Bai Yan is bound to a system and must unceasingly tread the path of courting death by opposing the protagonists, becoming a stepping stone in their lives, destined for a tragic end in every life.
She's finally shown her true colors. All that talk about being innocent and kind, Bai Yan just wants to find her sense of superiority in poor people!
Lin Rou bit her lip and glared at Bai Yan, her eyes filled with resentment.
She didn't look like she was there to borrow money; she looked more like she was there to collect a debt.
Bai Yan raised her eyes and looked at Lin Rou very sincerely: "Why would you think that? I just don't want to humiliate you, so I can't just give you the money like that. You said you would pay it back, and of course I'm willing to believe you, but... they don't believe you."
There was a hint of difficulty in her eyes, "They always say you're only with me for the money, of course I can't let them misunderstand you?"
Lin Rou: ...
That damned saint! She can't even think straight!
It must be Zhu Ling and Shen Xiaohui. They always fawn over Bai Yan in the dorm and dare to talk bad about her. When the end of the world comes, she'll sew those bitches' mouths shut first!
But now he could only suppress his temper: "But we're friends. Didn't you say I'm your best friend? Won't you help me if I'm in trouble?"
"Of course I'll help you!"
Bai Yan said, "It's precisely because we're friends that I can't give you charity. You said you're not a beggar and don't need cheap charity. See, I remember everything you said."
Lin Rou's face twisted involuntarily; the more she looked at that innocent, saintly face, the angrier she became!
She did say that, shortly after the start of the semester.
We were both freshmen and lived in the same dormitory.
Bai Yan is rich; she spent 30,000 yuan on stray cats, while Bai Yan was working three jobs a day and was so poor that she ate instant noodles. Why didn't Bai Yan see that?
Later, even though he knew that her mother was sick and hospitalized and needed money, he didn't give her money privately but instead raised funds for her, applied for school subsidies for her, and found her a library for work-study programs!
At that time, she had just been exposed and insulted by Bai Yan online, yet she disregarded past grievances and brought her classmates to help her. If it wasn't to make herself stand out, what was her purpose?!
And they made such a fuss that so many people know about it, trampling on her self-esteem just to highlight her nobility and kindness!
Driven by her pride, she refused the donation, instead stating that the money was borrowed and she would repay it all later.
In reality, she knew perfectly well that the vast majority of her medical expenses came from Bai Yan. She had no intention of repaying her; it was what she deserved, money Bai Yan had paid to buy her reputation!
“With your current abilities, I’m afraid you won’t be able to pay off three million in decades,” Bai Yan continued.
Lin Rou clenched her fists; she now truly felt that Bai Yan was insulting her.
"I'm fine with it, but I'm worried about the pressure of not being able to pay you back." As she spoke, Bai Yan pulled a contract out of her bag and smiled at Lin Rou, "But I've thought of a solution."
“You work for me, and I’ll give you three million in compensation.”
Lin Rou breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this: as expected, she was still that brainless, saintly woman.
"Does it have to be this complicated?" She flipped open the contract again, glanced at it, and saw that it belonged to a laboratory mainly engaged in biological research, while the contract she had signed was for an experiment related to gene research.
When needed by the lab, I draw blood, perform full-body examinations, and cooperate with the lab in conducting confidential research.
"In the early stages of gene research, it only involves blood draws and simple observations." As Lin Rou looked at it, Bai Yan explained, "This is a laboratory invested in by the Bai family. You can go and take a look if you don't believe me."
The Bai family is a long-established enterprise supported by the state, so Lin Rou had no reason not to believe it.
Besides, even if it were true, so what?
She is a superhuman with a physical constitution stronger than ordinary people. Even if they want to use her to experiment on drugs later, she is not afraid. Anyway, the apocalypse is coming soon, and she just needs to find a safe place to hide.
"No need, let's sign the contract."
Bai Yan wasn't surprised that she agreed immediately.
People who are more insecure tend to become more arrogant after gaining ability.
He handed her a pen and said with a smile, "That's good. This three million is your reward. As long as you don't breach the contract, you can use this money as you please."
Lin Rou's lips curled into a mocking smile: Breach of contract? There's no need to pay breach of contract fees in the apocalypse.
"Alright." He pushed the contract over. "Transfer the money to me."
"good."
Bai Yan dialed the lab's finance department, and soon the other party transferred the three million reward to Lin Rou's card.
After receiving the three million, Lin Rou got up to leave.
Bai Yan tapped her hand lightly on the table: "Wait, didn't you read the contract carefully? You have to go to the lab for a blood test on the day you sign it, and then you'll be monitored afterwards."
Lin Rou looked impatient and was about to find a way to refuse when she saw the jade bracelet on the other person's wrist, and her eyes suddenly lit up.
Space Jade Bracelet!
This is the jade bracelet that Bai Yan had in her previous life that could store large amounts of resources!
"Okay, let's go get our blood drawn first." Her burning gaze fell on the jade bracelet, trying to calm her racing heart. No rush, the jade bracelet would be hers sooner or later.
She was indeed a chosen one; the jade bracelet appeared automatically just as she was preparing to stockpile supplies.
On the way, Lin Rou casually asked a few questions: "You don't seem to wear this bracelet much before?"
"I haven't worn it much, but jade needs to be nurtured. I wear it for a few days a month, you probably didn't notice before," Bai Yan said.
"This jade bracelet looks very valuable," Lin Rou said. "You just keep it in your locker in the dorm? So many people come and go in the dorm, what if it gets stolen or damaged?"
"Of course not, I keep it in my own room."
Lin Rou nodded. She didn't ask Bai Yan anything more, but her gaze kept drifting to the bracelet on Bai Yan's wrist.
