Chapter 1758 - 1759: Sudden Realization

Damn!

I was wondering why you hadn't moved for so long!

Turns out this guy spent forever looking for the start button!

Lin Xian rubbed his face, pointed to the left side of the steering wheel, and said helplessly, "The start button's over there."

Following the direction of his finger, the hired driver suddenly understood, "Oh oh! So it's here!

Man, no wonder I couldn't find it after searching for so long!"

The most iconic thing about a Rolls-Royce is the little golden figure on the hood.

As the car started, a Flying Little Golden Man slowly rose up from the front of the hood.

Half an hour later, the Rolls-Royce Phantom stopped at the gate of Purple Gold Mountain District.

"Bro, wake up!"

The driver said, gently pushing Lin Xian.

Lin Xian slowly opened his eyes and frowned. "We're here?"

The driver nodded. "Yeah, we're here!"

"Thanks!"

Lin Xian gave a slight smile, pulled out two hundred in tip, and handed it over.

"Bro, then I'll get going!"

Taking the tip, the driver smiled, pushed the door open, and got out.

Stretching lazily, Lin Xian couldn't help nodding in satisfaction.

The comfort of this car really is something else: the seats are as comfy as a sofa, and there's an automatically adjustable footrest under your feet, plus the suspension is just perfect.

Overall, this car pushes comfort to the absolute limit.

As for how the performance is after the mods, that still needs testing, but for now, it's more than enough for city driving.

He took the elevator upstairs and opened the door, only to see Zhuang Tong and Nie Qingqing in yoga outfits, doing yoga on the living room floor.

Seeing Lin Xian, Zhuang Tong exclaimed in surprise, "Baby, you're back?"

"Mm."

After changing into slippers, he asked, "Where are Uncle and Auntie?"

Nie Qingqing replied, "They went back yesterday!"

"So fast? Why didn't you keep them around to hang out a bit longer?" Lin Xian asked casually.

Hearing this, Zhuang Xing said helplessly, "I tried, but the two of them insisted on going back no matter what, there was nothing I could do. Oh, right, baby, I took a few bottles of your Maotai for my dad, that's okay, right?"

Lin Xian waved his hand and smiled. "It's fine, I basically don't drink that stuff anyway."

Seeing him sit on the sofa, Zhuang Tong stopped doing yoga as well. She obediently snuggled into his arms like a clingy little kitty.

Nie Qingqing hesitated for a moment, then also came over to the sofa, claiming the other side of Lin Xian.

Leaning against Lin Xian's chest, listening to the rhythm of his heartbeat, Zhuang Tong whispered, "Baby, where've you been these past two days?"

"Went to Yang City for a meal."

Lin Xian answered absentmindedly.

With a great beauty tucked under each arm, a fire slowly rose in Lin Xian's chest.

These last two days, that battle-five-scum Yan Xiaoman kept leaving him hanging every time, really quite a tease.

Add to that the booze he'd had, and he was starting to lose control.

Feeling the warmth from his palm, Zhuang Tong giggled foolishly. "Baby, you must've been pent-up these days, huh?"

Lin Xian gave her a light smack, hinting, "You know and you still ask! Have you been practicing these past few days?"

"Mmm…"

Zhuang Tong let out a soft breath, gently bit her lip, then slowly lowered herself.

Seeing this, Nie Qingqing's eyes suddenly went wide, and her little face flushed bright red.

The next day.

Early morning.

Woken by Dudu's milky, childish voice, Lin Xian slowly opened his eyes.

Sitting up bit by bit, he felt his waist and back aching.

Last night…

Was a little crazy.

And he had kind of underestimated the skills of the Golden Art Dance Major—partner dancing like that, a normal guy really can't handle it!

After getting up and dressed, Lin Xian went to the living room and made breakfast for Dudu.

This little thing has been growing like crazy lately, eating more every day, all chubby and round.

After his usual half-hour morning run, Lin Xian came home with a bag of breakfast.

Sitting on the sofa, he spread out the villa design drawings and floor plans he'd brought back yesterday on the coffee table, eating his breakfast while carefully studying the diagrams.

To do interior design, first you need a systematic understanding of the main structure of the house.

At the very least, you have to know which walls are load-bearing and can't be altered.

Of course, the design and floor plans are only for reference; the actual design still has to be based on the physical space.

Since the contract hasn't been signed yet, he set the villa renovations aside for now, and shifted his focus to the front-yard garden.

A 500-square-meter garden like this can't be wasted, it absolutely has to be put to good use.

First up: an outdoor swimming pool.

The pool can't be too big, or it'll take up way too much space. But it can't be too small either, otherwise

it loses the whole point of being a pool.

He thought for a moment, then temporarily set the outdoor pool's area at 100 square meters.

These 100 square meters don't include the area occupied by all the supporting facilities for the pool, like beach

chairs, smart constant-temperature equipment, and so on.

These numbers are just provisional, he might slowly tweak them later.

He kept working on it until after eight o'clock before Lin Xian finally went out.

Driving the Rolls-Royce Phantom into the Golden Finance campus instantly drew countless eyes.

Even though this car's shape isn't as cool as the Ferrari 812, that gleaming

Flying Little Golden Man on the hood is just way too eye-catching.

And that little golden man logo is really burned into people's minds.

Lots of girls can't tell different sports car brands apart, but the moment they see the little golden man they immediately think of Rolls-

Royce!

Lin Xian asked, "Are you full?"

Mu Wanqing picked up a napkin and wiped her mouth, giggling. "So full, I feel like I need at least half an hour

of cardio just to burn off the fat from this meal."

"Senior, your figure is already perfect. Even if you put on a bit of weight, it wouldn't affect anything at all."

Hearing Lin Xian's compliment, Mu Wanqing couldn't help but feel a burst of joy for no reason. Keeping her face calm, she asked:

"Really?"

"Of course!"

Lin Xian nodded, giving a firm answer.

Just so you know, Super Clear Glasses rated Mu Wanqing's figure at a whopping 95 points!

Her body proportions are already excellent, and with long-term fitness training, the aesthetics of each part of her body

are even a few points better than dance majors like Zhuang Tong and Nie Qingqing.

If she were a few centimeters taller, she'd basically be the perfect female figure according to Asian standards.

"Waiter, check please!"

Lin Xian snapped his fingers and instructed.

The waiter quickly came forward, handed over the bill, and said respectfully, "Sir, this is your bill.

May I ask, cash or card?"

"Card!"

This meal, including drinks and tip, came to a total of 28,091.

Right after he paid, the system notification sounded in his head.

"Ding."

"Congratulations to the host for triggering a Consumption Critical Strike rebate, amount: 140,095 yuan!"

Nice. Not only did he get a free meal, he actually made 110,000 on top.

And he'd noticed that the trigger rate of the 'Food Critical Strike' effect has a direct connection

to how tasty the food is.

Put simply, food that makes him feel happy is much more likely to trigger the effect.

Back at Golden Finance, Mu Wanqing waved at him and smiled. "Junior, don't forget to come

pick me up tonight around eight-thirty."

"Relax, I won't."

Lin Xian chuckled, then turned and walked toward the boys' dorms.

On the way, he took out his phone and dialed Zhang Mengyao's number.

The call was quickly picked up, and Lin Xian asked with a grin, "Miss Zhang, have you been missing me

the last couple of days?"

"Hmph!"

Zhang Mengyao snorted lightly, then said in a tsundere tone, "You finally decided to come back from Princess Yan's tender, gentle arms,

did you?"

The little girl's jealous streak was pretty strong—you could practically smell the lemon scent through the phone.

Lin Xian didn't mind, and said mysteriously, "When are you free? I've prepared

a surprise for you!"

"A surprise?"

Zhang Mengyao froze for a second, then said warily, "Men don't get friendly for no reason; either they want your body or your wallet. What are you

trying to do?"

"You."

Lin Xian replied with a wicked grin.

"You perv, your head is full of that kind of stuff all day long!"

After Zhang Mengyao grumbled at him, her tone shifted, and she asked expectantly, "So what's the surprise

then?"

Lin Xian laughed. "You tell me when you're free first."

Zhang Mengyao suggested, "The weekend? How about that?"

He did a quick mental calculation—Acquired was the weekend—so Lin Xian nodded. "Okay, then I'll

go pick you up at Jin University on Acquired."

The two of them flirted back and forth for a while before finally hanging up.

When he got back to the dorm and pushed the door open, he immediately heard Wang Zejing and Zhang Kai yelling their heads off.

"You idiot, why the hell did you go poke that Southern Giant for no reason?"

"Damn it, I didn't mess with it, it suddenly attacked me on its own."

"Fuck! My Scythe Dragon just died!"
