I'm such a lovesick person.

Chapter 322 The Decision of Five Choices

Liu Ju was startled.

He has been in the industry for many years and has always been meticulous and careful in his work, rarely making mistakes.

He thought about it carefully and realized that there hadn't been any problems along the way. But Wei Lin immediately asked him which family he belonged to, and his expression and tone were so confident that he panicked.

But on the surface, he remained calm and composed, looking completely bewildered.

"What exactly do you want to film?"

Wei Lin continued to ask with a smile.

Li Qinling's image is related to Qingque and Nimo. Both of his companies are linked to Li Qinling, and he doesn't want to damage Li Qinling's positive image or affect her future entertainment career because of some messy people and things.

"Am I bothering you by taking some landscape photos?"

Liu Ju scoffed lightly, clearly dissatisfied.

With his enhanced insight gained through life advancement, Wei Lin immediately recognized that Liu Ju was lying. Coupled with his vigilance, he was certain that Liu Ju was after Li Qinling.

Moreover, it was full of malice.

Wei Lin was too lazy to argue with him, so he stepped forward and snatched the SLR camera from Liu Ju's hand. When Liu Ju angrily tried to grab it back, Wei Lin held Liu Ju down with just one hand.

"Let me see. If it's just scenery, I'll naturally return it to you."

With one hand holding Liu Ju down, Wei Lin skillfully operated the camera with the other, flipping through the photos. Then he laughed: "You've been keeping a close eye on her, haven't you? You started watching her from the airport, and kept watching her until she met with her friends. You even followed her all the way from Shanghai to Linjiang City."

There are many photos of Li Qinling in the camera.

From the moment she appeared at Shanghai Airport, there were photos of her entering and leaving hotels, including her meeting with Fu Jintang.

The two drove together to Linjiang City, checked into the Donglin Hotel, and then stood at the entrance of the Donglin Hotel before getting into his Land Cruiser.

Very comprehensive!
"Professionals are professionals."

Wei Lin exclaimed in admiration.

In front of Liu Ju, he deleted all the photos of Li Qinling one by one, then went to the deleted pages and cleared them completely before handing the DSLR camera back to Liu Ju, saying, "Okay, stop taking pictures. Also, don't write anything to deliberately smear Li Qinling, or I have plenty of ways to deal with you."

Before Liu Ju could explain anything, Wei Lin left gracefully.

"Uncle Zhao, this is Wei Lin. Is the large private room at your club still available tonight? I'm planning to host a dinner party for some friends."

"Yes, I'll let Zhao Meng know in a bit. Wei Lin, since you made the reservation at the last minute, there might not be anything special on the menu, but I'll have Zhao Meng try his best to find some."

Zhao Fulong laughed heartily on the phone.

"Thank you, Uncle Zhao."

Wei Lin had just hung up when he dialed Zhao Yuanqing's number again, saying that two friends were going to be there that evening and asking if he had time.

Zhao Yuanqing: "Sure! Wei Lin, Huang Xingzhi invited us to dinner last time, should we invite him and Qian Zixu along?"

Wei Lin hesitated for a moment, then said, "That works too."

After that, he made a series of phone calls, inviting Huo Shiqi and Feng Yuzhi, and also calling his younger brother An Xin, intending to help An Xin and Feng Yuzhi get together and get things done for them decisively.

Each invitee was flattered and gladly accepted.

"Brother Han, it's been a long time. Do you have dinner plans tonight? I have two friends from out of town coming over. If you don't have any plans, how about we have dinner together? It's at Uncle Zhao's private club."

Wei Lin then dialed Han Jie's number again.

Han Jie readily agreed: "Okay!"

He, Huo Shiqi, Huang Xingzhi, and others were all second-generation elites in Linjiang City, on the same level as Fu Jintang, so there were no obstacles in their conversations.

Fu Jintang enjoys lively gatherings, and she would probably feel happy if a table full of people made a ruckus.

……

"Who was that person? What were you talking about with him?"

When Wei Lin caught up with the two women, Fu Jintang looked suspicious, clearly having just noticed his communication with Liu Ju.

Because the guide was nearby, Wei Lin didn't say anything in detail, only saying, "It seems to be newspaper staff who took some photos, which I just deleted."

Upon hearing this, Fu Jintang immediately understood and his eyes fell on Li Qinling.

Li Qinling said softly, "It's alright."

She knew that she had recently had conflicts with some colleagues because of several films, but the conflicts were all caused by her agent, Zhao Mei, and had nothing to do with her.

She was familiar with some of the dirty secrets of the entertainment industry, but Zhao Mei protected her very well, so she didn't need to worry about it.

As she continues to rise in popularity, more and more news about her has emerged, digging up information from her childhood to the present.

Fortunately, she doesn't really have any blemishes in her life, so she's not afraid of others digging into it.

……

The two women continued strolling around with the tour guide.

Wei Lin, trailing behind, was still pondering several options, gradually sorting out his thoughts.

"Can the misfortune that plagues my competitors be applied to Mr. Wu? This man will be my biggest enemy in the future. If I can make him suffer, my pressure will definitely be reduced."

"Until a choice is made, the growth of affection points will remain stagnant. Let's leave it at that!"

At a scenic spot with a strange rock formation resembling a Qilin, Wei Lin sat on a bench, head down, and made his choice, shouting at the love value progress bar: "2, 3, 4, 5, 8!" Instantly, a line of small words flashed through Wei Lin's mind.

"Zhongjin Mining, Longxing Precision Machinery".

As Wei Lin expected, the second option for short-term profits was indeed two stocks.

At the same time, a tingling, numb, and painful sensation permeated Wei Lin's flesh and bones, making him feel as if he were being subjected to a mild electric shock, with every cell being stimulated to be abnormally active.

"Permanently enhance resilience!"

Wei Lin immediately realized that the third enhancement option he had chosen was already taking effect in his body.

He straightened up slightly on the bench, looking at his palms, the backs of his hands, and a small section of his forearm that was exposed.

Under this power, his skin rippled with extremely slight waves, as if some kind of luster was moving beneath the skin, enhancing his various bodily functions.

"If I improve this ability again, what kind of blows can I withstand? I'm already immune to sticks and clubs, but can a sharp weapon like a controlled knife seriously injure me?"

"Firearms? That probably won't work. If firearms can't hurt me, then I'm not human."

While considering this, Wei Lin did not perceive the strange effect brought about by the fourth option.

The fourth option is an opportunity to avoid danger, which can be triggered when encountering a perilous situation.

The act of Liu Ju, a reporter from a newspaper, secretly filming Li Qinling was obviously not dangerous, and therefore could not be considered a perilous situation.

Besides, he had just dealt with Liu Ju's problem.

"This option should be triggered sometime in the future. I just need to wait and see."

As his thoughts shifted, a scene appeared in Wei Lin's field of vision.

In a high-end VIP ward at Mingji Hospital.

Mr. Wu, who is handsome and wears black-rimmed glasses, sits quietly by the hospital bed in a well-tailored suit, his large, well-defined hand tightly holding a small hand.

A woman in her forties, wearing a hospital gown and receiving an IV drip, looked haggard in her hospital bed.

The woman appears to be suffering from some kind of illness, which has made her extremely thin. Judging from the images alone, Wei Lin thinks that she would have looked excellent when she was in a normal body shape.

"Xiaoya, it's okay, you'll be alright."

Mr. Wu's voice was gentle as water, and his charming face broke into a bright smile as he said, "You know, I've saved many people before. No matter how serious the illness, I can find a way to treat it. I'm looking for one now, believe me, I will definitely find a way, and you will get better slowly."

The image flashed by in an instant.

Wei Lin was stunned.

The fifth option, an opportunity to spy on a potential rival, has passed just like that.

The so-called potential nemesis was indeed Mr. Wu!

Judging from the images shown, one of Mr. Wu's lovers seems to be terminally ill, and he is trying every possible way to help his lover recover.

Mr. Wu was once the owner of the Love Value System. He himself said that he had saved many people, most likely by relying on the Life Fruit and the Enhancement Fruit.

Or perhaps, it is the healing power of life essence.

Who is he looking for?

"I!"

Wei Lin frowned, realizing that because of his lover's illness, Mr. Wu would be even more determined to find him.

Having lost the favor of the Love Value system, Mr. Wu no longer holds any fruits, and his Love Value and Life Essence progress bars are naturally stripped away as well.

He knew very well that he no longer had that ability, and the only way to help his lover recover was to find him.

“Under these circumstances, Mr. Wu probably won’t kill me immediately. Even if he does find me, he’ll want to detain me first to cure his lover’s illness. He seems very anxious, so I need to be extra careful to avoid exposing my identity too early and having him imprison me.”

Wei Lin muttered to himself.

His will remained in his mind, and he immediately saw two Life Fruits hanging in the air. He knew that as long as he used one of the Life Fruits on the woman named "Xiaoya", he could cure her illness and help her recover completely.

“Mingji Hospital? Mr. Wu can’t find me now, but I might be able to find Mr. Wu, and perhaps find that Xiaoya.”

Wei Lin seemed to be deep in thought.

With Mr. Wu's financial resources, the hospital he arranged for his lover would naturally be top-notch. If he put his mind to it, he might be able to find out which Mingji Hospital Xiaoya was in.

It's possible to find a high-end VIP ward.

But what can I do after I find it?

How about we follow the clues to find Mr. Wu, and then kill him beforehand?

Wei Lin didn't know how many times Mr. Wu had undergone life advancement, but he knew from his intuition that Mr. Wu was definitely not easy to deal with, because the improvements in all aspects of the body after life advancement could be retained.

He has only advanced seven times, while Mr. Wu may have advanced more than ten times. Even without the blessing of the affection value system, Mr. Wu is still an extraordinary existence.

If he were to deal with Mr. Wu now, he might not be able to do anything to Mr. Wu, but instead, he would expose his own existence much earlier.

"How about we do him a favor? We can secretly find that woman named Xiaoya, give her a Life Fruit, and help her save her lover's life. Is there any chance that this will dispel his obsession with regaining control of the Love Value System?"

Wei Lin stroked his chin, deep in thought.
