Chapter 8

~7 min read 1,335 words

As Lin Xiuyuan's figure disappeared from sight, Krystal on the chair said softly, "Unnie, do you believe what this boy said?"

Facing this question, Jessica lowered her head and pinched the paper that was a bit yellowed due to 'age', "The handwriting on this IOU is correct, the photo taken when writing it is also correct, and the time and place match. Now the only problem is that I forgot."

If it were just an IOU, Jessica would actually still be a bit suspicious.

But IOU + photo taken when writing the IOU, plus the information being correct, multiplied together, she already believed it 90%.

As for the remaining layer of doubt, that only left the possibility of seeing a ghost.

Krystal nodded, agreeing with her view, "Yeah, actually 20 million isn't much, even if it's really a scam, it's no big deal."

"Yeah, if this is true, the person is just waiting for this to live."

Chuckling, Jessica lowered her head and looked at the IOU in her hand, her memories beginning to drift, and she couldn't help but recall some past events.

Krystal, noticing her contemplation, didn't disturb her, lowered her head to drink coffee, and waited for the boy to return.

And at this time, Lin Xiuyuan in the toilet was scolded by Zheng Xiuyan in the car because of the trickling sound, "Ya, can't you tell me before you go to the bathroom? You really don't treat me as an outsider?"

"Ah, sorry, sorry."

Lin Xiuyuan, who didn't take it to heart, responded casually.

Zheng Xiuyan, who heard this tone in the car outside, rolled her eyes fiercely, secretly muttering in her heart: If it weren't for that door, if it weren't for the news in this space-time, she wouldn't want to be with this guy no matter what.

Once, twice, it drove her crazy.

But thinking this in her heart, her mouth was curious, "By the way, just one night, how did you make that note look old?"

"Isn't that something anyone with hands can do?"

Lin Xiuyuan, who made a small joke, explained hurriedly after discovering that the breathing sound in the headset had become heavier.

"Actually, it's very simple. You just need to throw the note into a tray, brush it with coffee liquid, and sprinkle some coffee granules on it. Then push it into a preheated oven and bake it for a few minutes, and you can immediately get the approximate effect."

The first sentence Zheng Xiuyan said after hearing the answer was, "Lin Xiuyuan, what did you do before?"

"Ah? I was a student before, then dropped out, and then ran to Seoul to work and make money."

"Then how do you know this?" Zheng Xiuyan inexplicably thought of some movie clips.

Immediately, she slapped her own face.

"No, this is very basic junior high school chemistry knowledge, there's no technical content at all."

"..."

Inside the car, Zheng Xiuyan angrily punched the back of the seat, really wanting to hit someone.

In the headset, Lin Xiuyuan's voice continued, "By the way, the matter after going out in a bit, it's up to you."

She, who had been angry in vain, replied immediately.

"I know, just don't let the cat out of the bag."

A few minutes later.

Lin Xiuyuan, who returned to his seat, looked at the Jessica sisters opposite him. Even though he hid it well, he was still noticed by them for the curiosity and exploration in his eyes.

They had encountered this kind of look too many times, and there were even worse ones.

So the two never expected that the other party was actually comparing them to the other pair in 2013.

However, Jessica didn't pay too much attention; her goal was just to pay back the money, and she didn't want to have too much entanglement with the other party, "Mr. Lin, regarding the debt, how would you like to transfer it?"

Lin Xiuyuan, who heard this, straightened his back, "That, I have a small request here."

"Huh? What is it?" Jessica asked.

"Because of some special reasons, my job at my uncle's place is gone, so I want to ask if there is any work you can recommend. You know, giving a man a fish is not as good as teaching him how to fish. Debt money will always run out one day, only making money is the kingly way."

Although Lin Xiuyuan's eyes were very sincere, his words still made Jessica frown slightly.

Because she just wanted to pay back the money, and didn't want to be entangled at all.

So even though introducing a job was very simple, she still changed to a method to politely decline, "I'm sorry, I don't have any free work I can give you for the time being, but I can help you ask others."

Once this answer came out, Zheng Xiuyan's voice came from Lin Xiuyuan's headset, "Look at Xiujing, ask her if she can recommend one, even if it's just a handyman assistant, be sincere."

Although the words in his ear made Lin Xiuyuan puzzled, he still followed the other party's arrangement and turned to Krystal, looking at her, "That, I wonder if Krystal you have..."

Before letting Lin Xiuyuan finish speaking, Jessica took the initiative to interrupt his words, her tone calm, "Mr. Lin, we have other things to be busy with. If it's convenient, please leave an account for me, and I'll transfer it to you later, is that okay?"

Inside the car, Zheng Xiuyan muttered after hearing this, "Sure enough, the same look."

Then she continued to direct Lin Xiuyuan, "Don't worry about her, keep talking."

So Lin Xiuyuan, facing Jessica's eyes that were flickering with light, said the words Zheng Xiuyan taught him in a hurry.

This made Krystal, who had been sitting quietly since Lin Xiuyuan came in, a bit at a loss. She didn't expect this boy to ask her after her Unnie refused him.

Jessica was also a bit impatient now.

Fortunately, after Krystal pulled her Unnie's small hand under the table, she replied, "I'm also not sure if there is any free work to introduce to Mr. Lin. If it's convenient, please leave a number, and if there is, I'll contact you, how about that?"

"Hurry up and agree."

"Thank you, good people live a safe life."

This last sentence was something Lin Xiuyuan learned from Douyin recently, but it directly amused Krystal, and she laughed out loud, "Hahaha, what an interesting answer."

On the contrary, Jessica still had that cold face, and then repeated the official tone from before once again.

At this time, the voice in the headset also let Lin Xiuyuan stop while he was ahead; the first contact was already very good.

So after leaving an account and a mobile phone number, he got up and left the cafe.

And after seeing his figure leave, Jessica picked up the paper with the number and looked at Krystal, "Are you really planning to introduce him to work?"

"Isn't it quite interesting? If you don't like it, Unnie, I'll help."

"Ya, don't be rebellious in this regard."

"I'm really not, just thought there was a position that was indeed suitable for him. And the impression right now is also okay, except for being a bit reckless, the rest are all quite good."

Hearing this, Jessica put the note in her arms without hesitation, "Forget it, I'll introduce it. You just busy yourself with your work, don't worry about things here."

"Unnie~"

"Yeah."

The two didn't know that outside the side glass window, Zheng Xiuyan was sitting in the SUV and filmed this scene, and after Lin Xiuyuan circled around and got into the car later, she showed him the video.

And indicated, "The first step is done."

Lin Xiuyuan, who finished watching the video, exclaimed, "Flanking tactic?"
