Chapter 240: Chapter 126 The Sky-high Invitation_3

"Sorry, I’m very satisfied with my life right now!"

Lin Baici refused.

Seeing Lin Baici refuse without hesitation, Kim Myungjin felt a deep sense of disappointment, but she quickly squeezed out a smile, "So we’re still friends, right?"

"Of course!"

Lin Baici nodded.

"My brother said, if you’re confident, you can come to Goryeo to explore the Busan Divine Ruins. Even if you can’t break through, all the profits will be yours!"

When Kim Myungjin said this, she had a little ulterior motive. She hoped that once Lin Baici came to Goryeo, he would stay, and perhaps after living there for a few months, he would come to like the country.

[Go, go, go, hurry up and take leave, book a flight, fly to Goryeo, a sumptuous buffet is laid out in front of you, what are you waiting for?]

[Charge!]

"You’re not afraid that I’ll die in there?"

Lin Baici was speechless.

[So you should bring backup provisions, a backup milk supply, and get several mules and horses!]

The Eater God commented.

"Mules and horses? You mean to put together a team, right?"

Lin Baici felt that Red Medicine could be considered, but Hua Yue Yu, not so much. Even though she was a God Hunter, she was too inexperienced.

"Wait a bit longer, let me enjoy some more beautiful moments of college life."

Lin Baici thought that the Busan Divine Ruins probably wouldn’t be as difficult as the Qin Palace Divine Ruins, because these ruins had never been opened to the public, and it wasn’t the kind where once you went in, you couldn’t come out.

Having talked about the most important things, Kim Myungjin felt much more relaxed and began to make small talk.

Gossip about the First Lady’s academic credentials being forged and losing face, a certain financial company’s funding chain breaking and nearing collapse, and a certain girl group member secretly having an abortion were all bits of gossip ordinary people didn’t have access to.

Kim Myungjin had high emotional intelligence. Once she found a topic that interested Lin Baici, she would delve deeper into it; if he wasn’t interested, she would gloss over it quickly.

After they settled the bill and came out, Kim Myungjin teased, "Oppa, why did you change phones again? Surely you didn’t encounter another bout of rule pollution?"

"Yes, I ran into it last night!"

Talking about it, Lin Baici felt his recent luck had been quite awful. The probability of encountering Taboo things was just too high.

"Ah?"

Kim Myungjin was stunned. It really happened, "Oppa, your luck..."

"Bad luck stuck to me!"

Lin Baici shrugged his shoulders.

"Wait, Oppa, you went through a Taboo game and you’re still alive and kicking, able to come out to eat with me?"

Kim Myungjin thought Lin Baici was very strong. As far as she knew, after God Hunters purified rule pollution, even if they weren’t injured, they would be mentally exhausted and would need to take a break, enjoying themselves for at least half a month.

Lin Baici took a deep breath and stretched, and a pleasant scent immediately wafted over from Kim Myungjin.

"Oppa, come play in Goryeo during the winter break, okay?"

Kim Myungjin invited earnestly.

"Sure!"

By then, he could tour the Busan Divine Ruins and taste the Divine Grace born in Goryeo to see what was different!

Knowing that Lin Baici had classes in the afternoon, Kim Myungjin didn’t ask him to hang out and went back to her hotel by herself.

In the evening, the two of them had dinner and went to Jinjiang to see the night view.

They played until nine o’clock, and Lin Baici escorted Kim Myungjin back to the hotel.

Seeing that Lin Baici didn’t stay and instead returned to school, Kim Myungjin felt a bit disappointed.

Could it be that my charm isn’t working?

Oppa couldn’t possibly dislike my type, right?

...

Early in the morning, the warm sunlight spilled onto the balcony, heralding another clear day.

Lin Baici woke up early.

Lately he had been too energetic, unable to sleep at night and waking up early during the day, truly a suffering, for he couldn’t even enjoy a lazy morning.

After freshening up, Lin Baici decided to go jogging on the track.

Recently, frisbee seemed to be the trend, and many girls on the grass were playing it, some bolder ones wearing tight fitness pants that outlined their graceful curves.

Lin Baici glanced at them and lost interest immediately; these girls couldn’t compare to Kim Myungjin’s figure.

He had run half a lap when he glanced toward the basketball court and spotted Little Tiger Tooth.

Little Tiger Tooth was holding a basketball, standing at the center circle. Looking towards the hoop, her figure seemed lost and forlorn.

Lin Baici hesitated for a moment, but decided to walk over anyway.

"Haven’t you taken a few days off?"

At the sound of this voice, Little Tiger Tooth turned around. After seeing Lin Baici, she paused and then thanked him, "Thank you for saving me!"

"If you’re feeling down, there’s a good Buddhist scripture video on Bilibili recently that you could listen to!" Lin Baici suggested.

"Mm!"

Little Tiger Tooth nodded.

Having no experience in comforting girls and seeing that Little Tiger Tooth was not in high spirits, Lin Baici decided to leave.

"Handsome guy!"

Little Tiger Tooth suddenly spoke up, "I still want to see you and Feng Qin play basketball!"

"..."

Lin Baici saw the tears in Little Tiger Tooth’s eyes, sighed inwardly, and said, "Give me the ball!"

Little Tiger Tooth probably wanted to see Feng Qin play basketball.

Lin Baici took the basketball passed from Little Tiger Tooth, bounced it a couple of times, then ran towards the hoop, jumped, and slam-dunked.

Thud!

The ball went in.

Lin Baici didn’t opt for a shot since his skills were poor and missing would be embarrassing. Plus, he thought slam-dunking was more passionate and might dispel the gloom lingering in Little Tiger Tooth’s heart.

"Feng Qin likes slam-dunking too."

Little Tiger Tooth pursed her lips and clapped.

In such moments, words were futile, so Lin Baici started dunking.

Thud! Thud! Thud!

After four or five dunks, Lin Baici was feeling it.

The sensation of soaring into the air, looking down upon all beings, the utter dedication in smashing the basketball into the hoop—was simply too thrilling.

That dunk seemed to release all restlessness, unhappiness, and depression. It was as if the dark clouds that draped over his heart were torn apart with that very dunk.

Lin Baici was wholly engrossed, his gaze fixed on the hoop, driven by a single thought, to throw the ball in with the greatest strength, in the most ferocious posture possible.

Thud! Thud! Thud!

Creak! Creak! Creak!

Each of Lin Baici’s dunks made the basketball stand rock violently, emitting creaks as if it could hardly bear the burden.

Gu Qingqiu stood in the distance, filming Lin Baici with her phone.

She had come here the past two days hoping to see Lin Baici dunk again, and today, she finally got her wish.

Utterly satisfying!
