75: Chapter 75 Ling Rui's "Secret"
Lin Yongbo watched the scrolling server-wide announcements with excitement, constantly recharging his own account as well; once Taowu calmed down, it would be his time to shine.
He hadn't played many games before, having spent most of his money on clubbing and chasing women.
This time, he was mainly here to accompany Xing Tianjie, but once he actually started playing, he realized the appeal of these pay-to-win mobile games.
The feeling of constantly growing stronger and reaping rewards was a very addictive experience.
In the gaming world, if you didn't like someone, you could just crush them, and if you wanted something, you could buy it with a bit of money; that sense of doing whatever you pleased while receiving flattery from others was quite addictive.
As he was recharging, he suddenly noticed the Ling Family's little princess, Ling Rui, sitting down right next to him!
Ling Rui had originally been surrounded by people chatting, but a sudden command from her Master made her delicate body tremble.
Sensing the intensity continuously increasing, she hurriedly made up an excuse to slip away, managing to find a secluded, empty corner.
It was only after sitting down that she realized a man was sitting in the shadows!
At this moment, the strength and frequency were already very high, and she dared not move or speak, otherwise, she would inevitably expose her little secret in front of everyone.
Thinking of the consequences, she felt a bit of fear in her heart.
If her little secret were exposed in a setting like this, she would never have the face to show herself in public again!
But immediately after, a strange feeling rose in her heart, as if she were somewhat looking forward to that devastating outcome, giving rise to an impulse to "just try it."
This feeling lasted for a short while before fading away.
Because her Master had not given permission, she had no right to make decisions on her own.
However, the man next to her was such an eyesore!
She could have enjoyed the Master's remote soothing in this empty corner, but now she had to endure it bitterly!
Lin Yongbo wondered if his opportunity had arrived.
This Ling Family little princess treated everyone with a haughty attitude, and no young person from any family had truly entered her heart.
Everyone tried every possible way to please her and cater to her, but the results were never very good.
'Could it be that she's interested in the game I'm playing?'
Lin Yongbo speculated on various possibilities uncertainly; while slightly tilting his phone screen so she could see it clearly, he quietly scooted closer, inch by inch.
Seeing that man making small movements to get closer, Ling Rui's heart tightened.
Although it was a so-called silent model, the Master had currently set it to maximum power, so if anyone got too close, it was inevitable that they might hear some sounds.
However, all her strength was currently being used to resist those waves of impact, and she had to use every ounce of effort to keep her demeanor from appearing abnormal.
Warning the other person was even less possible; if she opened her mouth now, the most likely outcome would be a series of moans.
'She isn't refusing, and she's staring intently in my direction. Could it be that I've found the right approach?'
Receiving this "presumed" encouragement from the other party, Lin Yongbo scooted over even more eagerly, and soon he was very close.
"Huh, what's that sound? Is it a mosquito or a fly? There shouldn't be things like that in a place like this."
Lin Yongbo frowned slightly, but immediately stopped letting it distract him; he had more important things to do now.
"Ruirui, do you like playing games too? This is what I've recently..."
Lin Yongbo chattered on; although he didn't get any response, it was still good news, as Ling Rui would usually turn and walk away from things she wasn't interested in.
Since she was still sitting there obediently, it proved that she was indeed interested in what he was talking about.
If he put in a little more effort, he might become the first among the younger generation of the various families to enter the Ling Family little princess's heart!
Ling Rui's whole body felt somewhat drained, but she had finally made it through.
It seemed the Master was still considerate of her, as he hadn't set a time limit she couldn't handle.
After listening to this man chatter on for a long time, she was about to get angry when she suddenly saw a familiar game on his phone screen.
'Isn't this the game the Master usually assigns me tasks in? I'll probably wake up very late tomorrow, and it would be bad if I delayed the Master's affairs, so I should finish the task first.'
The Master's tasks were far more important than her unpleasant feelings, so she stopped herself from reprimanding Lin Yongbo and instead prioritized completing the task.
Sixty 648-yuan recharges every day; at the beginning, it was quite satisfying, but as the days went by, only the boredom of mechanical repetition remained.
This was when the benefits of having an obedient little sub became apparent.
Zhao Xiaoshuai assigned Ling Rui daily tasks and also set up a payment authorization for her, letting her help him recharge his account every day, while instructing her that she must use this payment method when recharging.
The system was bound to the game account, and the cashback confirmation information would be retained for 24 hours, so he only needed to process it all at one time.
This way, he liberated his hands while also being able to assign enough tasks to his little sub every day; it was a win-win.
Lin Yongbo had been observing the Ling Family little princess's expression out of the corner of his eye.
When he saw her frown, his heart skipped a beat, thinking he had guessed wrong.
If he caused her to feel repulsion, his previous advantage as a childhood friend would be completely lost.
But immediately after, he discovered that the Ling Family little princess had taken out her own phone and tapped on a game icon he was all too familiar with.
'I bet right!'
'Not only does Ling Rui like playing games, but she also happens to be playing the exact same one as me!'
'This game is just a small pay-to-win mobile game; logically, the probability of coincidentally playing the same one is almost zero. It seems fate is helping me!'
But Lin Yongbo was clearly happy too soon, because there was something even more exciting to come.
'What! She's actually on the same server as me? This kind of fate is simply heaven helping me! Let's see what her name is.'
Lin Yongbo stretched his neck, and when he saw the words "Only Recharging a Billion Points a Day," his mind exploded.
'It's actually her!'
'That's right, she certainly has the financial power for this. It makes sense that she doesn't like to talk much, and her tendency to retaliate ruthlessly at the slightest disagreement fits her personality perfectly.'
Everything made sense now.
Lin Yongbo's heart pounded; he had only started playing recently and had bought an account and just changed the name, so she probably didn't recognize him, and he hadn't realized they were on the same server until now.
He was extremely excited about this "little secret" he had discovered.
As long as he played his cards right, he could use this proximity to win the Ling Family little princess's heart without a doubt!
By then, not only would his father look at him with newfound respect, but he might even be able to covet the position his older brother had firmly secured in the company.
Even the future successor of the company might not necessarily be his capable older brother.
'Who would have thought a tiny game could yield such a harvest!'
He watched the Ling Family little princess meticulously tapping on the 518-yuan recharge option one by one; that serious expression was something he had never seen before.
When Ling Rui quieted down, her beauty and temperament were fully revealed, causing even Lin Yongbo, a playboy who often spent his time surrounded by beauties, to feel a bit moved.
Because Ling Rui had experienced everything, she didn't have much interest in anything, and their generation had racked their brains trying all kinds of entertainment, but with little success.
But today, he, Lin Yongbo, had finally found this deeply hidden secret!
He could already see the scene of himself winning the beauty and reaching the pinnacle of life in the future.
'The Ling Family's little princess, I will definitely win her over.'
