Damp Traces, Performance Fruit

"Close your eyes when it gets dark."

"Werewolf, open your eyes."

"It's dawn."

"Holy crap! How come I got killed again?"

"I'm the Seer. Trust me, Xiao Hao and Tang Song are both werewolves! Vote them out!"

The Wind Chasing Lightning Club was filled with a lively and joyous atmosphere.

After playing billiards and Werewolf Game for a while, Tang Song stood up from his seat.

I went to the bar, opened a can of Lychee Flavor Zhen Zhen, and gulped down a few mouthfuls.

Leaning back on the bar stool, I gazed contentedly out the window.

Located near a scenic area, the area boasts a beautiful environment, fresh air, and the occasional sight of birds soaring overhead.

Outside the light-colored glass, Cheng Qiuqiu and Moli sat together under a sycamore tree.

Cheng Qiuqiu held the guitar and strummed it every now and then, looking very excited.

Tang Song admired the sexy and alluring girl for a while, then threw the empty can into the trash can and walked out the door.

Upon hearing footsteps, the two people who were chatting simultaneously looked up.

Upon seeing it was him, Moli quickly stood up and greeted him Tian Tian.

Then, with a touch of playfulness, she added, "My Male God, I added you on WeChat in the group chat. Could you do me a favor?"

"Agreed!" Tang Song snapped his fingers confidently.

They called you so sweetly, we should give them that much face.

"Wow! Thank you, my Male God! Seriously, I'm a fan now. Your guitar playing is amazing! Your singing is super beautiful too, I love it!" Moli excitedly stepped forward and hugged Tang Song's arm, even daring to rub against it a little, and said contentedly, "Well, I'll go to the bar for some water first, you two can chat."

Seeing how sensible Moli, Tang Song casually took out his Mobile Phone and accepted her friend request.

Cheng Qiuqiu, carrying her guitar, nodded to him as a greeting.

Then, as if remembering something, she happily said, "Su Yu posted a demo of her new song on the fan forum. It's something she just made, and it sounds amazing."

"Oh? Let me hear it."

Qiu Qiu nodded, picked up her Mobile Phone from the seat behind her, and clicked play.

The demo is very short, less than 1 minute long.

"Su Yu's songs are always written according to her mood. It can be seen that she is very happy now. However, netizens have started to talk about her mysterious lover again."

When her idol was mentioned, Qiu Qiu's eyes instantly curved into a smile, a stark contrast to her previous aloofness.

After listening to it several times, Tang Song smiled and reached out to Qiu Qiu, "Can I borrow the guitar?"

"Here you go!" Qiu Qiu's eyes lit up instantly, and she handed it over with both hands.

She really wanted to hear the melody of this new song live.

I was hesitant about how to approach Tang Song before, but now I've finally succeeded.

Tang Song casually sat down on the wooden chair and gently plucked the strings of the zither with his fingers.

Soon, the melodious sound of a guitar drifted through the lush green courtyard.

The melody is light and lively, with a touch of beauty and longing, much like being in love.

As the dark clouds gradually dispersed, Si Si of golden light pierced through the gaps in the thick clouds, casting dappled shadows.

Looking at Tang Song, who was confidently and freely holding a guitar under the sycamore tree, Qiu Qiu's eyes revealed a bright smile, as well as deep appreciation and admiration.

Tang Song's guitar skills were good enough to form a formal band.

To be honest, she is even more attractive than her high school classmate Xu An.

They could totally debut right here; they'd definitely be a hit.

The guitar music gradually faded away.

Tang Song casually placed the guitar on the chair, stood up, and looked at Qiu Qiu in front of him.

Because we were so close, I could clearly smell her faint fragrance.

It wasn't perfume, but rather the smell of shower gel, skincare products, and laundry detergent mixed together.

It's very clean and smells great.

Qiu Qiu looked away awkwardly.

Tang Song smiled and said, "There's something I'd like you to help me with. Are you free now?"

"What's up?"

"The weather is beautiful right now. I'm planning to go to the Hutuo River to shoot a short video, and I'd like you to hold the camera for me."

"Of course," Qiu Qiu immediately agreed.

They're friends, so it's normal to help each other out.

"Let's go, I'll take you there on my bike." Tang Song pointed to the parking lot.

Qiu Qiu paused for a moment, then said, "I think I'll ride my own bike; it'll be safer that way."

She had never ridden on another boy's motorcycle before and was not used to such physical contact.

"It's okay, we'll just film a short clip by the river, it's very close." Tang Song took out his car keys from his pocket and shook them gently. "I heard you like the Mercedes-Benz R/R, you can give me a ride."

After saying that, Tang Song smiled and winked.

He'd never actually sat in the back seat of a girl before, and he was quite looking forward to it.

Qiu Qiu's face flushed instantly, and after a moment of silence, she said, "Then... then you can give me a ride."

We followed the clean stone path to the parking area.

Tang Song nimbly straddled the QQ, inserted the key to start the engine, and turned to say, "Get in, QQ."

After putting on her helmet, Cheng Qiuqiu hummed in agreement and carefully sat down on the back seat.

After hesitating for a moment, he still put his hands through the Tang Song and placed them on the fuel tank cap, maintaining a certain "safe" distance from the tank.

"Buzzing—"

With a smooth start and gear shifts, the BMW Double R accelerated out of the club gate.

Watching the two figures slowly disappear from sight, Liu Wenning, sitting by the window, clenched his fist tightly, feeling extremely frustrated.

He gritted his teeth, stomped his foot, and said angrily, "Damn bastard, so what if you have money? Deliberately trying to cause me trouble, making my life miserable, damn it!"

Zhou Dongbing was standing next to him, whispered, "Wen Ning, all five shows are over. Shall we head out? I'll have a drink with you tonight, and we can chat."

Zhou Dongbing has a somewhat reckless personality and often swears when he speaks.

However, since being detained once, he has become much more restrained in his behavior.

In addition, he had previously worked at Li Junyi's nightclub, so he was behaving exceptionally well-behaved today.

His thinking was simple: since he couldn't afford to offend them, he might as well stay away; as long as he could make money, that was all that mattered.

If you have any grievances, wait until you close the door and vent them slowly.

Liu Wenning let out a breath, his gaze shifting, and suddenly said, "Winter Soldier, let's disband the White Knight Band. I won't be doing any more commercial performances."

"What's wrong Wen Ning?" Zhou Dongbing's expression changed, and he quickly advised, "No, it's fine as it is now."

Apart from Cheng Qiuqiu, the other three are old friends who work in social media and live music performances.

Liu Wenning is the most successful among them, with a large fan base and frequent opportunities to perform at various venues.

Moli and he were in a much worse situation.

By forming this temporary band, we can occasionally earn some extra money and alleviate some of our financial pressure.

Liu Wenning pursed his lips and said, "A while ago, an entertainment company contacted me and wanted to sign me. Their company has some resources and connections in the film and music industries, so I plan to give it a try."

He didn't want to go before, since he was living a carefree life and didn't lack money.

Moreover, that fat and old artist director clearly wanted to sexually harass him; just thinking about it makes me sick.

However, after being provoked by the Tang Song several times, the anger in his heart was burning fiercely.

To get revenge, you must become stronger.

Liu Wenning decided to grit his teeth and give it a try; maybe he could really become famous?

When the time comes, the Honor of Kings will return and slap the faces of the Tang Song!

Because of the thick clouds in the sky, the sunlight was not intense, but rather had a unique gentleness.

The sky was gradually tinged with a gentle glow of orange and pale purple, painting a tranquil and peaceful picture on the vast expanse of the heavens.

A refreshing, moist breeze filled my nostrils, and lush trees swayed past me.

Sitting in the back, Cheng Qiuqiu took a deep breath, and her tense body gradually relaxed.

I twitched my nose and caught a whiff of Tang Song's fresh and pleasant scent.

I felt a little strange.

Even though he was wearing cycling gear, he didn't seem to have the same body odor as the others.

After staring blankly for a while, Cheng Qiuqiu's face turned slightly red.

I feel like I'm acting a bit strange today; why am I paying attention to all this random stuff?

However, there is one thing she has to admit: she doesn't dislike or reject the Tang Song.

Otherwise, I wouldn't have sat in the back seat.

As she relaxed her posture, some physical contact inevitably occurred between the two.

Cheng Qiuqiu's heartbeat quickened for a moment, but quickly returned to normal.

The dark gray ancient city wall came into view, and the car slowly drove onto the road along the Hutuo River.

The roar of the engine sounded particularly clear and rhythmic in the quiet afternoon.

As the car approached the intersection, it came to a complete stop.

A pair of bouncy, large D-cups gently pressed against his back, then immediately lifted him up.

Feeling the unique sensation behind him, Tang Song smiled broadly.

When I was with Ling Ling before, I didn't feel much because of my lack of talent.

Now I'm actually enjoying it.

Speaking of which, Ling Ling sounds like 00, Qiu Qiu sounds like QQ.

Judging from the characters alone, QQ does indeed appear fuller and more raised.

Hmm, those two nicknames make perfect sense!

Immediately, Liu Qingning's image reappeared in Tang Song's mind.

When I was in school, I often took her on my electric bike to wander around the county town.

I really miss her hands that tightly wrapped around me, and her unreasonable E-cup breasts.

This "White Moonlight" is indeed a darling of heaven.

She was already showing great talent in high school, with Youthful Appearance and Immense Cuteness and was one of the top students in the school.

It is loved by many students and teachers.

She has a clear and definite life plan, is mature and rational, good at thinking, and full of curiosity and exploration.

In her presence, Tang Song often felt his own immaturity.

Objectively speaking, the two of them are really from completely different worlds.

He studied hard, but in the end he only got into Yan City University of Science and Technology, an ordinary first-tier university.

While studying, Liu Qingning listened to music, read novels, daydreamed, and chatted, and eventually got into the top 2 university in Huaxia, Imperial Capital University, without any major issues.

During my university years, I also won the gold medal in the "Internet Plus +" Entrepreneurship Competition.

It was because she was too dazzling that Tang Song never dared to confess his feelings to her.

If it weren't for her line in the letter, "Let's each strive and meet at the top," he felt he wouldn't have been able to persevere for so long.

It can be said that the sentence she wrote on the letter in 2015 directly changed his senior year of high school, his university life, and his life.

"See you at the summit..." Tang Song said calmly in the wind, but his spirits were high.

The school uniform that let in the wind, the high ponytail, and the straight bangs on the back of the electric scooter have long been symbols of his youth.

The reason I haven't gone to find my White Moonlight is because of this obsession.

He wanted to become better and reach a higher peak.

I wanted to showcase his unique charm during my youth.

Tang Song raised his head and shouted into the evening glow.

A sense of sudden enlightenment washed over him, and his eyes blazed with intense joy and exuberance.

As dusk gently caressed the sky, the shimmering river surface was bathed in a golden glow.

The gentle murmur of the flowing river filled my ears, and the occasional clear chirping of birds drifted from afar.

The two were on a quiet path along the Hutuo River, with the twilight sky, the babbling river, and the shady trees as a backdrop.

I filmed a video of Tang Song driving BMW Double R.

He then watched some more first-person perspective videos before driving back to the club.

As it was getting late, the cycling group quickly began their return journey.

The convoy drove into the city.

Skyscrapers and bustling traffic once again came into view, and the noise and prosperity came to the fore.

Intersection of Tiyu Street.

Moli smiled and waved, winked at Tang Song, and said loudly, "My Male God, QQ, I have some things to do tonight, bye~"

"Bye-bye, drive carefully." "Bye-bye."

I watched Moli drive her Jinjira 300 and disappear around the street corner.

Tang Song turned to Qiu Qiu, "QQ, thank you for helping me film the video this afternoon. Let me treat you to a meal. What would you like to eat?"

Qiu Qiu hesitated for a moment, then said softly, "Um... thank you."

Finally, the two chose an authentic Chuan Province hot pot restaurant, which was also an old establishment that Qiu Qiu occasionally frequented.

Since it was Saturday night, and the area was a bustling commercial street, the store was packed with people.

The two waited in line on the benches outside for more than half an hour before it was their turn.

The rich, spicy aroma wafts up, instantly stimulating the taste buds.

Warm yellow light shines on the rustic wooden tables and chairs, and decorative paintings full of Chuan Province characteristics hang on the walls, creating a cozy and homey atmosphere.

The hand-stirred beef broth is spicy, savory, and fragrant, but not at all dry.

The dishes were all very fresh.

Crisp and tender tripe, freshly sliced beef, and smooth duck blood...

Dip it in the boiling spicy beef broth, and it's incredibly spicy and delicious.

In addition, Qiu Qiu also ordered some roasted meats and hand-whipped lemon tea.

It's delicious when eaten with hot pot.

The two ate and chatted.

Besides the Glimmer Coffee and motorcycles, we also talked about Chuan Province hot pot.

Tang Song then learned that Qiu Qiu's hometown was Rong City Chuan Province.

However, unlike the Chuan Province girl he had imagined who would talk about "labor, capital, and the mountains of Shu," she was clearly an introverted and quiet person.

Only when talking about Su Yu does she become cheerful and bright, as if she has become a different person.

In fact, the reason why Tang Song had Good impression for her was because of this.

Besides her figure and appearance, Su Yu was also a factor.

As the two walked out of the hot pot restaurant.

It had gotten completely dark.

Neat streets, bright streetlights, flashing neon lights, and bustling crowds.

A gentle breeze blew in on a summer night, and the smell of hot pot lingered in the air.

Tang Song took a deep breath and Mo Mo felt the warmth of human life at this moment.

Qiu Qiu stared at his profile for a moment, then said, "Thank you for the treat. I'll treat you to a meal sometime."

"Oh?" Tang Song raised an eyebrow and smiled, "When will there be an opportunity? QQ, you're not just being polite, are you?"

Under the warm light, Cheng Qiuqiu blushed and stammered, "No... then let's do it next time on a motorcycle trip."

She was just being polite, she didn't expect Tang Song to be so direct, which made her feel very embarrassed.

"Pfft—" Tang Song chuckled, patted her on the head, waved goodbye, and said, "Bye-bye, be careful on the road."

After saying that, Tang Song hopped on his Ninja 400 and started the engine.

The motorcycle headlights shone brightly, slowly blending into the night.

Looking at his handsome back, I felt his spirited demeanor and Clear Breeze, Bright Moon.

Cheng Qiuqiu was slightly dazed.

She probably knows why she doesn't mind being in contact with him.

Besides the Good impression shown by Su Yu's previous support, there was also the guitar performance today.

More than anything, it was his vibrant and infectious energy.

Just like Senior Schoolmate Gao Mengting, she can let the sunshine warm her gloomy and empty heart, making her feel very comfortable.

The wind brushed against my cheeks, and the roar of the engine seemed to still echo in my ears.

Cheng Qiuqiu shook her head, her long orange-brown hair fluttering gently.

Wearing a helmet, I drove my Suzuki GSX250 towards Zhu Xi Residential Area.

"Squeak—"

The door to 1202 was gently pulled open, and the living room was brightly lit.

Cheng Qiuqiu changed into slippers and walked into the living room.

I turned on the floor fan and picked up the water glass on the table to take a sip.

Footsteps approached.

Cheng Qiuqiu turned around and saw Gao Mengting walking out of the master bedroom.

Gao Mengting smiled gently, "You're back a little late today. Didn't you say you'd be home before 7?"

"I had dinner with friends today, so I was a little late."

Gao Mengting sniffed the air. "Oh, so they went to eat hot pot."

Cheng Qiuqiu put down her water glass and sniffed herself.

Besides the smell of sweat, there was also a strong smell of beef tallow broth, which was truly indescribable.

Her face flushed red, and she quickly stood up. "Senior Schoolmate, I'm going to take a shower first."

After saying that, she went into the bedroom, grabbed a bath towel, and quickly went to the bathroom.

Soon, one piece of clothing after another was taken off.

Lifting her leg and taking off her inner layer, Cheng Qiuqiu was about to put it in the small basin when her gaze suddenly paused.

There were some barely noticeable marks on the pink underwear.

She gently touched it, and her mouth gradually opened wide, her expression very strange.

"What... what's going on?"

Yanjing Sky City.

Tang Song parked his motorcycle and hummed a song as he returned to his spacious apartment.

I picked up the glass, put in a few ice cubes, and poured in half a glass of Macallan Whiskey.

Tang Song leaned back on the sofa and raised his glass to drink alone.

After being cooled with ice, the wine has a subtle aroma and a smooth, refreshing taste.

"Ding! Congratulations, player, you have completed the challenge mission [Full of Spirit]."

Immediately afterwards, a faint light screen appeared before my eyes, and lines of text jumped out.

[Rewards being processed...]

[During today's cycling trip, your heart was filled with confidence and passion, hope, humility and sharpness, pride and composure. You experienced the richness of life with a richer inner world, and truly felt your own spiritedness.]

You have obtained a special item: Shop Refresh Card *1

Tang Song smiled and downed the whiskey in his glass in one gulp, then casually placed it on the coffee table.

Enter the warehouse, select the [Shop Refresh Card], and use it immediately.

"Ding! The System Shop has been updated, and new items have been added." A crisp System Prompt Sound sounded in my ear.

Return to the main interface and enter the store module.

Two items, each shimmering with a different light, appeared on the previously empty shelf.

With a gentle touch of the mind, product information pops up instantly.

[Performance Fruit]: Gradually improves physical performance and enhances endurance within one week of use. (Price: 2 million yuan)

[Note 1: During the duration of the Endurance Fruit's effect, strengthening training, adjusting lifestyle, and reducing performance waste will allow you to better utilize the fruit's effects.]

[Whispers of Human Nature]: When players encounter suitable scenarios and individuals, this item will automatically trigger, generating a special event instance. Completing the instance will help players better understand human nature, Charm +1. (Price: 20 million)

After reading the product description, Tang Song's eyes lit up with intense joy.

It seems I've completed the challenge very well; both items that appeared were exactly what I wanted.

Right now, his most pressing concern is that the performance is insufficient.

This 30-year-old woman is truly amazing; she's also a fitness enthusiast.

The beautician is also a young and ambitious player who has mastered the amazing skill of Eloquent Tongue.

There's also Xiao Xue, the little assistant who can turn into water at any time, and I have to watch her draw maps from time to time.

The [Performance Fruit] arrived just in time!

Besides performance, he also hopes to improve his charm as soon as possible to unlock more permissions and assets.

[Whispers of Human Nature] I got it once before when I had over 10,000 followers on Little Red Book. I used it on Lin Mu Xue. After clearing the dungeon, her Charm +1. It's a magical item.

The price of 20 million yuan is not unexpected.

Enter your personal center.

[Balance: 513,000 yuan (Investment Capital: 195 million yuan)]

Looking at his pitifully low balance, Tang Song opened his title, "The Popular Me," to view the details.

Current cash reward: 2,212,100 yuan (total 24,012,100 yuan)

Little Red Book followers: 19,855.

Douyin followers: 206,311.

It has been about 10 days since the last withdrawal, and I have updated a few videos intermittently in between.

Although I didn't put in much effort, I gained nearly 20,000 followers on Douyin, but only a little over 2,000 on Little Red Book.

Looking at the price tag of 20 million for "Whispers of Human Nature".

Tang Song sighed. He still needed to work hard to make money and put his heart into making the videos.

Alternatively, you could try to trigger a mission that offers a monetary reward. If that doesn't work, you'll probably have to wait until you complete the "Second Stage Growth Plan Task" before you can buy it.

However, No rush this item, since even if you use it, you don't know when it will trigger.

Click to withdraw.

[Balance: 2.725 million yuan (Investment Capital: 195 million yuan)]

Return to the store, select the item, and buy it now.

"Ding! You have obtained a special item, [Performance Fruit]."

[Balance: 725,000 yuan (Investment Capital: 195 million yuan)]

Enter the warehouse.

A fruit shimmering with green light lay there quietly.

Just about to click to use.

Tang Song's gaze then fell upon the [Enhancement Crystal] beside it, which was shimmering with white light.

This is a magical item that can combine and enhance special items that are related.

I habitually long-press on the [Enhancement Crystal] button.

Next, items that can be combined appear.

(Tang Song's Baseball Cap X Tang Song's Glasses)

([Learning Card] X [Tang Song's Mask])

([Special Instance Generation Card] X [Learning Card] X [Performance Fruit] X [Tang Song's Mask])

Tang Song's eyes lit up instantly when he saw the combination of four props at the bottom.

He had used the [Enhancement Crystal] many times in the game and roughly knew a pattern.

The more components you combine, the more magical and precious the new item will be.

Based on simple deduction, the new item formed by combining these four items will most likely involve "scenario instances" and should be related to "school" and "learning".

After a moment 'Pondered, Tang Song decided to give it a try.
