I downloaded the app and discovered that my childhood sweetheart's affection level had skyrocke

Such a quick change of expression! Seeing Lin Zhou enthusiastically holding his hand, Luo's father's lips twitched slightly. However, now that he had revealed his identity and seeing the other party's warm manner, he spoke up.

"You and Coco... seem to be very close?"

"Yes, we have a very good relationship," Lin Zhou said.

"How far has it gotten?"

"How far have we gotten?" Lin Zhou asked. "Well... not quite lovers yet, but I'll try my best."

After all, Coco's favorability rating is over 90, so it's really just a matter of breaking through that barrier... Once that barrier is broken, it's actually a relationship like lovers.

Mr. Luo looked Lin Zhou up and down, then said, "As for the young people... I can't say what Coco wants to do. Between you two... there shouldn't be any further development, right? Any breakthroughs or anything...?"

breakthrough?

Lin Zhou was taken aback for a moment, but if it came to going further, he could only explain, "Soon."

Soon?

Mr. Luo was silent for a few seconds—what does "quickly" mean?

If it exists, it exists; if it doesn't, it doesn't.

What does "soon" mean?!

ha?

"You probably don't understand my daughter's personality," Mr. Luo said.

"Although Coco usually seems cute, a bit absent-minded, and even naive, I also know that she is very thoughtful," Lin Zhou said immediately.

Luo's father asked, "Which Coco are you talking about?"

"Um... Luo Xiaoke."

"..." Mr. Luo didn't say much, he just patted Lin Zhou on the shoulder, "Alright, I should go too, I was just wandering around here anyway..."

"Oh, by the way, don't tell my daughter we've met before."

"Yeah?"

"Yes, no matter what... I... never mind, young man." The other person shook his head, then turned and left, leaving Lin Zhou with only his back view.

"See you next time."

"See you next time..." The other person's voice came from afar.

Lin Zhou withdrew his gaze, and after a few seconds, he realized something. "Speaking of which, is Coco's father satisfied or dissatisfied with me... I always feel like he seems a little absent-minded."

Forget it.

This could be considered their first meeting; in Lin Zhou's memory, he had never seen the other person before.

Does she really look that young?

She really knows how to take care of herself.

With plenty of time remaining, Lin Zhou didn't linger there in the breeze. He stretched, then glanced at his obediently sitting sister beside him. "Let's go, Zhiyu, shall I go for a walk with you?"

"Brother, I don't want to go shopping today."

"Yeah?"

"Um, brother, can you sit with me for a while?"

"Can……"

Lin Zhou sat down again, and his sister hugged one of his arms, sitting there quietly.

Perhaps because of the strong wind, when the clothes on his arm were blown around, he felt a strange sensation as if he were actually being hugged—Lin Zhou was momentarily dazed and subconsciously glanced to the side, "Ah..."

"What's wrong?" the younger sister blinked.

"fine."

"..." If only the wind would stop.

Lin Zhou and his sister stayed there for half an hour before he received a message from Ye Zhiyu.

[Ye Zhiyu: Is he still alive?]

[Ye Zhiyu: Time to go to work! The fortune-telling stall needs help!]

[Ye Zhiyu: oi~~~ (voice 3 seconds)]

"Hmm... why is this guy setting up a stall again?" Lin Zhou said, glancing in the direction of the stall, then shook his head helplessly and stood up. Oh well, I'll go check it out.

Lin Zhou eventually returned to Ye Zhiyu's side. Ye Zhiyu was sitting in front of the stall, propping her chin up with one hand, looking quite bored. She was fiddling with her phone, and when she caught sight of Lin Zhou out of the corner of her eye, she suddenly grinned mischievously and waved as if to say, "You've finally arrived."

"There aren't many customers, are there? Why did you call me over?" Lin Zhou glanced around and found that there were hardly any customers in front of Ye Zhiyu's stall.

"Isn't this the problem we're trying to solve... Anyway, let's take it off first."

Lin Zhou: "?"

Meow meow meow?

Dude, is your way of solving problems to make me take my clothes off first?

"Are you kidding me?" Lin Zhou said.

"That's right." Ye Zhiyu nodded.

Lin Zhou: "..."

Well... I don't know where to begin complaining.

However, Lin Zhou also seemed to notice something. He glanced at the distance and found that there was another fortune-telling stall about several dozen meters away from Ye Zhiyu's stall, which was far beyond Lin Zhou's expectations.

"Huh? These days, even fortune telling has competitors? Isn't this just piracy?"

Ye Zhiyu, however, propped her chin on one hand and said lazily, "Yeah, she's from the academy's divination club."

Lin Zhou: "Hiss."

Why does it feel like they're the legitimate ones? So there's a fortune-telling club in the academy?

"And their prices are even cheaper than ours, by ten or twenty yuan!" Ye Zhiyu continued lazily. "However, many people just want psychological comfort from divination."

Just as Lin Zhou and Ye Zhiyu were chatting, the fortune-telling stalls over there started shouting, "Fortune-telling, tarot card readings... cheap, very cheap! Yinshan Academy Mystic Department Fortune-telling Club, very reliable and trustworthy, only twenty yuan for a reading!"

"Let's go, let's go, a fortune-telling club, huh? It sounds like it'd be fun to try it out."

"Why don't you go find that short-haired girl? I've heard she's pretty accurate, haven't you?"

"Ugh...it's expensive, and they act all high and mighty. These days, prices are so competitive, who would still go?"

Many customers walked over there, including some regulars from Ye Zhiyu's stall who smiled at Ye Zhiyu and said, "Oh, let's give it a try."

Ye Zhiyu waved her hand casually, "Oh."

"Twenty..." Lin Zhou glanced at him upon hearing this, "Aren't you afraid our club will have no income? Or should we lower the price too?"

Ye Zhiyu said, "I'm afraid, but I'm even more afraid of the accounts not being clear."

"Establish the rules first, and the road ahead will become wider and wider."

Lin Zhou: "..."

"What do we do with these props if there are no guests?" Lin Zhou pointed to some opened divination props on the table.

Ye Zhiyu said, "Make it first, throw away what's expired. A person can't be without a conscience."

Lin Zhou: "..."

However, at this moment, a customer still walked up to Ye Zhiyu's stall, "Oh, Master Yu, could you give us a reading?"

Ye Zhiyu didn't even look up. "There's a fortune-telling shop over there. Why don't you go there? It's cheaper."

"Oh dear... those fortune-telling shops over there make me feel anxious and restless. Yours is much more accurate and comforting."

Ye Zhiyu hummed in agreement.

Lin Zhou: "..."

I feel like Yu has a mechanical vibe today. Oh well, let her make a fuss. Ye Zhiyu said you can't observe people casually because you never know what strange things are going on in their heads.

Lin Zhou sat down, and Ye Zhiyu casually placed one leg on his thigh. "Get to work."

"oh."
