My System Forces Me to Live off Women-Chapter 237 - 214: Domestic Violence!

After driving for over forty minutes, everyone arrived at their destination. Throughout the journey in the car, Li Peifeng didn’t find an opportunity to talk to Wu Wenyue, but he figured climbing the Great Wall would be a good chance!

It was past ten in the morning, the sun was high, the sky was clear, and the air was crisp as everyone arrived at the Shuiguan Great Wall and bought tickets to enter.

The Great Wall follows the terrain of the mountains, with treacherous terrain, like a giant dragon undulating through the lofty mountains, and like a roc spreading its wings ready to fly, traversing the cliffs and precipices.

The castles are connected, the beacon towers overlook each other, and the double-sided battlements repel thousands of enemies. The arrow towers serve as enemy towers and also have the function of sluice gates. This type of architecture is very rare along the Great Wall, hence the name Shuiguan Great Wall.

Its entertainment value for money is the highest among the three Great Walls in the Capital; it can be described in one sentence: "Few people, beautiful scenery, steep slopes!"

"This isn’t just steep! This makes my legs tremble!!"

In the studio, there were two employees who originally had classes today, but upon hearing there was an outdoor shoot and a chance for a company-funded trip, they both informed their teachers and skipped class.

But now, seeing how steep the Great Wall was, they felt a slight twinge of regret.

"How about it? Is your back injury okay?"

Li Peifeng carried a large travel bag filled with the clothes Wu Wenyue needed to change into for the shoot. He intentionally slowed down to walk behind with Wu Wenyue, hoping to get a chance to chat...

"It’s fine."

Wu Wenyue nodded slightly. "Climbing stairs uses legs, not the back. You go ahead."

Despite her words, she walked slowly as the injury still had some effects.

"No need, I’ll stay with you."

Li Peifeng glanced around and noticed that after a few minutes, the five employees hadn’t gone far. If a gust of wind blew, their conversation would likely be overheard, especially by Mu An’an, who was walking right beside Wu Wenyue, constantly glancing at Li Peifeng with a keen eye...

Like guarding against a thief!

In fact, after interacting for some time, the five employees in the studio could all tell that Li Peifeng and Wu Wenyue’s relationship was not simple. They privately speculated but didn’t spread it around. Mu An’an had even considered Li Peifeng as a rival, second only to Xu Manning.

But Li Peifeng didn’t care!

"Everyone, put in a bit more effort, and we can reach the top in twenty minutes."

Li Peifeng stopped and encouraged loudly, holding Wu Wenyue’s hand: "If any of you reach the top before the two of us, I’ll treat you to a grand dinner. You choose the restaurant, pick the best one, and my budget is high."

Tang Yan, carrying equipment, interjected with a smile: "Brother Feng, how high? As high as you?"

Li Peifeng thought for a moment: "This section of the Great Wall is 6.8 kilometers... let’s say the dinner budget per person is 680 yuan!"

"Wow~ The boss is generous!"

"Brother Feng is mighty!"

"680 per person, for seven of us... that’s 4,760!!"

"This isn’t just 4,760? This is lobster, this is abalone, this is power! My power is coming!"

"For a grand dinner, charge ahead!"

At the mention of 680 per person, everyone laughed in surprise and suddenly became motivated. Regardless of gender, everyone picked up their pace climbing, and they began discussing which restaurant to choose that evening. Once their minds were occupied, their bodies seemed less tired.

After all, they were students. Even though the five employees in the studio were from well-to-do backgrounds, most hadn’t experienced a 680 yuan-per-person meal.

But Mu An’an didn’t budge, blinking her eyes and saying, "Brother Feng, I’m slow; I might lag behind you two."

No sense at all, are you looking to get fired!

Li Peifeng chuckled: "No worries, Wenyue is injured, we’ll walk slowly. You try to stay with them and find a suitable spot for filming."

Mu An’an responded with an "oh," glancing at Wu Wenyue.

"I’ll rest for a bit, An’an, you go ahead with them."

Wu Wenyue leaned against the railing, waving her hand. Mu An’an pouted before finally continuing forward.

"Yesterday..."

Seeing that everyone had moved away, Li Peifeng was about to speak, but Wu Wenyue quietly complained: "Are you crazy? Treating them to such an expensive meal? It would be better as bonuses."

The thrifty version of Brother Yue is finally online!

"Meals are for bonding, bonuses are for tying interests, combining both is better... I’m paying out of my own pocket, don’t worry." Li Peifeng relaxed and smiled.

"Playing the rich guy!" Wu Wenyue sneered, still displeased.

Li Peifeng thought to himself, if she knew that he and Old Zhao spent five thousand on dinner yesterday, she might go nuts and throw him off the Great Wall.

"My royalties for last month just came in: 358,000 yuan, an occasional splurge is nothing."

"What? Royalties over 300,000 last month? That much?!"

Wu Wenyue was slightly taken aback, showing a happy smile for the first time today, but immediately felt awkward for being so happy for him. It wasn’t her earnings, after all, they were still in a cold war, and besides, last night...

She had to restrain herself!

Wu Wenyue suppressed her surprise, coughed, and said: "Didn’t you once say your monthly royalties were just around fifty or sixty thousand? Even if you signed the Platinum contract, the split only changed from 50-50 to 70-30, a 20% increase. How could the royalties suddenly jump six to seven times?"

Li Peifeng smiled: "When the royalties weren’t calculated yet, I didn’t expect such a big jump either, but later the editor called to explain, and I understood. Because I signed the Platinum contract, the website is heavily promoting me. Both my ongoing serial and completed older books got a major boost in recommendations. Royalties heavily depend on these spots."
