Magic: Reincarnate from high-voltage electricity at the start, level up independently.

At 8 p.m., Li Yue, the young woman working at the Divine Order Bureau, finally finished her shift and dragged her exhausted body and mind toward her rented room.

Her rented apartment was in Block B, a newly built residential complex. As usual, she turned into a long street, crossed it, and then turned another corner to reach her home.

The shops on both sides of the street were all open, with stir-fry restaurants, fast food restaurants, and milk tea shops standing side by side, creating a lively atmosphere.

Li Yue was walking slowly when she suddenly stopped in front of a ramen shop. The sign at the entrance was particularly eye-catching: Grand Opening, Beef Noodles Special Price Today: 8 Yuan, Free Refills Available.

No sooner had he finished speaking than his stomach rumbled inappropriately, expressing its hunger.

She took out her phone and glanced at her balance.

Including the 270 yuan Zhao Jian lent her, the total came to exactly 300 yuan.

"We're fairly well-off."

Li Yue nodded in satisfaction, then reached out and pushed open the door of the noodle shop and went inside.

The shop wasn't big, but the bright incandescent lights made people squint. There were four square tables inside, all spotlessly clean. Strangely, there wasn't a single customer in sight.

She casually found a seat and gestured to the owner, "Boss, a special beef noodle soup, no scallions, extra beef!"

"Okay!"

A voice answered from the kitchen; it was a deep, honest voice, clearly belonging to a middle-aged man.

Li Yue was secretly delighted. She had indeed come to the right place. The boss was very easy to talk to, and it was convenient to ask for more noodles.

While waiting for her noodles, she opened her phone and checked the outstanding debts on six different loan platforms.

Seventy thousand, thirty thousand, eight thousand, twenty thousand...

After calculating each item, the total debt amounted to 230,000.

Li Yue didn't even lift her eyelids, completely unconcerned.

Too many lice don't itch, too much debt doesn't worry; it's the creditors who are panicking, not her.

I definitely won't be able to pay it back this month anyway, so instead of wasting my time, I might as well just give up.

Let those heartless capitalists worry about it.

She glanced at the menu on the wall and then called out to the kitchen:

"Boss, cut another two pounds of beef!"

After shouting, he walked to the freezer at the store entrance and rummaged around, but couldn't find the drink he wanted, so he simply went to the convenience store next door and bought a bottle of Erguotou (a type of Chinese liquor).

Before long, the owner came out with a steaming bowl of beef noodles and placed it in front of her.

He rubbed his hands together and said with a simple smile, "Iron Bull Beef Noodles, you eat first, I'll go cut some meat for you right away."

Li Yue didn't rush to pick up her chopsticks. When the two jin of beef was served, she piled most of it onto the noodles, making a large bowl full and looking exceptionally plentiful.

She took out her phone, snapped a picture of the bowl, and posted it on her WeChat Moments with the caption: "May the Lesser Fullness of Grain bring peace."

After posting, she held her phone, staring intently at the screen, frantically refreshing the page, waiting for the envious comments.

"Ding-dong—"

A message popped up that she hadn't read. She quickly clicked on it and saw that it was Huang Shuo's comment. She immediately deflated.

[Shuo Gou]: No, you've already borrowed for ten thousand ages and you still dare to eat like this? Don't you want to live anymore?

She simply ignored those sarcastic comments.

Immediately afterwards, two more comments popped up, one from team leader Zhao Jian and the other from the burly Lao Hei.

[Old Zhao (an honest man)]: Thumbs up! Thumbs up!

[Old Black]: (picking nose) (picking nose)

Li Yue ignored it, her fingertips constantly refreshing the screen, just waiting for a comment that would let her show off a little.

Finally, a comment caught my eye, from my roommate—

[Qin Shu (pretentious woman)]: You've struck it rich???

Li Yue's eyes lit up, and she immediately replied: No, I just went to scratch a lottery ticket and luckily won a thousand yuan~

After waiting a few minutes without a reply, Li Yue pouted, convinced that the woman had gone off to be secretly jealous.

Her mood instantly improved, her appetite returned, and she devoured the food with gusto.

After finishing her meal, Li Yue took out a tissue to wipe her mouth, took out her phone to scan the QR code to pay, and skillfully entered the payment password with her fingertips.

The next second, a prompt appeared on the page:

Sorry, your balance is insufficient.

Li Yue: "???"

How could she not have enough money? She didn't spend money recklessly; a bottle of Erguotou only costs six yuan!

She panicked and quickly checked her wallet balance, where the screen displayed: 2.1 yuan.

"What the hell?!"

Li Yue suddenly raised her voice, rubbed her eyes in disbelief, and looked again; it was still two yuan and one jiao.

She hurriedly opened the payment details and discovered that a few minutes earlier, the money in her account had been deducted by the automatic deduction system for "pay later".

"Damn it! Who invented this inhumane design and deducted my pay without my consent!"

Li Yue gritted her teeth in anger, her mind instantly panicking.

Hearing the commotion outside, the kitchen owner thought something had happened. He rushed out without even putting down his cleaver, asking with concern:

"What's wrong, young lady? Is the noodles not to your liking?"

Li Yue looked up and caught sight of the gleaming kitchen knife in the boss's hand, and her eyelids twitched violently.

Oh no, what if she says she has no money when the seemingly honest boss with a kitchen knife is holding her? Will she get beaten up right away?

[Inner monologue: Family, if I say I want to dine and dash, will the owner allow it? Waiting for an answer online, urgent!]

Li Yue took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the embarrassment on her face, and forced a sweet smile at the boss:

"No, no, boss, I'm just not full and would like to ask for more noodles, but I'm a little embarrassed to ask."

Upon hearing this, the boss breathed a sigh of relief and smiled as well.

"I thought it was something serious, it's just noodles. It's good that young people have good appetites, I'll go get you some right away!"

After saying that, the boss picked up the empty bowl on the table, turned around, and went into the kitchen.

As soon as the boss left, Li Yue's face fell, and she became so anxious that she fidgeted in her seat.

"It's all over, it's really over!"

She quickly opened WeChat and sent messages to people in her contacts asking for money, but the messages disappeared without a trace, and no one replied for a long time.

The credit limit on the online lending platform has long been exhausted, and I can't borrow even a single penny more.

...Before she knew it, she had already had four bowls of noodles, but Li Yue still hadn't borrowed a single penny.

Her belly was already quite round, but she still forced a smile and awkwardly looked towards the kitchen.

"Boss, another bowl, please!"

"Okay!"

The owner remained cheerful, showing no impatience whatsoever. He even thought the girl must be starving, so this time he thoughtfully added a few extra slices of beef to the noodles he served.

"...Thank you, boss."

Li Yue stared at the beef in the bowl, paused, her nose tingled, and she almost cried.

There are still more good people than bad in the world. But it would be even better if a good person could lend her tens of millions for no reason.

She can do anything.

Just as Li Yue was pacing anxiously, footsteps came from the doorway.

The noodle shop finally welcomed its second customer.

The man looked to be around forty years old, with a somewhat weathered expression. He was carrying a black plastic bag, and his hair was neatly trimmed. His clothes, pants, and shoes were all new, as if they had just been bought.

Chu Ge casually found a table to sit down and began to speak:

"Boss, one bowl of beef noodles, plus two pounds of beef."

After his "training" on the street today, he suddenly found two thousand yuan and a pile of food in front of him.

He shared the food he couldn't finish with other homeless people, and then found a place to tidy himself up.

I wanted to find a place to stay, but without an ID card, I kept running into obstacles. I wandered over to this noodle shop and came in to have a bowl of hot noodles.

Chu Ge was never one to engage in internal strife. If he really couldn't find a place to stay, he could just sleep under a bridge and continue "asking for money" the next day.

He firmly believed that even if he had to beg for food, he could still achieve unparalleled success throughout history!

But Chu Ge had only been sitting down for a short while when he realized something was wrong.

The pretty girl opposite him kept secretly watching him, her eyes filled with a mixture of pity, helplessness, and urgency.

Moreover, this girl looks... somewhat familiar.

Chu Ge didn't pay attention, picked up a piece of beef and put it in his mouth. He had just chewed a couple of times when he saw the girl stand up and walk straight to sit down opposite him.

"Uncle, could you lend me some money? I realized I didn't have enough to pay the bill after I finished eating."

Li Yue spoke directly, blinked her big eyes, and instantly put on a pitiful look, skillfully activating her ability to get into character in a second.

Chu Ge glanced at her, his tone calm, and said without hesitation, "Okay."

"real?!"

Li Yue's eyes widened instantly, her face filled with disbelief, but her heart was filled with joy.

Did she just get incredibly lucky and run into another really kind person?

wrong--

The next second, Li Yue's smile suddenly froze, her heart skipped a beat, and she vaguely felt that something was wrong.

Where do so many good people come from in the world?
