Lu Huai wanted to say something more, but Qin Wan had already turned and gone into the house, looking like she was unwilling to talk to him any further.
Lu Huai: "..."
After dinner, Lu Huai disappeared without a trace after tidying up the living room and kitchen.
Seeing that the house was empty, Qin Wan didn't ask any further questions, but instead turned around and went back into the game pod.
"Wanwan!"
"You're finally online!"
We've all missed you so much!
As soon as Qin Wan entered the game, two bright lights flashed before her eyes, and two figures, a man and a woman, appeared in her vision.
Jiang Ya wore a pink dress, with delicate and lovely features and a playful personality. Her two dimples when she smiled were very cute and endearing.
The original owner, Xie Zijue, and Jiang Ya were all in the "Prosperous Era" guild. The original owner had good skills, strong equipment, and extensive connections, and was the vice president of "Prosperous Era".
Xie Zijue and Jiang Ya are guild members. They have likable personalities and get along well with the original owner of the body. The original owner also takes good care of them.
When doing tasks, the original owner habitually brought the two of them along.
Even when undertaking rare secret realm missions, where the reward is an extremely rare and top-grade magical artifact, the original owner would not be stingy and would generously bring the two of them along, allowing them to share the reward that originally belonged solely to her.
Through long-term interaction, contact, and communication, the three of them developed a better and better relationship.
Jiang Ya and the original owner gradually became best friends who could talk about anything, while Xie Zijue became the original owner's loyal pursuer and admirer, only favoring the original owner.
Even towards Jiang Ya, who was almost inseparable from the two of them, Xie Zijue was cold and indifferent.
But this man, who was "deeply devoted" to the original owner of the body, began to manipulate her after she was moved and got together with him...
Then there's Jiang Ya, who seems to have a bad relationship with Xie Zijue and doesn't get along well, but in reality, she's been helping Xie Zijue manipulate and control the original owner.
"Wanwan? What's wrong?"
"You seem distracted? Are you in a bad mood?"
"Did something happen?"
"Why don't you tell us what you think, and we can all work together to find a solution?"
Jiang Ya looked at Qin Wan with concern, her eyes full of anxiety for Qin Wan. Anyone who didn't know better would really think that she cared about Qin Wan a lot.
Upon hearing this, Qin Wan feigned hesitation and looked at Jiang Ya, "I...I'm too embarrassed to speak..."
Seeing Qin Wan's reaction and attitude, Jiang Ya quickly patted her chest and said, "Wanwan, we're best friends. You don't need to feel embarrassed about me."
"No matter what difficulties you encounter, just tell us, Xie Zijue and I will help you!"
Upon hearing Jiang Ya's words, which sounded like a promise, Qin Wan suddenly grasped Jiang Ya's hand tightly with a look of gratitude.
"Ya Ya, you're so kind..."
After a brief, emotional scene, she immediately got into character and began her solo performance.
"It's like this, something's happened at home recently, and I'm a bit short on money. I was wondering if you or Xie Zijue could help me out..."
Upon hearing Qin Wan's words, Jiang Ya and Xie Zijue's expressions simultaneously stiffened.
Tight on money?
Is Qin Wan trying to borrow money from them?
"Wanwan, what happened at home? I remember you were fine just a couple of days ago." Jiang Ya looked at Qin Wan with a worried expression.
She hadn't even asked how much she wanted to borrow before she changed the subject so quickly.
Thinking of this, a hint of sarcasm flashed across Qin Wan's eyes.
"Actually, it's nothing much. It's just that after I started playing Kyushu World, I started spending money too recklessly. Before I knew it, all the money I had was gone."
"I only realized today that I had no money in my card and not enough for living expenses."
At this point, Qin Wan feigned annoyance.
Seeing this, Jiang Ya and Xie Zijue exchanged a glance, both seeing suspicion in each other's eyes.
"Then... how about you sell some equipment?" Jiang Ya tentatively suggested.
Upon hearing this, Qin Wan immediately shook her head and refused, "No way, these equipment are my life. I would rather starve to death than sell them!"
Jiang Ya: "..."
Xie Zijue: "..."
"Wanwan, equipment can't put food on the table; life and health are the most important things," Jiang Ya said earnestly.
Upon hearing this, Qin Wan looked at Jiang Ya with surprise in her eyes, "Why don't you just lend me some money?"
"I'm just temporarily short of money, not forever. I'll pay you back when I have the money."
At this point, Qin Wan paused, then looked at Jiang Ya and Xie Zijue with a complicated and strange expression.
"Besides, I'm not borrowing a lot from you, just some living expenses."
"I've always been so good to you and Xie Zijue, giving you such valuable equipment without a second thought. Have I ever asked you for a single penny?"
"I'm just in a bit of trouble right now and I need your help. Do you intend to just stand by and watch?"
Qin Wan narrowed her eyes, staring dangerously at Jiang Ya and Xie Zijue.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Ya and Xie Zijue's faces stiffened, and their expressions turned slightly unpleasant.
“Wanwan, that’s not what I meant. I didn’t say I wouldn’t help you. I just…”
"As you know, I'm still in university, and my monthly allowance is limited. I really don't mean to not want to help you, it's just that I don't have much money myself..."
Upon hearing this, Qin Wan's expression immediately brightened.
Seeing Jiang Ya's embarrassed expression, Qin Wan waved her hand dismissively and said, "It's okay, I understand. You and Xie Zijue are still studying, and you don't have much living expenses."
"Don't worry, you two. I won't borrow much from you, just a thousand yuan each."
He just blurted out a thousand each!
Qin Wan spoke lightly, but Jiang Ya and Xie Zijue's expressions were quite unpleasant.
They were both born into ordinary working-class families, and their monthly living expenses were only two thousand yuan.
Qin Wan asked to borrow half a month's living expenses. What were they supposed to do?
I can't possibly starve myself just to force myself to lend money to Qin Wan, can I?
Not to mention, they were never willing to lend it in the first place!
“Wanwan, it’s not that we’re unwilling to lend it. It’s just that Xie Zijue and I only have about two thousand yuan for living expenses each month, and it’s already the middle of the month, so we only have a few hundred yuan left…”
As she spoke, Jiang Ya looked at Qin Wan with a guilty expression, as if she was very sad that she had not been able to help her.
"You two have the exact same living expenses?" Qin Wan cleverly caught the key point in Jiang Ya's words and raised an eyebrow to ask.
"Yes, we just talked about this at the beginning of the month. We both received our living expenses on the same day, so we were curious and asked each other how much we received."
"oh……"
"So that's how it is..."
Qin Wan nodded, feigning understanding.
Just when Jiang Ya and Xie Zijue thought Qin Wan would continue to press for answers, she changed the subject and returned the focus to borrowing money.
"How much money do you two have left?"
"If the two of you pool your money, how much could you lend me?"
As she spoke, Qin Wan looked at Jiang Ya and Xie Zijue with expectant eyes, her face full of hope and anticipation.
She looked as if Jiang Ya and Xie Zijue were her lifelines.
Jiang Ya: "..."
Xie Zijue: "..."
