After leaving the Leng Family, Gu Yan sat in a luxury car heading home.
He was a man who knew when to quit while he was ahead, even though there had been some errors in the process of gaining points.
But he felt that, overall, it wasn't bad.
If there was a way to visualize it, he thought his favorability with Leng Qingqiu should have increased by about 10%.
Yes, he was that confident.
Oh right, let's check today's gains.
Gu Yan gleefully opened the system mall, only to see [Points: 60] marked in the points column.
Hmm, 60 points, representing that the score of his love with Leng Qingqiu had reached a passing level.
Perhaps this was fate.
Gu Yan smiled with satisfaction, then began to examine the items in the system store.
[Pill Category], [Technique Category], [Divine Ability Category], [Pet Category], [Body Tempering Category], [Cold Weapon Category], [Firearm Category], [Celestial Tool Category]...
Gu Yan looked at the dazzling array of categories before him with great interest, but unfortunately, his meager points were far from enough to exchange for those divine abilities and techniques that sounded so impressive.
In the original story.
This world was considered a low-level martial arts world, with the existence of innate and acquired masters and grand masters.
It was rumored that masters could use qi to protect their bodies and resist bullet attacks.
However, this martial arts information was not known to ordinary people.
In the later stages, Leng Qingqiu even cultivated to become a peak grand master.
As for him, just an ordinary person, now that he had a system, he naturally wouldn't put all his hopes on others.
He would, of course, use the resources at hand to start cultivating himself.
Thinking of this, he found the technique category and clicked in, only to discover a strange phenomenon.
Almost all the techniques were in a state marked with red exclamation marks.
Only one technique called [Cosmic Pure Love Technique] was available to view its information.
"What the hell is this?"
Gu Yan's mouth twitched. What on earth was this Cosmic Pure Love Technique?
The next second.
[Hello, host. Because this system is a pure love system, practicing other techniques is simply the most detestable bull-headed behavior to this system!! That's simply too too too too!!! Too shameless!!]
[Therefore, the host can only practice this system's exclusive technique — Cosmic Pure Love Technique!!]
?
Hey! You're just a system! Why are you meddling so much?!
Gu Yan covered his face, unable to criticize the pure love system's behavioral logic.
But the technique was given by the system, and he had no choice but to follow this rule. Reluctantly, Gu Yan clicked on the Cosmic Pure Love Technique.
There was only one line of introduction.
[Cosmic Pure Love Technique, just need to perform pure love deeds to activate pure love energy! This energy can cleanse the meridians for the technique's owner, continuously nourishing the body, making it stronger and stronger, and making learning anything else twice as effective!]
It seemed to have some merit. In simple terms, it meant that one could become stronger just by performing pure love deeds, right?
Gu Yan suddenly realized, but unfortunately, this technique cost 100 points. It seemed he would have to save up more!
Thinking of this, Gu Yan put away the system, his eyes revealing a hint of anticipation.
Alright, following this momentum, let his favorability with Leng Qingqiu soar upwards!
Old Gao, who was driving, saw Gu Yan smiling in the rearview mirror and felt gratified.
He could sense that the young master seemed to have changed.
Because of Shen Wan'er, the young master's demeanor used to be irritable and depressed.
But now, after letting go of Shen Wan'er, the young master's entire mental state had become refreshed.
This was good news, surely the master and mistress would be pleased as well.
......
......
Jinxia Commercial Street.
This place was the largest commercial area in Jianghai City.
It was filled with countless luxury goods, and many internet celebrities, stars, and rich second-generation often came here to check in, take photos, and shop.
In a restaurant.
"Wan'er, are you saying that bastard Gu Yan hasn't contacted you for three days?" Xie Baiwei, the daughter of the Xie family, looked incredulously at the silent beauty beside her.
"Mm." Shen Wan'er nodded silently.
Upon receiving this answer, Wu Lili, the daughter of the Wu family sitting opposite them, immediately turned cold. She angrily cursed, "What a scumbag!"
"Just because our Wan'er refused to be his girlfriend because she's focused on her career! And now he's giving Wan'er the cold shoulder!"
"What a petty man!"
Saying this, she held Shen Wan'er's hand and earnestly said, "Wan'er, it's good you didn't agree to be that scumbag Gu Yan's girlfriend, otherwise who knows what he might have done to you!"
Shen Wan'er pursed her lips at these words. Based on her understanding of Gu Yan, how could he possibly give her the cold shoulder?
She hesitantly asked, "Should I maybe send him a message to ask what's going on?"
Shen Wan'er wondered if perhaps her previous refusal had hurt him? Should she comfort him a little like she used to?
It wasn't like this situation hadn't happened before, but as long as she took the initiative to make a phone call, he would come running to curry favor the next day.
Xie Baiwei heard this and pressed down on Shen Wan'er's hand that was about to send a message, then said earnestly, "Wan'er, this is where you're wrong."
"Haven't you realized the trick this scumbag Gu Yan is playing?"
Shen Wan'er was stunned, "Trick?"
She looked at Xie Baiwei and asked in confusion, "Weiwei, what do you mean?"
"Oh my, it's a common ploy used by crafty men," Xie Baiwei sneered with disdain, waving her hand in annoyance. "Deliberately not talking to you, deliberately neglecting you, making you feel a sense of crisis."
"This scumbag is playing hard to get with you!"
"The purpose is to make you take the initiative to apologize to him! To coax him! Wan'er, I advise you not to fall for his trap!"
"Men's words are deceptive, we excellent women must be good at discerning truth from falsehood!"
At this point.
Wu Lili sitting opposite also nodded repeatedly, asserting, "Weiwei is right! Wan'er, you absolutely must not fall for this kind of trick!"
Wu Lili even patted her chest, guaranteeing, "We're experienced in these matters, we understand this kind of thing best!"
Hearing both of her good friends say this, Shen Wan'er's heart began to waver and suddenly realize.
So that's how it was. No wonder in the past when Gu Yan stopped seeking her out, and then she took the initiative to find him, he would be so happy.
It turns out it was because he was playing hard to get!
"Yes, Wan'er, when you fell for it before, who knows how he might have been laughing at you behind your back!" Xie Baiwei sighed and shook her head, as if truly feeling sorry for her good friend.
"Laughing at how easily you fell for his tricks!"
The more Shen Wan'er listened, the more she felt her friends were right.
Thinking about how in the past when Gu Yan ignored her, she would take the initiative to message him to find out what was going on...
Now it seemed...
Who knows if Gu Yan was laughing at her falling for it!
Damn it... I misjudged you, Gu Yan.
Shen Wan'er's brows furrowed slightly, suddenly feeling that all her kindness towards Gu Yan had been in vain.
Before she could finish her thoughts, her two good friends chattered on.
"Wan'er, think about it, we women need to appear strong in every aspect."
"If you lower yourself beneath Gu Yan, where would that lead! Wan'er, you were too nice to that scumbag before!"
"That's why he kept using these tricks to play you over and over!"
"In my opinion, this time you shouldn't take the initiative to find him! Just wait until he can't stand the loneliness! He'll come to you to apologize on his own!"
The more Shen Wan'er listened, the more reasonable it seemed. She began to wonder if she had been too easy-going before.
Thinking of this, she decided not to contact Gu Yan and let him entertain himself!
Seeing this, Xie Baiwei and Wu Lili exchanged a glance, then coughed lightly, "Wan'er, shall we order? This restaurant is ranked No.1 on the niche review site for high-end restaurants!"
Feeling deceived by Gu Yan, Shen Wan'er nodded. This restaurant was also chosen by her two good friends.
She believed the taste wouldn't disappoint, and decided to use food to eliminate the frustration in her heart!
Gu Yan! I misjudged you!
