I'm a sophomore in college, what the heck is this "male god cultivation system"?

Chapter 105 Japanese Food
Although the meal was Japanese, Chen Yan has always been averse to raw food. Therefore, in this meal reservation, apart from two plates of sashimi and one plate of raw fish slices, almost all the rest were cooked dishes.

The kitchen served the dishes quickly, and soon one dish after another was brought to the table.

The table was quickly filled with dishes such as matsutake mushroom soup, grilled golden snapper, Wagyu beef and mushroom noodles, yakitori, grilled pigeon leg, sakura shrimp rice, and sushi, along with some desserts.

Although the portions of each dish were small, there were so many dishes that we ended up having a fairly enjoyable meal.

Forty minutes later, the two had almost finished eating, so Chen Yan got up to go to the front desk to pay the bill, while Shu He quickly followed behind him.

"Mr. Chen, the total bill for this visit is 3855. You can follow our official WeChat account for regular perks..."

Shu He, who had been following Chen Yan, couldn't help but widen her eyes when she heard the number.

Although she knew from the decor and atmosphere that this store was a high-end establishment, she didn't expect the prices to be this high.

In her opinion, for the portion sizes of these dishes, a price of over 500 yuan was already a bit expensive...

In the past, when she and Wu You went out to eat, they would always choose restaurants that cost no more than 100 yuan per person. This time, however, they suddenly ate a Japanese meal that cost nearly 2000 yuan per person, and she was completely bewildered.

The waitress gently introduced a series of benefits, but Chen Yan had no interest in listening to her nonsense. After scanning the code to pay, he left the Japanese restaurant with Shu He.

If things were going according to the novel, he should be taking Shuhe shopping right now, using his formidable financial power to completely raise Shuhe's threshold for financial gain...

Chen Yan also wanted to do the same, since this method was indeed time-saving and labor-saving. Unfortunately, based on his observation, if he used this method on Shu He, he would not only be immediately rejected, but she probably wouldn't come to the photo studio again tomorrow.

After all, the other party's taciturn personality has an extremely strong "self-protection mechanism".

……

Underground Parking Lot.

"Where do you live? I'll take you there." Chen Yan started the car, looked at Shu He sitting in the passenger seat, asked for her address, and then drove quickly towards their destination.

Shu He's home is in an old school district, but the property management is quite good. You have to go through license plate scanning to enter and exit. Chen Yan was too lazy to go through all that trouble, so he parked the car at the entrance of the community and let Shu He go home by herself.

"I'll drop you off here." Chen Yan unlocked the car and said, "Send a message to let me know you got home safely."

"Oh, oh." Shu He nodded, her wooden behavior almost making Chen Yan think he was communicating with a human-machine interface.

'It's normal for friends to send each other a text message to let each other know they're safe, right?' With this thought in mind, Shu He started walking quickly towards her building.

As soon as she entered the house and exchanged a few words with her parents, Shu He took out her phone and sent a message to Chen Yan.

[Shuhe: I'm home. Drive slowly and have a safe trip.]

[Chen Yan: It's good to be home.]

Chen Yan: Then I'll drive home too.

'Sigh, was he waiting for my message the whole time?' Shu He pursed her lips and muttered with some annoyance, 'I should have let him know I was safe first.'

Muttering to herself, Shu He walked into the bedroom and glanced at the calendar hanging on the bookshelf.

'Work seven more days, and I'll save enough to buy sneakers.' At the same time, she thought of tonight's rather expensive dinner, pursed her lips, pondered for a moment, and whispered:
"I won't be able to have dinner with him anymore."

……

For the next three days, the two continued working in the same pattern as before. Of course, Chen Yan would also let Shu He leave work 20 or 30 minutes early each time.

After all, Shu He doesn't eat dinner, but he still needs to eat... However, ever since the first day, Shu He has always politely declined his dinner invitations, saying that "my parents cooked at home."

Chen Yan knew that the Japanese meal had stimulated Shu He... He had hoped to raise her threshold through the meal, but unfortunately, Shu He refused further invitations after realizing that their spending habits were different.

Fortunately, because Chen Yan's method of stimulating the threshold last time was a "subtle and gentle" approach, Shu He did not distance herself from him in terms of social distancing, even though she declined his invitation to dinner.

As a seasoned angler, he is confident he can catch a fish as long as it bites the hook.

……

Day .

"Chen Yan." Shu He looked at Chen Yan sitting on the sofa in the living room and called out softly.

"Oh, you're here." Chen Yan put the magazine back on the shelf and said, "Let's not take photos today. I'll take you to get a haircut and a new pair of glasses first."

"Huh?" Shu He was taken aback, but her work experience over the past few days made her subconsciously obey Chen Yan's words... After all, judging from the past few days, most of Chen Yan's instructions were correct.

When she saw Chen Yan get up and walk towards the parking lot, Shu He didn't have time to think and quickly followed him.

After spending so many days together, Chen Yan had gotten a little understanding of Shu He's personality... She was somewhat indecisive, so it was best not to give her a choice and just take action directly, and she would subconsciously follow along; but if she was given a choice, she would not know what to do.

Of course, this is on the premise that the matter is something that makes her lean towards doing it or not doing it... For example, if Chen Yan takes her to get a haircut, she might hesitate; but if he takes her to a bar, she would refuse outright.

"Where are we going to get our hair cut?" Shu He asked quietly from the passenger seat.

"It's a really nice barbershop, you can come with me." Chen Yan drove towards their destination with practiced ease.

This was the second barbershop he had heard about from Shen Dong. It was expensive, but the results were just as good... Previously, Chen Yan had gone there to get a haircut because he wanted to find the most suitable hairstyle for himself. Then, he used his [Change Hairstyle] ability to fix the hairstyle.

"How much nearsighted do you have?" Chen Yan suddenly asked a seemingly abrupt question while driving.

"Left eye 150, right eye 200, what's wrong?"

"If we're taking photos today, you'll need to change your glasses; these are affecting your image." Since he had decided to cut off the other person's silly bangs, Chen Yan naturally didn't want to keep these ugly glasses either, so he simply changed them as well.

Shu He, sitting in the passenger seat, was now somewhat at a loss...

'Replacing glasses and getting a haircut, how much will that cost...' Shu He pursed her lips.

Although she knew Chen Yan as she did, she was certain he would offer to pay. But she was already earning a good salary; it wouldn't be right to let him foot the bill again…
