He went to give alms to the beggars, right? It was to complete a system task, okay? He doesn't act ** because neither Yixue nor Chufei are easy to deal with; he doesn't rely on Tang Long's connections to be arrogant and domineering, and that's because there are people who can make him act that way!
At this moment, Su Wen was full of integrity.
In the afternoon, the number of people at Jubaizhai decreased significantly, but there were still thousands of visitors.
Jubaizhai usually closes at 5:30 PM, but this time it was until 7 PM. However, Su Wen left at 4 PM. He hurried to the Jiangning Bridge and recovered another Water Spirit Grass. He now had 1.3 vitality. After using 0.8 vitality to recover the Water Spirit Grass, he didn't feel as weak as before, so he went home very easily.
It's worth mentioning that Su Wen found that as his vitality increased, his vitality recovery ability also became stronger. Before, he could only recover about 0.1 vitality per hour, but now he could easily recover 0.2 vitality per hour.
At 8 PM, Su Wen's vitality was back to 1.3.
In the courtyard.
The phone rang, and Su Wen saw it was Chu Lao's number.
"Chu Lao, it's already past 8 PM. Why are you calling me now?"
Chu Lao was dissatisfied: "Su Wen, you're going to be my grandson-in-law. It's only natural for me to call you whenever I want. Why are you complaining? Are you tired of me, old man? I'm still waiting for you to take good care of me."
"I wouldn't dare, how could I be tired of you," Su Wen hurriedly said, "What's the matter?"
Chu Lao didn't beat around the bush: "Here's the thing. I have three classes of cultural relic appreciation in Jiangning tomorrow afternoon. I plan to take you with me. I think it will be useful for you."
"Take me to class?" Su Wen felt his brain wasn't enough.
"You're my assistant, who else would I take?" Chu Lao immediately said, "You can also share your appraisal experience with the students. It's settled."
Su Wen wanted to say something, but the call was hung up on the other end.
"Grandpa needs you for something?" Yixue just happened to come out.
"Just a small matter," Su Wen casually said. He looked at Yixue and frowned, "By the way, how did you know I go to the slums every day to help the beggars? Were you following me?"
Hearing Su Wen's interrogative tone, Yixue ignored it and said indifferently, "I don't have the time to follow you. I just happened to see it when I was handling a case the day before yesterday. The beggars told me you come every day."
"Is that so?" Su Wen believed her.
"I never thought you were such a kind person. It seems that one can't judge a book by its cover," Yixue looked at Su Wen.
"Are you insulting me or praising me?" Su Wen was depressed.
Yixue shook her head slightly: "Grandpa has already spoken. You should think about how to pursue Fei'er."
"I won't go after her," Su Wen pouted and then said, "If it were you, I might consider it."
Yixue was stunned: "What, do you think I'm good?"
Su Wen thought for a moment: "Isn't that the case? You're knowledgeable, graceful, and suitable to be a wife."
Yixue couldn't help but laugh: "You're the first person who wants to marry me. In the past, men only dared to pursue me, but even so, the longest one only stayed with me for a month. Do you think you can do it?"
"Why can't I?" Su Wen argued with Yixue.
"You're very confident, but being too close to me will be a huge blow," Yixue shrugged, "Don't be a moth to the flame. When the time comes, you'll regret it."
"I'll try anyway."
"Truly, you won't cry until you see the coffin."
"Even if I see the coffin, I won't cry. The longest pursuer only stayed with you for a month, right? Starting today, I'll stay with you for two months." Su Wen finished speaking and turned to enter his room, but he looked back at Yixue and added, "Woman, don't be too confident. I'm much more terrifying than you think. If you fall in love with me one day, I believe that will be the real moth to the flame."
Yixue was speechless.
At 9 PM, Su Wen left his residence.
He planned to go to Jiangning University through the back door and try to complete the side mission.
Jiangning University was still bustling.
He walked inside like a passerby.
The little girl next door was studying here, but after coming to Jiangning, he hadn't contacted her.
Su Wen had promised to call Lin Xinyi when he arrived in Jiangning, but he hadn't called her even after changing his phone number for a few days.
"That little girl is very frugal. I wonder if she can eat well here?"
Thinking of this, he couldn't resist calling Lin Xinyi.
The call was answered.
"Hello, who is this?"
Su Wen said, "It's Su Wen, this is my new number."
"Brother Xiaowen, have you arrived in Jiangning?" Lin Xinyi sounded very excited.
"Um, I've already started working," Su Wen felt a bit awkward, "This is my new number. If you need anything, call this number."
"Brother Xiaowen, where are you now?" Lin Xinyi's voice was weak.
"I'm... just wandering around," Su Wen thought for a moment and didn't dare to say he was at Jiangning University.
"I'll come find you right away." The little girl seemed impatient.
Su Wen heard this and hurriedly said, "Xinyi, it's already past 9 PM. You don't need to come find me. I'll visit you when I have time."
"When will you have time?" Lin Xinyi spoke quickly.
"Um..." Su Wen thought for a moment, "Tomorrow. I have something to do at your school tomorrow. I'll treat you to a meal then."
"Okay, I'll wait for you." Lin Xinyi said excitedly.
Su Wen quickly found an excuse to hang up. He realized that he could be calm in front of Tang Xiaoyao and even Yixue, but he felt a bit nervous in front of this neighbor's little sister. He could sense that Lin Xinyi had some feelings for him, but he only saw her as a younger sister. This awkward relationship made him a bit fearful.
"It's time to recover something."
The night was just right.
He activated the Great Heavenly Dao Recovery System.
Many light points appeared, but it was unclear how many were women's items.
"Now that I have 1.3 vitality, I should search! Otherwise, I don't know when I'll complete Side Mission 3."
"Xiao Tian, search for women's items, show all light points."
This way, items with less than 0.1 vitality would also be shown.
As soon as he spoke, only about twenty light points remained.
Su Wen was stunned: "There are so many?"
He then zoomed in on a light point and found a silver pendant; he zoomed in on another and found a **; he zoomed in on another and found a pack of sanitary napkins...
Su Wen was embarrassed: "Are you kidding me?"
But suddenly, his eyes lit up: "If I only recover such women's items, I can definitely complete Side Mission 3 in less than three days. Damn, why didn't I think of this before? I wasted so much time!"
Clearly, Su Wen hadn't considered these private items as recoverable before.
Today, the system gave him a profound lesson. There's nothing the system can't recover, not even coins. If coins can be recovered, why can't women's ** and sanitary napkins, which are much more valuable?
Overjoyed, Su Wen issued the recovery command.
All the light points disappeared.
Current progress of Side Mission 3: 23/100.
Su Wen's current vitality: 0.8.
After deducting the 0.1 vitality used for the search, recovering so many women's items only cost him 0.4 vitality.
"Awesome!" Su Wen couldn't help but praise, which made the people passing by confused, and some even cursed him as an idiot.
Ignoring the crowd, Su Wen changed his location and waited for an hour.
His vitality recovered to 1.
He spent another 0.1 vitality to search and successfully recovered 22 women's items.
Current progress: 45/100.
Su Wen's vitality was now 0.4.
Today's recovery had to end here.
He looked at the recovered women's items and felt nauseous.
Finally, he decided not to put these items in the system space, so he dumped all the items in front of the library at Jiangning University.
Then he walked away without looking back, deeply hiding his identity.
