Chi Qingchi was stunned in place.
She understood the meaning of these words.
Lin Yu was using information asymmetry!
Knowing they were roommates sharing an Apartment, these words didn't sound strange.
But to an outsider who didn't know, the information conveyed was immense.
The two were just sharing an Apartment, yet now it sounded as if they were cohabiting!
And Chi Qingchi found it hard to explain.
At this moment, she was filled with regret...
She should have just gone along with Lin Yu outside and pretended to be his girlfriend as he suggested.
Now, it was even worse; they hadn't said they were boyfriend and girlfriend, but had directly changed it to cohabitation!
It felt like he had forcefully squeezed his way in, and she was powerless to resist.
“Ding!”
“Fatal blow! The Heretical Evil Demon has been completely slain!”
“Congratulations to the host for successfully protecting the Hehuan Sect Bell Messenger and declaring your sovereignty!”
“Reward: 100 sect contribution, 200 Spirit Stones, 1 free draw from the System Mall!”
Woohoo~
Finally, it's dead.
What a thrilling battle!
“Vice President Zhao, we’re heading home now. Let’s eat together next time~”
Lin Yu really wanted to shake Zhao Yuhao’s hand and thank him for his generous gift.
Seeing Zhao Yuhao look utterly shattered, woodenly forcing a smile and waving, Lin Yu reluctantly left him intact.
“Goodbye, Vice President Zhao, and goodbye, two classmates.”
Chi Qingchi politely greeted the group and obediently followed Lin Yu’s steps.
Watching their retreating figures.
Hao Qian couldn’t help but say,
“Being handsome really lets you do whatever you want. He actually made Xiao Chi carry such a big figurine.”
Zhou Yang patted the nearly shattered Zhao Yuhao, comforting him,
“Don’t look. It’s obvious they’ve been living together for more than a day or two.”
“They must have already… you know.”
“Let it go, Haozi!”
...
Lin Yu and Chi Qingchi said they were leaving.
In reality, they weren't in such a hurry to go.
Coming to Spring Plaza, besides slaying the Heretical Evil Demon, there were also daily quests from the Quest Fairy that could be completed.
Their current sect contribution had accumulated to 250 points.
Another 150 points would allow for two consecutive draws directly. Why not?
Chi Qingchi unhappily carried the figurine for Lin Yu, her small head once again brainstorming...
In the eyes of her classmates at school, wouldn't she become the girl who cohabited with a male classmate?
Wuwuwu.
The price of shaking off Vice President Zhao Yuhao was too great.
Lin Yu noticed Chi Qingchi’s dilemma and teased,
“Don’t overthink it. Don’t worry, Zhao Yuhao definitely won’t spread it around.”
Chi Qingchi looked up at Lin Yu:
“Really? Don’t lie to me.”
Lin Yu analyzed with a firm tone:
“Of course! Think about it carefully…”
“Your Vice President Zhao must have told others that you are his girlfriend, or a potential girlfriend who is just a step away.”
“How could he possibly tell others that his little goddess is actually already cohabiting with another guy?”
“Wouldn’t that be a huge slap to his own face?”
Chi Qingchi pondered along Lin Yu’s line of thought, muttering,
“It does seem to be the case.”
Seeing Chi Qingchi sigh in relief, Lin Yu grinned mischievously and said,
“Hehe, he definitely won’t say anything, but his two little buddies might.”
“It’s possible that after school starts, you’ll already be seen as a married woman in everyone’s eyes.”
Chi Qingchi’s small face quickly filled with anguish again:
“Ahhh… Xiao Lin, give me back my innocence!”
Teasing a young girl felt really good.
He had spent over a decade in his previous life busy, truly not knowing what he was busy for.
What people pursue might very well be something they already possessed from the start.
“I can’t give you back your innocence, but how about a rem cosplay outfit? A reward for your obedience.”
Passing by a store selling rem cosplay outfits, Lin Yu stopped.
If Lin Yu had just said “cosplay outfit” without a prefix.
Or if he had mentioned a cosplay outfit of another female character, Chi Qingchi would have refused and left.
Today she had already received a membership card “reward,” and Lin Yu had spent a lot of money.
Any further spending would naturally be refused.
But Lin Yu specifically mentioned a “rem” cosplay outfit, which spoke directly to her heart!
Noticing Chi Qingchi was again “struggling with her bottom line.”
Lin Yu pointed at the rem standee placed in front of the store and said,
“Xiao Chi, haven’t you noticed? Your figure is really similar to hers.”
“You would look absolutely stunning in her outfit, wouldn’t you?”
“She’s practically a perfect match for you as an anime character, absolutely gorgeous!”
“Ding!”
“Heavenly move! The simple and unadorned sincere praise made the Hehuan Sect Bell Messenger overjoyed!”
“Reward: 20 Spirit Stones.”
With the instruction manual in hand, wasn’t it easy to handle this little otaku girl?
Look at Chi Qingchi, already showing her starry-eyed obsession again...
“Xiao Lin, you are kind and have good taste.”
“Hehe, I also think I’m very suitable for cosplaying rem. We thought of the same thing!”
“How about… I write you an IOU, treating it as money I borrowed.”
“When my sister comes back, I’ll definitely pay you back.”
Another instance of exasperating meticulousness.
Lin Yu actually thought it was good.
At least she wasn't a manipulative girl who would just exploit men for value.
Having a bottom line in how she acted was good.
After settling on it.
The two walked into the store and began a new round of shopping.
Soon after...
Lin Yu: “No matching aquamarine colored contact lenses? Then it won’t look like rem.”
Chi Qingchi: “Xiao Lin, you really understand!”
“…”
Lin Yu: “Wow, this one is even more perfect, the latest Hatsune Miku cosplay outfit, and the price is so cheap!”
Chi Qingchi: “Yes, yes, the material feels really comfortable too!”
“…”
Three daily quests could be completed in one store.
It couldn’t be more comfortable.
The sales associate politely reminded them:
“Excuse me, handsome and beautiful, we don’t allow trying on here. You can only buy based on the size.”
Cosplay outfits are like this because too many people come to try them on just to take a photo.
They leave after taking pictures and posting them on their social media.
So, every cosplay clothing store in the anime field doesn’t allow trying on.
You can only buy directly based on the size.
This didn’t stump Lin Yu.
“Miss, I’ll pay first, and then let her try it on here.”
“Except for quality and size issues, we absolutely will not refund.”
“We want both the rem and the latest Hatsune Miku. Is that okay?”
With that said.
The sales associate naturally wouldn't refuse and agreed repeatedly.
“Xiao Lin, why don’t we try them on at home?”
“The size and material should be fine, it’s just about whether it looks good or not when worn.”
As for why she had to try them on here...
Of course, it was for eye candy!
Next was the welfare segment after the victory settlement.
How could he let Chi Qingchi close the door and try them on in her own room!
This little smarty, would she even let him see?
Clothes with so little fabric must be worn and seen promptly.
Who doesn’t like to see Hatsune Miku?
Who doesn’t like to see a maid?
“How could it not look good? What are you talking about!”
“You’re much better than those cosplayers online. You’re simply the best two-dimensional clothes hanger.”
“Beautiful clothes, of course, must be tried on promptly!”
“Ding!”
“Heavenly move! The splendid praise made the Hehuan Sect Bell Messenger feel a deep connection and regard you as a kindred spirit in the mundane world!”
“Reward: 20 Spirit Stones.”
“Hehehe, Xiao Lin, even if you say that, I won’t be happy.”
“Wait for me, I’m going to try them on now!”
Chi Qingchi hugged her desired clothes and skipped to the fitting room.
At the same time.
The system’s prompt sounded again.
“Ding!”
“Congratulations to the host for successfully completing the daily quest ‘Sect Treasure Garment (rem Cosplay Outfit)’, gaining 50 sect contribution and 20 Spirit Stones!”
“Congratulations to the host for successfully completing the daily quest ‘Sect Treasure Garment (Latest Hatsune Miku Cosplay Outfit)’, gaining 50 sect contribution and 20 Spirit Stones!”
“Congratulations to the host for successfully completing the daily quest ‘Spirit Tool Treasure (Aquamarine Colored Contact Lenses)’, gaining 50 sect contribution and 20 Spirit Stones!”
“Current Data:”
“sect contribution: 400”
“Spirit Stones: 360”
It felt good again.
Not just the monetary income.
But also the increase in sect contribution.
400 sect contribution points were enough for two consecutive draws.
While waiting for Chi Qingchi to change, Lin Yu opened the lottery interface...
