——System, scan Lin Xiaomo.
[Lin Xiaomo (Ex-girlfriend), Age: 24]
[Height: 166cm]
[Weight: 53kg]
[Appearance: 88]
[Physique: 88]
[Relationship Count: 1, Currently Single]
——Damn, there was no need to label her as "Ex-girlfriend."
Su Yang looked at the information on the virtual screen, his gaze shifting to the relationship count with some surprise.
——One? What's going on?
It was clear that the only relationship was with Su Yang himself.
——Impossible, she's such a playful person, and she hasn't dated anyone else in years?
——System, did you make a mistake?
[No mistake]
[Lin Xiaomo meets the binding criteria. Bind now?]
Su Yang fell silent. This was the most conflicted he had ever been. Firstly, he hadn't expected Lin Xiaomo to score above 85. Secondly, he was surprised she hadn't dated anyone after their breakup.
However, Su Yang believed in not going back to old flames. Even if he bound her, it was impossible for them to get back together, but he still didn't want to bind her.
——Don't bind.
[Detected that Lin Xiaomo is the host's ex-girlfriend and has a high base favorability towards the host. Binding will yield generous rewards. Are you sure you don't want to bind?]
——What the heck, now that you put it like that, for the rewards, I'll just...
[Ding, Binding successful. Lin Xiaomo's favorability towards host: 60. Reward: 2 million cash and the God of Wine skill.]
Su Yang: ...
——Damn it, you bound her before I even finished speaking?
——I seriously suspect you get a commission when I bind someone.
[That is not the case]
——But it's not bad, not a loss. I even got a drinking skill. Finally, it's here, hehe. Tell me about it.
[God of Wine: Cannot get drunk]
——That's it?
[That's it]
——Fine, fine, you're getting lazier and lazier.
"Su Yang?"
Lin Xiaomo, seeing Su Yang standing still, waved her hand in front of his eyes.
Su Yang was instantly pulled out of his conversation with the system.
"What's up?"
"What are you spacing out for? Did I say something wrong?"
Lin Xiaomo asked persistently, while the effeminate man beside them watched with a smile, remaining silent.
"If you keep targeting me with this, I won't mind making sure you can't get out of bed," Su Yang said quietly and sternly.
"Oh? Did you really get surgery then?" Lin Xiaomo chuckled, still unbothered.
"Get your sister."
"Then I'd really like to try again."
'Damn it.' Su Yang cursed inwardly, speechless, and ignored Lin Xiaomo.
"Xiao Yun, how about we go watch a movie after we finish eating?" Su Yang said as he ate.
"Sure, but are there any good movies out recently? I haven't kept up with new movies in a while."
Lu Yun had been watching Su Yang chat with Lin Xiaomo the whole time. Although she felt a bit uncomfortable, she maintained a calm demeanor.
"I don't know either, let's check later."
"Okay."
Twenty minutes later, Su Yang and Lu Yun had finished eating.
Seeing that they were almost done, Lu Yun quickly went to the counter to pay, afraid Su Yang would rush to pay.
Su Yang just smiled. He didn't feel the need to rush to pay for a hot pot meal.
The best state for men and women to be in is one of mutual effort. A relationship where the man solely invests and spends money, while the woman only enjoys it, cannot last.
Su Yang understood this very well.
While Lu Yun went to pay, Lin Xiaomo took out her phone again and smiled at Su Yang, "Are you sure you don't want to add my WeChat?"
"No, our relationship ended long ago. Adding each other again is meaningless."
"Oh, alright. I was hoping to experience your 'mightiness,' hearing you talk so impressively. What a shame."
"Heh, I'm not interested in you right now. Go find someone else to experience it with," Su Yang said, picking up his bag and heading for the door.
A fleeting hint of sadness flashed in Lin Xiaomo's eyes, but no one noticed.
After leaving the hot pot restaurant, Su Yang took out his phone and opened Tuantuan to check for newly released movies.
"How about this one?" Su Yang handed his phone to Lu Yun.
Lu Yun glanced at it and said, "There's 'A Little Scene by the Clouds.' That sounds good. I heard it's quite a decent movie."
"Then it's settled. I'll buy the tickets. The 9:10 PM showing, is that okay?"
"Okay."
"Great, tickets bought. It's about 8 PM now. Shall we go to the mall for a stroll, or find a coffee shop to sit in?"
"Either is fine with me. How about we go for a walk? We can also help digest our food."
"Sure, let's go."
As they spoke, the two headed towards the mall.
Lu Yun suddenly felt an urge to ask Su Yang about his current relationship with Lin Xiaomo, but the thought was immediately suppressed as soon as it arose.
She sneakily glanced at Su Yang, but he didn't notice.
What am I doing? Why am I having this thought? It's none of my business who they interact with, why should I ask? I can't have this thought anymore. Disappear, disappear!
Soon, the two entered a large shopping mall. Su Yang noticed many cosmetic shops on the first floor.
He smiled, "Let's go take a look at some perfume."
"Are you buying perfume?" Lu Yun looked up at Su Yang in surprise.
She hadn't expected a manly guy like Su Yang to wear perfume.
However, she didn't say much and followed Su Yang towards a Dior store.
At that moment, a sales associate immediately greeted them with a smile. She had noticed Su Yang and Lu Yun from the moment they entered the mall.
After all, the two of them garnered quite a few glances as they walked; he was handsome, she was beautiful, and both were exceptionally outstanding.
It was hard not to be drawn to them.
The sales associate saw Su Yang wearing trendy clothes and a pricey watch on his wrist, and she knew he was wealthy.
"What can I help you with, handsome and beautiful?"
"Just browsing. Do you have perfume?"
"Of course! Our perfumes sell very well, with both men's and women's fragrances."
"See which scent would suit her," Su Yang said, looking at Lu Yun beside him.
Lu Yun then realized Su Yang intended to buy her perfume.
Her face flushed, and she said shyly, "Su Yang, you don't have to buy me perfume. I have some."
"Just take a look. You treated me to dinner today, so it's only right for me to give you a gift. It's just returning the favor."
"But..." Lu Yun wanted to say, but we're not boyfriend and girlfriend.
In her opinion, buying perfume was something done either between very close female friends or between romantic partners.
"There's no 'but.' What's the big deal about me giving you a bottle of perfume given our relationship? Don't refuse, or I'll get angry."
Seeing Su Yang say it so righteously, Lu Yun, afraid he would genuinely get angry, said with a blushing face, "Okay, okay. Thank you then."
"Oh, why are you always so formal? Just be casual when you're with me. See which one you like. Maybe try some on first?" Su Yang turned to the sales associate and asked, "We can try them, right?"
"Yes, yes, please try as many as you like until you're satisfied," the sales associate said enthusiastically.
"Then you can introduce some to her."
"Certainly, beautiful lady, let me show you our latest perfumes..."
Seeing this, Lu Yun could only walk over with a blushing face.
Su Yang smiled and started browsing on his own. He had initially planned to buy himself some skincare products, but then he suddenly remembered his awesome skill, "Body Management Master." Why bother with skincare when he had that?
His skin was already in perfect condition, so there was no need to add skincare products unnecessarily.
He looked at the men's products in the store, but none were useful to him. These things had no effect on him, except for perfume.
However, he had never worn perfume. In his opinion, why would a grown man wear perfume? As long as one maintained body freshness and had no odor, that was enough.
