He pulled Linghu Lan into his arms and solemnly introduced her to Chu Xing: "Ye Qinghuan, my wife."
"Huh?" Chu Xing asked, puzzled. "Isn't it Ye Xunhuan?"
"She is Ye Xunhuan."
Chu Xing was silent for a moment, but quickly realized that it was the virtual world that was to blame again.
He paused, then said softly, "My life is very valuable; eight million can't buy it out."
Linghu Lan smiled. She'd only just woken up and already knew how to bargain; the medicine must be working well. "So, how much do you think it's worth?"
"At least... ten million, right?"
The words had barely left his mouth.
Linghu Lan pried open his jaw as he was just waking up, and he felt three pills fall into his throat, which he had no choice but to swallow.
Linghu Lan clapped her hands and laughed, "I just fed you three more 'medicines,' eleven million in total, so you still made a profit. Consider the other 'medicine' a tip."
Chu Xing felt a lump in her throat. She had never seen such a tip before. Have you ever seen someone use "medicine" as a tip? They're taking advantage of honest people like us!
Also, where can you find such expensive "medicine"? One million per pill? Are you robbing me?
Bai Yu glanced coldly at Chu Xing, then silently took Linghu Lan's hand and gently wiped it with a handkerchief.
Linghu Lan: "..."
Holy crap, this terrifying possessiveness, is my OCD acting up again?
Also, he likes to wipe his sister's hands. What kind of "quirk" is that?
Chu Xing felt confused, as if she had not only been rejected but also threatened.
So, you rescued me just so I could eat dog food?
I won't eat it!!
...
He woke up and came back to life.
I found that my depression had lessened.
Linghu Lan did indeed arrange a job for him, allowing him to work and earn money.
She opened a love-themed shop and arranged for Chu Xing to personally apply love charms to people.
Chu Xing was initially unwilling, but after Linghu Lan threatened him several times that his life had been bought out, he had no choice but to reluctantly agree.
The shop became incredibly popular as soon as it opened, with many people traveling by train and plane just to get a talisman that supposedly allows them to see their future sweetheart.
Chu Xing is busy every day. Every day when he opens the door, countless people are waiting to put up talismans. He can't stay idle at all. By night, he is so sleepy that he falls asleep as soon as his head hits the pillow.
It wasn't until one day, a long time later, that I woke up and, after a moment of blankness, realized that I had forgotten that I had ever had depression.
His depression seems to have really gotten better...
It felt like a dream, like waking up from a dream.
He remained silent for a moment, then softly said, "Thank you!"
No one heard this thank you except himself, but Chu Xing knew that he was sincere, so the person he wanted to thank would definitely hear it.
Then one day, a girl came to the shop. After putting up a talisman, she insisted on staying to work in the shop. Since Chuxing was short-staffed, they called Linghu Lan to ask.
Linghu Lan couldn't help but laugh. "Chu Xing, after all this time, you don't still think this shop is mine, do you?"
Not long after the paper doll incident, Xin'an Group fell into a huge crisis of trust and finance, eventually going bankrupt and undergoing restructuring. The Chu family was excluded from the shareholders, and now Chu Xing can be said to have nothing.
Chu Xing paused for a moment, then immediately understood Linghu Lan's meaning, and couldn't help but choke up. "Thank you! Sister!"
From the moment he opened his eyes and first called Linghu Lan "sister," he had already treated her as an older sister in his heart. However, he knew he would never say those words aloud in his entire life.
