Chapter 20 The Sensible Xuexue
Lin Ran glanced at Su Peixue, greeted her, and then prepared to go back.
He smelled of alcohol on himself, and he didn't like others smelling of alcohol either. He believed in doing unto others what he wouldn't want done to himself, and he didn't want Su Peixue to smell the alcohol on him.
In particular, Su Peixue's childhood and adolescence, with her alcoholic gambling addict, must have left her with a great deal of psychological trauma.
Therefore, Lin Ran did not intend to let her smell alcohol, even just a little beer.
Seeing that Lin Ran was about to leave, Su Peixue ran out from behind the counter.
Lin Ran was about to light a cigarette when he saw Su Peixue come out. He was about to put out the fire when a gust of wind blew the lighter out.
Just as he was about to put the cigarettes away, Su Peixue ran up to him, and a fragrant breeze wafted over. The girl opened her clothes a little to shield Lin Ran from the wind.
Then he took out a lighter from his pocket, and with a click, brought it to Lin Ran's lips and lit the cigarette.
Lin Ran was stunned for a moment.
Does she know how lethal this action is to men?
She opened her coat to shield the man from the wind and even took out a lighter to light his cigarette. No man could resist that.
"Why are you in such a hurry to go back?"
After lighting her cigarette, Su Peixue puffed out her cheeks and asked, her voice sounding a little resentful.
Lin Ran put out his cigarette.
If the other person is willing to light a cigarette for her, then Lin Ran doesn't want the other person to smell the cigarette smoke she doesn't like.
"Because I smell strongly of alcohol, so as not to offend you," Lin Ran said truthfully.
Su Peixue suddenly leaned closer to her face and sniffed with her delicate nose: "No, there's a faint scent of herbs and trees."
As the girl spoke, her pure and pretty face drew closer and closer, and Lin Ran could even feel her sweet breath.
? ?
Why do I feel like she's flirting with me?
Lin Ran raised an eyebrow.
Su Peixue smiled slightly, pulled Lin Ran's sleeve and went into the small supermarket, taking out a thermos from under the counter.
"I knew you'd been drinking; this is a hangover soup I prepared for you."
Lin Ran was taken aback: "Where did you get this?"
"I made it myself, using my home kitchen."
Su Peixue took out her keys from her pocket and shook them.
Lin Ran was somewhat surprised.
What does Mom mean by this? She even got a set of house keys.
Su Peixue's face was slightly pink.
She felt that the scene was like a virtuous wife bringing her husband a hangover soup when he returned home from a social engagement.
Lin Ran finished his drink in a few gulps.
He only drank a little beer, which was nothing compared to Lin Ran's alcohol tolerance; he wasn't even slightly drunk.
However, since it was soup that Su Peixue had personally cooked, he drank it.
Seeing that Lin Ran had finished drinking it all, Su Peixue nodded in satisfaction and took the thermos to wash it.
"Lin Ran, I'd like to get a small advance on my money."
Su Peixue suddenly leaned over and said.
"Sorry, I almost forgot, you're short on money right now."
Lin Ran hadn't noticed this yet; she only remembered that it had already earned her more than 10,000 yuan, but she didn't expect that all the money was in stocks, and she probably only had a few yuan left in her pocket now.
Moreover, the phone is broken. Although the police station has collected the evidence, the phone is obviously beyond repair.
The main problem is that the repair cost would be more than the price of her old, broken second-hand phone, so it's definitely not as cost-effective as just buying a new one.
However, no particularly good phones have been released this year yet. I'll wait until September to buy Su Peixue a 6S.
"Take this phone as a temporary measure, and we'll buy you a new one when the new model is released in September."
Lin Ran brought his mother's 13 iPhone 5S from home. It's currently sitting in a drawer as a backup phone, and nobody uses it.
It's June 2015 now. Although this phone has been around for almost two years, it's not obsolete and its performance is still good.
Su Peixue has now learned to accept Lin Ran's kindness.
Since it was given by Lin Ran, I should accept it gladly. I should just keep this kindness in my heart.
Lin Ran withdrew another 2000 yuan in cash from her stock account and asked Su Peixue if it was enough.
Su Peixue said that was enough. She would put the 2000 yuan in the account and she was planning to write an IOU.
Lin Ran chuckled and patted her head, saying, "Are you stupid?" This 2000-plus yuan was originally her initial investment of 10,000 yuan, which she had earned in the past few days.
This surprised Su Peixue even more. In just three days, she had earned more than 2000 yuan.
Lin Ran corrected him, saying that he had now earned more than 3000.
After Lin Ran returned, Su Peixue didn't close the supermarket. Anyway, she wasn't sleeping and was playing on the computer. Keeping the store open might bring in more business and increase revenue.
Su Peixue hadn't done a live stream for a while, and finally had some free time to turn it on. There were originally about 100 people in the live stream room, but now there are only about fifty left.
The girl's innocent face suddenly collapsed.
It's so hard to make live streaming a success!
She had seen many people make a lot of money playing games, and she felt that she was also good at games and had a talent for it, so she wanted to make money in this line of work.
But to my surprise, after broadcasting for so long, the number of viewers in the live stream room has never exceeded 300. The biggest gift I received was a rocket, but because I don't know how to manage my fans, I never received a gift a second time.
When her boss asked her to turn on the camera, she felt that the other person was only interested in her face, which wasn't genuine and didn't mean they appreciated her skills.
It's obvious that Xuexue is quite stubborn in some ways.
She wants to be a technical streamer. Although she is a champion in the first region, it is obviously not enough because she does not have any special skills.
For a streamer to grow their career, it's even more important to be creative and produce entertaining content.
Of course, she's the type who holds a royal flush but doesn't know how to play it. Her pretty face is the ultimate bomb.
Those with better skills than her aren't as pretty, and those who are prettier... it seems Su Peixue's looks are second to none.
Other than that, it's just some card issuance, scattered here and there, earning a few hundred yuan a month.
She managed to finish her senior year of high school on those few hundred yuan; otherwise, given Zhai Daqiang's animalistic nature, he would never have given her any living expenses.
Su Peixue broadcasted for a while when suddenly someone signed up for a membership card in the live stream. As usual, she thanked them softly, but then she noticed that the ID of the person who signed up for the membership card was called Mu Muran.
Turn on the camera.
Lin Ran sent a comment.
Several comments immediately appeared in the live chat replying to Lin Ran.
[The guy upstairs is overthinking it. There was a time when a boss sent her rockets (gifts of virtual gifts) to get the female streamer to turn on her camera, and she refused!]
[Haha, you think you can get a girl to turn on her webcam just by signing up for a membership card? You should just appreciate her skills instead!]
[Xuexue's voice is quite nice. You should be grateful that you got a card and heard her thank you! Expecting her to turn on her webcam? Dream on!]
The comments were scrolling by when suddenly, the camera turned on, and a pure and stunningly beautiful face appeared obediently on the screen.
