Jinxiu City.

As the gentle morning light filtered through the window and spilled over the soft velvet bed, Bai Zhiqing, who had slept soundly through the night, finally awoke.

She slowly sat up, lazily stretched, outlining a perfect body curve, creating a scene that could make one's nose bleed.

Bai Zhiqing's figure was truly alluring, with waterfall-like long hair, strands gently resting on her swan-like neck, her skin flawless like white jade, as pure as snow and ice. Her soft, white, slender waist rivaled that of a young girl's, and her pair of beautiful legs were straight and long.

She sat quietly on the bed for a minute, letting her mind clear, and then remembered what happened last night.

After Jiang Feng brought her home, she succumbed to her emotions, couldn't hold back, and ended up pulling Jiang Feng to stay overnight...

Thinking back now, she felt she had been too forward, too bold.

"How could I act like that last night?" Bai Zhiqing patted her cheeks, feeling very shy.

But immediately after, she recalled Jiang Feng's response—faced with her invitation, Jiang Feng was unmoved and even pushed her away?!

This left Bai Zhiqing feeling a bit indignant.

She deeply questioned her own allure!

Could it be that I'm not pretty enough, not sexy enough?

Impossible, from any perspective, she was top-notch among women, those lousy men would be on their knees kissing her toes right away, yet why was Jiang Feng so unaffected?

"Hmph! That little rascal!" Bai Zhiqing thought angrily, feeling that Jiang Feng had bruised her self-esteem to some extent.

Grumbling as she got out of bed, she went to the bathroom for a shower, made herself some egg toast, and reluctantly ate it despite having no appetite. She then carefully applied makeup and deliberately changed into even more beautiful and charming clothes before heading out to work.

As for whom the refined makeup and stunning outfit were meant for, only she knew.

Driving her Audi, she arrived at the Fengming Building and saw Jiang Feng arriving just as she did.

In fact, Jiang Feng also got up early. To avoid suspicion, he waited for Nangong Qingcheng to leave before taking a taxi to work, not expecting to run into Bai Zhiqing as soon as he got out.

Bai Zhiqing looked even more stunning today than yesterday!

She wore office attire, a white blouse paired with a short skirt, perfectly outlining her slender and graceful body. Her skin, as smooth as ice and as soft as cream, was incredibly alluring, especially her long legs, almost fully exposed under the short skirt, which were like the gleaming, smooth surface of the moon. Her long, shapely legs were clothed in flesh-colored stockings, her soft, white thighs tightly wrapped, exuding a mature office lady vibe from head to toe.

Seeing Bai Zhiqing like this, and recalling what happened at her home last night, Jiang Feng pretended nothing happened and greeted her with a smile: "Good morning, Sister Bai."

"Hmph!" Bai Zhiqing shot Jiang Feng a cold glance, snorted through her nose, and went upstairs without looking back.

"Uh."

Jiang Feng watched her back and rubbed his nose, wondering what got into her today to be in such a bad mood...

Shaking his head, Jiang Feng headed straight to the security room in the back.

As soon as he entered, a strong odor hit him. It was obvious that Heizi and Feng Na had quite a battle here last night, with the mess on the floor as evidence.

Heizi was cleaning up the room and, upon seeing Jiang Feng, quickly gathered the scattered items with an embarrassed smile: "Bro, what brings you so early?"

"Hmm." Jiang Feng helped him pick up a pair of underpants from the floor and tossed it onto the bed, then sat down in the security chair to start his day.

"Bro, you know something? Something big happened in Binhai last night!" Heizi finished tidying up, looking as if he knew some big secret, and excitedly told Jiang Feng.

"What secret?" Jiang Feng asked casually while playing on the computer.

"Last night, Tiger, the infamous subordinate of Mr. Scar, the big shot of North City, came to South City to catch a guy. I've heard they were going to chop him up, but guess what, Tiger and his men dragged the guy to an abandoned construction site and ended up failing. Instead, Tiger and his men vanished without a trace. Later, Mr. Scar sent people over to look, but they found nothing." Heizi recounted, his mouth running with excitement, though it was unclear where he'd heard such information.

"Is this really a big deal?" Jiang Feng chuckled, appearing indifferent.

"Damn! If this isn't a big deal, then what is?" Heizi stared wide-eyed at Jiang Feng, incredulous. For people like them at the bottom, they'd never have the chance to enter the high-society circles set by those big shots, but they remained intensely curious and fascinated by them. Whenever there was any stir among those big figures, the flames of gossip would blaze intensely. They lived unafraid of trouble, reveling in the chaos.

"That's Mr. Scar! Don't you get it? In North City, he commands great power, on par with our South City's Chu Renxiong and West City's Feng Yueji. But I've heard that Tiger's actions stepped over a line, openly kidnapping someone on Chu Renxiong's turf, which apparently enraged Chu Renxiong. Everyone's watching to see his reaction." Heizi exaggerated dramatically.

"How do you know everything?" Jiang Feng found it amusing. All these events had transpired in less than ten hours since last night, yet the news spread so widely that even Heizi narrated it vividly.

"Gosh, what should I say about you? Not interested in anything, where's the joy in life for you?" Heizi was full of frustration: "But I've got to say, you're quite something with women. You even know the highly popular Chu Feifei. And quick, tell me, did anything happen when you took Supervisor Bai home last night? She was practically out cold at the time."

As he spoke, Heizi's mischievous side emerged, his mind likely wandering to who knows where, his eyes almost glowing with envy.

"What nonsense are you thinking? How could anything happen? I just took her home and left," Jiang Feng glared at Heizi intentionally.

"Damn! You're really... destined to be forever alone! You totally deserve the single life, missing such a golden opportunity. Even if you're not meant to climb the social ladder to a woman like Supervisor Bai, she's still a divorced woman, you know, not quite like young girls, if you catch my drift. How could you not seize the chance?"

Heizi seemed genuinely regretful, as if Jiang Feng missing a chance with Bai Zhiqing was more tragic than himself being inept in bed: "With your luck with women, it's a waste. Soon enough, no more beauties will come looking for you."

Just as he finished his sentence, a stern yet melodious woman's voice sounded from outside: "Jiang Feng, come out here!"
