C3 I'll Cover Your Expenses Today!

The promise of a full refund was especially enticing!

Yang Yu's slightly sleazy expression instinctively made Liang Xiaoyan retreat a couple of steps.

"Liang Xiaoyan's favorability -10, current favorability -30."

"Sorry, beautiful, did I startle you? To make it up to you, I'll cover all your expenses in the mall today!" Yang Yu quickly altered his expression, plastering on a grin meant to charm.

"Liang Xiaoyan's favorability -10, current favorability -40."

Yang Yu was taken aback. Why had her favorability dropped another 10 points?

Just then, Liang Xiaoyan, with a look of disdain, said, "Get lost, stop being a nuisance. And you think you can cover my expenses?"

"How about this, beautiful? Show me your payment code, and I'll send you some money as an apology. Plus, I'll take care of all your expenses today," Yang Yu said hastily, already pulling out his phone.

Liang Xiaoyan eyed the boy before her with skepticism.

She knew of him; in fact, Yang Yu was quite the celebrity at the University of Priphia. He was known for his daily ritual of waiting at the girls' dormitory to deliver breakfast and for sitting behind Zhou Qianni in public classes, fanning her, passing her snacks, and offering warm greetings...

It took a special kind of 'loyal dog' to do all that, earning him the nickname 'top dog' behind his back.

The irony was, everyone knew Yang Yu wasn't wealthy. All his money came from part-time jobs after class. Rumor had it he once scrimped on food for a month, surviving on just steamed buns, to save over two thousand yuan for a gold bracelet for Zhou Qianni.

And now this guy had money?

Seeing Liang Xiaoyan's hesitation, Yang Yu added quickly, "Don't worry, I won't ask to add you on WeChat. Just a simple payment code, no time wasted, right?"

Liang Xiaoyan nodded, seeing the logic in his words. She pulled up her payment code and showed it to Yang Yu.

He scanned the code and completed the payment with efficiency.

"Alipay notification: 100,000 yuan received..."

Liang Xiaoyan's jaw dropped as she saw the alert on her phone. He had just transferred 100,000 yuan directly?

"Additionally, I'm a man of my word. Today, I'll take care of all your expenses here at the mall. I just hope you can forgive my earlier brashness." Yang Yu said with a slight smile, pleased with the woman's astonished reaction – exactly what he was aiming for.

"Liang Xiaoyan's favorability +20, current favorability -20."

Just 100,000 yuan and she's already 20 points more favorable? That won't do. How can she have so little self-control? I should hold back a bit; that way, I'll have more to spend!

"Fine, I'll forgive you for the time being," Liang Xiaoyan conceded with a nod. Though clueless about the source of his wealth, in this day and age, who wouldn't appreciate their own walking ATM? She inquired, "So you're saying you're covering all expenses at the mall today?"

"Yes, I keep my promises," Yang Yu replied with ease. Armed with his black card, his confidence was unshakable. He understood Liang Xiaoyan's mindset all too well – probably similar to Zhou Qianni, a gold digger who's sweet as honey when the cash flows, but wouldn't hesitate to give the boot once the well runs dry.

"Great, follow me," Liang Xiaoyan said, making a beeline for the luxury store.

Yang Yu had made his offer, and she wasn't about to go easy on him.
