Without waiting for Qiu Wanxi to finish speaking, Lin Yuan cut him off, “I didn't record a video nor was it a test of my influential family. Why do you think so? I'm not expecting your little brain to conjure yourself up as Mary Sue[1]. ”
"Then ..." Qiu Wanxi became even more nervous at Lin Yuan's words.
“It's very coherent because I think you're adorable and want to be friends with you, that's all. You can treat it as love at first sight, so, I devised a scheme to meet you. ” Lin Yuan looked straight at Qiu Wanxi with a shameless smile.
"Aah!" This answer really surprised Qiu Wanxi.
Qiu Wanxi's entire face until her earlobes turned red; her small hands tightened the grip on the corner of her clothes in such a way that her hands slowly turned white. At that moment, she did not realize how adorable she was. As she took off her costume, she was sweating all over her body. The patchy pants reveal her poverty along with her messy hair and frugal simple dress.
However, Qiu Wanxi did not think that Lin Yuan was lying, he subconsciously completely trusted everything Lin Yuan said.
“Friends...?”
Qiu Wanxi put her small hand into her pocket, and subconsciously they clenched tightly.
"Yes friends. Wh why? Am I not worthy to be your friend?” Lin Yuan pretended to be a little angry.
"Sorry! Pardon me! I don't! I just thought I wasn't funny at all!” Qiu Wanxi repeatedly waved his hand and apologized.
"No problem. However, you have no self-knowledge at all. ” Lin Yuan smiled and stroked his head.
Under the light of the sunset at night, Qiu Wanxi wiped the corner of her eyes, she looked up and smiled, "I'm glad to be your friend!"
The young girl's face was reddish under the splendor of the setting sun, her large eyes reflected a ray of colorful light like a black gem, and the smile at the corner of her mouth was filled with hope and youth.
Lin Yuan's heart skipped a beat. He didn't even hear the commands from the system.
Ding! Qiu Wanxi Excellence +20 points]
Ding! Reward 500 counterattack points】
"Wow! Qiu Wanxi is so funny! The host is awesome! He can get 500 counterattack points at once!” shen Lan exclaimed in Lin Yuan's mind.
Fortunately, Shen Lan had a melodious female voice, similar to Lolita's, and not that of a persecutor.
Lin Yuan was quite surprised. The higher the favorability value, the harder it is to improve. He did not expect just a few words from him would increase his liking by as much as 20 points. He also received 500 counterattack points.
Reference:
[1] Mary Sue (Mary Sue) is a character type. Often ordinary and low-level characters who suddenly become omnipotent and overly idealized. A category of female protagonists novels uses this theme as the basis of their plot where the protagonist meets a handsome-rich-strong man and stages the return of her life.
Lin Yuan was looking at the extremely beautiful Qiu Wanxi, thinking where to take her for dinner. However, Qiu Wanxi spoke suddenly.
“Then... I want to take you somewhere, is it okay?” Qiu Wanxi asked gently and carefully.
"Of course," Lin Yuan replied with a smile.
Seeing Lin Yuan's smile, Qiu Wanxi's throbbing heart became extremely relaxed.
Lin Yuan reached the neatly clean noodle shop following behind Qiu Wanxi.
Yes, that's right, Lin Yuan judged the noodle shop to be rather clean. It was only slightly better in terms of cleanliness than the roadside stalls at low prices and there was no permanent base.
"Boss, I want two bowls of dragon noodles, one bowl with two eggs, and the other bowl without eggs." Qiu Wanxi glanced at Lin Yuan who was sitting on an ordinary chair nervously, rushed into the kitchen, and said to the owner.
He blinked his big eyes only to see Lin Yuan looking at him with a smile but not speaking a word.
Although she felt very embarrassed, she still explained, "My mom taught me to hang out with someone you need to reciprocate."
“You invited me to eat delicious food, so I also want to invite you to eat..”.
“Although it may not be too good.but..but I can only buy this...”.
Qiu Wanxi looked at Lin Yuan timidly, her eyes filled with sincerity and shame.
"No problem. I'll love the food wherever you invite me. ” Lin Yuan touched his humble face, once again.
Even though he uttered a cliche and shameful sentence from Earth, when Qiu Wanxi heard it, she felt like she had eaten honey. She smiled happily and adorable. His two large eyes resembled a crescent moon.
Lin Yuan knew that Qiu Wanxi had told him the truth.
Qiu Wanxi only had 50 yuan in his body.
In the novel, Qiu Wanxi was diagnosed with liver disease when she was only six years old, and her medical expenses were several million yuan. It was a huge sum for an ordinary family. Even more tragic is that the old man who worked hard to save money for his treatment immediately got into a car accident, leaving him alone in the world.
She grew up alone with the pension, the tough challenge made her an adult, and she started working part-time. She often experiences things like wearing costumes under high temperatures in her part-time job.
The money earned from a part-time job was barely enough to cure his illness, but he was able to prolong his life for a while.
Despite experiencing so many hardships in his life, Qiu Wanxi was still very eager to live. She was a girl filled with hope for the future.
In the original novel, she became the second female hero under the circle of the protagonist. The description is not detailed. After all, urban romance writers foolishly write them without using their brains.
But after she got along with him today, Lin Yuan felt that the girl was full of hope, and was unexpectedly adorable.
"This bowl is for you," Qiu Wanxi pushed the dragon noodles with two eggs to Lin Yuan and kept the bowl to herself.
Qiu Wanxi was initially very worried. He was afraid that Lin Yuan, born into a luxurious and extravagant life, would drop his chopsticks and leave decisively. However, he saw Lin Yuan start eating with a smile.
She smiled sweetly and started eating. Although the cost of eating it is half of the cost of his monthly food.
……
"I don't think you're gonna eat." After eating, as Lin Yuan and Qiu Wanxi walked down the street, Qiu Wanxi said meekly.
"That's impossible; I love everything you invite." Lin Yuan laughed.
"However, if I don't eat, what will you do?" Lin Yuan asked.
Qiu Wanxi blinked her eyes and shook her head, “No.
“Maybe... I will cry alone and finish eating.” He thought about it and said.
"Stupid," Lin Yuan smiled and turned on Qiu Wanxi's head.
