Chapter 198: Playboy Or Male Green Tea?

Ding!

[Little Dove’s affection for you +5.]

[Current Affection: 20.]

"Car?"

The girl stared at Shen Yu in disbelief.

"Why should we buy you a car?"

"Shouldn’t you be the one buying one for us?"

Although she was clearly mesmerized by Shen Yu, the girl still retained the last bit of her rationality.

"Why?"

"My father and mother worked so hard to raise me."

"And you want me to marry you without showing any sincerity?"

Shen Yu smiled.

"If it were up to me, I’d say a Maybach."

"What do you think?"

"If that’s acceptable, we can get engaged tomorrow."

He crossed his legs leisurely, wearing a playful smile.

"May... Maybach?"

The girl shook her head immediately.

"That’s too expensive."

Shen Yu suddenly grabbed her arm and leaned closer.

His strange, refreshing mint-like scent drifted toward her.

His lips curled upward.

"Sis."

"Don’t I deserve it?"

"You..."

The girl’s face flushed.

Ding!

[Little Dove’s affection for you +5.]

[Current Affection: 25.]

Shen Yu smiled.

"Well, well."

"If you think that’s too much pressure, we can forget about the car."

"But the house..."

"You’ll put my name on it, right?"

The girl stared at him.

Shen Yu continued without giving her time to respond.

"Also, you might not know this, but my parents never let me suffer when I was little."

"I was practically raised like a young master."

"I wouldn’t even use cheap wet wipes."

"So after marriage, I don’t think I should do housework."

"And whenever I wake up, there has to be food waiting for me."

"It has to be soft rice."

"What do you think?"

Shen Yu tilted his head and casually placed an arm around the girl’s shoulders.

The girl pressed her lips together.

Her body trembled slightly from excitement.

Yet her expression was helpless.

She looked as though she had no idea how to deal with this man.

The livestream barrage exploded.

"Damn! This guy is a brainwashing master!"

"He’s completely manipulating the bird girl!"

"666!"

"Is this really Shen Yu?"

"He’s deceiving an innocent girl!"

"Everyone, don’t imitate this unless you’re actually experienced!"

Seeing that the girl still hesitated to answer, Shen Yu’s smile widened.

Then he suddenly stood.

"Looks like you’re not sincere enough."

"I’ve already said it."

"The girls who chase me are lining up from Qingshan Mental Hospital all the way to Evolution Food Company."

"If you don’t agree..."

"I’ll go find Sister Lin."

"Sister Lin already told me that if I stay with her, I’ll have a Maybach within three days."

"And within five days, I’ll have company shares."

Shen Yu stood up and prepared to leave.

"For some people..."

He glanced back at her.

"It’s simply not worth wasting my time."

He walked toward the door.

For some reason, the moment the girl saw him leaving, something snapped inside her.

Her blood rushed upward.

A powerful sense of urgency surged through her.

"You!"

"Don’t go!"

Shen Yu stopped.

The girl hurriedly spoke.

"I..."

"I’ll ask my father."

"I’ll beg my father!"

"Isn’t that enough?"

Shen Yu turned around.

"What sincerity can you show me?"

"I..."

The girl bit her lip.

"I’ll have my father continuously place orders with your company."

"How about that?"

Shen Yu nodded.

"Okay."

The girl immediately relaxed.

But then she hesitated.

"Then..."

"Stay with me tonight."

She blinked.

Goosebumps appeared across her neck.

At the same time, the black feathers hidden beneath her clothing began to stir excitedly.

Shen Yu’s lips curled upward.

His expression became helpless.

"Look."

"You’re still being greedy."

"Sister Lin bought me a car."

"She never asked me to stay with her."

He sighed.

"It’s not as though I care about your little achievements."

"You..."

The girl hurriedly explained.

"You misunderstood."

"I just..."

"I won’t let you stay."

"Don’t worry about it."

"Whenever you have time, come and see me again, okay?"

The girl awkwardly stood.

Shen Yu shook his head like a heartless playboy.

"I’ll talk to you when I have time."

"Remember."

"The achievements must be delivered."

"As for whether you’ll be able to call me again later..."

"That depends entirely on your sincerity."

"Okay."

"Okay."

"Should I see you off?"

"No need."

"If you want to give me something, do it next time."

Ding!

[Little Dove’s affection for you +5.]

[Current Affection: 30.]

Bang!

The door to Room 514 closed.

The playful expression on Shen Yu’s face immediately disappeared.

Once he had walked far enough away from Room 514, he quickly patted his chest.

A satisfied smile appeared.

"As expected."

"There was a reason I dared to play like that."

First—

Lin Wan had reminded him to fully utilize his advantages.

And what exactly was his advantage?

He didn’t need anyone to explain it.

Shen Yu understood naturally.

Second—

Even while standing outside Room 513, someone with terrible hearing could probably hear the exaggerated shouting from inside.

"Will you agree or not?"

"Will you agree?"

"Say it!"

At first, Shen Yu hadn’t understood what was happening.

But after entering Room 514 and seeing the girl’s attitude, he immediately understood.

A simulated blind date.

And this was clearly a very unusual one.

"Fully utilize my advantage..."

"How fully?"

Shen Yu suddenly experienced an epiphany.

So that was why his earlier approach had worked.

He quietly stood outside Room 514 for a moment.

Then he muttered to himself.

"Didn’t expect it."

"I actually have the potential to become a male green tea."

He looked toward the elevator.

His expression gradually became thoughtful.

Near the elevator door—

Several black feathers had fallen onto the floor.

They were extremely obvious.

"Damn!"

"Damn!"

"Can Shen Yu really get through this?"

"Why?"

"Is being handsome really that powerful?"

"I think you’re onto something."

"What’s wrong?"

"Don’t you agree?"

"This world really does rely on looks."

"Otherwise, why would all the salespeople have to be handsome or beautiful?"

"I’m not even joking!"

"666."

"Here’s a piece of hot knowledge: the better the salesperson, the harder they work."

"Damn! You’re a genius!"

The livestream chat went wild as they watched Shen Yu walk out of Room 514 completely unharmed.

Inside the Jochi City Defense Department, Ho Yong was watching the live stream alone.

He couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"Thank goodness."

"These low-level NPCs still can’t resist Shen Yu’s charm."

He held a steaming cup of tea in his hands.

"Phew..."

He blew gently across the surface.

"This round should be cleared."

But just as he was about to take a sip—

A voice suddenly sounded behind him.

"But how is Shen Yu going to return?"

Ho Yong’s expression changed.

He immediately turned around.

At some point, a thin young man had appeared behind him.

He wore a black T-shirt and bell-bottom pants.

His hair was parted in the middle, and a pair of round-framed sunglasses rested on his face.

He leaned casually against the edge of the chair.

A faint smile played across his lips.

"Who are you?"

The young man raised his hands.

"Don’t be nervous."

"Your Lu Xian went to help my vice-captain complete an instance."

"So, as an exchange..."

"As the team leader, of course I should come and help you maintain this cooperation opportunity."

He slowly removed his sunglasses.

A pair of narrow, fox-like eyes appeared beneath them.

They carried a crafty, almost mischievous expression.

Ho Yong’s eyes widened.

"You..."

"You’re Jiao Kou from the Jiangnan Team?"

"That strange—"

Jiao Kou immediately waved his hand.

"Hey, stop."

"If you keep talking, I’m leaving."

Ho Yong swallowed.

"How did you get in here?"

"That’s not something you need to worry about."

Jiao Kou looked toward the live screen.

"Right now, Shen Yu shouldn’t need me to remind him."

"There are people guarding the elevator."

"With his intelligence, he’ll figure that out."

"The real question is..."

"How is he going to avoid Mo Xian?"

Jiao Kou rubbed his chin.

On the live screen, Shen Yu was standing approximately two meters from the elevator.

He looked slightly troubled.

Then Jiao Kou noticed the feathers scattered near the elevator.

"Feathers?"

"This is easy to figure out."

"Someone was obviously chased by that bird."

"Who?"

"Besides Mo Xian, who else was fighting that monster bird?"

"The elevator doors are closed."

"The feathers are outside."

"And if you look closely..."

"There are even claw marks on the elevator doors."

"Mo Xian probably escaped the chase and went downstairs."

Jiao Kou’s eyes narrowed.

"No."

"Shen Yu definitely knows."

"With Mo Xian’s temperament, regardless of whether he signed the contract or not, he’d probably hide inside the elevator."

"He’s waiting for Shen Yu to enter."

"Then..."

"Catch him face-to-face."

Jiao Kou clicked his tongue.

"A direct confrontation."

"I guess I’m no match for this team leader."

"What’s his ability?"

"Still needs to be explored."

He stared at the screen.

"How can Shen Yu lure him away and return to the third floor?"

At that moment—

Behind the tightly closed elevator doors...

Mo Xian was standing directly opposite the doors.

His eyes were cold.

He had already drawn a short, sharp knife from his pocket.

His body was slightly crouched.

The moment Shen Yu pressed the elevator button—

He would strike.

Even if Shen Yu didn’t die...

The knife would at least leave a hole in his neck.

"Damn scum."

"Since you refuse to tell me what happened at Hegu Village..."

"Then I’ll turn you into a corpse."

"After that, you can tell me with your own mouth."

"Just wait."

"Today..."

"You will die."

His vicious eyes remained fixed on the elevator doors.

It was as though he could see straight through them.

The livestream chat exploded.

"Holy shit! This bastard really wants to kill Shen Yu!"

"Why can’t they just clear the dungeon first and settle their differences afterward?"

"The people watching from outside are too naive."

"Once they leave the dungeon, the higher-ups can protect them."

"But inside the dungeon, who can control them?"

"Why does Mo Xian have such a murderous streak?"

"Where is the Feiha Team leadership?"

"Someone stop him!"

"Shen Yu, go back and ask Miss Birdman to escort you out!"

"Yes! Ask the bird woman for help!"

The urgent comments flooded the screen.

Shen Yu glanced at the elevator.

Then he looked toward the nearby door of Room 502.

The corners of his mouth slowly curled upward.

"I never intended to harm you."

"But if you insist on being aggressive..."

"Fine."

"I’m curious to see what exactly Peppa is."

His eyes narrowed.

"Mirror Flower, Water Moon."

Without hesitation, Shen Yu activated his skill.

He wasn’t going to play around with Mo Xian.

To deal with a powerful talent like Time Jump, relying on Miss Birdman wasn’t enough.

He needed his own skills.

The scene in front of the elevator began to twist.

Reality folded.

The corridor distorted.

And then—

Shen Yu suddenly rushed toward the elevator.

He pressed the button.

Ding!

The elevator doors opened.

At that exact moment—

A sharp sound tore through the air.

Whoosh!

A cold blade flashed.

Slash!

The knife instantly cut across Shen Yu’s neck.

Blood sprayed.

It splashed across Mo Xian’s face inside the elevator.

Shen Yu staggered backward, clutching his throat.

His eyes were filled with disbelief.

"You..."

Mo Xian’s expression was cold.

"Scum."

"I told you."

"You should’ve cooperated with my brother back then."

"You and Lu Xian both deserve to die."

"Why was it you who came out?"

"Why wasn’t my brother here?"

Blood continued dripping from Shen Yu’s neck.

Mo Xian didn’t even bother wiping his face.

He raised the short knife again.

Slash!

Shen Yu immediately reacted.

He pulled a serum from the psychiatric institute from his pocket and injected it directly into his neck.

The wound began healing at an astonishing speed.

The bleeding stopped.

The torn flesh rapidly closed.

Mo Xian’s eyes widened.

"Damn it."

"Damn it!"

"You can’t kill me."

"You can’t!"

Shen Yu stepped backward.

Step.

Step.

Step.

His gaze immediately locked onto Room 502.

Then he sprinted toward it.

Bang!

He knocked urgently on the door.

"Miss Peppa!"

"I brought you hot milk!"

"I’m here too!"

For a moment, nothing happened.

Then—

Bang!

The door suddenly opened.

A pair of hands shot out.

They grabbed Shen Yu’s arm and violently pulled him inside.

Bang!

The door to Room 502 slammed shut.

The corridor immediately fell silent.

The entire exchange had happened so quickly that it almost looked like an illusion.

Mo Xian stood outside the elevator.

He stared in astonishment at the place where Shen Yu had disappeared.

His expression became even darker.

"Damn scum."

"He actually has a healing item."

He looked toward Room 502.

"You think the residents of 502 can protect you?"

"Let me tell you."

"Even if those three birdmen appear today..."

"I’m still confident I can kill you right in front of them."
