"Senior, I had a great time with you today. It's getting late, so you should rest early. I'm going to bed. Goodnight~"
In the Gaojin College parking lot, Tang Yuan looked at the message Wen Muxue had sent him two minutes ago. He smiled indifferently, didn't reply anything, and directly exited Wen Muxue's chat page.
Tang Yuan didn't care about such small tricks at all.
In a normal, healthy male-female relationship, after a date like today, the two parties would usually chat for a long time after separating. However, Wen Muxuedirectly stifled the possibility of further communication between them with a single message.
If it were an ordinary guy facing this situation, he would likely feel regret, self-doubt, and anxiety, reflecting on whether he had done anything wrong during the date that displeased the other party, thus leading to a sense of gain and loss.
However, Tang Yuan, who was well-versed in the ways of a 'green tea' girl, didn't fall for it at all. He chose not to reply, using it as a countermeasure.
…
When Tang Yuan returned to the dorm with numerous stamp gift boxes, Guan Yuntao, the internet-addicted youth, was still playing games in the living room. However, this time he wasn't as engrossed as usual. As soon as Tang Yuan entered the dorm, he looked back.
"Holy cow!"
"Yuan Ge, why are you back?"
When Guan Yuntao saw Tang Yuan return, he didn't even bother playing his game, his words filled with surprise.
"Isn't it normal for me to come back?"
"What's there to be surprised about?"
Tang Yuan changed into his slippers at the door, saying with a chuckle.
"Hehe…"
"I thought you and Wen Muxue would…"
Guan Yuntao scratched his head, his smile a little ambiguous.
"You thought we'd go to a hotel and roll around in bed?"
"Please, we've only known each other for less than two days. If Wen Muxue was really that easy, wouldn't she have been taken down a long time ago?" Tang Yuan naturally knew what Guan Yuntao was thinking: "But then again, you're quite well-informed, kid. You even know who I went out with."
"Yuan Ge, it's not that I'm well-informed, it's just that you were too high-profile. The photos of you driving the red Ferrari LaFerrari Aperta with Wen Muxueleaving campus this afternoon have gone viral on the campus forum. It would be hard for me not to know."
Guan Yuntao spread his hands, responding with some helplessness.
"That much attention?"
Tang Yuan was stunned for a moment, his tone slightly surprised.
"More than just high."
"You can go check the school forum yourself when you have time. You're practically becoming the public enemy of all the guys; they're all practically sour like lemon spirits."
Guan Yuntao controlled his character in the game, found a restroom to hide in, and then stood up from his chair, scurrying over to Tang Yuan, his eyes full of gossip: "Yuan Ge, what's the progress between you and Wen Muxue? Don't worry, if you tell me, I definitely won't tell anyone else. My lips are sealed; nothing that goes into my mouth ever comes out."
"I borrowed her to take photos of the car, and she treated me to dinner."
"Our relationship is just that simple."
Tang Yuan glanced at Guan Yuntao, replying concisely.
"That's it?"
Guan Yuntao's expression was somewhat suspicious.
"What else?"
Tang Yuan shook his head, then picked up the stamp gift boxes and walked towards his bedroom: "Enough talk, I'm going back to my room to sleep. My back is killing me; sitting in that supercar is really uncomfortable…"
With a "bang," Tang Yuan closed his bedroom door, and only Guan Yuntao was left alone in the living room again.
"Sore back?"
Tang Yuan's last sentence was mumbled, and Guan Yuntao only heard it vaguely.
"What did he say in that last sentence?" Guan Yuntaofrowned, muttering to himself: "Something about 'doing' being uncomfortable?"
"Hmm?"
"Doing uncomfortable?!"
Guan Yuntao was stunned for a moment, then his expression instantly became exceptionally vivid.
"According to netizens, Yuan Ge and Wen Muxue left school at three in the afternoon. As of just now, there's been a full nine-hour gap. What kind of meal can last nine hours?"
"And just now, Yuan Ge's body smelled very fragrant, very much like the scent of high-end shower gel from a five-star hotel. It's highly likely he just showered, which is why he had such a strong scent."
"So…"
"There's only one truth to the matter, and that is Yuan Ge and Wen Muxue booked a hourly room!"
As he kept inferring, Guan Yuntao's eyes grew brighter and brighter. Finally, he trembled with excitement, feeling as if everyone else was drunk and only he was sober.
"Mom was right!"
"I really am the smartest baby in the world!"
…
Tang Yuan in the bedroom had no idea that Guan Yuntao outside the door had concocted such a dramatic story for him and Wen Muxue.
If he knew, he would only say: Please write the detailed plot of rolling around in bed and send it to me, thank you!
At this moment, Tang Yuan was busy unpacking boxes in his room. He took out all the stamps he had bought from Baoyin Zhai and arranged them on his desk from highest to lowest value.
"Hiss…"
"A little excited!"
Tang Yuan looked at the exquisitely crafted stamps, rubbed his hands, his eyes full of anticipation. Then he took a deep breath, focused all his attention on the stamps in front of him, and silently chanted in his mind: "Submit task."
[Congratulations! You have successfully completed Experience Task 2/5: Collect 10 Stamps]
[Grade Assessment: Pass]
[Congratulations! You have successfully triggered Newbie Benefit: Eighty-Fold Critical Reward]
[Congratulations! You are about to receive the following rewards: Physique + 8, 800 million RMB]
[Note: The Physique + 8 reward must be claimed within 24 hours. During the physique enhancement process, you will enter a deep sleep for 6 hours. Please allocate your time in advance]
…
As countless system virtual prompt boxes popped up in front of Tang Yuan, it meant that all 10 stamps Sun Fuzheng sold him were genuine.
"Physique + 8?"
"Holy crap!"
"The system even has this function?"
"Isn't this going to take off directly?"
When Tang Yuan clearly saw the system reward content, he was both surprised and delighted.
Compared to the item reward given for completing the first experience task, the Physique + 8 reward was clearly more tempting.
Because no matter how expensive a Ferrari LaFerrari Aperta is, it has a price. But direct physique enhancement cannot be measured by money, after all, the body is the most important thing, and money is ultimately just external.
"What is the concept of Physique + 8?"
"What is my current physique?"
Tang Yuan was a little confused. Logically speaking, when it comes to adding points, doesn't the system usually come with a data panel?
"Is it because it's the experience period?"
Tang Yuan secretly guessed in his heart, but he didn't delve into it. He would know what the concept of Physique + 8 was after the physique enhancement was complete.
"It's 12:17 now, 6 hours…"
"Enough!"
Tang Yuan calculated the time. There were nearly 9 hours until class tomorrow morning. Enhancing his physique while sleeping tonight was perfect.
Thinking of this, Tang Yuan's heart suddenly burned with excitement. He hurriedly walked out of the bedroom, quickly washed up in the bathroom, then returned to the bedroom, locked the door, stripped down to just his underwear, and directly burrowed under the covers.
"Hehe…"
"With this function, becoming a Master of Construction in the future is just around the corner!"
Full of anticipation, Tang Yuan selected to extract the reward on the system page.
The next second, Tang Yuan instantly fell into a deep sleep almost without warning. At the same time, an invisible force began to erupt within Tang Yuan's body…
