Courtyard House: My System - Artificial Human

Their absurd behavior continued even after Hao Pingchuan returned.

But Bai Ling suddenly heard the voices of familiar people outside the courtyard.

He got so excited that he almost bit the towel in half.

She was unaware that Lin Weidong had the ability to remotely command Jin Lu, and after the absurdity, she panicked.

It's not that they're afraid of being caught in adultery; if both the man and woman are unmarried, marriage can solve the problem.

However, Hao Pingchuan was, after all, an acquaintance and colleague of hers. If he knew that she had slept with Lin Weidong after only one day of knowing him, I wonder what he would think and how he would view her and Lin Weidong.

Outsiders cannot understand the feelings between them, but it is precisely because they do not understand that they may spread rumors and gossip.

Bai Ling recovered and quickly reached for the clothes beside her.

Lin Weidong, being mischievous, nudged her, interrupting her actions.

What are you doing?

Bai Ling turned around, her eyes filled with fear, and pinched Lin Weidong's arm hard with her fingertips.

She could hardly believe that Lin Weidong would do something so wicked at such a crucial moment.

"What's wrong, Sister Bai Ling? What are you afraid of?"

"You're going to die..."

Before Bai Ling could finish her accusations, Hao Pingchuan pushed the door open, but before it was fully open, a questioning voice suddenly rang out from the doorway.

"Huh? Weidong? You're asleep? Weidong?"

Lin Weidong pretended to be asleep and didn't say anything, just driving in his dream.

Bai Ling couldn't even last ten seconds and almost bit the towel off her mouth.

Lin Weidong finally got his revenge, giving her a good rub and then moving her aside.

Only then did he feign a confused tone in response.

"You're back, Officer Hao? Wait a minute, I took a nap. Practicing marksmanship all day has exhausted me!"

"No need, no need, you should rest. If there's nothing else, I can just let Bai Ling know."

No sooner had Hao Pingchuan finished speaking than Bai Ling became agitated and pinched Lin Weidong hard twice.

"Quickly, hold him off! I need to get dressed and go back to my room!"

Lin Weidong then called out to the outside.

"It's okay, I'm out now. I haven't eaten yet and I'm starving."

Lin Weidong opened the bedroom door wearing only a pair of shorts.

He has a clean constitution and won't pick up other smells, but his clothes are a different story.

He closed the bedroom door, picked up his coat from the chair, put it on, wrapped it around himself, and then opened the door.

In the bedroom, Bai Ling carefully put on her clothes. In the dark, she didn't know whether she was wearing hers or Lin Weidong's, but she just put them on anyway.

But before she could even get dressed, Lin Weidong came back, which infuriated Bai Ling.

"Why...where's Hao Pingchuan? Did he go looking for me?"

"It's alright, I've arranged everything, listen!" Lin Weidong stopped teasing her, put his arm around Bai Ling and carried her to the window to listen to the sounds in the courtyard.

Outside the courtyard, the moonlight was bright, much brighter than inside the house.

Just as Hao Pingchuan and Jin Lu reached the door of the side room, Jin Lu's wife came out from inside.

"Keep your voices down, you two. Comrade Bai Ling just fell asleep."

"Huh? Why are you sleeping so early?" Jin Lu chimed in before Hao Pingchuan could even speak.

"It's nothing. We just watched a commotion in the backyard this afternoon. Comrade Bai Ling caught a bit of a chill, so I made her some ginger soup. She just needs to sweat it out under the covers."

"Are you alright? Let me see. Should we take you to the hospital?"

"Jin Liuzi, do you want to die? What are you looking at while that woman is sleeping? Hey! I've noticed you're itching for a beating after just one day without me dealing with you, aren't you?"

Hao Pingchuan swallowed the words he was about to say and quickly tried to break up the fight.

"No, no, no! Don't fight!"

The area outside the courtyard was in complete chaos. Hao Pingchuan had to exert a great deal of effort to rescue Jin Lu from the tigress's clutches, and they hid in another room, barely daring to breathe.

Behind the curtains, Bai Ling's tense nerves relaxed, and she let out a long breath. It was so exciting; she had never been this nervous even when catching enemy agents.

But in an instant, Bai Ling felt something was wrong with her body and her brows furrowed.

Looking back, she realized that Lin Weidong had somehow stripped her clothes off!

"You!" Bai Ling didn't know what to say. She was about to be driven crazy by this nemesis!

"What's wrong?"

"Wait! Hold on, give me the towel!"

……

With the sun high in the sky, Lin Weidong finally had his fill and carried the completely limp Bai Ling to the kang (a heated brick bed) to rest.

He went to the kitchen again and pretended to cook, then returned with a plate of delicious food.

After taking the nourishing food, Bai Ling refused to sleep at Lin Weidong's place, knowing that Hao Pingchuan would definitely come looking for her the next morning, and she had to go back to her own room.

Another thing is that she was a little afraid of Lin Weidong.

Based on her understanding of matters between men and women, Lin Weidong was simply inhuman! Not to mention Lin Weidong, she herself was terrifyingly strong.

How can a newly deflowered child go through such repeated ordeals?

She had a vague suspicion that the pill Lin Weidong gave her was not just for replenishing qi and blood.

How foolish! Such good food was just given to me so casually, Bai Ling thought to herself, her heart filled with tenderness and sweetness.

Then she thought that Lin Weidong was younger than her, so it was normal for him to be immature. She would take better care of him in the future.

"Get some sleep, you have to go to work tomorrow. I'll play with you again tomorrow night!"

Before leaving, Bai Ling tucked the blanket around Lin Weidong and couldn't help but peck him once before taking the dishes from the plate and leaving.

Are you trying to coax him like a child?

Watching Bai Ling leave with the "pity" positive sentiment tag on her face, Lin Weidong twitched the corner of his mouth with a helpless expression. Why does it feel like the roles of offense and defense have been reversed?

He lay in bed, a pleasant drowsiness washing over him as he savored the moment, and his eyelids drooped.

……

The next morning, Lin Weidong finally had the mind to take stock of the system's gains.

Last night, after winning over Bai Ling, the system only gave me one Beauty Pill.

Lin Weidong was not disappointed by this; on the contrary, he breathed a sigh of relief.

The rewards he received from conquering Tian Zao were so generous that he felt a sense of urgency and wanted to farm more rewards.

But he's a picky person; once he has the means, he just wants to eat well.

In this era, makeup and styling are not prominent, and simplicity is valued. Beauty in this context is purely subjective and subjective.

To be honest, among the young wives in the courtyard, only Qin Huairu was presentable. The others were not as beautiful or elegant as his school beauties from his previous life.

Now that's perfect, since the system's focus isn't on the female leads or supporting characters in the story, he doesn't have to rack his brains all day trying to win over people he doesn't like.

Compared to last night's event, the sign-in rewards were a huge bonus.

They gave me a women's supplies box, which contained not only revolutionary items like sanitary napkins, but also a number of colorful little clothes.

Supply boxes are more valuable than one-time reward supplies and can be refreshed monthly.

This is exactly what Lin Weidong wants. As for ordinary supplies, he has already accumulated a lot in his space and is too lazy to take stock of them.

Aside from a small number of time-honored resources that cannot be sold, there are also food supplies such as rice and flour that will become even more precious in the future.

As for the others, Lin Weidong had already instructed several of his copyists who were traveling to do small business, exchanging them for more valuable items that were less likely to depreciate.

While clearing out inventory, it also allows traveling merchants to accumulate some capital, which will be even more advantageous after a few years of public-private partnership.

When reform and opening up come in the future, riding the wave of progress, things will only get better and better.

The most difficult period for both sides has passed, and there is no need for him to add unnecessary complications.

His abilities and skills, placed in the grand scheme of history, are nothing more than a grain of sand in the grand scheme of things.

What he wanted to do first was to take care of himself, and then contribute to the cause without affecting himself.

If we can add a trace of our presence to the grand blueprint of this era, then our journey will not have been in vain.

Just as he was feeling sentimental, Lin Weidong heard a commotion outside.
