I'm in Love Apartment, and the system is making me cultivate immortality.

Chapter 167 Cheating on Waist-to-Hips Ratio
next day
Gu Yifan got up very early as usual.

The main problem is that once you're awake and your energy is replenished, you can't fall back asleep even if you're lying down.

Ah, I really envy those people who can sleep in late.

Stepping out of the room, Gu Yifan found himself all alone. Zhanbo, the corporate slave who should usually be up and ready to go to work, had not returned home all night.

Gu Yifan sighed, realizing that he should have been a corporate slave like Zhanbo, no, an even more corporate slave than Zhanbo.

Zhanbo is at least a highly educated returnee from overseas. If he works hard for two years, he will gain more experience and his salary will continue to increase. In addition, he is hardworking and willing to work overtime.

The money he earns in a month is definitely considered a high salary among ordinary people.

Adding the next ten years, it will definitely be a golden decade for programmers.

Before watching Love Story III, Zhanbo had already become a senior executive in the company.

As long as Zhanbo knows how to save money, he will definitely have enough savings for retirement in ten years and won't have to worry about anything.

But even if an ordinary person works their whole life, they can barely make ends meet, far less than Zhanbo.

Gu Yifan was very glad that he didn't have to become such a beast of burden.

Yes, thank you Wanyu, thank you Xinling, thank you Nuolan, thank you Weiwei.

They made him who he is!
Gu Yifan opened the system interface.

Current system account balance: 4.36 million

Total rebate yesterday: 7890 yuan

[Yesterday's tasks completed: 4]

[Visiting Xinling in the hospital, bringing breakfast for Xinling and Nuolan, and helping Lin Wanyu gain recognition.]

[Rewards: 400% Knowledge EXP Card, 2 Originium, 'Voice Control' skill, Luck Boost]

Yesterday's rebate was less than 10,000 yuan, which was within Gu Yifan's expectations.

Aside from the two thousand or so from Xinling and the few hundred from Nuolan who brought breakfast, the rest came from the crab roe noodles last night.

This was unexpected for Gu Yifan, since two servings of crab roe noodles were for Hu Yifei and Zhanbo.

After a moment's thought, Gu Yifan understood.

His main purpose was for Lin Wanyu. The system only cared whether he spent money on Lin Wanyu, and did not care whether he gave it to others.
Besides this new discovery, Gu Yifan also noticed the daily task rewards from yesterday.

What does "improved fortune" mean?

Gu Yifan asked the system out of curiosity.

Next time, could you please include some explanation? This looks very basic.

Everyone's fortune is different; you can understand it as luck, fortune, or destiny. Besides the innate fortune, the environment also influences one's destiny.

Those with exceptional luck will have a smooth and successful life, while those with less favorable luck will face more hardships and difficulties along the way.

[Fairy Lin is a person with great fortune. The closer your bond with Fairy Lin becomes, the more you will be influenced by her fortune and receive a portion of it. Your luck will improve.]

Gu Yifan thought about it for a moment and roughly understood what the system meant.

Some people are unlucky; even drinking cold water can cause them to get stuck in their teeth, and they suffer misfortune for no reason.

Some people are lucky; they buy lottery tickets randomly and win a big prize, or when good fortune comes their way, they just happen to dodge a dump truck with a quick jump.

From this perspective, Lin Wanyu is very lucky; being born into the right family is a skill in itself.

Judging from Lin Wanyu's experience, she was born at the top of the pyramid and lived a carefree life as a young lady in the first half of her life.

Later, she ran away from home, met Zhanbo as soon as she got off the plane, came to Love Apartment, made a group of warm-hearted friends, and later went to Milan to study and founded her own fashion brand.

"If my luck improves, will it take away Wanyu's luck?" Gu Yifan asked again.

No, those with great fortune will also see their loved ones achieve success, bringing blessings to their families and friends.

"If I buy a lottery ticket now, will I be able to win the grand prize?"

"System, stop playing dead and say something."

【.】

"Okay," Gu Yifan said thoughtfully.

It seems the system can't directly measure fortune either; otherwise, there should be specific data instead of a rough estimate of improvement.

Gu Yifan took out the Source Stone with great anticipation.

Take a look at the results.

The two source stones were smaller than a fingertip, and looked like two irregular, crystal-clear diamonds.

"Hey system, are you sure you're not mistaken?"

Gu Yifan looked at the source stone lying in his palm and asked the system in confusion.

Why is it so small?
[Originium contains powerful spiritual energy, which can help you quickly increase your spiritual power.]

Saying it is the same as not saying it.

We've been tricked. The system didn't specify the exact size; it only used blocks to calculate it.

But upon closer inspection, Gu Yifan was surprised to discover that this was the only thing with spiritual energy he had found in this world.

Previously, whether it was the so-called elixirs or immortal food, it was just a system notification.

The spiritual energy seemed to appear out of thin air in Gu Yifan's body. If it weren't for the fact that his physical fitness had indeed improved, Gu Yifan would have wondered if he should also go to the Narnia Sanatorium.

Now, a second kind of thing with spiritual energy has appeared.

Gu Yifan was somewhat relieved that at least the system hadn't lied to him. If it had just given him two random pebbles and told him that these were the so-called Origin Stones...

But then, another question arose.

Where did this Originium come from?

The fact that it is rich in spiritual energy proves that the system is not talking nonsense, but that a world of cultivation truly exists.

Thinking of this, Gu Yifan suddenly felt uneasy again.

If the system only gave him two pebbles, it would at least prove that the cultivation world doesn't exist, and that all the changes in him were brought about by the system.

but now.
"System, does a cultivation world really exist?"

You are currently in an ancient coastal city on the Eastern Wilderness Continent!

"."

I'm too lazy to argue with the system.

Gu Yifan lowered his head, staring blankly at the two source stones. After a long while, he clenched his fist and put the source stones away.

He still cannot confirm whether the cultivation world truly exists.

Gu Yifan was worried that if the system discovered he was dressed incorrectly, it might actually send him there.

Get up and put them on again!

But worrying won't help.

The only thing we can do now is to try our best to improve our strength.

If the system ever discovers that it has a bug, it can kick him back to the cultivation world. At least he will still have some strength to protect him.

"Maybe I'm overthinking it."

Gu Yifan muttered something.

Just then, a voice suddenly came from above.

"What are you muttering about so mysteriously so early in the morning?"

Gu Yifan looked up.

Ms. Hu, with her long hair loose, was leaning her head against the railing, staring at herself.

At this moment, Yifei had lost some of the wildness she had when her hair was tied up, and gained a touch of languidness and charm, her beautiful eyes sparkling.

"nothing."

Gu Yifan quietly put the source stone back in his hand, intending to use it during his cultivation.

"What are you holding in your hand?" Hu Yifei was still not easily fooled, and asked with narrowed eyes.

"what?"

Gu Yifan spread his hands, his palms empty. "I was just looking at the palm lines."

"Oh, you believe in fortune telling?" Hu Yifei blinked, giggled, and turned to walk down the stairs.

"Well, I think I'm very lucky to be able to live in Love Apartment and meet such an elegant and generous counselor like Sister Yifei."

Gu Yifan joked.

Hu Yifei loves to hear nice things, and what if she decides to spare his life after hearing them?

At the same time, Gu Yifan's gaze lingered subtly on Ms. Hu's voluptuous figure.

To be honest, it feels really good.

"You're so glib, always saying nice things."

Hu Yifei was initially quite happy, if Gu Yifan hadn't ultimately added that 'counselor'.

"Since you can read palms, could you read mine too sometime?"

"sure."

Gu Yifan walked into the kitchen. The garbage from last night had been cleaned up, and there were still two servings of crab roe noodles left.

"Oh right, I ordered crab roe noodles last night. I was thinking of asking you to have some late-night snack with me, but how about we have it for breakfast?"

Gu Yifan suggested.

Lin Wanyu estimated she would sleep until noon, and Gu Yifan was reluctant to let her eat the leftovers.

Zhanbo, well, he won't be back anytime soon, so let's just finish him off together with Ms. Hu.

"I know," Hu Yifei replied casually, then added, "I saw the text message you sent."

"Oh."

Gu Yifan was still a little embarrassed. He was about to boil water to heat the noodles and then put the crab roe topping in the microwave to heat it up.

"Let me do it."

Hu Yifei stepped forward and said, "You're injured."

"Actually, I'm fine."

Gu Yifan persisted because he discovered that hot meals also increased spiritual food experience.

"Just go when I tell you to, stop talking nonsense."

Hu Yifei's pretty face showed more annoyance, and the two looked at each other.

Looking at Gu Yifan's face, Ms. Hu immediately recalled the scene from her dream last night.

They also made love in the living room.

The only difference is that the female lead was changed from Wan Yu to her.
A hint of panic flashed in Hu Yifei's eyes as she turned her head away. "Stop dawdling and sit down."

Gu Yifan also noticed Hu Yifei's gaze.

Panic, hesitation, and a fleeting hint of emotion. He was quite familiar with that look in his eyes now.

Damn it, could it be that Master Hu is actually interested in him?

No.
Gu Yifan prefers innocent and carefree girls like Lin Wanyu, and Xinling's well-behaved and generous nature is also good. He is even confident that he can control Nuolan.
Gu Yifan wasn't confident he could handle Su Fox and Hu Yifei.

Su Weiwei is cunning and resourceful, and she's also particularly good at judging people's hearts. You might even find yourself outsmarted by her.

Hu Yifei, on the other hand, is simply a tiger.
Gu Yifan is different from Teacher Zeng. Zeng Xiaoxian likes to be passive and be led around.

He'd rather be the one holding the reins than the one being led.

Unfortunately, such things seem to be beyond Gu Yifan's control.

Gu Yifan sat down and looked at Ms. Hu, who, when silent, exuded the air of a virtuous wife and loving mother, and shook his head with a sigh.

Who can blame him for being so outstanding and charming, winning over one beautiful woman after another?

There's no way around it; sometimes being too outstanding can be a source of distress.

Gu Yifan glanced at Hu Yifei, who was wearing a nightgown. The nightgown looked familiar. Was it the one the landlady wore?
It's a bit vulgar, though.

But when Hu Yifei bends over to wash the dishes, the curves of her hips, revealed by the loose fabric clinging to her hips, are indeed quite nice.

Otherwise, why would so many girls go back to the gym?

Gu Yifan felt that Ms. Hu's waist-to-hip ratio was simply cheating.

If I were to sit down, wouldn't it crush me?

Wait a minute, Gu Yifan shook his head.

Damn it, how did his brain gradually turn into the shape of that scumbag Lu!
It must be because I've been getting so many perks lately, it's making me so angry. That's just how hot-tempered young people are.

Just as Gu Yifan was pondering whether to eat an ice cream to cool down,

"Take your thieving eyes away."

Hu Yifei's soft voice rang out.

"???"

Holy crap, Hu Yifei cheated. How did she know she was being watched?
Gu Yifan suspected that Hu Yifei had some real skills.

"what?"

Hearing Gu Yifan's innocent question, Hu Yifei turned around and glanced at him.

"Humph."

Don't think she didn't see it; someone's gaze lingered on her chest for a few seconds.

Hu Yifei felt a little smug.

Her figure is something she's very proud of.

Although Wanyu is beautiful and innocent, does she have a better figure than her? And what can she do?

After Ms. Hu's warning, Gu Yifan put aside his random thoughts and started eating seriously.

He's been getting a little cocky lately, which isn't good.

Gu Yifan planned to go downstairs to the bookstore after finishing his meal, and he happened to have some time.

Moreover, the rewarded knowledge experience cards are useless.

During the meal, Hu Yifei exclaimed, "It tastes so good just from being reheated. This crab roe noodle soup is really good."

“Yes, Wanyu likes to eat it too.” Gu Yifan nodded.

Hu Yifei paused for a moment with her chopsticks.

Wanyu Wanyu!

Ms. Hu bit her lip, feeling a mix of envy, jealousy, and confusion.

She knew she was on the edge of a cliff, and if she wasn't careful, one wrong step would lead to an abyss below.

But sometimes my feet just don't cooperate.

Hu Yifei felt she needed to find a quiet place to calm down; perhaps she had just acted impulsively and would recover in time.

"I'm stuffed."

Gu Yifan looked at Hu Yifei, who had gotten up with little interest, and was a little puzzled. She had just said it was delicious, but now she didn't want to eat it anymore.

"You don't want to eat?"

"Leaving for school, what time is it? So much to do!"

Hu Yifei was conflicted, and her tone became harsh.

Did you take some gunpowder first thing in the morning? You were just having a good time a moment ago. Hu Yifei is so fickle.

Gu Yifan felt even more strongly that it was best not to provoke Hu Yifei, as she really knew how to use the "Flash" skill.

However, when it comes to school...

"That's right, Sister Fei."

Hu Yifei stopped and turned her head away from Gu Yifan. "What?"

"Didn't you tell me last time that you wanted me to help you? Do you still need me?" Gu Yifan asked after thinking for a moment.

The school seemed to be an important map as well, with many features only available after the start of the school year, which piqued his curiosity.

"No"

Hu Yifei instinctively wanted to say no, but then hesitated for a moment and nodded, "Wait until you're healed."

"okay."

When Hu Yifei finished tidying up and came out, she found that Gu Yifan was also walking out.

"Why are you going?"

“The library,” Gu Yifan shrugged.

Hu Yifei's gaze softened noticeably, and she smiled, "I didn't expect you to be so eager to learn. Let's go."

The two were traveling the same route, at least before taking the subway, so they naturally traveled together.

I passed by Zeng Xiaoxian's parking space.

"Hey, a Land Rover, that unlucky guy Zeng Xiaoxian's parking space is taken again." Hu Yifei glanced at the luxury car squeezed into Zeng Xiaoxian's narrow parking space and joked.

"Teacher Zeng's parking space?" Gu Yifan asked curiously.

"It's rented, I don't know what the point is. The parking space rent he's paid over the years is equivalent to the price of his Xiali car."

"You can rent parking spaces in the community."

Gu Yifan seemed to be deep in thought. He made an appointment with Su Weiwei to go out on the weekend to look at cars, as it wouldn't be feasible to rely on his own two legs for every trip.

I can ask Teacher Zeng how he rented the parking space later, and rent one too.

"What, you're thinking of buying a car?" Hu Yifei asked curiously.

"Yeah, walking alone isn't enough," Gu Yifan sighed, his feet rubbing.

"Buying a car when you're only a freshman?" Hu Yifei was very curious about where Gu Yifan got so much money.

Cyndi's medical expenses, the gifts for Wan Yu, and the expenses during this period.

Even if it was given to him by Nuolan, it's impossible for her to give him hundreds of thousands at once.

Previously, since they weren't very familiar with each other, no one had inquired about such a private matter. But now, Hu Yifei felt that her relationship with Gu Yifan was definitely close.

So just ask directly.

"You're still young, save some money you have, don't spend it all recklessly." Hu Yifei genuinely cared about Gu Yifan, but she certainly couldn't have guessed that some people could accumulate more money the more they spent.

Gu Yifan was already prepared for the question about his source of income.

"I know the money I've made from stock trading recently is alright."

The system happened to transfer money to Gu Yifan through this channel. A few hundred thousand or a million is nothing in a place like Shanghai.

In case Nuolan or Su Weiwei ask, it can serve as a shield.

However, Hu Yifei herself does invest in stocks, though not much. She was quite annoyed for a while recently because Lin's Bank's stock was down.

"Investing in stocks? Let me tell you, the stock market is risky, and you need to be careful before you enter the market. Although the market has been doing well recently, you still need to be careful and not lose everything."

"Don't worry." Gu Yifan smiled, then suddenly realized that in about six months, the seemingly thriving stock market would be facing a financial crisis.

Should we remind Yifei to prevent her from losing too much money?
Let's talk about it later.

Seeing Gu Yifan's dismissive attitude, Hu Yifei did not give up and even used herself as an example.

“I invested 50,000 yuan, and so far I’ve only broken even. When Wanyu’s company went down, I was so scared I almost sold everything.”

"Mhm." Gu Yifan nodded.

Seeing this, Hu Yifei frowned. This state was dangerous; she wouldn't listen to advice and thought she could definitely handle it.

How much money have you made in the stock market?

This question is a bit more private, but considering that it was Hu Yifei who asked it, Gu Yifan thought for a moment, scratched his head, and said, "A few million, I guess."

"Several million! We can't let our guard down. We should know when to stop. Wait, how much?!"

Hu Yifei was only thinking about how to persuade Gu Yifan, but she was a beat too slow to realize the number Gu Yifan was talking about.

"Several hundred...millions?!"

"Mm." Gu Yifan nodded.

"How many is it?" Hu Yifei asked cautiously.

".Four?"

Hu Yifei fell silent, looking at Gu Yifan with the eyes of someone looking at a monster.

"Not much," Gu Yifan said innocently.

Not much.

There are too many rich people in Shanghai. A few million yuan is only considered middle class, and you'll be rejected when you go to the matchmaking market.

But for Ms. Hu, it was already an astronomical figure.

The thought of how she had just been earnestly trying to persuade Gu Yifan made Hu Yifei feel so embarrassed that she wanted to cover her face and run away.

No wonder he doesn't feel bad about spending money.

Wow, he's earned so much money at such a young age. How old is he? In his early twenties, I guess. What about the future?
"Don't worry, Sister Yifei, I know there are risks, and I'll be careful," Gu Yifan said with a smile.

This is nothing; let's at least aim for a small goal in terms of assets first.

With this little money, it's barely enough to start a company; the initial capital is barely enough.

Subway station entrance.

He watched Gu Yifan wave goodbye.

Hu Yifei was somewhat confused. This guy was handsome, tough, and could make money.
Why couldn't God have given her a man like that?

That way she won't have to be so conflicted.
