Life Is About Indulging

While Li Xian was in the restroom to relieve himself, Wang Meng had already settled the bill. It came out to over 1,370 yuan, with a significant portion going towards drinks.

The four cases of Tsingtao Pure Draft were finished clean, but none of them had reached their limit yet. As long as they didn't mix it with baijiu, beer was like drinking water, only requiring a few more trips to the restroom.

Li Xian's chubby face was flushed, his steps swaying as he walked, his eyes a little hazy. He looked like he was completely drunk, but in reality, he was doing fine. He was clear-headed and could have downed another five or six bottles without an issue.

They had planned for this possibility today; if worse came to worst, they would have used the [Strong Hangover Relief Tablet] to push through. But seeing the situation now, they had saved the hangover tablets.

None of the brothers were prepared to go all out today; they all held back. If one or two more people had shown up to stir the pot, the situation wouldn't have been so harmonious.

One could imagine, if a few more bottles of baijiu were ordered, Li Xian would probably be the only one able to walk out of here.

"Mengzi, you're quick. I said I was treating," Li Xian said, placing a hand on his shoulder.

"Uh..." Wang Meng let out a burp and said, "Isn't it all the same? It's all your money."

This guy was too sincere, still thinking about the ten thousand yuan Li Xian had given him and finding ways to spend it on Li Xian.

But Li Xian didn't take the money seriously at all. He still had over 34.3 million yuan lying in the bank that he hadn't spent. That was the real bulk of it.

"You rascal~" Li Xian didn't know what to say to him, so he instructed, "Follow me from now on. I'm short on people around me, so I'll trouble you to run around for me."

"Got it, Brother Xian. You don't need to be polite with me. Just give me any orders, our relationship doesn't need that much formality!" Wang Meng patted his chest, a wide grin splitting his lips.

He looked even more intimidating when he smiled, the flesh on his face rippling and looking quite eerie.

Despite his fierce appearance, he was actually quite gentle in private. Of course, a good personality didn't mean he wouldn't get angry. If someone truly provoked him, they'd have to consider if their own body was enough for him to manhandle.

What Li Xian valued was his character; he was absolutely loyal to his brothers, willing to go through fire and water for them in a heartbeat. Just like with Lu Yang that time, if Li Xian had said the word, he would have rushed forward immediately without any hesitation.

Li Xian would definitely not shortchange a brother like this; he would think of him first when something good came up.

Li Xian didn't have many friends to begin with, and those he could confide in were few and far between. Everyone present, without exception, were brothers who had stood the test of time.

If their relationship wasn't strong enough, he wouldn't have brought them here to discuss important matters.

"Brothers, it's still early. What should we do next?" His gaze swept over Sui Jiji and Sun Wei. He had glanced at his watch earlier; it wasn't even nine o'clock yet. Going back now would be too early.

"Go take a bath?"

Sui Jiji and Sun Wei said in unison. They exchanged a look, a mischievous smile playing on their lips. Everything was understood without words.

Li Xian knew what these two were thinking. He turned to Wang Meng and asked, "Do you want to go too?"

"Go... go," Wang Meng's tongue was a little clumsy, but his expression was full of longing.

Li Xian smiled, thinking: These buddies have no ambition, only thinking of taking a bath.

If I wanted to have fun, it would at least be club models, top-tier escorts, and the Sea Tian Sheng Yan.

Alright, he hadn't had a chance to indulge since getting rich. Mainly, he was rushing to spend money and complete tasks, leaving him no time to think about other things. Of course, the more important reason was the absence of a senior guide.

Sui Jiji was a good driver, but his class was a bit low.

Li Xian was someone who aimed to be on par with Principal Wang. Whether it was competing in wealth or in connections, he feared no one.

"Look at you guys... Fine, fine, let's head to Shang Shui then?" Li Xian said with a playful curse.

"No, Shang Shui isn't good," Sui Jiji said, winking. "A buddy of mine recommended a place, newly opened near the Digital Plaza, called Shui Man Ting. I was planning to go sometime, let's check it out together now."

"Okay, you lead the way. No need to drive, I'll call for a car," Li Xian said, calling Lin Yuan to arrange a car.

They had all drunk quite a bit, so it was best not to challenge national laws.

After waiting at the entrance for about ten minutes, a black Sprinter President slowly pulled up in front of them.

Lin Yuan got out of the passenger seat and respectfully opened the door for Li Xian and the others.

"Mr. Li, shall I drive your car back for you?" Lin Yuan asked.

Li Xian nodded and said, "Yes, and there's also an Audi Q5. Find a designated driver for that one too."

After giving the instructions, the group got into the car. Li Xian took out two packs of Nine-Five Supreme and handed them to Wang Meng and Sui Jiji.

Sun Wei didn't smoke. He fiddled with the mini-fridge and took out a bottle of red wine, saying, "With a G-Wagon and a Sprinter, driving cars like these to a bathhouse, isn't that a bit of a waste?"

As he spoke, he looked at Sui Jiji, who slapped his thigh in regret, saying, "Yeah. We're letting Brother Xian off easy. We should have found a better place."

"Then you find one. Stop talking nonsense," Li Xian retorted with a smile. You're the one leading, and you can't even lead properly, yet you're blaming me, the one spending money?

"Next time... I'll inquire," Sui Jiji said, lighting a cigarette.

Li Xian chuckled, pulled out some Deodorant Gum from his pocket and distributed it to them. Then, he lit a cigarette for himself, rolled down the window, and enjoyed the night breeze while admiring the cityscape.

The night in Bincheng was brilliantly lit, and the scenery was breathtaking. Looking out the window, his thoughts gradually drifted, recalling the past few days. Everything felt so surreal, yet it was real.

With a car and a house, and a career, he would be completely established here.

What about the future? Looking across the country, or even the world, the ambition was a bit far-fetched, but not entirely out of reach. With the Money Spending Game, he felt completely confident.

Slowly retracting his gaze, Li Xian felt he had drunk a bit too much and was thinking too much.

Damn System... Ptooey, System Daddy, you're in charge of paying wages, and I'm in charge of spending wildly. Our division of labor is clear, and our cooperation is pleasant.

Li Xian slightly raised the corner of his mouth. This was the correct way to live.

"Welcome."

The welcoming lady at the entrance had a sweet smile, and her appearance was above 75 points. With such qualifications to be a greeter, it was clear this bathhouse was no ordinary place.

The decor of this shop leaned towards a Chinese style. Upon entering the lobby, one could feel many Chinese elements, such as small bridges and flowing water, rock gardens and ancient stones, as well as many decorative paintings of green bamboo scrolls.

Of course, they weren't here to admire the decor. Li Xian and the others changed into their shoes, grabbed their number tags, and headed straight for the changing rooms.

Before long, four naked, burly men were lined up in a 42-degree bath.

Li Xian and Wang Meng, being the heavyweights, occupied a considerable amount of space, squeezing Sun Wei and Sui Jiji into a corner.

Sun Wei was less than 1.8 meters tall and quite thin, weighing only around 70 kilograms. He had gained a little weight after coming to Binhai. Sui Jiji was a total stick figure, 1.8 meters tall but only weighing 65 kilograms.

In terms of appearance, Sui Jiji was currently ahead. His appearance score was 75. Wearing glasses made him look refined and quite deceptive.

Sun Wei originally had an appearance score of around 70, but unfortunately, he was a bit dark-skinned, which deducted some points. Plus, he had gained a little weight, so he couldn't compare to Li Xian at all now.

Wang Meng... well, this guy wasn't about appearance. His strength was enough to compensate for everything.

After soaking in the pool for about ten minutes, everyone had mostly sobered up. At this moment, Sui Jiji suddenly let out a strange cry, "Holy crap. Brother Xian. I didn't notice when we were eating earlier, how did you get so smooth? Your skin is too white, and your face... if it were a little thinner, it would be perfect."

"What? Wasn't I handsome enough before? Did you need a bath to wash your eyes clean?" Li Xian glanced at him.

"No, no. I really didn't notice earlier. Now, you're definitely this..." Sui Jiji gave a thumbs-up.

"Don't give me that. I'm not refusing to pay," Li Xian said dismissively. He thought: Wait until I raise my appearance to eighty. Damn it, this broken System insists I lose weight.

"Oh wow. This skin is smoother than my wife's hands," Sun Wei said belatedly, but even more exaggeratedly.

"Damn it. Don't touch me," Li Xian suddenly stood up from the pool, kicking Sun Wei away in disgust.

"Mengzi. Let's go get scrubbed first."

"Alright."

The two big men got out of the bath. Jiji and Wei Shao quietly followed behind, discussing, "598, 899, 1288, which one should we choose?"

Jiji said, "Of course, the most expensive one."

"Heh heh. I was thinking the same thing."

Just then, the phone hanging around Li Xian's neck rang. He glanced at it and turned to Sun Wei, saying, "Your wife is checking up on you. What should I tell her?"
