It was 9:50 a.m.
At the entrance of Xuefu Residential Area.
Lin Yu was carrying a backpack with a newly-arrived and fully-charged DSLR camera inside.
He was punctually waiting for Shen Buyao at the door.
He hadn't asked before what kind of car this antique-like elder sister drove.
Every time a car came out of the community, Lin Yu would take a careful look to find Shen Buyao's figure.
Finally.
With only two minutes left until the appointed time of ten o'clock.
A white Beetle sped out of the community.
No need to think twice.
Driving so urgently, it was obvious that the driver was in a hurry.
It must be the antique-like elder sister!
The Beetle would become a rare car model in the next few years.
It was discontinued because of its poor sales.
The car itself was not big, and it was suitable for a girl to drive.
However, at the same price, there would be more choices in the future.
When an ordinary family bought a car, they would give priority to practicality and space.
Rich and beautiful girls, whether they labeled themselves or were labeled by the rich, needed higher-level cars to highlight their charm.
The Beetle thus lost its advantage in market positioning and completely became an edge car.
It was a bit surprising to Lin Yu that Shen Buyao's car was a Beetle.
With her family's financial resources, it wouldn't be exaggerated for her to drive a Rolls-Royce or a Bentley.
Unexpectedly, she was quite low-key!
The security guards in Xuefu Residential Area were notoriously difficult to deal with.
Whether entering or leaving, one had to register and report their number.
However.
When the security guard came out of the sentry box and saw the white Beetle,
he didn't even ask a single question and directly raised the barrier to let the car through.
Alas.
This antique-like elder sister...
A woman even the security guard had to be in awe of!
After driving the car out.
Lin Yu came to the passenger door and was about to get in the car.
Unexpectedly.
Shen Buyao opened the door from the driver's seat and got out.
It was obvious that the antique-like elder sister had dressed up carefully today.
He couldn't believe that she still had time to do her outfit even though she got up late.
Her long hair was neatly arranged without a single stray hair, and was coiled up at the back of her head with a familiar crescent hairpin.
The small shell-shaped earrings dangled by her ears as she moved.
She was still wearing a moon-white ruqun, a traditional Chinese dress with a unique charm.
It was a modified summer style, shining with a glistening luster.
The skirt swayed gently with her steps, revealing her spotless beautiful legs faintly.
She was like a white cloud that had strayed into the mortal world.
Even without using the "Forbidden Area Exploration Talisman", she still brought a strong sense of contrast in the urban setting.
Such a Chinese-style beautiful girl...
It would be better if she were mute!
"Damn Lin Yu, I remember you said that you can also drive, right?"
Shen Buyao trotted to the passenger seat and asked Lin Yu anxiously.
Lin Yu was completely confused:
"Yes, I also have a driver's license."
"It doesn't matter who drives. Besides, I don't know the way."
"It'll be faster if you lead the way."
When they discussed it before, there was no mention that Lin Yu needed to drive.
However.
Shen Buyao did ask Lin Yu if he had a driver's license and had learned to drive.
So this was what she was up to?
Did she want to rest in the passenger seat and be a cute girl all the way!
However.
Things were far from as simple as Lin Yu thought.
Shen Buyao stared at Lin Yu with a complicated expression and said hesitantly:
"I think..."
"You driving might be...
"Safer than me driving!"
Lin Yu: "???"
There was a hidden meaning in her words!
What did she mean by saying he was safer to drive?
In Shen Buyao's eyes, Lin Yu was just a college student with a driver's license.
He didn't have the practical experience of an old driver at all. How could he be safer?
Lin Yu walked around the car carefully to check the condition of the Beetle.
Except for some slight scratches on the front of the car, there were hardly any major damages.
"Bang!"
While Lin Yu was walking around the car.
Shen Buyao had already sat in the passenger seat and fastened her seat belt.
Lin Yu: "..."
So she was using force, huh?
Didn't even bother to pretend!
Helplessly.
Lin Yu had to get into the driver's seat and threw his backpack and camera bag to Shen Buyao.
He asked her to find a place to put them away.
After adjusting the seat, Lin Yu drove the car skillfully.
Surprisingly.
Although Lin Yu was a bit tall, it didn't affect the Beetle's drivability at all.
The driving experience on the road was quite good!
"Keep going straight ahead. We'll be on the national highway for a long time. Just drive with confidence."
Shen Buyao sat in the passenger seat and turned on her phone to navigate for Lin Yu.
After driving for a while.
Lin Yu curiously asked:
"Yaoyao, your car doesn't seem to have been overhauled. Do you often have accidents?"
Shen Buyao leaned back on the seat and calmly said:
"This is my fourth car."
Lin Yu's eyes twitched: "???"
Just this one sentence.
Almost made Lin Yu lose control of the steering wheel.
So that's what it was!
No wonder the car was in good condition and there were no obvious major damages.
It turned out that the seriously damaged cars were all scrapped!
Shen Buyao noticed Lin Yu's nervousness and quickly said:
"Damn Lin Yu, look at how scared you are."
"I've had a driving license for seven years and have only had three accidents."
"And I've never had an accident when I'm driving alone."
"I don't even have a single traffic ticket. My driving skills are actually quite good."
Lin Yu: "!!!"
Wait a minute...
There was a lot of information in these words!
It made Lin Yu shiver on the spot.
She had a seven-year driving license and had never had an accident when driving alone...
So.
All three accidents happened when there was someone else in the car?
Even more terrifying was...
Three accidents and three cars were crashed and scrapped?
Were the people in the car still alive!
Was she really like a person who brought bad luck, like the so - called "lone star of doom" in the metaphysical sense?
"Yaoyao, may I be so bold as to ask."
"Are the three people who were with you in the three accidents still alive?"
Shen Buyao glared at him angrily:
"Hey, this is way too bold, isn't it?"
After a moment of silence.
Shen Buyao continued:
"The people in the passenger seat..."
"One was in bed for a week."
"One was in bed for two months."
"One was completely unharmed."
Lin Yu noticed the key point.
He quickly asked:
"Oh? There was actually someone who was unharmed?"
Shen Buyao folded her arms in front of her chest and said irritably:
"Yes, that person was my great-great-grandmother.
"She insisted on going back to her hometown to pay homage to our ancestors on a rainy day. No matter how I tried to stop her, she wouldn't listen.
"There were no taxis available at that time, and I was the only driver around, so she took my car.
"And then..."
"The car was smashed to pieces, but great-great-grandmother was safe and sound!"
Lin Yu wondered and said:
"Then your great-great-grandmother has a really strong fate!"
Shen Buyao continued angrily:
"For a long time, I also thought so.
"Later, Big Cow told me that great-great-grandmother had stuck ninety-nine 'Safe Journey Talismans' inside her clothes that day!"
"Tell me, isn't that cheating?"
Lin Yu: "???"
d intelligence to keep the plot moving, and sometimes even the protagonists are forced into absurdly dumb decisions. Why does the A-list celebrity heroine in urban romance novels ditch the top-tier movie star and become a lovestruck fool for a pockmarked male lead? Why do the leads in historical tragedy novels keep dancing between love and death, only for the blind healer to end up suffering the most? And Gu Wei never expected that after finally landing a villain role to stir up trouble, she’d pick the wrong gender! No choice now—she’ll just have to crush the protagonists as a girl!
esick Sect? Well, at least it's considered a respectable orthodox sect. Wait a minute— What kind of vibe are you all giving off? Shouldn’t this be a love-struck, romance-obsessed sect? Why does everyone here sound more like demonic cultivators? "Master, today he’s getting married. This disciple wishes to descend the mountain and crash the wedding, then toy with him to death right in front of his wife..." "Elder, I only got into your sect through connections, so why won’t you teach me anything?" "Because I also became an elder through connections." Thankfully, Su Ji was just an outer sect labor disciple. Surely, nothing too crazy would— "Junior Brother, you’ve broken through to Qi Refining. Once you sever your useless spiritual root, you can officially become an outer sect disciple." "The Great Dao is merciless. Don’t let a worthless spiritual root waste your essence and spirit, hindering your cultivation." Is this really the Lovesick Sect? ... Three years later, Su Ji sat in the seat of the Lovesick Sect’s sect master, sighing with emotion. His rise to this position all started when his junior sister adamantly insisted on preserving his "spiritual root." "Mmm... Senior Brother, what’s our relationship now?" "Stop talking. Keep going." "By the way, that newly promoted top-tier sect—didn’t they come to buy our Love Beans?" "One top-grade spirit stone per Love Bean—is that really so expensive?" "I suspect they’ve eaten too many Love Beans." "Now they’re lovesick." Well, this really is the Lovesick Sect after all.
