Hitting Up The Big Leagues with a Tea Personality-Chapter 34
Delicately Lovable Upgraded To Level
“Xia Bohe, how did I give birth to a white-eyed wolf like you!”
Accompanied by the original host’s mother’s irrational yelling and near-hysterical scolding, Xia Bohe rubbed her eye which was irritated by the soap bubbles.
At the same time, she heard a sound from the system.
[Task Accomplished. A goddess has descended; “wash one piece of clothing”.]
[Task Reward: 300 Goddess Points.]
[1 skill exchange available.]
[Current total sum of Goddess Points is 900. It is recommended that the host upgrade ‘Endearingly Pitiful’ and ‘Delicately Lovable’. The higher the Glow Level, the larger the target range or the stronger the effect.]
Excited, Xia Bohe rubbed the hospital gown in her hands even more vigorously.
The newly-added target group for Endearingly Pitiful Level 3 was geeks addicted to video games.
As for Delicately Lovable Level 2, other than arousing her family’s desire to protect her, it would also make them empathize with her and feel heartache for her.
These skills were seriously useful.
She struggled internally for a bit but eventually failed to resist the temptation.
After going back and forth between her options, she finally decided, with much difficulty, to upgrade Delicately Lovable to Level 2.
As for Endearingly Pitiful, she planned to not upgrade it at the moment since she would not be running into a geek for the time being.
With that thought in mind, she inwardly notified the system to perform the upgrade and subconsciously wrung the water out of her gown, not even realizing that a few drops had splashed onto her sleeves.
As for Luo Tianlin, who had been standing at the door for a long time, furrowed his brow even deeper while watching this scene.
He watched how she almost wrung the gown in her hands into twists with a listless look in her eyes without even noticing that he had appeared at the door. Her face reflected in the mirror was white as snow, like a piece of rice paper that could be easily torn apart at any time,
She seemed to be in a lot of pain. Her willow-shaped eyebrows were slightly knitted, her teeth were lightly biting her rosy lips, and her reddened eyes were gradually welling with tears, but she seemed to be holding them back.
“Now you’re just going to ignore when your mother is talking, aren’t you!?”
Mrs. Xia’s voice increased another few decibels.
“Ahem.”
Frowning, Luo Tianlin cleared his throat and knocked on the bathroom door.
Xia Bohe had just finished exchanging a skill and was experimenting with its new functions when she was brought back to her senses all of a sudden. With a turn of her head, her gaze met his imposing black orbs, and she could not help but exclaim a little while trying to hide her guilty conscience.
“You, you… have finished work?”
Her cheeks were flushed.
He did not discover her talking to the system, did he?
Her small hands tightened around the gown.
Luo Tianlin’s bottomless gaze instantly moved from her flushed lovely face to the water droplets on her dainty nose and the redness which had not yet faded from her eyes, then finally landed on the hospital gown in her hands.
With a glance, he frowned again.
However, just as he was about to speak, another thunderous shout came from the phone by the sink.
“Bohe, did I just hear a man’s voice!? Where are you? Are you with a man? Have you been doing shameless stuff with indecent men!”
Mrs. Xia’s ugly words immediately made Luo Tianlin wrinkle his brow unexpectedly.
Xia Bohe shuddered and ended the call at once with shaky hands.
“Hey, hey…!”
Mrs. Xia’s wrath was straightaway cut off.
However, Xia Bohe was still embarrassed.
She had put her phone on speaker so that she could wash her clothes more easily.
She squeezed her small hands together nervously, not realizing that her last use of “Delicately Lovable” had not yet reached its time limit, and the newly-upgraded Level 2 version was already taking effect in full power.
She did not say anything, but her silence was even more powerful than any spoken words.
She seemed hesitant to speak, giving the appearance of a fragile, charming lady who was suffering from grievance yet trying to contain herself.
The pain caused by the soap bubbles finally made her eyes glimmer with tears, and the droplets on her eyelashes seemed to be on the verge of falling.
Luo Tianlin glanced down at her, an indescribable ache welling up in his chest.
“You can tell me about it.” 𝗳𝚛𝐞𝘦wℯ𝚋𝓷o𝚟el. 𝐜𝘰𝒎
“Huh?”
“Whatever problems your mother brought to you and whatever difficulties you’re facing, I can settle them for you.”
“Ah…”
A dozen RMB symbols flashed in front of Xia Bohe’s eyes. (TN: RMB, short for Ren Min Bi, is China’s official currency.)
By settling them for her, did he mean that he would give her 80,000 Yuan?
She had not even said anything just now.
She could get 80,000 just like that?
In just a few minutes?
This ‘Delicately Lovable’ was really something!
