Seeing Lin Yi return,

Wang Kai was the first to smile and say:

"Third Brother, how did it go today?!"

Immediately, three pairs of eyes looked over filled with hope.

Hearing this, Lin Yi smiled, took out three tea eggs that were still warm along with some small snacks,

"Don't worry, I saved these for you!"

Saying this, he handed these items to his roommates one by one.

Fatty Wang Kai couldn't wait to peel the egg and gulped it down greedily.

After all, as a fat person, he was hungriest right after gaming.

"Third Brother's eggs are still the most delicious!"

Fatty wore a look of complete satisfaction.

Instantly, black lines appeared across Lin Yi's face.

"Uh, it's tea eggs, tea eggs!"

Fatty Wang Kai immediately grinned and corrected himself.

Meanwhile, Ye Yu lay on his bed, taking small bites to savor the taste of the tea egg while saying:

"Third Brother, have you had any thoughts lately? The beauties from the Foreign Languages Department, tsk tsk... shall I introduce some to you?

I guarantee every single one will be fresh and lively, with radiant faces and graceful figures!"

Hearing this, Lin Yi laughed:

"What about that girl from Economics and Management last time... Didn't you say that if we looked for girls in our school again, you'd be a dog? You've broken your vow, Fourth Brother!"

"Let's not mention that woman!"

Ye Yu waved his hand, acting like a playboy roaming through a garden of flowers.

Then, his eyes shining with cunning, he said to Lin Yi:

"However, I heard the girls in the Foreign Languages Department dormitory are all very beautiful this time; I'll ask the one I'm pursuing to organize a joint social event with our dorm!"

Saying this, he got up from the bed, came over to Lin Yi, and rubbed his fingers together, his meaning quite obvious:

"Sponsor us a little!"

Before Lin Yi could say anything upon hearing this,

Duan Yun spoke up:

"Fourth Brother, last time you borrowed my money claiming it was for a social event, but not a single match worked out; do you think we have yellow croaker brains?"

Immediately, Ye Yu made a dismissive sound and said contemptuously:

"Second Brother, whose fault is that? Did I not create opportunities for you?

You, a proper local from Magic City, going on a solo date with a girl, splitting the meal bill, splitting the taxi fare..."

"Let me tell you, life requires thrift, not extravagance; we locals from Magic City always split the bill when eating out!"

Duan Yun said.

"Then don't blame me; even the girls say you're stingy!"

Ye Yu looked as if he were frustrated by iron that refused to become steel.

Watching the two banter back and forth, Lin Yi recalled the joint dinner from last time.

He had actually taken a liking to a sophomore girl.

Unfortunately, on one hand, his appearance was ordinary, earning him no bonus points in terms of looks from the girl.

On the other hand, upon hearing he was from the mountainous regions of Guizhou Province, she immediately lost all desire to even speak.

Naturally, this romance that had not even begun ended right there.

However, Lin Yi didn't mind much, nor did he feel that the girl despised the poor and coveted the rich.

After all, everyone has the right to choose their own happiness.

Especially for those beautiful girls, their looks themselves are their capital;

compared to living a mundane life of firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, and tea with an ordinary person,

these girls naturally prefer to choose someone wealthy, handsome, and akin to a domineering CEO.

Lin Yi did not dislike those girls who pursued happiness,

what he disliked were only those green-tea bitches who kept countless backups, spent money others had worked hard to save,

yet wore looks of disdain.

For such people, Lin Yi politely declined any involvement.

In fact, during his few years in Magic City, he had even learned to distinguish which women were green-tea bitches.

For instance, the standard catchphrase of a green-tea bitch is always,

"He and I are just friends!"

And they frequently post selfies on social media while claiming they don't like taking photos, and so on.

Thanks to Lin Yi starting businesses and taking on part-time jobs since his freshman year, he had earned some money.

Naturally, there were green-tea bitches who had targeted him.

However, later Lin Yi discovered that the girl was being ambiguous with several other boys, so he cut his losses immediately.

Since then, he had never been in a relationship again,

Of course, most importantly, he was often out working part-time jobs and doing business, leaving him no time to indulge in romantic dalliances with girls.

"How much!?"

Lin Yi smiled and spoke to the "Love Saint."

"Hehe!" Upon hearing this, Ye Yu immediately laughed and held up three fingers.

Hearing this, Lin Yi took three hundred yuan from his pocket and handed it to him.

"Third Brother is generous, unlike certain people!" Ye Yu said, looking disdainfully at "Little Magic City."

However, Little Magic City, Duan Yun, was currently playing a coordinated game with the dorm leader, Wang Kai.

Their attention was no longer on him.

Seeing this, Ye Yu felt helpless and could only say to Lin Yi:

"Third Brother, leave everything to me; this time I will definitely help you get a girlfriend!"

Lin Yi merely smiled upon hearing this.

Although his family was very poor,

ever since coming to Magic City, apart from the initial struggles, he had actually never been short of money.

A few hundred yuan was merely two days' worth of work for him.

On the contrary, he felt these small favors were worth it to maintain good relationships within the dormitory.

As for what Love Saint Ye said about getting a girlfriend, he had not taken it to heart at all.

He knew his own situation best; once others heard he came from the mountainous regions of Guizhou Province,

these girls, who had witnessed the prosperity of Magic City, would one hundred percent not agree to anything.

Besides, Lin Yi was no novice when it came to women.

In Magic City, this place of ten miles of foreign settlements where dazzling flowers confuse the eyes,

if he ever felt too pent up, he would spend some money to relieve himself.

Among them were quite a few good-looking ones with whom he had exchanged WeChat contacts and become running partners.

Therefore, he actually did not lack for women.

Ignoring the others, Lin Yi, after a busy day, returned to the dormitory and lay down on his bed.

Then, he took out his mobile phone.

It was a Lei Lei Xiaomi 4 released last year, with a main screen size of 5.0 inches.

It supported 2G/3G/4G network bands, dual-band Wi-Fi, and dual cameras.

At the time, it had cost Lin Yi 1,999 yuan.

For him, this had already been a considerable expense.

Unfortunately, on one occasion, the phone had been dropped on the floor,

and now the upper part of the screen displayed cracks resembling a spiderweb.

Familiarly navigating to a VPN proxy on the phone, Lin Yi logged into his international account.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he came online, he received quite a few messages.

Among them, a person named "Holy War Organization" had left him a message:

"Dear Mr. 'Third World War Observer,' thank you very much... the formula you gave us for making rockets out of steel pipes, fertilizer, and sugar is really good, but... we now need some firearms and ammunition; I wonder if your side can provide them...!!!"

Lin Yi looked at the message, a smile appearing on the corners of his mouth.

Speaking of which, this might be one of his few hobbies.

He was a military enthusiast, particularly fond of various equipment and weapons from different countries.

He was also quite knowledgeable about international geopolitics.

However, compared to the domestic internet environment, he preferred to boast wildly on the foreign internet.

For instance, he had given himself an arrogant name:

"Third World War Observer," abbreviated as "Third War Observer."

Relying on his professional theoretical knowledge, recited as if listing family treasures,

the "Third War Observer" had gained quite a few fans on the foreign internet.

For this purpose, he had even created numerous edited videos and exquisite images, posting them on his account.

Among them were even active-duty equipment from quite a few countries.

At the same time, he had named his homepage the "Zhonghua Family Unofficial Weapon Flagship Store,"

claiming that he could export various types of active-duty equipment from different nations.

Although this was merely someone's eccentric taste, nothing more than empty boasting.

In his view, no one should believe it, after all, the things he uploaded could be easily found with a search on the internet.

In his view, no one would believe it, after all, everything he uploaded could be easily found with a simple online search.
