Evolutionary Superstar

Chapter 25: High Productivity, Mu Qingxue’s Sudden Return

Lin Haoren had single-mindedly pursued Expert-level Storywriting Skill, and just when his efforts paid off, the system bestowed him with triple happiness.

Expert-Level Storywriting Skill!

+1 Intelligence!

Quest feature unlocked!

An indescribable feeling welled up inside him.

He wasn’t sure how to express this feeling, but if he were to describe it in one word... Awesome!

Lin Haoren couldn’t help but feel eager to receive his first quest.

Since the system described the quest rewards as tantalizing, they must be good stuff. In fact, any bit of gain was most welcomed.

Having lived in poverty his entire life, he was grateful for everything.

That said, he did not know how to trigger his first quest. The system was vague and didn’t explain clearly. As such, he could only understand the new feature slowly.

Today, he had written a total of 60,000 words in 6 hours, finally bringing his old novel to a close.

Such productivity was unreal, even by his standards.

After all, his terrifying writing speed wasn’t something that could be maintained for hours without declining. Ordinary humans couldn’t achieve it.

Their ideas weren’t endless, and their energy was limited as well. Such a feat was exhausting and difficult for most.

Lin Haoren reckoned he might be the only one who could output such high productivity on a regular basis. Moreover, this productivity would only be more skewed in the future.

After uploading the final 30 Chapters to Origin Literature, he closed his laptop and checked the time.

4:33 pm

A bit early for dinner, but just right to head out for some grocery shopping.

With Advanced-Level Cooking Skill, he had new ideas for dinner. Just as he headed out, he sent a message to his pretty neighbor, checking to see if she was coming over for dinner.

Within moments, Su Xiaoran replied, expressing her excitement and eagerness to eat his cooking again.

Lin nodded.

After putting on his mask and sunglasses, he headed out, leaving Hongxing Apartment. A few minutes later, a black MPV pulled into the residential community.

Moments later, Su Xiaoran heard her doorbell ringing.

She excitedly went to answer, thinking Lin Haoren had come over to invite her to go grocery shopping together.

"Brother Lin, did you—Ah? Senior Mu? Why are you here?" Su Xiaoran hurriedly asked, her bewilderment and disappointment evident.

Mu Qingxue’s lips fiercely twitched.

"It seems you don’t like this sister very much. I finally have some free time off set and came all this way to see you, yet you are not even happy to see me," Mu Qingxue said, acting hurt.

"Ah? How can that be, Senior Mu? Please come in! I definitely wasn’t looking forward to seeing Brother Lin or disappointed in your sudden visit, Senior Mu," Su Xiaoran said with an ingratiating smile.

However, Mu Qingxue secretly sneered.

This little brat wears her heart on a sleeve; her little thoughts are so obvious. She simply couldn’t hide anything.

"Is that so? Then, let’s go out for dinner later. I found a nice Western restaurant we can try. I’m paying."

"Ah?! This..." Su Xiaoran felt conflicted and asked timidly, "Can we not go, Senior Mu?"

Mu Qingxue’s face fell.

"Sigh! I knew it, you don’t want this sister anymore. Boohoo, you won’t even call me Sister Mu, unlike your Brother Lin. So affectionate," Mu Qingxue complained.

Su Xiaoran was at a loss and quickly said, "Sister Mu."

"Mm." Mu Qingxue nodded with satisfaction and said, "Alright, go and get ready. We’ll head out to eat soon. Xiao Lu is still waiting downstairs."

Su Xiaoran opened her mouth, but no words came out.

She didn’t even agree! When did she say she was going? Did she even have a choice? This is too much bullying.

This Sister Mu, her face changes too quickly.

"Us sisters must have a good talk tonight," Mu Qingxue asserted before softening her tone, asking curiously, "I wonder what magic this Brother Lin has cast over you?"

"I’ve helped you so much, yet you are favoring a man you barely know over me. This really breaks my heart," she added with exaggeration.

Su Xiaoran blinked for a moment before smiling playfully.

"Sister Mu, do you have a cat that can perform backflips and Tai Chi? Can you cook better food than restaurant chefs? Can you talk nicely without ever throwing a temper? I’m sorry, Sister Mu, you really can’t compare to Brother Lin..."

Mu Qingxue was stunned for a while, then her gaze gleamed wickedly.

"Damn brat, dare to talk back to your sister like this? Watch how I punish you!"

Mu Qingxue suddenly pounced on the startled Su Xiaoran, pinning her down on the sofa and tickling her until she laughed to tears.

"Ahh, Sister Mu! You’re a big bully! Civil people speak with their mouths! How can you resort to violence? Hahaha... stop! Hahahaha..."

...

Lin Haoren had no idea what had transpired in Su Xiaoran’s apartment.

He was happily shopping when his phone buzzed.

[RanRanCat: Boohoo, I’m sorry, Brother Lin. I can’t come over for dinner anymore. Sister Mu has kidnapped me (cry)(cry)(cry)]

[Chasing Dawn: It’s okay. You should spend more time with Sister Mu. She is, after all, an A-list celebrity with plenty of experience. Moreover, she is starring as the Devil Empress Mo Qing in the drama. It isn’t easy for her to find time to spend with you outside of the set.]

[Chasing Dawn: Anyway, we live next door. You can come over to mooch a meal anytime.]

[RanRanCat: I know, but... Ah, I’m so torn... I have to return to the set to film a lot of scenes tomorrow. I don’t know when I’ll be free to go home again. T_T]

[Chasing Dawn: What time are you heading back to Xinghai Film City tomorrow?]

[RanRanCat: I’m not sure, probably around 9 in the morning (cry)(cry)(cry)]

[Chasing Dawn: Come over for breakfast tomorrow. I’ll also cook you some extra food to take with you and eat for lunch later when you arrive in Xinghai Film City.]

[RanRanCat: Ooh~! Thank you, Brother Lin! You are so good to me! (happy)(happy)(happy)]

Lin Haoren chatted with Su Xiaoren for a bit.

Seeing her exaggerated emotions and attachment amused him. This little glutton was so easy to please.

He decided to make a detour to buy stainless steel insulated lunch boxes and thermal containers to help preserve heat and keep Su Xiaoran’s lunch warm.
