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

Chapter 57 Please be patient a little longer, it will be soon.

Gu Yifan pushed open the door to the fire escape.

"Sister Fei, is something the matter?"

Hu Yifei leaned against the stair railing, arms crossed, her pretty face full of distress.

Gu Yifan waited patiently
Hu Yifei said quietly, "Could you please not tell anyone about what happened today?"

"What happened today?"

"Yes," Hu Yifei confessed, "it's about me following you."

If you make a mistake, admit it; if you get hit, stand firm.

Hu Yifei misunderstood Gu Yifan and Xinling, only to find out that she herself had dirty thoughts, which made her very embarrassed.

"This was my fault, I misunderstood you. But could you please not tell Wanyu and the others? It's too embarrassing." Hu Yifei's voice was firm.

Just make sure your eyes don't wander off.

"Oh." Gu Yifan nodded in realization. "You mean this?"

"I forgot, didn't we just bump into each other by chance?"

Hu Yifei looked at the serious-looking Gu Yifan with surprise.

"Yes, it was a chance encounter." Hu Yifei saved face. She breathed a sigh of relief and stared at Gu Yifan, who was smiling and leaning against the door.

This kid is quite sensible.

As Hu Yifei stared at Gu Yifan's face, an idea suddenly popped into her head.

"If I were a few years older, and if I didn't have a girlfriend, that would be great."

[Hallmaster Hu’s favorability +3]

[Currently, the favorability rating is 51 (Friendly)]

No one spoke.

For a moment, a slightly strange atmosphere filled the narrow stairwell.

"Thank you, Sister Fei, for helping Xinling find a job," Gu Yifan said proactively.

Hu Yifei then looked away, lowering her long eyelashes. "You can just call me Yifei. We're still roommates. Calling me Sister Fei makes me sound old."

Gu Yifan smiled and said, "Okay, Sister Yifei."

Hu Yifei glared at him with her beautiful eyes, then put her hands on her hips and said coquettishly, "You're doing this on purpose, aren't you?"

Gu Yifan shrugged.

Their eyes met again.

Looking into Gu Yifan's deep eyes, Hu Yifei fell silent again.

"Sister Yifei?"

Hu Yifei snapped out of her daze, turned her head away as if electrocuted, and walked away.

"Alright, that's all. You can go back by yourself later. I... I have something else to do."

"Also, don't make eye contact with me next time, especially when you do!"

Gu Yifan: "???"

What did he do wrong? He can't even laugh?
Do they even care about human rights anymore?

"Death, death, death!"

He feigned composure and fled through the door.

In the corridor, Hu Yifei's heart was still pounding, and she fanned her burning cheeks with her hand.

"This kid isn't doing this on purpose, is he? Hmm... probably not."

In just a few words, Hu Yifei had already lost her composure twice, something that had never happened before.

Blame it on Gu Yifan's smile, which seems to have a magical power to freeze people in place.

Hu Yifei quickly calmed down and began to worry about the new semester.

With Gu Yifan's captivating looks, he'd probably have most of the girls in the school completely mesmerized.

'How did this kid grow up? Every single thing about him seems to resonate with people's hearts.' Hu Yifei muttered to herself before leaving the teaching building.

Gu Yifan pushed open the door to the fire escape and walked out, watching Hu Yifei's figure disappear from sight.

"baffling."

Just then, Cyndi came out of the office, her pretty face flushed and her eyes filled with uncontrollable joy.

"how's it going?"

Before Gu Yifan could speak, Xinling rushed forward and threw herself into his arms. Xinling buried her face in Gu Yifan's chest, "Thank you, Brother Yifan."

The girl's voice trembled slightly.

"?!!"

Let's talk this out. What are you doing?

Feeling the girl's soft, warm body, Gu Yifan was taken aback. A faint fragrance wafted over, and Xinling felt light, like a ball of cotton.

After letting Xinling hug him for a while, Gu Yifan reached out and patted the girl's shoulder.

"It's good that you succeeded; people will see it."

Hearing this, the girl in his arms hugged him even tighter before letting go and taking a step back.

Xinling's pretty face turned bright red. The courage that had suddenly arisen in her heart had been used up. She lowered her head, not daring to look at Gu Yifan, and said softly, "I'm sorry, I was too happy."

Xinling's job is to help teachers enter information. She can also move into the dormitory in advance. The salary or allowance is not much, but Xinling is already very satisfied.

If I cancel the lease, I can save some money.

"As long as you find a job, that's fine."

Gu Yifan nodded, and just then the system notification sounded.

You successfully helped Jiaxin Ling find a teaching assistant job at Tongji University, although it was through Master Hu's introduction, your role was minimal.

When you practice your skills, you will receive feedback that your mental state has improved, making it easier to break through bottlenecks in your cultivation.

As usual, Gu Yifan ignored the system's negative comments and only looked at the results.

He was initially worried about how to find candied hawthorns and how many he would need to eat, but now it seems he has solved the problem of breaking through his level.

Although he hasn't acquired any magical powers yet.

Xinling kept the contact information of that teacher, Mr. Liu, and she could handle the rest herself, so Gu Yifan didn't ask any further questions.

The two began their return journey in silence.

Xinling kept her head down, trying to calm herself down, but she couldn't suppress the smile on her face.

She herself was surprised by her boldness just now, but Xinling didn't regret it.

Gu Yifan, on the other hand, was feeling sleepy because he had gone to bed too late and woke up a little early.

The subway on the way back was packed with people.

Fortunately, the two were lucky; after only a few stops, someone got up and got off the bus.

The two quickly sat down, though it was a bit crowded.

"Brother Yifan, are you feeling cramped? Let me get up." Xinling whispered sweetly as she approached Gu Yifan, her breath tickling his ear.

Xinling gave Gu Yifan a new nickname.

Gu Yifan didn't refuse, which was considered an acceptance of the title, as it was better than "Classmate Gu".

"No need." Gu Yifan shook his head and yawned.

Xinling nodded and remained silent, but the two seemed to press even closer together.

There was nothing he could do but bear with it. Gu Yifan didn't care much. He figured that when he got back, Lin Wanyu would probably be awake, so he could take a nap.

Just consider it a break for yourself.

Gu Yifan doesn't have any plans to start a business yet, probably because he has enough money to spend right now.

The asset growth arrived yesterday, along with the rebates from spending money on Cyndi and Lin Wanyu.

Forget about building a career; figuring out how to spend money reasonably for the two of them is the most important thing.

system hint.

[Money rebates can be converted into spiritual energy cultivation points or source stones at a certain ratio.]

What a joke! What use would he have for spirit stones? If the system gave him a bunch of useless stones, where would Gu Yifan go to cry?

However, the spiritual energy rebate is possible.

Gu Yifan decided to wait and see. The rate at which his spiritual energy was increasing far exceeded the rate at which he was breaking through his bottleneck, so it was more worthwhile to cash out.

As Gu Yifan was thinking, the subway started moving, and he felt a weight on his shoulder.

Turning his head, he noticed Xinling's head was leaning close to his, her eyes darting away, avoiding his gaze. "The car was moving."

"Should I get up?" Gu Yifan asked hesitantly.

"No, no need, I'll be getting off soon," Xinling said quickly, her beautiful eyes sparkling.

"Please be patient a little longer. It will be over soon."
