I manage female characters in all the heavens.

"But……"

"But what 'but'? Don't you consider me your older sister anymore?" Liu Ting glared at her. "Keep it, focus on getting better. Once you become a martial artist, you'll have plenty of opportunities to repay this favor."

She waved her hand and walked towards the door, saying, "I'm leaving now. Get some rest."

The door closed, and the footsteps gradually faded away.

The ward fell silent.

Luo Feng stared at the bank text message on his phone and remained silent for a long time.

One million.

Adding to the previous 325,000, he has now received 1,325,000 yuan from Liu Ting.

This amount of money was an astronomical figure for the Luo family in the past.

But now, everything is different just because he met someone.

He knew very well that without Liu Ting's help, he would probably still be worrying about the money for martial arts training and supplements, and his family would not have seen such an improvement in their lives.

"I will definitely repay this kindness," he silently vowed in his heart.

Just then, the ward door was pushed open again.

Luo Feng's parents came in.

Luo Hongguo and Gong Xinlan walked to the bedside, exchanged a glance, and revealed a meaningful expression.

"Son..." Gong Xinlan lowered her voice, her eyes sparkling with gossip, "Who was that pretty female classmate just now? I saw she gave you a huge fruit basket and stayed for ages before leaving..."

"Her name is Liu Ting, and she's my classmate," Luo Feng explained somewhat helplessly.

"Just classmates?" Luo Hongguo leaned in, winking. "Then why is she so nice to you?"

"Not only was he the first to come see you, but he also brought a big fruit basket and chatted with you. Even Wei Wen didn't care about you this much. There's definitely something going on between you two!"

"Dad, what are you thinking!" Luo Feng said, both amused and exasperated. "She's like an older sister to me at school, the kind of... the kind of big sister who protects me."

"Big Sister?" Gong Xinlan and Luo Hongguo exchanged a glance, clearly not believing the explanation.

“It’s true.” Luo Feng sighed. “Our family has been able to improve our lives recently thanks to her.”

“The previous 325,000 yuan was the money she and a group of her underlings extorted from the rich and heartless second-generation. Just now she transferred another million to me, saying it was a condolence payment so I could focus on getting better.”

The two were completely shocked when they heard the amount of one million.

"One...one million?" Gong Xinlan's voice trembled. "Just...just to express my condolences to you?"

Xiaofeng, it's not that Mom looks down on you, but Mom has to say, do you really deserve it?

"It's that simple." Luo Feng shrugged helplessly.

Facts speak louder than words.

Luo Hongguo remained silent for a long time, then took a deep breath, patted Luo Feng on the shoulder, and said in a serious and solemn voice:

"Xiaofeng, Liu Ting has helped us so much, and our Luo family must remember this kindness."

"When you become successful in the future, you must repay her, understand?"

"I will." Luo Feng nodded solemnly.

Liu Ting walked out of the hospital gate, the June sun shining warmly on her.

She stood at the hospital entrance, watching the bustling traffic, feeling somewhat lost and without purpose.

The college entrance exam is over, the future path is set, and the Luo family has basically secured their future. What's next?

"...Go home and take care of your health."

She stretched and walked toward the silver Mercedes-Benz S7 parked by the roadside.

In two months, thanks to the various cultivation resources that Liu Wentao bought for her at great expense, she made real progress with the money she had spent.

Now, her pure physical strength has reached 2400 kilograms, exceeding the standard for intermediate warriors, and she is not far from becoming an advanced warrior.

Moreover, this is before even starting to cultivate genetic energy.

Two months, just two months.

She couldn't help but feel a little confused. Why did she go through so much trouble to improve her health in those other worlds?

What are rare and precious materials, what are miraculous elixirs, what are spiritual springs and precious liquids, what are countless flesh and blood? After all that hard work and toil, the limit is that you can only lift 3,000 jin with a single arm.

In this world, with just two months of training and access to resources that don't even deserve to be mentioned, one can surpass that limit.

Once she obtains even more advanced resources, she can directly summon her clones, giving each of them a share of plant spirits. That would be far more efficient than her clones spending hundreds or thousands of years to break through the world's limits.

It's a pity that only characters who have been completely taken over and transformed into clones can summon and open dimensional gates. Recently, games like A Chinese Ghost Story and Ling Cage have not yet been able to enjoy the resources of Devouring Stars and still have to work hard on their own.

"Never mind, let's take it slow."

She shook her head, no longer dwelling on the question.

In the evening, after completing a day's exercise, "Liu Ting" took a shower, changed into loose-fitting home clothes, lay on the sofa, and took out her phone to browse for a while.

Having finally arrived in a world that is neither ancient nor a wasteland, and where she can finally use a mobile phone, she cherishes the time she spends on her phone every day.

Suddenly, Xu Xin called.

"Hey, Xu Xin, what do you want so late?"

"Tingting..." Xu Xin's voice sounded hesitant on the other end of the phone, "I want to tell you something."

"Go ahead and say it, we're like brothers."

"Well... there's still so much summer vacation left, and I'd like to find something to do, something like a work-study program. I have a connection at the HR Alliance Mall in the main city area; they're hiring a manager for the bar counter in their reception hall."

"I wanted to ask if you wanted to come along. I'm a little nervous about going alone..."

Liu Ting was speechless. Xu Xin was still hiding her identity from her, unaware that she had already been exposed.

The eldest daughter of the Xu family working as a manager at the reception bar, providing service, is indeed experiencing life in a very down-to-earth way.

And she even wanted to drag me along. How could a dignified war god-level mental master like her be expected to provide services to a bunch of warriors and generals-level ants?

"Um... Xu Xin, listen to me..."

Just as Liu Ting was about to find a reasonable reason to refuse, her phone vibrated again—another call was coming in.

She glanced at the caller ID: Xu Shanlai.

"Hmm?" She frowned, told Xu Xin, "I'll call back and get back to you later," and then answered Xu Shanlai's call.

"Hey, Uncle Xu."

"Xiaoting, did Xu Xin just call you? Did she say she wanted to work as a bar manager at the HR Alliance Mall?"

Xu Shanlai knew the content of the call as soon as it was made; it was clear that they were eavesdropping on Xu Xin's phone calls.

Your fatherly love is suffocating.

"Yes, she just told me that, and she wanted to ask me to go with her. I was just about to refuse..."

"No! Please don't refuse!" Xu Shanlai's voice suddenly rose eight octaves.

"Xiaoting, listen to me, this girl has never left home or worked before. I'm really worried about her going alone. I'll feel relieved if you can go with her!"

"Oh, Uncle Xu, I'm very busy, I don't have time..."

"One hundred billion!" Xu Shanlai interrupted her refusal directly, "I'll add another one hundred billion in orders to the cooperation between the Xu family and Feigong Group!"

"There's only one condition—you go with Xin'er to work, so she can experience life in peace!"

Liu Ting fell silent.

One hundred billion.

Just so she could accompany her daughter to work a summer job.

Is this the financial power of the super-rich?

"There's no time to waste any longer, I'll take her to experience life tomorrow!" she readily agreed.

Xu Shanlai said with relief, "I knew it, Xiaoting, you definitely wouldn't just sit idly by and watch Xu Xin go to work all alone!"

We really can't just sit idly by, since you've given too much.

A summer job can bring in orders worth 100 billion yuan; even the world's richest man would be tempted by this job.

When Liu Ting dialed Xu Xin's number again, she adopted a more enthusiastic tone: "Xu Xin, I just thought about it, and it would be good to go and get a job. We're just idling around anyway, so let's go together and keep each other company!"

"Really? That's great!" Xu Xin's voice immediately brightened.

"Let's meet at the school gate at eight o'clock tomorrow morning and take the train to the main city together!"

"Huh? Tomorrow? Is it that rushed?" Xu Xin was a little stunned. She had originally planned to take a couple of days off during the summer vacation. "...Okay, see you tomorrow."

Xu Xin suddenly felt conflicted, wondering if she had made a mistake by asking Liu Ting to go to work with her.

She's so proactive!

Chapter 218 The Young Lady's Part-Time Job Life

The next morning, "Liu Ting" arrived at the school gate on time.

Xu Xin arrived soon after, wearing an elegant white dress and carrying a small backpack. She looked fresh and clean, just like an ordinary high school girl.

Who would have thought that this seemingly ordinary girl is actually the apple of the eye of the Xu family, one of the twelve major families in China's HR Alliance?

"Tingting!" Xu Xin waved happily when she saw "Liu Ting".

The two walked side by side to the station and boarded a train to the main urban area of ​​Jiangnan.

HR Alliance Mall is located in the heart of the main urban area. It is an 88-story skyscraper with a streamlined design and a silver-white alloy curtain wall that glitters brightly in the sunlight.

The building is surrounded by a large, beautiful plaza and the largest fountain in the entire Jiangnan Base City, which is very well-maintained.

There were also thousands of armed soldiers patrolling around the square, prohibiting any unauthorized personnel from stepping inside.

This is the headquarters of HR Alliance in Jiangnan City.

Xu Xin felt right at home as she entered the mall, and she led "Liu Ting" through the luxurious lobby to the office area behind the reception hall.

A woman dressed in business attire, who looked to be in her early thirties and had a capable demeanor, was already waiting there.
