?
The cheers from the surrounding tourists were so enthusiastic that for a mont, Lin Shen didn’t register what had just happened.
He turned his head and t Gu Wanqing’s beautiful, lively eyes, which were blinking rapidly.
She tilted her head, her expression a little puzzled.
"What’s wrong, Brother-in-law?"
"It’s nothing."
Lin Shen subconsciously touched his cheek, feeling utterly baffled.
’Was it a bug or a drop of rain?’
’No, that’s not right!’
’It felt just like a pair of lips... but it couldn’t have been Qingqing who kissed , right?’
Although Lin Shen was suspicious, he ultimately didn’t bring it up with Gu Wanqing.
So things are just awkward when said aloud. Leaving them unsaid might allow for a more delicate emotion to brew.
After the fireworks show ended, Lin Shen looked at Gu Wanqing beside him.
"The fireworks are over. Ready to go?"
"Okay."
Unlike Lin Shen’s calm deanor, Gu Wanqing’s heart was currently hamring as if it had reached its peak frequency.
The THUMP-THUMP sound vibrated against her eardrums, making her incredibly nervous.
Fortunately, though, everything seed normal.
’He didn’t notice!’
While Gu Wanqing breathed a sigh of relief, she also felt an inexplicable sense of disappointnt.
She didn’t know why she had done sothing so bold just now; it was as if she’d been possessed.
’Have I fallen for my brother-in-law?’
Gu Wanqing cupped her burning cheeks, a wave of sha washing over her. She imdiately shook her head wildly, trying to drive all the unwelco thoughts from her mind.
’Be composed!’
’Be calm!’
’Don’t overthink it!’
"Was Disneyland fun?"
"It was fun!"
After leaving Disneyland, Lin Shen hailed a private car to go ho so he could rest on the way.
But Gu Wanqing was clearly not one to sit idle.
She started carefully selecting the best photos, planning to make a nine-square grid for her WeChat Monts.
Of course, she blocked her own sister from seeing it.
Because the center picture was a photo of her and Lin Shen in front of the castle.
[Day 3 in Modu! Checked in at Disneyland! (#^.^#)]
[Nine-square photo grid.jpg]
Comnts:
[Tang Ning: Who’s the guy? So handso!]
[Zhou Huan: Who’s the guy?]
[Li Yue: Who’s the guy?]
...
「10:15 PM, in the master bedroom.」
Lin Shen had gone to take a shower, while Gu Wanqing was lying on her stomach on the bed, playing on her phone.
When she saw the uniform flood of questions in her Monts’ comnts, she felt a deep sense of resentnt.
’Why is everyone asking who my brother-in-law is and not where I went to have fun!’
[Li Yue: Qing, you went to Disneyland?]
[Li Yue: Ah, Disneyland. The whole world rushes us to grow up, but only Disneyland protects our childhood.]
Gu Wanqing was happy at first to receive a private ssage, but after seeing the sender’s na, her desire to share her joy instantly vanished.
Li Yue was her classmate from her senior year of high school and one of her many pursuers.
He had asked her out right after the college entrance exams and confessed his feelings in public, but she had rejected him outright.
However, the guy just wouldn’t give up. Ever since then, he would find any excuse to chat with Gu Wanqing.
Of course, just chatting would have been fine.
The key issue was his bizarre way of talking.
He was either lanting various life philosophies or quoting seemingly profound sayings and aphorisms.
People had given him a nickna: King B Li.
Gu Wanqing really disliked talking to people like him, but her well-behaved and considerate nature made her too embarrassed to refuse him directly, so she could only give him perfunctory replies like "uh-huh" and "oh."
[Li Yue: So, Qing, is that uncle in your Monts my rival?]
’Uncle?’
The usually mild-tempered Gu Wanqing flared up in an instant. She sat up in bed and, gritting her teeth, typed out a sharp retort.
[Gu Wanqing: He’s only 25, can’t you tell? He’s the one who took to Disneyland!]
[Gu Wanqing: Also, I have a boyfriend now. Don’t ssage anymore. I don’t want him to get the wrong idea.]
Without giving Li Yue a chance to explain, Gu Wanqing directly deleted him as a WeChat contact, flopped onto her back on the bed, and couldn’t help but let out a long sigh.
WHOOSH—!
’So this is how good it feels to reject soone!’
In the past, Gu Wanqing had always compromised her own feelings to accommodate others. If this hadn’t involved Lin Shen, she wouldn’t have had the courage to be so decisive.
"KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK—!"
The sudden knocking on the door interrupted Gu Wanqing’s wandering thoughts.
"Brother-in-law! The door’s unlocked."
"I’m done with my shower."
Lin Shen pushed the door open and ca in, towel-drying his damp hair.
"You can go wash up."
"Okay!"
Gu Wanqing rolled off the bed. As she passed Lin Shen, she secretly reached out and touched his stomach through his T-shirt. Her eyes imdiately lit up.
’He has abs!’
?
Startled at being taken advantage of, Lin Shen watched as Gu Wanqing skipped excitedly into the bathroom.
’This girl.’
Lin Shen shook his head helplessly and returned to his own bedroom.
He lay on the bed, opened his phone, and first checked his task progress on [GoGo Maps].
[Upgrade Mission: Check in at Modu’s famous amusent park—Disneyland (Completed).]
[Reward: GoGo Maps Lv. 5 → Lv. 6]
[Industrial fund accumulated per Red Point passed increased from 30,000 → 35,000. Current total: 550,000]
[Reward Item: Random Scratch-Off x1]
[Upgrade Mission: Check in at Modu’s famous tourist attraction—the Bund]
’What will I get this ti?’
Filled with anticipation, Lin Shen swiped his finger across the screen.
[Thank you for playing! Spirit cap 1!]
[Constitution: 70/70 (Healthy )]
[Spirit: 68/71 (Calm )]
[Kidney Power: 70/70 (Virile-)]
[Length: 6.4cm (6.3 0.1) / 14.2cm (14 0.2), Flaccid/Erect]
[Height: 180cm; Weight: 78kg]
"Stats? Not bad."
Even though he got a "Thank you for playing," Lin Shen was still very satisfied.
Compared to money, he was now more interested in improving his Constitution.
’The industrial fund is already at 550,000, huh?’
Lin Shen planned to officially start his entrepreneurial journey once he had saved up a million.
He glanced at the [GoGo Maps] map. He had already checked in at most of the Red Points in the southern part of Modu.
There were still a few scattered locations that he would have to make a special trip for.
Lin Shen closed [GoGo Maps] and opened the [Sports Health] app.
[Ti remaining on current travel reimbursent buff: 10:23:36]
[Settle early?]
[Yes]
[No]
Lin Shen thought for a mont, then tapped "Yes."
After all, he wouldn’t be spending any more money while asleep, so it was better to settle it early and be done with it.
[One-Day Travel Voucher settlent in progress...]
[Disneyland VIP Tour Service: 13,200; Headwear: 160; Ice Cream: 80; Souvenirs: 800; Private Car: 260]
[Total: 14,500.]
[Due to early settlent, reimbursent rate increased to 150%. Total: 21,750.]
"Construction Bank: Your account ending in 7946 received a deposit of RMB 21,750 on August 5th at 22:32. Current balance: 195,000"
’Settling early gives a bigger reimbursent?!’
Lin Shen was a bit stunned.
It was a bit of a sha, though, that he was still five thousand short of completing the [ReceivePal] mission.
"I can probably get it done tomorrow."
Lin Shen lay back on the bed.
’Will I get a new [Random Cracking Card] this ti?’
’Or will it be like the "Fifty-Thousand Assets" mission, where I get a spending voucher of a certain amount?’
Lin Shen was filled with anticipation.
