Gasp! She's a Time Traveler Using Modern Tech to Improve Ancient Life-Chapter 398 - 395: Frequent Trending Topic

During this period, Lin Wanwan lived a fulfilling life in the Great Tang and didn’t think about returning to the modern day.

Due to the time flow issue, there was again a few days’ time difference between the Great Tang and the modern day.

Now that it’s evening with nothing to do, Lin Wanwan planned to make a trip back to the modern day.

While it’s still morning here in the modern day, the renovation of the second and third-floor lofts was entering the final stages.

Lin Wanwan pushed open the guestroom door on the first floor, grabbed two bottles of Happy Soap Water from the fridge, and went upstairs to check on the progress.

Two workers from the renovation company were laying the floorboards. These solid wood floorboards were custom ordered by Lin Wanwan from a furniture factory rather than being crafted from wood brought over from the Great Tang.

Because crafting on-site would still require painting, which Lin Wanwan found too slow.

"Hey, you two! Busy, huh? Take a break and have a Coke!" Lin Wanwan offered them a Coke.

The workers, who were engrossed in their work, looked up and smiled, shaking their heads: "No need, I’ll finish up first."

Without standing on ceremony, Lin Wanwan placed the two bottles of Coke in a corner and began to inspect the new layout of the second floor, feeling quite satisfied.

The overall exterior appearance wasn’t allowed to be changed since this is a commercial housing complex, not a rural self-built house; the exterior needs to stay consistent with the neighbors.

Lin Wanwan naturally didn’t alter the exterior, just changed the internal layout of the second floor by removing the somewhat aging floorboards and doors, restoring the original villa layout.

The walls that were previously built to create extra rooms were dismantled, and the old-style aluminum windows on the enclosed terrace and balcony were also removed. The balcony was changed to fully tempered glass, while the terrace was left open.

The eastern side was designated by Lin Wanwan as her master bedroom, complete with an en-suite bathroom. Large floor-to-ceiling windows allowed plenty of light into the room, which was connected to a huge walk-in closet, predominantly styled in warm tones.

The fixed installations like wardrobes, walk-in closet, and bathroom cabinets were custom-made by Lin Wanwan in a modern factory, specifically choosing Hu Family Furniture Factory she got to know last time in Hai City.

The custom cabinets in the modern day were all measured first, made in the factory, and then the materials were moved into the house and assembled like building blocks — extremely efficient.

Everything was custom-made with solid wood, and Lin Wanwan didn’t ask Hu Family to give her a big discount; her main wish was for a quick completion.

The other side took it seriously indeed, finishing in just twenty days for Lin Wanwan despite the normal two-month production cycle.

Outside the master bedroom was the study, and the southwest corner was a guest bedroom linked to the guest bathroom. The north featured an integrated tatami.

Lin Wanwan opted not for complicated wall-attached installations but instead used the best-rated chalkboard paint to coat the walls, installed a ceiling, and fitted central air conditioning.

Even though it’s not fully completed yet, you couldn’t recognize any trace of the previous state on the second floor.

The master bedroom reserved for Uncle Lin Zhantian’s family and the kids’ guest rooms had been disrupted and rearranged by Lin Wanwan.

The sliding door leading to the third-floor attic was removed by Lin Wanwan, wood flooring was laid over the original cement stairs and floor.

Waterproofing in the attic was redone, focusing on warm tones. The west side was made into a storage room, filled with cabinets and iron shelves, while the east side featured lazy sofas and a home cinema.

Lying on the lazy sofa, looking up, you could see vast patches of white clouds drifting across the sky, making even the cramped space cozy and harmonious. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

It was exactly how Lin Wanwan wanted it — although she might only go up to the attic once or twice a year later, it didn’t stop her from decorating it as her dream space.

No matter if it remains empty, it doesn’t feel like a waste at all. Now that she has money, realizing all her desires is the most important thing.

This little villa, aside from the first floor which still remained as it was during her grandparents’ time, has dramatically changed on the second floor and in the attic.

Back when her grandparents were around, they didn’t like climbing stairs in their old age; they rarely ever went to even the second floor, let alone the attic.

Just keeping the first floor in its original state was enough for Lin Wanwan to pour her sentiments into.

After checking the progress, Lin Wanwan greeted the two workers and exited downstairs.

Once the flooring is laid, then it’ll be time for lighting and home appliances to come in. Modern society is so convenient; buy appliances and the brand will send workers for installation.

Returning to the computer desk in the first-floor living room, Lin Wanwan routinely checked the surveillance footage from the previous day, then went online to browse some news.

Upon opening the webpage, she saw her own heroic video on the trending list on the homepage of the search site.

"Strange, it’s been so many days, why is it still trending?"

Curious, Lin Wanwan clicked in to find out that the girl she saved had posted her experience online, protesting against the unprovoked attack by a thug while also seeking her heroic savior.

The girl really had bad luck; just because she was a bit plump and dressed a bit sexily, she was targeted by an antisocial cross-dressing weirdo.

She was inexplicably beaten into a pulp, with numerous stitches on her face, and even had a chunk gouged out of her eyelid. If not for Lin Wanwan’s timely intervention, her nose might not have been spared.

What Lin Wanwan saw at that moment was the person biting the girl’s nose.

The girl was extremely grateful that someone came to her rescue when she was helpless, but her method of seeking her benefactor was somewhat unusual, as she took to the media to shout out.

Actually, if she asked the police uncle, she might have known Lin Wanwan’s information.

After all, that day Lin Wanwan almost got detained for investigation due to her high combat power.

And it was exactly because the girl re-shared the detailed incident online that it caused a second wave of traffic.

The first wave of bought trending topics raised the attention, and naturally, the second wave drew interest as the victim directly came forward to complain.

Organic traffic no longer needs money to buy the heat.

Lin Wanwan feels as if it had been a long time since the incident because she spent so long in the Great Tang.

But in reality, only four days had passed since Lin Wanwan’s heroic act till today in the modern time.

Lin Wanwan casually glanced through the trending content and found that some very resourceful netizens had already guessed her identity through frame-by-frame screenshot analysis.

Just as she was marveling at these netizens’ boredom, her phone, which was recently taken off airplane mode, suddenly rang.

Looking down, Lin Wanwan saw it was a call from an unknown number.

"Could it be self-media or the media?"

As she answered the call, as expected, it was the media calling to verify with her.

Lin Wanwan was quite impressed with these news people’s responsiveness, but simultaneously felt speechless about the extent of the information leak.

Ever since becoming the internet celebrity "Kung Fu Girl" last year, Lin Wanwan has been sporadically harassed by unknown phone calls.

Perhaps this is a sign that she should change her number?

She had delayed changing her phone number because phone numbers are widely used in modern society and are bound to many things.

Changing numbers rashly would indeed lead to a lot of hassle.

However, after receiving three more unsolicited calls, Lin Wanwan decided to head out immediately to change her number!

Could it be more troublesome than being harassed?!

Determined, Lin Wanwan got up from the computer, grabbed the car keys, headed to the yard, and drove straight to the nearby mobile company.
