Brush Up Your Proficiency

#163 - Proficiency +1

Under Wang Hao's forceful suppression, Li Qiang and his wife swallowed back their words of gratitude and walked home with Wang Hao, chatting and laughing.

After parting ways with Li Qiang and his wife and returning to his own room, Wang Hao let out a long breath. This kind of being thanked so grandly made him feel a little overwhelmed.

But then he smiled. He quite liked the feeling of helping people in need when he had the ability to do so.

"Brother, you're back! Why are you so late today?" Wang Lan's voice came as soon as Wang Hao entered the door.

"Something came up today and delayed me. Didn't I tell you to go to sleep first? You don't have to wait for me!" Wang Hao said with a bit of complaint while changing his shoes.

Wang Lan naturally chose to be selectively deaf and gave Wang Hao a funny face.

Considering that his sister had been studying at home all day and had no one to chat with, she must have been really bored. Wang Hao could only sit down and keep her company, watching TV and listening to her chat.

Wang Lan talked about some trivial activities of the day and also mentioned her postgraduate entrance examination.

She asked some alumni about their postgraduate entrance examination status today. Some were the same as she had thought before, directly signing up for postgraduate entrance examination classes.

Some classmates also planned to stay at school during their senior year, both to attend some professors' classes and to freely travel between the postgraduate entrance examination classes and the school.

Wang Lan said that she preferred the latter because she could prepare for the exam with familiar classmates. Having someone to communicate with and supervise would be much more efficient.

However, she was really reluctant to leave Wang Hao and his cooking, which made her feel very conflicted.

Wang Hao looked at his sister helplessly upon hearing this and couldn't help but gently pat her forehead, smiling and saying:

"You only know how to eat. Studying is the most important thing. Besides, it's not too far from here to your school. You can come back anytime you want to eat. Besides, that car is idle anyway. Once you pass your driving test, it's yours, and it will be convenient to go back and forth!"

Ever since Cheng Yufei gave the car to Wang Hao last time, it had been parked in the garage downstairs and hadn't been moved.

At Wang Lan's insistence, Wang Hao took her to the garage to experience the charm of the car, and his sister revealed a look of yearning. Young people, who doesn't like cars? Wang Hao simply took advantage of the opportunity and gave it to Wang Lan directly.

"Really! That's great! I'll sign up for a fast-track driving school tomorrow. Brother, you're so cool!" Wang Lan said and was about to give Wang Hao a big hug, but Wang Hao stopped her with one hand.

"What's so cool about it? Go to sleep quickly, it's so late. If this were back home, Mom and Dad would have started nagging!" Wang Hao held Wang Lan's forehead with one hand, preventing her from getting any closer, and then quickly urged her.

Seeing that she couldn't break through her brother's defense, Wang Lan didn't insist anymore, smiling with a 'hehe' expression, her excited emotions overflowing.

Wang Hao shook his head helplessly, looking at his crazy sister, he couldn't do anything about it. He left her to be excited alone in the living room, while he went to wash up and prepare to read and sleep.

Wang Lan, whose excitement was just beginning, directly called her best friend Tang Yan and told her the good news.

And Wang Hao, who was washing up, only heard a burst of laughter, followed by a series of exaggerated interjections.

This left Wang Hao speechless, feeling that he shouldn't have said those words just now. Now it was good, it was impossible to get his sister to go to sleep.

The appeal of a car to a young person is huge. Thinking back to when he was young, if he could have gotten a car, he would have probably gone crazy and driven around the whole village a few times before stopping, his excitement even greater than Wang Lan's now.

"Oh... miscalculation, miscalculation!" Wang Hao shook his head slightly, then stopped paying attention and let her be. Anyway, she didn't have to go to work tomorrow.

Ignoring Wang Lan, who was frantically showing off, Wang Hao returned to his room, picked up the first volume of "Lao Zhuang," found a comfortable position, and started reading.

As the Intermediate Reading skill began to operate, Wang Hao felt that familiar aura again, and his body began to soften, and his whole person relaxed.

Those dreamlike scenes in his mind allowed him to be unknowingly immersed in them, and his brain simultaneously sent out bursts of pleasant information, and his mental power was gradually increasing.

As his mental power grew stronger and stronger, Wang Hao clearly felt that his page-turning speed was also gradually increasing. After a few days of studying, he had read one-twentieth of the first volume of "Lao Zhuang." It was conceivable that the subsequent reading speed would become faster and faster.

In this immersion, Wang Hao naturally entered a dreamland. In his dream, he seemed to be in those fantastic worlds, appreciating scenery different from reality.

"Congratulations, you have read an ancient book and gained an insight bonus. Intermediate Reading proficiency +21, current proficiency: Intermediate Reading 60/1000"

Time flew by quickly. When he woke up the next day, Wang Hao checked the results of last night as usual.

He saw in the plug-in prompt that the position that he originally felt should be proficiency +20 had now become +21. This change surprised him a bit, but he felt that it was reasonable in the dark.

After all, he now clearly felt that his mental power had become much stronger, and the speed of switching illusions at night had also increased. With both pieces of information improving, if the increase in proficiency was still the same, he would have felt a little abnormal instead.

Looking at the number 21, Wang Hao nodded slightly. This feeling of constant change was the style that the plug-in should have. He was now used to it.

The occurrence of this change made Wang Hao feel that the morning light outside the window was a bit more beautiful.

Wang Hao carefully put away "Lao Zhuang" before walking out of the room to wash up.

Considering that his sister went to bed too late last night, Wang Hao's movements were very careful, for fear of disturbing Wang Lan.

Closing the kitchen door, Wang Hao began to tiptoe around making breakfast.

When the breakfast was completed, he gained 6 points of cooking skill proficiency. For the current wealthy Wang Hao, although these 6 points of proficiency were better than nothing, even mosquito legs are meat, and he wouldn't dislike them.

Putting his sister's breakfast away, Wang Hao ate his breakfast slowly and carefully before gently opening the door and embarking on the road to the restaurant.

It wasn't until after ten o'clock in the morning that Wang Lan woke up. Seeing the empty room, she realized that Wang Hao had already gone to the restaurant. She felt a little disappointed that she hadn't had breakfast with Wang Hao.

But when she walked into the kitchen, when she saw the breakfast that Wang Hao had carefully prepared for her, the smile that belonged to Wang Lan reappeared on her face.

Wang Lan quickly picked up her phone and took a flurry of pictures of the breakfast, then posted it on her Moments with a wave of sentimentality. The beauty of her words and the depth of her emotions caused her Moments to constantly pop up comment prompts.

After her emotions were vented, Wang Lan happily began to taste this loving meal.
