Chapter 157: I Want You To Be My Master

  "Old Su... Old Su... Come and see! Quick, come and take a look! The TV is broadcasting news about our Xiao Lin's family! Our Xiao Lin is going to be a big star too..."

  The next morning, Su Lin was still in bed when he was woken up by his mother Liu Aizhen's loud voice.

  Feeling a headache, Su Lin remembered that after returning from the concert yesterday, she washed up and felt extremely sleepy, her head was also dizzy, and she fell asleep as soon as she lay down.

  "Sure enough, just like the time I escaped from the Dragon Tiger Gang's underground base, using too many nurturing points at once would lead to overthinking, a splitting headache... Ah, it seems that exchanging for a skill isn't as easy as I thought!"

  Rubbed his temples, Su Lin knew that this time he had exchanged the "Tian Lai Zhi Yin" skill, which cost 500 nurturing points at once, and it would make his head hurt so much. It seems that these nurturing points are not only hard to earn, but also not safe to use!

  After getting dressed, when Su Lin went out of the room, she found her mother Liu Aizhen and father Su Guorong in the living room, staring intently at the entertainment news on TV.

  "Mom! You're not making breakfast early in the morning, when did you start liking watching these boring gossip news?"

  Su Lin didn't pay attention to the entertainment news report and was about to go to the bathroom to wash up. But she was excitedly pulled back by her mother, Liu Ai Zhen, who pointed at the TV screen and called out: "Little rabbit! Quick, look! You're on TV! See? This is last night's concert, you and Yun Yi are together on stage... Look, this is your duet of 'Beautiful Zhicheng'... Ah, ah, ah... And this is when you sang solo..."

  After his mother's reminder, Su Lin took a closer look and indeed, the entertainment news on TV was reporting about Yunlai Yijiu's concert yesterday.

  "Not just this station, but also other stations' entertainment programs... take a look... Mango TV... Tomato TV... they all are..."

  Su Mu patted Su Lin's shoulder with a hearty laugh. With pride, she said, "You're indeed my child, inheriting the artistic cells from me. Unlike your father, that wooden head, he can only sing those few military songs. Now you've made a name for yourself, who knows, maybe some entertainment company will come and invite you to become a big star..."

  "Alright, Ai Zhen! Being a star is not something people like us can achieve. Besides, haven't you heard how messy the entertainment industry is from TV? Su father was quite calm and said to Su Lin, "Xiao Lin, let's not get involved in that muddy water. Wait for the college entrance exam results to come out and attend university peacefully. What's so good about being a star? You have to wear sunglasses every time you go out."

  "What's wrong with being a star? Su Guorong, do you know how much money a star can make from one concert? Do you know how much money a star can make from singing one song and releasing an album? I'm afraid it's more than what you can earn driving for your whole life. Being a star is so great! Why not let our Xiaolin become a star?"

  Su Mu's mind is now filled with stars, dreaming of stardom for her son Su Lin. However, Su Lin soon broke the illusion, smiling and telling his mother: "Mom! Being a star isn't that easy. You need to be discovered by an entertainment or record company, and there are many obstacles in between! This time I just rode on Yun Yiyi's coattails, look at how the reports are all about me being Yun Yiyi's scandal, just to attract attention..."

  "But I think those so-called stars, some of them can't even sing as well as you, why can they become stars and not us?"

  Liu Aizhen was not convinced. From last night, her son Su Lin sang a song that could be compared to those stars, and it was much better. Didn't everyone look so excited?

  "Mom! We just don't have the fate to be a star! Besides, being a star isn't all that great. Are you willing for me, your son, to not dare go out without wearing sunglasses and a hat every day, and to be careful with everything I do for fear of being photographed by reporters?"

  Although Su Lin doesn't usually pay attention to entertainment news, she also knows that becoming a star isn't that easy. With so many talent shows every year, only a few people become famous, and who knows how much darkness is hidden behind the scenes? To go from being unknown to famous, who knows how many unwritten rules you have to follow and how much hard work you have to put in?!

  Su Lincai did not experience going to the entertainment circle to develop. Although he exchanged the Tianlai Zhiyin skill, he absolutely has the strength to become an international first-line singer, but becoming a star means hiding from those entertainment reporters and paparazzi all day, which is not the life Su Lin wants!

  But, if you can enter the entertainment circle, there are actually many benefits. For example, when you're idle and flirting with some female celebrities, those stars who seem high and mighty to ordinary people will be quite flavorful when they're ambiguous.

  Su Lin recalled the two kisses with Yun Yiyi yesterday, especially the last one where he forcefully kissed Yun Yiyi, which was really too stimulating and had a great feeling. If it could go further, Su Lin thought of Yun Yiyi's ethereal appearance on stage, which made his heart itch again.

  "I also don't know if I'll have another chance to meet Yún Yīyī in the future, so I'm making up for this regret now! Hehe..."

  She puckered her lips and Su Lin thought with a sly smile again.

  Although Yun Yiyi is now a big star all over the mainland, Hong Kong and Taiwan, she is still a junior at Tsinghua University in Beijing. Su Lin thought that maybe if he could get into Tsinghua University, there might be a chance for him to meet Yun Yiyi by fate.

  "I wonder if Yiyang will still remember to give me that kiss when I see her next time."

  In the entertainment industry, Su Lin naturally thought that these stars were familiar with such ambiguous tricks. Don't look at how shy and angry Yun Yiyi was after being kissed by herself yesterday, maybe she had kissed many male stars before!

  Su Lin thought so in her heart, but then recalled Yun Yiyi's pure and elegant appearance on stage, untainted by a single speck of dust, like a celestial being fallen to the mortal world, already the most noble and pure.

  A star like Yún Yīyī shouldn't be affected by unwritten rules, right?

  For some reason, Su Lin's heart was tangled up, and he had a lingering concern for Yun Yiyi.

  After having breakfast, Su Lin suddenly found that her days were so empty. After the college entrance examination. The original full review class life, now all of a sudden became their own free time to dispose of.

  Dad and mom have also found a unit to go to work, after eating they went to work. Su Lin is alone at home, feeling bored, the phone at home suddenly rang.

  "Hey, uh... I'm Su Lin, Captain Yan! That thing... okay! Aunt Ping already told me about it yesterday. Are you really only leaving me 500,000? Isn't that a bit too little? Can't you give me a bit more? Ah? No room for negotiation?"

  The phone call was made by Yan Longyong of the Criminal Police Brigade. The current Yan Longyong is now the acting director of the Public Security Bureau in Jian'an City. However, the largest reward authority of their public security bureau plus the reward amount from the municipal government side adds up to a total of 500,000 yuan.

  Five or six hundred thousand, suddenly became only fifty thousand left, who would not be unhappy. Thinking of this, Su Lin was unhappy, but the other party was the Public Security Bureau, it was the people's government, what could he do?

  Rushing to the Public Security Bureau, busy for a whole morning, signing several documents and declarations, Su Lin's bank card was left with only 500,000 yuan.

  Through conversation with Yan Longyong, Su Lin knew that when he transferred this sum of money from abroad at the time, the bank only followed convention and reported assets over 1 million yuan to the Public Security Bureau for filing. However, later on, Yan Hu, the second-in-command of the Dragon and Tiger Society, and several small leaders mentioned during their confession that there was an anonymous account with over $1 million in the ledger.

  Yan Longyong Shun Tengmogua, when checking the large-amount fund flow record submitted by the bank, discovered that Su Lin's account had mysteriously increased by 6 million yuan. It was then realized that Su Lin had transferred this money away, and his account was subsequently frozen.

  "I knew at that time I should have transferred all the money to Teacher Lin's mother's bank card. Auntie's card isn't from Jian'an City, so it definitely wouldn't be registered here."

  It dawned on Su Lin how he had fallen into the trap and he said with some regret.

  Although Su Lin now has the ability to reverse time, after yesterday's consumption of 500 cultivation points, he only has less than 3,000 cultivation points left. Each cultivation point can only reverse one minute, and it is unlikely that he will be able to go back several days ago.

  So Su Lin had no choice but to accept her fate. After all, she now has more skills, and it shouldn't be hard to make money, right? The key is to find a way to earn money legally and reasonably, so that the money can be earned under the sun. No matter how the Public Security Bureau investigates, my source of income is clean and transparent, I can take it home, give it to my parents, and they can spend it as they like.

  Looking at the 500,000 yuan in his bank account, it was just enough to buy a decent house in Jian'an City. Anyway, the origin of this money was the reward given by the government and the Public Security Bureau, so Su Lin decided to return this money to his parents. His family had less than 100,000 yuan in savings, so when he lost his job this time, his parents would be worried.

  With this $500,000 as a family foundation, Su Lin believes that his parents will no longer have so much pressure when they work. However, in the future, Su Lin smiled and said that he would definitely make more money, which is a trivial matter for him.

  "Captain Yan, it's nothing now, I'll just go back first."

  All the formalities have been completed, Su Lin took the bank card with only 500,000 yuan left and was about to leave the Public Security Bureau, but unexpectedly, a voice came from the gate of the Public Security Bureau.

  "Has Su Lin arrived? Su Lin...Su Lin...where are you? I want to be your apprentice..."

  Su Lin looked towards the entrance of the Public Security Bureau's service hall and saw that it was Han Xiaoxiao, the undercover policewoman who had disguised herself as a young girl and infiltrated the Longhu Gang, whom he had met last time. Su Lin remembered that Han Xiaoxiao's leg had been shot, and he had even helped her bandage and treat the wound. He didn't expect that in just a few days, she would be able to move around so freely again.

  However, upon closer inspection, Su Lin was still able to notice that Han Xiao's legs were still limping, clearly not fully recovered.

  "Sulin! Luckily you made it in time, you haven't left yet..."

  Han Xixi rushed to Su Lin's front, panting, she had just finished talking on the phone with the criminal police team and learned that Su Lin would come to the Public Security Bureau this morning to handle some formalities, so she immediately rushed over from home. Originally, she was supposed to rest at home for a month after taking sick leave, but as soon as she heard that Su Lin had arrived at the Public Security Bureau, she threw away her crutches and hurried over in a flurry.

  "I said... my detective sister, your leg injury hasn't healed yet, and you're rushing to work like this? You're really dedicated. What do you want from me? Want me to be your mentor? What kind of mentor?"

  Ever since Su Lin found out that Han Xiao was disguising herself as a young girl to infiltrate the Dragon and Tiger Gang, her attitude towards Han Xiao had improved. Plus, Han Xiao's outfit today was quite normal, with a neutral and wild look, pouting her mouth, looking like a stubborn donkey, still quite cute.
