Financial freedom starts with cracked apps.

Chapter 115 upgraded to level 10, [Camera Album] version 2.0.
7:30 PM.
Qinhuai River.

The smoke cage is cold water and moon cage sand, and Qinhuai is near the restaurant at night.

During the day, there wasn't much of a feeling between the two sides.

However, once night falls, the banks of the Qinhuai River become a must-visit attraction for tourists in Nanjing, without exception.

Crimson lanterns hung from the eaves of the covered boats, and the carved and painted pavilions on both banks were bathed in a warm yellow glow.

The upturned eaves are outlined with gilded details, and the palace lanterns hanging from the corridors are adorned with colorful tassels.

The water rippled, and the figures were bright and cheerful.

Being here feels like stepping back into ancient times, with vendors and tourists everywhere.

Lin Shen led Qin Yuennan on a stroll along the streets on both sides of the Qinhuai River, his heart filled with countless emotions.

This scenery is so beautiful!
Of course, there are not only scenic views, but also people.

Many young women dressed in Hanfu gathered here, taking photos and checking in, their sweet laughter captivating.

Her cute and pretty appearance attracted Lin Shen's attention, which made Qin Yuennan beside her a little jealous, and then her eyes narrowed slightly.

"Do you think Hanfu is pretty?"

"not bad."

Lin Shen turned his head and met Qin Yuennan's cold gaze. He immediately suppressed his smile and quickly explained.

“I was thinking, if you wore the Hanfu they were wearing, it would look really good.”

"Then let's rent one."

Without saying a word, Qin Yuennan dragged Lin Shen to a relatively large Hanfu rental shop nearby, seemingly in a fit of pique.

You like looking at Hanfu, right?
Then I'll put it on so you can see it all at once!

At this time, there were already quite a few customers in the store choosing Hanfu.

Some of them sat in front of the makeup mirror, where the staff helped them with their makeup and styling.

It's important to know that makeup and styling are the most crucial steps in Hanfu photoshoots, taking approximately half an hour to an hour.

Because the overall makeup not only needs to match the Hanfu (traditional Han clothing), the selection of hairstyle and various head ornaments also requires great attention.

Most people can't handle such a complicated process; it has to be left to professionals.

After Qin Yuennan pulled Lin Shen into the store, she immediately crossed her arms and gestured with her mouth towards the surroundings.

"Choose one, I'll wear whatever you choose."

"Really renting it out?"

Looking around at the dazzling array of Hanfu, Lin Shen whispered a reminder.

"These have all been worn by other people. Aren't you a germaphobe?"

"A little, but it's okay."

Qin Yuennan looked completely indifferent.

"I don't take my clothes off and wear them against my skin, I just put them on."

"Right."

Lin Shen rested his chin on his hand and began to carefully select clothes from the hanger.

Given Qin Yuennan's aloof and elegant demeanor, wearing ordinary Hanfu would definitely not be appropriate.

She doesn't suit the cute and charming style; she should be the aloof and indifferent mature woman type.

Moreover, the makeup should not be too heavy, and the headdress should not be too many, otherwise Qin Yuennan's exquisite and beautiful natural face will not be highlighted.

After careful consideration, Lin Shen decisively chose a bright green, wide-sleeved shirt.

When paired with a ruqun (a type of traditional Chinese dress), it appears extremely elegant and flowing.

"This one."

"you sure?"

Qin Yuennan held up the ruqun (a type of traditional Chinese dress) that Lin Shen had chosen against herself, then frowned slightly.

"It doesn't look like ordinary Hanfu."

"Yes, it leans more towards the fantasy/martial arts genre."

Lin Shen explained with a light laugh.

“Sister Nan, when you wear this, you’ll look like a senior disciple from a prestigious sect.”

"Humph."

Qin Yuennan gave a soft hum, and after looking around, her eyes suddenly lit up.

"You'll wear it with me."

what?
Before Lin Shen could react, Qin Yuennan pulled him to the men's Hanfu rack and began to carefully select one.

Finally, she found a plain black horse-face skirt with white floral branches and flowers printed on the hem.

"Here!"

Qin Yuennan directly stuffed the horse-face skirt in her hand into Lin Shen's arms, and nodded with great satisfaction after comparing it.

"It suits you well, wear it."

"..."

Lin Shen held the horse-face skirt up to the mirror and compared it to his own height. His 182cm height was a perfect match for it, and the hem of the skirt just barely reached the ground.

Not bad.

Lin Shen's biggest dream after achieving financial freedom is to experience a life he has never experienced before.

Therefore, even though he had never worn Hanfu before, he was quite interested in this matter.

So Lin Shen called over a shop assistant, rented two sets of Hanfu, and went to the changing room to change.

Of course, saying it's a change of clothes is really just putting it on.

Because the horse-face skirt was relatively simple, Lin Shen came out of the dressing room before Qin Yuenan.

In an instant, many people in the store turned their attention to Lin Shen, watching him walk to the full-length mirror.

The clean shoulder line echoes the draped skirt, and the masculine tension of broad shoulders and narrow waist, combined with the cross-collar and cinched waist, makes the entire upper body appear incredibly broad and upright.

In addition, Lin Shen's wrists with slightly bulging veins and his cold, handsome jawline give him an air of authority that is also imposing yet retains a touch of youthful vigor.

Many young women dressed in Hanfu around them stared at Lin Shen intently, as if they were infatuated, their expressions filled with amazement and admiration.

After all, his well-proportioned figure was just too perfect for a horse-face skirt! Add to that the subtle, mischievous smile at the corner of his mouth, and he looked exactly like a lazy, carefree male protagonist from a novel.
However, Lin Shen herself didn't think it looked that good; it was just that the horse-face skirt was more flattering than loose casual wear.

"not bad."

Lin Shen flexed his wrists. At that moment, a shop assistant came over and asked if he wanted to put on makeup, but he was refused.

"No thanks."

Others might need to use makeup to cover up facial imperfections, but Lin Shen doesn't.

Because he is almost perfect.

With the added benefits of facial slimming exfoliation and revitalizing body lotion, Lin Shen's face, in terms of both contour and skin texture, can be described as flawless.

As for hairstyle, that's even less necessary.

Although it was night, the weather was hot enough.

Wearing a wig and a head covering is something most people couldn't stand.

Lin Shen originally just intended to wear Hanfu casually for fun, without needing so many complicated steps.

"Sister Nan is so slow."

Seeing that Qin Yuennan had not yet come out, Lin Shen sat on the steps at the entrance of the store and started scrolling through his phone out of boredom.

He opened the camera album app and uploaded the kissing photos he had taken that afternoon.

Could there be anything more fitting for the "sweet" theme?

[Upgrade Task: Please take a photo with the theme of "Sweetness" (Completed).]

[Reward: Camera Album lv.9→lv.10]

[Photography technology enhanced by 100% → 110%]

[Congratulations on successfully upgrading the camera album to level 10! We are now starting the version update.]

[Camera album version 2.0 update in progress...]

Finally, another app has reached level 10!

Lin Shen's lips curled slightly, a faint joy filling his heart.

He had assumed that the second cracked app to be upgraded to Lv.10 would be the first sports and health app to appear.

As a result, the task of "learning a sport I've never tried before" got stuck for a long time.

This led to the camera album eventually surpassing it.

【Ding--! 】

[Camera Album version 2.0 continues to serve you!]

[Update Announcement:]

[I. Enhanced photography and videography skills by 110% → 220%]

[II. "Background Template" upgraded to "Character Module": Permanent attribute buffs, including but not limited to, Constitution, Spirit, Kidney Strength, Charisma, etc., can be obtained by scanning photos and videos submitted to complete tasks.]

[Reward: New Camera Album Feature - Super Photo Editing AI*1]

[Upgrade Task: Please film a short vlog themed around "love in your youth."]

So many words!
Lin Shen couldn't help but complain in his heart, and then carefully studied the 2.0 update log of the [Camera Album].

Like Democrat, the first change was the permanent alteration of some of its minor features.

Low-level technology has upgraded from "industry analysis" to "industry planning".

The camera album has upgraded its "background templates" to a "people module".

Lin Shen studied it carefully and found that all the themed photos could be dragged and dropped into the People module.

[Sunset: Spirit Permanently +10]

[Youth: Physical Fitness Permanently +10]

[Animal: "Pet Affection" permanently increased by 20%]

[Food: Permanently enhances taste sensation by 20%]

As Lin Shen watched the various buffs popping up on the screen, he suddenly felt unbearably hot all over, and a strange sense of power surged up in his heart and gradually spread to his limbs and bones.

He quickly opened his personal panel, his eyes widening in surprise.

[Physical condition: 84/85 = 75 + 10 (Super healthy state, immune to minor colds, chronic diseases, etc., physical fitness comparable to that of a pilot)]

【精神：81/82=72+10（超级亢奋状态，免疫精神类疾病，可48小时不睡觉）】

[Charm: 80 (Average level 50, surpassing the average person by 60%, a male internet celebrity level that is one in a million)]

Height: 182cm; Weight: 78kg

"No wonder I felt so unwell all over; it turns out my various attributes had changed so drastically..."

Lin Shen murmured to himself, then began to study the newly updated feature of the camera album—Super Photo Editing AI.

Once opened, it's no different from regular Photoshop, except that the operation has been simplified.

Below, you can drag and drop photos; on the right are options that you can check.

It includes, but is not limited to, character enhancement, scenery beautification, video editing, GIF generation, and many other similar small functions.

What interested Lin Shen the most was the removal of mosaics.

Is there this function?
Lin Shen was genuinely surprised and carefully examined its description after clicking on it.

[Mosaic Removal: This function can remove any technological effects from images or videos, including but not limited to: beautification, waist slimming, face slimming, leg lengthening, etc. Please don't get the wrong idea; this function complies with relevant laws and regulations and is prohibited from being used for illegal purposes!]

whispering sound--!
Lin Shen curled his lip in disdain.

Why don't you call it "Technological Removal"?
If you have to use a whole mosaic as the name, who wouldn't have dirty thoughts when they see it!

Just as Lin Shen was curiously exploring the camera's photo album update function, he suddenly felt someone tap his shoulder.

At this moment, a young woman dressed in Hanfu mustered up her courage and struck up a conversation with him.

"Um...can we add each other as WeChat friends?"
