Hancheng: There is a door between me and the future

Chapter 5 I Want You to Help Me Conquer Your Future Self

Rooftop.

When Jessica heard Lin Xiuyuan's first words, she straightened her back instantly while leaning on the railing, her eyes widened, obviously in disbelief.

The next two sentences are quite normal. Fashion brands are what she cares about most, and her identity as a singer is also an inseparable part of her.

However, as the next few sentences unfold, the plot takes another turn.

Jessica was completely stunned. She exclaimed, "Impossible! I'm not stupid enough to be cheated out of so much money. And Xiujing can't possibly be like you said because of me. You're lying to me."

Putting down his phone, Lin Xiuyuan turned around, leaned against the railing, and smiled, "Indeed, the final outcome of the matter was influenced by many factors. But the source of the unquestionable controversy across the internet is undoubtedly your withdrawal from the group."

Jessica frowned and stared at Lin Xiuyuan, while he shrugged easily.

After a while, Jessica held out her hand, "Give it to me, I can see for myself."

"What are you dreaming of? I've given you all the information, so how can I control you?"

Lin Xiuyuan shook his head and turned off his phone.

Although he has no plan, it doesn't mean he has no brains.

Jessica, hearing this answer, became increasingly emotional due to the content of the previous messages. She bit her lower lip and glanced at the night scene below. "Even if you don't give it to me now, it won't stop me from looking for a place to check, unless you tie me up, unless you want to do that."

"No, I won't do anything like kidnapping. But if you dare to step out of this villa before we reach an agreement, I will go back to my past and work hard for a few years and never come here again."

Even as he said these words that frightened Jessica, Lin Xiuyuan remained nonchalant. "Whether you get sliced ​​into pieces or chaos breaks out in the old time and space, it has nothing to do with me. Anyway, with this information, I can slowly live a good life in the old time and space."

"Then why did you call me over here?"

Jessica, who had been repeatedly baited by the man in front of her, finally couldn't stand it anymore. She was obviously a little mentally broken. Then she growled, expressing her anger and confusion, "Besides, the surveillance camera saw me coming into the room with you. There's no way you can get away with it."

"Who will judge me if there is no evidence?"

For some reason, when he said this, Lin Xiuyuan suddenly felt a chill running down his spine to the back of his head.

All the pores in my body opened up instantly, and an indescribable feeling of comfort, which I experienced for the first time in my life, enveloped my whole body.

"you……"

Jessica wanted to say something more and wanted to continue to refute, but suddenly she was at a loss for words.

Fortunately, Lin Xiuyuan, who has lived in the red land since childhood, has no criminal genes, but has a bit of rebellious character.

So when he saw Jessica was frightened, he immediately smiled and said, "Don't be so nervous. I just said that I want a win-win cooperation, not to be a criminal."

At the same time, Jessica also remembered what Lin Xiuyuan had said before, so she quickly spoke, "How can we cooperate? Can I pay for the information? Any amount is fine, just name the amount, as long as I can afford it."

"Of course I want the money, but my cooperation with you isn't just about the money. There's another condition."

"What conditions."

Jessica almost blurted it out, fearing that Lin Xiuyuan would go back on his word.

Looking at Jessica in front of him, Lin Xiuyuan remembered an idea that suddenly came to his mind in the afternoon, but he did not tell her directly. Instead, he introduced to her again the differences between the two time and space.

"You know, Jessica, apart from the differences I told you earlier, the two timescales are basically the same, whether it's the people, the companies, or the global situation."

“So my past problems were my first pot of gold, and then I can completely rely on future information to snowball.

"But the problem here is every penny, because the money you give can only be used in the old time and space, and I don't even have a job here. So the problem arises, how should I live here?" Jessica, holding the empty can in her hand, felt that there was not enough wine to drink for the first time, but she still listened carefully to Lin Xiuyuan's words.

After he finished speaking, she frowned and made a suggestion, "Didn't you say before that the gold exchange rate in the two time periods is different? You can buy and sell more, and then become rich all at once. I can give you money."

"Suddenly, a large private gold transaction has occurred. Jessica, it seems you really want to send me to the police station or research institute."

Jessica was silent for a moment, then continued, "Then do it little by little."

"No, just like above, the Internet and big data will be more advanced than you can imagine in ten years."

"This doesn't work, and that doesn't work either. What should I do? I don't know anything about this place, and I really can't think of any solution."

After her proposals were rejected several times, Jessica took the opportunity to complain and also revealed her own little thoughts.

If you want to help yourself and want to cooperate for mutual benefit, you must at least learn more about the future time and space.

At this time, Lin Xiuyuan finally told the other party his other idea, "It's not that there is no solution, I just need your help. Otherwise, I wouldn't come to you."

"How do you want me to help you?" Jessica said.

"It's simple. I want you to help me conquer your future self."

"what?"

……

……

2025 spring.

The streets of Seoul are filled with the faint fragrance of flowers, and there is a slight coolness in the air.

And on a warm afternoon, the spring scenery is just right.

On a corner of the street, in a low-key and elegant coffee shop, young people wearing light jackets sit leisurely in the sun enjoying the aroma of coffee.

But soon, the cafe welcomed a long-awaited highlight.

Former Girls' Generation member Jessica and her sister Krystal gently pushed open the door and stepped into this quiet space.

Their appearance did not cause much noise, but naturally attracted a lot of attention.

Jessica wore a simple white shirt and high-waisted jeans, which was elegant yet casual, like a bright spot in the spring breeze.

Krystal wore a gentle pink coat and had a quiet temperament. The two sisters seemed to be the most beautiful scenery in the city.

As soon as they sat down, Krystal looked at her elder sister and smiled, "Ouni, why are you in such a good mood today? You asked me out for afternoon tea. It's been a while since we last saw each other."

"I do have something to ask you."

Compared to Krystal's casual and natural demeanor, Jessica, who was sitting across from her, seemed a bit distracted. After ordering two coffees, she unlocked her phone, opened a text message, and pushed it in front of her.

"Xiujing, please help me check when I wrote this IOU."
