Gasp! She's a Time Traveler Using Modern Tech to Improve Ancient Life Chapter 484 - 482: The First to Love Surrenders First

After leaving the police station, Lu Shouyue first sent the sobered-up Han Qingxue ho, then asked Lin Wanwan if she wanted to go to Jie Yuting’s place for a drink since it was currently Jie Yuting’s tavern’s operating hours.

"Maybe another day, I’m a bit tired today."

Lin Wanwan had been busy entertaining guests today, and the socializing had worn her out. Now, she just wanted to go ho, enjoy a nice bath, and get a good night’s sleep, then return to the Great Tang; she didn’t want to go anywhere else.

"Alright." Hearing Lin Wanwan’s refusal, Lu Shouyue calmly replied.

Since they watched a teor shower together on Lin Wanwan’s birthday, the two hadn’t spent ti alone, nor did they have any contact through WeChat.

If it hadn’t been for Lin Wanwan inviting Lu Shouyue to her birthday party ahead of ti, they might not have t today.

Although nothing was spoken that romantic night under the teor shower, their relationship sharply declined afterward—more precisely, Lu Shouyue unilaterally entered a cold war.

Lin Wanwan, who had been spending much more ti in the Great Tang than in the modern era recently, experienced nearly a week’s ti difference between the two realms, so she hadn’t noticed the neglect from the other side and didn’t have any spare energy to think about it.

She was overwheld daily with raising leopards, studying dicine books, practicing acupuncture, and handling business affairs in both the Great Tang and the modern era.

For Lu Shouyue, they hadn’t contacted each other for a week, but for Lin Wanwan, it felt like half a month had already passed, and the birthday night event was past tense.

So when they t again at today’s banquet, Lin Wanwan enthusiastically invited Lu Shouyue to sit at the main table, as he was one of her friend representatives.

Lin Wanwan truly had very few friends in the modern era; her familial ties were weak there, and Lu Shouyue was one of the rare people she felt comfortable being around.

For Lu Shouyue, things were not so simple and indifferent.

That night, even if he didn’t express it clearly, he felt that everything he did showed his heart. How could a smart beloved not see through it?

So things can be understood without saying.

However, Lin Wanwan happened to be "slow-witted" and couldn’t see through it, leaving Lu Shouyue at a loss for words, feeling exhausted ntally.

He wanted the cold war to continue and hoped Lin Wanwan would remain cold, but she reminded him about today’s banquet.

After reconsidering, since he chose to attend on ti, there was no reason to continue the cold war.

Moreover, upon eting, Lin Wanwan greeted him with a smile as if nothing had happened. Most importantly, she wore the necklace he had given her around her graceful neck.

Lu Shouyue could only helplessly surrender, even if it ant the sunk cost for him was too high to abandon.

After sending Lin Wanwan ho, Lu Shouyue’s car parked on the road east of her house. He got out of the driver’s seat, leaned silently against the car hood, and looked up as the lights on Lin Wanwan’s second-floor window turned on.

Soon, a figure approached the curtain under the east window of Lin Wanwan’s room, and then the light-blocking curtain was gently closed, with only a sliver of light peeking through the gap.

Lu Shouyue lowered his eyes, chuckled softly, then returned to the driver’s seat and started his car to leave.

While Lu Shouyue was lancholily heading ho, Lin Wanwan was leisurely soaking in a massage bathtub, listening to music and browsing her phone.

On a social dia platform, news had already appeared about Wu Feiyue’s restroom escape to dodge the bill today. Such stories of online dating partners eting and disliking each other were certainly the key to drawing views.

Those self-dia creators who fild the video only needed to add a gender-opposing headline to stir the public’s nerves.

Not to ntion, the story later involved "spectators" and an escapee slapping a supposed ex-girlfriend, then being dragged into a dark room by said ex-girlfriend’s presud new boyfriend; with all these developnts piled together, it’s hard not to beco a trending topic.

What surprised Lin Wanwan was how the netizens’ comnts evolved from initial mockery to imaginative scenarios, with the most unexpected one being this narrative: "My rival in love beca my couple!"

Although Lu Shouyue appeared in the video wearing a mask, due to his height, aura, and those deep, charming eyes, the handso atmosphere was tantalizing.

Netizens found his action of moving in to subdue the scumbag Wu Feiyue incredibly dashing, then flawlessly and swiftly throwing him into the storage room. So viewers with a penchant for BL relationships quickly imagined a dominant top versus feeble bottom scenario from the action video.

Thus, the comnts went astray.

Lin Wanwan was utterly stunned, speechless.

She imagined Lu Shouyue’s likely disgusted expression upon seeing this news and couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

The situation was genuinely hilarious, even though Lin Wanwan tried not to laugh, she couldn’t control herself.

The public’s whimsical comntary rhythm amused them, but those familiar with Lu Shouyue saw another aning in the news.

Wang Anni, the second princess of Feiniao Shoes introduced to Lu Shouyue by his aunt, discovered a blind spot in the trending news at this mont—the blue diamond necklace around Lin Wanwan’s neck!

Ordinary people might only regard the news about the blue diamond auction nad "Dream Chasing Star" as entertaining, but for those with aspirations to climb to the top, their focus would be entirely different.

That blue diamond was bought by Lu Shouyue at a price of 48 million US Dollars; among his acquaintances, it wasn’t a secret, and many were aware, including his aunt, Lu Junlan, who had received the news.

Lu Junlan had even hinted to Wang Anni to seize the opportunity.

Whoever owns the Dream Chasing Star owns Lu Shouyue’s heart.

Being one of the world’s ten most expensive diamonds, even the wealthiest tycoon wouldn’t casually give it away. The wealthier a person, usually, the more astute and mindful of return rates, which is common knowledge.

But it hadn’t been long since the blue diamond auction. Now it was crafted into a teor Necklace worn around a certain soone’s neck!

The impact of the scene was too powerful, as if slapping Wang Anni in the face, smashing her charm.

At Lu’s mother’s birthday banquet, when Wang Anni t Lin Wanwan for the first ti, she didn’t consider Lin Wanwan a competitor because Lin Wanwan had an innocent style, believing that her enchanting figure would be more popular among mature n.

After being introduced to Lu Shouyue by Lu Junlan, Wang Anni confidently started going down the flirtatious path, even chasing him from Hai City to Yongcheng.

She was extrely self-assured, believing that any man she fancied would eventually succumb to her charms. Even if Lu Shouyue was cold, as long as he didn’t like n, he couldn’t escape her palm.

Yet, the woman who fleetingly appeared in the trending news alongside the blue diamond severely frustrated her.

She had been in countless relationships, having admirers lined up from France, but she had never received a gift comparable to the invaluable "Dream Chasing Star."

A man’s love for a woman can perhaps not be fully asured in terms of money. A man willing to spend lavishly might not truly love you, but a man who isn’t willing to spend certainly doesn’t love you, which is Wang Anni’s constant belief.
