Chapter 143: Chapter 129: Returning Home
Laila waited patiently at the arranged meeting point, leaning against a wall and constantly scanning her surroundings for the familiar figure.
Luckily, she and Aria hadnāt brought much luggage on their trip, so they didnāt need to check any bags.
Otherwise, they really might have been late!
A moment later, a solid black Jaguar XFL pulled up in front of Laila. Lin Shen and Aria then got out from the driverās and passengerās seats, respectively.
"Sorry, Laila!"
Aria trotted over to Laila, grabbed her own luggage, and started heading into the airport.
"Letās go!"
"Hey! Wait a minute."
Laila, who had been in a hurry to catch her flight just a moment ago, suddenly found her gaze drawn to Lin Shen.
He walked over, smiled, and extended his right hand, speaking fluent English as if it were his native tongue.
"Hello, my name is Lin Shen. Iām a friend of Ariaās. Itās a pleasure to meet you."
"Hello! Iām Laila Schultz!"
Laila looked Lin Shen up and down, then nudged Aria with her elbow, a meaningful smile playing on her lips.
"Aria, you ate well last night! This Huaxia man is way too handsome!"
"Thank you for the compliment."
Lin Shen said humbly, and his gentle and refined demeanor made Lailaās favorable impression of him soar.
Just as she was about to say something excitedly, Aria suddenly pulled her away.
"Lin Shen, Iām leaving! Iāll miss you!"
"Me too!"
Aria turned back and reluctantly waved goodbye to Lin Shen, while Laila teased her from the side.
"Why didnāt you give him a farewell kiss? After all, who knows when youāll be back in Modu."
"Thatās not necessary."
Aria glanced away, a little guiltily. This made Laila look her up and down, and she suddenly noticed two small details.
First, she was walking a little funny, clearly the after-effects of cramps from keeping her legs raised or standing for a long time.
Second, the strange mark on her face.
"Whatās that on the corner of your mouth?"
Hm?
Ariaās expression faltered. She wiped the spot with the back of her hand and hurriedly explained.
"Itās from the white congee I had for breakfast. I must have gotten some on my face."
"Is that so?"
Laila blinked, not dwelling on it.
Because what she was most curious about now was what exactly had happened between Aria and Lin Shen yesterday.
āTo think she didnāt come back all night!ā
"So, how was that guyās performance?"
Facing Lailaās question, Aria suddenly became shy like a little girl, tucking her hair, her words filled with nothing but praise for Lin Shen.
"Heās incredible! From ten oāclock last night until past two in the morning today... Iāve never met anyone more amazing than him!"
"Over four hours?"
Laila was completely stunned.
āIs he even human?ā
"He doesnāt have some kind of medical condition, does he?"
"Heās very healthy, and I like him a lot."
Aria said, full of longing.
"If I get the chance, Iām definitely coming back to Modu!"
---
After watching Aria walk into the airport terminal, Lin Shen couldnāt help but let out a soft sigh of relief.
He got back into the driverās seat of the Jaguar XFL, drove away from the temporary drop-off lane, and turned on the carās fragrance diffuser and the air conditionerās external circulation to air out the smell.
Just then, he suddenly received a text message about a penalty.
[Dear Mr. Lin Shen, you are being fined two hundred yuan because your front passenger was not wearing a seatbelt. Please log in to the app to pay promptly.]
"As expected..."
Lin Shen shook his head with a laugh, not at all bothered by the small fine. His mind was still savoring the amorous encounter with Aria that had just taken place in the car.
He had to admit, the German girlās technique was truly excellent!
Not only was she obedient in her service, but she even knew how to look up with seductive eyes to add emotional value.
Simply fantastic!
Lin Shen found an empty spot in a nearby parking lot, pulled in, and then leaned back in the driverās seat, closing his eyes to rest.
After all, last nightās evenly matched battle had consumed a great deal of his energy.
But overall, he was still the winner.
āTwo whole large boxes!ā
Even Lin Shen found it incredible.
āI was actually that vigorous?ā
But in any case, after this battle, Lin Shen had a clear understanding of his own limits.
He could dominate one, handle two with ease, and three was the perfect number.
Lin Shen took a deep breath and exhaled slowly, then took out his phone to check his GoGo Maps mission status.
His purpose in driving Aria to the airport wasnāt just out of the goodness of his heart.
[Upgrade Mission: Check in at the Airport (Completed).]
[GoGo Maps Lv. 15 ā Lv. 16]
[Reward: Venture Capital accumulated per Red Point passed increased from 160,000 ā 170,000. Current accumulation: 7,990,000]
[Reward Item: Random Scratch-Off Card x1]
[Upgrade Mission: Check in at a relatively luxurious high-end residential complex.]
"So the venture capital is almost at eight million..."
This was within Lin Shenās expectations. He hadnāt driven this route to the airport much, so he had accumulated a lot of Red Points.
šš»š®š®š¬ššššøš«šš”.š¬šøš
He passed seven of them on this one trip, adding a whole 1,190,000 to his venture capital!
āNow I have enough capital to proceed with the next step in the proposal.ā
Lin Shen opened the Random Scratch-Off Card. He thought it would be money or stats again, but instead, he got something strange.
[Congratulations on opening 18 Scratch-Off Cards in a row! Youāve hit the pity reward: +0.5cm]
Huh?
Lin Shen was a little dazed. After the realization hit, his heart suddenly started racing.
He quickly opened his personal panel in Sports Health to see if it was what he thought it was.
[Constitution: 84/85]
[Spirit: 81/82]
[Kidney Power: 70/87]
[Charm: 80]
[Length: 8cm/16cm, Front/Back]
[Height: 182.5cm; Weight: 78kg]
"Fuck!"
Lin Shen couldnāt help but curse. The anticipation in his heart was instantly dashed.
āI thought it meant *that* part, but it was *that* part?!ā
Just as Lin Shen was furiously complaining in his head, as if by design, Jiang Wan and Lin Ping both sent him a WeChat message at the same time.
