Becoming a true immortal through my descendents' praying

Chapter 5: Chapter 5 Lin Yue



```

Chen Wanting is Yang Genshuo's girlfriend, a 22 years old senior college student. They had met two and a half years ago at his murder mystery game store, and they planned to marry right after her graduation.

At this moment, Yang Genshuo desperately needed Chen Wanting to share in the family's developmental dividends and to taste the impact of the Giant Dragon!

On the phone, Chen Wanting said in a deliberate manner, "Shuo bro, I have my graduation thesis defense in a few days, and I'm pretty busy. I'll visit another day."

"Today,, it's urgent. I have good news for you, come quickly!"

"Has 'Enigma' murder mystery game store come back from the brink? Or did you sell it for a good price? Just tell me the good news over the phone. I'm really busy, Shuo bro."

"Hmm..." Yang Genshuo thought for a moment before adopting a teasing tone, "I sold all three stores and still owe the bank 200,000."

"Fine, fine. I don't understand business matters, and I can't visit you these days. Let's talk after graduation." An impatient tone came from the other end of the phone.

"And our wedding? Can't we discuss that a bit?"

"Shuo bro, about getting married... we need to put that on hold. I talked to my mom the day before yesterday about us. My family is quite traditional. My mom said that, on our side, at least 600,000 is required for the bride price..."

"In the West, the word 'father' was invented around the year 1500. Do you know what they called 'father' in 1499?"

"Huh? What?" Chen Wanting was confused by the question.

"Motherfucker!"

Du du du~

Hearing the noise from the other end of the phone, Chen Wanting was taken aback for a moment, then touched her face.

"Did I just get cursed out?"

The roommate in the upper bunk asked, "Was that another call from your dear Shuo bro? We're not that busy lately. Why not go out and have fun with him?"

Another roommate commented, "600,000 for a bride price, wow! Wanting, that's really high where you're from! Aren't you afraid you'll scare him away?"

"Pfft~ I was just playing with him. Who knew he would get serious about marriage? He should take a look at his age; it's so ridiculous!"

The roommate in the upper bunk agreed, "Exactly, exactly. Middle-aged greasy men really turn me off!"

The roommate who had been quietly reading by the window closed her book, picked up her backpack, and headed straight out of the dorm room.

"An He, where are you going?"

Liu Anhe turned her head, revealing a face that made all her roommates envious, and said calmly:

"There are flies in the room; they're disturbing my reading. I'm going out for some air."

...

After hanging up, Yang Genshuo let out a cold laugh.

"Drinking, clubbing, not coming home at night, you say you're a modern independent woman, but when it comes to the bride price, you start listening to your mom, huh?"

"What a fucking XXN."

He still remembered how, when he first brought up the topic of marriage, and her family did not agree, she snuggled in his arms and said, "I can make my own decisions about my own life."

"Damn, you really know how to act."

This year he had been frantically trying to save his three stores from failure and had no time to think about their relationship. But in reality, the signs were already there.

Her replies on WeChat had become slower and slower, her temper had grown worse and worse, the frequency of their sex life had diminished...

"Heh, well then, just fuck off."

For someone like Chen Wanting, who had metaphorically 'left the Party' in 1948, Yang Genshuo could only respond with a string of scoffs.

"Heh heh heh heh~"

After scoffing, the effects of the medication surged again!

"Damn! Why is this medicine so strong!"

He remembered how Yang Shi, every time after taking Solid Essence Rejuvenation Pills, would go crazy practicing boxing and cudgel skills, as if there was endless energy within his body.

Now he understood the source of that energy.

"Do I have to start practicing boxing too?"

"I don't even know how!"

As the medication spread, the cooling sensation had disappeared, and the heat began to spread outward from his lower abdomen, intensifying even more.

At this point, he needed to find an outlet for it.

"Screw it, I'll just practice randomly!"

He opened the Keep app and started a fitness course he had saved five years ago.

Burpees, squats, lunges, touch-the-ground sprints, push-ups, sit-ups, crunches, planks...

He didn't care anymore; whatever the course included, he did it all, and then moved on to the next session. The medication's effects spread throughout his body with his vigorous exercise, and the heat began to dissipate with his sweat.

"It's working!"

Yang Genshuo exercised with even more enthusiasm. Under the influence of the pills, his body recovered quickly, and he felt no fatigue whatsoever.

A cloud gym enthusiast for five years, he finally had his governor and conception vessels opened by a pill.

Ding dong ding dong~

The sound of the doorbell woke Yang Genshuo from his immersive workout. He glanced at his watch; he had been exercising frantically for an hour and a half.

```

```

"Phew~ I feel so much better now, or I really would have suffocated."

I grabbed a towel in the yard, wiped off the sweat, and opened the door.

Outside stood a girl dressed in a loose white shirt with denim dungarees, her small sleeves rolled up revealing her pale arms, and a folk-style wind chime bracelet on her wrist. She looked fresh and tranquil, like the girl-next-door straight out of a comic strip.

"Lin Yue, what brings you here?"

Lin Yue's lips curled into a smile before she extended her right hand, holding up a bag of bananas.

"Oh, hand them over to me."

Yang Genshuo took the fruit from Lin Yue's hand, but suddenly his expression changed, and he walked into the courtyard, hunched over.

Lin Yue watched Yang Genshuo's peculiar behavior with a look of puzzlement on her face.

"Have a seat, have a seat."

Yang Genshuo gestured for Lin Yue to sit down on the wooden chair under the newly sprouted pomegranate tree.

"Just a moment!"

Then he hunched over to the study, grabbed a small blanket, covered his waist with it, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Lin Yue looked on with confusion as Yang Genshuo scurried back and forth.

She took out her phone and started typing.

Ding-dong~

[Lin Yue: "Are you cold, brother Genshuo?"]

Yang Genshuo picked up his phone to reply.

[Yang Genshuo: "A little."]

[Lin Yue: "But you're sweating profusely."]

[Yang Genshuo: "It's cold sweat."]

Bad, bad, bad!

Don't look up! Don't look up!

Damn! Why hasn't the effect of the pills worn off yet!

Lin Yue glanced at Yang Genshuo, who was mopping his brow with sweat, clutching the small blanket tightly, her eyes brimming with confusion.

She took a banana from the bag, peeled it and offered it to Yang Genshuo.

Ding-ling-ling-ling~

Lin Yue shook her left hand, and the sound of the wind chime bracelet filled the air.

Yang Genshuo took the banana naturally, eating it while texting on his phone; Lin Yue did the same, and they chatted on their phones sitting under the pomegranate tree.

"Why did you come?"

"Just checking on the boss."

"Why check on me? I'm not sick."

"Why don't you take Lin Yue's money? Xiao Zhi said the boss still owes money."

"Uh... it's not a lot of money, I can easily scrape it together, I don't need yours. You keep it for yourself."

"Oh." "So will you still be a boss? I want to work with you."

Yang Genshuo's hand twitched, nearly flinging his phone away.

What kind of talk is that!

He glanced at Lin Yue, who was busy typing, her slender neck and faultless, snow-white skin peeking through the loose shirt, a faint scent wafting in the air, her youthfulness and beauty captivating, Yang Genshuo swallowed hard and quickly directed his attention back to his phone.

"Let's see, for now, I'm planning to take a rest, work out a bit. I've gotten really fat over the years, haha."

"Without a job, Lin Yue doesn't know what to do. Since the shop closed, I've been thinking about the boss every day."

"..."

"Boss, if you open a new shop, I'll work for you for free."

"Uh... Let's talk about that later. You don't have to wait for me; find another job first."

"Nobody but the boss would give Lin Yue a job."

"..."

He looked up, and his gaze collided with Lin Yue's eyes, clear as lake water.

Lin Yue's eyes could speak, a fact well-known by all the staff at Mystery script murder, and just by looking at you, she could make you understand what she wanted to say.

At this moment, Lin Yue's eyes conveyed a sense of dependence.

"Sigh... you're so pretty, how could no one want to employ you? But... how could anyone genuinely want you to work, right?"

This was something he said to himself and didn't type out for Lin Yue.

Ding-dong~

The doorbell rang again.
