Metropolis: It’s a showdown, I am the richest man in the world

"Lin Yuan, after you finish eating, come shopping with me."

"good."

Lin Yuan originally thought that Su Qingqing was just inviting him to a meal, but he did not expect that Su Qingqing would offer to accompany her shopping. This made him very surprised and excited, and he was looking forward to shopping for a while.

Does this count as a date? Will my senior sister be interested in me too?

No, no, I must be overthinking, how could my senior sister be interested in me.

It must be because I just helped her get rid of her pursuer, so she feels that having someone to accompany her shopping will be safer than shopping alone...

Lin Yuan went through countless possibilities in his mind.

"You agreed to go shopping with me so easily. Are you afraid that I will sell it to you?"

"How could senior sister sell me? Even if I were sold, I might still help you count the money."

"Hahahaha, Lin Yuan, you are so interesting. You are completely different from before."

"Well, I still like myself better now."

"Well~ You are indeed better now, but you were not bad before."

"Senior, you praise me too much."

"Okay, eat quickly."

"Um."

Then the two of them finished their meal, paid and left the restaurant. Lin Yuan drove the car to the entrance of the restaurant. Su Qingqing looked at the Lamborghini Poison in front of her and confirmed her suspicion.

It really belongs to Lin Yuan.

Lin Yuan got out of the car, walked to the passenger seat, and opened the door for Su Qingqing.

"Senior, please show me your face."

Su Qingqing deliberately pretended not to know that the car belonged to Lin Yuan and asked.

"Hmm, does this Lamborghini belong to you?"

"Um……"

In front of other people, Lin Yuan could proudly say that he owned a Lamborghini Poison, but in front of Su Qingqing, he seemed a little afraid to say it.

After all, he bought it in the system mall and didn't spend a lot of money.

"Hey, I've already gotten in the car, why are you still standing there?" Su Qingqing asked when she saw Lin Yuan in a daze.

"Oh, I'm sorry, senior sister, I'll be up right away."

Then Lin Yuan got into the driver's seat and took Su Qingqing to Wansheng Shopping Center. After parking the car, Su Qingqing and Lin Yuan went upstairs.

"Senior, is there anything you want to buy?"

"I don't really want to buy anything. I heard that there is a calligraphy activity held here today, so I wanted to come over and take a look."

"Calligraphy activity? I remember that you like writing very much, senior. Do you want to participate?"

"Then will you join me?"

"Of course I will."

"Well, since you said so, don't regret it. Let's go, right over there."

It turns out that Senior Sister Qingqing wanted to invite me to participate in calligraphy activities. Sure enough, I was overthinking it.

But I don’t know calligraphy at all! What should I do? I can’t lose face.

But I remember that I seemed to have a designated skill experience card that was useless, which could be exchanged for calligraphy skills.

"System, I want to use the designated skill experience card."

[Okay, what skills does the host need? 】

"Calligraphy skills."

[It has been redeemed for you. Please note that the designated skill card can be maintained for three days. After three days, the redeemed skill will disappear automatically. 】

Ah~ I only have three days, but it’s enough.

After redeeming their skills, Lin Yuan and Su Qingqing came to the event venue to participate in the calligraphy competition. There were people present who looked very professional, and there were also some young couples who joined in the fun and signed up. They didn't know what their abilities were.

"Lin Yuan, registration is over, let's go."

"good."

In this way, Lin Yuan and Su Qingqing entered the competition scene together.

"Qingqing, you also come to participate in the calligraphy activity!"

A man came over after seeing Su Qingqing.

"Zhang Runcheng? Are you coming to participate in the calligraphy activity too?"

"Yeah, do you want to form a team together?"

"Sorry, I already have a teammate."

Zhang Runcheng looked around, then fixed his gaze on Lin Yuan with a look of disdain.

"Who are you?"

"Lin Yuan."

"It doesn't look like much, do you know calligraphy? Do you know how to hold a brush?"

"I know a little bit, I'm better than I am, I'm better than I am, I'm more than good enough to compare with you."

Su Qingqing burst out laughing when she heard Lin Yuan's words, and then joked.

"Lin Yuan, you are quite good at using lyrics, not bad."

"Senior, aren't you promoting me? Let's get on stage quickly."

Zhang Runcheng stopped Lin Yuan and then said.

"Wait! Since you are so confident, how about we compete?"

"Okay, I'm happy to accompany you, but how can I compare?"

"It's just whoever ranks higher than the other two, the loser will kneel down to the winner and say that his handwriting is worse than a pig's."

"Tsk, what if it's really worse than a pig? I remember there was a pig abroad who could also draw."

"That's because you are not as good as a pig, I will definitely win!"

Zhang Runcheng was very confident and felt that he would definitely beat Lin Yuan. After all, he had been learning calligraphy since he was a child. The older generation in his family were all calligraphy masters, so he was influenced to think that he would also be a calligraphy master in the future.

In this way, several people walked onto the stage together, and the etiquette staff handed out questions. Everyone got different questions.

Lin Yuan looked at the pen, ink, paper and inkstone in front of him, and with a smile, he picked up the pen and put ink on the paper.

When he starts writing, he is hidden but not exposed; when he writes, he is impartial; when he stops writing, he is very free and unrestrained.

The other contestants also finished writing one by one and stopped writing.

The etiquette staff collected everyone's works, and then the judges made an evaluation and selected the first place.

"Whose is this?! It's simply a masterpiece!" Suddenly one of the judges stood up and said excitedly with the work in his hand.

Everyone is waiting for the judges to tell the content of the work, so that everyone will know whether it is theirs. Because the competition regulations do not allow writing names, no one knows whose work the judges are holding.

Zhang Runcheng was very excited and felt that his work was in the hands of the judges. As soon as he stood up, he was interrupted by the judges' words.

"Who wrote the content of this "Queju"?"

Hearing the judges say "Quequa", Lin Yuan raised his hand, attracting the attention of Zhang Rincheng, Su Qingqing and everyone present.

"be mine."

"You are so young, I don't know what to call you?"

"Lin Yuan."

"Mr. Lin, have you studied calligraphy since you were a child?"

"Not really, I just took a calligraphy class in school."

"What?!"

Lin Yuan's words surprised the judges. He didn't expect that he could write such words just by taking a calligraphy class in school.

talent! The person in front of me has absolute talent!

"Congratulations, you won first place."

"ah?"

Lin Yuan didn't expect that he just came with Su Qingqing and got first place. The calligraphy skills exchanged with the system were really not easy.

"The prize for first place is a juicer. You can register the information in the background later and we will mail it to your home."

"Okay, thank you. Can I get my work back?"

"Of course, we won't take it by force."

The judges gave him the work written by Lin Yuan, and Lin Yuan returned to Su Qingqing.

"I can't tell. When did your calligraphy become so good?"

"I have practiced regularly."

"It's so cool! It seems like this event is at the right time. You even got a juicer!"

"Hahahaha, thanks to senior sister."

While the two were chatting, Zhang Rencheng expressed doubts about the judges' scores.

"Impossible! It's absolutely shady. How can he be number one?"

"This contestant, please calm down. There is no shady story in our competition. If you don't believe me, you can take a look at his work for yourself, and then we will tell you whether there is any shady story."

Just like that, the judges took Lin Yuan's work back and showed it to Zhang Runcheng. Zhang Runcheng only glanced at it and then couldn't sit still. He grabbed Lin Yuan's work and observed it carefully.

"Impossible, how could he write such words with only a little calligraphy!"

"I already said it's better to be better than better than worse. Shouldn't you keep your promise?"

"I...a man can bend and stretch. If I lose, I lose."

Zhang Runcheng was about to kneel down when he was blocked by Lin Yuan's feet.

"With so many people watching, do you want to be famous or do I want to be famous? There is no need to kneel down. As for words, you don't have to say that you are worse than a pig. Just apologize to me."

"I...just wait for me. I can't compare to you in calligraphy. Sooner or later, there will be something that can compare to you."

"Is that what I wanted to hear?"

Lin Yuan moved his feet back, and Zhang Runcheng knelt on the ground.

"Lin Yuan you!"

Zhang Runcheng realized that he was being unreasonable and could only apologize silently.

"sorry."

Zhang Runcheng apologized and ran away quickly.

Then Lin Yuan and Su Qingqing were talking about what had just happened, and an old man came over and asked.

"Hello, can you sell this work to me? I want to take it home and copy it. You can ask for any price, I will accept any amount."

"This... my work has no value and is not worth your money."

"You underestimate yourself too much. Your handwriting completely imitates Yan Zhenqing. It's not perfect at all, so it's worth my high price."

"No need really. If you like it, I'll give it to you. Just treat it as a friend."

"How can this be done! You still have to pay when you need to."

"It's really not necessary. If you are trying to shirk the money, my work may end up in the trash."

"How can that be possible! Such fine words must not be thrown into the trash can!"

"Here you go."

Lin Yuan handed the work he wrote to the old man. The old man stared at Lin Yuan's work and couldn't recover for a long time. He didn't even notice that Lin Yuan and Su Qingqing had left.

"Young man, thank you for giving me your work."

After the old man said this, he realized that Lin Yuan had already left.

"This young man is really different. He is not greedy for money. It's really rare. It's a pity that I couldn't ask for his contact information. I hope we can communicate with each other about our calligraphy skills in the future."

After Lin Yuan and Su Qingqing filled out the information in the backstage, they went to other floors to continue shopping.
