Gasp! She's a Time Traveler Using Modern Tech to Improve Ancient Life-Chapter 546 - 545: The Wingman Arrives
After being sick for three days, Lin Wanwan finally recovered.
In order to speed up the recovery, Lin Wanwan locked the door at night in the Great Tang and went back to the modern times to recuperate, which also allowed her to refresh the modern timeline.
Having a rich life at home in the modern times, although there are automatic feeders and water dispensers, and there are hourly workers who come regularly to clean up the dog’s nest, Lin Wanwan still thinks about it.
Rich is very human-like; when it’s in the yard, Lin Wanwan never locks it. As long as she’s at her modern home, she’ll open the downstairs door to let Rich come inside.
After the Lantern Festival, of course work resumed in the modern times.
Although Lin Wanwan is the boss, she still goes to the company to check in every day. She hasn’t gone these past two days, so everyone in the group started expressing their concern.
Upon knowing Lin Wanwan was sick, everyone showed their concern. Modern people’s communication mostly happens through phones, and caring is the same.
Only Su Yanwei, knowing that Lin Wanwan is alone now, came to visit once and asked if Lin Wanwan wanted him to stay home and take care of her for two days. Lin Wanwan refused, not troubling him.
As for Gu Jingyu, her identity is special now, so Lin Wanwan didn’t arrange for her to come over.
Actually, Lin Wanwan doesn’t like lying around in the cold modern home; even with the air conditioning and floor heating, it doesn’t warm her body and soul. In the Great Tang, there are people fussing over her, bringing tea and water, while in the modern times, there is only a dog to accompany her.
After having some Chinese medicine, Lin Wanwan’s symptoms are already very mild now. She leaned against the head of the bed, using her laptop to write her novel on the computer desk.
Lin Wanwan’s farming novel about the Tang Dynasty is already very long, but its update time is quite unstable. Fortunately, her readers are stable and loyal.
The readers keep asking her when the male protagonist will appear, and Lin Wanwan stared blankly at the readers’ comments for quite a while.
Male protagonist... A figure vaguely flashed in her mind, and at this moment, the phone rang.
"Yes, I see sunshine everywhere, happiness floats over the city."
It was an unknown call; Lin Wanwan swiped open the phone to answer: "Hello, who is this?"
"Is this Lin Wanwan?" A playful male voice came from the other end, "I’m Wang Bocheng."
Wang Bocheng arranged to meet Lin Wanwan for coffee at the Bund. Under the afternoon sun, even though it’s early spring and it’s an open-air café, it’s not cold.
The café faces the rolling river, making the mood feel vast.
When Lin Wanwan arrived with Rich, Wang Bocheng was already seated, smoking alone, with a cup of coffee in front of him.
Seeing her, he extinguished his cigarette and after a brief greeting, Wang Bocheng sighed, "It’s really not easy to arrange a meeting with you."
Lin Wanwan was surprised by Wang Bocheng’s words, thinking, I’m already here despite being sick, and you’re still saying this?
Wang Bocheng quickly explained the reason: "I’ve called you twice, and both times it was busy. You probably didn’t notice the unknown calls, right?"
The waiter brought the menu, and Lin Wanwan casually said: "I’ll have the same as this gentleman here."
After the coffee was served, Lin Wanwan didn’t remove her mask and explained: "I have a cold, so I won’t take off my mask to drink, to avoid spreading it to others."
Wang Bocheng took a sip of coffee himself, then his expression turned slightly serious: "You probably find it strange that I asked you out."
Indeed strange, as the two were at most acquaintances, not even having any semblance of friendship. Lin Wanwan originally wanted to refuse, but Wang Bocheng said he had something important to tell her, so she came.
Wang Bocheng glanced coldly at Lin Wanwan, suddenly speaking: "I used to always think old Lu’s orientation was abnormal. Growing up, I’ve never seen him show interest in women; he’s always either dealing with antiques or investing and making money.
There are so many colorful temptations around us, but he never seems to catch on. I didn’t expect him to finally fall for you."
Lin Wanwan was taken aback by his straightforward words, her eyes widening slightly: "How did you..."
"How do I know? As long as one isn’t blind, I think everyone around him knows." Wang Bocheng said indifferently, "He hasn’t shown any signs of wanting to hide it. Otherwise, why would you appear at his mother’s birthday party?"
Lin Wanwan lowered her eyes, not wanting to listen anymore: "Is this the important thing you said you needed to tell me? Just to criticize me?"
Wang Bocheng looked at Lin Wanwan with a complex expression, saying bitterly: "You’re really impressive!"
After a pause, he continued: "I don’t know what’s going on between you two, but you shouldn’t play with people.
This dog, it’s a retired military dog that he got for you, isn’t it? And since last year, every time there’s online scandal about you, it’s him who’s painstakingly suppressed them, right? Through my side’s PR channels. Your Yongtang embroidery shop got into Times Square, and it’s him working behind the scenes.
He just did without saying; you wouldn’t pretend not to know, right?"
Lin Wanwan held her forehead, feeling quite shocked: "What do you mean by scandals since last year?"
And Yongtang, wasn’t it her and her cousin who made connections with the person in charge of recruiting for Times Square? Lin Wanwan recalled when she told Su Yanwei about the successful entry approval, Su Yanwei’s shocked expression then.
He probably never expected it to succeed, right? So, it really was because of Lu Shouyue?
Wang Bocheng stopped without continuing, looked at Lin Wanwan for a while, then pushed a note with words written on it towards her: "There’s no need to say more. Yesterday, he ran into a car because he was in a daze. This is the hospital address, do with it as you see fit."
After speaking, he got up to pay and left, without looking back at Lin Wanwan.
He’s seen many beautiful women. Indeed, Lin Wanwan is stunning, but for someone like Wang Bocheng who likes hanging out with internet celebrities and stars, encountering various beauties is no surprise.
Just like that little vixen Wang Anni, after she signaled her intentions to him, he saw through her purpose at a glance.
He frankly told Wang Anni that he indeed had some interest in her, but it’s just a little bit. After she targeted his childhood friend’s woman, any chance of them hanging out was gone.
He doesn’t lack beautiful women to hang out with, why choose someone who could potentially affect brotherly relationships?
Actually, Wang Bocheng originally didn’t want to get involved, but he couldn’t stand seeing Lu Shouyue getting so deeply involved; he felt the need to help him out a bit, hoping to relieve his lovesickness.
Back when Wang Bocheng was with his first love, he was super innocent too.
If it wasn’t for that first love leaving him because he couldn’t afford a LV bag as a student (not knowing his family was actually quite wealthy), claiming they were from two different worlds, he perhaps wouldn’t have the carefree mentality he has now.
Wang Bocheng, thinking from himself to others, feels that Lu Shouyue just needs to go through a trial process. To make that process less painful, he decided to give him a nudge.
