After successfully 'capturing' a long-term female lead tool, Mu An returned to the classroom in a good mood.
Chu Youmeng hesitated to speak beside him.
Her stuttering, as if she were eating an ice pop, inexplicably made people want to bully her.
"I know I'm handsome, but you don't have to look at me like that!"
Mu An took a bite of the breakfast the girl had given him and pretended to be narcissistic while teasing her.
The girl's face turned slightly red as she whispered.
"What... were you doing just now?"
Mu An was slightly taken aback, then reached out to pinch the girl's soft little face.
She was so obviously jealous that if he couldn't see it, he would really be pretending to be foolish.
But as a professional villain, he naturally couldn't easily show mercy; he still had to harvest the emotional rewards!
"What's wrong? You're already getting jealous over someone who's not even mine?"
"I... am not!"
Chu Youmeng broke free from his teasing hand and quickly buried her head between her arms, her ears slightly red.
She didn't even know what was happening to her.
Anyway, seeing him with other girls made her inexplicably anxious!
What a strange feeling!
[From the girl's slight annoyance, emotional fluctuation +10, congratulations, you have received the reward [Proficiency +1000]!]
[From Chu Youmeng's shy emotional fluctuation +12, congratulations, you have received the reward [Super Authentic Aged Vinegar *5]!]
——————
"If you reward me, I'll tell you what I was doing just now?"
Mu An continued to tease the little girl.
He knew her shy nature and how to better harvest emotional rewards from her.
"What do you think? This request shouldn't be too much, right? After all, I saved your life yesterday..."
Mu An whispered with a smile in the girl's ear.
It was all about ambiguity and... moral coercion!
The warm breath tickled her skin, instantly making the girl's ears flush.
Even her cheeks were affected, becoming extremely hot.
It was as if there were flames burning within her.
"Reward... reward?"
Under such a powerful offensive from the enemy, Chu Youmeng couldn't even articulate her words.
She felt like a soldier who had been defeated and lost their helmet and armor.
She simply didn't raise her head and directly fled into her self-built 'sandcastle' (books).
It was unclear whether she was too scared to face anyone or too shy to show her face!
[From Chu Youmeng's shy emotional fluctuation +10, congratulations, you have received the reward [Proficiency +2000]!]
[From Chu Youmeng's shy emotional fluctuation +11, congratulations, you have received the reward [Physique +1]!]
[From Chu Youmeng's bashful emotional fluctuation +13, congratulations, you have received the reward [Stamina +5]!]
...
Seeing the enemy's defeat and the explosion of emotional rewards, Mu An nodded in satisfaction.
Indeed, only teasing a female lead like Chu Youmeng was interesting!
With just a little effort, the emotional rewards kept pouring out!
No wonder she was his self-proclaimed 'perfect tool female lead', thumbs up for you!
"Don't worry! It's nothing serious!"
"It was just that Su, the campus flower, wanted to treat me to breakfast, but you know I'm not someone who can't afford breakfast."
"Besides, with the breakfast you bought me, how could I want hers? I just spent a little time refusing her!"
Mu An smiled as he took a bite of the fried dough stick the girl had bought.
To better maintain a friendly relationship with the 'perfect female lead tool', he explained a bit.
Of course, this explanation was just a lie he made up!
On the other side, the girl's thoughts were much simpler.
The first thing she thought of was not 'why did the campus flower invite him to breakfast'.
But rather that he had really 'seriously' explained it to her!
The girl didn't know where her inexplicable happiness came from.
But it was like eating honey, and a sweet smile unconsciously appeared on her lips!
[From the girl's happy emotional fluctuation +10, congratulations, you have received the reward [Proficiency +1000]!]
[Chu Youmeng felt a bit of sweetness, emotional fluctuation +12, congratulations, you have received the reward [Super Popular Lollipop *10]!]
[Super Popular Lollipop *10]: As long as you take out this lollipop, no child in the world can refuse you!
Affection and goodwill automatically +1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1....
——————
Mu An shook his head slightly.
The girl was too easy to deceive!
Fortunately, she encountered him, who was simply looking to harvest rewards from her.
Otherwise, if she got sold, she might still be counting money for others!
....
On the other side.
Su Zhirou felt very... strange?
Having completed the task assigned by her father, and with the family company no longer facing bankruptcy, she should be happy.
But thinking about her 'bleak and dark' future, she couldn't feel happy at all.
"Zhirou, are you okay?"
"That useless rich second generation didn't do anything out of line to you, right?!"
Bai Zihao, who had just returned from the infirmary, asked nervously.
He was trying to maintain his calm and composed image, not wanting to appear too anxious and tense.
However, thinking about how his goddess had been with that bastard for a while, he couldn't help but feel nervous.
But he had also noticed the way the girl had just walked. Based on his years of experience hanging out in bars and nightclubs, she probably hadn't been harmed yet! She was still within a safe range. Otherwise, she would definitely be limping a bit while walking.
"I'm fine!"
Su Zhirou nodded, but the coldness and distance in her tone were clearly more pronounced. If it weren't for Bai Zihao suddenly popping up just now, she might not have been so 'unlucky'! She wouldn't have been bullied so much by that guy Mu An.
"Zhirou, you don't have to be afraid of him threatening you!"
"As long as you give me some time, I can help you solve all your troubles!"
Bai Zihao confidently promised.
"Just you? You can help me solve all my troubles? Haha, it would be good enough if you don't continue to make things worse for me!"
Su Zhirou coldly shook her head. As for whether he could help her solve her troubles, that was just talk!
It was precisely because she had some understanding of him that she knew there was a huge class divide between them, with him coming from a grassroots background. Her casual monthly allowance might be the equivalent of his family's annual income!
"Zhirou, believe me! I really have the ability to help you solve all your problems!"
Bai Zihao insisted. After being beaten by Mu An in front of everyone, he urgently needed to demonstrate his capabilities to restore his image!
"Don't joke around! The troubles I face are not something an ordinary person like you can imagine!"
"I'll put it simply: I need tens of millions of dollars right now. Can you come up with that much money?"
"Do you know what tens of millions means? That's money that your entire family would take decades to earn through hard work!"
Su Zhirou was gradually losing her patience.
But for some reason, unlike usual, her pride kept her from getting angry or starting to curse. Instead, she felt some strange fondness for this guy and couldn't bring herself to say anything too harsh.
Maybe it was because he had saved her once?
She wasn't quite sure.
If Mu An were here, he would definitely understand. Because that was the damned 'protagonist's halo'!
On the other side.
Hearing this, Bai Zihao's heart skipped a beat, and he was filled with confusion.
Tens of millions of dollars?
Since she mentioned it, it was very likely that she was really facing such a situation!
And the only place he could think of that would require tens of millions was Su Zhirou's father's company!
But that shouldn't be the case!
From his memories of the future, he knew that there were problems with Su Zhirou's father's company.
But it should still be some time before it collapsed, at least after Su Zhirou graduated!
Could it be that it happened early?
Bai Zihao muttered to himself, and the invisible sense of urgency in his heart grew stronger.
Money!
He needed money too much right now!
Without money in hand, he felt a serious sense of unease!
"If you believe me, I can help you earn tens of millions of dollars very soon!"
Bai Zihao made a shocking statement, starting with the mention of tens of millions.
Even Su Zhirou was stunned, almost laughing in anger.
You should know that tens of millions is not the price of cabbage at a market!
Is it something you can just earn?
Isn't this a joke?
Even someone like her father, a business tycoon, worked hard for decades to build a company worth tens of millions!
"I recently found a promising virtual currency, and I've received insider information that it will definitely explode soon."
"When that happens, its value will multiply by hundreds!"
"But I currently lack the capital. If I had enough capital, we could even make tens of millions in one go!"
Bai Zihao quietly shared his thoughts.
That's right, after facing setbacks, he finally turned his attention to Qubi Coin!
This thing would skyrocket in a few decades!
He knew there would be a significant surge soon, and buying in now would allow him to make a hefty profit!
This was a historical trend; he couldn't possibly fail again!
"This..."
Su Zhirou's expression became uncertain.
She instinctively didn't believe that there could be such an easy way to make money!
But somehow, there seemed to be a force telling her to trust him!
Her family was also on the brink of bankruptcy, so taking a gamble might just turn a bicycle into a motorcycle.
And perhaps she could take the opportunity to get rid of that 'devil' Mu An?
If that were the case, it didn't seem like a bad idea to try...
"Virtual currency? Are you really sure that kind of thing can make money?"
Su Zhirou frowned slightly, still somewhat skeptical and hesitant.
But deep down, she was starting to consider the idea of trying.
"Of course! We're friends; would I lie to you?"
"If it doesn't work out, you can consider it a loan! I'll pay you back later!"
Bai Zihao was naturally confident about something he believed would succeed 100%.
"Loan? That's not necessary! You saved my life back then and never asked for a reward."
"Today, I choose to trust you once!"
"I'll take out all the pocket money I've saved over the years to give to you, and I hope you won't let me down!"
"It's not much, probably around 40,000 to 50,000! How much do you think you can earn with that?"
Su Zhirou was still tempted.
It might be possible to make a fortune from a small investment, and whether it was true or not, it was worth a try!
If she made money, everyone would be happy!
If she didn't, she could consider it a way to repay the life-saving grace from years ago!
"With 40,000 to 50,000, making around 6 to 7 million should be no problem!"
Bai Zihao gave a relatively conservative answer.
In reality, it could be even more!
In this era where there was gold everywhere, you could easily pick it up if you bent down!
Moreover, with the capital, making money would be incredibly easy for him!
Su Zhirou couldn't help but widen her eyes.
She held her breath, her gaze secretly glancing at Mu An, who was sleeping on the table not far away.
If this were true, while this money might not completely solve her father's company's problems, it would definitely help with the urgent situation!
Then, when she faced that devil, she wouldn't have to be so humble anymore...
"Faced with the purchasing plan for Cupid Coins proposed by the protagonist Bai Zihao, Su Zhirou was moved."
"She fantasized about making a lot of money to help her father's company through a tough time, and even seizing the opportunity to break free from your control, perhaps even turning the tables and becoming the proud little princess like a white swan again!"
[Su Zhirou's emotional fluctuation +20, congratulations, you have received the reward [Plot Fragment *1]!]
——————
Mu An flipped over and continued to sleep, but the corners of his mouth slightly rose at this moment.
After waiting for so long, had he finally reached this plot?
He wasn't afraid of the protagonist making money; he was afraid the protagonist wouldn't fall into the trap!
After all, his [God-level Stock Market Simulator] had long been 'itching' for action!
When the time came, he would definitely make the other party deeply experience what it meant to lose everything!
Moreover, this quasi-maid of his seemed to still harbor some unrealistic 'fantasies.'
Want to turn the tables and become the master?
Heh, just wait to be 'tortured' by him!
