Xiao Lang, You Scoundrel, What Are You Trying to Do!

Back mountain.

"Stupid Xiao Lang! Dead Xiao Lang! Why are you so nice to me, then so indifferent! If it weren't for that Qi Gathering Powder, I would have beaten you up long ago!"

After choosing her Cultivation Method, Xiao Yu grumbled her way to the back mountain. She had discovered a hot spring there and decided it was perfect for a soak in the late autumn weather.

The temperature was just right; you wouldn't catch a cold without clothes, nor would you feel hot in the water. It was the ideal time for a hot spring.

Ever since she learned yesterday that a single Qi Gathering Powder was worth over a hundred thousand gold coins, Xiao Yu's previously calmed heart began to stir again.

A hundred thousand gold coins wasn't like ten or so coins. How could she ever repay such a debt?

Thus, Xiao Yu's mood was incredibly complex. But the thought of Xiao Xun'er being so close to Xiao Lang, always whispering and flirting, made her even more agitated.

Before long, Xiao Yu arrived at a secluded cave. She shed her clothes, revealing her perfect figure. Especially her pair of shapely, long, fair legs – even without the adornment of stockings and high heels, they were enough to drive countless leg enthusiasts wild.

Soaking in the hot spring, Xiao Yu gently traced her own fair skin, inevitably comparing herself to Xiao Xun'er.

She felt that apart from a slight deficiency in looks and temperament, her figure had long since developed beautifully. The only minor flaw was that she wasn't quite as full and voluptuous.

But her long legs were famous throughout Wutan City; countless eyes would fixate on her the moment she stepped out.

"I wonder what's so great about that underdeveloped little brat!" Xiao Yu couldn't help but scoff coldly.

However, she also knew that once Xiao Xun'er grew a few more years older, these legs would be the only thing she could boast over her.

Thinking of this, Xiao Yu furrowed her pretty brows, her eyes filled with bitterness.

"When I get to Jia Nan Academy, I should be able to forget him," Xiao Yu mused, realizing that the Jia Nan Academy enrollment was only a month away. She would sign up then.

Away from the Xiao family, away from him.

Outside the cave.

Xiao Lang sprinted rapidly, following the coordinates given by the system with a swagger that acknowledged no one.

This was a great feature.

The system's choices always came with markers. For example, this cave had precise coordinates in Xiao Lang's mind, similar to the golden markers for quest targets in online games.

Soon, Xiao Lang arrived in front of the cave. He saw that the golden marker for the cave was deep inside. Xiao Lang knew Xiao Yu must be in there.

The thought brought to mind Xiao Yu's long, straight, fair legs.

Heh heh heh.

Slurp.

"Little sister, let your big brother bear all this for you," Xiao Lang said with righteous indignation. "What national prosperity and peace? It's just your big brother forging ahead, carrying the burden for you!"

"To let my little sister cultivate with peace of mind, without women affecting her draw speed, what's a little sacrifice for your big brother!"

With that, Xiao Lang walked to the cave entrance and deliberately spoke loudly, "Huh? Is that the smell of a hot spring? I didn't expect there to be a hot spring in the back mountain. Perfect timing for a bath."

"It's him?!"

Xiao Yu, who was lost in thought, jolted instantly. She clearly recognized the voice of the scoundrel who had been keeping her up at night.

But she was completely naked right now. If he came in, wouldn't she be...

Thinking this, Xiao Yu's already flushed face turned even redder, as if she were about to steam.

"What do I do? What do I do? Judging by the footsteps, I don't have time to get dressed," Xiao Yu listened to the approaching footsteps, completely flustered.

"Don't come in, I'm inside!"

With no other choice, Xiao Yu finally spoke, her face burning.

"Who's talking?"

To her surprise, Xiao Lang pretended not to hear and walked even faster.

If you weren't inside, I wouldn't be coming in.

With a roguish smile, Xiao Lang was already impatient.

He who doesn't take advantage of a good deal is a bastard.

"Bastard!"

Xiao Yu knew this scoundrel Xiao Lang would act this way. She had no choice but to submerge her entire body underwater. Fortunately, the light in the cave wasn't strong, and hiding in the water meant this scumbag couldn't take advantage of her.

Yet, for some reason, Xiao Yu felt a sliver of anticipation.

"So it's you, you little vixen. You dared to provoke me before. If I don't teach you a lesson now, I'm no man!"

Xiao Lang walked to the edge of the hot spring. Seeing Xiao Yu, whose body was submerged in the water with only her head showing, he smirked, like a great villain about to strip.

"Xiao Lang, you scoundrel, what do you think you're doing!"

Xiao Yu watched as Xiao Lang, without a word, took off his shirt, revealing his skin as white as jade. What was unexpected was that despite Xiao Lang's seemingly slender build, his physique was incredibly perfect.

Eight-pack abs, and perfectly sized muscles – neither weak nor bulky. The clearly visible muscle lines were full of power.

This was, of course, the result of Xiao Lang's training over the past eight years, all aimed at perfecting his physique. After all, an excellent playboy must also be strict with his body management.

To chase different girls, you need different capital.

For those who are materialistic, you need money. That's why Xiao Lang has been snowballing his wealth over the past eight years.

If you're a looks-obsessed person, then you have to be handsome. Xiao Lang wasn't worried about this point; his looks in this life were even more dashing than in his previous one.

If you're a body-obsessed person, then he had to maintain a perfect physique. Eight-pack abs and well-defined muscles were essential.

"What do you want? What do you think I want?" Xiao Lang's lips curved into a devilish smile. He then licked his lips and was about to undo his belt.

"You scoundrel!"

Xiao Yu immediately covered her eyes with her hands, but subconsciously peeked through her fingers, feeling both scared and expectant. She didn't even realize this emotion herself.

"Brother Xiao Lang, are you in there?"

Just then, Xiao Xun'er's voice rang out from outside. Xiao Lang froze completely. What was this situation?

If Xiao Xun'er saw this scene, how would he explain it?

Would you believe me if I said it was all a coincidence?

No one would believe that!

Even though it was indeed all a "coincidence," one person naked, another taking off clothes – who would believe that?

"Scared?"

Seeing Xiao Lang hesitate at Xiao Xun'er's voice, a strange jealousy suddenly surged within her. She stood up directly, revealing her slender and fair body, and said with a look of disdain, "You can't just talk big, can you?"

"Gulp!"

The sound of Xiao Lang swallowing could be clearly heard. He had never seen such perfect curves before. After all, although he was a playboy in his past life, how much money could someone who was kicked out by the CX Organization have?

In that world where only money mattered, if Xiao Lang hadn't been tall and handsome, calling him a playboy would have been an insult to the term.

After all, to be a playboy, you must be handsome, over 1.8 meters tall, and rich.

Xiao Lang could only rely on his looks and height to pick up girls, so he rarely picked up girls as exceptional as Xiao Yu.

Therefore, he was indeed stunned when he saw Xiao Yu revealing herself to him so openly.

"Brother Xiao Lang? Are you in there?"

But Xiao Xun'er's increasingly close footsteps immediately brought him back to his senses.

"Don't chicken out. Weren't you going to undo your belt? Need me to help you?"

Xiao Yu walked over charmingly, her long, fair legs gradually emerging from the water, incredibly alluring.
