Some People Walk a Lifetime's Road in a Single Day

"Hehe... As expected of you, BOSS. However, this question is really strange. It's not unusual for a secretary to be friendly to the Boss Liu, is it? Or to put it more bluntly, I like you and want to get into your bed."

"... Which statement is true?"

The sudden, high-speed straight ball caught Liu Bai off guard.

"All of them." Kafka's reply was accompanied by a smile, but the smile was not frivolous.

... Wait a minute, what exactly is my background setting?

Liu Bai fell into deep thought.

Meanwhile, standing nearby, I, Firefly Ying, listened to Kafka's five straight ball declarations of love, and the whole person clenched their fists and clenched their fists. Dream

At this moment, Firefly finally realized what "level difference" meant.

She could never learn to express her love so directly, no matter how hard she tried.

Who would directly say something like "I want to get into your bed"?

Firefly felt that even if she prepared herself mentally for a year, she probably still wouldn't be able to say those words.

When it comes to confessing your love, shouldn't you find a more romantic place?

For example, a garden under a blue sky, a rooftop at sunset, a Ferris wheel at midnight... and so on.

Who confesses their love so directly in a car... No, this isn't a confession at all! It's like an animal courting!

Vulgar! Extremely vulgar!

The Firefly mentality began to shift from internal strife to an explosive one.

"What's the reason?" Bai was still a little confused.

"The reason is... well, three parts profit, seven parts sincerity?"

"... If you reversed this number, I might believe it."

"This might be what they call love at first sight!"

"..."

The idea of love at first sight coming from a "bad woman" like Kafka... feels completely unreliable.

There's even a slightly ominous feeling that "if you believe it, you'll be hooked and become a cuckold."

"Hmm... okay, I know it sounds abrupt, BOSS, how about we... um, start by 'pretending to be in a relationship,' like in novels? I think we might actually get along quite well."

Kafka's eyes held a hint of allure as she smiled and awaited Liu Bai's reply.

This kind of cliché plot has come up!

This... this is just too enviable!

Firefly clenched her fists.

Although her mech was damaged and most of its functions were unusable, some of her light individual physical weapons were still usable.

If it were a different time or a different person, she might have offered a few words of blessing, but at this time, with this person... all she wanted to do now was draw her sword and smash Kafka.

"... Firefly, are you feeling unwell?"

Liu Bai changed the subject.

Well, he didn't know how to respond to Kafka's answer.

How to put it? It's so cliché that you can see how things will unfold at a glance—though it's very tempting.

But as I said before, there's a sense of unease that Diaocheng is about to be overtaken.

If he really wanted to pretend to be in a relationship, Liu Bai felt he could go to Acheron, Acheron would definitely not refuse.

After Acheron helped him deplete his energy last time, and the effects of the Elixir of Love wore off, Acheron's favorability rating remained at 80.

This is a truly significant improvement.

In addition, that kind of thing did break the ice, so at least from Liu Bai's perspective, if he were to suggest something to Acheron would be unlikely to refuse.

Of course, if I had to point out Kafka's strengths, it would be that she makes a lot of noise and has a lot of reactions in bed—definitely more than Acheron.

The "exciting" aspects of a cold, aloof beauty and a charming, mature woman... are a matter of opinion.

Of course, there's also the fact that this kind of thing shouldn't be discussed at all right now!

Helpless, Liu Bai admitted that he was a little tempted, but he still changed the subject.

"Huh? I'm... I'm fine! I'm perfectly fine now!"

Upon hearing Liu Bai's voice, Firefly immediately sat up straight. After calming down slightly, Firefly looked at Kafka.

"Um... Miss Kafka, could you move over there a bit? You're crowding me."

Firefly subtly made a sarcastic remark about Kafka's big butt.

Kafka didn't mind at all, politely apologized to Firefly, and then returned to the other side.

HP-0

Unable to break through the enemy's armor.

After Kafka finished bringing up the topic, the atmosphere in the car... apart from Kafka still having a smile on her face, the others had nothing to say.

After a while, the Gray Serpent stopped the car.

"We've arrived. The three of you can get off the bus now. I'll be waiting here at any time."

To be honest, Gray Serpent didn't know whether he should tell Mobius about what happened today.

On the one hand, Kafka does indeed exude a difficult and unapproachable aura.

On the other hand... I feel like there's no point in saying anything.

"By the way, Lord Liu Bai, if you need a means of transportation, I can arrange one for you."

The Gray Serpent suddenly spoke.

"What do you think of Natasha's four-seater supercar?"

"Hmm... that's good." Bai didn't expect Gray Serpent to say this, but thought about it.

Natasha's supercar is indeed very cool, the Raven's Happy Car...

It's a rather rare two-door, four-seater supercar.

"But I remember that car..."

"It will be available whenever you need it."

Price? Or is it a limited edition worldwide?

None of these are problems.

Since Gray Serpent brought it up, it's just a matter of whether or not to accept it.

"... Free."

"Certainly."

"... Well, please give me an invoice."

Liu Bai thought for a moment.

If Natasha knew about this, she would be furious.

"Raven ...I understand."

The Gray Serpent paused for a moment, then nodded knowingly.

Well, I have to say, after Liu Bai arrived, Natasha seemed like a stepmother's daughter.

Aside from combat, the World Serpent only provided Natasha with the most basic necessities of life: food, clothing, and shelter.

As for Liu Bai... sorry, he's been taken care of by everyone.

The World Serpent directly allocated funds to Natasha, allowing Natasha, a top-tier combatant of the World Serpent, to support Liu Bai.

In other words, their own Highlord has a sharp tongue but a soft heart, calling Natasha a "guinea pig breeder," but in reality, she's a nanny and bodyguard.

They're even giving away cars now. If Liu Bai isn't happy with his accommodations, giving him an island doesn't seem like a big deal in Gray Serpent's opinion.

... Hmm, it seems we really should consider Natasha's feelings.

Looking at it this way, my students do seem to be in a rather miserable state.

... plus Liu Bai's sinful nature.

It's not a problem if my own student likes him, but the problem is that my own mother also likes him.

"I will send you the car model tonight, and it can be delivered the next day after you select it."

Gray Serpent, realizing the relationship was becoming increasingly complicated, spoke in a somber tone.

"In addition, this is a complimentary bracelet with some money stored inside, probably around a million."

If Liu Bai had been shopping with Mobius or Natasha today, Gray Serpent would probably have given him a black card by now.

These two... well, even if Gray Serpent were willing to give it to them, they wouldn't have the guts.

Doing certain things carelessly can lead to repercussions later, especially when it comes to your own mother, who can be particularly petty in some ways...

The Gray Serpent is not afraid of death, but it will not dance in Mobius's minefield.

"Also, please remember to exchange contact information."

Gray Serpent still vividly remembers the incident where Acheron got lost.

Although we don't know the extent of the destructive power of these two aliens, it's best not to wander off.

"Thank you." Kafka and Firefly both accepted the communication bracelets and put them on.

"Hmm... I'll buy a few outfits that match this bracelet."

Kafka looked at the bracelet, and that was the first thing she said.

"Kafka is hopeless..." Firefly thought to herself.

"Speaking of which, Boss, that bracelet on your wrist is really beautiful. Is it also a communication bracelet?"

Kafka looked at the Mystic Jade Bracelet on Liu Bai's wrist, her tone filled with curiosity.

"Uh, yes, that's right, a communication bracelet."

Kafka's question made Liu Bai feel awkward for a moment.

Mentioning a third close female friend while shopping with two other women is a very dangerous thing, no matter how you look at it.

The Gray Serpent, still inside the car, silently glanced at Liu Bai outside.

In a way, he seemed to see Liu Bai's self-inflicted predicament.

Chapter 168 Some people walk in a day the path others take a lifetime to complete.

"Boss? What do you think of this outfit?"

Wearing a white shirt without a bra, a super short pencil skirt, and black stockings, Kafka walked out of the fitting room and asked Liu Bai with a smile.

It has to be said that this outfit perfectly matches Liu Bai's image as an "unconventional female secretary"—all that's missing is a pair of glasses to accentuate the contrast and make her appear more serious.

"...Fantastic."

"Liu Bai..."

Liu Bai was looking at Firefly with a sharp, critical gaze.

This kind of clothing is more than just improper.

It's blatantly immoral and indecent!

If you look even slightly down, you can see right through that bodycon skirt!

And that shirt, even if it's a shirt, shouldn't you wear a bra underneath?

"Then we'll buy it."

Upon hearing Liu Bai's answer, Kafka immediately nodded.

Then he smiled at the Firefly again.
