Jiang Zhiyi, as a rapid-transmigration tasker, works diligently every day, playing the role of a sacrificial character, but the male protagonist seems to be getting more and more abnormal.

Chapter 462 The Problematic Baby VS The Arrogant Guy Who Loves to Ask Questions 14
Lu Jingxun's lips moved slightly as he read out a string of numbers—his number.
Jiang Zhiyi hadn't even reacted yet when he suddenly read it aloud, and she hadn't heard a thing.
"What?" She frantically grabbed her phone and quickly tapped the search bar on WeChat. "I didn't hear you, 1..."
In fact, she didn't hear a single number clearly.
"Stupid," Lu Jingxun muttered softly, his voice low but tinged with helplessness.
Then, he patiently and slowly recited those numbers again.
This time, he spoke very, very slowly, uttering numbers one by one, as if afraid that Jiang Zhiyi might miss something.
He looked as if he were teaching a clueless child, but his eyes still held his usual indifference.
Jiang Zhiyi wasn't that stupid; he was just speaking so slowly that she almost wanted to urge him on, but she held back.
Eyes glued to the phone screen, finger hovering over it, ready to search as soon as the input is finished.
After the search results appeared, the profile picture that came into view seemed to be the system default, a completely black image, and the name was just a few simple letters - LJX.
Jiang Zhiyi pursed her lips and thought to herself: Anyone who didn't know better would think he was some kind of mysterious figure, acting so unfathomable.
"I've added you, will you accept?" Jiang Zhiyi looked up at Lu Jingxun with anticipation, as if she could already see the 50,000 yuan about to be in her hands.
Lu Jingxun then leisurely took out his phone and unlocked the screen.
A friend request popped up immediately.
[The cutest baby requests to add you as a friend.]
Lu Jingxun frowned.
How come he didn't notice she had these quirks? The cutest baby?
Is this a name that a normal person could come up with?
Oh... she's definitely not normal.
Jiang Zhiyi looked completely innocent, wondering why he had suddenly started spacing out, and quickly asked, "What's wrong? Hurry up and agree. It's that one, I didn't get the wrong one..."
She glanced at his phone screen and saw her message. Not seeing anything wrong with it, she said confidently, "That cutest baby is me."
These were names and profile pictures she carefully selected.
Lu Jingxun: "..."
For a moment, he didn't know how to react. His finger paused for a second before he clicked "agree".
Soon, a transfer of 50,000 yuan was made.
Jiang Zhiyi's eyes widened instantly. She first politely sent a cute "thank you" emoji, and then eagerly clicked "accept".
He couldn't suppress his smile; the corners of his mouth were turned up high, and his eyes narrowed into crescent moons.
Fifty thousand yuan!
It's 50,000 yuan!
That's almost as much as their family's annual income.
She can use this money to buy many things she wants, and also to buy many things for her family.
"Well... I'll be going now, thank you." Jiang Zhiyi stood up.
Lu Jingxun hummed in agreement.
Jiang Zhiyi quickly turned and left, her steps light and airy, clearly completely immersed in the joy of receiving a large sum of money.
Lu Jingxun thought she was really easily satisfied; she was so happy over just a few tens of thousands of yuan.
He looked down at his phone again and clicked into Jiang Zhiyi's WeChat Moments.
Her profile picture is a selfie, but with some cartoon decorations added, making it look more lively and cute, which matches her nickname quite well.
They update their WeChat Moments very frequently, posting almost every day, sometimes even several times a day.
There are selfies, landscape photos, food photos, and books to read...
Lu Jingxun gently swiped his finger across the screen, scrolling down line by line.
I didn't expect her to be so talkative.
I imagine many people have blocked her, given how noisy she is every day.
Before he knew it, he had been staring at it for almost an hour, until the nanny came over and reminded him, and he finally snapped out of it.
...
By evening.
Jiang Zhiyi lay in bed, unable to fall asleep.
She was considering whether to install a few air conditioners in her home.
But the electricity bill will be a significant expense, and they may not be willing to turn it on.
"Yinyin, are you hot?" Jiang Zhiyi asked her.
Jiang Qiuyin was wearing a light t-shirt and shorts, and her chubby little legs kicked a few times in a disobedient manner. "...It's not hot."
It's not completely cool, but it's much more comfortable with the fan on.
"I'm not hot either!" Jiang Qiujin answered even though no one asked him. "I'm not afraid of the heat at all!"
He lifted his short-sleeved shirt, exposing his stomach.
Jiang Qiuyin went over to cover him up, saying, "Brother, you're being shy. You can't just lift up his clothes like that."
Jiang Qiujin patted her stomach a few times, saying, "Your stomach needs some fresh air too."
Jiang Zhiyi quickly slapped his hand away, "Don't pat my stomach, put your clothes down."
Kids don't know their own strength; they might hurt themselves without even realizing it.
After thinking about it, Jiang Zhiyi gave up the idea of buying an air conditioner.
If you think about it carefully, this amount of money isn't actually that much. Let's save it for now and use it in case of any emergencies later.
She continued to make plans in her mind.
Lu Jingxun was really generous; this amount of money was nothing to him, perhaps just the cost of a few meals.
But for her, it was different.
If I could get more money from him...
Jiang Zhiyi nestled in the soft blankets, her eyes fixed on her phone screen, her fingers gently swiping through the contact list, and soon found Lu Jingxun.
She bit her lower lip, hesitated for a while, then tapped her fingertip on the screen and sent over several carefully selected photos of the night sky.
In the photo, the night sky resembles a giant black ribbon, with stars twinkling like jewels.
Jiang Zhiyi: [The weather has been so nice lately, and there are so many stars in the night sky.]
After sending the message, she held her phone, curled up slightly, and stared intently at the screen.
After waiting for a while, the phone remained silent.
Jiang Zhiyi pursed her lips.
She kicked off the covers, slipped on her slippers, and walked to the balcony, craning her neck to peek at the balcony next door.
The lights are on; I'm not asleep yet.
Jiang Zhiyi lay back down on the bed and picked up her phone again.
Jiang Zhiyi: [The bracelet is fixed. I re-threaded a few beads, and it looks a little better than before.]
...
Jiang Zhiyi: [It's so hot... I really envy those of you who have air conditioning.]
She didn't know what to say, so she sent a lot of random messages, trying to find topics and subtly complaining about being poor.
But as they kept sending messages, the person on the other end seemed not to have received any information at all, and didn't reply with a single word.
Jiang Zhiyi was somewhat discouraged.
How can this person be like this? They don't give me any face at all.
She grew angrier the more she thought about it, and she slammed her finger on the screen, typing out a line of text.
Jiang Zhiyi: [Fine, don't reply then! You're being so rude!]
After sending the message, she tossed her phone aside, impatiently turned over, and faced away from the phone.
About half an hour later, just as Jiang Zhiyi was drifting off to sleep, her phone suddenly rang.
She picked up her phone, and the screen showed that Lu Jingxun had replied.
When I opened the dialog box, I only saw a single, isolated character.
Lu Jingxun: [?]
