Lin Xuan looked at Lin Ya awkwardly.
He rubbed the tip of his nose, coughed dryly, and quickly said:
"Ah… cough, cough, I have a cold and a runny nose. All these tissues are from blowing my nose all night."
"Mm, hurry and eat. I'll get you some cold medicine later."
Lin Ya didn't think much of it. She put the tissues in the trash can, then walked to the bathroom in the room and washed her hands.
Lin Xuan stood there, watching her.
[Name: Lin Ya, Age: 26, System Score: 98, Affection: 90 (Life-and-Death Dependence)]
Wow!
Life-and-Death Dependence?
Lin Xuan swallowed.
Must confess!
Lin Ya was his destined woman!
But…
What to do if he was nervous?
Lin Ya dried her hands and walked out, looking at Lin Xuan in confusion.
"Xiao Xuan, is there anything else?"
After she spoke, she walked to Lin Xuan's bed and began to fold his quilt and make his bed.
"Sis…"
"Hmm?"
She looked at Lin Xuan in confusion.
"Well… I like you. Be my girlfriend."
What if it worked?
Lin Ya: "…"
She walked in front of Lin Xuan, looked up, tidied his bangs, and whispered, "I'm your sister. Don't get any ideas about me."
"Ding… Confession failed. As the target's affection for you has not decreased, the mission is not yet over."
Lin Xuan breathed a sigh of relief.
Then Lin Xuan shrugged: "We're not even blood-related."
"Hey! Have you no shame?!"
Suddenly, a girl's voice came from outside.
Lin Xuan looked over.
A young girl walked angrily towards Lin Xuan.
She was 1.68 meters tall, looked about twenty years old, had a ponytail, and two strands of hair hanging by her ears, giving her an extremely pure feeling!
Definitely a first-love face.
A blue and white school uniform paired with a blue knee-length skirt made her look incredibly pure.
"Ding… Oh no, a girl meeting the blind date criteria has been found. System score: 98. Given that the target has no parents, the meeting-the-parents step is skipped. Since the target's affection for you is less than 80, more rewards can only be obtained after a successful confession and increasing affection to 80. You currently have the following options."
"Option One: Confess. Since the target has no parents, there is no need to meet parents for dinner. Directly receive 100 million in cash upon success."
"Option Two: Give up. Reward: +10 million in cash, but the target will disappear from the blind date list and can never become your destined woman."
"Option Three: Consider it. Reward: +10,000 in cash."
She was Lin Xuan's younger sister, Lin Bing'er.
Lin Ya, Lin Xuan, and Lin Bing'er all grew up together in the orphanage and lived together after leaving it.
Lin Bing'er didn't have a very good impression of Lin Xuan because he was uneducated and useless. She felt that he was the reason her sister was so tired.
Moreover, her personality was rather cold and particularly tsundere.
Because her affection for Lin Xuan might not have reached 80, even if the confession succeeded, the reward wouldn't be as high as Lin Ya's, but once it reached 80 affection, the reward should be similar to Lin Ya's mission.
"Sis, ignore him. Let's go out."
Lin Bing'er walked over and took Lin Ya's hand, about to leave.
As she passed Lin Xuan, Lin Bing'er gave him a cold glance.
"Shameless."
She muttered coldly.
[Name: Lin Bing'er, Age: 19, Affection: 30 (Friendly)]
"Xiao Bingbing, then you be my girlfriend."
Lin Xuan grinned at Lin Bing'er.
Lin Bing'er: "…"
"Ding… Felt Lin Bing'er's anger. System Value +10,000."
"Ding… Lin Bing'er's affection for you +2."
Lin Xuan: ???
No way, this can even increase affection?
"Ding… Confession failed. As the target's affection for you increased, reward: 10,000 cash."
Then Lin Xuan felt his pocket become a bit heavier.
Lin Bing'er glared at Lin Xuan and said coldly, "Dream on, pervert."
The two girls walked out.
Lin Xuan shrugged.
Well, both failed.
But, not completely failed!
What if there was still a chance later?
"Don't be like that, Xiao Bingbing, Sis, both of you consider it. I'm fine with either of you being my girlfriend."
Lin Xuan said as he walked out.
"Hmph!"
Lin Bing'er gave Lin Xuan a cold glance and snorted, then picked up her bag.
"I'm done eating. I'm going to school."
Lin Bing'er said, put on her shoes, and walked out.
Bang—
The loud slamming of the door indicated her displeasure.
"Bing'er actually cares about you quite a lot. Don't mind her actions too much."
Lin Ya sat at the dining table and said to Lin Xuan.
"Mm, I know. This little girl is very tsundere. I remember when it was your birthday, Sis, she prepared a birthday gift for several months, and then deliberately had a delivery guy bring it over, making us think she just casually ordered takeout for your birthday gift."
Lin Xuan chuckled.
Lin Ya also smiled and nodded: "Yes, Bing'er just isn't good at expressing her emotions, and you, on the other hand, are too good at expressing yours."
Lin Xuan stood up and reached out to hold Lin Ya's hands.
"But Sis, I really like you. I want to be with you."
Lin Xuan genuinely liked her. He liked her the moment he saw her. Such high affection, so gentle and virtuous, she was definitely the best choice for a wife.
"Ding… Felt Lin Ya's shyness. System Value +20,000."
Lin Ya's eyes darted away. She quickly pulled her hands away, then took a photo from her pocket and pushed it towards Lin Xuan.
"What's this?"
Lin Xuan looked over confused.
"Your blind date later."
If there was anyone Lin Ya couldn't let go of, it was only Lin Xuan. He was uneducated and always causing trouble. Lin Ya felt that getting him married might make him better, as he needed to learn to grow up and take responsibility.
Although Lin Xuan was only 21 and a sophomore in college, in Lin Ya's view, it was about time. They could date first, then get engaged, and get married at 23, which was about right.
And Lin Ya happened to run a matchmaking agency, earning only a few hundred thousand a year. This house cost three million to buy, with two million still on mortgage.
Lin Ya always recommended girls she thought were very good to Lin Xuan.
Lin Xuan, however, raised an eyebrow!
Blind date?
It seemed Lin Ya and Lin Bing'er would be difficult to make his destined women in a short time. He couldn't just hang himself on one tree, could he?
He had to try a few more.
But this blind date had to have a system score of over ninety.
Then Lin Xuan glanced at the photo.
"Holy cow! Jiang Qingyue? Isn't this your best friend?"
Lin Xuan then quickly shook his head and said.
Lin Ya sat opposite Lin Xuan, nodded, and said:
"Mm, she graduated from Binhai Police Academy. She was the campus belle back then, and now she's a police officer. Both her father and mother are police officers, so they're a police family. Her family is also quite anxious and eager for her to get married. I've already arranged for you two to meet at the Fated Cafe at nine in the morning. After meeting, you'll go directly to her house to meet her parents. I've already bought the meeting gift for you."
"No, no, no!"
Lin Xuan shook his head repeatedly.
"What's wrong?" Lin Xuan asked in confusion.
"I've touched her butt. She doesn't have a good impression of me. Besides, we're not strangers, Sis. Do you really believe she genuinely wants to go on a blind date with me?"
Lin Xuan knew Jiang Qingyue, not very well, but he had seen her more than ten times.
This girl looked down on him because the original owner of this body engaged in all sorts of vices—eating, drinking, whoring, gambling—everything but drugs.
Jiang Qingyue always wanted to get him arrested and locked up for a few years so Lin Ya would be free.
Lin Ya said: "Her parents are quite anxious, and she's truly out of options. She came to me, wanting you to help her pretend to be her boyfriend to deal with her parents. She's so beautiful, are you sure you want to give up?"
Lin Ya's idea was simple: Jiang Qingyue didn't like Lin Xuan, but if they had a fake blind date and then pretended to be a couple, they would inevitably spend a lot of time together and often be intimate. What if they really ended up together?
Jiang Qingyue was a very good person. She believed that if Lin Xuan could be with her, he would definitely change for the better.
"Ding… You have triggered the mission [Blind Date with Jiang Qingyue]. After a successful blind date and meeting the parents for dinner, you can receive rewards. Mission Rewards: [Speaking of the Opposite Card], [Aston Martin One-77]. During the mission, a decrease in the blind date target's affection will not directly result in mission failure."
Holy crap!
A sports car worth nearly 50 million!?
"Alright! I'll go!"
Lin Xuan revealed a smile.
Must complete!
Lin Ya also showed a smile.
"Good. Your clothes are ready. I won't go. Just go straight there after breakfast."
Lin Xuan nodded.
You want him to be a shield against your parents, huh?
You better be careful not to get yourself involved.
Lin Xuan revealed a mischievous smile.
This girl always wanted to get him arrested, so he had to "thank" her properly.
