What? All the female protagonists have systems, but I don't?

Chapter 49 Dating Me

I walked out of Tengyuan Building.

Gu Qingyi looked at Lin Yuan and suddenly asked.

"You just said that Chen Xingyu wet his pants last night, what happened?"

Humans are always bound to be curious.

“Last night at the Youth Bar, Long Haochen used Chen Xingyu to kidnap Chu Haojie and then lure me out. After that, Long Haochen planned to make a move against Chen Xingyu, but before he could do so, he was so scared that he wet himself and then passed out.”

Lin Yuan recounted what had happened the previous night, and he couldn't help but laugh whenever he thought about it.

It's hilarious that a young man in his early twenties was so frightened by someone raising their hand that he wet himself and fainted.

Lin Yuan even considered publishing this incident in the newspaper and distributing it to everyone in Beicheng so that everyone would know about Chen Xingyu's embarrassing moment.

Gu Qingyi, however, did not laugh after listening to Lin Yuan's story; instead, she frowned deeply.

"Is everything you said true?"

Gu Qingyi asked.

"Would I lie to you about something like this?"

Gu Qingyi fell silent. She thought back to last night when she used her mind-reading skill card to hear Long Haochen's thoughts. That guy did mention cooperating with Chen Xingyu to deal with Lin Yuan.

"So are you okay?"

Gu Qingyi looked at Lin Yuan and asked with concern.

"What could possibly happen to me? He's just Long Haochen; he can't do anything to me."

"Really? I don't know who it was before, but they acted like mice in front of a cat whenever they saw Long Haochen."

Seeing Lin Yuan looking somewhat smug, Gu Qingyi suddenly spoke up.

"The past is the past, and the present is the present. If you keep using the past as the present, why don't you compare the time when you were born with the present?"

Lin Yuan immediately quoted a classic line, and it was a quick fix.

"..."

Gu Qingyi was speechless. What kind of nonsense was this guy spouting?

"Alright, I'll need your help with the rest. Once this is over, we can go on a date."

Gu Qingyi smiled.

She felt bad that Lin Yuan had helped her for nothing, and she wanted to reward him. After thinking about it, she remembered that he used to always want to go on dates with her.

Then let's grant his request this time.

Unexpectedly, after hearing Gu Qingyi say such words, Lin Yuan showed a look of horror, and then said righteously.

"I helped you because we're friends, and there were no ulterior motives involved. Are you looking down on me by saying that? Forget about the date, and don't bring it up again."

Gu Qingyi imagined the various expressions Lin Yuan would have after she mentioned the date.

Surprise, delight, excitement, ecstatic laughter... but I never expected this kind of reaction.

What does he mean? Does he despise himself that much now?

"Lin Yuan, what do you mean? I said I wanted to go on a date with you, and you didn't want to?"

"I……"

Lin Yuan was speechless for a moment. How should he answer this?

"Of course I'd like to, but the current situation isn't suitable for making such a request. It would make it seem like I'm only helping you so I can go on a date with you, which isn't appropriate. Let's do it another day, Mr. Gu. I'll definitely do it next time."

Lin Yuan said with a smile.

[The system has issued a task: get Lin Yuan to accept your date invitation and successfully complete the date.]

[Rewards for completing the task: One Mind Reading Skill Card and One Object Force Binding Skill Card.]

The system's voice rang in Gu Qingyi's mind, and her eyes lit up slightly.

The Mind Reading Skill Card – she's personally experienced this skill card, and its effects are truly remarkable. Once you possess this skill card, your innermost thoughts will be completely revealed in her presence.

It is a very useful method for gathering intelligence.

As the president of Tengyuan Group, Gu Qingyi understood the importance of intelligence all too well, so in her view, obtaining a mind-reading skill card was a win.

Now, she absolutely had to get Lin Yuan to agree to a date with her, no matter what.

"Lin Yuan, this matter is decided. I'm informing you now, and you have no right to refuse."

Gu Qingyi said directly and forcefully.

"Your aunt and uncle probably don't know we're dating yet. I'll go visit them tonight. Or, can I go back with you now and buy some gifts on the way?"

"stop!"

Lin Yuan immediately called out.

He was truly afraid of this woman; she would come to his house at the drop of a hat, and how could he refuse her?

"I understand. It's just a date, right? I agree."

Lin Yuan spoke very reluctantly.

"What kind of attitude is this? Is going on a date with me really that bad for you?"

Seeing Lin Yuan's attitude, Gu Qingyi was also a little unhappy. You were the one who fawned over her for three years and longed to go on a date with her. Now that she had brought it up first, you were not happy about it?

"Don't be wronged, don't be wronged."

Lin Yuan spoke.

"Lin Yuan! Don't go too far!"

Gu Qingyi was furious with Lin Yuan. She kicked him angrily, then turned around and went back to the company, ignoring him completely.

Anyway, now that the date is settled, the system's task is half completed. I'll contact Lin Yuan when I have time and finish the task.

"Dad, you made my sister angry."

Xiao Bao wrapped his arms around Lin Yuan's neck, blinking his bright eyes as he looked at Lin Yuan and said...

"Yes, so what should we do?"

Lin Yuan looked at Xiao Bao and asked.

"Hmm... Daddy can hug my sister and kiss her on the cheek. That's what Grandpa does every time he makes Grandma angry, and then Grandma stops being angry."

Xiao Bao racked his brains and gave his advice very seriously.

"Uh... what kind of nonsense is this?"

Lin Yuan was speechless. His parents were really something. Couldn't they flirt in private? Why did they do it in front of Xiao Bao? They were setting a bad example for Xiao Bao. He would have to give Old Lin a good talking to when they got back.

Lin Yuan thought to himself.

He quickly got into the car and drove home.

Gu Qingyi returned to Tengyuan Building and saw Chen Xingyu still waiting at her office door. She frowned; she didn't want to see him right now.

"Chen Xingyu, didn't I say you were fired? Why aren't you leaving yet?"

"You have no right to fire me."

Chen Xingyu said directly.

"What a joke! I'm the company president. I'm not qualified, but do you? Call security and get this guy out of here."

"Yes, Mr. Gu."

"Oh, and could you also prepare a date schedule for me?"

"what?"

The secretary was stunned. A date schedule? What the heck?

"Um, Mr. Gu, is the date schedule... just for you and Young Master Lin?"
