My System Forces Me to Live off Women-Chapter 217 - 197: Comet Impact

Li Peifeng: "A warm welcome to the landlord for visiting and guiding."

After sending this message, he sat on the sofa deep in thought.

Xu Manning coming to his home to see the new tenant, is that normal? Yes, it is.

But why did she tell Wu Wenyue that she would work overtime and be home late today?

That's quite intriguing.

Thinking deeply, it's quite terrifying!

On the other hand, Wu Wenyue thought Xu Manning would be working overtime, so she figured she'd finish the meeting in a few minutes and come to help him move.

When the two meet, there's bound to be waves of misunderstanding.

Should I let Brother Yue know and tell her not to come?

I could, but it's unnecessary!

"Rarely do the Grand General and Prime Minister show such care and concern for me. How could I coldly refuse and waste their kindness? Come one, come all."

Li Peifeng clapped and laughed, his smile quite mischievous.

Indeed, he wants to see the drama unfold.

"Will this situation count as a gladiator arena for them?"

"Oh, I just love watching it!"

For the first time, Li Peifeng realized that a gladiator arena is such an interesting scene.

But with one condition: the protagonist should never be him!!!

"Finish tidying up!"

Li Peifeng returned to the bedroom, happily choosing earrings and glasses as accessories, wearing all five pieces, activating the "Brand Ambassador" aura.

He wants to look sharp, with high spirits and impressive looks.

Sitting in the audience, watching the show!

...

"Click~"

At ten past seven, Li Peifeng heard the sound of the security door being unlocked by someone outside the bedroom, so he went to greet them.

"Bang~" Xu Manning stepped inside.

Wu Wenyue was probably on her way too.

Li Peifeng pretended to be surprised: "Manning, you have a spare key?"

"Of course, even if rented to you, it's still my house."

Xu Manning snorted: "If you don't want me coming in, you can pay to change the lock, I won't stop you."

"Don't react so strongly, I was just asking casually. Before, I thought you didn't have a spare key, and was planning to buy one from the property management, but now it seems unnecessary."

Li Peifeng chuckled and helped turn on the living room lights. Under the bright lights, he suddenly exclaimed: "Manning, your house lights are so bright!"

"Really?"

Xu Manning curiously remarked: "But this living room is designed without a main light, only light strips. Most people find it quite dim."

Li Peifeng glanced at Xu Manning, smiled, and said, "Sorry, I see now, it's not the lights that are bright, it's that you're stunning."

Xu Manning couldn't suppress her smile, although she tried to hold it back: "Crazy!"

Today, she wore a cinched pink British-style small blazer, strong yet sweet. Her rounded white shirt collar was adorned with a black and white checkered tie, a pink knee-length skirt matching the blazer, with her bare legs under the hem wrapped in flesh-colored stockings...

"Stunning indeed, but isn't it cold?"

Li Peifeng laughed: "I recall you wearing a down jacket at the start of the month, are you dressing in reverse seasons?!"

"I'm in the office, it's okay."

Xu Manning looked around, strolled around the room: "Did you do a major cleanup?"

"No, just mopped the floor and wiped the furniture."

"Staying in the master bedroom?"

"Yes."

Xu Manning glanced at the master bedroom door, nodded: "Quite good, but you haven't moved all your books here, have you?"

"Knowledge is all in the head, not moving them."

Li Peifeng's answer was generic, Xu Manning understood and chuckled: "Suit yourself, just don't mess up my place."

"I won't, don't worry." Li Peifeng glanced at the fixed telephone on the entrance wall, unaffected in action, pulling Xu Manning's hand into the bedroom...

"Let go!" Xu Manning immediately withdrew her hand, wary: "I'm just here to check the house, what are you up to?"

"Nothing much, oh right, have you had dinner? If you're hungry, I can make some noodles for you."

"No, I just ate!"

Xu Manning rolled her eyes: "You focus on your writing, I'll leave soon."

Though she said so, she didn't move!

What is it? Actually waiting for me to make noodles?

Li Peifeng found it amusing and went along with her hesitance: "Don't go, stay a while longer, I was about to ask you about True Self fashion."

"Oh." Xu Manning, not being reserved, sat on the big bed: "Go ahead and ask."

"Are the clothes produced yet?"

"A few samples are out, but they need some tweaks. Here are the pictures, take a look."

Xu Manning took out her phone, tapped and handed it over.

Li Peifeng took it and looked, discovering winter wear like long trousers, wool coats, mid-length padded coats.

All in dark shades, with neutral, minimalist designs full of texture, familiar yet faultless...

Seeing they matched his expectations, Li Peifeng was satisfied.

"Not bad, not bad, I feel these would look great on me, but they're quite niche, regular body types may not pull it off, limited target audience."

"Right, so next step, I plan to make them more mainstream in design."

Seeing Li Peifeng's genuine praise, Xu Manning smiled happily: "In about a week, worst case two weeks, you can try on the samples for photo shoots. After the shoot, put the pics online, start production, just in time for winter season change. By then Yueyue's follower count should break a million, I've made arrangements with her, the first ad must be mine, using her followers to drive traffic to my store!"

"Sounds good, definitely."
