Chapter 14: This Woman Has a Crush on Me
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
In a dessert shop near the school, Chen Qiyue and Wang Xinqiu were sitting opposite each other.
Chen Qiyue frowned slightly. “Although you sit in front of me in the classroom, you don’t usually talk to me. We’re not familiar with each other.”
“Why are you looking for me?”
Moreover, she had always looked at him strangely.
At first, he thought that the girl opposite him had a crush on him. After all, he was quite good-looking, had good grades, and was tall. He was definitely the number one choice for a boyfriend.
However, Wang Xinqiu always looked at him with her nose in the air. Occasionally, she would be sarcastic.
However, when he got 98th place, her attitude towards him softened a little.
He thought that this girl was going to confess her love, but when he filled in her application form, she looked like she had been hit hard.
Chen Qiyue was finally sure that she was not secretly in love with him, but jealous of him.
It was also a sin to be too outstanding.
However, at this moment, Wang Xinqiu was no longer as cynical as before. Instead, she was wearing a light yellow dress and looking at him with a smile.
“We’re neighbors in the classroom after all. Don’t treat me as an outsider. I was too shocked the day I filled in my application. Don’t treat me as an outsider.”
Chen Qiyue smiled awkwardly. He was now 100% certain that this girl did not have a crush on him.
“Alright, what’s the job?” He pulled a long face. Since she didn’t have a crush on him, what was she trying to do with this attitude?
Wang Xinqiu’s smile froze, and anger flashed across her eyes. Then, she coughed lightly and slowly picked up the milk tea in front of her. She took a sip to hide her emotions.
“It’s like this. One of my uncles just came out of the illusion realm, but when he reached the edge of the illusion realm, he accidentally attracted the attention of the surrounding wild Fantastic Beasts.”
“He’s hiding somewhere now and needs someone to pick him up.”
When Chen Qiyue heard this, he almost spat out a mouthful of milk tea. “You want me, whose Fantastic Beast egg just hatched, to go to the edge of the illusion realm to pick up your uncle? What kind of international joke is this?”
The corner of Wang Xinqiu’s mouth twitched and she coughed lightly, “You misunderstood. I’m talking about not you, but your Fantastic Beast. Don’t you have a B-rank Fantastic Beast? Let it go and pick up my uncle.”
“No, ugly says,” Chen Qiyue rejected immediately.
Wang Xinqiu’s eyes flashed with anger. “What ugly says? Am I ugly?!”
“No, my Fantastic Beast is called the Giant Ugly Fish. If she refuses to go, isn’t it ugly says no?” Chen Qiyue said expressionlessly.
Wang Xinqiu: …
“Alright, let’s not talk about this. What I mean is that I just need your Giant Ugly Fish to provide some Fantastic Beast energy.”
Wang Xinqiu took a deep breath and suppressed the anger in her heart. If it wasn’t for the fact that she only knew that Chen Qiyue had a B-rank Fantastic Beast, she wouldn’t have come to look for him.
Of course, another reason was that Chen Qiyue was cheaper…
“My uncle has a teleportation device on him, but because he’s surrounded by all kinds of Fantastic Beasts, we can’t locate the teleportation device, so we need a Fantastic Beast at least B-level. It needs to use its own energy to activate the teleportation device and connect it to the device in my uncle’s hand.”
Wang Xinqiu finished speaking in one breath and finally explained her purpose.
“I want you to do this. I can pay you 100,000 yuan for this.”
Chen Qiyue finally understood. So that was the reason.
“Your uncle is quite impressive. He actually has a teleportation device,” Chen Qiyue praised subconsciously.
Then, he saw Wang Xinqiu looking at him in confusion. “Everyone who goes to the illusion realm will bring a teleportation device. Otherwise, how can they come back?”
“Hahaha, is that so? I was just joking, hahaha.” Chen Qiyue laughed dryly. “But 100,000 is too little. 200,000!”
“Deal!” Wang Xinqiu praised herself in her heart. Previously, she thought that it would take at least 300,000 yuan to finish the deal.
In reality, she could also issue missions in the Fantastic Beast Alliance. Any B-rank Fantastic Beast could do the job.
However, the missions of the B-rank Fantastic Beasts required rewards of more than 500,000 yuan. Recently, her family was tight on funds and could only fork out more than 300,000 yuan.
That was why she came to Chen Qiyue in private. She did not expect this guy to only ask for 200,000 yuan, which made her heave a sigh of relief.
Chen Qiyue’s heart was beating wildly. Damn, 200,000 yuan!
However, for safety’s sake, he still had to ask.
“At that time, my Fantastic Beast will only transport a little Fantastic Beast energy, right? How much HZ energy in total?”
His baby had just been born. A Grade B infant could only output 10 Hz of energy at a time. Otherwise, it would hurt the foundation of the Fantastic Beast.
“3 Hz will be fine. It’s just a location. It’s not a big deal. Why are you making a fuss?” Wang Xinqiu rolled her eyes at Chen Qiyue.
Now that this guy had agreed, there was no need to smile at him.
Chen Qiyue raised his eyebrows and looked at Wang Xinqiu, whose expression had changed.
Could it be that this girl really had a crush on him?
It was such a simple matter, yet she was still thinking about him.
Compared to the stiff and ugly smile from before, Chen Qiyue felt that it was normal for her to turn her head away and not look at him.
Was she shy?
As expected, he was still as lovable as ever.
However, it was a pity that she was not his type.
Chen Qiyue nodded indifferently. “That’s good. You said 3 Hz. If it exceeds that, I can stop my Giant Ugly Fish’s positioning at any time.”
With that, he stood up and left. When he reached the entrance of the dessert shop, he stopped in his tracks.
“Send the exact time and place to my phone. I’ll bring my Giant Ugly Fish there.”
Wang Xinqiu pouted as she sat there. “Humph, putting on an act.”
Although she said that, she still quickly took out her phone and dialed a number.
...
“Hello, Uncle Qin, I’ve found a B-rank Beast Tamer to help. Yes, send the exact time and location to my phone.”
Chen Qiyue hummed a tune as he walked home.
People were really in high spirits when they encountered happy events.
He had just been short of money and now he had a chance to earn extra money. Now, he was no longer worried about his child’s food.
On the way home, he took a detour to the Fantastic Beast supermarket and bought three portions of nutrient solution.
As soon as Chen Qiyue reached the door of his house, a fat fish bumped into his arms.
“Baby, you miss me? Look, what did I buy for you?”
Chen Qiyue hugged Darling Fish with one hand and carried the bag with the other. He entered the house and closed the door with his heel.
He first poured the water in the small bathtub, then replaced it with nutrient solutions.
Although he had never seen a Giant Ugly Fish using nutrient solutions as a nest, but…
Forget it. Who asked her to like it?
...
Seeing that two-thirds of the small bathtub was filled with nutrient solutions, the Giant Ugly Fish happily went in.
The corners of Chen Qiyue’s mouth curled up slightly as he looked at his child dotingly.
The landlady’s daughter and Wang Xinqiu were nothing compared to the child.
At that moment, his phone vibrated.
Chen Qiyue took it out and took a look. His eyes immediately flickered.
“Tonight at six o’clock, at the entrance of Jingyuan Estate in the East District. It’s a white bus with the license plate EU893.”
