Chapter 209 Which of you two will sit?
The pointer slowly decelerated, passing 10 million, passing 100 million, and finally stopped on a new option.
"A certain part of the body increases by 5 cm."
Lin Chen was stunned at first, then his eyes widened even more than before:
"Holy crap, holy crap, holy crap!!"
He couldn't believe his eyes, staring at the option on the wheel repeatedly for several times,
confirming it was indeed "A certain part of the body increases."
"Damn! My luck is through the roof!"
Lin Chen grinned from ear to ear, unable to suppress the excitement in his heart.
"This is a huge gain! Adding 10 cm to my Stud Waist, no one will ever look down on me again!"
The system prompt sounded on time:
[Congratulations to the Host for winning 'Increase a certain part of the body by 5 cm'. Please select the body part you wish to lengthen. Once selected, it will take effect immediately and cannot be changed.]
Lin Chen instantly stopped jumping, scratched his head, and began to ponder.
A certain part of the body...
There were so many places to choose from.
Legs? Lengthening by 5 cm would make him a good deal taller, going from 1.8 meters to 1.85 meters—
walking down the street would definitely turn heads. Arms?
Lengthening arms by 5 cm would make playing basketball or grabbing things easier. Or...
He mulled it over, and his gaze slowly turned suggestive, a wicked smile curling at the corners of his mouth.
Long legs and arms were good, but they weren't as practical as lengthening *that* part!
As a man, who wouldn't want to have more of an advantage in that area?
The effect... just thinking about it was exhilarating!
Without hesitation, Lin Chen said to the system in his mind, his face carrying a somewhat lewd and smug smile,
"System, choose that part, make it happen now!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a warm sensation spread from that part of his body.
There was only a comfortable feeling of slow stretching; the change was clearly perceptible.
The smile on his face grew more and more radiant.
"Awesome! This is too awesome!"
Lin Chen looked down, incredibly satisfied, and couldn't help but slap his thigh.
"This is better than 100 million! I'm definitely a winner in life from now on!"
After tossing and turning for a while, Lin Chen finally felt a bit sleepy. He lay down on the sofa,
quickly falling asleep with a smug smile still on his face, likely chuckling in his dreams.
The next morning, sunlight spilled through the window into the room, falling on Lin Chen's face, warm and cozy.
When he woke up, he looked at the stunning Chen Qian beside him.
The interaction between the two began again.
"Lin Chen..."
"Why does it feel different from last night?"
"Be gentler..."
...
Dawdling until eight o'clock, Lin Chen and Chen Qian finally finished cleaning up the mess in the room and headed out with somewhat lazy steps.
On the cabinet in the entrance hall sat an exquisitely packaged velvet box; it was a handbag Lin Chen had specifically picked out for Chen Qian during his business trip to Hong Kong a while ago.
Lin Chen casually picked up the box and tucked it into Chen Qian's arms, his tone carrying a hint of nonchalant doting:
"Take it, I bought it specifically for you."
Chen Qian's eyes lit up, and she couldn't wait to open the box. When that limited edition bag she had been talking about for so long—but could never get her hands on—was revealed, she couldn't help but let out a low cry:
"Wow! Isn't this the 'sold-out king'? It's way too beautiful!"
She had two bags of this caliber in her closet,
but this style was the latest, and it was a good deal more expensive than her previous two. It was clear Lin Chen had really put thought into it.
A sweet warmth rose from the bottom of her heart, her cheeks flushing slightly as she whispered, "Thank you..."
She stole a glance at Lin Chen, gave him a playful glare, and said with a hint of coquettishness:
"You can't be that rough anymore in the future, do you hear me?"
Lin Chen smiled and rubbed her hair, not arguing, only responding with "Got it, my young lady,"
earning another glare from Chen Qian, though the corners of her mouth couldn't help but turn upward.
Days flew by, and it was already Friday.
By the time he leisurely arrived at the classroom, it was already nine-thirty.
Just as he found a seat and sat down, Xia Wanqing leaned over excitedly,
nudging him with her elbow. Her voice was kept extremely low, but she couldn't hide the excitement in her eyes, her tone even trembling slightly:
"Lin Chen, look! It... it hit the limit-up again!"
Lin Chen glanced at the stock interface on her phone screen and nodded calmly,
his tone as casual as if he were saying the weather was nice today: "Keep an eye on it. If the limit breaks, get out immediately. Don't be greedy."
"You're just too amazing!" Stars almost appeared in Xia Wanqing's eyes as her fingers stroked the phone screen, her voice full of admiration.
"That's five consecutive limit-ups. By calculation, it's already risen by 60%!"
"My sister's account and mine have both reached over 80,000 now. It's almost doubled!"
In her excitement, her voice unintentionally got a bit louder. Lin Chen quickly made a shushing gesture, his brow furrowing slightly as he lowered his voice:
"Shh, shh, shh, keep it down! Are you trying to make sure everyone knows?"
Xia Wanqing immediately covered her mouth, stuck her tongue out sheepishly, and looked left and right.
After confirming no one was paying attention, she leaned close to Lin Chen's ear and whispered, "I know, I know. I was just too excited."
"I only told you two sisters; I haven't mentioned a word to anyone else."
Lin Chen leaned against the back of his chair, his tone flat but carrying a hint of consideration.
"The people in our class have complicated motives. If they found out I was helping you two make money but not them, they'd surely get jealous. It would cause a bunch of trouble, and the loss would outweigh the gain."
Xia Wanqing nodded repeatedly in agreement:
"Mm! I understand. I definitely won't tell anyone, and neither will my sister!"
Lin Chen smiled and patted her shoulder.
"That's right. By the way, remember to come over to my house for a party together after school this afternoon. Let's have some fun."
He paused, remembering something, and scratched his head:
"But my sports car only seats two. How are you two sisters going to manage?"
This was true. When Lin Chen's sports car was delivered to the academy entrance this morning, its cool exterior and flamboyant color
instantly drew everyone's attention. Many people stopped to watch and take photos.
Even the usually aloof Chu Feifei stopped and watched for a while, her eyes showing a hint of curiosity and envy.
As for Wang Lin, she even went to the front of the car, posing for several photos to show off on her moments.
Xia Wanrou happened to walk in from outside and, hearing this, immediately chimed in decisively:
"The two of us won't be separated. How about we take a taxi there? You'll probably need to head home early to buy things and prepare; you'll be very busy. You go on ahead!"
She paused and added:
"My sister and I will just take a taxi with Zhang Peng and the others. We won't hold you up."
Lin Chen nodded, not being overly polite.
He indeed needed to head back early to prepare.
"I'll show off my skills tonight, then find a reason to keep these two top-tier sisters here."
"Next is..."
"Hehe."
The more he thought about it, the more addicted he became.
