【Ding!】
【Congratulations to the host for completing the emergency mission "Shortage of manpower"!】
【Thanks to the host's help in finding people, the external industries of the sect no longer have to worry about the heavy workload, and the relationship with the Taoist companion has further improved!】
【Reward: 300 sect contributions, 600 spirit stones, and 1 free draw in the system mall.】
Chen Qimeng took Huang Feirong and began to briefly introduce the whole picture of the flower shop.
Also, what kind of things they would encounter on a daily basis.
Chen Qimeng would handle most of the work.
Only a small part needed Huang Feirong's help.
Lin Yu sat at the table, watching Chen Qimeng talk confidently with enthusiasm. He felt that he had done the right thing.
People, indeed, shine brightly in their own fields of expertise.
This kind of confidence couldn't be measured by money.
"Damn Lin Yu, you're quite capable."
"How did you manage to persuade Sister Hong to let Rongrong come out?"
"I could only borrow her for one day at most, but you just kept her here!"
Lin Yu shrugged and said with a smile,
"Actually, I just gave it a try. I didn't expect it to go so smoothly."
【Ding!】
【Amazing move! Your excellent eloquence and ability have impressed your Taoist companion!】
【Reward: 50 spirit stones】
Lin Yu couldn't help but look at Shen Buyao and found that she was staring at him with an unusually gentle look in her eyes.
Noticing Lin Yu looking at her, Shen Buyao immediately raised the corners of her eyes:
"What are you looking at! Looking for trouble?"
Lin Yu: "..."
She clearly admired him in her heart, but her mouth was still so unyielding.
The personality of the antique sister was really different from that of the other roommates in the apartment.
Lin Yu brought up Shen Buyao's information box.
The three tasks from yesterday were still there.
Moreover.
What was particularly eye - catching was:
【Reverse the Fate and Return to the Heart (Emergency mission * New): The fate of the lone star of the devil can only be broken by people with the patterns of the positive seal and the positive official. Please assist the elder in time to break the shackles of fate!】
The mission was still there!
And based on the information in the prompt, there was almost no direct action instruction.
How could one break the shackles of fate?
Did it mean to deflower her?
Or did it require some substantial physical contact?
Lin Yu cursed the damn system in his heart again. It didn't even come with an instruction manual!
Seeing that Chen Qimeng and Huang Feirong were deeply immersed in "discussing work", it seemed that they wouldn't finish talking for a while.
He might as well take the time to do something else.
Lin Yu replied, "What am I looking at... I'm looking at how good - looking you are."
Shen Buyao: "Damn you..."
Although she was scolding, the upturned corners of her lips couldn't lie.
Lin Yu took the opportunity to ask:
"Judging from the situation of the two of them, it'll take them at least a while to get familiar with the work.
"The future of the shop depends on their good cooperation.
"I always feel that it's a bit of an eyesore for us to stay here. How about going for a stroll in the commercial street?"
【Ding!】
【Amazing move! Your invitation to your Taoist companion has made her overjoyed!】
【Reward: 50 spirit stones】
Shen Buyao adjusted her sitting posture, glanced at Chen Qimeng and Huang Feirong.
Realizing that they weren't paying attention to this side, she whispered:
"Cough, damn Lin Yu, are you inviting me on a date now?
"Let me tell you, I'm very hard to ask out!"
Lin Yu was amused by Shen Buyao's reaction.
Such a grown - up person.
Why was she still like a little girl on campus?
She needed a proper reason for everything she did.
Presumably.
It had a lot to do with the fact that the antique sister had zero social experience with the opposite sex.
Every time he contacted her now, he always had the feeling that she "wanted to drive fast but didn't have a driver's license".
Lin Yu simply picked up his phone:
"Well, then let's make it another time. Let me play with my phone for a while."
Shen Buyao tilted her head: "???"
Lin Yu deliberately didn't look at her: "..."
Shen Buyao pulled at Lin Yu's arm:
"Hey? Why are you so lacking in perseverance!
"When there's a difficulty... can't you try to overcome it?"
Lin Yu: "..."
That's called overcoming difficulties! Not conquering.
Lin Yu locked his phone screen and said calmly:
"Oh, then let me ask again. Do you want to go out for a walk?"
Shen Buyao: "..."
So this was how he overcame difficulties?
He just asked again!
There wasn't even a "sincere" plea in his tone.
If it were another man.
She would definitely scold him without hesitation and ask him if he was blind and stupid!
But facing Lin Yu...
If she refused again, this guy would really just play with his phone, right?
Shen Buyao crossed her arms in front of her chest and said reluctantly:
"Fine, I'll give you a break!
"Damn Lin Yu, are there any fun places on this street?
"I remember that Ruirui also has a shop on this street, right?"
Lin Yu nodded affirmatively and said,
"Buyao, your memory is good. It would be better if you didn't call me 'damn' next time you call me."
After saying that.
He got up to say hello to Chen Qimeng.
Shen Buyao sat on the chair, thinking in her heart:
So he didn't like the name "damn Lin Yu". If he didn't like it, he could just say so!
And did this guy just call her... Buyao?
【Ding!】
【Amazing move! The subconscious affectionate address has made your Taoist companion secretly happy!】
【Reward: 50 spirit stones】
As Lin Yu left, he showed a confident smile.
It seemed that the antique sister's mind wasn't as scary as Shen Jiuyi said.
At least.
She could still keenly notice the small change in the address.
...
After the two of them left the flower shop together.
Lin Yu first took Shen Buyao to an old - fashioned pastry shop called "Shengruixiang".
They sold all kinds of delicate pastries that were very common nowadays.
Among them.
Shengruixiang was most famous for its "old - style five - kernel mooncakes".
With the development of the times, the fillings of mooncakes had become more and more diverse.
The old five - kernel mooncakes always held a high position in the hearts of northerners, especially the middle - aged and elderly northerners.
Wang Biao, the landlord of the flower shop, took the initiative to show his kindness as an elder to a younger generation, expressing his desire to get closer.
As long as Chen Qimeng's flower shop was open, they would always need his support.
Whether it was for himself or for Chen Qimeng.
This relationship needed to be maintained.
It wasn't that he couldn't afford to send famous cigarettes and good wine.
It was just that the other party probably wouldn't even look at them.
A "big landowner" with a row of shop fronts, would he lack high - end cigarettes and expensive liquor?
Rather than looking vulgar, it was better to show one's sincerity.
People who loved jasmine tea would probably not refuse the old five - kernel mooncakes!
After buying a beautifully packaged gift box for Wang Biao.
Lin Yu also bought a few loose five - kernel mooncakes in a food bag for Shen Buyao.
"Good for you, Lin Yu..."
"You give such a nice gift box to Old Wang, but you give me mooncakes in a transparent plastic bag!"
Shen Buyao complained naively.
After all...
This was the first thing Lin Yu had ever given her!
Loose five - kernel mooncakes in a food bag?
And one of them was even half - broken by Lin Yu!
Lin Yu didn't care at all and casually said:
"Of course, when giving gifts to outsiders, it has to be delicate and nice. I'm an adult. Don't I need to save face?
"For our own people to eat, convenience is the most important thing."
Hearing this.
Shen Buyao's eyes suddenly lit up!
e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.
ing gift was a patch of barren land, and disciples were all picked up along the way. He spent fifty years diligently building three "ramshackle little sects," thinking he could finally live a carefree life relying on his disciples. But right at the fifty-year mark, he was suddenly swept away by a spatial rift and exiled to the Chaos Desolation, the Disorderly Ruins. There was no spiritual energy there, only slaughter. Relying on the cultivation feedback from his disciples, Gu Changyuan hacked his way through a sea of blood for eleven hundred years. When the system finally fished him back out, he discovered the ramshackle little sects he'd built back then had developed a rather... unusual style. Hold on... I vanished for a thousand years, so how did my ramshackle little sects become holy lands?!
ut it can buy an entire year of absolutely perfect training results! Su Yu stared at his empty wallet and decisively opened up various online loan platforms. “Borrow a thousand bucks! Recharge my vitality!” Boom! His vitality broke a hundred points, shattering the limits of the human body! “Borrow ten thousand bucks! Recharge my combat skills!” Boom! A basic punching technique so common it was everywhere instantly maxed out, revealing the ultimate assassination technique of Five Elements Unity—Inner Force! When a rich kid hired assassins for a midnight ambush, aiming to break both of his legs, they instead ran headfirst into a monster—a human-shaped tyrannosaur, brimming with dragon-like vitality. With just two fingers, Su Yu snapped a steel staff reinforced with alloy. Staring at the killer’s stash of stolen cash—a staggering quarter-million dollars—he showed a corporate-sincere smile: “Thanks for the pre-exam gift pack, Mr. Zhao! I’m gonna go re-invest this!” Three days later, at the National Martial Arts College Entrance Exam, while everyone else struggled just to reach the passing line, Su Yu threw a single punch—and more than a thousand vitality points literally detonated the entire arena!
