Inconsistent Inside and Out

Xiao Xiuqin was very dedicated to her work. Now that she was a manager, as long as her subordinates didn't make major mistakes, there were generally no issues, and her time was quite flexible. Since her promotion, she had worked diligently with outstanding efficiency, keeping the two departments of the Mingzhou Grand Hotel in perfect order. She rarely took leave, so this sudden outing didn't affect anything.

"Don't talk while sleeping, don't talk while eating, and sit up straight. Why are you leaning all over me, lounging in my lap? For a manager of the Mingzhou Grand Hotel, you sure lack etiquette."

Wang Yonggui looked at Xiao Xiuqin, who was leaning crookedly against him even while eating, and frowned as he lectured her. Xiao Xiuqin looked up and glared at him, unable to help but laugh.

"You have the nerve to say that? Isn't it all because of you? If it weren't for you, would I be sitting like this? You really don't know how to cherish a flower."

Wang Yonggui chuckled, looking at her lively figure and delicate face. Feeling her vibrancy, he leaned in and whispered, "Maybe you were Liu Ba’s girlfriend before! I don't know why, but whenever I see this body of yours, I can't control myself. Seeing you in that 'near-death' state makes me feel particularly satisfied, heh heh!"

"You’re sick. I won't give it to you next time."

"Fine, you said it. But when you 'go crazy,' you’re always cheering me on. You can't blame me; it takes two to tango."

Xiao Xiuqin blushed, feeling both fear and love for Wang Yonggui. Once she fell into that state of ecstasy, the spiritual cleansing made her physical desires reach their peak, and she no longer cared about anything else.

"Eat your food! Don't talk about that while eating." Xiao Xiuqin shyly placed a piece of meat into Wang Yonggui’s bowl. Her mouth said not to talk, but she was the one who continued: "Eat more meat to nourish your body. Say, Yonggui, you 'give' so much every time, will something happen?"

Wang Yonggui wasn't polite, chewing the meat with a smug expression. "I’ve always been this generous. Do you like it?"

"So you’re like this with the others too?"

Wang Yonggui nodded. To Xiao Xiuqin, Wang Yonggui was like a monstrous existence. He could do that and still be perfectly fine, even more energetic afterward. She thought to herself that no wonder he was so generous; his stamina was like a bull's.

After eating, the two clung to each other. Wang Yonggui held her in his arms, constantly taking liberties. As time passed, Xiao Xiuqin realized Wang Yonggui wanted more. She quickly spoke up to stop him, not out of fear, but because it wasn't convenient here. She knew his temperament; if they did it here, they would surely be caught.

"Yonggui, we haven't seen each other in a long time. Now that we’ve eaten, let’s go for a walk! You have so many beautiful confidantes, and all of them are powerful. Aren't you afraid they’ll see us?"

Wang Yonggui smiled, stood up, and pulled her along. "It’s fine."

Xiao Xiuqin was still worried. "Are you sure? I can't afford to mess with those women. Don't let me get dragged into it."

Wang Yonggui told her not to worry and that he would handle anything that happened. The two left the restaurant and strolled down the street under the spring sun. Although the weather was still a bit chilly, the sunlight felt warm and pleasant. He didn't lack money, clothes, or women now. He had more money than he could spend; as long as he didn't squander it, his life was perfect—the life he had always dreamed of.

They held hands as they walked down the street, unafraid of being seen. In this city, Wu Chunyan wouldn't care, Chen Xiaoyue wasn't around, and Song Yanran already knew about his situation. As for Li Dingding, after over a month in Phan Gau Village, she understood and accepted that he needed women for his cultivation, as long as he didn't get involved with complicated people or the red-light district.

As they walked, Wang Yonggui placed his hand on Xiao Xiuqin’s firm, round rear, occasionally squeezing to take liberties. The two touched and flirted, bathing in the sunlight as they moved forward. Unknowingly, they reached a familiar spot—a large park ahead, though it was sparsely populated. Only a few elderly people were sunbathing, listening to the radio, or practicing slow sword techniques.

Wang Yonggui suddenly lamented, "Remember? When I first brought you out here, you were so pretentious, not letting me touch you. Then after I took some liberties, you couldn't resist. At the critical moment, your boyfriend Liu Ba showed up and even tried to hit me. Seeing his furious and pained expression back then made me feel so satisfied. When I first arrived in Zhuque City, he thought I was here to flatter him and mocked me endlessly, even showing you off to find a sense of superiority. He never imagined that the thing he was proudest of would be taken by me. Now I can play however I want and sleep with you however I want, haha!"

Xiao Xiuqin looked at the park and said softly, "Wang Yonggui, let the past be the past! Actually, at first, I didn't know you were so rich and powerful. I also really disliked Liu Ba. Seeing you as a simple, handsome country boy with a good aura, I was a bit moved. Who knew that behind that, you were so wicked? Truly, you can know a person's face but not their heart."
