“…”

Lin Baici looked at the message, unsure how to respond.

Aside from studying, he spent his days reading novels, playing basketball, and gaming; he didn’t chat with girls much, so he had no experience dealing with a girl like Kim Myungjin.

And that selfie from the Goryeo girl, she was wearing too little,

is this something I can see for free?

Princess of Montecristo: I feel like I’ve gotten thinner these past two days, what do you think?

“Is she asking me to comment on her figure?”

Lin Baici pondered, “At times like this, I should probably give a compliment, right?”

Princess of Montecristo: I went to the embassy these couple of days and visited several uncles and aunts, finally got my passport and ID sorted out.

It was so tiring.

Princess of Montecristo: That Merit Buddha is really annoying, next time I see it, I’ll bash its head in and steal its Merit Box.

Lin Xia Dai Yue Gui: I’ll help you!

Kim Myungjin sighed at such a simple message.

Oppa, you really can’t chat!

No wonder you’re still single despite having such a handsome face!

However, the Goryeo girl soon cheered up again, thinking it meant Oppa didn’t have much interaction with women and was still a naïve young man.

“I’ll be the big sister who helps you gain some Experience Value then!”

Kim Myungjin raised her phone, found the right angle, click, and took a selfie.

Hmm!

Nice!

Two-thirds of the photo were her tight, plump tank top.

I wonder, is this too stimulating?

Kim Myungjin clicked send.

“…”

Lin Baici wanted to cry, please don’t test the bottom line of my integrity, okay?

I’m really going to save it!

Princess of Montecristo: Oppa, what’s fun and tasty in Guangqing City?

When a girl asks like this, she definitely wants the guy to accompany her.

Luckily, Lin Baici’s EQ wasn’t that low, and since they had been through life and death together in God’s ruins, he considered Kim Myungjin a friend.

As a local, he should fulfill his duty as a host and show the Goryeo girl around properly.

In reality, a third-tier small city had no attraction for a chaebol daughter like Kim Myungjin who had played around the world.

Kim Myungjin was purely staying to build a good relationship with Lin Baici and to recruit him back to her country.

Over the next five days, Lin Baici accompanied her the entire time.

Kim Myungjin held great respect for Lin Baici, her savior, and coupled with her high EQ, taking the initiative to care for him was indeed refreshing.

…

In the rotating Ferris wheel at the amusement park.

“Oppa, how about it, have you fallen for me?”

Kim Myungjin sat opposite Lin Baici, holding an ice cream in both hands, taking small bites, while staring at him.

“Even if I did, it’s useless, you’ll be going back to your country.”

Lin Baici gave a slight smile.

He had a lot of fun these days.

“You could come back with me!”

Kim Myungjin’s invitation seemed casual, but her heart was already in her throat.

Lin Baici shook his head.

Goryeo?

What would I do in that country?

Eat kimchi every day?

And the language barrier too.

Wait a second!

I have Guo Er Cheng Song, so language is no longer an issue, I should be fluent in half a year, sounding like a local.

Kim Myungjin felt somewhat dejected; Lin Baici really didn’t fancy her country.

She didn’t bring up the invitation to recruit him as a God Hunter in her country again.

Even though her brother had promised to give him a lieutenant military rank, Lin Baici might think he was being deceived?

After all, he didn’t know how influential her brother really was.

The Ferris wheel made a rotation and stopped.

Lin Baici alighted and stretched lazily.

“Oppa!”

Kim Myungjin watched the sunset, “If there’s a job with an annual salary of a million yuan, would you do it?”

“Ying Zhen, where do you think I’m worth a million yuan?”

Lin Baici could tell from the way the Goryeo girl had been spending money these days that she was more than just ordinarily wealthy.

He didn’t know Kim Myungjin’s brother wanted to recruit him; he thought the Goryeo girl mentioned this salary as a reasonable way to give him money to thank him.

“Looks, courage, physique, potential…”

Kim Myungjin counted on her fingers as if listing treasures.

Lin Baici had never been praised by a girl like this, which made him somewhat embarrassed: “Alright, stop thinking about repaying me, we’re friends, no need to be so formal!”

…

Lin Baici dropped Kim Myungjin off at the hotel and took the bus home.

The Goryeo girl wanted to treat him to dinner, but Lin Baici declined.

He couldn’t accept a girl paying, but it was beyond his means to pay himself.

During these days of hanging out, he had bought tickets and snacks and had treated Kim Myungjin to meals.

He had spent 760 yuan from his usual pocket money savings.

“Turns out, chasing a girl really does cost a lot of money!”

Lin Baici felt that if it weren’t for the fact that he had saved Kim Myungjin, there was no way the two of them could have ended up hanging out. freewebnσvel.cѳm

The difference in their family’s financial situations was just too great.

The face masks Kim Myungjin used every day cost more than what Lin Baici had for his monthly living expenses.

“I really need to start making money quickly!”

Lin Baici finished dinner, washed the dishes, and then returned to his bedroom.

He turned on his computer, logged into B站, and checked his stats.

The first cover video, “The Brightest Star in the Night Sky,” had surpassed ten thousand views, with five hundred bullet comments and over a hundred messages.

The second, “Ideal Three Decades,” had slightly worse stats, with only a dozen or so comments.

Lin Baici read through them one by one.

“Folk songs can have this kind of flavor?

So weird.”

“The voice is distinctive, keep it up!”

“My love is dead.

Listening to the UP’s song, I felt no emotion, didn’t want to chase that girl back, just felt like becoming a monk, Amitabha!”

Most comments were about the UP’s voice being distinctive, but the song choice was considered average.

Hua Yue Yu: Folk songs are niche and have an edge, making them easy to attract fans, but you need to develop a personal style.

Keep it up!

Hua Yue Yu: It seems like you have great lung capacity.

Why not try hitting a dolphin note?

Hua Yue Yu: Why haven’t you posted any new covers?

Persistence brings rewards.

Although you didn’t start off well, I believe there will be a beautiful outcome.

There weren’t many messages, but Hua Yue Yu left quite a few, and Lin Baici noticed them all at a glance.

This was his first follower.

Lin Baici clicked on her profile to take a look.

She was a girl with very little information provided.

Hua Yue Yu: Have you given up?

Disappointing!

This message had been posted that afternoon.

These past few days, Lin Baici was busy accompanying Kim Myungjin, and the lackluster response to his cover videos had also dampened his enthusiasm.

“Thank you!”

“I won’t give up!”

Lin Baici lay in bed, rethinking his path.

Continuing to sing this way definitely wouldn’t work; should he try making funny videos instead?

He had no talent for that!

Lin Baici reviewed the bullet comments and messages over and over.

There were users criticizing his singing, but they were few.

The majority of comments focused on his voice being distinctive, the atmosphere being strange, and the song choices being off.

“Folk music doesn’t work, and I’m not fond of rock, so what should I sing?”

Lin Baici grabbed his hair with both hands,

So annoying!

Maybe he should just recite sutras!

Eh?

Lin Baici suddenly sat up.

Mantra Buddha Resound was originally related to Buddhism, so maybe reciting sutras would complement it?

Let’s try it!

After all, failing would just waste a bit of time!

Lin Baici opened his computer, searched for sutra songs, and found very few.

He then looked up some sutras, ultimately selecting the “Heart Sutra.”

The text discusses the five aggregates, the three realms, the four noble truths, and the twelve links of dependent origination, expressing the Buddhist principle that everything is inherently empty.

It posits that prajna, or great wisdom, can overcome all suffering, achieve ultimate nirvana, and attain enlightenment.

Translated by Master Xuanzang during the Tang Dynasty, Lin Baici decided to sing the sutra in Sanskrit since he had the ability of Guo Er Cheng Song and could learn it after hearing it once.

It’s not difficult!

Besides, Sanskrit has an air of sophistication!

Lin Baici found a Sanskrit version of the “Heart Sutra,” listened to it twice, learned it, then found some pure instrumental music that sounded ethereal, lively, and rich in natural ambiance for the background.

He activated Mantra Buddha Resound and started recording.

Since it was past nine in the evening, Lin Baici dared not be too loud.

Also feeling that this sutra-recitation video might not catch on, he didn’t take it too seriously.

Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva,

When practicing deeply the Prajna Paramita,

Perceives that all five aggregates are empty,

And is saved from all suffering and distress.

…

After Lin Baici finished recording, he listened to it and felt it was not bad.

He imported the audio into his computer, accompanied it with two images of Buddha statues, edited it briefly,

and uploaded it.

As he clicked to post, Lin Baici had a bit of mischief in mind; using Muscle Buddha’s picture as a background might make the video more amusing.

Knock knock!

Mother Lin knocked on the door and entered, “Baici, go to bed early.

I’m off tomorrow, so I’ll take you to buy some clothes.

Make a list of anything else you need.”

There were less than ten days left before university orientation.

“There’s no need to buy clothes; I can still wear the ones I have!”

Lin Baici knew the family wasn’t wealthy and didn’t want to waste money.

“You’re going to university, meeting new friends in a new environment; you should have some nice clothes!”

Mother Lin didn’t let Lin Baici argue, as she didn’t want her son to feel inferior at university.

…

The following days were busy for Lin Baici.

In addition to buying clothes and preparing luggage, classmates he was on good terms with called him out to hang out one last time.

Playing games, hiking, reading comics…

And eating popsicles while strolling down the streets.

In these last days, Lin Baici even received several WeChat messages from female classmates, asking him to go to the movies.

This surprised Lin Baici as he was not the center of social circles at school, nor did he interact much with girls.

“It seems I’m quite popular after all.”

Lin Baici didn’t realize that if he’d been more daring, taken the initiative, he might have started several relationships and had his first kiss during the high school graduation holiday.

After all, Lin Baici was tall and big, with fair skin, and he was extremely good-looking.

Hua Yue Yu and Jin Ying also regularly messaged Lin Baici, keeping in touch; especially the Goryeo girl, who always started conversations with selfies and ‘Can I watch this without paying?’

Lin Baici was busy and, besides the occasional glance at the ‘Heart Sutra’ chanting video, had little time to pay much attention to it.

After all, the views were growing slowly, especially in the days close to the university orientation, when he had stopped logging into his account altogether.

So he didn’t know that, after a week of fermentation, the video’s reputation had improved significantly, with a frighteningly high replay and save ratio.
