Chapter 142

I can't just stand by and do nothing........

No matter what the price is..... I have to help them......

But what should I do?

What I can do now, my only advantage.......

Bai Bai Su Su stood up slowly, wiped away her tears, and her gaze became firm again.

She remembered.

Her advantage.......

She still had this body.........

If she used her body as the price to ask Tiger Lord to delay the deadline for repaying the usury, he should be willing, right......

As long as the debt collection isn't too tight, her family members can breathe a sigh of relief.

If that’s the case, I believe Aunt’s husband will cancel that crazy plan, and then no new victims will appear.......

However, thinking that she might be......

Bai Bai Su Su felt a wave of despair in her heart, her face turned pale, and she slumped to the ground.

At this moment.

How she wished her true love would come to save her!

Unfortunately, fairy tales are all lies.......

Looking at the crying people not far away, Bai Bai Su Su took a deep breath, her eyes became firm again, no longer confused.

She took out her phone and called Lin Xuan again.

Of course.

This time it wasn't to annoy Lin Xuan and borrow money.

But to ask him if he had Tiger Lord’s contact information.

Beep, beep, beep——

While waiting for the call to connect, Bai Bai Su Su suppressed the fear in her heart and kept hypnotizing herself.

If sacrificing me alone can save so many families from misfortune......

Then this sacrifice is very worth it......

Su Family Manor.

Lin Xuan had finally dispelled everyone’s misunderstandings and was just letting out a sigh of relief when...

"Ding-a-ling! Master, you have a call~~"

(⊙_⊙)?

It couldn't be her again, could it???

Lin Xuan raised an eyebrow, pulled his Huawei phone from his pocket, and glanced at the screen. Instantly, he wore the face of an old man on the subway.

Good grief!

This woman doesn't know when to quit, does she!!!

Don't mess with me!

Lin Xuan wanted to hang up immediately, but he felt that would make it look like he had something to hide, especially after noticing the two pairs of "gossiping" eyes beside him...

Forget it!

I'll warn her one last time, then just block her!

Thinking this, Lin Xuan answered the call. To show he had nothing to hide, he switched it to speakerphone.

"Brother Lin Xuan, it's me..."

"Let's get this straight first! I don't have money, and I'm not giving you my life."

"(A faint sobbing sound) .........."

"(òωó?) Huh???"

You've got to be kidding! She's already dropping little pearls?

Is her emotional resilience really that poor?

If someone who didn't know the situation heard this, they'd think I did something beastly...

It wasn't just Lin Xuan who was dumbfounded; the others present were also stunned. (°ー°〃)

They assumed Bai Bai Su Su was crying because she couldn't borrow money.

"Women are such a hassle! Crying over such a small thing."

At the doorway.

Su Fan stood expressionless, hands in his pockets, feeling utterly speechless.

This was one of the reasons he had no interest in women.

With the time spent coaxing them, he could better spend it on cultivation to reach the pinnacle of the Martial Dao sooner.

"Onii-chan~~~"

"How can you bully a girl? Girls are the most beautiful creatures in this world~~"

In stark contrast to Su Fan's annoyance was Chen Chen Chen Chen Kexin.

She clutched her flat chest, a flash of pity and heartache crossing her small face, and glared at Lin Xuan.

She signaled for him to be gentler and watch his tone when speaking to a girl.

Lin Xuan: ".........."

Have you forgotten that you just treated her like a mistress, all righteous and indignant?

What's with this sudden sympathy?!

As expected...

Women are fickle, even a brat going through a phase can't escape that.

Just then.

Bai Bai Su Su on the other end of the line seemed to have adjusted her emotions; her tone became steady again as she stated her request.

"Brother Lin Xuan, I want to... ask you for Tiger Lord's contact information."

"Tiger Lord? Oh, Zhao Hu! Why are you looking for him?"

Lin Xuan was slightly surprised, not understanding what Bai Bai Su Su was trying to pull!

He remembered that in the original plot, she and Zhao Hu didn't seem to have any interaction...

"I want to ask him if... he could extend the repayment deadline."

"Naive. Do you think Zhao Hu would possibly agree?"

"I want to try. My family really can't come up with the money now. So... so I plan to use my body (redacted)........"

"???"

As Bai Bai Su Su stammered out her plan, Lin Xuan and the others were left completely numb.

Could this girl's brain be underdeveloped?!

To think she could come up with such an outrageous method???

"No, no, no! I don't agree!!!"

The first to react was Chen Chen Chen Chen Kexin...

She tugged frantically at her twin tails, her face full of resistance and madness.

"It's too hateful! Rather than letting that disgusting old man have his way, why not let me?!"

"This is simply a toad eating swan meat; just thinking about it makes my heart ache!"

".........."

Because she had seen that bald guy Zhao Hu at the Tiancheng Entertainment KTV before.

Thinking of Bai Bai Su Su's innocent face, tear-streaked, being pinned down by that ugly monster, Chen Chen Chen Chen Kexin felt she would explode if she thought about it any longer...

This was simply a waste of a heavenly treasure!!!

At the doorway.

Su Fan frowned, hands in his pockets.

After hearing the content of the call, he finally figured out who Bai Bai Su Su was.

He had also crossed paths with her that day at the Tiancheng Entertainment KTV...

Did she really offer herself up just because she wanted to delay the repayment deadline?

Such a lack of self-respect?!

Simply foolish!

Su Fan felt not a shred of pity or sympathy for Bai Bai Su Su’s actions; he only thought this self-indulgent behavior of hers was incredibly stupid...

On the hospital bed.

Su Su Su Su Su Qingge also learned of Bai Bai Su Su’s thoughts through the speakerphone, and she was equally unable to understand...

[What on earth is that girl thinking?]

[Treating her own body as a bargaining tool?]

[Even if the family is in debt and can't pay, that’s a matter for the whole family. Taking such unilateral action is not very smart!]

[Besides, if her family truly loved her, they could never agree to such a thing.]

[And if her family doesn't care, then there’s even less reason to sacrifice herself for such a family.]

[Furthermore... a guy like Zhao Hu, his words are as worthless as a fart. How can his promises be trusted?]

[Unless you are stronger than him, this kind of submissive method will only make the other party push for more...]

Su Su Su Su Su Qingge sighed in her heart.

Out of a sense of mutual sympathy between beauties, she did not want Bai Bai Su Su to end up with such a fate.

Of everyone present, only Lin Xuan remained indifferent.

He rubbed his chin and asked curiously.

"Why did you suddenly have this idea? Your family shouldn't know about this, right!"

"Not to mention anything else, just your three brothers... they would likely rather fight Zhao Hu to the death than agree to you selling yourself."

"And you need 500 million; such a massive amount couldn't all be the Bai family's debt. The vast majority of it must be the Lin family's..."

"Tell me first, what kind of scheme is the Lin family pulling? Then I'll consider whether to give you the contact information."

"........."

Given Bai Bai Su Su’s character design, she still values her chastity quite highly.

If it were merely about debt collection, it shouldn't have been enough to lead her to the decision of "offering herself."

And her request was only to delay the repayment deadline, not to ask for the debt to be written off.

Delaying time, huh...

Combining this extremely naive and sweet personality with the intelligence he had gained through his foresight.

Even though this "offering herself" plot point did not appear in the original novel.

A playful arc still curled at the corner of Lin Xuan’s mouth.

He seemed to have guessed...

What could make Bai Bai Su Su proactively break her principles...

Lin Group, at the entrance of the headquarters.

Bai Bai Su Su’s face was full of conflict. (ー`′ー)

After all, the side effects of the [Beauty Ointment] and her uncle’s plan to "charge toward money regardless of everything" were considered company secrets.

She wasn't stupid.

These secrets...

Under normal circumstances, how could they be leaked so casually?!

"Don't want to say it? Then I'm hanging up! Phone bills are very expensive."

"Wait... I'll tell you, I'll tell you! Actually, it’s because of my uncle; I don't want him to walk down a path of illegal crime..."

Hearing that Lin Xuan was about to hang up, Bai Bai Su Su panicked.

She could no longer care about any "secrets."

Since it was a special time, she would treat it with special measures.

And so.

Bai Bai Su Su told him everything about the "crazy plan" the Lin Group was about to implement, from beginning to end...

Lu Lu Bingkun?

Hearing this name, Lin Xuan laughed.

He finally knew who was behind this...

Who exactly was stirring up trouble.

Calculating the time, it was indeed about time for the appearance of this early-stage big villain, following the funeral-attending young master of the Huo family.

Perhaps due to the butterfly effect he caused, the other party appeared a little earlier, but it wasn't a big problem.

Lin Xuan glanced at his brother-in-law at the door, looking calm.

With the protagonist in hand, the world is mine. (??????)??

Whatever big villain or small villain, just line up and wait to receive a big slap, okay?!!

But that guy Lin Lin Lin Lin Jianjun actually wants to make a haul and run?

With me here, you old rascal should just wash up and go to sleep...

At this moment.

Lin Xuan’s focus was entirely on how to better practice "fatherly kindness and filial piety."

And besides him, everyone else present was stunned by Bai Bai Su Su’s "kindness."

They never expected...

That Bai Bai Su Su’s reason for borrowing money was actually because she didn't want to see the Beauty Ointment released, leading to more victims, and she was even willing to sacrifice her own body for it...

"Where on earth did this treasure of a girl come from? o(╥﹏╥)o"

"I can't take it, I can't take it! My tears are coming out~~~"

"Such an angel ???( ˊ?ˋ )???*, I really want to cuddle her and protect her!!!"

"Onii-chan, hurry and help her. Hurry and lend her money! Just let her offer herself to you, I agree, it’s more acceptable than offering herself to that bald guy!"

"At worst, let her be my third wife! Then the four of us can just make up a mahjong table, and we’ll never be bored."

"We must get such a good girl! Oh my~~ I seem to have fallen into that damn river of love again~~"

"..........."

Chen Chen Chen Chen Kexin’s eyes turned red, and she tossed the basketball in her hand onto the ground, wiping away "little pearls" on the spot.

Lin Xuan: "........."

Hey, hey, hey!

Su Su Su Su Qingge is still here, isn't she?

You’re already changing your affections and abandoning the old for the new?

Who was it just a short while ago who swore that Su Su Su Su Su Qingge was the true love of their life...

And what the hell is a family of four (?◇?)???

Monogamy is already being exceeded, and you still want to add people to the mix...

Lin Xuan was speechless.

At this moment, he caught sight of the basketball that had rolled to his feet and solemnly picked it up to set it aside.

"Hmph! The peak welcomes hypocritical followers, the twilight witnesses true believers!"

"A true 'Little Blackie' will never abandon his basketball. Sure enough, this brat only knows how to cosplay the appearance, a total fake fan."

At the room door.

Su Fan had his hands in his pockets, his expression becoming slightly complex.

Bai Bai Su Su’s words left him a bit shocked.

Having traveled north and south for so many years, he had seen too much scheming.

But this was the first time he had encountered someone as good as Bai Bai Su Su, to the point of being a bit foolish.

Sacrificing oneself for others, huh?

Su Fan thought about it and realized that if it were him... he simply couldn't do it?!

His life motto was:

"I would rather betray the world than let the world betray me."

Aside from the few people he cared about, he didn't care at all about the lives of others.
