I could give that a try.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After lunch, the group went their separate ways at the entrance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Skinny Monkey and the others were taking the bus.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Jia didn’t want to see Qi Sheng and Tan Hua making eyes at each other.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Plus, sitting on the hump in the middle of the back seat was a pain, so she decided to take the bus as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With Chen Jia gone, the atmosphere in the car became much more relaxed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qi Sheng put on a Jay Chou playlist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He never used to have money for subscriptions, but now he’d bought annual memberships for both QQ Music and NetEase Cloud Music.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Being rich is so freeing!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The drive from Jia City to Fujin would take about two hours.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During the drive, Tan Hua opened up to Qi Sheng for the first time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Have you ever thought about moving to Chengdu in the future?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qi Sheng, who had been lounging lazily, immediately sat up straight. He realized the answer to this question could determine whether they would end up together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I actually really like Chengdu. I visited once, but back then, there wasn’t anyone who made me want to stay. If you want me to go, I can consider it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tan Hua rolled her eyes at him but also breathed a sigh of relief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At least Qi Sheng was genuinely considering moving to Chengdu for her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was a hundred times better than the long-distance relationship she had been stressing over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I never said I wanted you to go to Chengdu. Whether you go or not is up to you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a touch of feigned aloofness, Tan Hua turned her head to gaze out the window.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the slight smile playing on her lips betrayed her true feelings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qi Sheng snuck a glance at the two girls in the back. They were both fast asleep with their headphones on.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He reached out and took Tan Hua’s slender, delicate hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are you crazy?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tan Hua jumped, her eyes darting to the back seat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing her two roommates still sleeping soundly, her racing heart finally calmed a bit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ahem, this is my answer. I’m willing to go to Chengdu for you. So, will you be my girlfriend?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hmph. We’ll see how you behave!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She said that, but she couldn’t hide the smile spreading across her face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And so, with a silent understanding, Qi Sheng kept his left hand on the steering wheel and his right hand wrapped around Tan Hua’s soft, delicate one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’I’m just saying, if she were to use those little hands of hers to do some ’handiwork’ for me, I’d be ecstatic.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Bah! I have a girlfriend now, what’s the point of doing my own ’handiwork’?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They didn’t let go of each other’s hands until the car came to a stop.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tan Hua shot Qi Sheng a playful glare and whispered, \"Stop it. It’ll be bad if they see.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, they had only just met. Tan Hua would be mortified if her roommates saw them holding hands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright, then give me a kiss.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don’t push it, or I’ll stop talking to you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing him push his luck, Tan Hua looked slightly indignant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Just on the cheek. They’re about to wake up, you know.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qi Sheng whispered his threat, refusing to let go of her hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’A man has to take the initiative, right?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’After holding hands, you naturally have to plan your next move.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then you’re not allowed to turn your head suddenly. If you do, I’ll really ignore you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tan Hua had clearly watched her share of TV dramas and warned him beforehand, not trusting him completely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Uh... fine. But be quick about it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qi Sheng was a little frustrated that Tan Hua had seen right through his little scheme.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hmph. I knew you were up to no good.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tan Hua shot him a glare, then bashfully leaned in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her soft, cherry-like lips gently pressed against his cheek.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"There, happy now?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tan Hua was so embarrassed she felt like her face was hot enough to cook an egg on.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I guess that’ll do.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qi Sheng didn’t dare push things too far either.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was no benefit in truly pissing Tan Hua off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’It was like boiling a frog in lukewarm water; sooner or later, Tan Hua would be his for the taking.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Nana, you guys, wake up!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Qi Sheng let go of her hand, Tan Hua felt a pang of emptiness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But not daring to linger, she quickly woke up Song Na and Zhao Qian in the back seat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mmm... Are we here?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Song Na and Zhao Qian exchanged a look, pretending they had just woken up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In reality, they had witnessed the whole thing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tan Hua forced a calm expression, nodding with a smile. \"I saw you two were sleeping so soundly, I didn’t have the heart to wake you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Haha, you’re so thoughtful, Huahua.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Song Na and Zhao Qian secretly rolled their eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Good thing we were in the back seat,’ they thought. ’Otherwise, those two would have been all over each other.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The bus isn’t here yet. Let’s go check in first,\" Tan Hua said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tan Hua didn’t dare stay with Qi Sheng any longer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’How long have we even known each other? He’s already held my hand and forced me to kiss his cheek.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’If I don’t keep my distance, I’m afraid he’ll devour me completely.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qi Sheng helped them with their luggage and went with them to the front desk, where they got two standard twin rooms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While there, an amusing little incident occurred.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The receptionist assumed Qi Sheng and Tan Hua were a couple.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They had just assigned them a room with a king-sized bed when Qi Sheng had to ask to change it to a standard twin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tan Hua was mortified and secretly pinched Qi Sheng’s side a few times.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You can’t blame me. We just look too much like a married couple.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qi Sheng was pushing his luck while playing innocent, trying to get Tan Hua accustomed to the idea of them as a couple.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’With the system’s upgrade as a temptation, he was more motivated than ever to win Tan Hua over quickly.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I can’t be bothered with you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tan Hua pulled Song Na and Zhao Qian into their room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qi Sheng shrugged and went to the other room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as they were in the room, Song Na and Zhao Qian started teasing Tan Hua mercilessly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We saw you kiss Qi Sheng in the car,\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Song Na blurted out. She couldn’t help it; Tan Hua looked too cute when she was embarrassed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Huh?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tan Hua was stunned. \"You really saw that?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yup, saw it crystal clear. Speaking of which, are you really planning to date him?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao Qian added with a curious smile and a nod.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Well... if he really moves to Chengdu, I’ll consider it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tan Hua decided to be honest with her roommates.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To be fair, having Qi Sheng as a boyfriend would be nothing to be ashamed of.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was young, drove an A8, and had tens of thousands in pocket money every month.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was tall, handsome in a clean-cut way, and multi-talented.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even a \"goddess\" is human and can get a crush on a guy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wow, that’s great!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Song Na and Zhao Qian weren’t jealous; on the contrary, they were happy for her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They knew their own limits; otherwise, they might have tried pursuing Qi Sheng themselves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beautiful girls are rare, but a guy who’s tall, rich, and handsome is even harder to come by.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh, come on, nothing’s set in stone yet. It’s still up in the air whether it’ll actually happen.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tan Hua was also worried that Qi Sheng was just playing with her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he didn’t end up moving to Chengdu, her feelings would be for nothing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That’s why, until Qi Sheng actually moved to Chengdu for her, she wouldn’t let him take too many liberties.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Holding hands was the absolute limit of what she was willing to accept for now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If she were as open as Chen Jia, she wouldn’t have kept her perfect score until now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She would have been \"plucked\" long ago in college.\u003C\u002Fp>",1467,"2026-06-03T03:29:35.555Z","2026-06-03T03:29:39.083Z",1,"novelbin.me","c9b7237c63e0a9a574d292ead3614844afae611c7e967cf1fec5502263f59fe9","tycoon-i-have-an-unlimited-modifier-chapter-11","tycoon-i-have-an-unlimited-modifier-chapter-9",116,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Ftycoon-i-have-an-unlimited-modifier-cover.jpg"]
