Gasp! She's a Time Traveler Using Modern Tech to Improve Ancient Life-Chapter 442 - 440: Did a Thief Break In?

Lin Wanwan looked at the visitor and casually said, "Hello, I’m Lin Wanwan."

"Miss Lin, where do you work?" Wang Anni asked with a charming demeanor.

She paid even more attention to her demeanor in front of beautiful women than when she was with men.

Lin Wanwan had already sized her up and, hearing this question, took out the last shop opening invitation and handed it to Wang Anni, saying, "I’m very interested in embroidery and other non-material heritage, so I’ve invested in a shop called Yongtang, which will open mid-month. Miss Wang, if you have time, you’re welcome to come and see it. Hai City is not far from Yongcheng."

Wang Anni took it, opened it, glanced at it, and smiled radiantly, "Great, since it’s the opening of Miss Lin’s new shop, I’ll definitely go and support."

"You’re welcome."

"Has Miss Lin graduated? You look so young."

"I have graduated."

"Amazing, Miss Lin started a business at such a young age. You must have the support of your family, right?"

Lin Wanwan smiled gracefully and said, "I’m just trying it to see if I can do it. What about you, Miss Wang, where are you working?"

Wang Anni brushed back her bangs with a smile, "I just finished graduate school and returned, haven’t started working yet, planning to try my hand at live streaming media."

Lin Wanwan raised her glass and clinked it with her, "The live streaming industry is indeed very popular."

They chatted a bit more and then moved on to discussing clothes and jewelry, soon addressing each other by name under Wang Anni’s suggestion.

Wang Anni immediately noticed the Jade Bracelet on Lin Wanwan’s wrist and remarked with a smile, "This Jade Bracelet is really exquisite, with fine and transparent texture, uniform color, very high-end and elegant. I liked it at first sight. Wanwan, could I appreciate it in detail?"

Lin Wanwan gently touched the Jade Bracelet and, with an apologetic expression, said, "This Jade Bracelet is a keepsake left to me by my grandmother, exceptionally precious to me, and I never let anyone touch it, so I’m sorry."

Wang Anni shrugged charmingly, "Oh, it’s fine, I was being presumptuous, don’t blame me, Wanwan. Is your dress from Chanel? It’s truly beautiful, a pure style like yours really suits wearing white."

"Thank you, I just feel this dress is simple and easy to wear, doesn’t require a specific figure. Your red dress, on the other hand, not just anyone can pull it off; it needs charm and grace to have your vibe."

They exchanged compliments back and forth, then dispersed individually.

From the moment the beautiful lady came with mixed-race beauty Wang Anni to find Lu Shouyue, Lin Wanwan understood they might be attending the birthday banquet with hidden intentions.

But since she wasn’t directly involved, she didn’t need to meddle.

However, it seems today there were many who mistakenly thought she had a relationship with Lu Shouyue. Perhaps she should pay some attention.

Sigh, relationships between men and women are indeed challenging, even in modern times with its openness, there are still many concerns.

Actually, being mutually beneficial friends would be nice.

No matter how good the Lu Family’s background is, they can’t just live off their legacy forever, his antique shop and auction house also need customers. And Lin Wanwan, having the Space-Time Bracelet, is a top-quality customer resource for the antique business.

Though Lin Wanwan isn’t dealing in antiques now, she has plenty of valuable things, making her a distinguished guest at any antique shop or auction house. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦

After the banquet, Lin Wanwan bid farewell to the Lu Family members and politely declined Lu Shouyue’s offer to drive her home, explaining she wanted to check on her place in Hai City.

Lu Shouyue immediately offered to wait for her, regardless of how Lin Wanwan said there was no need to change plans for her, he couldn’t be dissuaded from accompanying her.

In short, since Lu Shouyue brought her from Yongcheng to Hai City, he insisted on taking her back home to Yongcheng.

Unable to refuse any longer, Lin Wanwan agreed.

Thus, Lin Wanwan took a look around her Hai City home, finding everything as she left it the last time, then went downstairs.

On her way down the stairs, she encountered a neighbor lady, who greeted her warmly.

Previously, for her interactions with the Gong family, Lin Wanwan had added the local neighbors on WeChat, so they were acquaintances who nodded in greeting.

"Oh my, little lady from 401, you’re here! Let me tell you, that place of yours is empty and unoccupied, do you want to rent it out? I happen to have a friend who bought a new house and is renovating, temporarily needing a place."

Lin Wanwan slightly squinted her eyes, saying, "No, I’m not renting it out, I occasionally come to live."

"Oh, not renting, alright then, see you later."

"See you."

When arriving back home in Yongcheng, it was nearly ten in the evening, Lin Wanwan got out at the community entrance, not letting Lu Shouyue drive her inside.

With a few steps to her own yard, Lin Wanwan felt a bit uneasy. As she reached the yard and saw the lights coming from the first-floor living room window, she frowned, sensing something amiss.

Lin Wanwan took off her heels and quietly moved into the yard to assess the situation.

She had a hunch this wasn’t related to a thief; no burglar would conspicuously turn on the lights and TV. If there was, Lin Wanwan would admire them.

Peeping through the curtain’s gap under the window, Lin Wanwan’s expression turned cold immediately—it was her uncle and aunt.

Lin Wanwan put her heels back on and, with determined steps, walked to the door; seeing evidence that the fingerprint lock had been tampered with.

As she walked in, Lin Zhantian, leisurely watching TV inside, turned his head at the sound and calmly asked, "Wanwan, why couldn’t I reach your phone?"

Lin Wanwan didn’t answer but asked, "Uncle, how did you get in?"

From the stairs came another voice; it was her aunt, Xie Yuanying, who liked to look at people with a snooty gaze, descending the stairs wearing Lin Wanwan’s slippers.

"Oh, Wanwan, you’re back? Why so late today? We tried calling you but couldn’t get through. Your uncle and I waited at the door for a long time. Thankfully, we ran into an old uncle from the family who had a locksmith’s contact, and that’s how we got in."

Lin Wanwan took off her bag and placed it on the cabinet by the entrance, walked in wearing her heels, and coldly chuckled, "Uncle and aunt have been living in the United States, respecting privacy rights the most. How come you embraced breaking and entering, didn’t you know it’s illegal?"

Xie Yuanying laughed repeatedly, "Hahaha, oh Lin, see, the child is upset with us. Wanwan, you’re all alone now, it’s just us, your uncle and aunt. We specially came from Hai City to visit you."

Lin Wanwan laughed bitterly, "Thank you, but for relatives like you, I still have several families in the Mian City Gong family."
