Rebirth: Start to Save the Treasure Girl

Chapter 241 Lin Ruoxi's Home

This girl with burgundy hair just broke up with a boy at noon and found another one in the afternoon?
Lin Ruoxi thought this girl was amazing.

The middle-aged man at the side waved his hand, signaling the people around him to make room.

Soon, the place where the man's eyes swept was immediately vacated, leaving the girl who was targeted with nowhere to go.

The girl felt very stressed. Why would her boss ask her about her love life?
She looked at the boy at the next table and said, "I've dated three."

Lin Ruoxi tilted her head and stared at the girl's face. After a brief silence, she said, "Your eyes were evasive and you kept fiddling with your chopsticks while you were talking. Are you lying?"

Yu Minlan was shocked. You have this ability?
Then why not use it on Xue Rui!
She suddenly felt that Lin Ruoxi's IQ had been rising rapidly since the moment Xue Rui left.

Lin Ruoxi noticed Yu Minlan's surprised look, and she whispered, "I've been studying behavioral psychology recently."

There are some books in the rented house. She is currently reading a book called "Behavioral Psychology - Body Language Interpretation and Lie Detection".

Yu Minlan swallowed her saliva and thought that Xue Rui was finished this time.

The girl grinned helplessly: "I can't remember..."

"Well, this is true." Lin Ruoxi nodded, with a flash of shock in her eyes.

Yu Minlan was also shocked by this sentence. How could there be someone who couldn’t remember how many boyfriends she had?

"I want to ask you, how did you catch up with boys?" Lin Ruoxi said as she took out another hundred yuan.

Yu Minlan sighed. She just felt an aura from a superior. She thought Lin Ruoxi had grown up and had the temperament of a leader.
Now that I came to my senses, I realized that it was the girl who was very nervous in front of the middle-aged man next to her, which made Lin Ruoxi look like a leader...

However, Lin Ruoxi came here to find this girl to learn skills?

The girl had a very complicated expression and she didn't know how to answer this question.

"I never chase boys, it's always boys who chase me." said the girl proudly.

Lin Ruoxi shook her head in disappointment, put the money back into her pocket, and turned away with the plate.

Lin Ruoxi leaned close to Yu Minlan's ear and whispered, "Xue Rui taught me this. As long as you pretend not to make a deal, the other party will reveal the truth."

Yu Minlan wondered what Xue Rui was teaching?
The girl felt a little lonely when she saw Lin Ruoxi suddenly leave, as if the money that was about to be in her hands had flown away. This beautiful leader was different from other leaders. She would not curse casually, and she only said a few words at noon before giving her the money...

"Leader, you are so beautiful, why do you still pursue others?" the girl asked.

"Well, I haven't caught up yet." Lin Ruoxi nodded.

"Then don't chase me. You are so beautiful..."

"No, I have to chase after him." Lin Ruoxi pouted and left angrily.

The girl didn't tell her the secret of pursuing a boy, she just said some empty words.

The middle-aged man who was accompanying him twitched his eyes. This leader was too difficult to please. He didn't even listen to flattery.

"Mr. Lin, please sit here. The air-conditioning is cool here." The man hurriedly found a cool seat for Lin Ruoxi.

"Thank you." Lin Ruoxi nodded and glanced around the cafeteria casually.

"What are you asking about? Why don't I ask for you?" the man said.

He was also curious about what this girl was thinking? As the superior of these people, he never cared about the private relationships of his employees. Lin Ruoxi, a shareholder, actually asked in person...

"It's that girl. We saw her at noon..." Yu Minlan told the man what had happened.

After hearing this, the man smiled and said, "It's normal. Some girls have higher expenses..."

He thought that the two girls were still young, and some were even leaving school for the first time. They only became his leaders right after graduation because of Boss Xue's influence, and they had no idea about the lives of their peers at the lower class.

Yu Minlan felt that the man was being too euphemistic. She whispered to Lin Ruoxi, "It's an exchange of interests. The girl wants the boy's salary, and the boy wants the girl's body."

She felt it necessary to translate for Lin Ruoxi.

The man saw the two people whispering, he smiled at Lin Ruoxi and left his seat.

After dinner, the two left the electronics factory, and Yu Minlan drove Lin Ruoxi around the nearby industrial park.

It was dark, and many young couples were walking hand in hand on the roadside, their shadows cast in pairs under the street lights.

After Yu Minlan knew the truth, she didn't feel envious at all. These shadows could easily disperse, and even combine with other shadows...

While waiting for the traffic light, Lin Ruoxi stretched her slender arms out of the window. She looked at the shadow of her palm reflected on the ground and recalled the road she and Xue Rui used to walk after school. Xue Rui would lie on her shoulders and their shadows would stick together.

Yu Minlan sighed softly. Lin Ruoxi hadn't smiled the whole day since she sent Xue Rui away at noon.

It was as if Xue Rui had taken away Lin Ruoxi's smile.

She thought about it and realized that if she went back to the house, Lin Ruoxi would most likely stay inside and not come out, so it would be better to just sit on the side of the road and chat in the breeze.

She bought Lin Ruoxi a cup of hot milk tea at a milk tea shop on the street, and the two of them sat in the car in a daze.

"Sister Ruoxi, what are you thinking about?" Yu Minlan asked.

In just half a day, Lin Ruoxi became more and more dull, like an empty shell. The only time she showed any emotion was when she got angry with that girl and said that she wanted to pursue Xue Rui.

She felt that it was also related to the abnormal view of love she had just heard.

The world outside is too realistic. They don’t talk about feelings at all, only interests.

"Well, I'm waiting for Xue Rui's call." Lin Ruoxi raised the phone she was holding and put the milk tea in the armrest box.

Yu Minlan looked into Lin Ruoxi's eyes. She opened her mouth, but then swallowed her words. She just wanted to scold Xue Rui.

It would be fine if Lin Ruoxi didn't know, but she knew that Xue Rui had been on the phone at night recently. What could he talk about with a boy? He must be chatting with Gu Muxue.

The most likely reason for him to go back now is to accompany Gu Muxue.

She was also very clear about Lin Ruoxi's growth experience. After all, in order to serve her financial sponsor well, she had to investigate the information.

Lin Ruoxi's life used to be dark, but Xue Rui turned into a beam of light that shone into Lin Ruoxi's life. Now this beam of light is only gone for a short time, and Lin Ruoxi's world seems to have become dark again.

"Exchange of interests..." Lin Ruoxi murmured.

Why is love an exchange of interests?
Is there any exchange of interests between her and Xue Rui?
Yu Minlan said, "Sister Ruoxi, Boss Xue definitely has no intention of taking advantage of you."

Xue Rui is a two-timing scumbag, but she has to admit that it is rare to find a scumbag who can tolerate Lin Ruoxi for two years.

Although Xue Rui asked her to teach Lin Ruoxi how to fall in love, she knew clearly that Xue Rui wanted Lin Ruoxi to understand and make her own decisions in the future instead of giving away everything in a confused manner.

If you didn't really like it, why would you wait so long?

As for other purposes? That's even more impossible. Lin Ruoxi was penniless, but Xue Rui put his assets under Lin Ruoxi's name.

This is the tacit understanding between the two people, and the trust that comes from the heart.

"Well, of course I know that Xue Rui won't harm me." Lin Ruoxi nodded.

She saw through the car window a couple passing by, and the boy's hands were touching the girl's body.

After saying this, she stretched out her fingers and weighed her proud breasts.

Yu Minlan looked down at her deflated chest, fearing that she would not be able to make such elastic movements.

"What are you doing?" Yu Minlan asked curiously. Are you showing off your figure?

If she had this figure, she would definitely show off in front of girls every day.

"When Xue Rui is tickling, he will sometimes... rub it." Lin Ruoxi said in a low voice. She felt that what was said on the Internet was not entirely unreasonable. Xue Rui is also a boy, and boys just like to look at breasts.

Well, not just looking...

She just couldn't understand why Xue Rui liked it, but as long as Xue Rui was happy, that was all that mattered.

"..." Yu Minlan's face turned red. Lin Ruoxi actually said such embarrassing words seriously.

Every time the two of them played around, she would turn her head away and take a peek. She had actually noticed Xue Rui's little trick a long time ago. She thought Lin Ruoxi didn't know that she was being taken advantage of.

It turns out that Lin Ruoxi had known all along and was just pampering Xue Rui.

Lin Ruoxi stared blankly at the dark sky. Xue Rui had sent her a message before, saying that he had landed in Hedong City.

Yu Minlan took a sip of her drink and felt relieved, glad that Lin Ruoxi was not influenced by these distorted views on love.

But now she was inexplicably worried about Xue Rui. Lin Ruoxi was exposed to more and more things, and she even started to dabble in behavioral psychology and even put it into practice...

With Lin Ruoxi's learning ability, can Xue Rui handle it?
Just as she was thinking this, Xue Rui made a video call.

As the phone screen lit up in the dim car, the little girl's eyes gradually raised. What seemed like a pool of stagnant water in her eyes before now turned into a slowly flowing clear spring.

Yu Minlan was stunned. She hadn't seen Lin Ruoxi smile for half a day, but she was still so beautiful when she smiled.

She felt that she was overthinking it. Xue Rui could fool Lin Ruoxi just by calling her nickname. What was the point of Lin Ruoxi learning more psychology?

Yu Minlan saw it clearly from the perspective of an observer.

Lin Ruoxi's emotions were like a thread, entangled in Xue Rui's fingertips, and Lin Ruoxi was the one whose emotions were controlled.

I don’t know if Lin Ruoxi herself realized it.

But...what if she realized it? Lin Ruoxi was willing to do it.

"Did you eat well?" Xue Rui asked with a smile.

"Well, I ate mushrooms, vegetables, tomatoes and eggs..." Lin Ruoxi reported what she had just eaten.

Yu Minlan pinched her brows and sent a message to Xue Rui: "She didn't eat any staple food today."

Lin Ruoxi's emotions fluctuated too much. She only ordered some dishes for dinner and ate much less than usual. She just ordered a cup of milk tea with a lot of ingredients added to it, but Lin Ruoxi didn't drink it.

When Xue Rui saw the message from Yu Minlan, he was stunned for a moment.

The thing he was most worried about happened. In the past, he would trick the little girl into waiting obediently, but at that time they were all in Hedong. Although they couldn't see each other either, the little girl would think that he would come soon.

But it’s different now. The two are separated by thousands of kilometers, and the little girl’s mood is greatly affected.

Yes, some people are like this. When he was in college, he even saw grown men crying secretly in their beds because they missed home...

The little girl has never been out of Hedong. She was fine when he was around, but she refused to eat after he left?

What should I do if this continues? Losing weight is a small matter, but a bad mood can make you sick.

Xue Rui frowned and said to the screen: "You are lying. You are obviously not full."

"Well, I'm full." Lin Ruoxi said weakly, and just as she finished speaking, her stomach suddenly growled.

"You actually lied to me." Xue Rui said in a deliberately deep voice.

The little girl hurriedly shook her head, tears welling up in her eyes: "I...I didn't lie to you."

She didn't know what was wrong with her. She felt full after just a few bites and didn't even want to eat the chocolate pie.

But when I was video chatting with Xue Rui, I suddenly felt very hungry.

The little girl picked up the milk tea that Yu Minlan had just bought, took out a chocolate pie from her schoolbag, and started eating it, taking a sip of the milk tea and a bite of the pie.

Xue Rui smiled and thought to himself that the little girl was really something, she still needed him to supervise her while eating.

Yu Minlan was speechless. She had advised Lin Ruoxi to eat more before but it was of no use. Now Lin Ruoxi was facing the camera to prove to Xue Rui that she was eating well.

Xue Rui and the little girl had a video call for a while. To be precise, they didn't say anything at all. They just stared at each other on the screen in a daze, just like when they were together normally.

"Eat well in the future. If you lose weight..." Xue Rui hesitated for a long time and didn't know what to use to threaten the little girl.

How to threaten?

What does the little girl care about?
Suddenly, a furry dog ​​passed by his feet.

He is now in Xue Yao's room. When he came back, he took Da Huang home to raise him.

The little girl looked at the screen nervously, her breathing became rapid. She didn't know what Xue Rui was going to say, but she was very scared.

"If you lose weight, it's all Dahuang's fault." Xue Rui said as he turned the camera over and kicked Dahuang.

Yu Minlan thought to herself, you are a real dog, why are you bringing this up with the dog for no reason?
You get shot even when you're lying down!

"Woof woof woof!" Dahuang barked at Xue Rui.

Lin Ruoxi was stunned, and subconsciously said, "Don't scream, Da Huang."

Hearing the little girl's voice coming from the speaker, Da Huang's tail wagged quickly...

"I will eat well...can you please not hit it?" Lin Ruoxi said softly.

Xue Rui chuckled, this threat was neither big nor small, and the little girl was so soft-hearted, so it must be of some use.

"Get an electronic scale and weigh yourself for me every day," Xue Rui said.

"Yes, I'll show it to you every day." The little girl responded obediently.

Xue Rui smiled. The little girl was different from other girls. She even let him help her choose her underwear. Checking her weight was not a private matter at all.

"No more talking. Bye." Xue Rui waved and hung up the phone.

When he pressed the hang-up button, he caught a glimpse of the little girl's lost expression on the screen...

Damn, a feeling of guilt arises!

But if he doesn't hang up, the little girl will never press the hang-up button. How long will it take for her to finish the call?

At this time, Yu Minlan received a call from her mother.

"Mom, I'm working and will be home soon." Yu Minlan hung up the phone with a smile.

She has been away from home for a month, and her mother calls her every few days.

But she really missed home a little.

After hanging up the phone, she found that Lin Ruoxi had been looking at her.

She suddenly thought of Lin Ruoxi not having parents, and she felt a little guilty...

"I... have no home." Lin Ruoxi said in a low voice.

Yu Minlan felt a sharp pain in her heart. Was this Lin Ruoxi's revenge? As expected of someone who had studied psychology, this was more painful than a slap in the face.

How can she sleep tonight like this!
"There will be time in the future..." Yu Minlan comforted.

Lin Ruoxi looked at Xue Rui in the wallpaper on her phone, her eyes full of smiles: "I will have it..."

She thought about it and said seriously: "I think I already have it. Where Xue Rui is is home."

Yu Minlan covered her heart with her hands. As a single person, she was hit hard again.

After Lin Ruoxi hung up the phone, she suddenly thought of a question. Her stomach did growl just now, but the sound was very small. Cell phones have noise reduction. Why did Xue Rui realize so quickly that she was not full?
It was as if he had known it from the beginning, and his tone was very firm.

"Sister Yu, did you send a message to Xue Rui saying that I didn't eat well?" Lin Ruoxi asked weakly.

Yu Minlan's eye muscles contracted unconsciously. Lin Ruoxi actually questioned her?
Before Yu Minlan could answer, Lin Ruoxi said to herself, "Well, I know."

"..."

Yu Minlan covered her face and said, "I know you are still asking."
