I'm such a lovesick person.

Chapter 465 Relief
Ever since he learned of Wu Chong's existence and that Wu Chong intended to regain control of the Love Value System by killing him, Wei Lin has often felt uneasy.

He knew in his heart how powerful Wu Chong was, as the former owner of the Love Value System.

He knew that once Wu Chong had his eye on him, it would be difficult to get rid of him.

Wu Chong really wanted to kill him; after his identity was exposed, his chances of survival were probably not high.

So he said very frankly that he just wanted to live.

Upon hearing this, Wu Chong smiled and said, "At first, I did consider killing you, but then I hesitated. After you used up a Life Fruit to save my woman Qin Hanya, I completely changed my mind."

"Wei Lin, you can rest assured now, I won't do anything to you anymore."

"You are very smart."

"Since you've agreed to give me a portion of what I'm destined to have, I'll have no reason to kill you."

"Keep the sterilization fruit and the marriage fruit for me, and wait for my news. I need them soon."

"Okay, that's all for today. I'll contact you if I need anything."

Wu Zhong hung up the phone first.

Wei Lin let out a long sigh, suddenly feeling a sense of boundless freedom.

The invisible, heavy shackles were removed because of this phone call, and from then on he no longer needed to worry day and night!

That's not all!
Wu Zhong intended to purchase the fruits he possessed, even at a cost.

Given Wu Zhong's current status and the resources he controls, he can give Wei Lin almost everything he wants!
Qin Wei, Han Jie, Ma Yungui, and others can give him, but Wu Zhong can give even more!

He will have no more worries.

"The affection value system is not eternal; it only lasts for nine rounds. After seven rounds, you will face choices and may lose affection."

Wei Lin pondered Wu Zhong's words.

He could sense that Wu Chong hadn't explained the affection value system in great detail or clearly, and seemed to be hiding something.

It's possible that even Wu Chong himself didn't understand the origin of the Affection Value System or its operating rules.

"It won't be long before I can meet Wu Chongzhen and then I'll ask him about it."

Wei Lin went back to his room to sleep feeling relieved.

……

The next day.

September 4th, Saturday.

Affection level: 25742/50000.

Life Energy: 1120/5000.

Waking up in the morning and opening the curtains to see the sunlight outside, Wei Lin suddenly felt that life was so wonderful.

The problem that had been troubling him for a long time was finally resolved last night.

In his view, whether or not the affection value system is lost after nine rounds, it will not affect his life.

After all, he already has everything.

Previously, he was worried that Xiao Bing and Dai Yixuan would tell Wu Zhong about his situation, and that Dong Mu, who was unwilling to give up, would eventually find him and that Wu Zhong would use his power to kill him.

Now, the person he fears most may become his strongest backer.

What could make him happier than this?
"Mom, I'm going out for lunch. Could you cook some of my favorite dishes?"

In a great mood, Wei Lin made a phone call to Teacher Wang and hummed a little tune as he washed up and changed.

……

Eight in the morning.

Xiao Bing and Dai Yixuan arranged to meet at a famous dim sum restaurant in Linjiang City.

Dai Yixuan changed into a tracksuit, planning to have Han Jie show her around after breakfast.

She looked at Xiao Bing, whose brows furrowed with a hint of annoyance, and asked with a smile, "Sister Bing, why didn't you come to have dinner with us last night? Let me tell you, it was actually quite lively last night."

Dai Yixuan brought up the incident from last night when everyone went to make a scene in Cao Tao's private room.

Xiao Bing clearly had no interest, her expression indifferent.

“Wei Lin is really ungrateful. I tried my best to introduce him to my godfather, but he actually refused.”

Xiao Bing snorted coldly.

Last night, she met with some friends in Linjiang City to try and get more information about Wei Lin's situation, but she didn't get any useful information. Those guys knew less about Wei Lin than she did.

Feeling disheartened, she decided to return to Jinling City after breakfast.

Dai Yixuan invited her to wander around Linjiang City, but she had no interest whatsoever, since Jinling City and Linjiang City are adjacent, and she had already visited all the tourist attractions there.

“I tried to persuade him last night, but he said he wasn’t interested, and there was nothing I could do.”

Dai Yixuan sighed.

Just as the two were complaining about Wei Lin, Xiao Bing suddenly received a message from Wu Zhong: "Xiao Bing, you're in Linjiang City, right? Wei Lin is your friend?"

Xiao Bing was startled and quickly replied, "Yes, godfather, how did you know about Wei Lin? Uncle Dong, did you find out that he also has shares in Zhongcheng Pharmaceutical?" Wu Zhong was taken aback.

Last night, Wei Lin clearly stated that his phone number came from Xiao Bing, but now Xiao Bing is showing signs of not knowing. What does this mean?
Having also experienced the Love Value System and knowing the wonders of Life Essence, he immediately understood that Wei Lin's method of obtaining his information likely involved the magical power of Life Essence.

Wu Zhong didn't explain further, but instead dialed Xiao Bing's number directly.

Since Dai Yixuan was also there, Xiao Bing left the dim sum restaurant as soon as the phone rang. He waited until they were in a quiet place outside before saying, "Godfather, Dai Yixuan was just next to me."

"Oh, she's here too? It's really nothing."

Wu Chong smiled calmly and said, "Wei Lin is a good kid. We'll be dealing with each other a lot in the future. I talked to him on the phone last night, and I think highly of him."

Xiao Bingxuan: "Godfather, is there anything you need me to do?"

As she spoke, she felt a pang of regret, regretting that she hadn't told Wu Zhong about Wei Lin's situation immediately, thus missing out on some credit.

She still felt that Wu Chong knew about Wei Lin because of Dong Mu's investigation.

"You stay in Linjiang City for now and wait for my news."

While pondering, Wu Chong instructed, "I might arrange for someone to come to Linjiang City in the next couple of days. You are responsible for picking them up and bringing them to Wei Lin."

"I'll communicate with Wei Lin properly; he knows what to do."

"Once Wei Lin has finished his work, you can send him away for me. That's all."

Xiao Bing: "Okay, I understand!"

……

Half past ten in the morning.

Linjiang University.

With nothing to do, Wei Lin changed into a tracksuit, put on basketball shoes, and came to the court with a bright smile.

"Brother Wei."

"Brother Wei."

Lin Bo and Ni Yang were already waiting for him at the court, and they greeted him with smiles from afar as he approached.

"Are you two both ready?"

Wei Lin came over, took the ball, dribbled it a couple of times, looked at the players they had gathered, and said, "I'll just play for a little while. I need to go to my mom's place later to take a shower, change my clothes, and have dinner."

Lin Bo said, "Okay."

Halftime, 3v3 games were quickly set up.

Wei Lin, who has experienced multiple life advancements, greeted Lin Bo and Ni Yang in advance because he hadn't seen them in a long time and wanted to hang out with them at the university's basketball court.

He didn't exert much effort or try to show off; he simply enjoyed the sport.

As he was slightly sweating, he glanced at the basketball in his hand and saw a familiar tall figure coming from the school gate toward the basketball court.

It was Zhuang Qing!
Zhuang Qing, dressed simply and neatly in jeans, white sneakers, and a turtleneck sweater, was clearly not there to play ball with Lin Bo and Ni Yang.

Her eyes, which carried an inherent chilling aura, darted around and quickly locked onto Wei Lin.

"Lin Bo, you guys have fun."

Wei Lin chuckled dryly, tossed the basketball in his hand to Ni Yang, who was closest to him, picked up his sports bag from under the basketball hoop, and headed towards Zhuang Qing.

"Sister Qing!"

"Sister Qing is here!"

Lin Bo and Ni Yang greeted Zhuang Qing warmly with big smiles on their faces.

Zhuang Qing smiled faintly and nodded gently.

The people who had just played with Wei Lin, as well as the onlookers on the sidelines, were all staring at Zhuang Qing, secretly admiring her figure and appearance.

"Who?"

One person asked.

Ni Yang laughed and said, "Wei Ge's girlfriend. We often play basketball together at the gym. She plays basketball better than you, and her three-point shooting is much more accurate than yours."

Upon hearing this, everyone looked on with envy, saying that Wei Lin was truly blessed.

……

Wei Lin smiled warmly and, after reaching Zhuang Qing, asked, "Why are you here?"

Zhuang Qing looked at him with a resentful expression and said, "I haven't seen you in a while. Today is Saturday, and I thought you might come here, so I came to see if you would."

Feeling guilty, Wei Lin explained, "I have been quite busy lately."

Zhuang Qing pouted, gave a light snort, and said, "Actually, I came to see your mother. I didn't expect you to be here today."

Wei Lin was surprised: "Looking for my mother? You two...have seen each other recently?"

Zhuang Qing nodded: "Mm."
