Spend Money on Goddess, Use more! Gain more!

"Okay, we know."

Wu Wei nodded his head, and looking up towards the shore, it was crowded with people, each holding up their cell phones, waiting for the moment the Transcendence Pavilion would light up.

"There are so many people, I want to take a video too!"

Sun Yi hurriedly wiped her hands, picked up the phone on the table, turned on the video function, and moved to the window. She aimed her phone at the Transcendence Pavilion outside: "Wow, the Transcendence Pavilion looks so different from this angle!"

"Let me see."

Wu Wei stood up and walked to Sun Yi\'s side, standing close to her as they both looked out through the same window.

By that time, the sun had already set, and the surroundings of Daming Lake were gradually enveloped by night.

But the silhouette of Transcendence Pavilion remained clearly visible.

A moment later, a huge counting down sound came from the shore:

"Five, four, three, two, one!"

As the countdown ended, the lights of Transcendence Pavilion came on.

The majestic ancient building, under the glow of golden lights, was stunningly beautiful.

At the same time, all the surrounding buildings, the light strips by the lake, and the trees on the shore, all lit up together.

The view over Daming Lake was breathtaking.

A wave of romance instantly spread between the two.

"It\'s so beautiful!"

Sun Yi couldn\'t help but exclaim.

Wu Wei turned his gaze away from the scene and looked at Sun Yi\'s perfect profile.

Breezes wafted in through the window, causing a few strands of her hair to gently flutter, an image of pure charm.

Wu Wei found it hard to take his eyes off of her.

At this moment, after Sun Yi finished recording the video, she also turned her head to look at him.

Their gazes inadvertently met in such close proximity.

Her ears turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Let\'s continue with our meal."

Sun Yi quickly turned around and sat back at her seat.

Wu Wei smiled and returned to his own seat as well.

The pleasure boat started moving again.

The two continued eating, neither speaking for a while.

The atmosphere inside the boat was somewhat awkward, yet seemingly laced with ambiguity.

A moment later, Sun Yi looked up at Wu Wei and asked casually, "Why did you come here all by yourself this time, isn\'t your girlfriend with you?"

Girlfriend?

At the mention of these three words by Sun Yi, Wu Wei\'s heart jumped with joy: This was a blatant probe!

He almost blurted out: I don\'t have a girlfriend.

But as the words reached his lips, he suddenly stopped.

That answer was too honest and straightforward; it wouldn\'t stir a woman\'s emotions.

And without emotional waves, it\'s difficult for a woman to feel anything for you.

This is why honest men are less popular.

After pondering for a while, Wu Wei asked with a smile, "Why, are you concerned if I have a girlfriend?"

Sun Yi hadn\'t expected Wu Wei to respond that way and was a bit flustered, quickly denying, "No, I was just asking casually."

"Oh."

Wu Wei noted her expression and said, "If you\'re just asking casually, then I won\'t answer."

Sun Yi pursed her lips: "What if I asked you seriously?"

"You really want to know the answer that badly?"

Wu Wei looked at Sun Yi with a teasing smile, "Is whether I have a girlfriend that important to you?"

"No!"

Sun Yi\'s cheeks reddened instantly, and she feigned anger to cover her embarrassment: "Hmph, never mind then!"

"Well, now I insist on telling you."

Wu Wei leaned forward slightly and seriously said to Sun Yi, "I don\'t have a girlfriend, and I\'ve never had one before."

[Sun Yi\'s affection points +2]

As soon as the words left his mouth, the system prompt appeared.

Wu Wei immediately got the hint.

"You\'ve never been in a relationship?"

Hearing Wu Wei\'s reply, Sun Yi was a bit surprised, and at the same time, felt a secret delight, "I sort of don\'t believe it. Back in junior high and high school, there were quite a few girls who liked you. Couldn\'t have been none in university, right?"

"Indeed, there were, but..."

Wu Wei said, his gaze fixed intensely on Sun Yi\'s eyes, "Because I\'ve always had someone in my heart, I rejected them all."

An answer immediately popped into Sun Yi\'s mind, but she wasn\'t sure, and her heart started thumping with anticipation as she asked, "Who is it?"

Wu Wei smiled and played coy, "I won\'t tell you!"

"Tell me, come on!"

Sun Yi\'s tone was a bit coquettish as she barraged him with questions, "Is it a classmate? Or a coworker? Do I know her?"

"It\'s a classmate, and you know her," Wu Wei said, his gaze softening as he looked at Sun Yi, his words already implying much, as the atmosphere between them grew even more ambiguous.

"If I know her, then it must be a junior high classmate. We\'ve been desk mates for so long, how come I never noticed who you liked back then?"

Sun Yi\'s gaze was gentle, and she really wanted to hear the exact name from Wu Wei\'s lips.

Of course, Wu Wei wasn\'t going to say it.

After realizing he had been \'fished\' by Liu Lili, he had been frantically brushing up on relationship knowledge online these past few days, reflecting on his own performance in this relationship, and found he had made many foolish mistakes.

Now, once he got carried away, he couldn\'t help but spill it out.

That would be revealing his intentions and needs too early.

This was a big taboo when pursuing girls!

Moreover, he was quite enjoying the ambiguous atmosphere between the two of them right now.

"Because you\'re silly!"

Wu Wei joked, shifting the focus onto Sun Yi, and asked, "What about you? You came out to play with me today. Isn\'t your boyfriend going to be angry?"

Wu Wei knew through the system that she didn\'t have a boyfriend, but he asked anyway, curious to see how she would respond.

Moreover, he was quite curious about the reasons behind her perpetual single status.

"I\'m the same as you, I\'ve never been in one either," Sun Yi shook her head and puckered her lips in dissatisfaction, "See? How straightforward I am!"

"No way?"

Wu Wei feigned disbelief, "You\'re so beautiful. There must be a lot of guys chasing you. I won\'t mention the rest, but just today, so many guys were sneakily checking you out. If I wasn\'t by your side, they would definitely have come up to chat and ask for your WeChat."

"That\'s an exaggeration," Sun Yi said, her cheeks flushed, as she seriously told Wu Wei, "Indeed, a lot of guys have chased after me, but I never really got to know them or felt it was right."

"When others hear I\'ve never been in a relationship, they find it unbelievable and think I\'m too picky," she added.

Wu Wei chuckled, "Isn\'t that the case?"

"Maybe," Sun Yi looked down, idly stirring the vegetables in her bowl, and continued, "I actually lack confidence and security, and I always think about growing into someone I\'m satisfied with before I meet someone and have a proper relationship. Others might find it too naive or idealistic, but it\'s what I\'ve always insisted on in my heart."

"So you\'ve stayed single until now?"

Had it been anyone else, Wu Wei wouldn\'t have believed it, but based on the system\'s data and his understanding of Sun Yi, what she said was undoubtedly true.

"Yeah, I\'ve turned 25 in a blink of an eye, still dreaming of love as if I was 18," Sun Yi smiled, "But after this terrible year, I\'ve realized that I\'m not as energetic or capable as I imagined."

"I used to avoid this topic, so I stayed single, and I didn\'t mind, thinking that someone else\'s boyfriend would take care of them, and I could take care of myself, no big deal. But deep down, I\'ve always been looking forward to someone who would truly move my heart and enter my life."

Hearing Sun Yi\'s words, Wu Wei felt very happy inside.

It turned out that Sun Yi\'s heart also longed for love, yearning for someone to care for her.

This was great news for him.

"You will find someone!" Wu Wei assured her, with a hint of innuendo in his eyes, implying, "And it might be very soon."

"I hope so," Sun Yi smiled shyly at Wu Wei.

The two exchanged a glance, an unspoken understanding between them.
