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

Chapter 19 Lin Wanyu's Little Thoughts

After saying that, Zhanbo hurriedly ran off to see the bride.

He just said it casually.

But the speaker has no intention, and the listener has intention.

Only Gu Yifan and Lin Wanyu remained, staring at each other.

Seeing Gu Yifan's indifferent expression, a bold idea popped into Lin Wanyu's little head.

"Couples get half price and free utilities!"

For Lin Wanyu, who had fled in haste only to find that she hadn't brought much money with her, it was an absolute temptation.

Especially now that she realizes that without money, it's impossible to get by in Shanghai.

The more Lin Wanyu thought about it, the brighter her eyes became.

Finally, Lin Wanyu awkwardly moved to Gu Yifan's side.

"Gu Yifan~"

Hearing that cloyingly sweet voice, Gu Yifan shuddered. "Let's talk this out properly, don't be so saccharine."

What does "tea aroma" mean?

Lin Wanyu was bewildered, but quickly put the new word out of her mind. She blinked and whispered to Gu Yifan.

"Did you hear what Zhanbo said?"

"So?" Gu Yifan flipped through the black leather book the priest had given him.

He initially thought it was the Bible, but it turned out to be a script for hosting a wedding.

And
[You have obtained the Qingfeng Treasure Mirror, a handwritten cultivation commentary by the Four Symbols Immortals of Qingfeng Temple. Comprehension +1, Spiritual Power +1, and cultivation speed increased by 10% while observing while offline.]

[You have learned that cultivation levels in the Primordial Immortal Realm are divided into Qi Refining, Innate, Core Formation, Purple Mansion, Nascent Soul, Myriad Manifestations, Immortal Platform, Great Void, Desolate Saint, and Immortal Rank, corresponding to levels 1 to 100.]

Gu Yifan, "Level 1 Qi Refining"

【Spirit: 7】

[Physical Skills: 6]

【Charm: 8】

【Perception: 4】

[Evaluation: Obscure and Unknown]

Gu Yifan felt a growing pain in his teeth as he looked at the interface. It looked like one of those low-quality idle games, yet it had a level cap of 100.
The only commendable thing is that after he leveled up, each of his three attributes increased by one point.

Otherwise, this panel is simply unbearable to look at.

At the same time, Gu Yifan also felt that he seemed to have become stronger. Hmm, this time when Hu Yifei pulled him again, he was able to stagger a bit before being dragged away.

My thinking became sharper, as if I had drunk several cans of Red Bull.

At least the system is still usable.

[AFK: Spirit Energy +1]

This spiritual energy must be what's used for leveling up.

Gu Yifan seemed to be deep in thought. It seemed that his improvement speed was not slow. At this speed, it should take less than ten minutes to go from level one to level two.

Gu Yifan refused to use the system's shameful nickname.

"I want to ask you for a favor."

"No."

Before Lin Wanyu could speak, Gu Yifan resolutely refused and put the black book away.

The above process was very simple, and he wrote it all down.

"Hey!" Lin Wanyu said, hands on her hips, looking at Gu Yifan. "I haven't even said what I want to say yet."

The next second, Gu Yifan's angular face drew closer, his dark eyes staring directly at Lin Wanyu.

"Are you trying to fake being a couple to get freebies?"

Lin Wanyu: "."

She instinctively took a step back, avoiding direct eye contact with the rather imposing Gu Yifan. "How...how did you know?"

The moment Gu Yifan lowered his head, Lin Wanyu felt as if a deer was pounding in her heart.

Gu Yifan put his hands in his pockets, straightened his back, glanced sideways at Lin Wanyu, whose little scheme had been exposed and whose cheeks were slightly red, and resolutely refused.

"No, what if it gets exposed? Where will my innocence be then?"

He was still a young, unmarried man.

Previously, a female classmate wanted to hitch a ride on his electric scooter to class, but refused to pay the fare, saying that she was reluctantly becoming Gu Yifan's girlfriend and that he was getting off easy.

Gu Yifan deleted me from his friend list. What a joke! If I drive you around, I'll be your driver, and you won't even pay me? You're just after my body, dreaming!

Lin Wanyu was stunned.

She never expected Gu Yifan to refuse so decisively, let alone for this reason!

What a joke.

She's a young woman and she doesn't worry about her innocence, but this guy is?
I haven't even complained about you yet, and you're already complaining about me!

A surge of inexplicable anger welled up within him.

Lin Wanyu felt that Gu Yifan was her nemesis! He was sent by heaven to punish her.
I really wanted to turn around and leave.

But when she thought of her empty wallet, Lin Wanyu suppressed her impulse.

"Impulse is the devil, impulse is the devil."

Don't get angry, anger harms your health.

"What are you muttering to yourself? Are you insulting me?" Gu Yifan's voice suddenly rang out.

Gu Yifan tilted his head and stared at Lin Wanyu.

Lin Wanyu switched to a pitiful look, her beautiful eyes sparkling with pleading, and she clasped her hands together.
"Gu Yifan~ I really don't have any money on me."

Lin Wanyu's emotional journey is very simple.

Since everyone already thinks the two are a couple, why not take this opportunity to stage a fake couple act and enjoy the benefits of renting an apartment?

As for why she was willing to pretend to be Gu Yifan's girlfriend, Lin Wanyu had never even considered that.

Perhaps it was because of trust, or perhaps she felt that the two were friends, or perhaps Lin Wanyu felt that Gu Yifan, who had treated her so badly, couldn't possibly have any ulterior motives.

Human nature is always complex.

But if Lin Wanyu were asked to pretend to be a couple with someone else, she would definitely refuse without hesitation.

Therefore, people's thoughts are often very strange.

Once you accept a certain way people perceive you, you will unconsciously change yourself to become the person people imagine you to be.

If Gu Yifan had agreed immediately, Lin Wanyu might have felt a bit hesitant.

But his outright refusal provoked the young lady's rebellious spirit.

She insists on it!
In short, Miss Lin realized that she would have to tighten her belt for a while before she could find a source of income.

“If I pay rent to just one person, I won’t have any money to pay you back, and I’ll have to borrow money from you.” Lin Wanyu pulled out her trump card.

But it was useless against Gu Yifan.

On the contrary, what? Borrow money?! That's negotiable.

"I'll lend it to you."

Gu Yifan said that the tenfold return was still there, so what was he afraid of?

"You!" Lin Wanyu was speechless. Finally, she stomped her foot, pouted, and turned her head away. "Fine, I won't do it then."

"Oh." Gu Yifan nodded indifferently.

silence
It would be a lie to say that Gu Yifan had no feelings for the innocent and carefree Lin Wanyu, but their social status was an insurmountable barrier.

One is the heiress of a multinational financial group.

One was a penniless college freshman.

Even TV dramas don't portray it like this.

Lu Zhanbo, a computer science master's graduate from an Ivy League university, returned to China and started working at a major company. After a few years, he became a senior executive, making him one of the best among ordinary people.

But he and Lin Wanyu didn't end up together.

What gives him the right? Because of a system that's been misloaded? Because of his still-unclear identity?
Gu Yifan still felt that one should be more practical in life.

He didn't want to accompany the innocent and carefree Lin Wanyu as she grew up, only to be kicked aside when she became mature and composed.

It's cruel and realistic.

Therefore, Gu Yifan consciously maintained a distance between the two of them.
