YM778.TV Chapter 24: Chapter 24 Can't Hang on One Tree Alone
"Coming back so late, confess honestly, did you two go to a hotel?"
Wang Chang looked Sun Yi up and down, her face full of gossip as she spoke.
"No! What nonsense are you talking about?"
Sun Yi was startled by her bold guess: "We just had dinner together, and then casually strolled around a bit."
"Casually strolled around?"
Wang Chang\'s eyes were full of suspicion: "Just a casual stroll, then why is your face all flushed?"
"Exactly!"
Fang Yingying chimed in as well: "And you\'re smiling so seductively!"
Hearing their words, Sun Yi couldn\'t help but be startled.
Am I really like this now?
"Really, no!"
Sun Yi immediately covered her face with her hands: "Enough talk, I\'m going to take a shower!"
With that, she fled to the bathroom.
Approaching the mirror, she indeed saw her cheeks were flushed and her eyes were charming, the very image of someone with a heart aflutter.
This is too embarrassing!
"It\'s all Wu Wei\'s fault!"
Sun Yi complained, stomping her foot in embarrassment.
Just earlier, at the school gate, Wu Wei had hugged her and kissed her passionately, even nibbled on her other earlobe, that\'s why she looked this way.
Sun Yi looked at her own blushing earlobe in the mirror and then gently touched it.
Why don\'t I feel anything when I touch it myself, but I can\'t stand it when Wu Wei kisses it...
Recalling the tingling sensation from earlier, Sun Yi\'s cheeks inevitably began to heat up again.
Her body also started to feel a bit restless.
She took off her dress and removed her mask, placing it on the rack, and it was clear that the mask had turned two different colors.
The edges were the usual pink, but the middle had been dampened to a deeper water color.
It was obvious that today, her moisture was quite heavy.
However, for her at this moment, this was a good thing, greatly aiding in the game she was about to play.
Soon, the bathroom filled with the sound of a pleasant BGM, and the game began...
"47 plus 1, 48."
Seeing that Sun Yi\'s single count had increased again, Wu Wei felt a surge of refreshment and pride within: "She must\'ve been overwhelmed by my kisses."
However, he soon became puzzled and dismayed.
Today, he had ordered food, shown his face, touched, and kissed, one could say he reaped quite a bit.
He could clearly sense that his relationship with Sun Yi was getting closer and closer.
But strangely, the favorability rating hadn\'t increased at all.
An entire day, stuck at 69 points without budging an inch!
This made no sense!
Wu Wei immediately addressed the system: "System, is there a problem with your favorability calculation? I\'ve kissed Sun Yi to that extent, how could there not be any increase in favorability, isn\'t that wrong?"
The system immediately replied: [Confirmed as correct! Please note, Host, that as the goddess\'s favorability towards you reaches a new stage, the difficulty of increasing it also goes up. At the end of each stage, there is a favorability bottleneck. Only by breaking through the current stage\'s bottleneck can you reach the next stage.]
Wu Wei read the explanation twice before he fully understood the system\'s meaning.
Simply put, he had encountered a bottleneck.
69 and 70 are not just a simple difference of one favorability point.
They mark the vast difference between the stages "Heartthrob" and "Liking"!
Now, if he wanted to continue to increase favorability, to break through 69 points, he needed to make Sun Yi fall for him!
And after "Liking," the stages of "In Love" and "Deep Love" would be much the same.
Wu Wei said with some reluctance: "But I feel like Sun Yi has already started to like me."
System: [The system has strict criteria for each stage of favorability. The host\'s feelings are not accurate, please refer to the system\'s data for accuracy.]
Following that, the system presented a set of favorability rating criteria.
Upon inspection, Wu Wei realized that according to those standards, Sun Yi indeed had not reached the level of liking him.
Wu Wei frowned slightly, beginning to think.
He actually knew that a person\'s subjective feelings, many times, are not accurate, especially when it comes to emotions.
Sometimes you think you really like someone, but in fact, you might only have some fondness for her.
Sometimes you think you\'ve been in love with someone for many years, to the point of obsession, but it\'s very possible she\'s just a fixation of yours, and doesn\'t even qualify as a liking.
Some sweet couples might always be in the stage of fondness or having a crush, some loving husband and wife might never truly fall in love with each other...
All these are quite possible.
Although his relationship with Sun Yi had progressed quickly these past few days, there just hadn\'t been enough time!
Only three days!
To have gotten her to the peak of "having a crush" was already beyond expectations.
Aiming for "liking" was indeed somewhat unrealistic.
After all, a "crush" can be based purely on feelings, but "liking" needs a much deeper understanding, or a stronger stimulus.
Clearly, that wasn\'t something achievable in a short period of time.
Of course, there are people who can grow to like, even to love someone in just a few days.
But clearly, that wasn\'t Sun Yi.
Otherwise, she wouldn\'t have gone all these years without ever having been moved to date someone.
In plain terms, the time spent together was too short, Sun Yi\'s understanding of him now was too little and too superficial.
So her level of affection for him could only remain at the relatively superficial stage of having a crush.
After realizing this, Wu Wei couldn\'t help but feel a headache coming on.
In that case, he had to be prepared for a long-term strategy.
...
In the next two days, while interacting with Sun Yi, Wu Wei intentionally showed her more aspects of himself.
However, the affection level still hadn\'t budged.
Wu Wei couldn\'t help feeling anxious.
Sun Yi\'s attitude towards relationships was too cautious, he couldn\'t be sure how long it would take for her to "deeply love" him.
A month, two months, or even longer.
And right now, his money would only last for up to two months in Jicheng.
That meant he had to raise Sun Yi\'s affection level to 90 within these two months.
Otherwise, he would have to leave.
And once he left, starting a long-distance relationship, reaching 90 for a cashback would be even harder!
"No, I can\'t put all my eggs in one basket."
Thinking this, Wu Wei already had an idea in his mind.
"I need to find a woman whose affection level can be increased by spending money on her, to quickly boost the affection level to 90 within a short time. She gets the money, I take the cashback, and everyone gets what they need."
Wu Wei decided to find a tool person for spending money to claim a cashback first.
That would be safer.
After all, he still had over nineteen million sitting in the system account that he couldn\'t spend!
However, goddesses above 80 points, with a one in ten thousand chance, weren\'t something he could find right away.
Wu Wei first thought of the beauties he knew in real life.
He quickly opened WeChat and started checking the information of the high school belle.
To his surprise, her appearance score was only 65 points, and the number of people lining up was already in the double digits!
Wu Wei was stunned.
He never expected that the pure goddess in the hearts of most of the boys in his class could be so promiscuous in private!
Lucky he didn\'t like her back then, otherwise he\'d be as miserable as if he had eaten excrement.
Yingying is much better!
Just as pure as Yingying purified water!
As for the belles from other classes, Wu Wei didn\'t have their contact information and naturally wasn\'t able to check, but the likelihood of them reaching 80 was very low.
Next, Wu Wei checked the college belle and those beauties he met after graduating. Their appearance scores were also only in the sixties.
The only one above seventy was already married.
But Wu Wei didn\'t get discouraged.
If there was none in reality, then he would look online.
With so many beauties on the internet, there must be some over eighty points!
Thinking this, Wu Wei immediately opened the short video app.
