Chapter 43: Chapter 40 Eat a Bite of One’s Own lon
“`
It wasn’t until almost one o’clock that Zhou Wang finally sat down in the Provincial Library.
“So, they say that won really can erode a man’s willpower. No wonder there were so many foolish kings in ancient tis, spending all their ti with beautiful won and having no ti for anything serious.”
Zhou Wang sighed before opening his book.
He hadn’t even actually conquered Jiang Mo yet, and he was already sowhat addicted. How would he be able to handle it in the future?
Ding!
...
[Bound object Jiang Mo’s spiritual desire has been fulfilled, Desire Consumption Gold has been issued]
“CMB, your account ending in 1111 received an inco of RMB 366,000 on July 5th at 12:57 PM.”
The sudden system notification startled Zhou Wang.
Mainly, it was the amount this ti, which directly reached over 300,000, much more than each previous one, leaving Zhou Wang a bit surprised.
He then noticed the difference in the system notification; this ti, it wasn’t “material desire” but “spiritual desire.”
Although he didn’t know what Jiang Mo had gone through, it seed to be sothing good, as it also ant Jiang Mo had fallen deeper for him.
Casually, he transferred 50,000 to Jiang Mo as compensation for the “saliva loss” and “skin bruise dical expenses” from the morning. Zhou Wang pondered over the remaining more than five million.
It seed hard to spend all this money with just ordinary shopping, so it would be best to reasonably use it to further satisfy Jiang Mo’s desires.
A house.
Zhou Wang quickly thought of this ideal option.
He couldn’t have Jiang Mo living in a hotel forever, and directly buying a house would spend a large sum of money and completely improve her living conditions, absolutely perfect!
Dingdong!
WeChat rang, and Zhou Wang glanced at it; it was a ssage from Jiang Mo.
“I don’t want it, 50,000 is enough.”
“Take it.”
Already having a preliminary understanding of Jiang Mo’s personality, Zhou Wang sent out these two words without any extra punctuation.
Sure enough, a few minutes later, Jiang Mo accepted the transfer. Just when Zhou Wang thought the conversation was over, she sent a picture of the scenery outside a car window, along with the words, “We’re off.”
Was this a report, or was she trying to avoid so awkwardness?
Zhou Wang was too lazy to delve into it, replied “Got it,” and exited the chat box. Just as he was about to close WeChat, his phone rang again, and to his surprise, it was a ssage from Ding Yi.
“Zhou Wang, Zhou Wang, there’s so earth-shattering gossip!”
“Want to have so with ~”
“Out of 1.4 billion people, I’m only telling you, so you better appreciate it.jpg”
Seeing the Ding Yi sent last, Zhou Wang couldn’t help but smile.
Ever since the birthday party, the two had been chatting intermittently on WeChat without any specific beginning or end, and Ding Yi would occasionally send a ssage, even if Zhou Wang didn’t reply to her promptly.
This felt like going back to their ambiguous ti in freshman year.
Ding Yi was cheerful, always full of energy between the lines, and chatting with her was pleasant, although Ranran was more enthusiastic, sending three or four dozen ssages and at least three photos daily, even if Zhou Wang didn’t reply.
Chatting with Su Yajing wasn’t pleasant, but rather joyous, though looking at too many of those photos could heat things up a bit too much.
“Granted,” Zhou Wang quickly replied.
“Do you rember I told you yesterday about my super beautiful and aloof senior, rember?”
“I rember, what’s up?”
Zhou Wang naturally knew she was talking about Jiang Mo, although Ding Yi didn’t know they knew each other yet… well, now they were more than just acquaintances.
“Her outfit today was really weird, a windbreaker and scarf in the middle of sumr, so I took notice!”
“I found out just now when she bent over… she actually has a hickey on her neck!”
“Hmph, she tried to fool by saying it was a mosquito bite. How ridiculous, are the mosquitos from Korea that extravagant?”
“Even though I’ve never been in a relationship, don’t think you can fool clever !”
Looking at the mix of text and s from Ding Yi, Zhou Wang couldn’t help but touch his nose.
So… was the gossip about him?
“What’s wrong with a hickey, never seen one?”
“No, Zhou Wang, you didn’t get the point. My senior, although a few years older than , has never been in a relationship!”
“Besides, her personality is so super cool, she wouldn’t do such things even if she were dating soone…”
Ding Yi was confused, but Zhou Wang wanted to say…
You just don’t know her well enough.
But at that mont, Zhou Wang suddenly realized another problem.
The relationship between him and Jiang Mo was bound to get exposed to Ding Yi sooner or later. What would happen then?
Wait, why was he so worried about this issue?
Thinking this, Zhou Wang was taken aback, then began to ticulously examine his own heart.
After a mont, he confessed,
“Turns out I still have a craving for Ding Yi’s body.”
Shaless!
But scolding himself wouldn’t solve anything, so he could only take it one step at a ti.
…
Without Jiang Mo disturbing his inner peace, Zhou Wang spent a few days lost in studying until the afternoon of the 8th, when he closed the last book on his day’s list, “1587: A Year of No Significance.”
He rubbed his sore temples and opened the system interface for a look.
“Current Round 2 Total Points: 590.”
As of today, half of the round’s ti had passed, which was seven days, and nearly 600 points were pretty decent. At this pace, owning a luxurious mansion was within reach.
Additionally, during these past few days, he had encountered another “Easter Egg Book.”
But this ti, instead of triggering a hidden round, he directly obtained a one-ti-use item.
[Ezreal’s Treasure Map (Basic), After use, it will uncover treasures related to the target. When the map is in a dig-ready state, the system will automatically issue a notification.]
“I am God.”
Zhou Wang automatically ignored that self-absorbed voice from a young man.
He just hadn’t quite figured out what the system’s definition of “treasure” was, and anyway, since obtaining the map yesterday, he hadn’t heard any alerts from the system.
This ant the conditions for activation were probably pretty tricky.
Returning from the library to the hotel, Zhou Wang began to feel a bit restless.
The reason was simple, as tomorrow happened to be the library’s once-a-week closing day, aning it was Zhou Wang’s only “holiday” in this round.
After tomorrow, if he wanted to have fun again, he’d have to wait another week.
At first glance, he had quite a few options. For instance, Manager Mao had invited him out several tis, Su Yajing hinted boredom countless tis, the bank’s personal custor service representative, Xu Wenqian, had been trying to invite him to dinner, or he could call up Li Cheng and a few other classmates for drinks.
But Zhou Wang just didn’t feel like moving. The continuous days of imrsive reading had drained his energy, and at least for tonight, he only wanted a leisure activity with very low social interaction.
Suddenly rembering sothing, Zhou Wang jumped up from the sofa, then fished out a small card from the lower layer of the coffee table.
