The central hub of the Starship Sea, the Starship docking platform.
Lin Mo glanced at Qing Que, who was sulking beside him, and sighed helplessly.
Then, he suddenly froze, realizing a serious problem.
"Hey? Little Lingzi, how many credits did you bring today?"
Upon hearing this, Li Ling was slightly taken aback. He looked at Lin Mo with a puzzled expression and said, "Master Lin? Do you need to buy some materials to break the secret technique? I only have two thousand credits here right now. If you need them, I can transfer them all to you."
Two thousand credits? Seriously? Is your intelligence agency doing that badly?
Lin Mo suddenly felt a headache.
He forgot that he had used all his credits to pay rent.
Lin Mo is now penniless.
Two thousand credits are fine for other small restaurants, but at Zhiwei Shengyuan, it's not that it's not enough, but it's not even enough to fill a tooth gap.
"Uh, that's not the case. Director Chen has never mistreated us. It's just that my brother and I basically hand over our salaries to our parents every month, so we usually have very little cash on hand."
Li Ling truthfully stated.
Seeing this, Lin Mo could only shift his gaze to Qing Que...
"Ahem, Little Bluebird, come here for a moment, I need to discuss something with you."
He coughed twice and said shamelessly.
Upon hearing this, Qingque, who had her arms crossed, immediately frowned, recognizing the wicked fellow's scheme at a glance.
"What! You still haven't paid back any of the money you owed me last time! And now you want to borrow money from me again? Let me tell you, no way!"
"Hey, what are you saying? Didn't I already give you back 0.04 credits?"
Lin Mo shrugged and smiled.
"You have the nerve to say that!" Qingque raised her hand and waved it, making a gesture as if she was about to beat Lin Mo up.
Seeing this, Lin Mo quickly explained:
"The situation was urgent at the time, and I did all that to protect your salary! If it weren't for the array I set up with so many jade tablets, we'd probably be locked up in a dark room and being disciplined by Fu Taibu right now, and our salaries for this month would definitely be deducted. I did all this for your own good!"
At this point, Lin Mo gradually gained some confidence. He cleared his throat twice and said:
"Ahem, this time it's my turn to need your help, Qingque... Sister? You won't just stand by and do nothing, will you?"
Lin Mo brazenly said with difficulty.
The word "sister" was almost squeezed out from between her teeth...
Qingque originally thought that she would make Lin Mo suffer today, and that no matter how she coaxed him, he would not be swayed.
Upon hearing the word "sister," the anger in his heart was instantly extinguished.
Although she knew the other person's call was very reluctant, Qingque still felt quite elated.
However, she couldn't bring herself to forgive Lin Mo directly, so she feigned indifference and said, "Hmph, what do you need money for?"
"Shall we all have a meal together?" Lin Mo tentatively suggested.
Qingque was taken aback for a moment, then snorted coldly and said with dissatisfaction, "Hmph! I think you're trying to woo your old friend Susan, aren't you?"
As she spoke, she couldn't help but mutter to herself.
Using another woman's money to seduce another woman? What kind of good thing is that?
"Hey, don't be so heartless. Look, they've come all the way from Yaoqing to help me. If we don't treat them to a nice meal, wouldn't we feel bad?"
Lin Mo attempted to launch an attack.
"Hmph, she's here to help you, not me! This has nothing to do with me!"
Qingque put her hands on her hips and said with dissatisfaction.
The attack failed.
"Hey, look at what you're saying! We're practically family! We've been friends for so many years, slacking off together! Don't talk like that, so distant!"
Lin Mo tried to output again.
"Stop, stop! I don't want to hear your excuses. Anyway, I'm not going to lend you my credits so you can ruin other girls!"
Qingque turned her head away, stretched out her palm to block him, and said coldly.
She ruthlessly blocked Lin Mo's attack.
Seeing how resistant the other party was, Lin Mo had already given up struggling.
He had already been very tactful, and even called her "sister" without any restraint.
Is there anything more painful in the world than calling a woman who is a head shorter than you "sister"?
Come on, let Susan treat us then.
Lin Mo triggered the passive ability to "play it safe".
He sighed and said, "Alas, I never thought that after so many years of dominating the Immortal Ship, I, Lin Mo, would one day have a woman treat me to a meal."
"It seems we'll have to let our guest, Susan, pay for it..."
"What? Last time, it was the woman who paid for the meal!" Qingque muttered to herself, and just as she was about to retort, a crisp sound suddenly rang in her ears.
"Hey! Lin Mo, what is it that requires me to spend money?"
Everyone was stunned for a moment and subconsciously looked behind them.
Her golden hair danced in the long wind stirred up by the docking of the star raft, her bright blue eyes were like a blue sapphire, and on her shoulder, an adorable orange hamster clung tightly to her long hair, almost being blown away by the turbulent wind.
"Squeak! Squeak!"
Help! Help!
"Hello! Sorry to keep you waiting. I thought it was just Lin Mo! I shouldn't have deliberately been late."
Susan smiled and greeted them, then gently patted the little hamster on her shoulder.
The little hamster breathed a sigh of relief, then felt it wasn't safe enough on her shoulder, so it climbed up Susan's long hair to the top of her head, eventually hiding in a small tuft of blonde hair and falling asleep.
