Simultaneous Transmigration: From Douluo Continent to the Pinnacle
Chapter 164 Arriving at Love Apartment, Shy
In the police car, Mo Lan glanced at Lu Zhanbo beside her, then looked through the rearview mirror at Lin Yao and Lin Wanyu in the back seat and asked:
"You two? Weren't you scared by that guy who was speeding just now?"
Lin Yao, sitting in the back seat, nodded slightly.
"Thank you for your concern, officer. We are all fine. The BMW stopped far away and did not affect us."
Lin Wanyu, standing beside him, recalled witnessing the BMW's ability to brake in time at extremely high speeds and also spoke up in response:
"Yeah, although that uncle was wrong to drink and speed, his driving skills were pretty good, just like that uncle who drove the go-kart before."
"What go-karts? I just saw a BMW and a tractor, where did these go-karts come from? Did you just see one of these?"
Hearing the excitement in Lin Wanyu's words, and the go-karts she mentioned, Lu Zhanbo, sitting in the passenger seat, couldn't help but look up, somewhat bewildered.
How did this get involved with go-karts again?
But it's hard to bring it up.
Moran looked at the three of them, and couldn't help but smile.
These three young people were simply too eye-catching.
Even the most unassuming Lu Zhanbo, dressed in a simple white T-shirt and jeans, with a tall and upright figure and clean-cut features, was of above-average appearance.
Not to mention Lin Yao and Lin Wanyu in the back seat.
Lin Yao has a handsome face and exudes a calm and composed demeanor.
Lin Wanyu is stunningly beautiful. When she smiles, two shallow dimples appear on her cheeks, making her irresistibly charming to anyone who sees her.
Such outstanding looks, coupled with her clean and comfortable demeanor.
Moran's initial frustration from dealing with the accident subsided considerably, and her tone became increasingly amiable:
"What kind of go-karts are you talking about?"
"It's go-karting."
Lin Wanyu answered as a matter of course.
"Officer, it's that tractor from before."
At this moment, Lin Yao added a sentence.
Upon hearing this, even Mo Lan, with her personality, couldn't help but be stunned, let alone Lu Zhanbo.
After a few seconds of awkward silence, Moran quickly changed the subject, and the atmosphere in the carriage gradually warmed up.
Mo Lan was talkative, Lin Yao responded appropriately, and Lin Wanyu occasionally chimed in with a word or two.
Even the usually dull Lu Zhanbo would light up with excitement and start talking nonstop when discussing computer-related topics.
Just then, a cheerful cell phone ringtone broke the harmony in the carriage.
Moran freed one hand to answer the phone, and as soon as she said "feed," her brows involuntarily furrowed.
The familiar nagging voice of Moran's mother came from the other end of the phone, urging her to go on a blind date, saying that the other party was a doctor with good conditions and that she must make time to meet him.
"Okay, okay, Mom, I'm still at work..."
Moran's voice betrayed an undisguised frustration.
After hanging up the phone, I couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
He turned his head to look at Lu Zhanbo in the passenger seat, and then glanced at Lin Yao and Lin Wanyu in the back seat.
Noticing the curious looks from the group, and without trying to hide it, she complained somewhat helplessly.
"Sigh, tell me, are all parents like this nowadays? They force their children to go on blind dates as soon as they reach a certain age, it's never-ending."
"I understand, I understand."
Lin Wanyu seemed to have found a kindred spirit; her eyes lit up, and she leaned forward, her tone full of agreement.
"I ran away because my family made me go on blind dates."
In this regard, Lin Yao and Lu Zhanbo, the two boys, didn't feel much about it.
The former transmigrated right after graduation, arriving in an urban world where both parents died at the start, leaving him in a precarious situation. This is one of the impacts of the transmigration.
As for Lu Zhanbo, he studied at MIT and just graduated, so he doesn't have this problem.
All I could do was watch the two of them chat.
Afterwards, Lin Wanyu and Mo Lan found common ground and got along very well, eventually calling each other sisters.
Mo Lan calls Lin Wanyu "Wanyu sister", and Lin Wanyu calls Mo Lan "Mo Lan sister", their warm greeting is like that of friends who have known each other for many years.
Lin Yao, sitting in the back seat, didn't join their conversation. He simply leaned back in his chair, his gaze lingering on the two people in front of him.
Moran, dressed in a police uniform, stood tall and spoke and acted decisively, exuding a strong and assertive presence that rivaled any man.
Although Lu Zhanbo may seem a bit dull, his eyes are focused when he talks about professional knowledge, and his words are logically clear, revealing a gentle yet firm personality.
One is a dashing policewoman, the other a computer genius who graduated from MIT. This contrast is strangely fitting.
A faint smile appeared on Lin Yao's lips; he already had a plan in mind.
Meanwhile, after sharing her troubles, Moran also paid attention to the reactions of others, while a mind-blowing idea popped into her head.
Her gaze first fell on Lin Yao in the back seat. Seeing him and Lin Wanyu sitting side by side, a handsome man and a pretty woman, she sighed inwardly.
The two of them didn't seem to be facing any pressure to get married.
Lin Yao and Wan Yu are obviously a couple, so I can't get involved at all.
Let's look at Lu Zhanbo in the passenger seat.
Although he lacks some of Lin Yao's composure, he is clean-cut, honest, and a good candidate.
You could at least "get a sip of tender soup".
Thinking this, Moran's gaze towards Lu Zhanbo instantly changed, and she immediately asked, seemingly casually:
"Zhanbo, you're pretty impressive, MIT graduate. Did you have a girlfriend in school?"
Lu Zhanbo was taken aback by the sudden question, and then blankly replied:
"No, I like to study and do research here, so I haven't thought that much about it yet."
Hearing Lu Zhanbo's answer, Mo Lan was overjoyed.
As for Lin Yao, he also noticed their conversation and roughly understood Mo Lan's thoughts, so he immediately went along with it and said:
"Officer Moran, actually, if you want to temporarily escape the blind dates your family is setting you up on, there are ways."
Moran's eyes lit up upon hearing this, and she quickly asked, "What method? Tell me quickly."
Lu Zhanbo and Lin Wanyu also turned to look at him, their eyes full of curiosity.
Lin Yao pointed to Lu Zhanbo beside him, his tone frank:
"You can have Zhanbo pretend to be your boyfriend. That way, your family will have an explanation and won't force you to go on blind dates anymore. Once things have calmed down, you can find an excuse to break up."
The carriage fell silent instantly upon hearing this.
Lu Zhanbo froze, and the tablet computer in his hand fell to his lap with a "thud".
His eyes widened, staring at Lin Yao in disbelief, his mouth slightly agape, like a computer that had crashed.
"W-What's going on? Me? Pretending to be my boyfriend? How did I end up being the one doing this?"
Lu Zhanbo, who had no experience in this area, frantically gestured with his fingers on his leg, clearly quite taken aback by the suggestion.
Moran was also stunned. She lowered her head and pondered for a moment, her fingers unconsciously rubbing her chin.
It must be said that Lin Yao's suggestion, though bold, is indeed very feasible.
Lu Zhanbo is good-looking and highly educated; bringing him home would definitely shut up his family.
Thinking this, she looked at Lu Zhanbo with a more thoughtful expression.
On the other hand, what was said without malice was taken seriously by the listener.
Hearing this suggestion, Lin Wanyu, sitting in the back seat, felt a ripple in her heart.
She stole a glance at Lin Yao beside her; the boy's profile was exceptionally clear and handsome in the afternoon sunlight.
if……
If I and Ayao pretended to be a couple, would we be able to get rid of all those annoying arrangements from our families?
The moment the thought crossed Lin Wanyu's mind, her cheeks flushed bright red, like a ripe apple.
She quickly shook her head vigorously, thinking to herself:
"No, no, this is too embarrassing..."
Her head was bowed low, her hands were clasped together in front of her, her left hand pressed tightly against the back of her right hand, and her shoulders were shrugging slightly.
Her shy and adorable appearance made you want to tease her.
Lin Yao noticed the strangeness in the person beside him, turned his head to look at her, his brows furrowing slightly, and he wondered to himself:
What's wrong with this young lady again? Why is she suddenly blushing?
Just then, Moran finally made up his mind.
She was always decisive and efficient; once she made a decision, she wouldn't hesitate. She turned to look at Lu Zhanbo, extended her hand, and said in a cheerful tone:
"Hey, idiot, this is a good idea, it's settled then. What's your phone number? I'll save it for later, and contact you if I need anything."
Lu Zhanbo was still in shock.
He looked at Moran's outstretched hand, then at Lin Yao's encouraging gaze, hesitated for a long time, and finally slowly gave out his phone number.
Moran quickly saved the number and even added a "temporary boyfriend" label to his contact information, causing Lu Zhanbo to scramble to make a move.
The police car slowly pulled up at the intersection near the wedding venue, and Moran waved to the three of them:
"Alright, that's all for now. Have fun. I'll get in touch with you later, you idiot."
"knew……"
Lu Zhanbo gave a mumbled reply, then pushed open the car door and ran off into the distance as if something was chasing him.
"I'm going to find my sister."
Watching his retreating figure, the three people in the carriage couldn't help but laugh.
Lin Wanyu held Lin Yao's arm, her eyes sparkling as she looked at the lively crowd not far away:
"Ah Yao, let's go join the fun. I heard this wedding is really interesting."
Lin Yao smiled helplessly and let her pull him into the crowd: "Walk slowly, don't fall."
The two had only taken a few steps when they were stopped by a woman in a red dress.
The woman had short, neat hair, bright eyes and a powerful aura; she was Lu Zhanbo's older sister, Hu Yifei.
She had just seen off a group of guests when she turned around and saw Lin Wanyu, and her eyes immediately lit up.
Hu Yifei looked Lin Wanyu up and down, her eyes full of admiration.
She's beautiful and has a great temperament; she's clearly a good girl.
But when her gaze fell on Lin Yao next to Lin Wanyu, she couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.
Handsome and tall, with a calm demeanor, he and Lin Wanyu were a match made in heaven.
Previously, she had heard her younger brother, Lu Zhanbo, say that he had met a very handsome guy and a very beautiful girl on the street.
Now it seems that it should be the two people in front of us.
I originally thought my younger brother had a chance.
My brother, who has extremely low emotional intelligence, was able to unintentionally emphasize that the woman was beautiful, which clearly meant she was very beautiful.
There may be other thoughts in their minds.
However, compared to this outstanding young man, his dull-witted younger brother probably had little chance.
Thinking this, Hu Yifei sighed inwardly.
However, Hu Yifei felt a little regretful, but she didn't show it on her face at all. She maintained a polite smile and spoke in a friendly tone:
"You must be Zhanbo's friends? I'm his sister, Hu Yifei. I'm so sorry, I'm busy greeting guests and can't keep you company."
She paused, then turned and called out to a man in a suit not far away:
"Zeng Xiaoxian, come here for a second."
Upon hearing this, Zeng Xiaoxian ran over with his signature smile on his face. He looked glib and slick, yet also somewhat comical.
Upon seeing that besides Hu Yifei, there were also two unfamiliar young people, Lin Yao and Lin Wanyu, he immediately straightened his tie and tidied his appearance.
"Yifei, what's up?"
Zeng Xiaoxian leaned closer and asked, and when he got really close, he saw the outstanding looks and temperament of Lin Yao and Lin Wanyu, and his eyes immediately lit up.
"These two are Zhanbo's friends, please help them receive him."
Hu Yifei pointed at the two of them, gave a few more quick instructions, and then turned to greet the other guests.
Zeng Xiaoxian quickly stepped forward and warmly shook hands with the two of them:
"Hello, hello. My name is Zeng Xiaoxian. I am a resident here and the vice chairman of the apartment residents' committee under the subdistrict office."
He emphasized his position, his tone tinged with pride.
After chatting for a while, Zeng Xiaoxian learned that Lin Wanyu had come looking for Love Apartment, and then he saw the two of them standing together.
The man was handsome and the woman was beautiful.
With a natural intimacy in their gestures, they immediately smiled knowingly and winked, saying:
"Oh my, you two are a couple, right? That's such a coincidence. Love Apartment just recently launched a special offer: couples who stay there get half-price rent and free utilities. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!"
He patted his chest, his tone full of conviction:
"If you want to check in, just let me know. I guarantee I'll arrange everything perfectly for you."
Upon hearing the words "couples checking in," Lin Yao didn't react much, only raising an eyebrow without saying anything.
Two blushes appeared on Lin Wanyu's beautiful face, and when she thought of Lin Yao and Zeng Xiaoxian beside her, she couldn't help but lower her head to cover herself.
At the same time, his hands were tightly clasped in front of him, his left hand pressing against the back of his right hand, his fingers slightly curled, as if he wanted to say something but couldn't.
She wanted to say that she and Lin Yao were not a couple, but the words stuck in her throat.
Looking at the handsome profile of the young man beside her, her heart inexplicably quickened. Her lips moved, but in the end, she said nothing.
Seeing Lin Wanyu's shy appearance, Zeng Xiaoxian became even more certain.
This girl definitely has feelings for Lin Yao. Even if they're not a couple now, they're not far from becoming one.
Thinking this, Zeng Xiaoxian smiled and waved his hand, going along with it:
"It's okay, it's okay. Even if it's not now, it might be in the future. This benefit is valid at any time."
Lin Yao looked at the girl's reddened ears and smiled helplessly to himself.
He didn't have any ill feelings towards Lin Wanyu; on the contrary, he had quite a bit of goodwill towards her, so naturally he didn't intend to reject her.
He nodded slightly, his tone frank:
"Then I'll have to trouble you."
"No trouble at all."
Zeng Xiaoxian smiled so hard his eyes narrowed into slits, and patted his chest to assure him.
"Leave it to me. I'll make sure you check in smoothly."
As the vice chairman of the residents' committee, he thought that if he could win over these two young men and get their support, he could succeed.
From now on, I'll be able to outdo Hu Yifei in the apartment.
At that time, I will be the real person in charge of Love Apartment.
Thinking this, Zeng Xiaoxian couldn't help but laugh out loud with pride, the laughter sounding particularly abrupt in the lively crowd.
Lin Yao and Lin Wanyu looked at him simultaneously, their eyes flashing with an ambiguous meaning.
Why did you suddenly start laughing?
Noticing the subtle glances from the two, Zeng Xiaoxian's laughter stopped abruptly, and his expression instantly became somewhat awkward.
He quickly scratched his head, his eyes darting around, and made up an excuse:
"Um... I suddenly remembered I have something to do. I'll go help you with the check-in process. I'll be right back."
After saying that, he turned and ran away. His slightly disheveled figure made Lin Yao and Lin Wanyu exchange a smile.
Watching Zeng Xiaoxian's hurried departure, Lin Yao's lips curled into a faint smile.
It turns out that the feeling of being there is so wonderful, reminding him of the happy times he had in his childhood because of the plot and characters of this drama.
No wonder some Lin Yaos who transmigrated to familiar and beloved worlds immediately shed their lazy and aimless state and developed a fighting spirit.
Lin Wanyu, standing beside her, also smiled slightly, a sudden warmth welling up in her heart.
The atmosphere here is wonderful. There are no constraints from home, no annoying blind dates, and many interesting things to do.
Making the decision to come to Shanghai from abroad and then to Love Apartment was definitely the right one.
especially……
There are still trustworthy people around me.
Lin Wanyu secretly raised her head and looked at the profile of the boy beside her.
The afternoon sun gently shone on his face, highlighting his handsome profile.
As she gazed at the scene, her eyes gradually became misty, her smile grew gentler, and a faint blush crept onto her cheeks.
