Holding the room key with the Love Apartment logo, Lin Yao ran his fingertips along the texture of the card and glanced at Lin Wanyu beside him.

Lin Wanyu wore a beige knitted long dress, the hem of which swayed gently with her steps, making her slender legs appear even whiter.

A few strands of hair were lifted by the breeze and clung to the tips of her reddened ears.

At this moment, Lin Wanyu was curiously looking around at her surroundings. Seeing all the new scenes, her steps became lighter.

"Lin Yao, do you think our neighbors in the apartment will find out if we pretend to be a couple?"

Lin Wanyu turned around, put her hands behind her back, her tone full of excitement, and her eyes sparkled with an unprecedented light.

This was her first time trying such an adventurous game, and her heart was pounding with an indescribable thrill.

Lin Yao smiled as he looked at her.

Looking at Lin Wanyu in front of him, even though she wasn't exactly a stunning beauty, Lin Yao always managed to cheer himself up, making her even more unforgettable.

Thinking this, Lin Yao raised his hand to smooth his slightly messy hair and said with a smile:

"Then you'd better keep up the act. This is Lin's big adventure game, so don't let him see through you so soon."

Feeling Lin Yao's intimate yet natural actions, Lin Wanyu's face remained expressionless, but her heart was beating even faster, yet she showed no resistance:

"Don't worry, in order for this game to continue for as long as possible, I will definitely not be seen through."

Actually, there was something else Lin Wanyu didn't say.

Although Lin Yao hadn't known her for very long, he had always given her a comfortable feeling and supported her.

Otherwise, Lin Wanyu wouldn't have gotten so close to a man she had only recently met.

At the same time, Lin Wanyu could also sense that Lin Yao did not dislike her, and that he acted so naturally.

However, Lin Wanyu didn't want to take things any further; she wanted to have a relationship in a step-by-step manner, which was the most beautiful idea in a young girl's heart.

As for Lin Yao, he possesses absolute strength. If he really wanted to, he could satisfy all his desires in this world of the Sole Poison Technique.

But Lin Yao felt that would be too tiring. After getting tired of it, one would become numb, and it was not as good as the pure smile of the girl in front of him.

Lin Yao didn't want to become a bulldozer.

To him, Lin Wanyu may not be the most beautiful woman in the world, but she is the one who can stir his heart the most.

Having acquired absolute power, those so-called carnal pleasures had long since become fleeting and tasteless to him.

The pleasure of lust is not as great as the pleasure of increasing one's strength.

What Lin Yao truly seeks is spiritual resonance and a deep-seated bond between souls.

"Yes, I'm really looking forward to it."

Lin Yao said in a low voice.

Seeing that Lin Yao still looked so familiar, Lin Wanyu's smile grew even brighter. Filled with the novelty of pretending to be a couple, she pulled him towards the apartment building.

"Hurry up, let's go see what room 3602 looks like."

Watching Lin Wanyu's joyful figure disappear into the distance, Lin Yao's smile deepened, and at the same time, he unconsciously recalled what had happened earlier.

In fact, from the moment Lin Yao learned about the Love Apartment, he was determined to join in the fun and began making preparations.

Make some money.

Of course, Lin Yao was doing something futile.

Shanghai is indeed more expensive than Guangzhou.

However, Lin Yao did not want to waste his energy on some gold and silver.

After all, making money was something that couldn't be simpler for him.

Therefore, before coming to Shanghai, Lin Yao made a special trip abroad to find those capitalists who mingled with the workers.

Using his Mangekyou Sharingan, he controlled key figures and easily infiltrated the core databases of those companies.

Then they would collect interest on the silver earned since the time of Empress Dowager Cixi.

Afterwards, Lin Yao had people transfer funds through offshore accounts in the Cayman Islands, setting up countless nest-like shell accounts.

After a series of operations, Lin Yao's hundred accounts gained a full thousand small goals.

The entire process was smooth and unimpeded.

This massive flow of funds is enough to drive any company crazy and to create a huge upheaval in the international financial market.

Countless companies suffered a sharp drop in market value and a halving of stock price due to the sudden withdrawal of these funds, and some even faced the potential for irreversible disaster.

It's just waiting for the right opportunity to explode.

But Lin Yao didn't care at all.

Being happy is the most important thing.

As for the rest, it doesn't matter.

Moreover, with his current strength, he is already the only one who reigns supreme in this urban world.

Lin Yao fused the power of light from Ultraman Tiga, the earth authority from Groudon, the powerful body of the Ultimate Terror Beast, as well as the energy from the Dragon Ball world and the power of the rules from the Douluo Continent world.

These top-tier powers from different worlds, even if not fully transformed, had already tempered his physical body to an indestructible level, making his survival ability terrifyingly high.

Unless he directly confronts the epicenter of a nuclear blast, almost nothing in this world can truly harm him.

Even if he were unfortunately affected by the core temperature and shock wave of a nuclear bomb, he would at most be seriously injured and on the verge of death, and would never perish easily.

This is the source of our confidence in this urban world with its own Love Apartment storyline; it is our invincible capital.

Getting back to the point, Lin Yao, who was now flush with cash, took Lin Wanyu straight to the Love Apartment.

The couple's new home is in room 3602, a two-bedroom apartment with excellent natural light.

The moment Lin Wanyu opened the door, she was drawn to the cozy decor of the living room.

She put down her luggage, touching the cushions on the sofa for a while, then leaning on the balcony to gaze at the distant scenery, quite satisfied.

Looking at her like this, Lin Yao became even more certain of a saying that had been circulating in his previous life.

This apartment might really have been bought and renovated by Lin Wanyu's mother, as it perfectly matches her daughter's aesthetic taste.

Thinking this, Lin Yao said something to Lin Wanyu, turned around and went downstairs to stroll around the nearby snack street.

Instead of going to those upscale restaurants, he specifically chose those small shops that looked inconspicuous but were incredibly popular.

I ordered a pan-fried bun, a bowl of crab roe soup dumplings, and several servings of exquisite braised dishes.

These ingredients aren't exactly rare, but they're authentic Shanghai flavors with an irresistible aroma.

When I returned to room 3602 with a full load of food, Lin Wanyu was sitting cross-legged on the sofa, engrossed in reading a magazine.

Hearing the door open, she immediately looked up and saw the bag in Lin Yao's hand. Her eyes lit up instantly, like two sparkling stars.

"Wow, it smells so good! Did you go buy something delicious?"

"Hmm, let's try some of the local specialties."

Lin Yao placed the bag on the coffee table, arranged the cutlery one by one, inserted the straw into the milk tea, and handed it to her.

Lin Wanyu took the milk tea, took a sip, and the warm sweetness spread from the tip of her tongue to the bottom of her heart.

She picked up a pan-fried bun and carefully took a small bite.

The delicious broth exploded in her mouth, burning her slightly, but she couldn't help but squint her eyes and reveal a satisfied smile.

"It's delicious."

Lin Wanyu mumbled, her cheeks puffed out like a little squirrel eating.

Seeing her eating so happily, Lin Yao's mood brightened as well.

Leaning back on the sofa, Lin Yao watched her savor the food bite by bite, his gaze lingering on her smiling face for a long time.

Just as the two were enjoying their meal...

With a "bang," the door was pushed open from the outside, and a man in a plaid shirt poked his head in, carrying a pink hot water bottle.

"Hello. Remember me? I'm Zeng Xiaoxian, who lives in apartment 3601 next door. I'm a radio host. Welcome to Love Apartment."

Zeng Xiaoxian's voice carried a hint of deliberate enthusiasm, and his gaze swept between Lin Yao and Lin Wanyu.

Seeing the two sitting intimately and the matching mugs on the coffee table, a knowing glint flashed in his eyes, and a knowing smile appeared on his lips.

Lin Wanyu was startled by Zeng Xiaoxian's sudden intrusion, and almost dropped the soup dumplings in her hand. She quickly put down her chopsticks and smiled somewhat embarrassedly.

"Hello, let me reintroduce myself. My name is Lin Wanyu, and this is Lin Yao."

"Hello, hello."

Zeng Xiaoxian walked in with a smile and placed the hot water bottle on the coffee table.

"This was sent to me by my daughter Yifei. She said it's getting cold and she wanted to warm your hands."

By the way, we're having a get-together in apartment 3601 tonight to welcome our new neighbors, you guys absolutely have to come!

"A get-together?"

Lin Wanyu blinked, looked at Lin Yao, and saw him nod, so she smiled and replied.

"Okay, okay, we'll definitely go."

"That's great. See you at 7 PM."

Zeng Xiaoxian exchanged a few more pleasantries before shaking his head and leaving room 3602. Before leaving, he gave the two of them a meaningful look.

After Zeng Xiaoxian left, Lin Wanyu finally breathed a sigh of relief and patted her chest.

"I was so scared! He came in suddenly, I thought our identities were about to be exposed."

Lin Yao couldn't help but chuckle as he looked at her still-shaken expression:

"Don't worry, he's just here to deliver the invitation; he doesn't have any ulterior motives."

As night falls and the city lights come on, room 3601 of the Love Apartment is brightly lit and filled with laughter and cheerful conversation.

Lin Yao was led into the living room by Lin Wanyu's hand. Several people were already sitting inside.

Besides Zeng Xiaoxian, whom I met during the day, there was also a woman with neat short hair and wearing a red tracksuit.

The woman, with her hands on her hips and an air of dominance, was directing everyone to set out the tableware; it was Hu Yifei.

On the other side, sitting next to them was a bespectacled boy who looked refined but also had a somewhat dazed air about him—it was Lu Zhanbo, whom the two knew well.

There was also a stylishly dressed short-haired girl chatting and laughing with Lu Zhanbo; according to Lin Yao's memory, this should be Chen Meijia.

"Oh, you've come, our hearts."

When Hu Yifei saw the two, she immediately went to greet them. Seeing their intimate manner and her younger brother's dazed look, she still felt very regretful.

When will my younger brother be able to make my life so worry-free?

Finding a suitable partner early on will prevent me from worrying about whether my younger brother will remain single for the rest of his life.

"Please sit down, please sit down. We've been waiting for you for a long time."


The table was laden with a dazzling array of dishes, their aromas filling the air and making one's mouth water.

After several rounds of drinks and several dishes, the atmosphere gradually became lively.

Feeling her younger brother had little chance, Hu Yifei, abandoning her idea of ​​playing matchmaker for him, held her wine glass and looked at Lin Yao and Lin Wanyu, her eyes full of gossip.

"You two look extremely well-matched. How did you meet? Tell us how you met and how you got together."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's eyes fell on the two of them.

Lu Zhanbo even put down his chopsticks and looked at them with curiosity, looking exactly like a bystander watching the drama unfold.

Lin Wanyu's face flushed red instantly, and she almost dropped her chopsticks.

She and Lin Yao clearly met by chance in the southern suburbs of Shanghai; there was no romantic love story involved.

Now things are really messed up. This girl, Yifei, whom she just met, suddenly asked her a lot of questions, and she had no idea how to make it up.

Just then, Lin Wanyu subconsciously looked at Lin Yao, seeking help.

Seeing her embarrassed expression, Lin Yao immediately put down his wine glass, slowly stood up, gently put his arm around Lin Wanyu's shoulder, and shielded her behind him, his tone calm and composed:

"We were classmates at Berklee College of Music; we met during our freshman year."

As soon as he finished speaking, he took out two red graduation certificates from his pocket and a graduation photo.

In the photo, Lin Yao is wearing an academic gown, with handsome features. Standing next to him is Lin Wanyu, who is wearing the same academic gown.

Of course, the graduation photo was created using his abilities, but the graduation certificate was real.

With money, what school can't you graduate from?

Lin Wanyu stared wide-eyed at the graduation certificate bearing her own photo and Lin Yao's name, her face filled with astonishment.

What's going on? Even though I've been studying for so many years and haven't made many friends, focusing only on improving my own level, it shouldn't be that I don't even know my classmates.

But she knew very well that she didn't have a classmate named Lin Yao at all, so how did this photo suddenly appear? And how did she become an alumnus?

This……

Wow. Berklee College of Music.

Hu Yifei took the graduation certificate and photo, looked at them over and over again, and nodded.

"No wonder you all have such a good temperament, you're all top students studying music."

Others also gathered around to watch the spectacle, marveling at it.

Lin Yao looked at the astonished expressions of the crowd, a faint smile playing on his lips.

For him, creating a fake identity is a piece of cake. With money and power, what in this world can't he do?

At this moment, Lin Yao's gaze inadvertently swept over Lu Zhanbo beside him, and he saw that the other party was looking at him and Lin Wanyu with a gossipy expression.

He immediately put down his wine glass, looked at Hu Yifei, and said in a teasing tone:

"Sister Yifei, when it comes to things like meeting and falling in love, I think Zhanbo and Sister Moran's story is more interesting than ours, right?"

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone's eyes turned to Lu Zhanbo.

Lu Zhanbo's face instantly turned bright red, his wine glass wobbled in his hand, and he stammered:

"Mo Lan and I are just ordinary friends. I only agreed to date her on the way here to pretend we were a couple so she wouldn't have to worry about her family pressuring her to go on blind dates..."

"Just friends?"

Hu Yifei raised an eyebrow, put her hands on her hips, and her gaze toward Lu Zhanbo instantly turned sharp.

"Zhanbo, tell me the truth. When did you meet that Sister Mo Lan? When did you start a relationship with her? Why didn't you tell me?"

"I met a policewoman in the southern suburbs. Also, I really have no relationship with anyone else."

Lu Zhanbo's initial explanation was contradictory, making it unreliable.

Seeing Lu Zhanbo's flustered state, a burst of laughter erupted in the living room.

Lin Wanyu couldn't help but laugh, her previous embarrassment and tension instantly vanishing.
