I started as a spirited young man, and the system made me a male god.

When she saw Chen Fei's new hairstyle and new clothes, her eyes revealed undisguised delight, almost to the point of being drooling.

"Why don't you ask Fei Ge to help you pull it up? He's here right now. I'm putting on makeup, so I don't have time." Shen Shaoting didn't even turn her head, focusing intently on staring at the mirror.

A hint of shyness and hesitation flashed across Lin Jingyi's face, but she still looked at Chen Fei, blinking her large, bright eyes, which looked even more sparkling after applying light makeup, her gaze filled with a silent question.

Chen Fei didn't seem to mind at all, and nodded calmly: "Okay, let's turn around."

Lin Jingyi obediently turned around, facing away from Chen Fei, and lowered her head slightly, revealing her fair neck and back.

Chen Fei reached out and pinched the small zipper head, gently pulling it upwards. With a soft "whoosh," the zipper smoothly reached the top.

Almost simultaneously, a pleasant notification sound rang in my mind:

[Congratulations on gaining 210 charm points in the eyes of the charming Lin Jingyi. The system rewards you with 2100 yuan.]

"alright."

"Thank you, Brother Fei!" Lin Jingyi turned around, two blushes appearing on her face.

She moved closer and, in the dim light, examined Chen Fei's new look more closely, and couldn't help but exclaim in a low voice:

"Fei-ge, your new hairstyle looks really good, it suits you perfectly!"

The commotion startled Shen Shaoting, who finally put down her eyeliner and turned around.

When her gaze fell on Chen Fei, she was clearly taken aback for a moment, then exclaimed in an exaggerated "Wow!"

"Holy crap! Fei-ge, you're amazing! You're like a completely different person! I almost didn't recognize you!"

[Congratulations on gaining 176 charm points in Shen Shaoting's eyes. The system rewards you with 1760 yuan.]

The arrival of two consecutive charm points made Chen Fei even happier.

But he felt a little embarrassed by the two women's stares, so he touched his nose and changed the subject: "Alright, we're going for skincare, not shopping, so there's no need for makeup."

"Oh right, how could I forget!" Shen Shaoting suddenly realized, but after thinking for a moment, she said, "Never mind, I'm almost done. I'll finish my makeup while I'm at it, so I can take a selfie later."

After saying that, she immediately turned around and began to paint in front of the mirror with even more effort.

Lin Jingyi also seemed very excited: "Then I'll go touch up my makeup too, wait a few minutes!" As she spoke, she quickly walked to her pile of cosmetics and began to work.

Seeing the two of them like this, Chen Fei secretly groaned inwardly.

Based on his limited experience of waiting for others in his previous life and his understanding of the procedures for women leaving the house, these "a few minutes" and "immediately" likely meant a long wait of at least half an hour.

I miscalculated; it seems I arrived too early.

Chen Fei could only find a small stool, sit down, and start playing on his phone.

He planned to use this time to see how his newly released video was received.

The result disappointed him somewhat.

Aside from Kuaishou having a slightly higher number of views, Douyin and Xiaohongshu had very few viewers, and the number of followers on all three platforms remained unchanged.

"Maybe it's because it hasn't been posted long enough, or the account's weight is too low, and the system hasn't pushed it yet..." Chen Fei comforted himself in his heart.

After all, that's how the new media industry is; whether it becomes popular or not depends on the platform. Right now, all we can do is try our best and leave the rest to fate.

Chen Fei took a deep breath, suppressing his slight sense of frustration, and started browsing popular videos on the platform, thinking about his next video script.

However, after scrolling for a short while, the phone screen suddenly flickered, followed by a low battery warning.

Chen Fei frowned, somewhat helpless.

He looked up at Lin Jingyi, who was closest to him. She was facing away from him, carefully applying loose powder.

"Jingyi, do you have an Apple charging cable? My phone is almost out of battery."

Hearing this, Lin Jingyi turned her head and pointed to the bedside table against the wall. "Brother Fei, there seems to be one on the bedside table. See if you can use it."

Chen Fei thanked him, moved the small stool next to the bedside table, and after rummaging through it, he found the charging cable.

He plugged in the charging cable and only breathed a sigh of relief after watching his phone start charging.

This phone consumes an alarming amount of power, so I can't enjoy watching videos smoothly for the time being.

Chen Fei simply opened a shopping app and bought a phone he liked.

Now, I can finally get rid of the shackles of my phone frequently running out of battery.

After making the payment, Chen Fei felt much more at ease seeing that he still had more than 30,000 yuan left in his balance.

Just then, a faint sound came from the bed next to them.

A figure stirred slightly, seemingly unable to bear the heat, and threw off the blanket covering them.

Chen Fei glanced at it subconsciously; it was Jiang Xia.

She sat up groggily, her long hair a little messy, and habitually picked up her phone to start scrolling.

The light from the phone screen shone on her face, and also clearly illuminated her naked upper body.

She seemed completely unaware that she wasn't wearing clothes, or simply didn't care.

Chen Fei's gaze swept quickly across the scene, and he thought to himself, "Is everyone's nutrition this good these days?" He immediately regained his composure and focused back on Jiang Xia's face.

He was about to say something when he met Jiang Xia's lazy, raised eyes.

Time seemed to stand still at that moment.

There was no screaming or panic as expected. Jiang Xia looked at Chen Fei, then down at herself, her face still showing that sleepy, indifferent expression.

She spoke slowly, in an almost dreamlike tone, "Good morning, Fei-ge. Thank you for the snacks, they were delicious."

After saying that, she didn't even bother to pull the blanket over herself. She simply turned around naturally, presenting her smooth back to Chen Fei, and continued scrolling through her phone, as if she had just given a casual greeting.

Chen Fei was taken aback by her unusual composure, and then felt a wave of embarrassment.

He immediately turned around, facing the wall, no longer daring to look towards the bed, for fear of seeing something he shouldn't.

"All done! Fei-ge, we can set off now!" Shen Shaoting's voice finally rang out.

Chen Fei secretly breathed a sigh of relief, seeing that Shen Shaoting and Lin Jingyi were already ready.

One is hot and playful, the other is fresh and a little shy.

The three went downstairs, and the afternoon sun was a bit dazzling. Chen Fei subconsciously squinted, but a thought flashed through his mind.

He stopped and said to the two women, "Wait a minute, I'll get a taxi."

"Take a taxi?" Shen Shaoting was taken aback. "We can just walk. There's no need to waste money on that."

Lin Jingyi chimed in softly, "Yeah, Fei-ge, you can't spend money like that. We can walk there."

Chen Fei smiled but offered no explanation.

He wasn't doing this to save energy; he needed to validate an idea through the system.

If the purchase is within the other party's perception and expectations, can you successfully gain their favor?

It's like if a good friend treats you to a fancy meal that costs 500 yuan per person, you'll think that person is very charming.

But if this good friend is a rich second-generation, spending thousands of dollars on every meal, and when it's your turn to treat him to a lavish meal costing over 500 dollars, would you find him charming?
