What?! All the fairies I topped up have come true?

Looking at the message "Extraction failed" on his phone screen, Lin Xiao couldn't help but shake his head, feeling somewhat helpless about his current situation.

He was so busy standing up for Lin Qishuang that he didn't have time to raise money, which is why he doesn't have enough money when he needs it now.

As an orphan, I didn't know anyone and had no one to ask for money.

As for online loans, Lin Xiao has no assets and cannot obtain loans or collateral.

After much thought, the only person who could possibly help him was the mysterious Qin Yanan.

After all, last time, the other party gave me ten thousand for a broken jade pendant!

Although this mysterious woman is troublesome, the current situation forces us to provoke her even if we don't want to.

At worst, I can just sell the stuff I extract to this woman first.

Having figured this out, Lin Xiao walked out of the room.

I looked up at the room on the second floor; the door was still tightly closed.

Lin Xiao hesitated slightly, unsure whether going to see the other person now would disturb them.

At this point, after several encounters, he had come to realize that Qin Yanan was no ordinary person.

I just don't know why the other person would appear in such a small courtyard in the suburbs?

After shaking his head slightly, Lin Xiao cleared his mind and went straight upstairs.

Although this small courtyard is quiet, it is quite old.

As Lin Xiao walked up the stairs, the stairs couldn't help but creak and groan.

When Lin Xiao finally made it to the second floor and arrived at the other person's door, before he could open it, the door was suddenly opened.

"Hey, Brother Lin?"

Qin Yanan was wearing a red nightgown, and she was lightly covering her cherry-like mouth, as if she had just woken up.

Unwittingly, his glory was exposed.

Upon seeing this, Lin Xiao quickly lowered his head, not daring to look any further.

This woman always seems to have a very unrestrained style whenever we meet.

Lin Xiao, a pure-hearted girl, usually only spouts flowery words. How could she resist such real-world temptations?

He didn't know why, but even when facing Lin Qishuang, he had never been so nervous.

Is it because one is a game and the other is real life?

In short, regardless of the circumstances, Lin Xiao subconsciously began to stammer.

"Miss Qin, I'm so sorry, I didn't know you were still sleeping. I'm sorry to disturb you."

A glint of light flashed in Qin Yanan's eyes, but she showed no reaction whatsoever.

She merely raised an eyebrow, her gaze sweeping over Lin Xiao with interest.

Seeing Lin Xiao's embarrassed expression, she couldn't help but chuckle, her tone slightly teasing, "What's wrong, Brother Lin? It's not like it's the first time we've met, why are you so shy?"

As she spoke, she deliberately turned slightly to the side, released her hand from the corner of her mouth, and leaned lazily against the door frame.

The red pajamas accentuated her shapely figure, exuding charm and allure.

Lin Xiao's heart skipped a beat at the sight, and he lowered his head even further.

"I...I have something important to discuss with you."

Lin Xiao suppressed the panic in his heart and tried to make his tone calm, but there was still a trace of imperceptible unease in his voice.

Seeing this, Qin Yanan put away her teasing expression, softened her tone, and stepped aside to let him in: "Come in and we'll talk. What kind of behavior is it to stand at the door?"

Lin Xiao hesitated for a moment, but still stepped inside.

The room was clean and tidy, and a faint fragrance filled the air.

In stark contrast to Qin Yanan's usual unrestrained demeanor, she exuded a more gentle and refined air.

Apart from the fact that the inner door was tightly closed, it seemed as if some secret was being concealed.

Qin Yanan closed the door, walked to the sofa next to her, sat down, and casually picked up a coat and put it on.

Then, looking at Lin Xiao, who was standing there somewhat reservedly, he smiled and said, "Sit down. Tell me, what important business do you have with me? It's not like you have some treasure to sell me again, is it?"

When the treasure was mentioned, Lin Xiao's eyes lit up at first, but then drooped again.

A hint of helplessness and embarrassment appeared on his face. He slowly sat down in the chair opposite her and sighed, saying:

"Miss Qin, to be honest, I do have a treasure, but I can't produce it right now. I'm asking you to lend me some money to get it back."

"Borrow money?"

A glint of shrewdness flashed in Qin Yanan's eyes, and she then looked him over with interest, saying, "Young Master Lin doesn't seem like someone who's short of money?"

This was Qin Yanan's honest opinion, but she also had some doubts.

The things this person casually took out were all valuable treasures, but the other party didn't seem to care about them at all.

Last time, I tested the waters and bought the dragon-patterned jade pendant from the other party for the low price of 10,000 yuan.

As a result, this person gave him the dragon-patterned jade pendant, which had been appraised and was worth at least one million, without any hesitation.

How could someone like that lack money?

Or does the other party want to borrow a large sum of money?

However, my authority only allows me to approve a maximum of 50 million.

If there's anything more, we'll have to ask our superiors.

Since this person in front of me is willing to ask, the amount of money he borrows must be substantial.

Thinking of this, Qin Yanan immediately stopped laughing, sat up straight, and looked at Lin Xiao, saying, "Brother Lin, how much money do you want to borrow?"

Lin Xiao's face flushed, and he scratched his head somewhat embarrassedly before finally extending one finger.

"One hundred million?!"

Upon seeing the other person's outstretched finger, Qin Yanan immediately frowned and her red lips parted slightly.

I was right after all. A master who can give away treasures so casually must be quite generous when he asks for them.

Meanwhile, Lin Xiao looked at Qin Yanan, who seemed somewhat troubled, with a puzzled expression.

He only wanted to borrow 10,000 yuan. This woman was able to spend 10,000 yuan to buy a broken jade pendant last time, so why is it so difficult for her to borrow 10,000 yuan now?

Or is it that the other party doesn't trust you?

But thinking about it, it makes sense. Although they are neighbors living on different floors, they have only met a few times in total.

Putting yourself in Lin Xiao's shoes, you wouldn't trust yourself either.

In the Azure Dragon Kingdom today, there are quite a few deadbeats who refuse to pay their debts.

The other party may not be short of money, but they won't waste it.

It seems I still have to mortgage something.

Thinking of this, Lin Xiao took out the three Thunder Talismans that were left over.

He hadn't found any use for this rune since he extracted it.

However, after a long period of research, it was found to have no other special effects.

Aside from its realistic appearance, it's utterly useless.

This woman is interested in antiques, so she might also be interested in these runes.

After all, the woman had shown great interest in the runes when she entered his room last time.

However, at the time, I didn't give the other person a chance to look closely.

Lin Xiao took out the three runes and placed them directly on the table beside him before continuing:

"It's understandable that Miss Qin doesn't trust me. I obtained these three runes by chance. I wonder if Miss Qin would be interested?"
