.

She had no issues with her good sister Di Xiaoba, but she just wanted to go back early.

"Okay, then we'll head back to Jiang City first thing in the morning."

Lu Hanxiao nodded.

Knowing about Di Xiaoba's situation, she had no heart to linger in Su City.

She wished it would be dawn immediately so she could catch the first bus back to Jiang City.

...

That detestable Zhang Yu!

She couldn't help but curse in her heart.

"Then, Sister Xiao, let's get some rest early."

The Airline Company had a long-term partnership with a hotel here in Su City.

Flight Attendants who couldn't make it back at night would stay in a double room and wait until the next flight to fly back.

The hotel was relatively close to the airport, meant for convenient travel back and forth.

The night passed without incident.

Zhang Yu kept his promise.

He chose to be "worse than a beast."

He just made do for the night on the sofa by the bed.

When the sky was just beginning to brighten, Di Xiaoba opened her beautiful eyes.

Lying on her side, her gaze happened to catch sight of Zhang Yu curled up on the sofa.

He was 185cm tall, and this 170cm sofa couldn't accommodate his body at all.

She then looked at her own body.

Although her clothes were a bit disheveled, they were all still on, and there were no other marks.

Nothing happened all night?

Di Xiaoba secretly felt relieved; fortunately, she hadn't lost her innocence in a confused state.

This Landlord Zhang Yu was truly a gentleman.

Since she was young, Di Xiaoba had liked men with a sense of justice, who were gentlemanly, poised, and capable of solving problems.

Seeing Zhang Yu lying there, her favorability towards him rose by another star.

Ten stars!!!

But the next second, a feeling of annoyance washed over her.

Am I not pretty enough, not charming enough?

Am I not likable enough to him?

He actually... had such good boundaries.

Thinking of this, Di Xiaoba felt as if she had been ignored by Zhang Yu.

She wanted to hit him.

At this moment, Zhang Yu suddenly opened his eyes.

Their eyes met, giving Di Xiaoba a fright, and she quickly withdrew her gaze.

She covered her head with the quilt, her heart beating very fast.

Zhang Yu squinted his eyes and looked outside; it was already bright.

The night had passed really quickly.

Moreover, he discovered with surprise that there was an unread notification in the system.

"Di Xiaoba's Peach Blossom Value has risen to 10 stars!"

It had arrived a few minutes ago.

Damn.

So fast, is it already maxed out?

Zhang Yu was surprised.

He had been intimate with Lu Hanxiao, and it hadn't even reached full marks, not even halfway.

And Pan Yuyao was a total "face-con," and he had even taken her for a joyride, yet it hadn't reached the max level.

The first one to reach full marks was actually Di Xiaoba?

Who could have thought of this?

He couldn't help but suspect, was the system's rating not quite accurate?

"Landlord, you're awake." Di Xiaoba was a bit embarrassed.

She slightly lowered her head.

A few strands of hair hung down somewhat messily, giving her a lazy, disheveled beauty instead.

"Yeah, are you sober?" Zhang Yu asked.

Then he got up and stood up.

"Yeah." Di Xiaoba's voice was very soft; the drunkenness had long faded, "Thank you."

She knew in her heart that he had been taking care of her all night.

Otherwise, she wouldn't know where she would be.

"Don't mention it." Zhang Yu smiled, "By the way, your Sister Xiao called last night."

"What did they say?" Di Xiaoba was a bit nervous.

"They didn't say much, just that they might be coming back a day late." Zhang Yu told her truthfully.

Upon hearing this, Di Xiaoba picked up her phone and checked her messages.

Then she said: "No, they are leaving early this morning and coming back."

"Huh? Changed their minds?"

This, Zhang Yu hadn't expected.

Didn't they say they were going to wander around Su City? Why come back so early?

But these things weren't important.

After thinking for a moment, Zhang Yu said to Di Xiaoba: "Then hurry up and get up to wash up; it's time for us to go back."

He looked out through the hotel window.

He saw the lamborghini parked in the parking lot at the entrance, surrounded by a dozen traffic cones.

There were also two security guards specifically guarding it.

"We must watch the guest's car well; if something goes wrong, selling both of us wouldn't be enough to pay for it!"

"Driving such a nice car out, isn't it just causing trouble for others?"

The security guard looked at the crowd of people surrounding the veneno sports car, all taking photos.

He was vigilant.

Such a cool sports car was appearing in Jiang City for the second time in many years.

Passersby had developed a strong interest in this car.

"My God, is this that sports car that was all over the internet last night?"

"Get rid of the 'is it', it is this one. There isn't a second one in all of Jiang City!"

"But why is this sports car here?"

"Are you talking nonsense? This is a hotel. In yesterday's video, the car was carrying a very beautiful Flight Attendant."

"So that means, the two of them last night..."

The onlookers quickly began to let their imaginations run wild.
