Chapter 48 - Chapter 48: Another Romantic Encounter

A week later...

Chu Yi woke up from his bed.

Looking at Lin Wanru, who was still sleeping soundly beside him, and the marks on her body.

A feeling of pride naturally arose within him.

This past week, they could be said to have been completely unrestrained.

Whether it was the second-floor balcony, the kitchen, the bathroom, or the living room sofa.

Occasionally, they even went into the courtyard.

Their footprints could be said to have spread throughout the entire seaside villa.

Because there were only the two of them in such a large room, Lin Wanru was no longer as reserved as before, but much more relaxed.

This gave Chu Yi a different experience, truly a feeling of peace and tranquility.

"Oh right, I should check the reward!"

This week, apart from eating and sleeping, they spent their time socializing.

It could be said that they basically had no free time.

It was only at this point that Zhou Yi remembered the system rewards.

[Ding! The host currently has 160 days of remaining lifespan!]

Looking at the lifespan that had increased by almost half a year, Zhou Yi nodded slightly.

Well, his hard work these past few days wasn't in vain.

With such a long lifespan, whether for exchange in the store or for contingencies, it's more than enough.

Besides that, there's also the favorability reward.

[Ding! Detected Lin Wanru's favorability has exceeded 60! Unlocked a brand new reward: Personal Space!]

[Current favorability: 80, maximum value 100!] ]

Chu Yi was still very satisfied with this reward.

After all, personal space was an essential skill.

Before, the money he earned was easy to manage; he could deposit it into his bank account.

But the antiques and treasures that the sycophantic group gave him were difficult to keep; he could only find a place to store them.

Moreover, he had to worry about whether they would be stolen.

Now with personal space, all of that is no longer a problem.

"However, this one cubic meter of personal space is a bit too small right now."

"I wonder if it can be increased later..."

In addition, because of the exchanges these past few days,

Peng Zu's health-preserving method has also been greatly improved, allowing Chu Yi's physique to advance further.

He felt a little guilty about saying he could do it three times a night before.

Seven times now wouldn't be a problem!

Even after the exchange, he could still be full of energy!

"Besides that, there's something else that's still worth paying attention to..." Zhou Yi stroked his chin, deep in thought.

That's the favorability rating issue.

After reaching 80, the favorability rating stops increasing.

He only had a rough guess about this.

He guessed that the amount of favorability increase could only be limited by a certain amount, so he should put more effort into it later?

But that's for later.

He'll think of a way later.

At this moment, Lin Wanru also woke up.

Seeing Zhou Yi and herself in their current state, she still blushed slightly.

After greeting him, she said, "Old man, today is the day Su Changhao is hosting his banquet."

"Shouldn't we tidy up a bit and get ready to leave?"

Zhou Yi nodded.

At this moment, a thought suddenly crossed his mind, and he cast a divination.

The divination surprised him a little.

"What's going on? I'm also destined for romance there?"

"Wait a minute, the divination also indicates that someone who is too clever will be harmed by their own cleverness, bringing suffering upon themselves?"

"And this, will it encourage my romantic luck?"

With the divination, Zhou Yi couldn't help but look forward to the banquet even more.

At this moment, Lin Wanru stood up and put on her clothes.

Looking at Lin Wanru's alluring back and graceful curves,

Zhou Yi couldn't help but have another thought.

So he chuckled and rushed over...

"Hey? You old geezer, what are you doing?!"

"Ah... Truly hateful..."

...

...

Meanwhile, inside the Su family.

Su Changhao glanced at his younger sister, Su Yuyan, then at a small bottle of medicine on the table.

His expression was hesitant: "Wouldn't this be bad?"

Su Yuyan snorted coldly: "Hmph, anyway, you and Lin Wanru are already engaged."

"What's wrong with using this medicine to make things work?"

"But I..."

"No buts! If you don't want to do it yourself, then I will!"

Saying this, Su Yuyan put the medicine away.

"Then, you just wait to reap the benefits!"

Afterward, Su Yuyan quickly left.

Walking along the road to the banquet hall, Su Yuyan suddenly remembered Lin Wanru's face.

Her beautiful face was instantly shrouded in a shadow.

"Damn Ye Nancheng, he dared to give such precious gifts to other women in front of me!"

"Since that's the case, then I'll make your dream lover belong to someone else!"

"Then I'll fill that room with cameras, filming the whole process from every angle, and send it to you to enjoy!"

Thinking of this, Su Yuyan couldn't help but feel smug.

It was as if she had foreseen the future.

However, she didn't know.

What kind of opponent am I about to face...?

Not long after, they arrived at the Emperor's Entertainment Club.

Zhou Yi followed Lin Wanru to this luxurious and decadent place.

The name "entertainment club" truly lived up to its reputation.

Not only was the decor extravagant, but it also had a bar, dance floor, and everything one could need.

As for what shouldn't be there...

It was probably all there, just not displayed openly.

However, Zhou Yi wasn't particularly interested in this.

After all, he had interacted with quite a few people these days.

Although his mental state was relatively good, he had basically entered a state of sage-like composure.

This made him appear quite otherworldly and detached.

As if he were a truly enlightened sage.

Passersby glanced at him in unison.

It wasn't because of his demeanor.

It was because of surprise.

Everyone who saw him had the same thought:

Damn, an old man over 80, and he's actually here strolling around the club?

Old man, you're quite the healthiest!

After only a few steps, the two encountered Su Changhao.

Su Changhao greeted them with a smile: "Wanru, over here!"

His eyes briefly fell on Zhou Yi, and he was momentarily stunned, then forced a smile: "Ah... Uncle Yi, you're here too?"

Zhou Yi chuckled: "I was worried about Lin's safety, so I came along."

"Young Master Su, you shouldn't mind, right?"

"Not at all! It's an honor that you're willing to come!" Su Changhao said with a smile.

However, despite his smile, he felt a little uneasy.

"My God, how did Uncle Yi get here too?"

"This time, our plan isn't going to be abandoned, is it?"

Uncle Yi's previous victory against three opponents was truly unforgettable.

Therefore, Su Changhao still remembers it very clearly.

He was waiting for a while, but he wanted to get down to business.

But with this old man beside him... could he still get things done?

Just thinking about that, Su Changhao felt a headache coming on.

At this moment, a charming female voice called out: "Su Changhao, have they arrived?"

The others turned to look.

It was Su Yuyan.

Seeing Chu Yi and the other person, she smiled and said:

"So you've arrived, then follow me, the banquet is ready!"

Then, she walked ahead, guiding the others.

Zhou Yi sized up Su Yuyan from head to toe.

Unlike the formal dress she wore at the Su family banquet,

this time, she wore a purple woolen dress, with sheer silk stockings and short boots underneath.

Long sleeves revealed her shoulders, and the short skirt hugged her hips.

Beyond the revealing outfit, her figure swayed as she walked, dazzling the eyes.

Her face subtly exuded a seductive charm.

Even Zhou Yi couldn't help but exclaim,

A breathtaking beauty.

No wonder the Dragon King had agreed to marry her.

"What a pity, the Dragon King couldn't even cherish her for three years, and after three years, he was kicked away."

"Let me do my best to help the Dragon King teach this demoness a good lesson!"

"Of course, it would be good to gain some lifespan as well."

Zhou Yi clearly remembered.

The system had previously said that because Su Yuyan was the Dragon King's former wife, at least in name.

Therefore, simply interacting with her would grant double the lifespan reward.

And if the interaction took place in a special location,

it could be doubled again, becoming a fourfold reward!

This truly made Zhou Yi envious.

"I don't know how I can win Su Yuyan over..."

"It's really a headache."

Meanwhile, Su Yuyan was quietly discussing with Su Changhao.

"Su Changhao, what's going on? Why is there another old man here?"

"You don't know, this old man isn't simple!"

Then, Su Changhao recounted the events related to Zhou Yi.

When he learned that Zhou Yi might be someone sent by the Lin family head to protect Lin Wanru,

Su Yuyan's delicate eyebrows furrowed.

"In other words, if we don't find a way to get rid of this old man, the plan can't be carried out?"

Su Changhao nodded: "That's right! That's why I'm also worried!"

Su Yuyan's beautiful eyes darted around.

"Yes, we should do it this way next..."
