"I never imagined that one day I would be able to enjoy the high-end service of a top-tier hotel."
"The value of this spice alone is probably equivalent to an average person's monthly salary, right?"
Wang Ruoxi was soaking in the bathtub, with only her head showing. The surface of the water was covered with bubbles, obscuring the view below.
"No one knows what will happen in this world next."
"Similarly, I never expected that I would give away my virginity here."
Su Jin lay opposite Wang Ruoxi, holding a glass of red wine with a hint of melancholy. She took a small sip and then spoke to Wang Ruoxi.
"Didn't you have a boyfriend?"
"Why is it still the first time?"
After hearing this, Wang Ruoxi secretly glanced at Ye Kai, who was watching the news on TV in the living room, and then asked him in a low voice with some curiosity.
"Who says you have to give up your virginity just because you have a boyfriend?"
"How can a girl give away her most precious possession so easily? Besides, boyfriends in school are just for experiencing what campus romance is like; how many of them actually last?"
Su Jin shook her head, disapproving of Wang Ruoxi's idea.
As a girl who grew up in an ordinary family, she knew very well which path she should take.
Indulging in sexual pleasures too early will not benefit her growth at all, and will even cause her to lose the opportunity to enter a higher social class.
After all, the elders have made it very clear that women are born with an extra chance to cross social classes and change their destiny, provided they can hold onto it.
"Does he have an opportunity?"
Wang Ruoxi's gaze fell on Ye Kai, who was smoking, and she asked quietly.
"He has the ability to help us transcend social classes."
"But why should he force us to transcend social classes?"
Su Jin also turned her head and glanced at Ye Kai behind her, sighing softly.
That's right, Ye Kai is indeed a mysterious and important figure.
This can be confirmed simply by his status as a top member of the Chang'an Club, and his attitude towards money also reveals his considerable wealth.
The only thing that is uncertain is Ye Kai's attitude towards the two of them. Is it just a passing fancy, or does he have deep feelings for them?
If they encounter a heartless playboy, then no matter how rich or powerful he is, it has nothing to do with them.
However, it must be said that this is indeed an opportunity for the two of them to transcend social classes.
Soon, the technician arranged by the hotel arrived, accompanied by the butler.
In addition to the spa treatment, Ye Kai also arranged full-body skin care packages for the two women, which cost him over 60,000 yuan.
"I feel like I've been given a completely new look."
Looking at her skin, which was moist and glowing with a creamy sheen, Wang Ruoxi said in disbelief.
Although she had long known that the wealthy could prolong their youth with money, this understanding was superficial, vague, and unclear. It wasn't until she experienced it herself that Wang Ruoxi realized how vast the gap between social classes truly was.
It's difficult to understand the true meaning of certain things until you reach that point.
"Who can argue with that?"
"As the ancient poem says, 'A lotus emerges from clear water, naturally beautiful without any adornment.'"
"A lotus can naturally emerge from clear water, but to make a person completely refreshed is not something that can be achieved simply by taking a bath. Only those who have experienced it can understand how high the technology involved is."
"I suddenly realized that boyfriends don't seem so appealing anymore."
Su Jin suddenly smiled bitterly and sighed.
At this moment, the smile on her face seemed to carry a hint of tears.
The contradictory expressions that suddenly appeared on the same face gave people an extremely strange feeling, yet they fully reflected the inner struggle of Su Jin at this moment.
"Although I've never had a boyfriend, I still find this kind of enjoyment too easy to get lost in."
"Everyone says that girls are more prone to materialism. I didn't really believe it before, but now—"
Wang Ruoxi didn't finish her sentence, but her meaning was already very clear.
After what happened today, they can never go back to their previous lives; this is probably the price of growing up.
Su Jin suddenly realized that perhaps Ye Kai had known all along, which was why he arranged these methods for them one after another, making them realize their situation and then completely fall into his trap.
If that's the case, then this big boy is terrifying.
This is not the end.
After the two women finished their full skincare routine, they discovered that the housekeeper had already prepared dinner at the restaurant.
"You still need to eat dinner."
"You'll have the energy to work later if you eat your fill."
"Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night; no one is allowed to surrender first."
Ye Kai invited the two women to sit down for dinner and casually made a joke to lighten the mood.
"What you're saying is making us feel pressured."
Su Jin looked at Ye Kai with a hint of resentment and answered in a strained voice.
"So you actually studied vocal music?"
Ye Kai's ears were very sensitive, and he immediately picked up on a clue in Su Jin's voice.
Before this, Su Jin spoke like an ordinary person, without anything special about her. But when she spoke like this, the traces of her training appeared, which stirred something in Ye Kai's heart.
After all, those who know know that in bed, girls who study vocal music may bring a different kind of enjoyment than ordinary people.
"Su Su is a sophomore at the Central Conservatory of Music and has great potential."
"But as you know, if you want to make it big in vocal music, it can cost a lot of money, and in most cases, even if you spend a lot of money, you may not necessarily succeed."
Wang Ruoxi introduced Ye Kai to him from the side.
The two of them are now in cahoots; as long as one of them can win Ye Kai's favor, they won't have to worry too much about having a bad life in the future.
Moreover, the fact that the two of them transformed into the Black and White Duo already indicated a bundled sales strategy.
"What is Xixi's major?"
Ye Kai nodded, then couldn't help but ask Wang Ruoxi another question.
"Do I look like I'm studying anything?"
Wang Ruoxi stretched out her slender ten fingers and showed them to Ye Kai, then playfully asked him a question.
Her ten fingers were long and slender, and although they looked delicate, they were also powerful and agile, making one think that she was someone who did some kind of special profession.
"Does she play the piano?"
When Ye Kai saw these hands clearly, that was his first impression, so he replied with a comment.
"Although I can play the piano, my major is traditional Chinese musical instruments, specifically the pipa."
"If you look closer, you'll notice subtle traces left from playing the pipa on the tips of my fingers."
Wang Ruoxi answered somewhat shyly.
"What a talent!"
"I never imagined that I would encounter both of you, Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong, in such a small club as Chang'an. It truly is fate!"
Ye Kai felt a pang of emotion upon hearing this and couldn't help but laugh.
