Star Tycoon

Chapter 4 Locked
The two quickly loaded all the books in the house into the car.

Zhang Shuya took a few clothes from her younger sister's room and put them in a box. She then checked the quilts and closets for hidden money and packed away anything that looked valuable or useful.

"You go out first, I'll come find you later."

After Zhang Shuya finished speaking, she went back to continue packing her things, taking everything she needed to bring.

Tian Ersan glanced at the books and exam papers filling the tricycle, then at the woman who had already gone back into the house, and quickly followed her inside.

Standing at the doorway of the inner room, watching the young woman packing her things on the bed, Tian Ersan asked curiously, "Aren't you afraid I'll pack up my things and run away and never come back?"

Zhang Shuya was frantically packing her things when she heard this and burst out laughing, laughing very happily.

Tian Ersan also realized what was happening and looked at the beautiful woman, "I was just kidding, those few pounds of tattered books are nothing compared to your treasure."

This dilapidated house isn't worth much. This beautiful married woman is even willing to sacrifice herself to live with him. Only someone with a screw loose would think of running away with a bunch of scraps of paper.

Zhang Shuya was no longer nervous and realized that there was nothing to pack up, since they were all worthless things anyway.

Just as I was about to speak, an old woman walked in from outside.

"Hey ragpicker, are you done yet? Why are you taking so long?"

Tian Ersan quickly went out and called to the old woman who walked from the gate into the yard, "You can go back and wait. I'll come to collect it later. The cart is full, so I have to go back first."

When the old woman came in, Tian Ersan had already come out.

As Tian Ersan spoke, he pushed the cart outside and said to the old woman who was still trying to come back in, "How much of that cardboard do you have? It's not worth coming back if you have too little."

The old woman followed them out and said, "Quite a few, over ten kilograms."

Tian Ersan reminded him, "Then you can tie them together. I'll come over, load them up, and pay you. I'll know how many pounds they are just by weighing them."

"Okay!" Upon hearing this, the old lady quickly went back to add water to the cardboard without needing to investigate further.

The noise outside quickly subsided. Zhang Shuya gathered her clothes, phone, and ID card, and carefully walked out.

Seeing that the old woman was not there and there was no one else watching, Zhang Shuya quickly locked the door and walked out.

Tian Ersan was pedaling his tricycle home when, less than a minute after leaving the alley, the vehicle suddenly felt heavy.

Turning his head, he saw the young woman sitting sideways on the tricycle, holding her bag in both hands, looking at him shyly but with a smile.

Well, the junk collector ended up with a secondhand young woman who can get on the bus by herself.

"Don't sit down, it's not good if someone sees you. Pretend to go to the store to buy something, that way no one will suspect anything. Otherwise, people will know that you ran away with a junk collector."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Shuya quickly came downstairs. "Yes, we have to be careful. Those debt collectors are all scoundrels. We have to be careful."

Zhang Shuya breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that having a man was great, as he could help with anything.

Tian Ersan simply didn't want to put in the effort of pedaling the tricycle anymore.

After the woman got out of the car, things definitely felt much easier.

Tian Ersan returned home safely, quickly opened the door of the convenience store, and took out the clothes and books from the tricycle and carried them inside.

It's such a waste to sell high school girls' exercise books, test papers, and notebooks as waste paper.

I'm sure those rich anime fans in the group would be willing to spend 100 yuan to buy a real high school girl's notebook.

Tian Ersan moved all the books and materials, which could only be sold as waste paper for a little over twenty yuan, to the ground near his computer desk and piled them up.

Not long after, Zhang Shuya walked in.

Looking at the small shop, Zhang Shuya asked curiously, "Do you really live alone in your house?"

"Really, go inside and take a look. Now there are two of us, including you." Tian Ersan was busy moving things and didn't have time to pay attention to her.

Zhang Shuya quickly went inside to take a look and found that the rooms on the first floor were very messy and uninhabitable.

When we went up to the second floor, we found that the environment was much better.

Although it's not as nice as my own home, I can tidy it up and make it a place I can live in.

Now that she had no money and dared not hide at her relatives' houses, she was just hoping someone would take her in and feed her; nothing else mattered. Zhang Shuya quickly put her clothes and belongings where it was clearly Tian Ersan's bed, and then went downstairs.

"I have nothing left at home. I'll call my sister later and tell her to come over as soon as she finishes her exams. She won't be going home."

Tian Ersan felt very hot, and looked at the simply dressed but sexy young woman.

"How can you be so comfortable letting your sister come and stay? Aren't you afraid I'll do something to her?"

Tian Ersan felt that this woman was too trusting; the two had only known each other for less than half an hour.

Zhang Shuya smiled and said, "You don't seem like a bad person. My sister is also beautiful. You seem like an honest person. It would be good for you to be with my cousin."

Tian Ersan found it even more ridiculous.

"I'm honest? I deliberately touched your chest just now."

Zhang Shuya said irritably, "I knew you wouldn't be honest! But it's good this way, being honest makes you easy to be bullied, young people need to be quick-witted!"

The beautiful young woman didn't mind what had just happened at all. Looking around, she decided to stay, even though the place was dilapidated.

Tian Ersan frowned, a thoughtful expression on his face.

Seeing that Tian Ersan had become serious, Zhang Shuya became a little nervous. "What's wrong? I didn't say anything, just give me some face in front of my sister, I don't care about anything else."

After Zhang Shuya finished speaking, she sat down next to Tian Ersan. The two were more than ten years apart in age. Zhang Shuya took the initiative to get closer to Tian Ersan, and now she was taking the initiative in order to stay.

Tian Ersan glanced at the woman and asked, "What trouble have you gotten into? Why are you in such a hurry to hide here?"

When the small head gets excited, the big head becomes even calmer.

Zhang Shuya quickly said, "It really is about debts, but those guys are all thugs. They even said they know people. A while ago, they sold my husband's land and house in his hometown. No one in my family or the village dares to say anything. I'm afraid something will happen to my sister and me, so I'm looking for a place to hide for a while before we talk about it."

Tian Ersan has already taken on this task, and now it definitely needs to be resolved.

"Go upstairs and rest. Don't stay here, or people will see you. I'll go collect that old woman's junk and gather some information. I'll pick your sister up after the exam this afternoon."

Zhang Shuya breathed a sigh of relief. "Okay! Thank you for your help. What is your surname?"

The two of them still don't know each other and don't even know each other's names.

Tian Ersan quickly said in an annoyed tone, "My name is Tian Ersan. Show me your ID card so I can see it. Seeing is believing."

"It's upstairs, I'll get it for you." Zhang Shuya quickly turned and went upstairs.

Tian Ersan was so hot that he quickly carried the tricycle into the house, closed the door, and ran upstairs.

Just as Zhang Shuya was about to go downstairs to show her ID card to Tian Ersan, she saw Tian Ersan come upstairs.

"Here you go. I'm telling the truth. Ask my sister when she gets here. If I'm lying, may I die a horrible death!"

Tian Ersan quickly reached out and covered Zhang Shuya's mouth, "No need to say anything, I believe you."

Tian Ersan glanced at the age on the ID card, then quickly removed his other hand from Zhang Shuya's mouth and naturally put his arm around the woman born in 1982.

"If you want to live here, you have to listen to me. Even though I'm young, this family has to listen to me."

Zhang Shuya thought it meant they were going to do *that* kind of thing, and with a mature woman's smile, she said, "Okay, whatever you want me to do, I'll do."

Tian Ersan put Zhang Shuya's ID card into his pocket and said, "Give me your phone."

Zhang Shuya took her phone out of her pocket. "I'm out of credit."

"I'll charge it for you," Tian Ersan said with a smile. "Come inside and take off your clothes!"

"Hmm..." Zhang Shuya entered the room full of anticipation and quickly took off her clothes.

Tian Ersan quickly applied for an online loan for her!

At noon, Tian Ersan gave Zhang Shuya a few packets of expired instant noodles and expired drinks, and then went off to make money again.
