Chapter 298 The Pseudo-Student's Black Moonlight Goddess 48
That morning, Shen Xinran's eyes fell on Xia Qinghong's clothes. She suddenly discovered that there was a hole in Xia Qinghong's down jacket, and as she walked, goose feathers kept flying out.
Shen Xinran then remembered that she had bought this down jacket for her with her scholarship during her senior year of high school. It had been five years now, and she hadn't expected Xia Qinghong to still be wearing it.
Shen Xinran smiled at Xia Qinghong, "Mom, your down jacket is torn, let me take you shopping for clothes!"
Xia Qinghong glanced at her down jacket and waved her hand, "No need, just mend it. It's not like it can't be worn."
Shen Xinran walked forward, took Xia Qinghong's hand, and said coquettishly: "It's okay, just think of it as accompanying me shopping."
After hearing what Shen Xinran said, Xia Qinghong nodded reluctantly. "Okay then!"
Shen Xinran took Xia Qinghong to the mall, and she immediately fell in love with a long white down jacket on the model. She looked at Xia Qinghong and said with a smile, "Mom, can you help me try on that piece of clothing?"
Xia Qinghong frowned, "Why do you want me to try? You don't want to buy it for me! I tell you, I have clothes to wear, I don't need you to buy them."
Shen Xinran smiled and explained: "You think too much, I am afraid of the cold and don't want to take off my clothes."
Xia Qinghong put on the down jacket that Shen Xinran handed over with a half-believing and half-doubting attitude, turned around in front of the mirror, and a satisfied smile appeared on her face. "You know what, this down jacket is quite warm."
Shen Xinran was secretly delighted. She moved closer to Xia Qinghong and said with a smile, "If you like it, I'll buy it for you!"
Xia Qinghong glanced at the tag and was instantly shocked by the price. "Three thousand for a piece of clothing like this? It's too expensive."
After she finished speaking, she quickly took off her down jacket, put on her own clothes, and walked out holding Shen Xinran's hand.
Seeing this, Shen Xinran stretched his neck and shouted to the salesperson, "Help me pack this dress!"
Xia Qinghua held Shen Xinran's hand and frowned, "Let me make it clear first, I bought it for you to wear, I won't wear it."
Shen Xinran smiled and said, "Isn't the purpose of making money to spend? Besides, it's the New Year, can't I buy you some clothes?"
Xia Qinghong also knew that she couldn't persuade Shen Xinran, so she said unhappily, "Then I want black. White doesn't get dirty."
Shen Xinran smiled and nodded, "Okay, no problem."
Shen Xinran knew that Xia Qinghong was still so frugal because the family’s mortgage had not been paid off yet.
So, when she got home, she asked Xia Qinghong, "Mom, how much is left on our mortgage?"
Xia Qinghong walked forward and replied, "There's still 800,000 yuan left. Don't worry, your father and I can pay it back."
Shen Xinran nodded, took out his mobile phone, and transferred one million to Xia Qinghong.
Looking at the one million yuan that arrived in her account, Xia Qinghong's eyes widened with horror, "Where did you get so much money?"
Shen Xinran replied in a low voice: "Of course I earned it."
Xia Qinghong swallowed her saliva and asked in disbelief, "Are you so good at drawing designs now?"
Shen Xinran was stunned at first, then nodded with a smile. She couldn't say that the money was swindled from others!
…
After returning home, Shen Xinran looked at the small balance on her card and sighed. In order to avoid running out of money, she called a senior and asked, "Senior, has anyone asked for an article recently?"
The man on the other end of the phone smiled and said, "King of Glory is currently soliciting character design drafts, each one costs around 5,000. Are you interested? If so, I can recommend you."
Shen Xinran nodded directly, "Sure, thank you, Senior Brother."
Not long after hanging up the phone, Shen Xinran received contact information from the King of Glory staff. She followed the staff's instructions and began designing characters for the game.
Zhuang Yan went out early in the morning. When he returned, Shen Xinran had already taken out his tablet and started drawing. He leaned forward to take a look curiously, then asked, "What are you doing?"
Shen Xinran stared intently at the tablet in his hand and replied without looking up, "I'm designing characters for King of Glory. A drawing is worth 5,000. Don't bother me."
"King of Glory?" Zhuang Yan raised his eyebrows.
Shen Xinran nodded, "This game seems to be very popular recently, even Qi Hao is playing it."
Shen Xinran was immersed in his own drawings, painting from morning to night, and sometimes for several days at a time without saying a word.
Zhuang Yan didn't say anything at first, but on the fifth day, he finally couldn't help it. He walked to Shen Xinran's side and complained, "You've been drawing all the time and haven't chatted with me for a long time."
Shen Xinran retorted: "Don't you play games often?"
Zhuang Yan snorted coldly, "But every time you show up, I put down the game I'm playing to accompany you."
Shen Xinran looked at Zhuang Yan as if she was looking at an ignorant child. She patted Zhuang Yan on the head and said soothingly, "Don't make a fuss. I'm earning our living expenses for next year."
Her first character design is complete, with smooth lines and vibrant colors. She sent it to the staff yesterday, and they said it was fine. But she wants to take this opportunity to design two more.
Zhuang Yan leaned his head closer to Shen Xinran and said with a smile, "Stop painting. I'll support you!"
Shen Xinran suddenly remembered a popular meme recently. She glanced at Zhuang Yan and said, "Then you can V-tap me 100 times to see my strength."
Zhuang Yan immediately took out his phone, and not long after, Shen Xinran's phone vibrated. Shen Xinran subconsciously thought that Zhuang Yan had sent her a hundred yuan, and she thought it was funny.
But when she picked up her phone and saw the four zeros after the hundred, her eyes widened instantly. She looked at Zhuang Yan and asked, "Didn't you say you were unemployed? Then where did you get so much money?"
Zhuang Yan smiled and replied, "When I was in college, I was bored, so I designed a small game with my friends."
Shen Xinran suddenly had a premonition. She glanced at the manuscript in her hand and asked, "Could it be The King's Wind and Cloud?"
Zhuang Yan smiled and nodded, "Yes."
Shen Xinran swallowed her saliva. As expected of the male protagonist, he could still become a god even if he changed his track. She lowered her head and continued to paint.
Zhuang Yan was puzzled and asked, "I've already given you money, why do you still want to paint?"
While drawing, Shen Xinran replied, "Don't you know that trusting others is not as good as trusting yourself?"
Before going to bed at night, Shen Xinran suddenly remembered something. She looked at Zhuang Yan with a mischievous smile in her eyes: "By the way, your brother-in-law is still looking forward to your divorce."
Zhuang Yan frowned and asked, "Why?"
Chen Xinran's eyes curved with a smile. "It's said that the designer of the game King of Glory got married a while ago, and everything in the store is half price. He's still short of a helmet, and he's been hoping every day that the designer will get divorced and get married again."
Zhuang Yan listened, then silently picked up his phone and began to operate it. He not only gave Qiao Qihao two helmets, but also two sets of armor and several sets of exquisite skins.
A scream came from next door. Not long after, Qiao Qihao ran over from his room and asked Zhuang Yan, "Brother-in-law, are those things for me?"
Zhuang Yan nodded and said, "I wish your sister and I a long and happy marriage!"
Qiao Qihao excitedly offered his blessings repeatedly: "I wish my sister and brother-in-law a happy marriage, a long-lasting love, and a son soon..."
Qiao Qihao said almost all the blessings he could think of in his life, and almost said himself to death.
After hearing this, Zhuang Yan's mouth corners rose uncontrollably.
Chen Xinran glanced at Zhuang Yan's slightly raised lips and shook her head. There weren't many fools in this world, but she happened to meet two.
