"Don't do something so foolish..."
"Haha, am I that stupid?" Lin Mo ruffled her hair.
“Your grandmother asked for a dowry of 800,000 yuan, which I can’t afford right now.”
"But in your small town, where are you going to find so many people who have been relocated due to demolition? Just introduce a wife to the son of some nouveau riche in your village, right? She may not be as pretty as you, but there are plenty of gold diggers who know how to dress well."
"You...you can explain? Where do you know so much..."
"They're getting married next month."
"How did you do that?! For over a month, you've been studying non-stop, not even taking a nap at noon, and coming home so late at night..."
Suddenly, Shen Yanxi seemed to realize something.
Oh, he went home so late at night and didn't even take a nap during his lunch break. He wasn't studying at all. I was completely fooled by him.
How much work would that involve? For a student still in school, it must be incredibly difficult...
"Thanks to you, I won't be able to get into Li Qingran's bed during winter break."
So, because he's busy dealing with her issues, he won't be able to do well on this exam...?
“But that’s not enough. I need to get some money to put your family’s mind at ease.”
Lin Mo slowly explained, "But compared to finding someone a wife, this is relatively simple. I met with your uncle in person, showed him your ID card, and told him you're with me..."
"I knew it...why I sometimes can't find my ID card..." Shen Yanxi pouted and muttered.
"Did you give him the money back...?"
"I already said I wouldn't do anything stupid."
"and you..."
Lin Mo smiled, opened his phone, and tapped on his bank account.
"Count them, how many zeros are there?"
Shen Yanxi looked up and was startled. "So many?!"
"They all belong to Qingran."
Actually, he had accumulated the gold coins using cheats, just in case. He was hoping to get a lot of gold coins, but luckily they were all easy to fool.
"Oh... then it's alright."
“I was just making empty promises to your uncle, showing him how much money I have, and even taking him to see Qingran’s villa, saying that I was keeping you there, so that he would think I was a rich second-generation. They just missed a chance to make money, how could they possibly let me go?”
"Who would have thought that your sixth uncle wanted to take it all for himself? Your grandma didn't know about this and just called to argue with me."
"It's already been resolved."
Lin Mo glanced at the silent Shen Yanxi, thought for a moment, then quietly placed his hand on her shoulder and pulled her closer.
Shen Yanxi's body felt terrifyingly numb and trembled constantly. The moment he gently put his arm around her shoulder, she felt a chill run down her spine.
"You shouldn't have to take on this kind of responsibility. Go and relax with them."
"understand?"
"don't know..."
"Yes, I told him I would marry you."
"..."
Shen Yanxi's face flushed red. "I understand."
Lin Mo was both amused and exasperated.
"So, they won't get the money, right...?"
"Give me a damn thing, if I had any dowry, I'd rather give it to you."
"Oh...then why didn't you give it to Xixi..."
"You really got into it, didn't you?"
"..."
No longer speaking, the girl, who had been gazing intently at the scenery outside the building, couldn't help but tilt her head to look at him.
it's wired.
How could this happen...
Is this God's compensation to Xixi?
But there are so many suspicious points. How did Lin Mo know her uncle's contact information? How was he so familiar with her hometown? How did he find a wife for her, acting like a know-it-all...?
It knows everything and can do everything.
Besides... money... it's not that simple. She knew her relatives; they wouldn't even spare her family's land. Lin Mo must have suffered a lot...
"I...I'm going back."
Unable to bear the immense favor and ambiguity, Shen Yanxi said softly, breaking free from Lin Mo's embrace.
Lin Mo didn't stop her, since she was heading towards the villa area.
...
"Why are you running so fast?"
"Qingran, wow...you just finished showering?"
"Ah."
"I'd like to ask, do you have a lot of money in your bank account?"
"Yes, do you need it? I can lend it to you."
"No, no, no... Xixi is just a little curious... about how much is there?"
Li Qingran gave her a number and showed her her account details, saying as she combed her hair:
"Ever since Lin Mo came, he has not let me spend this money anymore."
"so..."
One sentence sparked a painful, agonizing love within her.
He saved all of that himself through sheer hard work...
I can't live without it...
It seems that, right at this moment, Xixi is the one who is most cherished, isn't she?
What to do.
This is not about marrying her.
This is clearly an attempt to buy her for life.
Chapter 160 Ag:parts
"Qingran, I, I've finished taking a shower."
The energetic girl took a bath, washing away all her energy, and stood hesitating at the bathroom door.
Shen Yanxi's hair was only shoulder-length, and after drying it, it wasn't as long and complicated as Li Qingran's waist-length hair.
Normally, half an hour would be enough for her, but today she spent an hour in the bathroom.
Even when she came out, her hair was still wet.
Even as the hot water cooled down on her skin, leaving her body ice-cold, her pounding heart could not find peace.
"H-how is it...?"
Li Qingran was puzzled and asked in confusion:
"What? How is it?"
"I think I look a little prettier than before after my shower..." Shen Yanxi shrank her neck shyly. "I usually use soap with Qingran, but I used shower gel today. Is that okay?"
“It’s okay to use.” Li Qingran nodded. “Qingran will start using shower gel too.”
"why?"
Li Qingran thought for a moment, seemingly considering whether or not to tell Shen Yanxi.
"Yes, because once I caught Lin Mo secretly smelling the soap Qing Ran had used..."
"Ah?!"
"Of course, it's also possible that it smelled... the one you used," Li Qingran added.
"Qingran was afraid of scaring you, so she didn't say anything. She plans to switch to shower gel after she runs out of soap."
Shen Yanxi was a little confused. Was this still Chinese?... How come even girls' soap is mentioned...?
"By the way, Qingran, why do you only buy Safeguard shower gel? You buy so much but use so little..."
"Because I'm used to using soap, and Safeguard is..." Li Qingran paused, her pointed ears turning slightly red with embarrassment.
"For washing feet."
Do I need to use shower gel specifically to wash my feet...?
"Lin Mo likes to eat it."
"?"
“My intention wasn’t for him to eat it,” Li Qingran frowned her delicate brows. “It’s just that, if it’s not washed specifically, Lin Mo would prefer to eat it unwashed…”
"I do not know what to do."
"Qingran... I know Lin Mo is a bit strange in some ways, but aren't you a little strange too...?"
“Me?” Li Qingran pointed to herself.
"Yeah, yeah! It's strange that you can say it so naturally... isn't it? This kind of thing..."
"Strange...it seems today's study tasks are quite demanding." Li Qingran lowered her head and began organizing the study materials she would take on the camping trip.
"So, so, Qingran, does Xixi look any better than usual?" Shen Yanxi asked impatiently.
"Yes?" Li Qingran replied.
"Huh... why does it feel like you put a question mark in your answer..."
"I don't know if it looks good or not."
"Qingran, you're so beautiful! Can't you tell?"
"do not know."
Shen Yanxi then realized, could it be that Li Qingran lacks a complete aesthetic sense...?
That wretched Lin Mo, he turned a perfectly beautiful girl's head into a mess of nonsense.
“If Lin Mo says it’s beautiful, then it’s beautiful,” Li Qingran suddenly said. “So, there’s no need to know what’s beautiful.”
"As long as he's happy."
Li Qingran stared at her for a while, then continued packing her things.
"Xixi, if you really care, you shouldn't be asking me."
As long as he's happy.
Shen Yanxi suddenly felt that those words were a bit too heavy.
It seemed as if Li Qingran was hinting to her that if she wanted to join, she shouldn't overthink it; Li Qingran wouldn't do anything to her, she'd be treated the same as everyone else, and any help Li Qingran provided shouldn't be counted.
We're still friends.
But there was also a hint of warning in it. Li Qingran knew Lin Mo the most and had the deepest bond with him. If Xixi really made up her mind...
Think it over.
Where did I slip up...?
Was it just because I asked Qingran if she had become more beautiful... that she noticed something?
