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

"Life skills? And you can acquire them just by moving?!"

After carefully reading the mission instructions, Chen Fei's heart began to race.

I would have been satisfied with just gaining charm and turning it into wealth, but I never imagined there would be a quest that could also acquire skills. It's simply amazing!

Putting everything else aside, if you really get "master-level" skills, you can open your own shop and make a living.

Upon hearing the word "moving," Shen Shaoting's eyes lit up. She immediately pulled out her phone, flipped through her photo album, and held it up to Chen Fei's face.

"Brother Fei, you're looking for a place? What a coincidence! Look at this apartment I live in! Although the landlord is stingy and makes a lot of fuss, the price is really reasonable, and it's only one month's rent as deposit and one month's rent in advance!"

Chen Fei looked down and saw that the apartment in the photo was indeed very nice, with its creamy white decor and bright sunlight, a stark contrast to his current rental apartment.

"Okay, I'll go check out the apartment after dinner. Thank you for your help." Chen Fei nodded vigorously, accepting Shen Shaoting's invitation.

He couldn't wait to rent a place right now and experience the feeling of knowledge automatically entering his brain.

But seeing how quickly Shen Shaoting and the others wolfed down their food, he suppressed his eagerness and decided to patiently wait for them to finish.

Chen Fei ate while opening his phone and checking his account balance.

Since unlocking the system, I have received more than 7,000 yuan.

Although this is already a lot for a young man with a strong sense of purpose, whether he can rent the "80-point accommodation" required by the task is still unknown.

The four of them quickly finished their meal and leaned back in their chairs to rest.

A few minutes later, Zhao Zhihao got up first and stretched his limbs: "The live stream traffic was good today, I'll continue to live stream to earn money, and while I'm at it, I'll look for a new roommate. Contact me on WeChat if you need anything."

Chen Fei and the other two said goodbye to him.

Shen Shaoting quickly contacted the landlord and told Chen Fei:

"I've arranged to view the apartment with the landlord. Shall we head out now?"

"Okay!" Chen Fei readily agreed.

He is now happy to be with Shen Shaoting and Lin Jingyi because it is too easy to make money with them. He can see their eyes full of admiration for him just by treating them to a meal.

If you go outside, you can't so easily gain charm.

Back when I worked at the company, if I treated my subordinates to afternoon tea and the food wasn't good, they would complain about it behind my back.

Chen Fei was in a great mood. He followed Shen Shaoting and the other person for more than 20 minutes until they arrived at a residential area in an urban village.

This place is clearly more lively than where he used to live; the late-night food stalls have already set up tables and chairs, creating a bustling atmosphere.

"The landlord said he'll be there in forty minutes. Shall we go for a walk around the neighborhood first?" Shen Shaoting glanced at her phone.

"Sure, consider it a chance to familiarize yourself with the area." Chen Fei nodded.

Seeing that Chen Fei agreed, Shen Shaoting smiled slyly and pointed to the shop across the street with the "Elephant Billiards" sign, saying:

"Look over there! That's the billiards hall with the super cheap afternoon sessions, only 6.6 yuan an hour. Fei-ge, wanna play a couple of rounds? It's really cool inside with the air conditioning on!"

Chen Fei glanced at the slightly worn signboard and pondered for a moment.

Maybe by playing billiards, I can gain some charm and earn more money, which will give me more confidence when renting a place later.

Seeing how excited Shen Shaoting and the other girl were, he decided not to spoil the mood: "Okay, go ahead, it'll be good to enjoy the air conditioning."

The three entered the billiard hall.

The room was more spacious than I had imagined, with about twenty pool tables, most of which were occupied. The room was filled with smoke, and most of the occupants were young people around the same age as Shen Shaoting.

Shen Shaoting was clearly familiar with the place; she greeted the receptionist and skillfully opened the last empty table.

In an attempt to gain favor, Chen Fei bought three bottles of Red Bull from a vending machine and handed them to Shen Shaoting and Lin Jingyi.

"Brother Fei, why did you go to all this trouble to buy this? You're treating us to dinner and drinks." Shen Shaoting happily accepted it. "We'll be your sparring partners later, and we promise you'll have a blast."

Lin Jingyi accepted the drink with a look of surprise, but instead of drinking it right away, she took a straw, inserted it, and handed it to Chen Fei's lips: "Brother Fei, I've opened it for you, you drink first."

Their actions immediately attracted the attention of many young men.

As they watched the two strikingly different beauties fawning over Chen Fei, who had blond hair and a bowl cut, they couldn't help but think: Why is that?!

In fact, not to mention them, even Chen Fei in his previous life never enjoyed this kind of treatment.

When I was treating them to dinner, I didn't feel that way as much.

When they were in public places, the emotional value that Shen Shaoting and Lin Jingyi provided was particularly obvious, making Chen Fei feel secretly pleased.

And so, accompanied by the two beauties Shen Shaoting and Lin Jingyi, and amidst the envious gazes of many boys, Chen Fei walked to the billiard table in the corner of the hall.

However, to Chen Fei's surprise, offering Red Bull did not win him any favors.

Is it because you just treated someone to a whole poached chicken that you're no longer able to win their favor by offering them a drink?

"Brother Fei, shall we play a round? Jingyi will be the referee!" While Chen Fei was thinking, Shen Shaoting had already set up the balls with a smile, looking eager to try.

"No problem, we can watch Fei Ge perform again!" Lin Jingyi immediately took down the pole and handed it to Chen Fei.

Chen Fei snapped out of his daze, grabbed the pole, and felt that the atmosphere had been built up enough that he couldn't refuse.

But he had hardly ever played billiards in his previous life, and now holding the cue stick felt strangely awkward, as if his arm wasn't his own.

"Fei-ge, let's start!" Shen Shaoting leaned against the opposite table, smoking a cigarette and preparing to watch Chen Fei's ball skills.

Chen Fei bent down and clumsily set up a bridge, recalling the original owner's knowledge of billiards.

Aim, strike!

Although he had the knowledge, his cueing force was completely wrong. The white ball hit the pile of colored balls weakly, only breaking a few of them apart.

Even more embarrassingly, on his next shot, his hand slipped as he aimed for the contact point, and the clubhead slid off the top of the cue ball with an unpleasant "screech." A solid miscue.

"Oh my god, Fei-ge, this pole is so slippery, even my shoes aren't this slippery!" Shen Shaoting slapped the table and laughed loudly, while Lin Jingyi covered her mouth and laughed so hard she almost fell over.

Chen Fei shook his head self-deprecatingly, realizing that he was ridiculously bad at the moment, so he prepared to just give up and play casually, and then find an excuse to cover it up.

However, just as he relaxed his body and bent over again, something wonderful happened—his waist naturally sank to a familiar angle, his fingers on the bar automatically adjusted the force, and the trajectory of his forearm swing became stable and smooth.

boom!

With a crisp sound, the ball rolled neatly into the bottom pocket.

This feeling... is right!

Chen Fei was somewhat surprised. He suddenly realized that if he emptied his mind and body, the original owner's muscle memory would be awakened in this body!
