Cheng Mingyue kept muttering in her heart, this Lu Chen is too cunning.
He said it so nicely now, but he didn't admit it later. What could she do to him?
Moreover, she also knew the principle of killing and robbing, and being in possession of a treasure is a crime. If Lu Chen had any bad intentions towards her, she, a weak woman, would be helpless and could only be bullied.
After a long while, Lu Chen saw that Cheng Mingyue kept her head down and remained silent, and the light in his eyes suddenly dimmed.
After a long while, his voice was low and pleading: "Cheng Mingyue, I beg you. I don't ask you to heal my leg, just save my grandfather.
After my parents went abroad, although my uncle's family promised to take care of me, it was okay at the beginning when my grandparents were around, and they still cared about me. But as soon as my grandparents left, they took me less and less seriously, and most of the money my parents sent back was spent on their own children.
If my grandparents hadn't secretly helped me, I might have been tortured to death by that heartless guy.
Now, as long as you can help me save my grandfather, I will agree to any conditions you put forward."
Lu Chen was originally a person as gentle as the breeze and bright moon, but now he hung his head and looked at Cheng Mingyue pitifully, which made her heart tremble.
Cheng Mingyue was thinking about a lot of things just now.
Now that her secret has been discovered by Lu Chen, the only way for her to ensure that her secret will not be leaked is to flatter Lu Chen.
Moreover, considering Lu Chen's sinister nature, as long as he is still alive, he will definitely dominate the world in the future.
With such thick thighs, if she doesn't hug him tightly now, when will she wait?
Besides, she was in charge of a space full of vegetables, but she could only eat cabbage and potatoes for every meal. She felt so depressed.
It’s good that Lu Chen knew this, so that she could take food out of the space without any worries.
Thinking of this, Cheng Mingyue blinked her big eyes and looked at Lu Chen: "To be honest, I really don't know how to save your grandfather. How about we find time to go to the mountain to pick some herbs and boil them back. If they are useful for your grandfather's illness, we can go and pick more next time."
Listen to the words and the sounds of the gongs and drums. As soon as Cheng Mingyue opened her mouth, Lu Chen understood that she was willing to save his grandfather. He just didn't know what the effect would be, so he had to wait and see.
"Cheng Mingyue, I have to thank you no matter what." Lu Chen looked at Cheng Mingyue's eyes very seriously and thanked her sincerely.
This made Cheng Mingyue feel a little uncomfortable.
She used to be a typical homebody, a super homebody, with very few friends around her, and almost no friends of the opposite sex.
Although she is beautiful and has many admirers, she really doesn't know how to deal with boys.
So when she was in college, her roommates all started sweet romances, but she only went between the library, cafeteria, and dormitory every day, without fail.
I had just graduated from college and hadn’t even found a job when the apocalypse broke out.
So her life is like a blank slate.
Being looked at so intently by Lu Chen, Cheng Mingyue suddenly felt shy and her face flushed red.
"Please clean these up later. I'm going back to the house first."
After saying this, Cheng Mingyue ran away like a little rabbit.
Lu Chen looked at Cheng Mingyue's fleeing back, and the curve of his mouth became more and more upward.
Since Lu Chen discovered that she had a space, Cheng Mingyue no longer hid it. She took out a cucumber and a tomato from the space and handed them to Lu Chen.
"You can sleep outside tonight. I'll go to the space to read for a while."
As soon as she finished speaking, she met Lu Chen's dark eyes. Somehow, she added, "And your leg, the bone was not properly connected after it was broken. If you want to recover, you can only break the bone and reconnect it. Maybe there is still a chance of recovery."
After saying that, Cheng Mingyue plunged into the space and took a comfortable bath in the spiritual spring.
Cheng Mingyue felt a little bored while taking a bath, so she picked up a high school physics textbook and started reading.
The night was peaceful and calm.
The next morning, when Cheng Mingyue got up, Lu Chen had already heated up the potato pancakes left over from yesterday.
After washing up, Cheng Mingyue grabbed the potato pancakes on the table and started to eat them.
Lu Chen said, "Don't take the cucumbers and tomatoes you gave me yesterday so carelessly anymore. Anyone who has tasted them knows they are not ordinary goods. They could very well bring you disaster."
Cheng Mingyue nodded obediently, then took out a cucumber from the space and handed it to Lu Chen, asking, "If I take a cucumber like this to sell on the black market, will it be okay?"
When Lu Chen heard the word "black market", his eyes darkened and his brows furrowed slightly, but in the end he said nothing.
Lu Chen broke the cucumber into two halves, took a light bite, and suddenly, his brows relaxed.
"This cucumber is far inferior to the one you gave me last night. But even if cucumbers like this are circulated outside, people will just think they are better than ordinary cucumbers. There won't be any trouble."
After Lu Chen finished speaking, he looked at Cheng Mingyue and continued seriously, "You don't need to go to the black market. The waters there are too deep. It's no exaggeration to say that they eat people without leaving any bones. If you really want to sell it, I can help you find a way."
Cheng Mingyue pouted. "I don't really want to sell it, but now I need a ticket to buy anything. My pockets are cleaner than my face. I don't have anything. I can't always live on the little things my parents give me. I have to buy something else."
Lu Chen didn't say anything, turned around and went into the house. After a while, he came out with a rag bag and handed it to Cheng Mingyue.
"There's money and tickets here. You can spend them however you like and buy whatever you want."
Cheng Mingyue's eyes widened.
She had felt that Lu Chen was unusual since last night, but she had never expected that this guy had hidden so much money!
Cheng Mingyue roughly counted it. The thick stack of Great Unity banknotes, plus the scattered Mao Zedong notes, was at least 1,000 yuan.
There were all kinds of tickets, such as oil tickets, grain tickets, meat tickets, cloth tickets, bicycle tickets, watch tickets...
This guy just threw it to her without blinking an eye?!
However, Cheng Mingyue put the money back into the bag, packed it up and handed it to Lu Chen.
"Even if you have tens of thousands of dollars now, it's useless. Everyone in the village knows that you're so poor that you eat tree bark. I've just been separated from my family, so even if I have money, I can't spend it. I still have to find a way to earn some money honestly."
Cheng Mingyue blinked and continued, "I was thinking of submitting an article to a newspaper. Now I have some ideas. I'll write an article and submit it today to try. If it really works, it can be considered a good way to make money."
Lu Chen nodded, but didn't take the cloth bag that Cheng Mingyue handed over. Instead, he said casually, "The money is yours now. If it's inconvenient for you to spend it now, just put it away and spend it later."
After saying that, he walked out of the yard and went to work.
