Gasp! She's a Time Traveler Using Modern Tech to Improve Ancient Life Chapter 794 - 787: This Man Is Really Handsome

"Wanwan, can I take a photo with you?" Chen Yan walked over to Lin Wanwan, who was enjoying the breeze on the deck, holding a selfie stick in her hand.

Lin Wanwan turned to look at her and said plainly, "Sure."

Chen Yan then moved closer to Lin Wanwan and took a beautified photo, excitedly posting it to her WeChat Monts and Weibo account.

For Chen Yan, such a glamorous upper-class party was certainly a novel and rare experience.

At Lu Shouyue’s birthday party, there were naturally many second and third generations.

Even if we talk about looks, there weren’t many outstanding ones. However, a person’s charm often ties with their social class and the brands they wear.

Clearly, everyone on this boat could be considered quite charming in the worldly sense.

Chen Yan had never had the chance to encounter so many high-quality prospects in her life; seeing them suddenly made her feel disdain for her boyfriend, who was still struggling to buy a house.

Only Su Yanwei couldn’t read minds; having just tasted sensuality, he now thought he was in deep love with his girlfriend.

In reality, she had already been swayed by the allure of the beautifying cara and the illusions of this upper-class society, starting to despise him.

Lin Wanwan and Chen Yan were like oil and water; even if the other tried to flatter her intentionally, she still didn’t like to interact with her.

Perhaps it was an instinct, but she always felt that Chen Yan and her cousin’s relationship was more of a compromise; the most common scenario where people et the right person at the right age and do what’s deed appropriate.

Amid all this, there was little pure affection involved.

If not for her cousin’s sake, she wouldn’t have any interaction with Chen Yan. From start to finish, Chen Yan was not soone she would like as a friend.

After being perfunctory with Chen Yan, Lin Wanwan carried her wine glass and left the deck, unwilling to communicate more with her.

By this ti, the banquet had ended, and the party guests split into several groups.

The buffet-style party allowed people to mingle freely.

Lin Wanwan’s eyes searched the crowd for Lu Shouyue’s figure and finally spotted him playing chess with a chubby guy.

As if sensing Lin Wanwan’s gaze, Lu Shouyue looked up and gave her a slight smile.

Lin Wanwan’s eyes lit up instantly, like a star cutting through the clouds in the dark night.

Among everyone on this ship, only Lu Shouyue could make her genuinely happy. Even with her cousin Su Yanwei, she had little to say.

Lin Wanwan lifted her skirt and navigated through the playful crowd, quickly reaching Lu Shouyue’s side to watch him play chess.

He made a little room for her so she could sit next to him, but Lin Wanwan had no such intention; she just knelt on one knee on the bench for support, looking both lazy and charming.

The chubby guy playing against Lu Shouyue was encountering a dilemma, frowning as he thought of a strategy, not noticing the added presence on the bench opposite him.

The onlookers were still making unrestrained comnts, making the chubby guy even more restless.

In contrast, Lu Shouyue appeared calm and unaffected, casually caressing Lin Wanwan’s small hand and exchanging flirtatious glances with her.

Lin Wanwan lowered her head to look at the chessboard and quickly understood the chubby guy’s predicant.

This was a crucial move!

A difficult choice had to be made to sacrifice a chariot to protect the king.

If the chubby guy resolved the crisis in front of the chariot now, he would face a decisive end in the next move.

If he chose to move the General to resolve the checkmate crisis, the next move would lead to a chariot capture check!

Overall, this was a board with no gratifying moves.

It seed like there were choices, but every step was clearly set.

The two had played several gas; Lin Wanwan initially thought they were evenly matched, but it beca apparent it was one-sided all along!

How could this go on?

If the chubby guy wasn’t a masochist, then Lu Shouyue was just toying with him, giving him the illusion that he could win.

Lin Wanwan’s chess skills had improved significantly after many matches with Xiao Chong and Dugu Di, so she now had so level of understanding while watching.

Seeing that the chubby guy was bound to lose, Lin Wanwan relaxed, lightly resting her hand on Lu Shouyue’s shoulder, appearing composed.

Unlike the woman across who earnestly hugged the chubby guy’s shoulder, Lin Wanwan rely draped her arm lightly across Lu Shouyue, as if ready to leave at any mont.

"Move away, don’t distract !" The chubby guy pushed away the woman leaning on him, his face a bit flushed from anger.

The woman, embarrassed at being scolded publicly, had an awkward look, and Lin Wanwan, observing her expression, thought she’d knock over the chessboard and storm off in the next mont.

But, to Lin Wanwan’s surprise, the woman swallowed her pride, staying close to the chubby guy to cheer him on despite the disdain.

Lin Wanwan glanced at the chubby guy’s wealthy-looking watch and couldn’t help sighing inwardly: The world of adults, charm really doesn’t have much to do with looks.

She couldn’t help but look again at Lu Shouyue’s handso and distinguished figure, which stood in stark contrast to the chubby guy and the ordinary spectators around him, inexplicably filling her with joy.

Happiness often cos from comparison.

Love and marriage are both risks for Lin Wanwan, but if she were to take a risk with a handso guy, surely it would be more enjoyable.

The chubby guy couldn’t hold out under Lu Shouyue’s play for long before he was utterly defeated, and even after the checkmate, he remained unwilling to accept it.

"Co on, play again, Old Lu, one more!"

"No way, Fatty, you lost. Move over; it’s my turn." Soone nearby was arguing with the chubby guy.

Lu Shouyue stood up, offering his spot and saying, "You guys play. I need to rest a bit."

"No, you can’t leave after winning so many chips from ." The chubby guy wouldn’t let Lu Shouyue walk away.

Lu Shouyue said lightly, "Everyone here shares the winnings, let’s divide the chips equally."

"Oh, Lu Shao is mighty!"

"Being generous with my money!" The chubby guy gritted his teeth, helpless against Lu Shouyue’s antics, watching him smile and play with the ribbons on his girlfriend’s skirt as he left with her.

"How much did he lose? He seems very unwilling." Lin Wanwan glanced back at the crowd scrambling for chips.

Lu Shouyue said indifferently, "Probably just the monthly allowance from his family trust fund."

"It must be quite a lot; you guys play big!" Lin Wanwan casually remarked.

Lu Shouyue laughed, "Just a few brothers playing around; it stays internal. Anyway, Wanwan, want to go night fishing?"

Lin Wanwan enthusiastically responded, "Yes, yes! Let’s go fishing!"

She vividly rembered the ti she went squid fishing with Lu Shouyue.

She loved this carefree, leisurely life. Night fishing at sea gave the illusion of being far from all troubles.

The ocean is truly relaxing; why else would the sound of waves be turned into hypnotic white noise?
