Zhou Fengliu frowned when he saw Chen Duo shake her head. Generally, if Chen Duo took the initiative to come to him, it was definitely not a good thing.

You can either treat him as a life mentor and ask him for help with any confusion or psychological guidance you may have.

Or perhaps they're planning to steal his "money-giving philosophy," then use the techniques they learned from him to their advantage...

Thinking of this, Zhou Fengliu asked:

"You're not here to ask me for hush money again, are you?"

"No."

Chen Duo shook her head again. She considered her words, but she didn't know how to start.

"Go in and talk."

Seeing Chen Duo's unusually hesitant demeanor, Zhou Fengliu roughly guessed that it probably had nothing to do with money, but rather that something was wrong with her mind.

So he opened the office door and let Chen Duo in.

"Are you having trouble?"

"Or do you have some ideas?"

Zhou Fengliu sat on the sofa and slowly asked Chen Duo, who was standing beside him.

Before Chen Duo even spoke, he had already guessed several questions and difficulties she might raise.

When Chen Duo finally spoke, he was somewhat taken aback by her actions.

As far as the eye could see, Chen Duo took out her black plastic bag, which she used to keep money, from her pocket.

She placed the plastic bag in front of Zhou Fengliu, then opened it, revealing the red bills inside, as well as two small "yellow croakers" that she had taken from Zhou Fengliu's hand.

Good guy...

Upon seeing Chen Duo's secret stash of money, Zhou Fengliu couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.

He glanced at her briefly; Chen Duo's savings were quite substantial.

A person should be looked at with new eyes after three days of separation. Chen Duo is no longer the kind of person who needs to borrow money from him just to try out a claw machine.

"You've saved up quite a bit, not bad, not bad," Zhou Fengliu said.

Hearing Zhou Fengliu's praise, Chen Duo didn't pay much attention. Seeing her calmly looking at Zhou Fengliu, she then said:

"This is all my savings since I met you... my salary, plus small amounts I got from others. After paying you back, I probably still have tens of thousands of yuan left..."

"?"

"So?" Zhou Fengliu was very curious about what Chen Duo was up to.

"So... if you really need money, I can lend it to you... you don't have to fall into depravity and become a rich woman's plaything..."

Chen Duo said that although the amount of money was not much, it was all money she had saved up piece by piece.

Her monthly salary and bonuses, smuggled from the enemy... she accumulated this wealth little by little until today.

Although she was indeed a little reluctant, after all, she had saved up for so long, but... she felt that rather than going on a trip, she didn't want to see Zhou Fengliu fall into depravity and become some rich woman's plaything...

"borrow?"

"A rich woman's plaything?"

"What is this all about?"

Listening to Chen Duo's words, Zhou Fengliu's expression resembled that of an elderly person looking at their phone on the subway, somewhat confused about what Chen Duo was talking about.

How did he fall into depravity?

It's true that he's short of money... but not to the point where he needs to borrow money from Chen Duo!

"Who told you I was going to become degenerate?"

Zhou Fengliu felt there must be something fishy about this, otherwise Chen Duo wouldn't have realized it at all.

"..."

Hearing Zhou Fengliu's question, Chen Duo unsurprisingly betrayed Zhuge Qing, repeating to Zhou Fengliu word for word what Zhuge Qing had said after Zhou Fengliu and Qu Tong got into the car last night.

After hearing Chen Duo's description, Zhou Fengliu looked as if he had not expected it.

Old Qing, oh Old Qing...

You know quite a lot.

That's what Zhou Fengliu was thinking.

Although the story was fake, the friendship was real. Seeing that Chen Duo was willing to give him her savings, Zhou Fengliu felt a sense of relief.

The money-grubbing disciple...doesn't just exploit his master.

In crucial moments... they really can step up.

Row.

Duozi is a good person, better at getting along with people than Lao Qing...

"Duozi, are you willing to give me all your money?" Zhou Fengliu asked.

Upon hearing this question, Chen Duo glanced at the black plastic bag on the table, then corrected Zhou Fengliu's statement:

"It's a loan, it has to be returned..."

"..." Zhou Fengliu.

Eh.

That's unnecessary.

Zhou Fengliu shook his head and waved to Chen Duo, saying:

"Keep this money you've worked so hard to save. Don't be so frugal; spend it when you need to..."

"You always wear a work uniform, completely covered up, yet you've managed to suppress the primordial poison, haven't you? You're still a young girl, shouldn't you buy some clothes?"

Speaking of Chen Duo's work clothes, it's as if they're welded to her body; aside from a set of pajamas for sleeping, they're practically her everyday clothes...

Faced with Zhou Fengliu's lecturing, Chen Duo looked at her work clothes.

how to say?

She didn't feel there was anything wrong with her work uniform...

Comfortable and durable.

Most importantly... it doesn't cost any money, which is great.

"No money..." Chen Duo replied with two words.

These two concise words left Zhou Fengliu speechless for a moment. He looked at the red bills on the table and asked, "What's this?"

"I'm keeping this because I might need it..."

"..." Zhou Fengliu.

"My relationship with President Qu was just normal social interaction. I haven't fallen into depravity. In the end, take your money and leave my office."

"okay."

After receiving confirmation that Zhou Fengliu had not fallen into depravity, Chen Duo nodded, then carefully put her savings back into her pocket before leaving the office.

Watching Chen Duo leave the office, Zhou Fengliu was at a loss for words regarding Chen Duo's penny-pincher nature.

He hadn't expected this either...

How did Chen Duo, who was ignorant of human affairs, lived as a Gu, and wanted to choose power, unknowingly turn into a miserly character?

Chen Duo: Life boils down to two words (kissing) and making money!

I don't know what she's going to do with all that money? She doesn't have the passive Qi cultivation ability of "money is power"...

Zhou Fengliu had a question in his mind, but just as he had it, a memory seemed to flash through his mind...

He vaguely remembered that Chen Duo had expressed the idea of ​​saving money to travel...

Is that the case?

Zhou Fengliu stroked his chin, then made a call to Hua Nan, instructing Zhang Lingyu to increase Chen Duo's base salary by 500 yuan per month...

...

Just as Zhou Fengliu was calling Zhang Lingyu, Zhuge Qing, who was still unaware of what was going on, smiled and held a document, ready to ask Zhou Fengliu to sign it.

He had just peeked out when his eyes met Zhou Fengliu's. Seeing the expression on Zhou Fengliu's face, his smile vanished.

What happened?

Why does Lao Zhou look so pale?

Could it be...

Did you overwork yourself last night?
