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

Chapter 271 Expressing gratitude always requires concrete actions.

Gu Yifan had just arrived at the apartment building when he received a call from his sister.

"Where am I? In my apartment, where else would I be?"

"You just came from the TV station. Yes, I wrote that proposal."

"It's so late. Okay, I'll come pick you up now."

After hanging up the phone, Gu Yifan felt somewhat helpless.

It's easy to tell from Nuolan's excited tone that the program proposal he gave her had been approved.

In that case, let's go see Nuolan.

Following the address given by Nuolan, Gu Yifan found a small open-air tavern on the street.

"here."

Gu Yifan first heard a sweet voice, then turned his head and saw a familiar figure, so he walked over.

"sister."

"Sit down." Nolan had been waiting. After a while, a cocktail was placed in front of her. Her expression was calm as she pointed to the chair opposite her.

This doesn't quite match the excitement she showed on the phone earlier.

Gu Yifan was taken aback. Could something have gone wrong?
"what happened?"

But he saw that the older sister opposite him had a stern face and was staring at him intently.

"The program proposal you gave me was really completed independently by you. Don't lie to me, tell me the truth."

"I did it all by myself," Gu Yifan nodded.

After all, that show won't be available for several years. Why is he making it so early? Does he have the same idea as someone else?

Nuolan bit her red lips lightly, her eyes filled with complex emotions as she looked at Gu Yifan across from her.

"Don't look at me like that. So, what did Lisa say?" Gu Yifan felt a little uncomfortable under Nuolan's scrutinizing gaze and asked, spreading his hands.

"Come closer, and I'll tell you," Nuolan beckoned to him.

As Gu Yifan hesitated and approached a little closer, Nuolan unexpectedly leaned forward and roughly ruffled Gu Yifan's hair with her delicate hands.

"Ahhhh!!!"

Nolan finally couldn't keep up the act anymore; her expression became somewhat agitated, and even a little reproachful.

"Gu Yifan!!! You had such a great idea, why didn't you tell me sooner? And when did you become so capable!"

Nuolan was incredibly surprised to learn that the program's concept was indeed Gu Yifan's doing.

Gu Yifan finally breathed a sigh of relief when he got here. So, Nuolan's serious expression just now was all an act?

"Looks like the result was pretty good?"

Gu Yifan freed himself from Nuolan's hand and asked curiously.

Nuolan smiled, her eyes filled with tenderness, "Of course! You usually keep a low profile, but not only me, even Lisa praised your program planning!"

"This show of yours... it wasn't designed specifically for me, was it?"

Even though Nuolan already had the answer in her heart, when she saw Gu Yifan nod and answer correctly...

My heart still fluttered a little.

She was really happy.

Her smile was even more beautiful and touching, subtly conveying a sense of emotion.

"I told you, sis, don't scare me like this. You made me think that Lisa didn't approve of that program plan."

Gu Yifan muttered to himself.

He was frightened; who will pay for his emotional distress?
But before he could finish speaking, Gu Yifan's hand was tightly grasped by Nuolan, who said something softly.

"Thank you, Xiao Fan."

Gu Yifan paused.

Looking at the stunningly beautiful woman opposite him, he was extremely serious, and her eyes seemed to hold a clear spring, sparkling with tears.

Is she so moved by him that she's about to cry?

Not to the point.

"Why are you being so formal? Isn't it only right that I help you?" Gu Yifan said, slightly embarrassed, turning his face away.

"That's true." Nuolan chuckled, tilted her head and thought for a moment, "In that case, I'll take back my thanks."

"Don't bother me."

Once words are spoken, there's no going back.

Looking at Nuolan's eyes again, Gu Yifan knew that he had been fooled.

"Um... just a thank you?" Gu Yifan had his own agenda, while Nuolan was clearly moved.

Don't click on the reward now. When will you want it? Saying thank you isn't worth much. You have to do something practical.

"Pooh!"

Nuolan spat lightly, feeling a little flustered and shy under Gu Yifan's slightly burning gaze.

Xiao Fan is getting bolder and bolder!

But then again, isn't this exactly what she wanted?

But Nuolan certainly won't show it, giving Gu Yifan an opportunity.

Nolan tactically picked up her cocktail glass, took a sip, and remained silent.

Gu Yifan was a little disappointed. Fine, if I don't want to say anything, then I won't say anything.

He also pretended to pick up the menu.

"Don't drink." Nuolan raised her hand and took the menu from Gu Yifan's hand.

"Hey, buy me a drink, don't be so stingy," Gu Yifan said.

"You've been drinking, how are you going to get me home later?" Nuolan rolled her eyes.

Gu Yifan was taken aback. Should he take Nuolan back later?
In that case, it seems like he can take any reward he wants himself.

Thinking it over, Gu Yifan nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes, then I won't drink anymore, you can drink more."

It's easier to make a move when someone's drunk, isn't it?

"You little rascal!" Nuolan's pretty face flushed slightly; she could easily see what kind of scheme Gu Yifan was up to.

Gu Yifan laughed along, then crossed his legs and admired Nuolan's beautiful face.

"So, does that mean I might be able to see your stunning beauty on TV soon?"

This flattery was perfectly timed, and Nuolan was very pleased.

"Not necessarily, producing a show isn't that simple. But Lisa is already preparing to go talk to her boss."

That means there's a high probability of success.

"Oh right," Gu Yifan thought of something, "if they use my program plan, wouldn't they have to pay some copyright fees or something?"

"Of course." Nuolan nodded immediately. Although she gave the program proposal to Lisa, if it were actually used, she would definitely have to pay Gu Yifan a copyright fee.

Even without Gu Yifan saying anything, Nuolan would have helped him get it.

After thinking for a moment, Nolan finally couldn't contain her curiosity and asked, "How did you come up with the idea for this show?"

"Well," Gu Yifan had anticipated Nuolan's question, "didn't you say the program wasn't to your liking? I was thinking about it and then a brilliant idea struck me, so I wrote it down."

"What do you mean by 'thinking about it'?" Nuolan was amused by Gu Yifan's words.

"I'm asking you seriously." Nuolan felt that she had discovered a new talent in Gu Yifan.

She had previously worried about what would happen if Gu Yifan encountered problems in the stock market in the future, but now it seems that even if he works as a program planner, he won't starve.

“I’m serious,” Gu Yifan replied.

He can't very well say that it was inspired by a variety show from a previous life, can he?

Even Nuolan herself probably wouldn't believe it if she told the truth.

It's more like a flash of inspiration.

"After all, I'm a genius," Gu Yifan replied, boasting.

He thought Nuolan would laugh at him, but to his surprise, Nuolan hesitated for a moment, then nodded emphatically, "Yes, you are indeed a genius."

Otherwise, without any prior experience, she wouldn't have been able to independently plan a show that even a top producer like Lisa applauded.

He does have reason to be proud.

Putting everything else aside, the sense of accomplishment from just that sentence made Gu Yifan feel that the program plan he had spent two nights writing was worthwhile, and he was in a good mood.

"Sis, I'll feel embarrassed if you praise me like that," Gu Yifan said, scratching the back of his neck and pretending to be shy.

Nuolan's smile froze. "Fine, you're saying he's fat, and he's really getting out of breath."

"However, don't get too cocky. Lisa pointed out quite a few problems." Nolan decided she still had to put Gu Yifan down a bit, lest he become too arrogant and forget who he was.

“Lisa is a top-notch producer, and her advice is very useful. If you'd like, I can ask Lisa to guide you, so that you can design your future programs.”

Before Nuolan could finish speaking, Gu Yifan interrupted her.

"Wait a minute, who said I was going to design a program?"

"what?"

Seeing Nuolan's confusion, Gu Yifan said, "Anyway, I never planned to do this job professionally. I only started this program planning because of you."

"Once the show becomes a huge hit, you'll become a famous host overnight, and then I won't need to design any more shows, right?"

Upon hearing this, Nuolan was both touched and a little annoyed.

Such talent, is it really fair to just let it go to waste? That won't do.

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

"I really don't have any time," Gu Yifan protested. "I'm too busy with work at my company."

Nuolan knew that Gu Yifan owned a company.

Seeing his confident expression, Nuolan hesitated between Gu Yifan's talent and career, and could only say, "Don't be so sure of yourself. What if your sister needs good shows in the future?"

"Then I'll definitely serve you, sister." Gu Yifan's answer pleased Nuolan greatly.

In fact, Gu Yifan's decisive statement just now did not mean he would stop helping Nuolan in the future. How could that be? The system still has professional missions.

The main concern was that Nuolan would occasionally ask him for programs on behalf of Lisa or the station, so he made it clear in advance that he was very busy.

Not seen for a few days.

Nuolan became more talkative and brought up the topic of house renovation, wanting to hear Gu Yifan's opinion.

Unexpectedly, Gu Yifan immediately spoke up.

"As for the renovation, do whatever you like. I won't interfere."

It's as if he didn't spend five million to buy that house.

Nuolan found it both funny and infuriating.

It's like her husband only takes care of earning money and leaves all the housework to her; it's sweet but also makes her want to bite him.

"Then I won't renovate your room, and you'll sleep in a bare-bones room!" Nuolan said irritably. Unexpectedly, Gu Yifan smiled and said, "A bare-bones room is fine, I can still sleep with you."

Nuolan's face turned red. "Who wants to sleep with you? I won't."

Nolan drank five cocktails in a row.

Starting from the third cup, she got a little tipsy and her speech became a bit slurred.

Who can imagine how funny it would be for a presenter with a broadcasting voice to speak with a lisp?

After the fourth and fifth cups, Nolan's personality seemed to reverse, and she became like a child again.

She was making a ruckus, saying she wanted to be a big star, and then saying she wanted to be a full-time housewife and have Gu Yifan support her, etc., anyway, it was all on and off.

When Gu Yifan became impatient and stern, Nuolan became obedient again.

What a foolish older sister.

To stop Nuolan from wanting a sixth cup, Gu Yifan paid the bill for her.

When I got back, I found Nuolan lying on the table, almost asleep.

You might not feel much at first when you start drinking cocktails, but you'll unconsciously drink more and get drunk very easily, especially since Nolan's five cocktails are all different.

This is definitely too much to drink.

Gu Yifan didn't know whether he should lament Nuolan's poor alcohol tolerance or that she trusted him so much that she was completely unguarded.

"They really don't treat corn like food," Gu Yifan muttered with amusement, stepping forward to gently shake Nuolan's fragrant shoulder.

"Sister Nuolan, Nuolan, don't sleep, sleep when we get home."

Nuolan raised her pretty face, and looked somewhat dizzy, giving an irrelevant answer.

"Pah! I don't want to sleep with you, you bad guy!"

Gu Yifan:
Fine, I'll let it go since she's so happy today.

Gu Yifan turned around, squatted down, and was about to let Nuolan put her arms around his neck so he could carry her on his back.

This street is full of open-air pubs, so carrying someone in a princess carry would be too conspicuous.

The words are not finished yet.

A pair of slender, pale arms reached past his shoulders, their skin pressed against his neck, slightly cool, probably from the night's chilly wind.

Immediately afterwards, Gu Yifan felt a weight on his back as a hot, delicate body pressed against him.

She has a light, pleasant body fragrance.

"Go home," Nuolan whispered in Gu Yifan's ear.

"I'll go back now." Gu Yifan agreed perfunctorily and strode towards the end of the street to his parking space.

But Nuolan stubbornly repeated, muttering, "Let's go home, okay? Let's go home."

"Stop fooling around, we're walking." In the end, Gu Yifan gave Nuolan's shapely buttocks a hard slap.

To everyone's surprise, Nuolan fell silent.

A moment later, her slightly aggrieved voice, accompanied by a few drops of moisture, came from behind Gu Yifan.

"If you're lying, then why don't you live at home?"

Gu Yifan suddenly realized that when Nuolan said "go home," she didn't mean going back to her small apartment.

Instead, they asked him why he didn't go 'home'.

How should I answer that?

Gu Yifan remained silent.

Nuolan sobbed for a while, then leaned on Gu Yifan's shoulder and blew on his neck, making him shiver.

"If you keep doing this, I'll spank you," Gu Yifan threatened irritably.

To everyone's surprise, Nuolan chuckled and said, "I'm not afraid of you at all."

Gu Yifan sighed. Re-establishing his masculine authority was still a long and arduous task.

Nolan mumbled something vaguely, like a dream.

As we approached the parking area.

Gu Yifan felt Nuolan stretch her neck, bring her lips close to his ear, and whisper her name.

"Xiao Fan~"

"Ah."

"Will you always be so nice to me?"

Where has my mind wandered off to this time?
Seeing that Gu Yifan remained silent, Nuolan became as anxious as a wriggling maggot, twisting and turning behind Gu Yifan.

"Meeting, meeting, meeting"

"That's more like it." Nuolan was quiet for a moment, then chuckled. "You didn't see Weiwei's expression today; she was so envious!"

"And Lisa, humph, she definitely won't believe you designed the show, Xiao Fan. It's okay, I'll tell her tomorrow."

As she spoke, Nuolan hugged Gu Yifan's neck tighter, looking pitiful, and drawled out her words.

"cold"

"Who told you to wear such thin clothes in autumn? Didn't you know to put on a jacket? We're here."

Gu Yifan complained that girls only care about beauty and not warmth. He walked to the parked black Panamera, opened the back door, and wanted to put Nuolan down.

"Don't sit in the back."

How stubborn!
Helpless, Gu Yifan placed Nuolan in the passenger seat, and only then did Nuolan release her arms and sit up shakily.

Her delicate face was flushed with the rosy glow of intoxication, which extended all the way to her neck. Her eyes were somewhat dazed, and her messy hair hung down beside her face.

Even when drunk, she was still a stunningly beautiful woman, breathtakingly beautiful.

"I'm cold~" Nuolan pitifully opened her arms again.

"I give up, wait for me."

"Oh~"

Nuolan stared longingly at Gu Yifan, closed the passenger door, and walked around to the driver's seat to get in.

"What are you standing there for? It's not cold."

Gu Yifan glanced at Nuolan, thinking, "Why are you pretending to be a good girl now?"

Upon receiving permission, Nuolan immediately rushed over and hugged Gu Yifan's waist, as determined as a moth drawn to a flame.

"Don't drink so much next time," Gu Yifan said, gently stroking Nuolan's hair.

Nuolan remained silent, as if she had fallen asleep again.

Just as Gu Yifan was pulling Nuolan up and fastening her seatbelt with her eyes closed.

Nuolan blinked quietly, a gesture that Gu Yifan caught.

"Fine, you're pretending to be asleep?"

"Hehe." Having been discovered, Nuolan simply stopped pretending. Her face was still noticeably flushed, but her eyes were clearer, with a hint of starlight in her dark, bright eyes.

The atmosphere suddenly became quieter.

Then, as if skimming the water, Nuolan unexpectedly kissed Gu Yifan's lips.

Everything felt so natural, a spontaneous outpouring of emotions that erupted in the quiet car.

If Gu Yifan doesn't savor the experience, wouldn't he be letting Nuolan down?

So he accepted the belated 'thank you' without a second thought.

By the way, kissing someone who has been drinking wouldn't be considered drunk driving, right?

The thought flashed through Gu Yifan's mind for a moment before being forgotten.

Why are you still thinking about this at a time like this?

After a long while, Nuolan pushed Gu Yifan away a little, as she was a bit out of breath.

In the darkness, she quietly looked at Gu Yifan, her heartbeat calming down, and she felt a sense of satisfaction.

In the end, they took this step voluntarily.

"Have you ever kissed Su Weiwei?" Nuolan suddenly asked in a low voice.

Gu Yifan: "."

"What are you saying?" he asked, sounding a little guilty.

Nuolan was slightly annoyed. "As expected, there was something to it!"

Gu Yifan sighed helplessly, "We only kissed briefly."

Well, "shallow" doesn't have any special meaning; it's just like adding half a bucket—it's just a product name.

Nuolan's eyes flickered slightly, and she said softly, "Then...who do you think feels better to kiss?"

Although it was dark inside the car, her pretty face was burning hot, and it was clearly even redder.

How should Gu Yifan answer this question?

"Of course it's you."

Hesitation leads to defeat, and Gu Yifan isn't stupid.

Nolan was finally satisfied.

After all, she had long accepted that Su Weiwei would share Gu Yifan with her.

I accepted it back on that typhoon night.

But Nuolan was unwilling to lose to Su Weiwei, who was the one who had been with Gu Yifan the longest.

What Miss Lin who fell from the sky, what seductive vixen, get out of the way!

"This is a reward for you," Nolan said softly.

"Then, will I be able to gain more in the future?" Gu Yifan asked with a smile.

"Then it depends on your performance~" Nolan's barely roused spirits finally ran out, and her eyelids began to droop.

"You're not allowed to touch me while I'm asleep, understand?"

Gu Yifan waited for a while until Nuolan couldn't hold on any longer and fell asleep in the passenger seat with her head tilted to the side.

"I didn't hear you clearly, could you say it again?"

To be honest, Gu Yifan was still a little nervous when he did this.

However, Nolan was clearly asleep.

Gu Yifan hesitated for a moment, then sighed. Well, after all, he was still a gentleman and couldn't do anything to take advantage of someone in distress.

Start the car and head to Nuolan Apartments.

Gu Yifan didn't notice.

After the car started, Nuolan quietly looked up at him, her eyes filled with tenderness.
