Rebirth: Start to Save the Treasure Girl

Chapter 80 For Safety
Xue Rui knew about Bitcoin around 2017.

When he was in college, he did some small business on campus, saved up a little money, and thought about buying a new computer.

But... the price of Bitcoin skyrocketed, causing all other virtual currencies to increase in price.

Some virtual currencies are "mined" using graphics cards.

This has resulted in high prices for gaming graphics cards.

In addition, the shipment volume of smartphones at that time reached an all-time high, and the price of memory and flash memory increased accordingly.

The worst thing is that the wafer factory in South Korea seems to be on fire?

With all the negative factors, the price of graphics cards has increased several times. An 8GB memory stick costs 1000 yuan, and a 250GB hard drive costs 700 yuan...

In the end, Xue Rui spent a total of twelve thousand yuan on something that usually only sold for five or six thousand yuan.

This made Xue Rui feel painful for a while, so he was impressed by Bitcoin.

"Mu Xue, have you opened an online banking card?" Xue Rui asked.

He couldn’t open an online bank account with his current identity, and he thought that a girl like Gu Muxue should be able to shop online.

"No." Gu Muxue shook her head.

She thought for a moment: "Do you want to borrow money? Or buy something?"

She didn't hear what Xue Rui and Xue Jianfeng said.

But she saw from the glass on the door that Xue Rui handed the red envelope to Xue Jianfeng with an unhappy look on his face, and she thought Xue Rui was short of money.

"Forget it." Xue Rui waved his hands, thinking that if it doesn't work, he could just use Ren Jun's bank card.

"Oh." Gu Muxue was a little disappointed. She was thinking of asking Xue Rui to beg her.

Suddenly, a dog's head popped out from the crack in the door.

"I have to go to work." The waitress stuck out her tongue and sent Dahuang back.

Xue Rui held back his laughter. Da Huang was now dressed up beautifully, with a small white flower on his ear, blush on his face, and his tongue sticking out. He looked particularly cute.

"Huh? Where did this dog come from?" Xue Yao's childishness suddenly overwhelmed her, and she squatted down to touch Dahuang's head.

Xue Rui hurried to persuade him. He felt that Dahuang was a guard dog and had a bit of a temper. Strangers should be careful when touching it for the first time, as it would be bad if they got bitten.

Unexpectedly, even though Xue Yao pulled Da Huang's face rudely, Da Huang did not resist, but just narrowed his eyes.

"It's my friend's dog. I'll send it back to her later."

Xue Rui's eyes twitched. Da Huang is only mean to men?
Dahuang had been played with so much that it was unrecognizable, and there was even a small flower stuck on its tail.

However, when Gu Muxue saw Dahuang, she actually shrank back.

"Woof!" Da Huang's nose twitched and he barked at Gu Muxue.

Gu Muxue was startled and quickly hid behind Xue Rui.

"Good dog, stop barking."

Da Huang's mouth was pinched by Xue Yao, and he could only make small whimpering sounds.

"Are you afraid of dogs?" Xue Rui held back her laughter. This was the first time she knew of such a thing.

"I...I don't like dogs." Gu Muxue said with a serious face.

She was bitten by a dog when she was a child.

Once bitten by a snake, one will be afraid of ropes for ten years. She always avoids dogs when she sees them.

"But I have a cat, let me show you." Gu Muxue said with a smile and took out her cell phone from her bag.

An iPhone 4s with cartoon stickers on it.

Xue Yao also came over curiously.

"Eh? Sister Mu Xue, I also had the same stickers as you, but unfortunately I lost them."

Xue Yao felt it was a pity because she really liked that sticker book, but it was out of print in the end.

Xue Rui's mouth twitched, and he thought to himself, that's yours...

But he took it away and gave it to Gu Muxue.

Xue Rui smiled. He didn't expect that this little girl would stick to her phone.

Gu Muxue didn't care about the stickers. She showed them the cat photos she had taken.

"What a cute blue-eyed cat..."

"Yaoyao, this is called a ragdoll cat. Next time I'll bring it out for you to play with."

Xue Rui just took a glance.

Ragdoll cats will be everywhere in the future, but are there any Ragdolls in China at this time?

"How much did you buy this cat?" Xue Rui asked curiously.

The ragdoll cat in the photo is almost perfect in appearance and can be taken to participate in competitions. It would have been extremely expensive at that time in 2012.

"Hmm?" Gu Muxue frowned. She felt that Xue Rui's words were really a downer.

But she still explained: "It's a gift brought back by relatives from abroad."

Xue Rui smiled silently, he was just asking casually.

Because he remembered that Da Huang was worth only five yuan. "Want to go out for a walk? Uncle Gu and my dad are going to drink until late, so we don't have to wait for them." Xue Rui blinked.

Gu Muxue was delighted, she thought so too.

Does this count as a date?

But where to go? Where does Xue Rui usually go?

Her knowledge of Xue Rui only stayed at school.

What is Xue Rui like outside of school?

Gu Muxue, carrying a small shoulder bag, followed Xue Rui nervously, for she was afraid that Mr. Gu would disagree.

"Uncle Gu, Dad, I'll take Mu Xue for a walk around the area."

Xue Rui stuck his head in and greeted a few people.

"It's almost dark..."

Gu Qingshan was about to refuse, but Xue Jianfeng put his arm around his neck and interrupted him, “The child is already this big, can you still lose him?”

Xue Rui nodded and smiled at Zhao Lizhen, then walked out.

Two people and a dog walked out of the restaurant through the back door.

Gu Muxue was a little unhappy. Xue Rui actually brought a dog with him. Was he trying to scare her?
But Xue Rui has always been like this. When he was in elementary school, he liked to catch insects to scare her.

on the street.

There was a bright red sunset cloud in the sky, which made Gu Muxue's face look bright red, making her look even more pure and charming.

Xue Rui couldn't help but look at her a few more times, she was so beautiful.

"Just stroll around the street." Xue Rui said with a smile.

When he came out, he deliberately sent Xue Yao away so that they could be alone.

Moreover, by coming out from the back door, he also avoided the driver of Gu Muxue's family.

It was almost seven o'clock, the evening rush hour, and there was heavy traffic on the road.

Many young couples walked hand in hand on the street, with the girls holding ice cream in their hands and feeding it to the boys from time to time.

Gu Muxue also saw it and thought they were so bold. Aren’t they afraid of being seen by acquaintances?
If you think about it carefully, those couples are already adults and are not afraid of being seen.

She had some expectations in her heart. When she grows up...

Suddenly, Xue Rui held Gu Muxue's little hand and pulled her around in a circle.

To be precise, the position has changed.

Gu Muxue was stunned. What was Xue Rui doing?
Like a child, pulling her around in a circle?
"There are a lot of cars outside. What if one of them runs out of the lane? It's too dangerous." Xue Rui said seriously.

Gu Muxue looked around.

She found that Xue Rui was walking on the outside, with vehicles coming and going on the right side of his body, and he looked very dangerous.

She was suddenly startled. She didn't even realize that she was walking in such a dangerous place.

And now, Xue Rui and she have switched positions.

She stood on Xue Rui's left side, and the traffic was blocked by Xue Rui's body, like a wall protecting her.

"Yeah." Gu Muxue nodded.

She thought Xue Rui was still that naughty and childish little boy.

But after so many years, Xue Rui had unknowingly grown half a head taller than her.

She was also being dragged around in circles, and before it was just a simple teasing.

But now, it's for her safety.

She just felt her heart beating so fast, as if something was about to burst out of her chest...

Gu Muxue didn't notice at all that her little hand was still being held by Xue Rui.

As for Xue Rui, he just wanted to find an excuse to touch Gu Muxue's little hand.

For safety? Of course, that's also the case, but that's just a side note.

Gu Muxue's hands are really soft and smooth, and feel surprisingly good.

He couldn't help but rubbed his thumb a few times.

Gu Muxue felt an itchy sensation on the back of her hand, and then she realized that Xue Rui was taking advantage of her.

She tried hard to pull her hand out, but Xue Rui's grip suddenly tightened and did not let her go.

Gu Muxue frowned and stared at Xue Rui with her big eyes, expressing her dissatisfaction.

Xue Rui also noticed that gaze, but he pretended not to see it.

Gu Muxue was very angry and wanted to pinch Xue Rui.

However, she remembered that she forgot to prepare a gift for Xue Rui...

Gu Muxue's palms gradually relaxed and allowed Xue Rui to pinch them.

"Just ten minutes...consider it as compensation."
