Chapter 145 Main World 4 "I can't easily pay off what I owe you."
Ever since that brief meeting, Qin Wang seemed to have really thought things through and never looked for Jian Ziyan again.
Jian Ziyan did not show any sign of strangeness. He completely returned to his life before the time travel, writing articles, working, doing housework, and saving money.
If he hadn't turned off all the news push notifications on his phone and disconnected the Internet on his computer, 419 would really have believed that he didn't care about Qin Wang at all.
What was a little different from what 419 thought was that Jian Ziyan did not want to hide anything deliberately. He just took the most decisive way to erase Qin Wang from his life.
If he was a smoothly running program, Qin Wang was like a sudden virus. In order to ensure that his program would not have more bugs, Jian Ziyan had no choice but to remove the virus.
The desensitization process can be painful, but it is often effective.
Just when Jian Ziyan had almost adjusted to his ordinary life again, a phone call from Ye Bin broke the calm he had forced himself to pretend to be.
"Xiao Yan, where did you get so much money?"
Ye Bin's words stunned Jian Ziyan.
"Dean, what are you talking about?" Jian Ziyan glanced at his balance and said in a joking tone, "I almost took it seriously."
"What...?" Ye Bin paused anxiously, becoming even more confused than him, "Then what's going on?"
Jian Ziyan realized that something seemed to be wrong. He took off his anti-blue light glasses and his expression became serious.
"Dean Dad, what happened? Tell me slowly."
Ye Bin is already very old, but because the orphanage doesn't make much money and no one is willing to take over, and he himself is worried about the children, he has been sticking to his job. In recent years, Jian Ziyan has clearly felt that his energy and thinking are a little weak, so he is particularly anxious to come back.
Jian Ziyan's voice was very gentle, and Ye Bin sounded a little calmer.
"It's like this, Xiao Yan. I received a donation today... a large donation, and it was signed with your name." Ye Bin said, "Also, the renovation plan for the old building approved by the government came in, and the funds that had been in deficit before were suddenly filled."
Jian Ziyan's gentle expression was fixed on his face.
The knuckles of his fingers holding the phone turned white, and Ye Bin's voice was still ringing.
"If it's not you, then who could it be?" Ye Bin became worried. "The documents approved by the government should be fine, but if the donation with your name on it comes from an unknown source, I wouldn't dare to use it..."
"Dean dad, how much money is that?" Jian Ziyan asked.
"...Fifteen million." Ye Bin said, "It's a very large sum of money."
Jian Ziyan exhaled slowly.
Having experienced so many worlds, he was not shocked by the number of 15 million. He just seemed to see another world that he had tried his best to exclude slowly approaching him.
"Use it, Dean Dad." Jian Ziyan made a decision. "I know who it is. He's my... friend. He owed me a favor before, and now he's just paying me back. It's not some money from unknown sources."
"Is that so..." Ye Bin was not relieved, but even more worried. "Xiao Yan, what favor did he owe you that you have to pay back 15 million? You haven't been involved in any trouble, have you?"
Jian Ziyan's eyes were a little sour, he smiled and comforted: "No, you know me, I hate trouble the most, it was just a coincidence that he was sick, and then I sent him to the hospital. He regarded it as a life-saving favor, and now we are even."
Ye Bin still believed in him. After hearing what he said, Ye Bin felt relieved.
"That's great." The old man said kindly, "Xiao Yan, even if I'm just repaying you a favor, it's just a piece of cake. What he's repaying you far exceeds what he owes you. You should thank him."
"I will, Dean Dad." Jian Ziyan said in a gentle voice, "In short, there is no problem with the money, you can use it with confidence, buy a set of tables and chairs for the children, and a set of good beds and bedding, and yourself, when I went to see you that day, you were still wearing the sweater I bought you three years ago..."
"I know, I know." Ye Bin said repeatedly, "I will take good care of myself, don't worry."
Jian Ziyan smiled helplessly.
After hanging up the phone, Jian Ziyan looked at his phone and fell into deep thought.
419: "Host, are you going to contact Qin Wang?"
"Of course I have to contact him. If there is a problem, it must be solved. It's not good to drag it out." Jian Ziyan didn't hesitate. "I'm thinking about another thing."
419: "What?"
"Since I came back, my thinking has been limited." Jian Ziyan said, "I feel that I am just an ordinary person in my own world. Even though there are many things I want to do, I think I am unable to do them... But I am no longer the person I used to be. I have been through so many worlds. Even though I cannot use my power, I have experienced the complete lives of so many people, such as Marshal Jian's talent and strategy, the Regent's poetry and scholarship, and the Piano Prince's genius... I can do much more than I can now."
419: "That's right! Host, you have experienced all those lives completely. You will be able to do whatever they do!"
"Yes." Jian Ziyan let out a sigh. "I tried to separate myself from this experience and return to a normal life, but the reality is that I still have my own responsibilities. I can't be so willful."
Jian Ziyan didn't say anything more. He directly opened the webpage, searched for the contact information of Qin's first secretary Xia Han, and sent him an email.
"Tell Qin Wang my contact information: xxxx
"Jian Ziyan"
419 was shocked: "Host, such a casual email, will it be treated as spam and cleaned up by the secretary?"
"Do you think that if Qin Wang wants to find me, I need to give him a way myself?" Jian Ziyan said, "I just gave him a way so that he can find me legitimately."
“…I see.” 419 finally understood.
It looked at Jian Ziyan and suddenly felt like it was back in the small world doing a mission.
After returning to the main world, Jian Ziyan seemed to disguise himself deliberately, like a pearl that had sand stuck to its body. He was pretending and hypnotizing himself that he was an ordinary person and that nothing that happened before had happened.
But now he has changed. The Jian Ziyan who was able to strategize in the small world and seemed to be in control of the entire world seems to have returned.
Jian Ziyan didn't know what the system was thinking. After he sent the email, he waited for a while, and sure enough, the phone rang soon.
Looking at the unfamiliar number, Jian Ziyan pressed the answer button.
There was a sound of suppressed breathing on the other end of the conversation.
"Qin Wang, it's you." Jian Ziyan got straight to the point, "Donations to the orphanage, and the documents that the government suddenly approved."
"It's me, Zi Yan." Qin Wang's voice was deep, "I'm sorry for acting without your consent."
"You don't need to apologize. If people who do good things still need to apologize, what kind of world is this?" Jian Ziyan looked out the window at the dusk. "You made such a big move just to let me contact you?"
"I don't... No, I do have this expectation." Qin Wang rejected the rebuttal that came out of his mouth, "Zi Yan, I'm waiting for this call every minute and every second, but I don't dare to hope that you will really call."
Jian Ziyan sighed silently.
"Qin Wang, even if you feel that you owe me something, you have paid it back now, which is enough." He said, "You don't need to be so humble in front of me, just let yourself go."
The breathing on the phone became heavy for a moment.
"What do you think, Zi Yan? Do you think I did these things to repay you for saving me?" Qin Wang's voice became hoarse.
"Since you don't want to repay me, I'm sorry, I misunderstood." Jian Ziyan said calmly, "Now that your goal has been achieved, I will return the money to you."
This sentence undoubtedly represented a clear distinction and brought Qin Wang great pain.
"Can you... not speak to me in such a cold tone? Consider it as a plea from me." Qin Wang's voice was very low, as if he was trying his best to suppress something. "We are not strangers, Jian Ziyan, even if you want to deny it, we are not strangers."
Jian Ziyan's white fingertips tapped the tabletop, and his drooped eyelashes concealed all his emotions.
"I will return the money to you." He continued, "Qin Wang, I know this little money is nothing to you, but since you are not repaying my favor, let's just leave it alone. I don't like owing people things."
Qin Wang was silent for a long time.
"I owe you more than just fifteen million." He said softly, "I just want to be nice to you...that's all."
Jian Ziyan's eyes trembled slightly, and a quiet ripple appeared.
Be nicer to him... Such simple words, but they are more likely to touch him than any sweet promises.
Jian Ziyan realized that he was soft-hearted. He took a deep breath and said in a cold tone, "Thank you, I appreciate it, but don't do it again in the future."
After saying that, he cut off the call without waiting for any response from the other party.
He still has a lot of things to do. Now that he has new plans, he can no longer confine himself to the identity of a novelist. But no matter what, he cannot let down the books he has already started. This is his responsibility to the characters and readers.
So the most important thing now is to work overtime to finish the book at hand.
Jian Ziyan thought so and immediately took action.
He kept writing until almost midnight, when he had to temporarily exit the fantasy world because of the numbness in his arms. He took off his glasses and headphones and was about to stretch to relieve his fatigue when he suddenly froze.
I don't know when it started raining outside.
Not small.
It's just that he was wearing headphones and hadn't opened the window, so he didn't hear it.
As soon as I took off my headphones, the sound of the rain kept hitting my eardrums. Even through the window, I could feel how heavy the rain was.
Jian Ziyan was just about to get up to cook himself a bowl of noodles. As he stood up, he glanced out the dark window, but suddenly he froze.
He suddenly leaned forward to the window and stared at a big tree downstairs.
There was a tall and silent shadow standing there without any cover. He didn't know if it was Jian Ziyan's illusion, but when he looked down, the black shadow moved slightly, as if it was also looking up.
