“This man betrayed you, and you’re not even angry?”
“Why should I be angry? It’s you who’s been instigating behind his back, working so hard.”
Shen Lan Ni, without the slightest hesitation, tried to make excuses for Ren Yuan Hao, which was somewhat out of character for her.
Jiang Cheng, leaving Shen Lan Ni’s place, was furious. He had expected Shen Lan Ni to be very angry, but to his surprise, she remained completely unmoved.
He finally left dejectedly.
After Jiang Cheng left, Shen Lan Ni unconsciously watched the recording again. As she watched, the corners of her mouth turned up slightly, and she whispered, “Ren Yuan Hao, what kind of person are you?”
Meanwhile, Ren Yuan Hao had dinner with Zhang Ying Fang and watched a movie, returning home past ten o’clock.
The scent of Zhang Ying Fang still lingered on his clothes.
However, this fanciful thought was quickly replaced by the points earned from successfully completing the mission.
His hands trembled slightly.
Damn it, that was a full 600 points, which translated to 600,000!
Ren Yuan Hao’s eyes seemed to be dazzled by something golden and shimmering: it was money, mountains of gold, the allure that moves mountains and persuades ghosts, the root of all evil in the world!
But so what? Anyone who doesn’t love money is either a fool or an immortal. I, Ren Yuan Hao, am neither cultivating immortality nor am I foolish. Money, like Han Xin counting soldiers, the more the better. Daddy money, crush me.
“Never mind, I should save some points for future use, so I don’t find myself in a tight spot when I need them.”
Just as Ren Yuan Hao was congratulating himself on resisting the temptations of both beauty and money, a soft knock echoed at the door.
“So late, who is it?”
“It’s me, Zhang Ying Fang.”
“Oh, it’s Sister Zhang.” Ren Yuan Hao was about to get up when a sudden sharp pain shot through his chest. He knew something was wrong, thinking that perhaps he had overloaded the ‘God of Racing’ buff while racing, causing this condition.
“Yuan Hao?”
The pain was unbearable for Ren Yuan Hao, and he was covered in a cold sweat, unable to speak. Zhang Ying Fang called out a couple more times, and hearing no response from inside, she reluctantly took out her spare key and opened the door.
As soon as she opened the door, she saw Ren Yuan Hao curled up on the bed, sweating profusely. She touched his forehead and immediately knew something was amiss.
“You’re so hot! Do you have any ice packs at home?”
Ren Yuan Hao could only shake his head, his lips turning a bluish color.
“Bear with it for a moment, I’ll go get an ice pack.”
Zhang Ying Fang rushed out, quickly retrieved an ice pack from her own refrigerator to apply to him, and then used alcohol to wipe his chest.
“Why is it so hot again? Is the method wrong?”
Little miss, you show up dressed like this, how could I possibly be alright!
“I, I’m fine now, Sister Zhang. It’s so late, do you need something?”
Ren Yuan Hao deliberately turned his head away, his voice even a little stammering.
“N-nothing, I just suddenly remembered something I hadn’t told you.” Seeing his evasive gaze, Zhang Ying Fang pursed her lips and smiled, understanding dawning on her.
“What is it?”
“It’s like this, when I was watching your race with the binoculars this afternoon, I happened to see someone acting suspiciously on the hilltop, taking pictures of you. I was worried it might be detrimental to you, so…”
Ren Yuan Hao was amused by her words. He thought to himself, he wasn’t some celebrity. Before the system, he was just an unknown Taekwondo accountant. It was impossible for anyone to be detrimental to him.
No, nothing is absolute. Ren Yuan Hao suddenly sat up in his sickbed, startled. He thought of someone: Jiang Cheng!
That brat was slapped in the face so hard at the wedding, and he had also agreed to a martial arts competition with him. The feud was already established, so it was possible he’d send someone to gather intelligence.
“Yuan Hao? What are you spacing out about?” Zhang Ying Fang had already sat back down, her beautiful eyes fixed on the still somewhat pale Ren Yuan Hao.
“I’m fine, thank you for telling me, Sister Zhang. I think someone like me, without money or power, just a nobody, shouldn’t have anyone targeting me.”
Ren Yuan Hao had actually made up his mind. To prevent anyone from ambushing him, it was indeed necessary for him to spend some points to improve his physique. Otherwise, even with the system’s help, if his body couldn’t handle it, it would be a headache.
“As expected, once the mission ended, you started calling me Sister Zhang.” Zhang Ying Fang said with a hint of playful reproach. “When I first saw you today, I was too excited to ask. Now I want to ask, why did you join this DiDi Dan platform? Are you a bit tight on cash?”
This is bad, damn it, why do I smell a hint of being taken care of?
“Uh, no, no, our platform is very legitimate!”
“It is very legitimate. I think you, if you’re not after money, perhaps you enjoy the experience of having a different girlfriend every day?” Zhang Ying Fang teased.
As Ren Yuan Hao was contemplating this, the system’s beautiful, loli-like voice reappeared in his mind: A new order has been generated. Please accept the order as soon as possible.
