"Lu Jiuning, I like you!"

I once wasted my time on things that seemed like I was ready to die.

But after meeting you, I started to think about living to be a hundred years old.

Because I fell in love with you, I started thinking about living to be a hundred!

In his past life, after being sold to an assassin training base, he thought about dying every moment. Now, looking back, he doesn't know what kept him going; he was in a daze.

Perhaps, it's more about the fear of death.

The original owner, disfigured, teetered on the brink of life and death every day.

It can be said that this body and this soul have both suffered and faced death without fear.

However, it was only after meeting Lu Jiuning that Bei Chen felt alive again.

"Whether it's the competence and confidence shown during the first meeting."

It's the cold aura of a bar shrew.

He is a strategist who plans and strategizes effectively.

It is an independent personality that fights for the sake of marriage alliance.

They are indomitable souls who fight for their destiny.

This is the real you, laughing heartily in the amusement park.

You're still the same adorable person you were just now, amidst all the chaos and confusion.

I like them all!

In that instant, Lu Jiuning felt the whole world quiet down, with only Bei Chen's gentle voice echoing softly in her ears.

His eyes were so sincere.

His words were so sincere and passionate.

The joy in her heart surged up like a raging flood, overwhelming her.

Once, she could only watch him fall from afar.

She rushed over as soon as she had the chance.

After that, I lived every day in the secret joy of being in contact with my idol.

She never imagined that one day her idol would confess his feelings to her.

That situation, that feeling, made Lu Jiuning feel like he was living in a TV drama.

"I...I...I..."

Lu Jiuning stammered for a moment.

"How could you do this? You always bully me when I'm not prepared."

"Are you always trying to make a fool of myself?!"

Although he was unconvinced, Lu Jiuning's eyes revealed a hint of joy.

"you……"

Just as Lu Jiuning was about to say something, Bei Chen pulled her closer, placed his right hand on her waist, and lowered his head.

From simple to complex!

His kiss was so passionate, so unrestrained.

The kiss left Lu Jiuning almost breathless.

She closed her eyes, forgot to think, and didn't want to think, and began to respond to the pleasure.

After a long while, Lu Jiuning nestled into Bei Chen's arms.

My feelings for Bei Chen have always been vague, but only now are they gradually becoming clear.

Just like Lu Jiuning's usual personality, she accepted Bei Chen frankly at this moment, without any hesitation, and followed her heart.

Gently pounding his chest with her hand, Lu Jiuning looked up: "Bad guy, you took it without asking!"

Bei Chen gently pinched Lu Jiuning's cheek: "I didn't see you refuse!"

"I...you're so strong, I can't break free."

"Shall we try again?"

"You dare!"

"Hmm..."

At this moment, both of them were immersed in an unparalleled tenderness...

...

"Alright, stop fooling around, let's get down to business!" Lu Jiuning slapped away Bei Chen's groping hand.

"The Godfather's recipe has been revealed?"

Bei Chen didn't move, just held Lu Jiuning in his arms: "Yes, I'll send you the formula later."

With this formula, the factory can now officially start operations.

I believe that raising 1 billion yuan over three years shouldn't be too much of a problem.

Lu Jiuning, sensing Bei Chen's aura, felt incredibly reassured. "Then you'd better hurry up."

Otherwise, three years later, my father will push me towards Bai Fengshan.

Bei Chen had once asked Lu Jiuning about his marriage partner, and now he learned that it was the Bai family, one of the four great families of the Imperial City, who were on par with the Lu family.

As luck would have it, Bai Fengshan was one of the ten candidates for cooperation provided by Lu Jiuning's independent system.

They were a perfect match.

Unfortunately, Lu Jiuning chose Bei Chen.

She herself came from a large family, and there was nothing in it that she liked.

If she marries into the Bai family, it will only be like jumping from one cage into another; there won't be much difference.

Bei Chen stroked Lu Jiuning's cheek: "Don't worry, how could I bear to give you away to someone else?"

"Don't even mention 1 billion in 3 years, I'd risk my life for 10 billion in 3 years!"

"Tch, anyone can talk big!"

By the way, where do you plan to develop Hive Bar next?

"And you?"

"Why don't we say it all at once?"

"Okay, three, two..."

...

"foreign!"

"foreign!"

The two were practically speaking in unison.

Unfortunately, the condition for unlocking the next level of permissions is that you have to access overseas locations.

However, they were both surprised that the other person could be so in sync with them, even though they knew their own situation.

I feel like their understanding is a little too much.

Thinking back on all the little things that happened between them, Bei Chen always felt that something was off.

He quickly sat up straight: "Jiu Ning, tell me honestly, where did 'California Lemonade' come from?"

Lu Jiuning was surprised by Bei Chen's question and was momentarily at a loss for words.

Seeing her stammering, Bei Chen knew that things were not so simple.

There must be a reason why cocktails suddenly appeared in this world!

"Do you have a cheat code, or rather, a system cheat?"

At first, Bei Chen would only test the waters, but after the two confirmed their relationship, many things became easier to discuss.

“You…” Lu Jiuning was shocked, feeling as if his secrets had been dug out and then laid bare to the outside world.
