Chapter 443 - 229: The Second Way to Upgrade

In the hotel parking lot.

Gu Pan gazed at the beloved car before her, unable to hide the surprise and emotion in her eyes.

This was a luxury car that cost 3.5 million yuan on the road—enough for a down payment on a place inside the Fifth Ring Road.

The matte graphite gray paint job was incredibly high-class.

Under the light, it looked almost black.

A sexy little spoiler and quad exhaust pipes.

It maxed out all the signature performance features of an AMG.

As the top-of-the-line sports car in the Mercedes-AMG series,

its primary competitor had always been the Panamera.

The GT63S was the ultimate dream car for countless GT fans.

Unfortunately, there were too many other cars to choose from at this price point.

You could say that only the most impulsive rich people would buy a GT63S.

"Go have a look inside."

Qi Sheng handed the car key to Gu Pan and led her by the hand to the car.

"BEEP BEEP~"

As the car unlocked,

the cool black and magma gray interior was a pleasant surprise for Gu Pan.

Although it was a four-seater sports car, the rear space was at least decent.

If it were filled with girls, there would definitely be no problem.

But all men...

’Why would you ever put men in a car like this? It’s made for picking up girls.’

Of course, female owners like Gu Pan were an exception.

Its 4.0T V8 engine boasted a maximum of 639 horsepower.

It could go from 0 to 100 km/h in just 3.2 seconds.

Just step on the gas, and the sheer power would be enough to blow your mind.

Seeing his new toy, Qi Sheng’s interest was piqued, and he took it for a quick spin first.

Only then did he move to the passenger seat to help Gu Pan get used to the car.

Driving a million-yuan-plus sports car, Gu Pan was understandably a little nervous.

She had gotten her driver’s license the year she graduated from high school.

And it had been three years since she’d last been behind the wheel.

"Don’t be nervous. Gently press the accelerator and get used to the car’s acceleration first..."

Qi Sheng’s driving skills were so good he could easily race in F1.

Teaching a complete novice like Gu Pan was, of course, a piece of cake for him.

Soon, Gu Pan got the hang of it.

She drove slowly along the main road at a snail’s pace of less than 40 mph.

Seeing this, who wouldn’t know the driver was a woman?

Some hot-tempered drivers were about to start cursing.

But when they pulled up alongside the female driver of the GT63S

and saw her face, which looked like it came straight out of a painting, they couldn’t bring themselves to say a single harsh word.

Beautiful women just have that kind of privilege.

And a peerless beauty of Gu Pan’s caliber,

was enough to make countless men do anything for her with nothing expected in return.

The drive from Yihe Aman to Embassy No.1 Courtyard should have only taken thirty minutes.

But Gu Pan managed to stretch it into an hour.

At the entrance to the residential complex, Gu Pan was stopped.

"Good evening, Ms. Gu. I’ll help you register your car’s information into the property management system right away."

The security guard jogged over, his smile incredibly enthusiastic upon seeing the beautiful homeowner returning in a million-yuan-plus sports car.

"Thank you."

Gu Pan gave a faint nod and drove the car into the underground garage.

Her two parking spaces were still completely empty.

When Qi Sheng left the Capital City, his G63 would be parked here too.

If she got tired of driving the sports car, she could take the G-Wagen out instead.

’Having a tall, rich, and handsome boyfriend is just this wonderful.’

An ordinary girl’s dream was just her everyday life.

...

They took the elevator directly to the 17th floor.

The brand-new apartment instantly put Gu Pan in a fantastic mood.

The wide floor-to-ceiling windows, the beige sofa, the massive 100-inch television.

It fulfilled every fantasy she had about a home.

Although they had bought plenty of mattresses and bedding sets yesterday, her female bodyguards had handled all of it.

This was her first time back since she’d initially viewed the apartment.

"Don’t move, I’ll change your shoes for you."

Gu Pan stepped forward, squatted down, and took off her man’s shoes.

The slippers were a matching couple’s set that Gu Pan had specially picked out.

One pair was light pink, the other light gray.

Seeing Gu Pan’s fair little hands holding the slippers, ready to serve him, Qi Sheng naturally didn’t refuse.

Although he often doted on his girlfriends,

he still cared a great deal about these little details.

’One’s status in the household must be firmly established.’

After changing Qi Sheng’s shoes, Gu Pan changed her own.

She took Qi Sheng’s hand and happily wandered around the apartment.

Even though she had already seen the place yesterday,

back then, how could Gu Pan have known she would become its mistress?

Seeing Gu Pan so happy, chirping away like a cheerful lark,

it was clear she had done her homework on how to decorate and arrange their home.

That’s right, Gu Pan had suffered from insomnia last night.

Owning the first apartment of her life, and a forty-million-yuan luxury home at that,

Gu Pan had tossed and turned, unable to sleep. In the end, she had just started doing her research.

She had looked up renovation plans from online bloggers, planning how to furnish their new home.

The apartment didn’t actually need any effort put into soft furnishings, though.

The previous owner hadn’t spared any expense—at least two million yuan had been spent.

The sofa, the wardrobes, everything was custom-made from top-tier luxury brands.

As he watched Gu Pan talk, her cherry-like lips occasionally parting and closing,

Qi Sheng lowered his head and wantonly sucked and nibbled on those delicate petals, kissing Gu Pan until she whimpered softly.

"Mmm... You’re awful. I was talking about something serious."

Gu Pan’s current aura was a mix between a young girl’s innocence and a young woman’s charm.

The coquettishness she exuded was unbelievably alluring.

If she put in the effort, any man would fall at her feet.

"What I’m doing is serious business too."

"You had Sister Shiwen and Sister Qianqian with you yesterday. Haven’t you had your fill yet?"

Thinking of how he had "bullied" her this morning, Gu Pan couldn’t help but blush and shoot Qi Sheng a few reproachful glances.

"You know how I am. Besides, you liked it too, didn’t you?"

Qi Sheng was in a great mood, his laughter tinged with a hint of teasing.

"I did not like it! You’re the one who forced me into those positions."

Gu Pan’s face flushed crimson, and she buried her head lower and lower.

"Today is our housewarming night. Shouldn’t we celebrate?"

Qi Sheng’s Adam’s apple bobbed. Seeing Gu Pan’s bashful expression, he coaxed, "How about I treat you to some milk?"

"No way, that’s disgusting."

Gu Pan’s small hands wrapped softly around her boyfriend’s neck as she resisted in a hushed voice.

"Be good. Your Sister Shiwen and Sister Qianqian both do it, so why can’t you?"

Qi Sheng began to gaslight Gu Pan.

’No matter what, I have to let my little brother have a taste of Gu Pan’s mouth.’

"I..."

Gu Pan’s peach-blossom eyes began to well up with moisture, her gaze filled with grievance.

"So, you don’t love me?"

Seeing Gu Pan still hesitating, Qi Sheng deployed the classic line.

"It’s not that I don’t love you, but this..."

Gu Pan’s face was a picture of misery.

"When we left the hotel, you promised you wouldn’t bully me."

"Silly girl, you actually believe the sweet nothings a man whispers to you?"

Qi Sheng began to undress Gu Pan.

"Mmm... I want to take a shower first. I feel so dirty."

Gu Pan had been so nervous while driving that her back was covered in a cold sweat.

Although Qi Sheng probably wouldn’t mind,

her own love for cleanliness wouldn’t allow her to be so untidy.

Watching as Qi Sheng was about to peel her like a little lamb,

Gu Pan panted delicately, pleading pitifully with Qi Sheng.

"Perfect, we’ll shower together. Consider it answering the nation’s call."

Qi Sheng carried Gu Pan and rushed into the bathroom.

The toiletries, towels, and bath towels inside were all brand new.

With Qi Sheng’s enthusiastic "help,"

Gu Pan, for the first time ever, finished her shower in less than half an hour.

After her shower, Gu Pan’s face was rosy and smooth, still dewy with a hint of steam.

She wore a black silk nightgown from Lapella, revealing a large expanse of fair, creamy skin on her chest.

Seeing Qi Sheng sitting steadily on the sofa,

Gu Pan hesitated for a moment before walking over with a shy expression.

On the floor, there was a cushion.

As for its purpose, it was naturally to prevent Gu Pan’s fair knees from bruising.

Gu Pan knelt obediently on the ground, the collar of her nightgown dipping even lower.

Her magnificent assets pressed together, forming a deep and alluring curve.

Qi Sheng only had to lower his head slightly to see everything clearly.

Looking at the familiar yet intimidating thing, Gu Pan reached out with a trembling hand and grasped it.

Recalling how her two "sisters" had been that morning, Gu Pan began to imitate them earnestly.

"Hiss..."

Qi Sheng closed his eyes, savoring the sensation.

Gu Pan’s skill level, of course, couldn’t compare to his two little secretaries.

But this kind of inexperience was just as intoxicating.

She worked at it for who knows how long.

Gu Pan felt her mouth and tongue go numb before she finally noticed something was different.

Before she could look up and ask Qi Sheng,

her small head was suddenly held fast by a pair of large hands.

Then, a helpless Gu Pan was hit by a surprise attack.

"Mmph, cough..."

Gu Pan’s eyes instantly reddened. She scurried to the bathroom and knelt over the toilet, vomiting repeatedly.

The intermittent sounds of flushing and dry heaving continued for more than ten minutes.

Seeing Gu Pan’s miserable state, Qi Sheng’s heart instantly ached for her.

"That was my fault just now. I promise it won’t happen again."

Qi Sheng wrapped his left arm around Gu Pan’s soft, slender waist, while his right hand caressed her beautiful legs, which were as smooth and silky as satin.

"Then pinky promise!"

Only then did Gu Pan feel a bit better.

But she was still half-doubting Qi Sheng’s promise.

"You don’t believe me?"

Qi Sheng murmured playfully in her ear.

His hot breath made Gu Pan reveal a shy and timid expression.

The sight made Qi Sheng’s gaze burn with heat, and he couldn’t resist kissing her delicious, soft cherry lips again.

"Mmm..."

After a few kisses, Gu Pan’s face became even more alluring and delicate.

Her small hands rested softly on her boyfriend’s shoulders as she felt his large hands grow increasingly bold.

Suddenly, Gu Pan felt a tightness on her chest.

The fleshy area was being toyed with unhurriedly by Qi Sheng.

"Don’t..."

Gu Pan’s face was flushed as she gently tugged at the man’s hand.

Even through her nightgown, Qi Sheng’s fondling sent waves of tingling pleasure through her body.

"Ngh..."

Gu Pan suddenly bit her lip, panting shyly. "Don’t... Mmm..."

"Hah!"

The fire in Qi Sheng’s eyes was clearly burning even hotter.

Gu Pan suddenly felt her body being lifted into the air as Qi Sheng picked her up from the sofa.

When they entered the bedroom and she saw the mattress and bedding set she had personally chosen,

Gu Pan inexplicably felt a sense of déjà vu, as if it were her wedding night, and a touch of sweetness filled her heart.

When Qi Sheng gently set her down,

Gu Pan took the initiative, wrapping her arms around Qi Sheng’s neck and offering him a fervent kiss.

"So proactive?"

Qi Sheng was a little surprised, but he wouldn’t refuse Gu Pan’s enthusiasm.

When the familiar sensation came, the tearing pain from last night was gone.

"You are my first man, and you will be my last!"

Gu Pan’s watery peach-blossom eyes were now brimming with deep love.

’A 100-point favorability rating really is different.’

Although Qi Sheng knew that Gu Pan and the others could never leave him,

hearing it from Gu Pan’s own lips still made him feel a little smug.

To be able to win the heart of a peerless beauty like Gu Pan.

Doesn’t that just prove how incredibly charming our Chairman Qi is?

Including Gu Pan, he now had six S-Level girlfriends.

He was only four people short of the ten S-Level girlfriends required for an upgrade.

The system also provided another method.

That was to spend real money to modify the appearance value of his existing girlfriends.

The appearance attribute was tied to the rewards issued by the system.

The cost of modifying a girlfriend’s appearance was ten times that of modifying other attributes.

But thankfully, the modification could be done in stages.

For example, for a girlfriend with an appearance score between 90 and 94,

increasing her appearance by 1 point would cost 200 million.

From 95 to 99, increasing her appearance by 1 point would cost 1 billion.

However, this improvement was not without its limits.

A girlfriend’s grade could only be upgraded once.

For example, Miduo, who was at the "High-Quality Beauty" level, could at most be modified to the 94-point ceiling of the "Top-Tier Beauty" level.

Otherwise, if he kept playing like this,

the system’s money-generating speed wouldn’t be able to keep up with the speed at which Qi Sheng acquired girlfriends.

Even Tang Qian, the "gatekeeper" of appearance scores, could potentially be modified to Qu Man’s level.

Wouldn’t that just be turning the world upside down?
