Everything I Got from Online Shopping Was Legit

Chapter 41: Awesome Beyond Words

What did it mean to not want to work hard? He very much wanted to work hard! In this day and age, who didn’t want to make progress?

Lin Mo suddenly realized that even though he had the shopping page, if he wanted to achieve financial freedom, it was still far less easy than living off a rich woman. Of course, that was only if he could actually pull it off.

That evening, inside a rather high-end Cantonese restaurant, his cousin Su He had been laughing at the table for quite a while. Finally, she looked at Lin Mo, who had been transformed by Liu Rushuang, and couldn’t help but say:

“Little brother, I’ve told you long ago, you really do have potential in this area. Tell me honestly, were you really not tempted at all back then? A house in Jiangning, even if it’s just 100 square meters, in an average location, with renovations it’d still cost over two million.

From now on, you won’t have to worry about going hungry!”

Faced with his cousin’s teasing, Lin Mo replied helplessly: “I’m afraid that’s the kind of money I’d live to earn but wouldn’t live to spend. Honestly, before, when I saw online news about gold-digging women or men living off women, I used to be a bit envious. Envious that they’d never have to worry about food or clothing.

But now, I’m not envious at all. I only admire them. That kind of money they earned—I don’t feel jealous one bit, really!”

He was absolutely speaking from the heart. What young man hadn’t fantasized about being chosen by a rich woman? But when faced with such an opportunity in real life, very few had the courage to take it.

Be it man or woman, anyone who could eat from that bowl of rice—he felt not the slightest jealousy. They were pure warriors.

As the saying went: fear was humanity’s instinct, but courage was humanity’s song.

How many people actually had that ability? He, after all, was just an ordinary man.

But no sooner had he finished speaking than Liu Rushuang cut in: “And who was it that played the ‘progress song’ for me in the car today, saying he wanted to make progress?

You should have said this earlier. I gave you a chance before, but you didn’t take it. Now after seeing the flawed ones outside, you suddenly realize elder sister is better? Too late~”

At that, Lin Mo curled his lips. Who would have thought that such a big boss like Liu Rushuang would even know the “progress song”? Were bosses this free?

Meanwhile, cousin Su He chuckled: “This old cucumber might look good, but she’ll only let you look, not touch. Purely teasing you.

If you actually believed her nonsense, then you’d be far too naive.”

Liu Rushuang rolled her eyes at that but didn’t argue back.

“I heard from Rushuang that stuff isn’t cheap. I don’t have that much money. You’re going back to school soon anyway, so let me transfer you twenty thousand for pocket money! For the rest, you ask this rich woman here. She has plenty!” Su He spoke with some embarrassment.

Though Lin Mo was her cousin, using something that expensive still left her feeling uneasy. Mostly, she knew her cousin’s family wasn’t rich, so she couldn’t just act like it had never happened.

“Cousin, you’re being too polite. It’s just skincare. I only happened to meet a wealthy young lady at work, and she gave it to me herself. It’s really not that valuable.”

Lin Mo refused politely. After all, even though the product worked well, it didn’t even have a clear price. He really didn’t care that much.

“Alright then, it’s settled. Your most important task now is to hurry back to school and find yourself a girlfriend. Once you leave school, it’s hard to meet a pure girl. And since it’s dating, how could it not cost money?

My little brother is so handsome now—when you go back, shouldn’t you be bouncing up and down with all the tall girls chasing after you?” As she said this, Su He laughed at herself, but it was obvious that she now had full confidence in her cousin.

The three of them continued eating and chatting in a pleasant atmosphere, until Su He heard that Liu Rushuang had taken Lin Mo for a massage that afternoon. Her sharp gaze immediately shifted toward Liu Rushuang.

“What are you staring at? Haven’t you seen a chiropractic massage before? My cervical and lumbar spine have been bad lately. After shopping all afternoon, what’s wrong with enjoying myself a bit?” Liu Rushuang rolled her eyes and snapped.

Hearing this, Su He finally breathed a sigh of relief, then muttered: “Oh, so it was proper? Boring~”

Lin Mo: ...

Liu Rushuang: ...

Drive the car and you’re not willing. Don’t drive the car and you feel it’s missing something. What was this? Repressed lust?

The meal was excellent. Both women were happy, Lin Mo’s assets increased by another twenty thousand, and he completed his internship. Truly three joys at once.

That night, Su He sent Liu Rushuang off and personally drove Lin Mo home, telling him that since she had work tomorrow, she wouldn’t drive him back to school. She told him to call her anytime if he needed anything.

Lin Mo naturally didn’t mind. He wasn’t a child. Why would he need someone to escort him?

Back at home, for the first time he felt a sense of idleness. Maybe because he knew he didn’t have to go to work tomorrow.

After midnight, Lin Mo picked up his phone and checked. Today’s items were rather mediocre, leaving him somewhat disappointed.

【dzg-141 Rocket Launcher, three rounds of ammo, you and your cover are equally laughable; ¥6.9】

【"Confinement 2" White Cloud Collector’s Edition, watch it and never wake up: ¥99.8】

【Back Straightener, 21 days to a tall and straight back: ¥4.3】

【Homemade Glutinous Rice Wine, five catties, sweet and delicious; ¥7.92】

Fortunately, after all this time, he had trained himself to quickly recover from disappointment. After all, it wasn’t possible to get good items every single day, right?

In fact, among the four, the one that most caught his interest was the second one—“Confinement 2” White Cloud Collector’s Edition. This was something that probably only existed in White Cloud Auntie’s mouth; no one had ever actually seen the real thing. Naturally, he was curious about its content.

But that final line scared him off. Watch it and never wake up? What if it really killed him?

For the sake of his own life, he chose the back straightener instead. Even though he wasn’t hunchbacked, there wasn’t much else worth buying. Picking the best of the bad lot, at least this thing had some use.

He washed up and went to bed. The night passed without incident.

The next morning, Lin Mo had planned to sleep in, but was woken by urgent knocking on the door.

“Who is it?”

Wearing just a pair of shorts and with messy bed hair, Lin Mo opened the door—only to see a beautiful figure standing there.

“Rushuang the Great?”

Liu Rushuang: ...

It had to be said, Liu Rushuang truly deserved to be called the Greek goddess of beauty. Not only was she stunning, but her style was ever-changing.

Today she appeared as “mature woman” Liu Rushuang—wearing a fiery, sexy, tight-fitting black dress. Her long hair hung loosely down her back, radiating the full charm of a mature woman.

Lin Mo couldn’t help but sigh inwardly: “Awesome beyond words.”

“Oh, so now that you’ve just resigned, you won’t even call me sister or Rushuang-jie anymore? Not even ‘President Liu’? Straight to ‘Rushuang the Great,’ huh?” Liu Rushuang rolled her eyes and said.

Though he was confused why Liu Rushuang had come, Lin Mo still replied: “I don’t work at your company anymore, how could you still control me? Ito… no, Ji Bochang is here!”

A man with no desires was unyielding. He had already broken free of his wage-slave status—why should he fear his former boss? He would live boldly!

Hearing this, Liu Rushuang smiled, her eyes flicking downward: “You seem quite energetic today, not having to work, huh?”

“Of course! My head has never felt so clear and refreshed!” Lin Mo spread his hands proudly.

Liu Rushuang: “Who said I was talking about your head?”

Lin Mo froze. Then, slowly, his gaze shifted downward.

“Holy crap!”
