"Haha."
Li Yuqing giggled, lifted her hips slightly, and settled into the bathtub beside her in an incredibly seductive pose before continuing:
"Honey, we just picked out two themes for our video accounts. We were going to ask you tomorrow, but since you're done working, how about helping us choose a direction?"
"Sure. What are the two?"
"One is a pet-themed video account, and the other features women in traditional hanfu. Which do you think we should try first, honey?"
"Try the women in traditional hanfu first. That's pretty popular, and both guys and girls like watching it," Zeng Shen said honestly.
"Then Tongtong and I will go to the Trade Building tomorrow to pick out outfits, and we'll turn the side bedroom in our studio into a hanfu room. If you're free then, honey, come over and film us."
"Of course. Oh, right, I want to buy a car tomorrow."
"Sure. What kind are you planning to buy?"
"A bigger one, preferably something that can scale walls and leap across rooftops. I think a Wuling can do that."
"Haha, you really love joking around, honey."
"I'm not joking."
After chatting a little longer, Zeng Shen hung up and went to sleep.
[Congratulations, host. Your followers have contributed 270 faith points.]
The next day.
Zeng Shen sat up and, listening to the notification in his ears, went to wash up. Then he entered his divine realm, fed the cats again, and opened several more packages of cat food to leave beside them. Only then did he leave the divine realm without worry, ready to farm the nearby survival points before picking up Li Yuqing.
The car soon passed along the sidewalk and through the shopping streets.
Finally, it stopped in front of the park plaza.
As Zeng Shen got out and headed toward the park plaza's entrance, he kept feeling as though he had forgotten something yesterday.
When he reached the park entrance, he saw Master Ma teaching the elderly men and women tai chi in the plaza, just as usual.
Zeng Shen gave his forehead a light smack, realization dawning on his face.
"Shit."
"I was so busy yesterday that I forgot to go farm survival points at Li Zhiyuan's Martial Arts Hall."
"That's a whole 1,500 survival points."
"No, starting today, I have to plan out my daily schedule and try to earn as many survival points as possible before dark every day."
Having made up his mind, Zeng Shen strode through the park entrance, ready to farm his daily survival points from Master Ma.
In the park plaza, Master Ma was leading the elderly men and women through their morning tai chi practice as usual, oblivious to someone gradually approaching him.
Zeng Shen walked up behind Master Ma. Seeing his palm raised above his head, he playfully reached out and gave him a gentle high five, triggering a system warning.
Master Ma was completely absorbed in his morning practice when his palm was suddenly struck. He turned around, craning his neck to curse at the culprit, only to hear Zeng Shen's laughter.
"Master Ma, let's continue our sparring match from last time."
"Huh? Sparring? No, another day, another day." The moment Master Ma saw Zeng Shen, he shrank back and hurriedly waved his hands. Then he turned and headed toward the park's rear exit as if fleeing. "I have something to take care of at my Martial Arts Hall. I'm heading back."
[The host has overcome a stronger opponent, subduing and driving back a tier-three fire deity. Gained 200 survival points.]
"Haha."
Hearing the system notification, Zeng Shen couldn't help laughing in delight. He called after the fleeing Master Ma, "Master Ma, when you get back to the Martial Arts Hall, please tell Li Zhiyuan that something came up yesterday afternoon and I forgot to drop by. I'll come practice martial arts with him this afternoon."
He didn't bother checking whether Master Ma had heard him.
After speaking, Zeng Shen turned and left the park plaza. He drove to the pedestrian street and farmed the survival points in that area before heading to the Juling office building to pick up Li Yuqing and Liu Tongtong.
[Warning, the host is about to approach a tier-three deity of the undead system...]
Ignoring the notification in his ears, Zeng Shen quickly parked outside the Trade Building.
A short while later.
The two beauties, Li Yuqing and Liu Tongtong, emerged from the Juling Building, one wearing black stockings and the other white.
The car door opened, and Li Yuqing settled into the passenger seat with a lovely fragrance, while Liu Tongtong took the back seat.
"Honey, let's buy the car first. Then Tongtong and I will go to the Trade Building to pick out hanfu," Li Yuqing said.
"Sure thing."
The largest car dealership in Jinhai City.
Zeng Shen entered with the crowd, accompanied by the two beauties, Li Yuqing and Liu Tongtong, and instantly became the center of attention.
A delicate-looking saleswoman reacted with remarkable speed and immediately approached them. She also had a sharp eye, recognizing at a glance who was the main customer.
"Hello, sir. My name is Xiaoya, and I'm a salesperson here. Is there a car you have your eye on? Or what price range are you looking at?"
"A car I have my eye on? Not yet. Something under a million, I guess."
Xiaoya's eyes immediately lit up, and she moved to lead Zeng Shen toward several internationally renowned brands.
Zeng Shen followed Xiaoya for a couple of steps, then turned and headed toward the area displaying several Wuling models.
"Sir, that's the wrong way. It's over here," Xiaoya immediately called out.
Zeng Shen turned around, puzzled. "Huh? Aren't these Wuling cars under a million?"
Hearing his words, Xiaoya felt as though she had been toyed with. A female colleague nearby, who had missed the chance to greet Zeng Shen earlier, couldn't help laughing at the sight.
"Xiaoya, a fifty-thousand car is under a million too."
Xiaoya apparently didn't get along with this colleague. She shot her a fierce glance, then quickly regained her composure and caught up with Zeng Shen. Showing impressive resilience, she asked enthusiastically:
"Which Wuling model would you like, sir? We have several of the most popular models on the market right now, and they're very affordable, ranging from around seventy thousand to two hundred thousand. And right now, there's also..."
But Zeng Shen seemed not to hear her. He swept his gaze over the Wuling vehicles, then pointed at the one at the far end, priced at two million.
"I want this one."
Xiaoya, who had been introducing the lower-end vehicles, followed his pointing finger toward that Wuling. She froze briefly, then asked for confirmation:
"Sir, are you sure you want this Wuling?"
Li Yuqing also looked in the direction Zeng Shen was pointing and asked in confusion:
"Honey, that's an RV. Are you sure you want it?"
"Yeah. Isn't it cool? People can sit in both the front and the back, and the rear compartment is really spacious. You can sleep in it and do plenty of other things too." As he spoke, Zeng Shen leaned over and whispered in her ear, "I saw people in the forum group saying this thing rocks pretty nicely. Let's sneak out and give it a try tonight."
Li Yuqing understood instantly, her cheeks flushing slightly.
Beside them, Liu Tongtong gave a light cough, apparently reminding them that she was still there.
"Since you've picked this one, sir, would you like to get in and try it first?"
"No need. Just charge my card, and I'll drive it away."
"Oh, of course, sir." Xiaoya was both startled and delighted.
Soon, under the astonished gaze of Xiaoya's female colleague, Zeng Shen paid by card at lightning speed, then drove the enormous Wuling RV out of the dealership and headed to the vehicle administration office to register it and get its plates.
Behind him, Li Yuqing drove her own car, taking Liu Tongtong to the Trade Building to pick out hanfu.
