Chapter 598: Where Did This Stray Cat Come From?!

Today was the day of the Golden Rooster Awards ceremony. Since they'd arrived a day early, Bai Liang and the others didn't need to rush too much.

Even the female stars like classmate Dudu, who needed more time for makeup and styling, could prepare for the ceremony at a leisurely pace.

Of course, that was assuming a certain uninvited guest didn't show up.

The early bird gets the worm!

The evil little kitty classmate is far more than just "evil"—she might be the most action-oriented girl Bai Liang has ever met! No "might" about it, actually.

Back when they first met, Bai Liang was nothing more than her bestie's ex-boyfriend, yet this little kitty already dared to fool her own manager, spin a lie, and head straight to the film set where Bai Liang was shooting just to find him.

At the time, Meng Jie herself hadn't even eaten "regrown grass" a few times yet, and this one was already having a taste.

And now, not a single bit of that trait has shown any sign of regression.

Five in the morning!

At this moment, classmate Dudu was still in the middle of a sweet dream, her brow even slightly furrowed.

Taking on Bai Liang single-handedly and not letting him so much as glance at his phone naturally comes at a cost.

One of the main costs is feeling completely drained.

Bai Liang getting up didn't disturb her sleep in the slightest—her eyelids didn't even twitch.

She just unconsciously licked her slightly dry lips in her sleep.

Noticing this, before heading to the hotel gym, Bai Liang poured her a cup of warm water and set it on the bedside table.

That way, if classmate Dudu woke up midway, she could just reach out and have a drink.

In this regard, Lord Bai has always been quite attentive and thorough—putting in the effort when it's time to put in the effort, being careful when it's time to be careful. Everyone who's "used" him says he's great!

However, just as he's able to do these things well, some girls have likewise given him enough care and attention in return.

Case in point—the moment Bai Liang finished changing and opened the door to head out, he saw a slender figure walking toward him down the hallway.

"Perfect timing! I knew my calculations were spot on!"

The evil little kitty wore a slightly smug little smile on her face, her big eyes curved into crescents—cute, yet with a hint of mischief peeking through.

The moment he laid eyes on her, Bai Liang knew... today's morning workout was probably not going to happen. Mmm... or rather, he wasn't going to be able to slip away.

"What are you doing here?"

"I got here past three in the morning! You foxy man didn't reply to my messages, so I was worried about you!" Li Yitong cupped her cheeks with both hands and started spouting nonsense in an exaggerated tone. "Poor me, squatting outside your door for over an hour. Do you even know what Xiamen looks like at four in the morning?"

Xiamen at four in the morning?

Honestly, at this moment even Bai Liang couldn't tell whether this evil little kitty was making a meme reference or describing actual reality.

Because if she could show up at his door at five o'clock—and even put on makeup for the occasion—then she most likely really did get up at four.

But the part about squatting outside his door for over an hour was pure nonsense. The evil little kitty would never do something like that—she knows Bai Liang's biological clock too well, so timing it perfectly was a breeze.

"Hey? Aren't you going to explain why you didn't reply to my messages yesterday? You foxy man!"

Li Yitong stood in front of Bai Liang with her hands behind her back, head tilted up, standing on tiptoe, paired with that sweet smile and those unfairly charming crescent eyes—a perfect picture of a college-age girl acting coquettishly.

Bai Liang tilted his head, sizing her up, and said with a touch of emotion: "Are you really thirty?"

"I really like what that sentence implies! But you're not allowed to bring that up ever again. Also, I'm twenty-nine!"

That's right!

Watching Li Yitong unconsciously grinding her teeth, Bai Liang felt this was the evil little kitty's true form.

"Wanna come to the gym with me?"

Capybara is extending a workout invitation to you!

However, the evil little kitty rejected it without the slightest hesitation, and even hooked up her foot to show off her red-soled heels.

"Don't be ridiculous, okay? I came here wearing high heels, and you want to drag me to the gym?"

Red-soled stiletto "attack-speed shoes," a fitted leather mini skirt, an off-the-shoulder chiffon top, and letter-patterned stockings—nothing about the evil little kitty's outfit belonged anywhere near a gym.

Likewise, she wasn't here to keep Bai Liang company for a workout.

Getting up at four in the morning to come work out with him? Li Yitong figured she'd have to be senile to come down with such a crazy idea.

At this point she suddenly glanced left and right, putting on a cautious look, as if worried someone might suddenly pop out from around them.

But it also seemed like she was looking for someone.

Bai Liang didn't dwell on it, because right now he was thinking.

Clearly, the evil little kitty was planning to get him to switch up his morning workout routine—otherwise she wouldn't have geared up so thoroughly.

If it were a different time or a different place, Bai Liang naturally wouldn't refuse such a "challenge."

But the problem was, Chen Duling was still sleeping in his room—yet by now the evil little kitty's long, pretty fingers had already slipped inside his clothes and started tracing little circles~

Her crescent eyes were gone, replaced by wide-open eyes that no longer scanned the surroundings but stared straight at Bai Liang, as if something was brewing in her gaze, making the air feel damp.

Before stepping inside, Li Yitong did take one last glance outward, and did a little mental shrug:

Meng Jie, oh Meng Jie, it's not that I'm not looking out for your little sister—I gave her the chance and she just couldn't take it!

With this kind of execution ability... how can you be losing a man by oversleeping or showing up late?

To put it bluntly, she can't even get there in time to eat shit while it's still warm!

She's absolutely an unpromising Ah Dou! Totally can't compare to her family's Xiao Tian~

If it were Xiao Tian, she might actually have squatted here at four in the morning.

Even among little sisters, there are gaps!

Of course, for Li Yitong this wasn't exactly a bad thing. After stepping into Bai Liang's room, she glanced at the ajar master bedroom door, a mysterious smile spreading across her face.

"Foxy man~~ the living room in this suite of yours is really nice, huh!"

At this moment, Zhou Ye, who groggily silenced her fourth alarm in her sleep, rolled over on the big bed in Chen Duling's room, sleeping sound as can be.

After looping through it several times, there she was hugging Xiao Bei's arm while her other hand rested on her hip, laughing out loud!

A complete supporting-character counterattack!

This dream is absolutely amazing!

At this moment, Chen Duling was still frowning—she was dreaming too.
