My System Forces Me to Live off Women-Chapter 254 - 225: The Old Ox and Tender Grass

Rewind to half an hour ago, at the elevator entrance on the fifth floor of the mall.

"Let's go, what's wrong with you?"

Zhao Qingge paused for a moment, then slowly said, "I have a bad feeling."

Wow, hanging out with me gives you a bad feeling? Well, can you still come out with me next time?!

Li Peifeng looked around, pulled Old Zhao to a corner, and started kissing him passionately. The other party resisted, but the force was weak, better than nothing.

"Someone's here..."

Zhao Qingge was tense all over, her eyes kept scanning the surroundings while kissing Li Peifeng, trying to push him away whenever passersby appeared.

Unable to push him away, she simply closed her eyes.

Li kissed for over half a minute before reluctantly letting go: "Do you still have that feeling now?"

Zhao Qingge gritted her teeth, glared at him for a while, and finally gave in, "Let's go!"

Li Peifeng held her hand, enjoying the intensified sandalwood scent, feeling elated: "Let's go, I'll take you to catch some dolls."

Most of the fifth floor of the mall is a game arcade, with basketball machines, dance machines, arcade games, singing machines, shooting, and private KTV booths, everything you could want.

Once inside, it was a world completely different from the mall environment—an array of dazzling lights and colorful game machines.

The speakers inside played upbeat electronic music, with many young people playing at their stations, more than half the seats were taken, and most noticeable were the two dance machines in the center of the arcade.

On stage was a boy and a girl, looking like high school students, dressed in hip-hop street clothes, moving their feet to the beat and their upper bodies following the rhythm, clearly experts in their field.

Zhao Qingge looked around, her expression calm, but her eyes showed a bit of discomfort if you looked closely.

"Fifty tokens."

Li Peifeng took out his phone to exchange for game tokens, then directly took Zhao Qingge to the corner on the west side of the arcade, where there was a row of claw machines.

"Here, give it a try?"

Li Peifeng handed some tokens to Zhao Qingge, Old Zhao silently accepted them, staring at him without speaking.

"Don't know how?"

Li Peifeng knowingly asked, "Can't you speak? I can teach you."

"..."

"As they say; knowing is knowing, not knowing is not knowing, that's true knowledge. And they say; when three people walk together, one must be my teacher, choose the good and follow, and change the bad... If you really don't know, I can teach you! Though you're my teacher, you don't know everything, and there's no shame in asking a student at times like this!"

Zhao Qingge said nothing, put the tokens into the machine, then started to wildly manipulate the joystick, as if venting her frustration.

But after spending five or six tokens, she didn't catch a single doll.

Only then did Li Peifeng step forward, holding Zhao Qingge's hand on the joystick from behind, and laughed, "I'll do it with you."

"No need!" Zhao Qingge shook him off, but when Li Peifeng tried again, she let him.

Just as the two were united in trying to catch dolls, Zhao Qingge's phone rang, it was Sun Yuanyuan when she checked.

"Dinner party tomorrow? Sure, I'm free."

"..."

"He can't make it." Zhao Qingge glanced at Li Peifeng, pursing her lips, "That's all."

After hanging up, Li Peifeng understood, "Besides Su Yumei just now, there's another one?"

Zhao Qingge gave no response, just pointed at the biggest Pikachu in the cabinet: "Catch that one."

"Got it."

Old Zhao didn't want to talk more, and Li Peifeng didn't ask further, continuing to teach her how to catch dolls.

Li's doll-catching skills were top-notch, thanks to familiarity, he caught the two largest ones in the machine with just three tokens, Zhao Qingge didn't want to continue catching, asking, "Why are you so skilled? Who did you catch dolls with last time?"

Li Peifeng just replied that it was due to quick hands and eyes and then changed the subject, taking Old Zhao to play other arcade games, but Zhao Qingge couldn't let go, so Li Peifeng led her into a phone booth-style KTV, one mic each!

They sang cheesy songs like "The Most Beautiful," "Only Love You," "Love is Just a Word"... just sing it out. The KTV was small, and Zhao Qingge felt a bit awkward at first, but as Li Peifeng sang love song after love song, she settled down, even singing an English song alone with his encouragement.

Qingge, Qingge, Professor Zhao's singing skills were certainly up to microphone hog standards, Li Peifeng guessed it was talent. After finishing a song, he couldn't help but pull her into his embrace, touching and feeling her.

"Let's go home."

Zhao Qingge's cheeks were slightly red, and Li Peifeng went along with it; going home? You can still cuddle and touch on the way home!

When they reached the underground parking lot, Li Peifeng had bad intentions and, ignoring Zhao Qingge's resistance, pulled her into the car's back seat, where he also followed suit.

"What are you doing? No! Get out!"

"Just hugging, just hugging."

They embraced messily in the back seat, with disheveled clothes and hair, and Zhao Qingge's cheeks flushed.

Li felt he might just be able to strike while the iron is hot and stay over at Old Zhao's house, feeling satisfied with the date, planning to rate it 99 out of 100, losing a point for surface-level conversation without soul-deep connection!

"Ring, ring, ring~"

If only Sun Yuanyuan hadn't called a second time!!

The car's interior was private, allowing Li Peifeng to hear every word Sun Yuanyuan said over the phone...

"Qingge, did you take on a student named Li Peifeng?"

Just this single sentence made the hearts of the two in the car skip a beat, especially with Sun Yuanyuan's teasing tone!
