Rebirth 15: I Picked Up a Pure and Innocent Streamer Girlfriend

Su Peixue works in the supermarket every day, watching the money grow rapidly.

I admire Lin Ran more and more.

I was thinking of taking a sack to collect those books and selling them as scrap, but that would be exhausting and I'd probably only earn a hundred or so yuan.

Lin Ran, however, earned nearly 10 yuan.

"This is too much, I can't take so much..."

Su Peixue shook her head like a rattle drum as she looked at the stack of red banknotes that Lin Ran pushed over.

Fatty Sun was practically drooling over the money, but he still returned it.

"Ran-ge, it's too formal to talk about money when helping each other out, isn't it? I've had plenty of drinks, barbecue, and snacks from you this week."

"Enough with the nonsense. Everyone has been working themselves to the bone this week, averaging less than 5 hours of sleep a day. We've been busy with this, so is it fair not to give us a share of the profits?"

Even close brothers need to keep clear accounts. What's ten thousand yuan? It's just a small adjustment period; we'll be earning much more money in the future.

This week, Su Peixue and Fatty Sun were just as tired as Lin Ran. Lin Ran herself earned more than 4 yuan, so it was only natural to give each of them 1 yuan.

"Brother Ran, then I'll gladly accept your offer!" Fatty Sun was extremely excited. He had never received so much money in the past ten years.

"When I get back, I'll make my parents look at me in a completely new light!" Fatty Sun was already imagining a satisfying storyline.

"I think if your parents knew you earned 10,000 yuan, there would only be two outcomes. Either they would make you return the money to me, or they would keep it for you."

Lin Ran's words were like a bucket of cold water poured over Fatty Sun's head. "Then I'll just save it myself."

"Lin Ran, you can keep my money safe from now on."

After saying this, Su Peixue suddenly felt a little embarrassed.

What kind of relationship allows someone to entrust their money to another person for safekeeping? Isn't this only something that happens between partners or spouses?

Thinking of this, her ears turned pink.

But she didn't feel any resistance in her heart. Lin Ran gave her so much money, and she always felt that it was wrong to take it. But if she didn't take it, Lin Ran would sternly look at her and look unhappy.

Su Peixue didn't want to upset him, so she came up with this compromise: let Lin Ran keep her money.

"Well, that's fine. It's a good opportunity to invest in some stocks, and I think I can double my money back then," Lin Ran said.

He wasn't actually an expert on stocks, but the stock market in 2015 was something he would never forget.

The market crashed in mid-June, with thousands of stocks hitting their daily limit down. Experienced stock market investors who went through that year know how terrifying it was.

Even Lin Ran, who has no interest in stocks, remembered it because his mother, Ms. Xu, lost nearly twenty thousand.

Lin Ran has a memory of a speculative stock that defied the market trend and rose for eight consecutive days, so much so that Lin Ran still remembers that stock.

Therefore, this opportunity can be used to double the amount of money in hand and, incidentally, allow Ms. Xu to turn a loss into a profit.

"Brother Ran, didn't you see the news? You still dare to enter the market now? I saw online that a lot of people have gone to the rooftop!" Fatty Sun was very surprised by Lin Ran's decision.

"What do you know? I'm fearful when others are greedy, and I go all in when others are fearful. I've always enjoyed the danger."

Lin Ran said nonchalantly, but then added, "Of course, it's your own money, you can make your own decisions."

Su Peixue immediately said, "I already said it's your responsibility. You can do whatever you want. It doesn't matter if we lose everything."

"Pah, Sister Xue, can't you say something auspicious?" Although Fatty Sun was a little worried, he still decided to listen to Lin Ran.

Lin Ran went to the bank and deposited over 6 yuan into her card. Then she called her mother and asked her to restock the supermarket.

"They've only been restocked for a short time, and the supermarket is already out of stock?"

When Ms. Xu arrived at the supermarket and saw the sales figures, she was shocked!

In the past week, the turnover has actually been equal to the total of the previous two months.

"What's going on? When did our little supermarket become so popular?"

Clearly, this is thanks to the thousands of students who came to the store to buy study materials and made some purchases as a side effect. Snacks and stationery sold out very quickly, and the warehouse is almost empty.

"Perhaps the new sales clerk is too pretty, which has stimulated the customers' desire to buy. You should give her a bonus."

Lin Ran's joke made Su Peixue's pretty face blush.

"Chicken drumsticks aren't enough! Such a pretty girl deserves to be dressed up nicely. Your grades should be out soon, right? You'll be going to school to pick up your report card soon. Auntie ordered a dress for you, and you can pick it up in a couple of days. Look forward to it!"

Although Ms. Xu has been playing mahjong every day this week, she still remembers that her son brought home a girl.

Su Peixue was somewhat flattered.

"You've already paid for the custom-made clothes, so even if you don't want them, you can't return them."

Lin Ran had already anticipated Su Peixue's lines and spoke directly.

Su Peixue swallowed back the words she was about to say.

"Thank you, Auntie."

She said it obediently.

"Mom, please log in to your stock account."

"You little brat, are you trying to pick a fight with me because I've been too nice to you today?" Ms. Xu said with a displeased expression.

She hasn't even logged into her account in the past few days because she's afraid her heart won't be able to take it. Ms. Xu said that if she didn't see it, it wasn't a loss, and if she didn't cut her losses, it wasn't a loss. In any case, she's forcibly not losing money.

"Mom, the first step to overcoming fear is to face it."

At Lin Ran's urging, Ms. Xu also wanted to see how the market was doing these past two days. As soon as she logged in, a screen full of green light rushed straight at her face, making her face look a ghastly green.

"Don't panic, it's just a technical adjustment..."

Ms. Xu covered her eyes and muttered incantations to hypnotize herself.

"I can't take it anymore, I need to play a couple of rounds of mahjong to relax." Ms. Xu took a deep breath and started yo-yoing.

Lin Ran directly operated the account, selling all the stocks Ms. Xu had bought. With over 200,000 yuan left in the account, Lin Ran added the 60,000 yuan from his own card, bringing the total to 300,000 yuan, and used it all to buy that speculative stock.

Two days later, the college entrance examination results were released.

Lin Ran scored 557 points! Wow, it's exactly the same as in my previous life!

Nonsense, isn't it?

To Lin Ran's surprise, Su Peixue also scored 557 points, the exact same as him.

"Which university are you planning to apply to?" Lin Ran asked.

In his previous life, he went to the provincial capital's finance and economics university with Ye Shixuan, but this time he plans to switch schools.

"And you?"

Su Peixue was still in a state of joy.

It wasn't because I did well on the test, but because it was such a coincidence that I got the same score as Lin Ran.

She really wanted to say, "Wherever you go, I'll go."

Lin Ran thought for a moment and said, "How about Luzhou University in Anhui Province?"
