OFR – Chapter 327 Dongfang Jing’s visit!

This looked like a marketplace operating outside the laws of any country—but in reality, it revealed a very clear hierarchy.

Beyond the star rating system, Mu Bai had now also learned about this so-called Rising Star Sequence.

“Rising Star” suggested a newcomer on the rise—which also implied that above the Rising Star Sequence, there were definitely higher-level sequences.

And unless one reached a certain level of identity and status, those higher ranks would remain unknown.

Such a strict and clearly defined ranking system—was this truly something a simple marketplace should have?

Absolutely not.

So, this Black Sky Net that appeared to be just a trading platform was clearly only the tip of the iceberg.

Thinking about it for a while, Mu Bai shook his head and collected his thoughts. He also put away the ID card that represented his identity. Then he looked at Li Xiaoqing, still visibly amazed, and said:

“It’s five o’clock, Xiao Qing. Let’s go. I’ll take you to the high-speed rail station.”

“Mm-hmm, okay. Thank you, Mu Hao.”

Pulled from her astonishment by Mu Bai’s gentle reminder, Xiao Qing quickly picked up her suitcase and nodded repeatedly.

After that, they casually chatted for a bit as they walked out of the Xuanwu Zhongshan villa district and headed to the parking lot.

Xiao Qing naturally noticed the Koenigsegg her boss had just purchased, but she only gave it a few compliments to please him.

After all, never mind the Koenigsegg—even a Bugatti Veyron, as far as she was concerned, was already beyond her understanding of wealth.

In her world, luxury cars topped out at around the level of BMW, Mercedes, or Porsche—those in the million-yuan range.

Cars like the Bugatti Veyron (30+ million) or the Koenigsegg (nearing nine digits)—in her eyes, there was no difference. They were all beyond comprehension.

Once the luggage was stowed, Mu Bai started the Koenigsegg and drove off with Li Xiaoqing, leaving Xuanwu Zhongshan behind.

A little after 5 PM.

Normally, this would be peak rush hour, with heavy traffic. But today, the roads were almost empty.

That was because tomorrow was Lunar New Year’s Eve, and most companies in Nanjing had let employees off by midday. At this time, most people were home enjoying family dinners.

So only a dozen or so cars were on the roads.

Soon, with nothing to slow him down, Mu Bai arrived at the high-speed rail station thanks to the Koenigsegg’s speed.

The station was more crowded than usual. Mu Bai brought Xiao Qing into the VIP waiting lounge, gave her a few reminders to stay safe, and prepared to leave.

“Thank you, Mu Hao! I’ll be back after the New Year. I’ll miss you!”

Faced with her clear and sweet voice, Mu Bai merely nodded, then waved his hand and walked out of the lounge.

This scene caught the attention of many in the VIP lounge.

Especially since the girl—Li Xiaoqing, with her goddess-like beauty—had already been the center of many male gazes in the room.

Although no one knew the relationship between her and the boy who had just left, her soft and affectionate tone stirred a sense of envy among them.

“If only a girl like that truly missed me—I’d probably laugh in my dreams!”

That was the shared fantasy of many present.

But in this society, having such a stunning girlfriend was no easy feat.

After all, this was a face-driven, materialistic society.

In such a world, appearance often mattered more than education or talent.

For example, good-looking boys or girls could easily earn a few hundred yuan just by chatting with fans on livestream platforms—without needing a degree or skills.

And in this male-dominated world, beautiful women had become highly sought-after resources.

But just as everyone was immersed in fantasy, the boy who had received such affection didn’t even turn back.

He simply waved briefly and left—decisively, without a hint of hesitation.

That made everyone’s hearts even more complicated.

“If it were me, I’d have run back to hug her and whisper something romantic before leaving!”

That was the fantasy playing in many men’s minds.

As for Mu Bai—now outside the station—he was, of course, unaware of all this.

He simply opened his car door, started the Koenigsegg, and began driving back to the villa.

Half an hour later, around 6 PM, Mu Bai returned to Xuanwu Zhongshan.

He parked the Koenigsegg in his usual villa space—but noticed something unusual:

A limited edition red Porsche was parked in the space next to his, which also belonged to his villa.

He recognized it immediately. He had seen this car a few times—it was the casual car that Dongfang Jing loved to drive.

“Hmm? Dongfang Jing is here?”

Surprised, he stepped out of the Koenigsegg and glanced at the license plate again. Confirming it was indeed hers, he locked the car and quickly walked back to the villa.

Sure enough, the villa lights were on again.

Pushing open the door, he wasn’t surprised to find Dongfang Jing sitting on the sofa waiting for him—alongside a man in a company uniform: the property manager.

When the manager saw Mu Bai, he quickly stood up and apologized repeatedly:

“Sir, I’m terribly sorry. I let Miss Dongfang in without your permission.
But she has a special pass, and our company leadership also approved her access.
I was going to call you for confirmation, but we didn’t have your contact info on file.
I understand this wasn’t handled well. Please feel free to criticize or punish me.”

Hearing the sincere apology, and seeing Dongfang Jing’s stunningly beautiful face softened by a warm smile, Mu Bai simply waved his hand and smiled lightly:

“It’s fine. Just don’t let it happen again. You can go—I need to talk with my guest.”

“Yes, thank you so much for your understanding. If you need anything, just let us know!”

Grateful to be forgiven, the property manager thanked him again and quietly wiped the sweat from his nervous forehead before swiftly exiting the villa.

“Mm, alright.”

After Mu Bai nodded, the manager quickly departed.

Now that no one else was around, Dongfang Jing—sitting gracefully on the sofa—looked at the handsome Mu Bai with her deep, beautiful eyes.

She hesitated briefly before speaking gently:

“Mu Bai, I came to tell you… Xiao Xiao has gone to England to film, and I’m about to leave as well—to prepare Huayi Entertainment Group’s expansion into the international market.”
