My blind date paper figure rejected me because I was poor, so my dad angrily burned ten trillion.

What do you think?

Ye Wei countered with a question.

Zhang Chen instantly realized what was happening, clutching his pocket like a miser. "Impossible, I have no money!"

Ye Wei was stunned, then chuckled and said sarcastically, "Don't worry, I've investigated your background thoroughly. I wouldn't even look at your 80 cents!"

Zhang Chen immediately breathed a sigh of relief; clearly, his acting skills were not bad.

However, Ye Wei's claim of having investigated clearly doesn't mean she has. Being poor is a thing of the past; now he has the power of money.

Of course, the power of money depends on how it's used, who uses it, and how it's used.

He wasn't going to be stupid enough to just pull out a wad of cash, throw it at her, and say something like, "It's just money, here you go, get lost," like some idiot would.

Besides, given the current state of public security, if we want to show off, we'd have to hire a few bodyguards, right?

Besides, give it to her? I'm too busy.

What is a paper doll? It's a doll, the inflatable kind, just an object.

What human rights are you talking about with an object? It's broken, so what? Who cares?

Oh, of course, some people do care; her owner definitely does.

However, Ye Wei's words made Zhang Chen even more wary.

If it's not for the money, what else could it be for?

He glanced at himself and realized that apart from the trillion in his arms, there was nothing else he could be eyeing... Hmm, could it be that he's attracted to my good looks?

You should know that the city is currently in a state of chaos, and among these dead people, there are quite a few with unusual hobbies. In chaotic times, people are worse off than dogs, let alone ghosts.

So... he didn't run into the nightclub's top salesman again, did he?

Therefore, Zhang Chen looked at Ye Wei with a very strange expression.

"What kind of look is that?"

Ye Wei looked at his strange expression and hadn't reacted yet.

"Even chastity is unacceptable!"

Zhang Chen said something.

Ye Wei was stunned. What kind of weirdo is this guy?

Do you think I'm so free that I need you to do this?

"Don't worry, nobody wants your virginity, I want your youth!"

Ye Wei smiled faintly.

"Why does this sound so familiar? I think I've seen it in a movie!"

Zhang Chen muttered.

"Stop talking nonsense. If you do this well, you'll never have to worry about food or drink, and you won't have to go hungry or eat those alms every day. In fact, if you really succeed, it's not impossible for you to have me!"

As Ye Wei spoke, she puffed out her chest and even showed off her long legs.

Zhang Chen involuntarily swallowed hard.

Ahem! It really wasn't intentional, I've just been vegetarian for too long.

Moreover, to be fair, even though she's a female paper doll, Ye Wei's figure and outfit are so captivating that I wouldn't get tired of her for three days and three nights.

Seeing Zhang Chen's performance, Ye Wei's face lit up even more.

Her tone was incredibly seductive.

"Think about it, what kind of coffin-like house would you live in every day? How oppressive would that be? And what about women... Don't underestimate me just because I'm a woman. If you cherish me, a year shouldn't be a problem. Rather than being poor like this, why not take a chance? What do you think?"

"I think... it's not impossible, but you need to be clear, what do you mean by taking my youth? Are you suggesting I go undercover?"

Zhang Chen asked.

"You've watched too many movies, haven't you? An undercover agent, huh!"

Ye Wei rolled her eyes, glanced around, and said, "This isn't the place to talk. Come with me!"

"Why would I go with you? Come with me, I know this place well!"

Zhang Chen shook his head.

"Are you afraid of me? Look at you, such a coward!"

Ye Wei didn't hold back in her insults either.

Zhang Chen remained unmoved and did not budge.

She tried pulling hard for a long time, but couldn't budge it at all, so she had no choice but to give in and say, "Alright, then you lead the way."

Zhang Chen then walked towards the east side of the street at the entrance of Taipingwu Community.

Ye Wei remained by his arm, never leaving him, which made Zhang Chen both frustrated and furious.

As you walk further out, there are fewer and fewer people, and before long you arrive at a small grove of trees.

Although it's called a grove of trees, it's actually a long strip of trees that forms a long ecological barrier around the Huangquan District.

It's said to have been burned down from above, but it's been there for quite some time.

Moreover, since taking root here, it has been growing naturally and its scale has expanded considerably compared to before.

Many couples like to go here.

Not far away, there are two streets lined with paper dolls, especially at the intersection, which is full of all kinds of paper dolls, making it a major sight in the area.

"Why did you bring me here?"

Ye Wei clearly understood what the surrounding area was, and she couldn't help but frown.

"Of course we need to find a quiet place to talk. This is such a big matter; I need to think it over, and you need to tell me the details too!"

Zhang Chen said.

"What? You still don't want to agree? Should I go find the manager of Night Fragrance Restaurant? I think he'd really like to know the real identity of the person who dined and dashed!"

Ye Wei smiled faintly, her tone carrying a hint of threat.

"Yes, of course I agree. I'm terrified of being poor. I just wanted to talk to you alone and see if I could get an advance on my 'salary'."

When the word "salary" came up, Zhang Chen's gaze lingered on Ye Wei.

Ye Wei instantly understood what his salary meant.

"Do you think I'm stupid? Pay me back?"

Ye Wei's face turned ugly, and she snorted coldly.

"If you can't give me an advance, then I'll stay with you alone and get my leg checked, okay?"

Zhang Chen settled for second best.

Ye Wei laughed.

She must have been single for too long to come up with something like this, just to see legs?

"Alright, consider this a little perk for you!"

Ye Wei relented.

Overjoyed, Zhang Chen pulled her to the edge of the woods, ready to go inside.

But Ye Wei broke free from his hand and had no intention of following him inside.

What if something happens if I actually go in?

Although she is a female paper doll, she doesn't actually have a strong sense of shame, but when she encounters someone who uses force... she still feels a little uncomfortable.

Besides, that's not her goal; he hasn't even agreed yet.

"I'm not going in!"

Zhang Chen scratched his head, looking a little embarrassed.

"Going in is out of the question. Let's talk here. If you agree, I'll take you to see my master!"

Ye Wei said.

"Alright, what does your master want me to do?"

Zhang Chen asked very seriously.

"Borrow a soul!"

Ye Wei uttered two words.

Zhang Chen's heart skipped a beat, but he feigned ignorance. "Aren't we all ghosts? We're all dead, aren't we all souls? Why would we need to borrow another soul?"

"What do you know, you frog in a well? This is just the name of a surgical procedure. My master went to great lengths to secure a spot for me. It's a new medical method that can make you a temporary dream transmitter; it's the latest discovery in medical science!"

Ye Wei looked at him as if he were an idiot.

"Huh, there are hospitals in this world?"

This was the first time Zhang Chen had ever heard of it.

"Nonsense, schools have them, and of course hospitals do too. Can't ghosts get minor ailments like headaches or fevers? Can't ghosts get colds or fevers? Can't ghosts have surgery?"

Ye Wei scoffed; this guy seemed like he'd never seen the world before.
