Chapter 48

"Ye Hao, help!"

"Alright, alright, you two calm down." Ji Ye Hao said with a smile, as if he were an amused onlooker.

After the fight, Su Yuan looked dejected and gloomy, "Don't worry, Gao Jun, I won't compete with you for Sister Xia. I only see her as a sister."

Seeing Su Yuan's despondent expression, Ji Ye Hao and Gao Jun felt a lump in their throats, as if they had deprived her of the right to love. It seemed something was off, could it be that Su Yuan actually had feelings for Lin Fei?

Ji Ye Hao walked over and patted Su Yuan's thin shoulder, "Su Yuan, how about I introduce you to a girlfriend?"

"You introduce me?" Su Yuan's eyes widened.

"Sure, I'll pick someone good for you."

Su Yuan felt both angry and amused, and punched him, "You should think about yourself first. I find it strange, you're so handsome, how come you've never had a girlfriend?"

"I didn't want one, so I didn't have one," Ji Ye Hao said calmly, then smiled, "So you finally admit I'm handsomer than you?"

"Tch, you're fat and out of breath. You are handsome, but compared to me, you're still a bit lacking."

Gao Jun nodded in agreement, "I think Su Yuan's words are quite objective. Ye Hao, you're not as charming as Su Yuan. Don't be不服 (unconvinced), you can only attract girls' attention, but Su Yuan is different. She's the type that appeals to both men and women, and her appeal is fundamentally different from yours."

"Gao Jun, you're dead!!"

Su Yuan's eyes flashed with a fierce light.

Gao Jun shrank back and quickly ran out of the room.

...

It was already past nine when they returned to the dormitory from Xia Lin Fei's place.

Although Su Yuan had drunk some alcohol, she was still relatively sober. She turned on her computer and logged in, surprised to find that the post she had been hanging for over two weeks finally had a reply.

Are there many rich people in the world? The answer is yes. Are there many tycoons? The number is certainly not small. What is a tycoon? A tycoon is a rich person with so much money that they can spend it freely.

Although tycoons are often criticized for their extravagant spending, how many people envy them? Probably every loser has two ultimate wishes: one is to become a tycoon themselves, and the other is to be a tycoon's friend.

If the tycoon is a woman and also good-looking, she is known as a "white, rich, and beautiful" woman.

Su Yuan's "Little Fox" account had been up for sale for a long time without any interest, but today, a "Gentleman" was willing to pay 3000 RMB to buy it. It was like finding a way out when you thought there was no hope. If the buyer had hesitated a bit longer, Su Yuan would have been tempted to lower the price.

But now, since he was willing to pay 3000 RMB, he might also be willing to pay 5000. This is called "Jiang Taigong fishing, the willing take the bait." Money is no longer just money to them, but a simple symbol.

However, whether the buyer would really be willing to pay 5000 RMB for a used game account was still questionable. But it didn't stop Su Yuan from trying. If the buyer agreed, she would make an extra 2000 RMB! Even if he refused, she could still sell it for 3000 RMB.

Either way, it was a profit!

Taking advantage of the alcohol, Su Yuan grinned and told the buyer about the price increase.

After a moment, the buyer surprisingly agreed. Su Yuan provided her bank account number and soon received a notification of a successful transfer.

It worked!!

She opened her eyes in disbelief and hurriedly gave the buyer the account and security information. Honesty is important, and she had no reason to deceive him, even if he might be a fool.

After completing the transaction, Su Yuan had 5000 RMB in her account, which greatly alleviated her financial crisis, and her mood naturally improved. As the saying goes, "Money gives courage, and clothes give dignity." While money isn't everything, not having money is a big problem. Some people think money is the root of all evil, but try living without it and see how it feels.

Su Yuan, who had deeply felt the pain of being broke, could only say to them: "You're just talking without feeling the pain!" If one day you really have no money, even a gentleman might commit heinous crimes.

Looking at the time, it was almost ten. Su Yuan decided to go to bed early and get up early the next day. But just then, she saw a familiar QQ icon flashing in the lower right corner. It was Hong Ye!

Hong Ye: "Su Yao!"

Su Yao: "What's up?"

"Let's video chat..."

"..."

"Remember, we agreed last time, hurry up!!!"

Su Yuan hesitated, should she video chat with her? Last time, Hong Ye wanted to video chat, but Su Yuan had excused herself by saying she was at an internet cafe and promised to do it later when she was back in the dorm.

"Are you at an internet cafe again?"

"Not this time."

"Then let's video chat!!"

"Alright."

Su Yuan thought about it. She couldn't avoid it forever, and since Hong Ye had repeatedly requested it, she decided to go ahead. But she needed to prepare. She took a selfie with her phone, fixed her hair, and thought she looked fresh and presentable.

"Ye Hao, Gao Jun, I'm going to video chat with a friend, so don't make any noise."

She put on her headphones and clicked to accept the video chat request. Soon, she saw a neat room on the screen, but no sign of Hong Ye.

"Hey, where are you?"

"Just a moment, I'm putting on my headphones." A gentle and pleasant voice came through the headphones, and soon a girl in a white round-necked casual shirt appeared on the screen.

Hong Ye was about 24 or 25, more mature-looking than Su Yuan. She seemed to have just entered the workforce but still retained a hint of student-like charm, probably having graduated not long ago.

Hong Ye also saw Su Yuan on the screen and was surprised. Short hair, delicate features, a fringe slightly covering one eye, the other eye particularly bright, wearing a light purple top, with a round and cute neck, she was a girl who made you want to pounce and bite her.

"Wow, Su Yao, you're so cute!!!"

Su Yuan remained calm and politely filtered out the compliments. She smiled and said, "You're the first net friend I've video chatted with."

"Really? Then I'm so honored!"

Hong Ye was a chatterbox, and Su Yuan mostly listened to her, occasionally nodding and agreeing. From the conversation, Su Yuan learned that Hong Ye worked at a hospital in Binhe City. She was a new doctor, still in the probationary period, and her work was more like that of a nurse, which made her quite disappointed.

Su Yuan didn't know how to comfort her. Starting any job is always difficult, and being a doctor was still a highly respected profession.

"Su Yao, we're in the same city, what a coincidence. Since we've video chatted, how about we meet in person sometime?"

Hong Ye usually wouldn't meet net friends, as most of them would ask her out, not to be friends but to hook up. She hated those who played with people's feelings!

This time, she initiated the meeting because the person was Su Yao, a cute girl, not one of those guys with ulterior motives. Hong Ye also wanted to make more good friends and had a strong liking for Su Yao.

"Meet in person?" Su Yuan was surprised. She didn't expect Hong Ye to suggest meeting in person.

"Yes, if you're free, how about we meet the day after tomorrow morning?"

The day after tomorrow was September 26th, a Wednesday, and Su Yuan was free. With her body changing, she realized she needed to buy some new clothes. Now that she had some extra money, she didn't want to delay. Since she was going out and knew nothing about buying clothes, why not let Hong Ye help?

After thinking about it, Su Yuan agreed, "Sure, I was planning to buy some clothes anyway."

"Great, I'll help you pick some out."

"Thanks, that would be great."

"You're welcome." Hong Ye then gave her a phone number, "Write this down, we'll contact each other later."

Overall, the video chat with Hong Ye was quite pleasant. Su Yuan mostly listened, rarely speaking, which suited her, as she was in the dorm with Ji Ye Hao and Gao Jun, and couldn't say much freely.

Humming a tune, Su Yuan took her clothes to take a shower.

...

That's it for the third update. The recent chapters have been relatively calm, but please bear with it, as they are closely related to the later plot. The story will accelerate and become more exciting after the National Day holiday. Unfortunately, the current chapters were written without reader feedback, so the pacing wasn't well controlled.
