Chapter 58

However, as he lowered his head, his mind seemed to malfunction, automatically conjuring up the face of a woman - long hair, small face, large eyes, ruby red lips, wearing shiny black leather shoes. Everything about her exuded an expensive aura. There was no need to say who he was thinking of.

He found it amusing that the sister who sold lunchboxes had sent him so much meat, yet he hadn\'t given her a single thought.

Cheng Shuheng\'s new job was as a server at a bar. Aside from the occasional difficult customer and the poor reputation, the compensation was passable.

Right on cue for the plot point, Jiang Yan arrived to ensnare the protagonist.

In the original story, the male lead visited the bar to indulge himself, and was instantly captivated by Cheng Shuheng\'s scholarly and handsome appearance in the black and white uniform, immediately handing him her business card.

However, Cheng Shuheng had an inherent pride and considered this an insult, rejecting the offer with a displeased expression.

Afterward, the male lead tried to offer the card twice more, but it wasn\'t until Cheng\'s Mother\'s illness worsened and she urgently needed surgery that Cheng Shuheng was forced to accept.

So, to put it simply, this was originally just a wasted trip.

Jiang Yan lazily lounged on the sofa, intently watching the stage performance, waiting for the male lead to appear and go through the motions.

As Cheng Shuheng returned from serving drinks, he found two pink banknotes scented with perfume on his tray, a small tip from a customer in a good mood.

He was about to head back to the staff area when his gaze was drawn to a particular individual. She wore a thin red dress that exposed her snowy white skin, with long curled hair cascading down her back like dense seaweed. Her eyes were focused intently on the stage, yet her attire spoke of indulgence, the opposite of her gaze.

He finally got a close look at her stunning features - beautiful, sharp, and full of an aggressive allure, an untouchable beauty. Just like the person herself, lofty and forbidden.

Yet in the next moment, that person unexpectedly turned her gaze towards him.

Jiang Yan felt someone watching her, and when she turned her head, she was surprised to find it was Cheng Shuheng.

"What, could he tell that I was going to slip him my card tonight?" Jiang Yan rare complained to the system, feeling a bit awkward doing this for the first time.

Cheng Shuheng noticed the person\'s gaze seemed to pause for a moment, before she actually reached out and gently beckoned him over with a curl of her finger.

The hand she revealed glowed under the lights, her red polished fingertips scattering tiny glimmers of light, appearing utterly regal.

Cheng Shuheng obediently walked over, striving to treat her like any other customer as he inquired, "Madam, how may I assist you?"

Why did he feel a sense of breathlessness when his buttons were properly fastened?

...

As he approached, Jiang Yan realized that he was actually quite good-looking, with a broad forehead, deep eyes, a high bridged nose, and sleek, sharp features. Coupled with his well-built physique accentuated by the uniform, it was no wonder the male lead had fallen for him.

Cheng Shuheng felt like Jiang Yan\'s gaze was about to scorch him. He dryly moistened his lips and forced out a soft, hoarse voice, "Is there a problem, madam?"

Cheng Shuheng\'s slender hands were clasped together as he stood before her, leaning forward to look down at her seated form.

Jiang Yan came to her senses, cleared her throat, and let her suggestive gaze linger on his face for a moment before saying, "I find you very much to my liking."

Not sure if it was out of politeness, but the other party hesitated before responding with, "It is my honor."

Jiang Yan continued her harassment, her tone slow and sultry, "Big sister really likes you."

Cheng Shuheng stared unblinkingly at her red lips.

Jiang Yan took out her business card from her purse, her eyes fixed on him as her hand slowly moved to place the card in Cheng Shuheng\'s hand, gently pressing his fingers closed around it.

She exhaled lightly, "Come with big sister."

Cheng Shuheng showed no reaction.

Jiang Yan had prepared herself for rejection, but Cheng Shuheng remained motionless.

Jiang Yan asked the system in confusion, "Did I scare him into silence?"

The anthropomorphized system clicked its tongue in amusement, attempting to mimic Cheng Shuheng\'s mindset, "A prestigious college graduate, being handed a card by a rich cougar. He\'s probably worried about offending you and losing this job."

Fearing the young man was too shy to reject her, Jiang Yan considerately said, "My number\'s on there. Call me when you\'ve made up your mind." She then prepared to stand and leave.

However, just as she was about to get up, Cheng Shuheng\'s deep, magnetic voice came without hesitation, "No need, I accept right now."

Jiang Yan: ...

"Did I hear that right?" she asked the system.

The system evaded the question, "I told you the characters in this task world are beyond your control."

Could it be that his mother\'s condition was severe?

Originally expecting to have to make multiple overtures, this temporary follower of the Buddha, Jiang Yan, was utterly unprepared and could only take the man back to her villa.

Jiang Yan had been drinking, and since Cheng Shuheng didn\'t have a driver\'s license, she called for a designated driver.

On the way back, Cheng Shuheng had already become quite adept at supporting Jiang Yan, even voluntarily acting as a pillow for her in the car.

This wasn\'t right at all. Cheng Shuheng should have only agreed out of desperation, so why was he being so proactive?

Jiang Yan\'s gaze was complex as Cheng Shuheng spoke softly, "Miss Jiang, my mother is ill..."

Oh, so he was indeed forced to submit for his mother\'s sake.

Jiang Yan felt relieved and shamelessly took advantage of her benefactor status, resting her chin on his shoulder, "I\'ll help you then."

Cheng Shuheng silently exhaled in relief.

The car gently rocked as Jiang Yan slowly fell asleep leaning against Cheng Shuheng.

Cheng Shuheng\'s expression was alert as he gazed at her sleeping face, but his mind kept replaying her words, "Come with big sister."

What was it that he wanted to say back then?

Oh yes, "I\'ve been waiting for you for so long."

Finally, a rich cougar had taken a liking to him, and he wouldn\'t have to struggle for the rest of his life.

Cheng Shuheng\'s lips curved upwards, radiating happiness from the inside out.

The still-conscious system was utterly perplexed.
