Chapter 48: 045: Annual Trending List!_1
Lu Ye was twenty-six years old this year.
The women he most often came into contact with were Grandma Lu and his aunt Bai Lu, as well as Lu Da, the lady-killer Lu Lingli.

It was his first time touching a girl’s hand.
Thump, thump, thump.
His heart started to beat uncontrollably.
His cheeks were even redder and hotter.
Lu Ye tried hard to calm himself down, but the hand holding the wrench was shaking uncontrollably.
If he kept shaking like this, Lu Ye even started to wonder if he had Parkinson’s.
Looking at Lin Wu, she still had that light and breezy demeanor, as if nothing had happened, her voice even mild, “No worries, why fuss over a small gesture in the jianghu?”
In fact.
Miss Lin’s palm was coated in a layer of cold sweat.
Phew!
Stay calm, stay calm.
After all, she had been through big events before.
Hearing this, Lu Ye breathed a sigh of relief.
Good.
He had not been mistaken for a libertine.
But his heart rate didn’t slow down at all.
Xue Jinghao was like a big gorilla watching a drama, with the color of gossip in his eyes about to overflow, he leaned into Heizi’s ear and whispered, “Did you see that!”
“See what?” Heizi was curious.
Xue Jinghao continued, “Third Brother’s face is all red!”
Heizi turned his head to look.
One shouldn’t look too carelessly.
This look.
Tsk.
It wasn’t just his face that was red; even his neck was red, all the way down to the depths of his shirt.
Xue Jinghao went on gossiping, “Didn’t expect Third Brother to be such a romantic, blushing like that from a touch of the hand! If I’m not mistaken, he must still be a virgin.”
In the end, he revealed a sleazy smile.
Hearing this, Heizi’s eyes widened.
Having been by Lu Ye’s side for three years, he knew Lu Ye was a man of integrity, but he had no idea Lu Ye was this sentimental.
Which rich person around him wasn’t surrounded by women?
Living a life of luxury and pleasure.
Mistress after mistress?
Yet Lu Ye, standing at the pyramid’s apex, had not a single scandal to his name—truly rare!
Heizi asked curiously, “Has the boss never been in a relationship before?”
“Never.”
Heizi was even more shocked!
Mr. K himself.
Had never even been in a relationship.
Who would believe it if you told them?
Lin Wu took a tissue to wipe the sweat from her palm and found a stool to sit down.
Xue Jinghao walked over and said with a smile, “Hello sister, my name is Xue Jinghao, you can call me…”
Before he could finish saying ‘brother,’ Lu Ye, who was changing the tire, interrupted, “Just call him Sixth Xue.”
Xue Jinghao smiled, “Right, right, right, just call me Sixth Xue. And this guy here is Heizi.”
Compared to Xue Jinghao’s sociability, Heizi was a bit more socially anxious, merely nodding at Lin Wu.
Lin Wu lifted the corners of her mouth slightly, “Hello, my name is Lin Wu.”
“Then we’ll call you Sister Lin from now on.”
“That’s fine.”
Xue Jinghao wanted to say more but accidentally met Lu Ye’s gaze and immediately changed his tune, “I just remembered I have a very important thing to do! Heizi, come with me.”
Heizi hadn’t even reacted before Xue Jinghao dragged him out the door.
The two left the repair shop.
Heizi scratched his head, curious, “What important thing do you have to do that’s so urgent?”
“You really have a log for a brain!” Xue Jinghao shook his head helplessly.
The clueless otaku.
No wonder he couldn’t find a girlfriend.
Heizi stared, not understanding the meaning behind Xue Jinghao’s words.
Xue Jinghao then said, “Didn’t you notice that Third Brother’s look at us changed? It’s pretty obvious he despises us for being third wheels!”
Xue Jinghao had an intuition, they’d need to leave the repair shop soon, or Jiang Shaoyun, currently in F Continent, would find himself a companion.
Thinking of this, Xue Jinghao got a fright.
Luckily, he ran away fast.
Hearing this, Heizi finally realized, “You mean the boss likes Sister Lin?”
Xue Jinghao narrowed his eyes, “I feel there’s an eighty percent chance.”
Heizi was very surprised, “No wonder the boss insisted on me investigating Sister Lin.”
Saying he suspected Sister Lin was Dr. M.
Absolutely nonsensical.
With Sister Lin’s age, how could she possibly be Dr. M?
Xue Jinghao continued, “Look how indulgent Third Brother is towards Sister Lin! I’ve known Third Brother for so long, and I never knew he had a nickname ‘Old Iron’!”
Heizi nodded, feeling that Xue Jinghao made a lot of sense.
After Xue Jinghao and Heizi left, the repair shop was left with only Lu Ye and Lin Wu.
Lin Wu sat by the table, propping her chin with one hand, just watching Lu Ye repair the car.
The man was half-squatting there, dressed in a spotless white shirt, the topmost button undone, the collar slightly open, sleeves rolled up to the forearms, revealing a hefty wristwatch.
He wore black trousers, such simple attire, yet it exuded an authoritative aura that made people hesitant to look directly.
Ten minutes later.
Lu Ye finished setting up the backend and stood up, “Done.”
“That was quick?” Lin Wu also stood up.
“Hmm.”
“How much, Old Iron?”
“Thirty-eight.”
Lin Wu took out her phone, “I didn’t bring any cash today; I’ll WeChat you.”
“My phone’s out of battery. How about you add me on WeChat and transfer the money once my phone’s charged?”
“Sure.” Lin Wu slightly nodded her head, “What’s your WeChat ID?”
Lu Ye recited a string of numbers.
Lin Wu found a user, “Is the WeChat name a capital ‘L’?”
“That’s right.”
Lin Wu added him, “I’ll transfer it to you when I get home.”
“Okay.” Lu Ye gave a slight nod.
With that, Lin Wu pushed her bike and left.
Xue Jinghao and Heizi were nearby and saw Lin Wu pushing her bike away. Only then did they approach the repair shop.
“Third Brother.”
Xue Jinghao’s sly expression alone indicated he wasn’t harboring any good secrets.
Lu Ye looked up at him and said just one word, “Spill.”
Xue Jinghao went on, “Third Brother, do you like Sister Lin?”
Like? His feelings for the child were like those of a brother for his sister.
Definitely not liking.
Just mere admiration.
Lu Ye slightly raised an eyebrow, “I believe in non-marriage.”
Xue Jinghao squinted his eyes.
Lu Ye turned his gaze to Heizi, “How’s the investigation on W going?”
Heizi said, “Still hasn’t come online.”
Upon hearing this, Xue Jinghao’s attention was immediately captured, “Hasn’t come online? If I remember correctly, Ghost Path already made it to the annual List of Influencers, right?”
The total number of downloads for Ghost Path across the net has already hit an astonishing one billion!
Heizi continued, “The Huaxia Game Association awarded W two annual best awards, but no one has claimed them so far.”
Lu Ye narrowed his eyes slightly.
His curiosity about this W, whom he had never met, was growing.
As Heizi spoke, he seemed to remember something and looked up at Lu Ye, “By the way, Third Brother, I found through tracking W’s account that he’s also in Qing City.”
“Are you sure?” Lu Ye asked.
“Yeah.” Heizi nodded, “At least before the last log-in he was in Qing City.”
Xue Jinghao’s eyes widened, “Damn! So many significant figures are in Qing City!”
First Dr. M! Now the gaming genius W.
What magic does Qing City hold?
Lu Ye continued, “Then search! Conduct a carpet search in Qing City for people between 30-50 years old, regardless of gender. But focus on homebodies.”
