40: Full of food and water

I have to say, Chen Yongqiu's cooking is truly excellent.

Cao Lang's appetite was whetted just by the aroma. The pork ribs were stewed until they were fragrant, soft, and tender, while the sautéed garlic scapes with meat were crisp and went perfectly with rice. In the end, he wolfed down two large bowls of rice.

"This cooking is amazing. At such a young age, you can actually make food that tastes just like a restaurant's."

"I've loved cooking since I was a child. Back then, I thought that if I had a Boyfriend in the future, I would definitely serve him well, so I consciously learned how to cook."

Chen Yongqiu blinked her large, pure, and innocent eyes, looking at Cao Lang with a gaze full of love.

"It seems you really looked forward to taking care of your future Boyfriend when you were little. You were always learning various small skills, like cooking and dressing up, just to make your future Boyfriend happy."

Cao Lang moved his chair a few inches closer to Chen Yongqiu and dotingly pinched her small cheek.

"Mmm~ I don't know. Don't all you men like this? Being Chen Yongqiu's man definitely comes with the best treatment, hehe."

Chen Yongqiu pouted and responded to Cao Lang's question indistinctly, her small mouth being kneaded into various cute shapes by him.

"Are you full?"

"I'm full, Brother."

"What do we do after being full and satisfied?"

"After eating and drinking, we go—"

Chen Yongqiu shouted with her hands raised, but before she could say those two words, Cao Lang tightly covered her mouth.

A young girl shouldn't use foul language!

Chen Yongqiu gave Cao Lang a coquettish glare, stood up to find a hair tie... "I was wrong, I was wrong. Don't be mad, I'll compensate you, okay?"

Cao Lang didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He really had no way to deal with this little vixen, so he could only transfer some money.

This kind of extreme contrast—a high-and-mighty school beauty who was so beautiful and had such a great body, yet was willing to go to such lengths for a man—was truly rare.

Aside from a reward, Cao Lang couldn't think of any other way to compensate her.

"I don't want a reward. I'll be satisfied if you can just spend more time with me."

Chen Yongqiu, reading the situation, stopped Cao Lang from taking out his phone. Just the single unit at Tomson Riviera was enough to make her go through fire and water for him.

Why would such a small matter, which was part of her duty, even be worth mentioning?

"Alright, I'll spend more time with you in the future."

Cao Lang felt a warmth in his heart. Her ability to provide this kind of emotional value could be said to be a natural talent.

Many women couldn't figure this out; they always wanted to monopolize a resource-rich man, leading them to control this and that.

But a resource-rich man doesn't lack women.

If a woman who coveted resources couldn't provide enough emotional value, then what value did she have left?

A young body? A beautiful face?

In the Magic City, one could find a 'shared girlfriend' for thirty thousand yuan, all of whom were young and beautiful college students.

Being young and beautiful was merely the entry threshold for this industry.

Times had changed, and sexual resources were slowly becoming quantifiable.

Cao Lang felt this deeply.

After the two of them finished washing up and lay in bed, Chen Yongqiu impatiently crawled into the covers, hugging Cao Lang's body like an octopus, her small head rubbing against him vigorously with a face full of satisfaction.

Like a saint, Cao Lang opened the TikTok recommendation page and started scrolling.

"Pay attention, this girl is named Xiao Mei..."

A movie recap video made the two of them giggle. Recaps nowadays were getting more and more interesting; some were in rap format, others in a joke-telling format, making them even more interesting than watching the movie directly.

The next video featured a sexy beauty with a very voluptuous figure, wearing a pair of boy shorts and dancing hotly on the screen.

This was a Streamer Cao Lang had followed for a long time named wang Tangtang. Because she was so sexy, he had even set her as a 'special follow.'

"Such thick legs, not as pretty as you."

Cao Lang rubbed his nose, preparing to swipe away.

"You're lying! Look how pretty this beauty is." Chen Yongqiu looked up with a hint of mischief in her eyes.

"Looking at other beauties in front of you would make me look like such a scumbag."

Cao Lang didn't say anything else and prepared to swipe down.

"Don't, I like looking at beauties too. I want to watch."

Chen Yongqiu's slender index finger clicked on wang Tangtang's homepage and began browsing through the videos one by one.

"I'm so envious of sisters with big frames, curvy in all the right places, and her dancing skills are great too."

At this moment, Chen Yongqiu acted like a fangirl, critiquing the top-tier Yu Jie in front of her with great poise.

"You like looking at beauties too?"

Cao Lang was a bit curious. Normally, shouldn't a woman have a 'rival' mentality when seeing a beauty? It was rare for one to praise the other from the bottom of her heart.

"Of course. Let me show you my TikTok."

Chen Yongqiu opened her TikTok homepage; she was actually an Internet Celebrity with a million followers. Her video page was full of daily life snippets, but the number of likes was enormous.

"So your name is Naipian. It really suits your skin." Cao Lang took Chen Yongqiu's phone and scrolled down through her works.

"I won't film anymore. I'll focus on serving you, Brother."

"TikTok is really powerful; you look so beautiful in these."

Cao Lang randomly clicked on one. The S-curve alone was enough to make one's blood boil, though Cao Lang knew there was a lot of fakery involved.

"Oh, it's normal to use waist-slimming filters and beauty effects when filming. Brother, the other Female Internet Celebrities you watch might not be real either."

"I do know that. For a beauty who looks good in real life like Liu Qingqin, if she did a bit of Edge-pushing content and posted a few more works, five million followers wouldn't be a problem."

Cao Lang was not wrong about this.

After all, a sexy lolita like Liu Qingqin was far too rare.

Most Female Internet Celebrities were thin and only somewhat attractive, without any real substance. They usually bought padding from Taobao to wear, passing off the fake as real. With just a few dances, having hundreds of thousands of followers was no problem.

A natural beauty with fair skin like Chen Yongqiu was also hard to come by in reality; just by filming her daily life, she could have three million followers.

And for someone like Liu Qingqin with an hourglass figure and rule-breaking looks, filming a few videos acting cute or dancing in a Bodycon skirt would easily net her over a million followers.

If the timeline were extended, Liu Qingqin might really have ended up on the path of an Internet Celebrity.

But there were too many people with malicious intentions on the internet, a real mixed bag. With Liu Qingqin's simple personality, she could easily be tricked into counting money for someone else after they sold her.

"Brother, invite Qingqin to the house tomorrow. I'll step out for a bit."

Hearing Cao Lang mention Liu Qingqin, Chen Yongqiu knew he was still thinking about what happened today.

Hearing Chen Yongqiu's words, Cao Lang couldn't help but laugh. Wasn't he exactly one of those people with malicious intentions?

But he was only after her beauty, not her money.
