Chapter 613: Scumbag and Five Hundred Dollars! (First update, please subscribe!)

Su Quan raised his eyebrows in surprise and asked Luxi, who had returned, with a smile: "Why did you come back?"

"It's to save you."

Luxi pouted, and a pistol appeared in her hand, pointing directly at the man in the back seat.

"Hey."

"Immediately! Right now! Get out of the car!"

The man in the back seat's expression changed. He hesitated for a few seconds and said: "Don't shoot, don't shoot, I'm leaving, I'm leaving..."

The man opened the car door while holding the gun in a standoff, got out facing forward, stepped back a few steps, and then turned and rushed into the crowd, running into a nearby alley.

"Phew... phew..."

"Damn it!"

The man panted and cursed, and then there was a bang, and blood splattered instantly.

He exploded!

"Drive, drive quickly!"

Luxi urged in a low voice. After the car drove far away, she let out a long sigh and slumped down.

"Phew... you saved me once, and I saved you once. We're even!"

The corners of Su Quan's mouth rose slightly: "Even? Fine, if you say we're even, then we're even. But I'm curious, didn't you run away? Why did you come back?"

"Do you have any idea why I ran away? If I didn't run, should I wait for you to take me home? No, a rich man like you probably wouldn't easily take a woman from outside home; you'd probably go straight to a hotel, right?"

Luxi blinked and preempted him: "Don't deny it. Do you dare say you didn't have those thoughts about me?"

Su Quan laughed dumbly: "I've been very gentlemanly, haven't I?"

"A so-called gentleman is just a wolf with patience; a so-called lady is just a fox with a plan—people nowadays are all too hypocritical."

Luxi pouted, looking cynical and realistic.

"A poor man's gentleman is worthless, a rich man's rogue is exceptionally charming," Su Quan added casually.

Luxi glanced at Su Quan: "You are quite charming, and as a person, you're not bad, not bad at all. Otherwise, I wouldn't have risked saving you."

After finishing, she took out a cigarette, put it in her mouth, pointed the muzzle of the gun at the cigarette, and pulled the trigger.

"Click!"

A flame sprayed out from the muzzle and lit the cigarette.

Her gun was fake; it was a pistol-shaped lighter.

No wonder she kept saying she risked saving Su Quan, and why she was slumped in the chair afterward.

"You really are incredibly witty!" Su Quan praised.

Luxi put her feet on the center console, smoking, and said lazily and triumphantly: "Nothing is better than just right."

That statement was indeed fitting for the situation just now.

The breeze was gentle, the cigarette smoke curled, the fiery sun was ahead, and a lazy beauty was by his side. In this scene, at this moment, there was an indescribable sense of comfort.

"Hey." Su Quan suddenly spoke.

Luxi gave a lazy "hmm" like a cat.

"Do you have a boyfriend?"

"No."

"Don't you feel lonely?"

"I've never felt lonely. To put it romantically, I am completely free."

Su Quan glanced at her and smiled: "Cool."

"What about you?" Luxi asked back.

"I don't have one either."

"I don't believe it." Luxi snorted: "How could a man as rich and handsome as you, who is also not bad as a person, not have a girlfriend?"

"Girlfriend? Didn't you just say boyfriend?"

"..."

Luxi rolled her eyes speechlessly: "Don't play dumb, I asked about a girlfriend."

Su Quan said with a light laugh: "In the past, carriages and horses were slow, and letters were far away; one life was only enough to love one person. Now that transportation and information are so developed, I think one can love a few more."

"Scumbag."

"Hmm."

"Is that it? Don't you plan to defend yourself?"

"What's there to defend?" Su Quan said dismissively: "Love comes from willingness, things pass without regret, don't let down the encounter, don't talk about owing. Isn't this good?"

Luxi nodded in agreement: "As long as you can justify it to yourself, leave the rest to karma."

"..."

Su Quan hissed. This little punk was not only witty and realistic, but her tongue was also quite sharp.

"Every cause has an effect, and your karma is me."

Luxi gave a "tch" and didn't speak again.

For a long, long time, the car had been driving aimlessly for a long way, and Luxi suddenly said: "Five hundred dollars."

"Hmm?" Su Quan didn't react for a moment.

Luxi turned her head to look out the window: "I don't have money to pay the rent."

Five hundred dollars?

No money to pay the rent?

Put together, the meaning is...

Su Quan was a bit surprised, but also felt it was a matter of course. Punk girl, this thing is just like playing rock; living in poverty is the norm.

Besides, don't think five hundred dollars is a small amount.

Let's put it this way: the exclusive Spider-Man photos Peter Parker sold to the Daily Bugle were only a hundred or so dollars each.

When Peter Parker was in a financial crisis, the money Aunt May gave him was only twenty dollars.

When the fledgling Peter Parker participated in a cage fight to buy a second-hand sports car to date Mary Jane, the prize money was three thousand dollars, but he only got one hundred dollars in the end.

From this, it can be seen that five hundred dollars is already a significant amount for people living at the bottom of society.

Su Quan didn't tease her for calling him a scumbag one moment and asking for five hundred dollars the next. It was clear that this decision was very difficult for her.

In fact, no one has any secrets in front of Su Quan.

Luxi is the kind of person who says, "I smoke, I drink, I perm my hair, I get tattoos, I curse, but I'm a good girl."

"You don't want to? Then pretend I didn't say anything." After a brief silence, Luxi said with feigned calmness.

Su Quan smiled and said: "You're in a band, right?"

"Yeah."

"A private band, interested? I have a very excellent lead singer here. If you're interested, I'll cover all your food, clothing, housing, transportation, and entertainment, and there's a generous pocket money... salary every month!"

Luxi turned to look at Su Quan: "You let it slip, didn't you?"

Calling pocket money a salary, heh, I'm too embarrassed to expose you? Are you recruiting band members? You are...

Hmph.

Luxi refused flatly: "Not interested."

"Don't you want to hear about the benefits?"

"No, my freedom is priceless!"

"Fine."

Su Quan didn't force it and just turned the steering wheel, changing direction.

The next day, early morning.

Su Quan teleported away silently, and the next second, he appeared in his car in the hotel parking lot.

Since she had already made her choice, there was no need to dwell on other things. He wasn't a sentimental person!

Sitting in the car, Su Quan didn't start it, but narrowed his eyes, sensing Galactus outside a distant galaxy, and then slammed his psychic power over there.

I'll allow you to develop secretly, but that doesn't mean I'll ignore you forever. Occasionally attacking suddenly to "farm" you can also add some sense of urgency to him.
