Chapter 79: Chapter 79: Does Lin Like Saucy Things?

Translator: 549690339

A question mark slowly appeared on Lincoln’s forehead.

Why are you looking at me? She’s not my wife, she’s that fellow student’s wife.

Didn’t you see his excited look, like his wife just had a cesarean section?

Lincoln slowly turned his gaze back to the mobile phone in his hand, where the screen showed a nearly nude woman with a proud figure and eye-catching assets.

Little Princess Camille Victoria followed Lincoln’s gaze and saw the screen on the phone. Startled, she quickly averted her gaze, feeling her ears start to heat up.

Seeing the soon-to-be-steaming princess, Lincoln handed the phone back to

Old Zhang, “Here, here, your wife, take it.”

Old Zhang, who had just displayed thick-skinned confidence in front of everyone, now became restrained in front of Princess Camille Victoria.

As soon as he took the phone, he hurriedly pressed the screen to exit the game, as if he wanted to shut down the phone immediately.

“Student Zhu, you’re here,” Lincoln decided to act like nothing had happened.

“Mm.” Princess Camille had her head down, her voice as soft as a mosquito’s buzz.

Lincoln glanced around, noticing that most of his classmates had arrived during their card-drawing session.

Originally, Lincoln was the center of attention, but everyone had been waiting for a chance to join in.

Now that the princess had joined him, she attracted everyone’s attention even more.

After some thought, he decided to board the bus first to escape the awkward scene.

Camille followed him without a word, and they both boarded the bus together.

They came to the middle of the thirty-seven-seater bus; Lincoln gave Camille Victoria the seat by the window, and they both sat down.

However, after sitting down, Lincoln didn’t know what to say, and the atmosphere became awkward again.

After a moment of silence, Camille was the first to speak quietly, “Lin, do you like those kinds of games too?”

“No, not at all!” Lincoln naturally denied it, “That’s Old Zhang’s phone. He just asked me to help him draw cards. I was considering our friendship, and I even took out my own money to help him get a wife!”

Although the illustrations and animations did indeed look appealing…

“Actually, it’s okay.” The princess’s voice was as low as a whisper, “I didn’t think it was bad, really. I know it’s normal for boys to like playing those kinds of games. I just wasn’t prepared, so I was startled.”

Little Princess Camille Victoria felt it necessary to explain to Lincoln that she wasn’t some kind of moral guardian who shunned earthly desires or thought that those who liked playing sensual games were perverts with moral issues.

So, it was okay if Lincoln liked to play sensual games.

She genuinely thought it was normal. Didn’t everyone have their own private hobbies?

It’s just that her upbringing and educational environment prevented her from being exposed to such things.

Even people who privately cracked dirty jokes would subconsciously mind their language and act like gentlemen in front of Princess Camille Victoria.

No one would read adult magazines or play sensual games in front of her.

That morning, she had eagerly dressed up for the trip to the amusement park with great anticipation.

As soon as she arrived at the meeting point, she saw Lincoln from a distance and couldn’t suppress her excitement, walking towards him quickly.

But as soon as she got close, she heard the sensual dialogue and saw the bold illustration, which was quite a shock.

As if in a reflex, her face turned red, and she couldn’t speak.

“It is indeed a normal thing, but I, really, don’t like playing these kinds of games that much…” Lincoln felt a bit helpless.

And some girls also like sensual games too…

“Oh.” Camille Victoria nodded quietly, clearly not believing him.

She clearly saw that Lincoln was really into the game earlier!

How could he have been so engrossed in the game, not even noticing her approaching if he didn’t like it?

However, if Lincoln liked sensual games, did that mean he liked sensual things too?

As the thought popped into her head, the Little Princess immediately felt her cheeks burning, and dared not look at Lincoln anymore.

Lincoln was a little dejected, thinking, I did that to learn about the mobile game market!

Old Zhang misunderstood me!

Fortunately, at this time, the students began to get on the bus one after another, and the atmosphere inside quickly became lively, diluting the awkwardness between them.

Lincoln rented a thirty-seven-seater bus, which was more than enough to seat 28 students. The bus filled up quickly and started moving.

Century Park covers an area of more than 600,000 square meters. With such an area, it naturally couldn’t be located in the city center.

The bus drove farther and farther away from the city, and the students were idly chatting as they watched the buildings retreating outside the window.

As they chatted, the discussion naturally turned to Lincoln.

In the past, this was the kind of attention the Princess would receive. However, after one or two years, everyone had grown accustomed to the Princess’s presence, so there was less curiosity and desire to explore.

Lincoln, on the other hand, was a freshly baked topic of conversation, and the students naturally couldn’t avoid talking about him.

Lincoln answered most of the questions raised by the students.

Someone curiously asked him, “How’s the business at the experience store?” Lincoln casually replied, “It’s pretty good, it’s always packed.”

“I’ve seen the location of the Cloud Dream Experience Store, it’s right at the entrance of the commercial street. The rent must be expensive,” one student analyzed. “But the fees at your store are only 10 dollars an hour. Can you make any money? From what I know, similar game experience stores, even in third or fourth-tier cities, charge 30 to 40 dollars an hour. Even then, it’s barely enough to cover the rent and utilities.”

Lincoln still smiled heartily and answered honestly, “Of course it’s not profitable.”

“Huh?” Not only the questioning boy but also the surrounding students were surprised.

“Why would you open it if it’s always losing money?” The boy asked.

The bus went quiet as everyone wanted to know what Lincoln was thinking.

Lincoln couldn’t help but smile bitterly and counter questioned, “What do you think of the price of Mirage, which is ten thousand yuan?”

“It’s very affordable.”

“Cost-effective.”

“I never thought it would be so cheap.”

“The technology is an era ahead ofVR, and the price is only one-seventh. I never expected this, I really admire you.”

The students answered him in unison.

Only Princess Camille Victoria, sitting next to Lincoln, whispered softly, “Ten thousand yuan is a lot of money.”

Lincoln looked at Camille Victoria in surprise.

He never expected that out of so many students, Camille Victoria, who should theoretically be the least sensitive to money, would be the one to give the answer he wanted.

“That’s right, ten thousand yuan is a lot of money. Many people simply can’t afford to spend so much on an entertainment device,” Lincoln nodded to Princess Camille in affirmation.

“Just like the old me, ten thousand yuan was half a year’s living expenses, and I had to work part-time for three months to earn that much. I would never spend it on an entertainment device.”

Everyone then realized that not all families could easily come up with ten thousand yuan to buy a gaming device. No matter how good or groundbreaking the device was, it was not a necessity.

“But shouldn’t the progress of technology make it accessible for everyone to enjoy fairly?” Lincoln continued.

“With that in mind, I think 30 dollars an hour is too expensive, 20 dollars an hour is still too high.”

“The final price should be something that even the old me could spend without hesitation, which is the current 10 dollars an hour.”

“The purpose of the experience store is to let everyone enjoy the groundbreaking virtual reality experience at a low price.”

The bus fell silent for a moment.

Only Princess Camille Victoria looked up, her eyes shining as she stared at Lincoln.

Filled with admiration and emotion..
