"Eight thousand. If it works, I'll take it away. If not, forget it."

Looking up, the man's tone was firm, as if he had really given the highest price.

The girl didn't hesitate too much and nodded slightly.

"Sure...but I need to make a copy of the information...please come back tomorrow morning."

In this short sentence, the girl paused twice, which was quite unfluent, as if she hadn't spoken to anyone for a long time.

The man looked at her suspiciously for a while, then frowned to confirm.

"Did you get this computer through a normal channel?"

"Well... there's a receipt..."

"Oh, that's good. Then remember to prepare the invoice for the accessories tomorrow morning."

"Ah."

"Okay, I'll leave first. Is nine o'clock tomorrow morning ok?"

"can."

The girl nodded frugally, made way for the door and watched the man leave.

After the footsteps outside the door completely disappeared, she breathed a sigh of relief and turned around to close the door.

He looked around, dug out a few large cardboard boxes from the corner, then knelt on the ground and slowly sorted out various books related to religion, divination, and super powers.

Until the phone rings.

"Auntie Wang...I want to trouble you with something..."

"I have some packages...If it's possible, I would like you to mail them to my new address..."

"No, I haven't left yet... I may come back, or I may not..."

".....I'll leave next month's rent and a thank you note at the house..."

"Okay, thank you..."

She hung up the phone with a sense of relief. Maybe it was because she had consumed too much energy talking to people continuously, but the girl suddenly felt hungry.

I took out a bucket of the smallest Nissin cup noodles from the box under the computer desk and boiled half a pot of hot water.

Carefully, she poured the boiling water into the noodle bucket and put a book on top. Then she hugged her knees and stared at the words "3-minute cooked soup" on the package in a daze.

Instant noodles don’t taste good, but I have to force myself to eat them in order to stay alive.

Life itself has no meaning. The reason we live is just to save the world.

If it weren't for this, dying might be a better choice...

So, why do I want to save the world?

Why would a world-weary person like me take on the responsibility of saving the world?

The girl tilted her head, and when she thought about these questions again, she was still extremely confused.

But there is a more pressing problem...

The noodles have been incubated for more than three minutes!

With her eyes slightly widened, the girl straightened up hastily, and fumbled to move the book covering the flour bucket, but accidentally knocked the bucket over.

"Wow~"

Under her desperate gaze, the white ramen spilled out, and the soup dripped onto the floor along the edge of the table like a winding river.

Staring blankly at all this, the girl's mood instantly dropped to the lowest point.

As expected, I can't even make a cup of noodles properly. I am really a useless and stupid waste...

Trash like this should die...

Xia Yunian, you only have one last chance today.

If I can't do it well this time, I won't go to Yanjiang anymore. I'll just jump into the river and commit suicide tonight...

"call......"

Taking a deep breath, the girl silently stared at the overturned cup surface, crossing her hands and clasping them together as if praying.

The second hand of the clock behind her suddenly paused, and then quickly reversed.

Chapter 60 Look at the Feet

"So, how are you going to spend the money?"

15pm, on the th floor of Building B, Chunfengli.

For the first time, a pair of white women's sneakers appeared on the small shoe rack at the door, and the pair of pink slippers were already on Qin Wanqing's feet.

The good news is that Qin Wanqing's feet are indeed not big. Lu Chen carefully estimated that they are about 35 cm.

The bad news was that she was wearing a pair of short cotton socks with a cartoon crocodile pattern on them, so there were no tasty feet to eat with her meal.

"I plan to buy some things for my parents, and then take Huangmao to get sterilized."

Lu Chen picked up a piece of lettuce with oyster sauce and answered casually, "Oh, and I also spent thirty yuan to buy a gift for Wang Tianyu."

Qin Wanqing opened her mouth slightly: "Lu Chen, is Wang Tianyu your enemy?"

"No, it's my son."

"Where did you get your son?"

"It's just a term of endearment. He's actually my roommate."

At this point, Lu Chen remembered his plans for tomorrow, and continued:

"By the way, I have things to do all day tomorrow. If you are free, you can come and help walk Huangmao."

"what?"

Qin Wanqing was stunned, and forgot to put down her chopsticks. "What are you going to do tomorrow?"

"I went to school to hand in my graduation thesis in the morning, bought a gift for Wang Tianyu in the afternoon, and celebrated his birthday in the evening."

Lu Chen picked up the plate and put some shredded pork with fish flavor into the bowl. He deliberately concealed the existence of Lu Shuyu, thinking that there was no need to tell Qin Wanqing about this matter.

Although he didn't know whether the latter would be jealous, his man's intuition told him that it was better to mind his own business.

"Anyway, we have to leave early in the morning and will probably be back very late, so you'll have to make dinner by yourself tomorrow night."

"Oh, okay..."

Qin Wanqing nodded, seeming a little regretful, perhaps because she had already planned to do something with Lu Chen tomorrow.

But now that Lu Chen was busy, their date was ruined.

Fortunately, there was still plenty of time left, so she quickly returned to normal, took a small bite of rice, and got back to the topic of money.

"And what about the remaining money? There should be a lot left, right?"

"There are about 40,000 or 50,000 left. I plan to save it."

Lu Chen said indifferently: "I don't have much to spend money on for now, so I'll keep it for now. I might buy a car or something in the future."

"Yeah, I have to save it."

Qin Wanqing was not unhappy because she was not included in Lu Chen's "plan". Instead, she nodded very seriously.

"My mother once said that money is like customers in a restaurant. If there are many customers in a restaurant, then people will think that this restaurant is delicious and will come here to eat. But if there are no customers in the restaurant, then people will not come."

"So the rich will get richer and the poor will get poorer. It's the same principle."

"..."

Wow, our mom is quite wise.

"Our...Auntie is right."

Looking at the serious Qin Wanqing, Lu Chen suddenly remembered something: "Oh, yeah, how much of the 300 yuan I gave you is left? You should have spent most of it, right?"

More than just about right, you already owe me 41 bucks!

No, including today’s food expenses, it’s 48 yuan!

"It's okay, don't worry."

Qin Wanqing murmured against her will: "We can calculate it later..."

"Come on, you've almost got the word 'pay me back' written all over your face."

Lu Chen picked up his phone with a helpless look on his face. Just as he was about to transfer money to Qin Wanqing, his hand was held down by the latter.

"Let's think about it after dinner. Don't do anything else while eating, or you'll lose your appetite."

"......Is this what Auntie said?"

"Ah."

"What else did Auntie say? Do you have any requirements for your son-in-law?"

"As long as you have good character and don't despise me, that's enough..."

"Then do you think I have good character?"

"Let's not talk about whether it's proper or not, can you please let go of my hand first..."

......

"The rice cooker is 168 yuan, and the air fryer is..."

"The zoo ticket is 40 yuan, and the purchase at the supermarket yesterday was 232 yuan. And the retail price of that dozen beers I checked is 50 yuan. If there is a discrepancy between the price you paid and the price you paid, you can tell me..."

"I kept the supermarket receipt, but I didn't bring it with me. I can take a photo for you when I get back. Oh, the payment records for the rice cooker and air fryer are here..."

ten minutes later.

Although they couldn't do anything else while eating, after dinner, as soon as Lu Chen finished washing the dishes, Qin Wanqing immediately pulled him to sit on the sofa and reported in detail their recent expenses.

"Add to that the vegetables and fungus you bought at the market today, and you've already spent all of the 300 yuan you prepaid, and you're still 48 yuan over budget..."

Comrade Xiao Qin glanced secretly at Lu Chen, and at the end of her speech, her voice suddenly became less confident, as if she was afraid that Lu Chen would blame her for spending money too quickly.
