There's something fishy about this dinner, shall I go upstairs first

[Ding!]

[Critical Strike! The intimate interaction between the Holy Son and the Elder of the Tiangong Pavilion has made Pansi Immortal extremely jealous!]

[Reward: 50 Spirit Stones]

Other than Yaoyao's positive feedback, the system also chimed with a jealousy index from Huang Feiya.

It seems that if I want to defeat Huang Feiya as a demon, the most effective way is to show off my affection with someone else!

What an easy enemy to handle, without so many fancy ideas.

She purely wants to capture Lin Yu's heart.

Has Huang Feiya decided that Lin Yu is a major antique tycoon?

How could she have such a strong obsession with someone she has only met a few times?

Or does she have some sort of collection fetish?

Huang Feiya and Madam Green Snake, Teacher Yan, are actually somewhat similar.

They are both tough nuts to crack!

Perhaps compared to Yan Miaozhu, she is relatively milder and less likely to cause a major disturbance.

Otherwise.

The system wouldn't have identified her as a dual-choice option.

It's just that right now, Lin Yu is surrounded by many sect friends, and the internal environment is harmonious and stable.

There's no need to invite hidden troubles for someone he isn't familiar with.

He'll just take it one step at a time.

Whether to eliminate her or recruit her, there's no need to deliberately do anything; everything will just develop as fate dictates.

"Ahem..."

Hearing Lin Yu's words, Shen Buyao deliberately made some noise first.

Then, she said in a calm tone:

"Don't worry, leave this small matter to me."

"With me helping you, you definitely won't suffer any losses!"

"There's no need to say thank you between us."

Lin Yu: "..."

Who said it?

No one said it!

Yaoyao really added a lot of drama to herself.

Her mood was written all over her face.

If she had a tail, it would probably be pointing up to the sky right now!

Look at Miss Huang, she remained unperturbed by favor or disgrace, not showing her emotions on her face.

Even though she suffered a blow internally, she could still maintain a smile and continue speaking.

"Manager Yao's professional ability is naturally unquestionable; she has a great reputation in the Ghost Market Street."

"Since Boss Lin is busy, I will coordinate this matter with Manager Yao when the time comes."

"When you're free, you absolutely must not refuse my gratitude banquet!"

"Boss Lin has done our Huang family such a huge favor, we must thank you properly."

Tsk tsk tsk!

What patience!

It didn't matter if she was turned down today; she was still preparing for the future.

Anyone else would have probably given up long ago.

Yet Huang Feiya kept pressing persistently, vowing not to stop until she achieved her goal.

If he continued to refuse, it would be too disrespectful to her.

He still relied on Huang Feiya's efforts to auction the items for cash.

He couldn't just keep refusing adamantly like a seamless egg.

At the critical moment.

Shen Buyao chimed in quite cleverly.

Perhaps Lin Yu's earlier expression gave her a strong sense of confidence.

She smoothly took over the conversation and said:

"Don't worry, if we squeeze some time, we can definitely make it."

"Lin Yu isn't that busy, we can just grab a meal in a few days, right?"

"When the time comes, he and I will bring Rongrong along, and we can all celebrate together properly. Wouldn't that be a great joy?"

Lin Yu: "!!!"

Honestly.

There was absolutely nothing wrong with Shen Buyao's response.

Anyway, a dinner agreed upon in front of Shen Buyao.

Ultimately, would most likely end up with her attending as well.

It would be better to let Shen Buyao communicate directly with Huang Feiya, so Huang Feiya could understand clearly.

If she wanted to capture Lin Yu, the first hurdle she had to pass was Shen Buyao and Huang Feirong!

Not bad, not bad.

Yaoyao's performance this time deeply won Lin Yu's heart.

He quickly followed up and said:

"That's right, let's do it after the auction is over."

"By then, it will be my turn to collect the money and treat you all, so don't fight me over it."

Since it had come to this.

Huang Feiya had nothing else to say and could only pretend to agree readily.

...

Driving to the Guihang Antique Store.

Lin Yu once again received a high-standard and polite reception.

He chatted briefly with Sister Hong and Huang Daoqi, explaining the shapes of the three treasures.

As for the specific era and their academic names.

Lin Yu couldn't appear too professional, so he had to pretend not to know.

The two elders held onto Lin Yu, expressing their excited gratitude once again.

Just as Huang Feiya had said in the car, they wanted Lin Yu to stay and have a meal together.

He hadn't agreed in the car, and he certainly wouldn't agree on the spot.

After declining repeatedly for a long time, he finally refused Sister Hong's kind offer.

Not long after, Lin Yu left the scene to Shen Buyao.

He let her help handle the follow-up matters.

He himself took a taxi to the restaurant Xia Yiwei had booked.

He wanted to see exactly what kind of medicine the nurse sister was selling in her gourd.

A sudden, impromptu dinner invitation, and so eager to make it happen, not giving Lin Yu a chance to back out.

If she told Lin Yu that she simply wanted to have a meal, he wouldn't believe it even if he were beaten to death!

...

Twenty minutes later.

Lin Yu held up his phone and made a call:

"You haven't even arrived yet, and you're rushing me to come over?"

"I hear you, I hear you, Room 302, right!"

"Why should I rush up? Didn't you say you were almost here?"

"I'll just wait for you downstairs, I'm not that hungry anyway."

"We'll talk about ordering food when you get here."

Lin Yu stood in the parking area at the entrance of the restaurant, speaking into the phone with Xia Yiwei.

After spending this period of time with Xia Yiwei, Lin Yu gradually concluded a principle.

When Xia Yiwei mysteriously asks you to do something, you must stay cautious and alert!

Like right now...

Xia Yiwei repeatedly told him over the phone not to wait for her and to go up to Room 302 to order first!

Analyzing it logically.

The person treating to the meal was Xia Yiwei.

In the morning, she acted more proactive than anyone else, wishing she could directly agree on Lin Yu's behalf.

But now she was late?

Very unreasonable!

Constantly urging him to go to the private room first, what did that mean?

Could there be some "mysterious grand prize" waiting in the private room for Lin Yu to fall into a trap?

The more Xia Yiwei urged, the less Lin Yu was in a hurry to go upstairs.

He insisted on waiting for her to appear before going up together to find out.

When the time came.

Even if there really was some specially prepared mysterious thing, he could drag Xia Yiwei down with him as a cushion.

"Little Master, if I said the traffic is really bad on my end, would you believe me?"

Xia Yiwei said in a weak tone on the other end of the phone.

When she asked the question, she naturally already had the answer in her heart.

Traffic jam?

Traffic jams during meal times are indeed common occurrences.

But Xia Yiwei was a female knight who rode a motorcycle!

Isn't the biggest advantage of a motorcycle that it can freely weave through traffic without getting stuck during morning and evening rush hours or meal time peaks?

Given Xia Yiwei's temper and driving habits.

Unless several large trucks blocked the road completely.

Otherwise.

As long as there was a tiny gap to squeeze through, she could drive over.

The excuse of a traffic jam simply didn't hold up in Lin Yu's mind!

"Weiwei, what do you think?"

Lin Yu asked teasingly.

Xia Yiwei sighed helplessly over the phone and said:

"Alright, I'm in the restroom on the first floor. I'll come get you now."

Lin Yu: "???"
