Financial freedom starts with cracked apps.

Chapter 24 Little Chef

A one-day tour pass?

Lin Shen had reason to suspect that this "low-morality" app was monitoring his life.

Not only are the tasks he's about to go to all the places he's assigned, but even the props he uses are perfectly in line with his current actions.

Does this mean that cracked apps also have built-in user big data?
This was the only explanation Lin Shen could think of.

"Brother-in-law!"

Just as Lin Shen was pondering silently, Gu Wanting, who was not far away, suddenly waved to him and skipped over, saying coquettishly.

"Since you're out having fun, stop looking at your phone! Why not enjoy the scenery?"

"Ah."

Lin Shen wore a gentle smile on his face, but felt a deep sense of loss inside.

He and Gu Wanting had visited these places before, and every corner was filled with fond memories.

It seems to have been slowly fermenting within the folds of time, only to be revealed in surprising detail upon closer examination.

Lin Shen walked slowly around the Wukang Building. The road was lined with lush sycamore trees, and the air was filled with a refreshing fragrance.

Many people came to visit, laughing and searching for the best photo spots. The noise was deafening, but it did not prevent Lin Shen's thoughts from drifting away.

He took a deep breath and felt a slight tingling sensation spread from his heart to all parts of his body, then he smiled inexplicably with a sense of relief.

Fighting poison with poison might be a good way to heal emotional wounds.

"Brother-in-law, let's take a picture!"

Gu Wanqing was very smart; she understood everything after seeing Lin Shen's distracted expression.

He must have thought of his sister.

So Gu Wanqing quickly changed the subject.

"Go stand under that tree."

"..."

Seeing Gu Wanqing so excited, Lin Shen didn't want to spoil her enthusiasm for going out to play.

So, as she asked, he braced himself against the tree trunk with his left hand and subconsciously made a peace sign in front of his chest with his right, which drew a lot of criticism.

"Brother-in-law! Do all you guys do when taking pictures only know how to make a peace sign? Try a different pose!"

That's a really sharp critique!
Lin Shen felt offended, but he was powerless to refute it, so he could only put his hands in his pockets, lean against the tree trunk, raise his chin slightly, and look up at the sky.

His posture was that of a typical melancholic male god, which made him feel a little embarrassed when he was surrounded by onlookers.

How embarrassing!
Click——!
"This is right!"

Gu Wanqing walked up to Lin Shen and showed him the photos she had just taken.

Although I used an old phone, both the composition and the parameter settings were perfect.

"Not bad!"

Lin Shen gave Gu Wanqing a thumbs up.

"You're really good at taking photos!"

“I did my homework before I came.”

Gu Wanqing said with a smile, then handed the phone to Lin Shen.

"Brother-in-law, can you take a picture of me too?"

"it is good."

Unlike Gu Wanqing, who switched to professional shooting mode, Lin Shen only used the camera's normal mode to take pictures.

Moreover, he didn't know how to compose a shot, so he just took random pictures.

But Gu Wanqing clearly didn't care about any of that, and even praised Lin Shen's photography skills.

This made him blush slightly.

He knew his own limitations very well.

Before I broke up with Gu Wanting, we would always argue about taking photos whenever we went on a trip.

This made Lin Shen even somewhat reluctant to go out.

But Gu Wanqing was different.

She not only doesn't complain about anything, but she also gives you a lot of emotional value.

This pleased Lin Shen greatly.

It's definitely important to have a supportive travel companion when you're traveling!
So the two of them took pictures all the way, strolling to the City God Temple according to Lin Shen's planned itinerary, and bought ice cream, milk tea and other desserts.

"Brother-in-law, try some of mine!"

"Brother-in-law, are you hot? Here's a tissue to wipe your sweat."

"Brother-in-law, look! There's a foreigner! I'm going to say hello, and it'll be a good opportunity to practice my spoken English, hehe."

……

Seeing Gu Wanqing so lively and energetic, Lin Shen seemed to be infected by her, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously turned up slightly.

To be honest, he has rarely felt passionate about life since he started working.

He lived a monotonous life, going back and forth between two points every day, drifting through life in a daze, with no hope in sight. Even with the system, Lin Shen always felt as if something was missing.

Only now has he come to understand this through Gu Wanqing.

That's passion!
A love for life!

Perhaps I should rediscover those hobbies that have been worn down by work.

Lin Shen felt as if he had suddenly understood something, and felt completely refreshed.

"What do you want to eat tonight?"

The sun was setting, and dusk was falling.

6:30 PM.

As the daytime hustle and bustle gradually subsided, Lin Shen sat on a bench by the roadside, watching the pedestrians hurry by and the streets bustling with traffic.

He started thinking about what to eat for dinner.

I took Gu Wanqing to eat Hunan cuisine near my home at noon, simply because I was worried she wouldn't be used to the food in Shanghai, and also because I hadn't had time to plan it.

Now that I've spent the day sightseeing, it's time for me to do my part as a host.

However, Gu Wanqing's answer was beyond Lin Shen's expectations.

"Let's go to the supermarket to buy some groceries, and then cook them at home."

Gu Wanqing's profile seemed to be bathed in a soft glow from the setting sun, her long eyelashes fluttering, making her exceptionally adorable.

"I think the restaurants around here are all so expensive."

"can you cook?"

Hearing the surprise in Lin Shen's tone, Gu Wanqing smoothed the ends of her hair that were being blown by the breeze, turned her head, and smiled sweetly.

"Of course! I'm the one who usually cooks for my grandma at home!"

"You're so busy in your senior year of high school, do you even have time to cook?"

"Okay."

Gu Wanqing looked at Lin Shen with expectant eyes.

I want to cook for you!

"why?"

"Oh brother-in-law! Why do you always ask 'why'?"

Gu Wanqing was genuinely a little dizzy from Lin Shen's three consecutive questions.

"Just tell me if you want to eat it or not!"

"think."

To be honest, apart from his parents, Lin Shen had never actually eaten a meal cooked by anyone around him.

He used to do all the cooking at home; Gu Wanting rarely cooked.

Unexpectedly, Gu Wanqing took the initiative to suggest cooking.

"Just eat it if you want!"

Gu Wanqing said with a smile, which made Lin Shen smile involuntarily.

"it is good."

The two took the subway away from the bustling city center of Shanghai and arrived in the suburbs where the pace of life is slower.

After returning to their neighborhood, Lin Shen took Gu Wanqing to the supermarket for a big shopping spree.

Besides the dishes, I also bought a Coca-Cola and a lot of potato chips and snacks.

If you're going to indulge, then go all the way!
Although Lin Shen is past the age of enjoying snacks, Gu Wanqing is still around!

"Thank you, brother-in-law!"

Seeing Lin Shen carrying large and small bags, Gu Wanqing took one of them, her expression filled with gratitude and joy.

"You're too nice! I don't understand why my sister insisted on breaking up with you."

"Then you'll have to ask her."

Lin Shen is now able to accept reality calmly.

After returning home, Gu Wanqing changed into her home clothes and went straight to the kitchen.

Lin Shen originally wanted to lend a hand, but she forcefully pushed him away.

"Brother-in-law! Just sit on the sofa and wait!"

That girl!
Lin Shen smiled helplessly and looked at Gu Wanqing from afar.

Wearing an apron and tying her hair up, she transformed into a little cook, handling ingredients with remarkable skill.

He's obviously a veteran.

Lin Shen's worries dissipated considerably, and then a startling idea suddenly popped into his head.

Perhaps her younger sister, Gu Wanqing, would be a better girlfriend than Gu Wanting...
