Gasp! She's a Time Traveler Using Modern Tech to Improve Ancient Life-Chapter 686 - 682: Love Canโt Be Hidden
Lu Shouyue went to the front desk to ask for a first aid kit and pulled Lin Wanwan to sit on the sofa on the right side of the hall for disinfection and medication. ๐๐ง๐๐ฎ๐๐ฎ๐๐ฃ๐ธ๐๐๐.๐๐๐
Perhaps his deeply concentrated gaze was too eye-catching, attracting a lot of attention, making Lin Wanwan a bit embarrassed.
"Mr. Lu, is it done? Thereโs no need to trouble you so much."
"Itโs done."
After disinfecting Lin Wanwanโs wound and applying a bandage, Lu Shouyue took Lin Wanwan to the restaurant on the second floor.
His expression remained calm with nothing unusual, while Lin Wanwan felt uncertain whether he believed her explanation.
Yet, regardless of whether he believed her or not, she was not going to reveal her secrets publicly, leaving him to speculate.
The two of them walked to the long table on the second floor, where many people were already seated.
A row of gentlemen, a row of ladies, none of them alone.
The restaurant was exclusively for their group, with a floor-to-ceiling window at the end of the long table, overlooking a vast grassland.
However, todayโs view wasnโt just the grassland; it included a variety show crew filming on the grassland, with Lin Wanwanโs cousin Lin Mengyun among them.
From the side of the table, the scene was perfectly visible, yet the attendees showed little interest.
Those still remaining were Wang Bochengโs close friends, as most birthday party guests had already left.
A group of people saw Lu Shouyue leading Lin Wanwan over, unleashing a burst of laughter, teasing the pair and joking about the bandage on Lin Wanwanโs neck.
Lu Shouyue skillfully responded with playful retorts, indicating their good relationship.
Of the group, Wang Bocheng and a chubby man with the surname Ye had the most natural rapport with Lu Shouyue.
The three seemed to be the center of the circle, and others subtly aimed to please them.
"Wanwan, over here!" The girl next to Lin Wanwan was a strikingly glamorous internet celebrity, with an eye-catching figure, the type who could wear pure outfits with an unmistakably sophisticated allure.
She was the latest girlfriend photographed with Wang Bocheng, reportedly just graduated from university. Her online nickname was Pao Fu, and she had chatted with Lin Wanwan yesterday, exchanged WeChat contacts, becoming acquaintances.
Lin Wanwan nodded at her: "Hello."
At the table, the only handsome man was Lu Shouyue, while a row of beauties, each with their unique charm, adorned the scene.
Among the beauties, Lin Wanwan was the only one with a natural face, her hair casually tied with a black hair tie.
Yet, even without makeup, her glowing skin, transformed by the Space-Time Gate, was stunning enough to make her radiate beauty.
Especially as she was in high spirits, having come into a windfall today, making her appear especially vivacious and lively. Anyone who spoke to her received a bright smile in return.
The water-like eyes beneath her long lashes held a distinctive sincerity, making anyone feel important when she looked at them.
Suddenly, Lu Shouyue felt the urge to hide Lin Wanwan away, competing for her attention by relentlessly offering her delicacies with communal chopsticks, so much so that Lin Wanwan didnโt need to use the chopsticks in front of her.
"Wow, Mr. Lu is truly considerate." Pao Fu couldnโt help but exclaim as she watched Lu Shouyue meticulously cutting the steak into small pieces and placing them in Lin Wanwanโs bowl.
As the only high, handsome, and rich young man at the table, comparable to celebrity heartthrobs, Lu Shouyue was truly exceptional.
The look of being in love is indeed impossible to hide.
Though the table was lined with delicately dressed beauties, Lu Shouyueโs eyes rested solely on one person, with no interest in even glancing at anyone else.
Pao Fuโs remark shifted the entire tableโs attention to them.
Wang Bocheng exclaimed theatrically, "A good man is Lu Shouyue, and Lu Shouyue is a good man."
This was evidently a modified line from Love Apartmentโs Zeng Xiaoxian, humorously delivered by Wang Bocheng, eliciting laughter from everyone.
"Master Lu is indeed a good man," everyone echoed.
The chubby man loudly proclaimed he was already full from dog food, urging his partner to serve him food in return.
Lu Shouyue boldly lifted his glass to toast everyone.
Lin Wanwan, however, quietly said, "Mr. Lu, I can do it myself."
This meal stirred many peopleโs emotions, perhaps only the involved parties knew.
Wang Bocheng complained at the table to Lin Wanwan about Lu Shouyueโs dominance, claiming he forced him to buy trending searches for six figures just for idle gossip.
Only then did Lin Wanwan realize the source of the morningโs trending search, previously thinking it was merely Wang Bochengโs natural popularity!
Since the trending topic came up, everyone picked up their phones to browse the comments below.
The official announcement photo of Lu Shouyue and Lin Wanwan holding hands was among the popular topics on the trending square.
Opening the comments section, after a morning of fermentation, netizens exerted their Sherlock Holmes-like observation skills, analyzing that the hand holding Lin Wanwanโs was that of the former "Jiang Sidanton" young master.
Furthermore, someone dug up a video from before showing Lu Shouyue, wearing a mask, helping Han Qingxue drag the scumbag Wu Feiyue into a small black room.
Back then, netizens hypothesized that the masked manโs hand and the Jiang Sidanton young masterโs hand belonged to the same person.
Comparing todayโs official announcement photo concluded that Jiang Sidanton young master equals masked man, masked man equals Kung Fu Girlโs boyfriend, Kung Fu Girlโs boyfriend equals Wang Bochengโs friend, who gifted Kung Fu Girl a dazzling rare blue diamond.
A logical reasoning loop, everything was coherent.
Lin Wanwan was shocked by the netizensโ analysis abilities, though she certainly wasnโt going to respond online.
After dinner, everyone paired up to leave, with curious female companions quietly asking their male partners about the blue diamond gossip.
The men uniformly responded they didnโt know, preferring discretion. Now, faced with their girlfriendsโ envious questions, they naturally played dumb.
The womenโs admiration for Lin Wanwan reached its peak post-dinner, with everyone agreeing that a boyfriend willing to give a blue diamond must be considering marriage.
Unlike them, dating these third-generation elites, merely indulging in fleeting pleasures, never expecting sincere affection, nor envisioning enduring happiness.
And Lu Shouyueโs fondness and attention towards Lin Wanwan were evident throughout the meal, how could anyone not envy?
This was a top-notch wealthy prince.
Nonetheless, Lin Wanwanโs delight differed from others; her mind was filled with thoughts of her rhinoceros horn, her ambergris, her gem-studded whip!
Regrettably, she couldnโt showcase them on the spot to share with others, enjoying them alone.
Striking it rich in silence dampens half of the joy.
