Chapter 28

Art colleges were notoriously expensive, so Han Han Han Yajing gave up on them.

Yet her gaokao score would have been considered very high for an art college.

However, for a regular undergraduate program, her score fell significantly short.

After this back-and-forth, Han Han Han Yajing's file was transferred, and she ended up at Modu University of Engineering.

When Han Han Han Yajing recounted her family situation, Lin Yi couldn't help but sigh that every household has its own difficult scripture to chant.

Everyone who comes into this world must undergo some form of tribulation.

It was just that Lin Yi was fortunate enough to receive the system's favor; otherwise, even if he succeeded in the future, it might have taken him a very long time.

"Alright, let's not talk about these unpleasant things anymore!" Lin Yi said.

"Mm!" Han Han Han Yajing nodded.

"Let's go check out the department store first!" Lin Yi suggested.

"Okay!"

Thus, starting from the western end, the two visited the original Da Xin Department Store and the Modu Bedding Company.

This was especially true at the Bedding Company.

Since neither of them knew what the place sold, they discovered upon entering that it specialized in bedding supplies.

In particular, when the sales assistant saw the pair, she assumed they were a newlywed couple shopping for bedding and proceeded to push her sales pitch relentlessly.

This left Han Han Han Yajing flushed with embarrassment, feeling extremely awkward.

In contrast, Lin Yi, being an old hand at such situations, felt nothing of the sort and instead watched with keen interest.

After leaving the Bedding Company, Han Han Han Yajing looked at Lin Yi, who wore a mischievous grin, and said:

"Did you know about this all along and deliberately bring me here?"

"I swear, my injustice rivals that of Dou E!" Lin Yi replied.

"Hmph!" The beautiful Han looked as though she were puffing up in anger.

However, just as Lin Yi was about to say something else,

he noticed that many people on Nanjing Road would stop when they saw Han Han Han Yajing, with some men even walking straight into pillars.

What's more, some individuals even approached directly, attempting to strike up a conversation with the beauty.

However, the beauty immediately refused and grabbed Lin Yi's arm.

Instantly, those young men who considered themselves handsome and had hoped to chat her up wore expressions of deep disappointment.

Eventually, Lin Yi could only pull the beauty away and leave.

Shortly after their departure, the internet erupted.

"Nanjjing Pedestrian Street: Discovered a 'super beautiful sister,' pictures and truth included!"

Some people even uploaded videos they had just recorded to the web:

"Wow, she's truly stunning; could she be using some kind of beauty filter? She looks just like a fairy!"

"Heavy reward offered for information on the girl in the video; contact via WeChat ** if you have leads."

"I finally believe in love at first sight as described online; I just want to lick the screen!"

As the online buzz fermented, many netizens became aware of Han Han Han Yajing's photos and videos.

Relying on her exquisite features and an ethereal temperament that seemed untouched by mortal dust, Han Han Han Yajing instantly skyrocketed to the trending lists of numerous media outlets.

Even more people offered heavy rewards for information about her.

It bore a striking resemblance to the sensation caused years ago by Milk Tea Sister, who shot to fame from a single photo of herself holding a cup of milk tea in her classroom.

However, at that moment, Han Han Han Yajing remained unaware of any of this.

Lin Yi bought a face mask, which finally concealed the beauty's face.

Lin Yi gazed at her face for a moment, then smiled and said:

"With a face like yours, to be honest, you could debut in the entertainment industry tomorrow if you wanted to!"

"Not interested!" Han Han Han Yajing shook her head.

"Really not interested? You should know that celebrities can earn a lot of money!" Lin Yi remarked.

"Do you really hope that I enter the entertainment industry?"

Han Han Han Yajing blinked her beautiful eyes as she asked.

"Of course I don't; the entertainment circle is so chaotic. I prefer Han Han Han Yajing the university student, not Han Han Han Yajing the actress!"

Lin Yi said.

Hearing this, a smile curled the corners of Han Han Han Yajing's lips.

"Senior, are you worried about me?"

"Uh, I suppose so!" Lin Yi replied with an unchanged expression.

"Heehee!" Han Han Han Yajing laughed happily, then promptly grabbed Lin Yi's arm and headed toward the nearby famous No. 1 Food Store.

Inside were many of Modu's specialty delicacies.

Although many local Modu natives claimed that only outsiders visited the Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street, arguing that the goods there were overpriced and poor quality—a sort of intelligence tax—

Lin Yi and Han Han Han Yajing were, in fact, outsiders themselves.

Since it was a rare occasion for them to visit Nanjing Road, they naturally intended to buy some specialty snacks.

Upon entering the No. 1 Food Store, they found many middle-aged women and elderly men queuing to purchase items.

The entire store was incredibly lively, resembling the rush of buying New Year goods during the Spring Festival.

Both sides of the food store displayed various exquisite specialty delicacies,

with major brand shops including Hashi, Huadian, Lao Xiang Zhai, and Red House; most notably, there was also a flagship store for the time-honored brand White Rabbit.

Seeing these delicacies, the beauty's eyes clearly sparkled with an inexplicable light, looking eager to try everything.

Consequently, Lin Yi became the little errand boy.

"This one, this one... and this one too..." The beauty transformed into a foodie as she spoke.

Since these snacks weren't expensive anyway, she did not refuse Lin Yi's treat.

Subsequently, the two purchased coconut bars, butterfly pastries, almond bars, chicken biscuits, and more.

When the two of them walked out of the First Food Store, their hands were filled with many bags of food.

"Mm, this coconut steak is truly excellent; no wonder Yueyue recommended it to me last time!"

While eating, Beauty Han squinted her eyes, appearing to enjoy it immensely.
