While chatting with Hongye, the notification sound of "cough cough" rang again. Su Yuan looked and was surprised to see that it was the person who had added her as a friend earlier, sending her another message.

"So persistent?" Su Yuan was amazed by the other person's persistence and casually clicked to agree.

Soon, a window popped up: "Wife!"

"Who is your wife?!"

Su Yuan frowned. She hated people who joked around right after adding her as a friend. She found the icon in her friend list and hovered her mouse over it, ready to block him if he continued to talk nonsense!

"It's you, I'm your husband Ye Huang..."

"Uh." Su Yuan was stunned when she saw the other person call himself "Ye Huang." Was it Ye Huang from "Zhu Xian 2"?

She never thought that the "husband" from the game would actually come looking for her. Forming a couple in the game was just a spur-of-the-moment decision; everyone was so carefree, who would take it seriously? But now the situation was strange. If she were still a guy, she could just tell him the truth, and it wouldn't be a big deal since Ye Huang had said he didn't mind.

But the problem was that she was now a girl, and having someone call her "wife" made her very sensitive and somewhat guilty.

"Why aren't you saying anything?"

Su Yuan looked at the screen, not knowing what to say. She touched her nose, leaned back, and sank deeply into the sofa. Her rational side told her that this emotional debt was absurd and needed to be nipped in the bud as soon as possible.

"What should I do?" She propped her chin up, her mind racing. She had spent several thousand yuan of his money in the game, even though he had spent it voluntarily. Ignoring him seemed unreasonable, or it would confirm Hongye's evaluation of her as "heartless and unfeeling."

Several thousand yuan was not a small amount. Su Yuan was a responsible person. If using a cross-dressing account to take advantage of someone for a few thousand yuan was considered responsible, then Su Yuan was definitely a responsible person.

It was unrealistic to expect her to return the money. Once swallowed, it couldn't be spit out. Ye Huang, who was generous, clearly didn't care about such a small amount. Besides, Su Yuan's living expenses were tight, and she had no money to return.

"Actually, I'm a guy..."

After a long time, Su Yuan, unable to bear the inner torment, revealed the truth.

Then she waited for a reply. She thought that even if someone said they didn't mind, no one would really be indifferent to whether their "wife" in real life was a cute girl or a rough man. She even imagined him flying into a rage.

To her surprise, Ye Huang didn't get angry. Instead, he replied, "I can see you're an honest person. If you don't mind, let's be friends."

Ye Huang's image was instantly elevated. Su Yuan, tears streaming down her face, said, "You're such a good person!!"

"!! (vomit)"

"This attitude change is too fast," Su Yuan muttered.

Su Yao: "Hey, how did you get my QQ number?"

Ye Huang: "I asked someone."

Su Yuan's eyes darted, and she knew who the culprit was.

Hongye!!

She quickly brought up the chat window with Hongye and asked bluntly, "Did you give Ye Huang my QQ number?!!"

"Yes, you should thank me!!"

Su Yao: "You jerk, he's coming after me now!!"

Hongye: "Isn't that great? You're a girl, and Ye Huang is rich, handsome, and successful. You should seize the opportunity!!"

Su Yao: "Too late, I told him I'm a guy..."

Hongye: "!!"

Hongye: "Actually, you could give it a try."

Su Yao: "No way."

"Are you going to confront Hongye?" Ye Huang sent a message.

Su Yuan replied, "Of course, giving out my QQ number without my permission, not scolding her is already me being nice."

"Are you not playing 'Zhu Xian 2' anymore?"

"Um, this semester's schedule is tight, and I don't have time to play."

"Coincidentally, I don't have time either. Since you're not playing, I won't play either."

"Don't, you've spent so much money on that account, it would be a waste not to play."

"It's no fun playing without friends. As for the account, find someone to sell it to."

"Ah!" Su Yuan's eyes lit up. Right, an unused account could be sold. Her "Little Fox" account, which had cost her so much, should fetch a good price. Su Yuan felt too poor to let go of any opportunity to make money.

Su Yao: "Are you rich?"

Ye Huang: "?"

Su Yao: "Nothing, you must be a rich second generation."

Spending money in the game was no longer a criterion for identifying rich second generations, but spending several thousand yuan on a random "wife" and not caring about their real-life gender was a clear sign of a rich second generation.

After sending the message, Su Yuan felt a bit uneasy. "Rich second generation" was not a compliment these days, and she didn't want Ye Huang to think she was mocking him. She blinked, trying to think of a way to make amends.

After a while, Ye Huang sent a message: "I'm just a rich second generation who eats and waits to die!"

It seemed Ye Huang wasn't angry at all. Su Yuan laughed, realizing she had worried for nothing.

"Why aren't you saying anything?"

Su Yao: "I'm poor!!" followed by a crying face.

After sending the message, Su Yuan felt a bit awkward. Why had she complained about being poor to him?

If Su Yuan were a girl, based on how Ye Huang treated her in the game, he might even send her money without asking for repayment. But now that he knew she was a guy, that treatment was clearly gone. Men giving money to women was natural, as men wanted to pursue and care for them. But between men, it could only be a loan, and giving without expecting repayment would raise suspicions.

Su Yuan grumbled inwardly. She shouldn't have told Ye Huang she was a "guy." But on the other hand, if Ye Huang gave her money for free, what would that make her? A gold digger?

She chatted a bit more with Hongye and Ye Huang, then told them she had to attend to some business and ended the chat.

Su Yuan really had something to do. She opened a relevant website and started looking for part-time jobs.

Doctor Li said she needed to take the medicine for a while, which immediately made her relatively comfortable living expenses tight.

Increasing income and reducing expenses were the only ways to alleviate the financial crisis. For Su Yuan, reducing expenses was unreliable. A tight budget was not good for her health, and how much could she save in a month? On the other hand, to increase income, if she didn't want to be a gold digger, her only option was to find a part-time job.

There were many part-time jobs listed online, but finding a suitable one was not easy. Su Yuan searched for a long time before finding a job that wasn't too far away and seemed relatively easy.

She nudged Ji Yehao, who was watching a movie.

"What?" Ji Yehao took off his headphones. Seeing Su Yuan browsing part-time job listings, he asked, "Are you planning to work part-time?"

"Yes." She pointed to the job description on the webpage.

"Handing out flyers, that's not bad. You can earn about 70 to 80 yuan a day."

Su Yuan nodded. "Do you think I can handle it? Is handing out flyers tiring?"

Ji Yehao thought for a moment and said, "Not very tiring. You can give it a try. I think you won't be at a disadvantage with your looks." Handing out flyers was also a face job. If the person was a handsome guy or a cute girl, the effect would be better than someone with an average appearance. At least the chances of being rejected would be lower.

With Ji Yehao's support, Su Yuan felt happy and left a message in the other person's email. She thought for a moment, then opened the game forum and posted an ad to sell her "Zhu Xian 2" account.
