The knocking interrupted Su Yang's thoughts. He snapped back to reality, quickly adjusted his appearance, and headed for the door. "Coming, coming."
Click—
The door opened.
As soon as it opened, a faint fragrance wafted into Su Yang's nostrils.
He took a closer look and saw a woman standing at the door. She was around twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, with fair skin and a sexy figure.
She had a delicate face, big eyes, exquisite features, and deep red lipstick. Her long, wavy hair cascaded down her back. She wore a black, sexy, low-cut long dress, revealing a lot of fair skin at her chest, which was very eye-catching.
"Ah!! Pervert!"
The beauty was about to greet him when she saw Su Yang was shirtless. She suddenly shrieked.
Su Yang realized he wasn't wearing any clothes.
He scratched his head and laughed, "Sorry, Sister Zhao, I was just working out and forgot to put clothes on."
The beautiful woman called Sister Zhao was Su Yang's landlord, named Zhao Mengrou.
Zhao Mengrou covered her eyes with her hands, peeking through a small gap, and chided gently, "Then hurry up and put some clothes on!"
"Oh, okay, right away."
Su Yang turned and went into the room, quickly putting on his T-shirt.
Zhao Mengrou, her face flushed, lowered her hands. She looked at Su Yang again, and her face immediately showed a surprised expression: "You... did you get plastic surgery?"
"Huh?" Su Yang was stunned.
Thinking about the changes to his body, Su Yang laughed, "No, why would a big guy like me get plastic surgery? Haven't I always looked like this?"
"That's impossible! When I saw you last month, you didn't look like this!"
Su Yang grinned, "Hehe, you were too busy before to really take a good look at me. Actually, I've always been pretty handsome."
Zhao Mengrou rolled her eyes, her face still slightly flushed, and said with a laugh, "Self-absorbed! And your physique... When did you get so good?"
Su Yang chuckled inwardly at this.
Don't think I didn't see you peeking with one eye covered just now.
However, he remained calm on the surface, replying, "You flatter me, Zhao-jie. I've been working out lately. A man has to be tough, right? By the way, why did you come here specifically today?"
"Oh, right, I came to talk to you about something."
"Come on in," Su Yang said, gesturing for Zhao Mengrou to enter the house.
After pouring Zhao Mengrou a glass of water, they sat down on the sofa.
Zhao Mengrou's gaze immediately fell upon the Porsche car keys on the table in front of her.
She looked at Su Yang with a hint of confusion. "Are these your car keys?"
"Oh, yeah, the car I bought earlier. It just arrived today. What's up?"
Zhao Mengrou pondered for a couple of seconds before speaking. "You can afford a Porsche, so why are you still renting from me? Could it be you're a hidden second-generation rich kid slumming it?"
Su Yang's eyes darted around as he fabricated an answer. "Nah, I'm not some rich kid. I had some special circumstances before, it's not something I can explain in a few words. I'll tell you about it if the opportunity arises later."
"But your timing is perfect. I was just about to message you to say I'm planning to move out after these last few days of the lease are up."
"You're not renting anymore?" Zhao Mengrou asked.
"Yep, I'm pretty settled in Lincheng now. I'm going to start looking at houses in the next few days."
"Did you hit the jackpot overnight? Buying a car and now a house?" Zhao Mengrou asked, a little surprised.
"Nah, I made a little money from a business deal before. Just want to improve my quality of life a bit," Su Yang said with a chuckle, making something up.
"Alright," Zhao Mengrou said, though she didn't believe him at all.
After all, she was almost thirty and came from a well-off family. She had three or four properties in Haicheng that she rented out.
Besides the current, older apartment, the others were nice, modern apartments and high-rise units in good locations.
While they weren't mansions, she could still collect over twenty thousand a month just from rent. She lived a very comfortable, middle-class lifestyle.
Su Yang had seen plenty of wealthy people, but someone like him, driving a Porsche and living in her small one-bedroom apartment, was a first.
"What's up, Sister Zhao? Why are you here?"
Su Yang's eyes were fixed on Zhao Mengrou.
After gaining the Body Management Master skill, Su Yang's eyes possessed a unique charm. Seeing him made Zhao Mengrou blush and her heart race, momentarily forgetting why she had come.
"Well, right, I came to talk about the rent, but since you're not planning to rent anymore, never mind."
After a second of eye contact with Su Yang, Zhao Mengrou's gaze drifted away as she lowered her head and brushed the bangs on her chest.
Su Yang smiled. He suddenly remembered something, "Right, how could I forget the scanning function."
——System, scan Zhao Mengrou.
Ding, scanning target detected.
Scanning...
Zhao Mengrou, Age: 28 years old.
Height: 165cm.
Weight: 53kg.
Appearance: 86. Body: 88.
Number of Relationships: 2, currently single.
Zhao Mengrou has met the System's evaluation criteria. The host can choose whether to bind a Favorability relationship with this person.
The System spoke, and a virtual screen that only Su Yang could see appeared before his eyes.
It clearly displayed Zhao Mengrou's basic information.
——Binding
Su Yang replied without hesitation in his mind.
Zhao Mengrou's looks and figure were both top-notch. Why wouldn't he seize such a good opportunity and bind?
If he had to wait for those exceptional beauties with a rating above 90 before binding, how long would he have to wait?
Besides, there weren't so many perfect beauties in real life.
If he had to find a flaw in Zhao Mengrou, it would be that she was a few years older than him.
Su Yang didn't care about the age difference at all. Forget just four years; he'd be fine with ten years older if she was attractive. He wasn't looking to develop any romantic feelings for Zhao Mengrou; he was purely attracted to her body.
Besides, there's a saying: "Youth doesn't appreciate the older sister's virtues, mistaking the younger sister for a treasure."
Older women are still pretty good in many ways, with a wealth of experience.
[Ding! Binding successful]
[Zhao Mengrou's Favorability towards Host: 16 (Acquaintance)]
The System's voice abruptly stopped.
The two of them didn't know what else to say for a moment, and the air suddenly grew quiet.
Zhao Mengrou still lowered her head, deliberately playing with her hair.
The living room wasn't large because of the house's size, and the sofa was also quite small.
The two of them were only fifty or sixty centimeters apart, and the scent of Zhao Mengrou's perfume lingered around Su Yang.
The atmosphere became somewhat subtle.
Su Yang squinted slightly, and his gaze inadvertently drifted to Zhao Mengrou's chest, where a deep cleavage was faintly visible.
He swallowed, and his heart began to stir uncontrollably.
Any normal man would take a second look in this situation, not to mention that the person in front of him was a beautiful woman.
However, Su Yang wasn't the perverted type. He could still control his actions with reason.
He shook his head to keep himself clear-headed.
If he lost control right now, he'd end up in jail.

He didn't need to ruin his promising future for a moment of pleasure. This kind of thing needed mutual consent. He'd wait until the Favorability went up.
To break the awkward atmosphere, Su Yang quickly said, "By the way, Zhao Mengrou, do you have any friends who sell houses?"
"Huh?" Zhao Mengrou was taken aback and looked up at Su Yang, her face flushing again.
"What did you say?"
"I asked if you have any friends who sell houses? You know a lot of people, so I'm asking you."
"Oh, that. You know, I actually do have one." Zhao Mengrou exhaled softly.
"As expected of you, Zhao Mengrou, knowing lots of people is great. Although I used to work in that field, I didn't really interact with the clients. I'm planning to go look at some houses in the next couple of days. If you have time, could you ask your friend for me?"
"It's no problem to ask, but are you sure you want me to help? The houses my friend sells aren't cheap."
Su Yang thought for a moment and asked, "Which project?"
Zhao Mengrou picked up the water on the table and took a sip, smiling faintly, "Senhai Manor."
"Sen...Senhai Manor? Wow, isn't that one of my favorite developments? It is a bit expensive, though."
Su Yang was familiar with all the developments in Haicheng because he used to do real estate design, but he basically didn't interact with the clients much because he worked overtime every day.
Senhai Manor wasn't the top development in Haicheng, but it wasn't bad either, and it was out of reach for ordinary people.
This project mainly sold high-rise apartments and large flats. The average price for high-rise apartments was 21,000 yuan per square meter, while the large flats ranged from 20,000 to 45,000 yuan.
This wasn't cheap in Haicheng, a new first-tier city. If you bought a large flat of four or five hundred square meters, it would easily cost tens of millions.
Although Su Yang couldn't afford that much right now, he could manage to buy a smaller place, maybe two or three hundred square meters.
Senhai Manor had both a great environment and location. The project was right next to the Tianxing River, which ran through Haicheng, making it a prime riverside property in the city center.
Plus, the surrounding amenities were complete, with subways, shopping malls, supermarkets, schools, and everything else you could need, making it very convenient.
Su Yang used to dream of buying a place there someday, but back then, it was just a dream.
But now he had the System, and what was the System's main goal?
To let him enjoy life. So, he should buy what he liked. Forget Haicheng, it was only a matter of time before he could buy property in those top-tier cities too.
After some thought, Su Yang looked at Zhao Mengrou. "I'm looking at Senhai Manor. Could you help me ask about it when you have time, Zhao-jie?"
Zhao Mengrou looked at Su Yang, her expression a mix of surprise, astonishment, and a hint of shyness that was hard to detect.
"You're actually planning to buy Senhai Manor? The houses there are all several million, with the most expensive ones reaching one or two thousand."
Su Yang smiled confidently, "I know. Let's go take a look first. If there's a suitable unit, I'll buy it."
