Walking into the exhibition hall, it's as if one has entered a whole new world...
A real fairy - tale world!
In Jimmy Liao's picture - book works, all kinds of the most outstanding characters and illustrations are presented in a riot of colors.
"Turn Left, Turn Right", "The Smiling Fish", "I'm Not a Perfect Kid", "The Lost Paradise Series"...
Before coming, Lin Yu had done a lot of research in advance.
Now, he has the ability of the cat's "photographic memory" and Chi Qingshui's "ability to read a page at a glance".
Reading books is a piece of cake for him.
Moreover,
These are picture books with more pictures and fewer words.
He quietly observed Ye Mengfu beside him.
Sure enough, as she said, she was not affected by Jiang Yangmei.
Since entering the exhibition hall, her eyes have been shining as she looked around.
She looked at everything seriously and intently, showing her "excitement" and "happiness" on her little face.
That's good.
When the two walked into the exclusive exhibition area of "The Lost Paradise" series,
Ye Mengfu couldn't move forward at all. She carefully examined every illustration and every piece of text decoration.
She looked at them over and over again and kept taking out her phone to take pictures.
Couldn't Lin Yu tell what this meant?
"Xiaofufu, which one of the five books in 'The Lost Paradise' series do you like the most?"
"Is it 'Loneliness Takes the Stage', 'Childhood Snows', 'Secrets Blossom', 'Magic Fails', or 'Miracles Get Lost'?"
[Ding!]
[Brilliant move! The soul - deep understanding and spiritual resonance with your Taoist partner make her firmly believe that your fate is predestined!]
[Reward: 50 spirit stones]
Ye Mengfu: "!!!"
"Lin Yu, you... you've also read all of them?!"
There were only some classic illustrations on - site, without the names of each work.
Being able to rattle off the names as if he knew them by heart meant that Lin Yu must have read all of them.
Moreover, he was very familiar with them!
Lin Yu took Ye Mengfu's hand and said seriously,
"Yes, this is my favorite series among Jimmy Liao's works.
I've not only read it, but also read it more than once.
My favorite is the second book, 'Childhood Snows'. There's a character in it that I adore..."
"Here it is!"
As he spoke,
Lin Yu pointed upwards at an illustration hanging above the exhibition area.
There was a white bear covered in wounds, with colorful cross - shaped band - aids pasted all over its body.
The reason he chose this picture - book character was that since entering this exhibition area, this bear had appeared three times.
Every time it appeared,
Ye Mengfu would take several pictures of this character from different angles.
Other characters had also appeared multiple times, but none of them made her so persistent.
The system had already given the answer as to how well Lin Yu's choice was.
[Ding!]
[Brilliant move...]
[Reward: 50 spirit stones]
Ye Mengfu's pupils flickered: "Cross Bear!"
Lin Yu understood and continued calmly,
"Yes, it's Cross Bear.
He's an unlucky child who has experienced a lot of pain since childhood.
If you ask him where it hurts the most, he'll touch his heart.
I really like a line when he appears..."
"Who in the world hasn't been hurt? The most painful place..."
Ye Mengfu: "...should be bandaged in the most beautiful way!"
Lin Yu felt a secret thrill inside.
Sure enough!
The choice was spot - on.
"Yes! That's the line!"
"Hahaha, Xiaofufu, it seems we're really in sync!"
"How do you also know this line?"
Lin Yu said happily.
Ye Mengfu instinctively tightened her grip on Lin Yu's hand:
"Childhood Snows and Cross Bear... are also my favorites..."
[Ding!]
[Brilliant move...]
[Reward: 50 spirit stones]
It seemed that he could gain quite a lot from today's comic exhibition.
Xiaofufu was really a precious gem!
Lin Yu took the opportunity to pull her a little closer and then added,
"After we finish visiting this area, I have a gift for you. I'm sure you'll love it!"
This time,
Ye Mengfu didn't look overly surprised or panicked.
"I also have a gift..."
Ye Mengfu said sweetly.
With the previous experiences, she could completely guess that her boyfriend, who loved giving gifts, would definitely prepare a gift for her on such an important date today.
So,
Ye Mengfu had also chosen a gift in advance and planned to give it to Lin Yu today.
It was a sweet moment of interaction between the couple.
But there was always someone who didn't want to see them so happy...
Lin Yu kept smiling but didn't say anything further because the "mountain demon" lady, who was about to speak, had already come beside them.
"Xiaofu, you still love Jimmy Liao as much as before.
It seems you haven't changed at all. You're still the same as before,"
Jiang Yangmei's voice came from the other side, across the display cabinet.
There was no sign of the old artist Guan Bao beside her, nor could he be seen nearby.
It seemed that after entering the exhibition hall, the old artist had probably found an excuse to slip away, leaving the "mountain demon" lady alone here.
"Yes, not changing... is good,"
Ye Mengfu raised her voice a bit so that Jiang Yangmei could hear.
Lin Yu didn't rush to join the conversation.
This is the moment for Ye Mengfu's "solo battle".
In the face of an old enemy, if one blindly shields her behind,
how can it be considered as [assisting the charm user to overcome inner demons and enabling her to fight back actively]?
Jiang Yangmei was full of surprise when she heard Ye Mengfu's tone and attitude.
Was she such a person before?
Shouldn't she be too nervous and timid to say a word?
However,
soon, Jiang Yangmei put on a smile again. She casually picked up a picture book in the exhibition area and continued,
"Maybe so."
"Jimmy is really amazing. He has so many masterpieces and knows how to do marketing and deal with the market.
People like us who only know how to bury our heads in painting should never be able to become the next him in our lifetime, right?"
"Good luck to you, Xiaofu."
After saying these words,
at the moment when Ye Mengfu was left speechless,
Jiang Yangmei put down the picture book and left the scene gracefully.
Lin Yu looked at the gloom on Ye Mengfu's face and felt helpless.
Alas.
Ye Mengfu is still not good at arguing with others!
Although Jiang Yangmei said "people like us who only know how to bury our heads in painting",
it's obvious that this kind of person only refers to Ye Mengfu.
Jiang Yangmei herself is not such a person.
It's clearly telling Ye Mengfu, 'Haven't you changed? Then just keep dreaming.'
Lin Yu took off the backpack on his back and unzipped it.
Inside was the "Special Collection of Jimmy's Comic Characters" he had prepared for Ye Mengfu.
Looking at the atmosphere now,
if he continued to give it to her, it might have the opposite effect.
Lin Yu racked his brains and thought rapidly.
So,
he slowly took out from the backpack...
the "Goubuli Pastries" Wang Biao had given him this morning!

he colors of other people’s emotions. Light red meant anxiety. Gray meant exhaustion. Orange meant excitement. Yellow... meant repression. At the same time, he could gain unlimited control over one of those colors. Pale cyan: relaxation. Using this ability, he started offering “two-yuan hugs,” spending an afternoon exchanging emotional-color experiences with others. Then came his final female customer of the day— a girl whose emotional color was pure black... —— A week later, Xu Chuan had become skilled at using pale cyan—Relaxation—treating it like a bottle of menthol balm whenever he needed it. That was when he discovered he had unlocked another unlimited emotional color: Purple, the color of fear. So these emotional colors refresh every week? Fine, I take it back—I’ll never call you useless again... —— Much later, after Xu Chuan had accumulated countless emotional abilities, one night, he suddenly found himself inside someone else’s dream. There, he could use the emotional colors he possessed to paint. And in her dream, he painted her a shower of pink shooting stars, spreading across the depths of the night sky...

He binds a system that grants him cultivation power based on the number of disciples he has: for each disciple, he automatically gains a year's worth of cultivation every single day! Take one disciple: every day he gains 1 year of cultivation power. While others struggle through a year of bitter training, he gets the same just by sleeping through a single night.

Take one hundred disciples: every day he gains 100 years of cultivation power. Even a Soul Transformation Venerable before him can’t survive a single blow. Take ten thousand disciples: every day he gains 10,000 years of cultivation power! With a wave of his hand, he topples empires. With a single step, he crushes the sacred grounds of the universe. ... While others fight tooth and nail for secret techniques, Lin Yan casually hands out Nascent Soul-level cultivation manuals as beginner textbooks. While others strain to find talented recruits, Lin Yan opens his doors to anyone—so long as they’re human. In just three short years, the Heavenly Yan Sect went from a backwater sect made up of three crumbling huts to a sacred land that every cultivator under heaven would kill to enter. ... One day, otherworldly demon gods invade, with a million demon soldiers pressing down upon the realm. Lin Yan, yawning, rises from his lounge chair and glances at the system panel: [Current Disciples: 1.28 million] [Daily Cultivation Increase: 1.28 million years] He waves his hand casually, and the countless demon soldiers are reduced to ashes in an instant. “So noisy… interrupting my fishing.”
