"No, my sister makes money easily. She just goes to the restaurant to play the piano for a few hours a day. She can take a break in the middle of the day and still make 50,000 yuan a month."
When it comes to this, Bai Linling becomes excited and keeps refuting.
"And the little chinchilla my sister adopted, she spends way more money on it every month than I do. I think my sister is tired of raising me and doesn't like me anymore."
"Ah? How can animals be compared with humans? Your sister is indeed wrong in this regard."
Chen Yuan fanned the flames in a very covert way, and then asked tentatively.
"Then Ling'er, why are you out here alone now?"
"Forehead……"
When the words came to her lips, Bai Linling changed her mind instantly.
"My sister is so mean. I just complained that I had no appetite and she kicked me out."
"That's really bad."
Then, under Bai Linling's expectant gaze, Sister Chen Yuan made an invitation to her.
"You have nowhere to go now, why don't you come to my house?"
"Really? Okay, okay."
Bai Linling immediately happily hugged Chen Yuan's arm and agreed.
"Let's go then."
"Hmm."
Bai Linling was not worried about her own safety. Not to mention whether Sister Chen Yuan, who was so good to her and her sister, would do anything bad, but she had Sister Bei protecting her behind her. She could wander around City A as she pleased, as long as she didn't offend anyone too powerful. Nothing would happen to her. This was something that had been deeply rooted in her mind over the past few years.
--------
"Sister Chen Yuan, are you living here? You don't live in your original place anymore?"
Bai Linling followed Chen Yuan to where people lived. She thought she would return to the neighborhood where she lived five years ago, but she ended up in an ordinary, older neighborhood. The security was not particularly good, with only a few tall and thin security guards. The environment was completely different from her own home.
"Yes, five years ago, the rent there increased too fast. With my salary, I couldn't afford it anymore, so I had no choice but to move here."
Chen Yuan didn't seem to care. She was used to living there anyway. As long as she paid the property management fee and the protection fee from the nearby Liu family gang, there would be no problem. Compared to spending more money for better property security, paying protection fees from the underworld was more economical.
After entering the apartment building and going up the stairs, you will soon arrive at Chen Yuan’s small residence, which is a house with a usable area of 40 square meters. It can be considered a luxury for one person to live in it.
It has a living room, a bathroom and a bedroom. As the lease is for an extremely long term, Chen Yuan converted the original kitchen into a cloakroom to store her large amount of clothes.
Bai Linling smelled some complex odors as soon as she entered the room. She took a closer look and found that it was coming from the leftover takeout on the coffee table in the living room, and there were some unwashed clothes piled in a corner of the sofa.
"Sister Chen Yuan, what are you doing..."
"This is what you see. I don't have time to clean it, and when I do have time I'm too lazy to clean it, so it becomes like this after a while."
"I can only come back to rest during the day shift, and then tomorrow afternoon at 5 or 6, I have to go back to work the night shift until 7 or 8 in the morning. It's like this, my work and rest schedule is messed up."
Chen Yuan walked into the bathroom to remove her makeup while complaining, "Plus, sometimes I have to work all day and all night when I'm busy. Every time I get home, I fall asleep immediately. How can I have time to clean?"
"At most, I'll clean up the garbage and throw it away on a whim."
"That's it..."
Bai Linling was a little curious about Sister Chen Yuan's job.
"So what kind of job do you do, Sister Chen Yuan?"
"What kind of job? It's being a dealer in a casino. The salary is high and there's also a commission."
The dealer in the casino?
Bai Linling suddenly understood something. No wonder Sister Chen Yuan always had a strange temperament. It turned out to be this kind of job.
"But Sister Chen Yuan, didn't you work as a nurse in the hospital before?"
When Chen Yuan came out after removing her makeup, she heard Ling'er's words. She was obviously stunned for a moment, then spread her hands indifferently and naturally.
“The salary for being a nurse is too low.”
"That's it."
With such a strong reason, Bai Linling didn't know how to respond for a moment. She looked around the messy living room for a moment before she reluctantly found a clean empty sofa to sit on, and then casually said something.
"Is Sister Chen Yuan really short of money?"
"Of course it is missing."
Chen Yuan didn't seem disgusted at all. He just sat down on the pile of dirty clothes and replied with a wry smile.
"My dad has cancer, and it costs a lot of money. We are very short of money, very short of money."

Chapter 22 Heavy Rain
"Where on earth did this child go? Why hasn't he come back yet?"
Bai Yaoyao finished her meal, cleared the table, and even took a shower. She sat stupidly in the living room waiting for a while, but he still didn't come.
"It's already past nine o'clock."
After listening to the voice broadcast on the elderly phone, Bai Yaoyao became even more worried.
"No, we still have to go out and look for her. This little girl might have gone to that internet cafe to play again. She must be taught a lesson."
Bai Yaoyao got up, packed up, changed into a conservative outfit of long sleeves and long pants, then took a bag specially used to carry Xinxin, went to the bedroom, reached out and pulled Xinxin, who was curled up in her quilt, into her arms.
Finally, I took some money, turned on the flashlight function of my mobile phone, took my keys and went out.
"This girl, didn't she just say a few words? She even ran away from home."
Bai Yaoyao also didn't understand the rebellious period of children that was often mentioned on the Internet in her previous life. She didn't even have parents at the time, so who could she rebel against? But there was indeed a period of time when her temper was difficult to control.
"Alas, this is my first time taking care of a child, so I don't know much about this."
Thinking in his mind whether he should speak more gently to the little girl next time, he soon arrived at the Internet cafe that Lingbao often visited.
"She has no money, so she should come here, right?"
Bai Yaoyao felt inexplicably nervous. After asking the network administrator and learning that the little girl did not come, her heart skipped a beat.
He really didn’t come.
As for whether the network administrator would lie to her, that is impossible. After all, strictly speaking, this Internet cafe is still under the control of the Bei family's underworld forces.
Besides, who will pay if she is cheated?
No matter what, in the final analysis, Bai Yaoyao still couldn't see clearly. She couldn't stare at the faces of every customer surfing the Internet in the Internet cafe for a long time.
"Where on earth did this little bitch go?"
Bai Yaoyao walked carefully on the road with a flashlight, and at the same time began to wonder where Ling'er had gone.
"Boom, boom, boom..."
After a while, there were sudden thunders in the sky, and some small raindrops began to fall from the sky and hit the ground.
"Oh no, it's going to rain. I have to go home first."
Hearing the thunder, Bai Yaoyao turned around and rushed home without hesitation.
"Don't make it rain too hard."
I don’t know if it’s because she set a flag, but as soon as Bai Yaoyao finished speaking, raindrops as big as beans fell on her head. The sudden downpour instantly soaked her like a drowned rat.
"Damn it, system, you're not going to mess with me again because you think I'm having such a good time, are you?"
Bai Yaoyao's first reaction was that the system or the gods were going to cause trouble again and make her, the redeemer, look a bit like a criminal.
"Huh, huh."
Bai Yaoyao, who couldn't see the road, gasped and rushed into the nearest eaves to shelter from the rain.
"There's no store nearby, so I can't buy an umbrella."
Bai Yaoyao used the light of the flashlight to take a look at the place where she was sheltering from the rain. She saw a row of shop doors that had been closed for who knows how long. She reached out her hand and touched them, and there was still a thick layer of dust.
"Xinxin didn't get wet, did she?"
Suddenly I thought of the little chinchilla in my arms and quickly opened my bag to check.
"Phew~ Fortunately, my hair is not wet."
Bai Yaoyao breathed a sigh of relief. Animals with a lot of hair like cats and dogs would easily get sick once they got wet, not to mention chinchillas, which have several times more pores than cats and dogs. Once they get soaked, it would be a disaster.
He reached out to smooth Xinxin's fur, pulled at her wet clothes, and looked at the pouring rain outside with a look of worry.
"How should I get home? I don't know where Ling'er is. Don't let her catch a cold."
------------
"My mom divorced my dad when I was young. I don't have any memory of my mom at all. My dad raised me little by little. Now my dad is sick, and I must get him cured. I can't give up."
After Chen Yuan finished speaking, he paused for a moment, then picked up the water cup and took a sip to moisten his body, and his face looked much more relieved.
"That's about it. I won't give up anyway. I'll get treatment even if I have to borrow money."
“That’s too difficult…”
Bai Linling felt mixed emotions. Chen Yuan's father was clearly in the late stage of cancer and could not be cured, but he still tried his best to treat him, even if it meant taking on a huge debt...
"Hey, it's not that difficult. I just need to work harder now and at least I can afford the medical expenses at the hospital. I had to take out a loan before."
When saying the last sentence, Chen Yuan picked up the garbage on the table and poured it into a big garbage bag, hiding the expression on his face that he almost couldn't control.
"If it weren't for the loan, I wouldn't have ended up in this situation." This is what Chen Yuan really thought.
"Sister Chen Yuan, let me help you."
Bai Linling, who rarely did housework at home, saw Chen Yuan start cleaning and immediately stood up to help.
"It's okay, Ling'er, just sit here. How can a guest clean the place?"
Chen Yuan quickly threw all the garbage on the table into an extra-large garbage bag, then picked up all the dirty clothes, sorted them hastily and threw them into the washing machine, then opened the window to dissipate the smell.
"Huo, it's raining heavily, Ling'er, do you still want to go back?"
"Ah, it's raining?"
Bai Linling hurried over and saw that it was indeed raining, and it was raining very heavily.
"Do you still want to go back? It seems like the situation is a bit difficult."
"This……"
Bai Linling was a little panicked. If she didn't go home all night, her sister would definitely worry about her.
"I'll wait a little longer, and then leave when the rain stops."
I stayed at Sister Chen Yuan's house for a while and chatted with her. As a result, the rain got heavier and heavier, and it was already half past ten.
"Why don't you just sleep here with me? It looks like the rain will last all night."
"Well, okay then."
Bai Linling hesitated for a moment and looked out the window. There was still no sign of the rain stopping. After thinking it over, she agreed.
"Then I'll trouble Sister Chen Yuan. I'll call her and let her know."
"Well, go ahead. The rainy weather is a lot cooler and it's very comfortable to sleep in the living room."
Bai Linling nodded in response, then took out her cell phone and called her sister, only to be notified that the phone was turned off.
"Sister, your phone is turned off?"
Bai Linling was stunned for a moment, and then she instantly thought that her sister was angry with her, because the battery of elderly phones is very strong. Before dinner, she saw that her sister's phone was just fully charged, so it was impossible for it to be out of power.
"Forget it, my sister is so indifferent, I don't want to go back yet."
