My System Forces Me to Live off Women-Chapter 169 -

"What are you thinking?!"

Xu Manning pretended to be annoyed: "I just think we should go back to the room to sleep. Are you sleeping?"

"Yes." Wu Wenyue hugged Xu Manning, sneering: "Or do you want me to let you sleep with him?!"

The two girls went back to the room to rest, while Li Peifeng was still in the shower, but he wasn’t as happy as before. It wasn’t because no one came in to join him for some crass couple’s bath.

Instead, Li Peifeng had thought he received a car worth over two hundred thousand as a gift. Although Xu Manning said it was for both of them, averaged out, it would at least give him two more chances to draw the lottery. Along with two previous ones, he could do a four-in-a-row draw, surely not missing out.

But reality is cruel because the system didn’t recognize the car Xu Manning gifted. After asking, he found out it’s because the car and company haven’t been transferred, so it doesn’t count as a gift...

"I should subtly bring this up with Manning later, asking her to transfer the car to both our names."

Li Peifeng was just thinking this when, coincidentally, the two girls were discussing the same issue in the adjacent room.

"If you have time tomorrow, you and Peifeng should come with me to do a business change. I’ll change the company legal person to you, and he can own half the shares. Legally, the car will be considered both of yours."

"No need."

Wu Wenyue lazily snuggled into the blanket: "That’s too much trouble; just keep it under your name."

"It’s best to change it."

Wu Wenyue frowned and countered: "Do you think with his personality, he’d agree to accept half of that company’s shares? It’s just a car; splitting the ownership half and half will make him too embarrassed to accept it. He’d only let me take it all, and that would make me embarrassed as well."

Xu Manning was speechless for a moment, remembering how she mistakenly thought Li Peifeng had a terminal illness and gave him three hundred thousand, only for him to return thirty-two thousand in a golden fund the next day, making her laugh: "That’s true."

"Xiaofeng is quite strong-willed and thinks about a lot of things."

Wu Wenyue sighed lightly: "Just keep the car under your name for now, and honestly, even if the car was more expensive, neither of us would dare to accept it. If you gifted it to him alone, he surely wouldn’t accept it either. You get it, right?"

You could say the relationship between the three is complicated, with different economic situations, making gift-giving not simple.

Whoever gifts to whom has to consider the other’s feelings to avoid jealousy or unnecessary pressure, maintaining the delicate balance between the three of them.

As usual, Li Peifeng would definitely do as Wu Wenyue said, but gaining access to the system made it hard for him to resist this reasonably priced big gift, completely ignoring any sense of propriety. At worst, he thought he could make it up to Xu Manning later. He really wanted it... Also, fortunately, Li Peifeng didn’t hear Wu Wenyue’s words, or his blood pressure would’ve skyrocketed.

"Got it!"

Xu Manning rolled her eyes: "So why did you get mad at me earlier and make me buy him a Mercedes?!"

"You said it yourself, I was deliberately provoking you..."

"Annoying!"

"You dare to hit me? Then I’m not going to be nice either."

"Hey, what are you doing?"

"Lie down! I’ll give you a full-body massage. Anything he can do, I can do too!"

"Haha, I don’t believe it..."

The two girls playfully scuffled, massaging and chatting about issues faced when starting a business.

Wu Wenyue, a college student turned media entrepreneur, was an outright newbie, while Xu Manning, an intern CEO who founded ’True Self’ apparel, had some half-baked experience from her previous career to share with the former.

On topics like team leadership, establishing correct financial perceptions, and communicating visions to employees.

About half an hour later, Wu Wenyue stopped the massage, pressed against Xu Manning, and gently kissed her cheek.

In the affectionate moment between the two girls, the whole room exuded a sweet and tangy atmosphere, but before they could do anything further, they heard the sound of the door handle turning.

"Creak!"

"Boom~"

Then, before they could react, the door opened. Wu Wenyue and Xu Manning were still in their intimate pose on the bed, the latter only managing to lift the blanket off her head, both looking toward the entrant with either embarrassment or surprise...

"What are you doing?"

"Who let you in? And dressed like that?"

Li Peifeng stood there in a white shirt, resembling a doctor’s coat, wearing a mask, disposable medical gloves, and clutching a thermometer in hand, his eyes revealing a serious look, and his tone reprimanding: "Separate! No cuddling! During a pandemic, not wearing a mask is one thing, but who told you to be so close? Do you want cross-infection?!"

"?"

"Huh?"

Both girls were baffled but obediently repositioned themselves on the bed, sitting up.

"That’s better."

Li Peifeng walked to the bed, holding the thermometer in one hand and signaling with the other, coldly saying: "You can call me Dr. Li. Now, I will conduct a nucleic acid test for you. Who’s first? Stand up and open your mouth!"

Is this?

Could this be the legendary cosplay??

The two girls finally understood what was happening. Wu Wenyue wanted to curse him out, to drive Li Peifeng away before things got out of hand, but unable to voice it, she was inexplicably entranced by his look, her heart fluttering.

That damned mask made him look even more handsome; playing the doctor role suited him too. His authoritative tone was both awe-inspiring and intimidating, making her want to snuggle him, fiercely snuggle him.
