Chapter 147 Lin Xiaoxiao



After hanging up the phone, Shen Lang communicated with Gu Qingqing through the soul chain and inquired about her recent performance.

You won't know until you ask, and what you find out is quite surprising.

Shen Lang originally thought he had overestimated Gu Qingqing, but he did not expect that Gu Qingqing's business talent after joining the exchange would make Shen Lang realize that he had underestimated this woman who had been reborn in love.

For the past two weeks, Gu Qingqing has ensured at least one transaction per day, sometimes even reaching four or five, with an average of two to three transactions per day.

Shen Lang can use the system to find out about Gu Qingqing's transaction process.

After checking two or three transactions, Shen Lang couldn't help but sigh, "Tsk tsk, the term 'profiteer' came out too early."

Shen Lang originally thought that the price of 700,000 yuan he paid for Li Mingfang's 30 years of life was low enough. However, the most outrageous transaction in Gu Qingqing's hands was to trade 20 years of a poor student's life for 8,000 Yanhuang coins per year.

"Well done, haha!" Shen Lang looked at the system and saw that it had added 35 experience points and trading coins. He laughed happily and said, "Tell me what reward you want. I'm in a good mood today, so I'll grant you whatever you ask."

Gu Qingqing's response was: I don't want anything, just come and visit me more often.

Shen Lang had no choice but to agree to visit her after returning to X City.

After all, the system's teleportation function is not yet activated, so he cannot immediately fly to Gu Qingqing's side.

She may not be as pretty as Michelle, but her abilities surpass Michelle's.

At the same time, Shen Lang was also considering whether or not to abandon Mi Qi'er.

This person is utterly useless to me, completely of no use.

She then gave Gu Qingqing an order: to observe Michelle for a period of time. If Michelle remained ineffective, she would stop providing her with money.

Although money is just a number to Shen Lang, who now has three major corporations at his disposal, it's not something that comes easily.

If Michelle performs well afterward, he will naturally not be stingy.

After finishing his conversation with Gu Qingqing, Shen Lang's gloom vanished. In high spirits, he saw a Mixue Ice Cream shop by the roadside, casually walked in, and ordered a Peach Four Seasons Spring Ice Cream with ice, which cost four yuan.

As Shen Lang walked out of the milk tea shop, he inserted the straw into his fruit tea cup and was about to head home when he was stopped by a simply dressed little girl with a dirty face.

"Brother, would you like to buy a flower?" The little girl held a bouquet of roses in her hands, a lovely smile on her face.

When he saw that the little girl still had quite a few roses in her hand, he was in a great mood and immediately decided to buy them all.

Shen Lang bent down and asked with a smile, "Little girl, how much does one of these cost?"

The little girl laughed and said, "Twenty yuan a flower!"

"Alright, then I'll take all the rest of the flowers. You should go home and rest early too. It's getting late, don't worry your family." Shen Lang patted her head and said gently.

"Thank you, brother!" the little girl said sweetly.

Then he took out his phone to scan the QR code hanging on the little girl's chest.

However, out of the corner of his eye, he noticed a strange look in the little girl's eyes.

That look in his eyes was one of relief, fear, despair, and perhaps even a hint of pleading.

Shen Lang frowned, immediately sensing that something was amiss.

He glanced around out of the corner of his eye and noticed a thin young man staring at the little girl.

Upon closer inspection of the little girl, Shen Lang noticed a bruise on her wrist, which was covered by a long sleeve, from the rope binding it. Her mouth, which was covered by grime, also appeared to be swollen.

To confirm his own thoughts, Shen Lang used the system to check the little girl's information.

Client: Lin Xiaoxiao

Identity: An orphan trafficked by human traffickers

Inner desire: Hoping the host can save me

Synopsis: Lin Xiaoxiao is from Guizhou Province. Her mother died in childbirth, and her father died when she was two years old due to a safety accident at a construction site. As a result, Lin Xiaoxiao lost both parents before she even became known.

Xu Xiaoxiao, who lost both parents, was adopted by her uncle Lin Zhifeng's family. After receiving 100,000 yuan in compensation from the construction site boss, Xu Zhifeng raised Xu Xiaoxiao for three years.

Three years later, at his wife's urging, Lin Zhifeng sold Lin Xiaoxiao to a human trafficking gang for 8,000 yuan.

Under the manipulation of human traffickers, Lin Xiaoxiao began a life of begging on the streets and selling flowers.

"These beasts." A raging fire instantly ignited in Shen Lang's heart.

He never imagined that human traffickers would still exist in today's society with a sound legal system.

However, instead of immediately alerting the enemy, he quietly scanned the QR code and paid 200 yuan. Then, he squatted down, stroked Lin Xiaoxiao's head, and gently comforted her, "Xiaoxiao, don't be afraid. Your brother is here to save you."

Upon hearing Shen Lang's words, Lin Xiaoxiao's eyes lit up instantly, and she excitedly asked, "Brother, are you a hero?"

Shen Lang nodded and smiled, "That's right, brother is a hero. Listen to what brother is saying, you go back with those human traffickers first, and brother will follow you to rescue all your friends. That way, Xiaoxiao will be a hero too!"

"Can I, Xiaoxiao?"

Shen Lang's words seemed to have a magical power, filling Lin Xiaoxiao with confidence in the handsome older brother in front of her. She nodded and said, "I will listen to you, brother. I believe you will definitely rescue us."

"Good girl!" Shen Lang praised Lin Xiaoxiao, then held the fruit tea he hadn't drunk yet to Lin Xiaoxiao's lips and said, "This is your brother's reward for you."

Lin Xiaoxiao shook her head and said, "Brother, I can't drink it. I'll drink it after you've rescued all our friends. Then Xiaoxiao will be a hero."

The young man who was monitoring Lin Xiaoxiao noticed that Shen Lang was talking to her for quite a while, so he walked over to Shen Lang and said, "Hey, who are you? What are you doing bothering my little sister?"

A mocking smile, visible only to Lin Xiaoxiao, appeared on Shen Lang's lips. He stood up and said to the young man, "It's nothing. I just thought your little sister was cute and wanted to tease her."

"Get out of here, get away from my little sister. Who knows if you're a human trafficker?" the young man said disdainfully.

Shen Lang nodded: "Okay, okay, I'll be going now."

Then he waved to Lin Xiaoxiao and said, "Little sister, we'll meet again someday!"

Lin Xiaoxiao smiled and replied, "Thank you for buying my flowers, big brother. Good luck!"

Lin Xiaoxiao was then taken away by the young men, who said as they walked, "Come back with me quickly, the food is all ready and waiting for you to eat."
