I'm in Love Apartment, and the system is making me cultivate immortality.

The second floor of the bar.

Ziqiao and Zhang Wei returned to the second floor.

The crowd that had just witnessed the two men's defeat sat back down, looking on with amusement as they watched the two men make a fool of themselves.

Zhang Wei was crestfallen, feeling utterly humiliated.

Ziqiao, however, acted as if nothing had happened, showing no sign of being discouraged by the defeat.

"How about it, Qiao? You've been completely overshadowed, haven't you?" Lin Wanyu asked with a grin first.

"Who was it that just now said that as soon as they appeared, they could attract all the girls' attention!" Ms. Hu, with her legs crossed, followed Wan Yu and teased Zi Qiao.

Previously, Ziqiao had always boasted that he was the most handsome playboy in the apartment.

Note that he is a prodigal son.

Gu Yifan isn't the most handsome because he's not as dissolute as Ziqiao.

"I...I've made mistakes, even the best of us can slip up!" Ziqiao said, his expression showing some embarrassment, but he was still unconvinced.

"I've analyzed the reasons!"

"Half of the reason is that Zhang Wei, my wingman, is no good. His poor performance dragged me down. The other half is that I haven't had time to change my uniform yet!"

Gu Yifan silently complained to Wanyu, "Ziqiao always blames others for his mistakes and never admits his own."

"Alright, Ziqiao, I didn't ask you to compete with others, I just wanted you to test the waters and see how it goes," Miss Qin said, taking a sip of her wine and acting as a peacemaker.

“I think Neo is pretty normal. He knows a lot about fashion, so he probably wouldn’t cheat people out of money or sex,” Zhang Wei said honestly.

But Ziqiao immediately shouted, "Zhang Wei, shut up!"

"Based on my judgment, this kid is most likely that womanizer!"

"Why?" everyone asked in unison.

"Hey Ziqiao, your judgment criteria aren't just because you can't beat others and you're getting angry and embarrassed, are they?" Teacher Zeng mocked Ziqiao mercilessly.

"Hehe, Teacher Zeng, do you know why you still don't have a girlfriend? It's because you're so narrow-minded!" Ziqiao rolled his eyes.

As the saying goes, women love bad boys, and the more handsome a man is, the worse he is!

"This guy looks like he's designed to seduce women. He's definitely laying the groundwork, waiting to cast a wide net and catch a lot of fish!"

"Wait, why do I feel like you're targeting me?" Gu Yifan was annoyed at being insulted for no reason.

Although he wasn't exactly an honest man, he was definitely not a bad person.

“Well, among so many people at Dongda University, there are always a few exceptions,” Ziqiao said with a shrug.

"Come on, Ziqiao, your idea is completely unfounded. I think you're just jealous of her." Ms. Hu was too lazy to listen to Ziqiao's nonsense.

Ms. Qin analyzed, "Based on the information we have gathered so far, this Neo has a legitimate job as a fashion stylist and is probably quite wealthy. It's not very likely that he's a womanizer."

"So I don't have any scenes?" Youyou asked, somewhat disappointed.

She was still waiting to go up and chat up that handsome guy.

"Wait, give me another chance!" Ziqiao tried to struggle when he saw that he had been abandoned.

"It's just a pose, I'll make this kid cry in a very rhythmic way!"

After saying that, Ziqiao turned to Zhang Wei and said, "Zhang Wei, let's go!"

"You're still looking for me? Ziqiao, please forgive me." Zhang Wei looked resistant. He had just been tricked by Ziqiao into going up there and humiliating himself.

I'm not going no matter what.

“Zhang Wei, if you were sitting here now, you would always be just a loser wearing tattered shorts you bought for twenty yuan from a street stall. But if you follow me, you can become a trendsetter at the forefront of fashion!”

Are you sure you want to give up this opportunity?

"Zhang Wei, don't listen to Ziqiao's nonsense," Hu Yifei said, rolling her eyes.

Zeng Xiaoxian, however, seemed interested upon hearing this, but was too embarrassed to speak up. He coughed and said, "Actually, Ziqiao, I think you could choose another wingman who is more classic, more cooperative, and more reliable."

Ziqiao tilted his head and looked at Teacher Zeng expressionlessly.

"Teacher Zeng, you..."

"Me?" Zeng Xiaoxian looked at Ziqiao expectantly.

But then Ziqiao suddenly turned his head and said, "I'm sorry, Teacher Zeng, your physical attributes already determine that you are not up to much use. Just accept your fate."

Zeng Xiaoxian's expression froze, then quickly turned a deep red like a pig's liver. "You bastard! Ziqiao, what do you mean by this?!"

"Don't you understand? Look at those top models, none of them have short legs and long torsos~ Hahahaha!" Ms. Hu laughed so hard she almost fell over.

When Zhang Wei saw that Teacher Zeng actually wanted to take his wingman position, he actually believed Zi Qiao's lies again.

"Don't worry, Zhang Wei, I will definitely lead you to greatness again this time!"

Watching Ziqiao and Zhang Wei leave without looking back, to buy new clothes, and then come back to fight Neo to the death.

Everyone felt that he was unreliable.

"I think it would be best to try again," Ms. Hu suggested.

Youyou's eyes lit up, and she exclaimed excitedly, "Does that mean I'll get a chance to shine?"

"Well, Youyou, you're more reliable than your nephew, understand?" Miss Qin patted Youyou's shoulder solemnly.

Youyou beamed with joy, "Don't worry, leaders, I will definitely live up to your expectations and the people's trust!"

Gu Yifan then asked a question, "That Snow Wolf Warrior, no, Neo, was surrounded by so many girls, how did Youyou manage to stand out from all that?"

Hearing this, Ms. Hu smiled slyly, "That's easy, Zeng Xiaoxian, I have something for you."

"Me?" Disheartened, Teacher Zeng pointed to herself in surprise.

"what?"

Ms. Hu beckoned with her finger, and Teacher Zeng listened hesitantly.

"Is this okay?"

"Go quickly, it will definitely work!"

The first floor of the bar.

It was still very lively. As the night progressed, the nightlife officially began, and even more handsome men and beautiful women came to visit.

Moonlight Bar is known for its unique, subtly luxurious decor, as well as the popular saying that it's frequented by many handsome men and beautiful women.

It became an instant hit.

This even exceeded Gu Yifan's expectations.

What's most ridiculous is that Joey even came all the way here to ask Gu Yifan for instructions.

Many customers have complained that the drinks here are too cheap and are demanding a price increase.

At first, Gu Yifan thought he had misheard. Who would think it was too cheap and ask for a price increase?

The result is true.

Joey explained the reason: most of the trendy men and women who come here are not short of money, and they just want to show off.

Although the bar had a good atmosphere and met their requirements, the drinks were too cheap, which made them feel it wasn't high-end enough.

It's outrageous, yet surprisingly reasonable.
Gu Yifan certainly wouldn't raise prices directly, but he also had no reason to turn away customers, so he asked Joey to create a new menu.

The items are similar, but the earlier ones are all expensive. If you want something cheaper, scroll down to the later ones.

It satisfies the needs of the nouveau riche to show off, while also catering to regular customers—a win-win situation.

After changing the menu, the bar's business actually improved.
It's no wonder it's the Shanghai Stock Exchange.

It's too far off topic.

Just as the guests were enjoying the nightlife, a furtive figure appeared at the door and suddenly shouted in a high-pitched voice.

"The luxury stores over there are having tons of bags at 50% off! Hurry and grab them!"

Upon hearing this, the beautiful women who had been sitting around the bar immediately lit up and rushed out of the bar.

Before Neo could react, all the girls around him had vanished. "..."

Neo looked surprised, paused for a moment, then sat down again to continue enjoying his cocktail.

Let's take advantage of this good opportunity.

Pulled aside by Wan Yu and Yu Mo, Youyou quickly redid her makeup and walked nervously to Neo's side.

Hi, is anyone here?

"Hmm?" Neo turned around and saw Youyou looking a little shy. He nodded. "No one's here. Please have a seat."

Youyou was immediately delighted and quickly sat down. "Great! Hello handsome guy, my name is Tang Youyou, what's your name?"

"Just call me Neo."

"Hmm, handsome, what do you do?"

"Miss, are you checking my household registration?"

Upon hearing this, Youyou blushed immediately, "This... I'm sorry."

"It's okay, I'm a fashion stylist."

The second floor.

Those who had been secretly watching this scene breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that Youyou had successfully started chatting with Neo.

"It's done! See, I told you, it's important to do your eye makeup at the last minute!" Miss Qin felt she had made a great contribution.

“But I think it’s too heavy and doesn’t suit Sister Youyou’s face shape. On the contrary, my lipstick is the most suitable one,” Lin Wanyu retorted to Miss Qin with a smile.

"Wait, Wanyu, what do you mean by that? Are you questioning a former senior consultant at a beauty company?"

"No, not really, but from a fashion perspective, Sister Yu Mo, you should listen to me!"

".snort!"

"Slightly (sticks out tongue)"

Gu Yifan and Ms. Hu exchanged a glance, both able to see the helplessness in each other's eyes.

"You two stop arguing and keep an eye on things. If that man tries anything with Youyou, I'll go down and cripple him!" Ms. Hu said sternly.

Lin Wanyu and Miss Qin were still not convinced and quietly prepared to return to their apartment to compete to see who was the most fashionable, a contest that would determine who was superior and who would lose!

Gu Yifan stopped Ms. Hu and advised her to let them go, since Wan Yu and Yu Mo had already completed their mission.

The two continued to stake out on the second floor, quietly observing Youyou's every move as she chatted with Neo at the bar downstairs.

Fortunately, the worst outcome did not occur.

On the contrary, the two seemed to be having a very pleasant and congenial conversation.

This made Gu Yifan somewhat worried about Guan Gu, as Guan Gu was very likely to be cheated on.

Although Guan Gu is not bad either, he is the Snow Wolf Warrior.

I wonder if Youyou will be able to withstand the organization's test?

Almost another hour has passed.

Neo glanced at his watch, seemingly preparing to say goodbye and leave. The two also successfully exchanged contact information.

As 'Snow Mastiff Warrior' was leaving, he looked up at the second floor and smiled when he saw the two people staring at the bar.

Gu Yifan and Ms. Hu quickly pulled their heads back.
I watched Neo walk away.

Looking at Youyou again, she was still standing by the bar, looking towards the door, smiling and waving.
In Youyou's smile, shyness revealed joy, joy revealed a faint hint of a young girl's first love, and in that first love, there was a certain flutter of the heart.

Gu Yifan sensed something was wrong and quickly nudged Hu Yifei's arm, giving Ms. Hu a meaningful look.

Hu Yifei understood immediately.

The two quickly went downstairs and quietly approached Tang Youyou, who was still grinning foolishly.

He suddenly shouted.

"long!"

"Ah!" Youyou quickly turned around and saw that it was Gu Yifan and Hu Yifei. She breathed a sigh of relief and patted her chest in complaint.

"Yifan, Yifei, you scared me!"

"You scared me!" Ms. Hu stared intently at Youyou and asked in a low voice, "You haven't fallen for her, have you? Mission! Remember, all of this is for the mission! Everything else is secondary!"

Youyou blushed slightly and quickly retorted, "No way! I'm just playing the role of an innocent young girl in love. What if he suddenly comes back for a surprise attack!"

"I'm just worried that you're getting too into character, Youyou," Gu Yifan said quietly.

"No, don't worry." Youyou immediately replied with a grin, "With a handsome guy like you, I'm already immune to good looks. Besides, I'm an actress! I've seen plenty of handsome guys."

Gu Yifan and Hu Yifei were finally relieved.

Just then, two people dressed as if they were going to perform on Broadway walked into the bar.

Standing at the door, looking left and right.

Gu Yifan looked at the two of them, and his expression immediately became strange.

"Ziqiao? Zhang Wei?"

Although they were recognized, the two comedic characters refused to admit it, insisting on imitating Guan Gu's accent and saying they were foreign tourists from Italy.

Until curious Youyou asked Ziqiao.

"Nephew, what's that caterpillar on your mouth?"

Ziqiao finally broke down.

"Damn, that's a beard! A beard!!!"

"Alright, you two, everyone's gone, what are you pretending for?" Ms. Hu said.

"What! He's gone! What are you doing? I dressed up so stylishly just to have a showdown with that guy, and you let him get away!" Ziqiao complained incessantly.

However, after Ms. Hu left a conspicuous handprint on the railing, Ziqiao learned to keep quiet.

Wait until we get back upstairs.

Hu Yifei couldn't wait to ask Youyou how she was doing.

"Yeah, we got along really well. Neo is really amazing. He's participated in a lot of international modeling competitions, and many celebrities have had him do their styling."

Youyou thought for a moment and said, her tone carrying a hint of admiration.

"Stop! I'm asking Youyou if you think he's a suspect!" Ms. Hu quickly interrupted Youyou.

Gu Yifan nodded in agreement.

I thought to myself that I couldn't let Youyou continue like this; curiosity is the beginning of a girl's downfall!

"Oh, oh," Youyou said shyly, "I don't think he's a womanizer, because he said he just returned to the country not long ago, and the timing doesn't match up."

Hearing this, Ziqiao suddenly interjected, "Wait! Are you sure this guy said he just returned to China?"

"What, you two are allowed to come back from Robin's hometown, but he's not allowed to go abroad?" Yifei said impatiently.

"Wrong! You really thought I was just getting my hair and makeup done?" Ziqiao said, heartbroken.

Zhang Wei asked quietly, "Isn't that right?"

“Zhang Wei, shut up!” Zi Qiao said confidently, “I even asked Xiao Hei to help me check this guy’s personal information!”

"What information?" Gu Yifan asked curiously.

"Ta-da!" Ziqiao pulled out a piece of paper from somewhere. "This guy is just an ordinary makeup artist. He used to work in the wedding industry, taking wedding photos for brides and grooms. Later, he started his own studio and does styling design!"

"So, he's never been abroad! Let alone participated in any fashion competitions!"

"Ah!" Youyou exclaimed in disbelief, "Could it be...could it be that he's lying to me?!"

Ms. Hu's gaze suddenly sharpened.

"Hmph! If that's the case, then this kid is highly suspicious!" (End of Chapter)
