- Chapter 5 - Don't Starve into a Mummified Corpse
He definitely had to go to the bar often; that was the only way to establish the persona of a mean, gold-digging, and willful person.
However, the bar was indeed very dangerous. Xu Wanxing looked at the Alpha who had been lying on the ground like a corpse for half the evening.
He couldn’t help but squat down and poke him. “Lu Yanbai, he’s not dead, is he? Why has he been lying here for so long without waking up?”
The protagonist shou didn’t actually kill someone, did he?
Lu Yanbai pulled him up, patted non-existent dust off Xu Wanxing’s clothes, and cast a cold, disgusted glance at the Alpha on the ground.
“He’s not dead. I know the measure of my own strength. Let’s go. I’ll take you back. Where do you live?”
“Imperial Capital University.”
“A university student? How old are you this year?”
“Twenty-one.”
“Tsk, looks like I’m robbing the cradle.” Lu Yanbai gave a self-deprecating smile, then drove Xu Wanxing back.
Xu Wanxing, who had never ridden in a luxury car before, found his hands stuck to the genuine leather seat, and he couldn’t stop inhaling deeply through his nose.
The scent of a luxury car is wonderful.
This was every man’s dream, and he was no exception.
Lu Yanbai’s pale fingers rested on the steering wheel. He frowned as he looked at Xu Wanxing. “Inhale less. It’s all leather smell. Inhaling too much is bad for your health.”
Xu Wanxing nodded, then continued to steal inhales.
He tells me to inhale less? Why should I listen to him?
This was his first time riding in a luxury car; he had to breathe in more of that luxury car scent now, as he wouldn’t get to ride in one again.
The car stopped at the gate of Imperial Capital University.
Xu Wanxing opened the car door, but before he could step out, he heard Lu Yanbai’s voice behind him.
“Stop.”
Xu Wanxing’s body stiffened. Is Lu Yanbai going to ask him for the driving and gas fees? Two hundred minus thirty-eight leaves him with one hundred sixty-two yuan now.
Taking a taxi from the bar to the university gate should be about ten or twenty yuan, but Lu Yanbai’s car is a luxury one, so the price will likely be higher.
Xu Wanxing looked at Lu Yanbai sadly, opening his mouth as if bracing himself for execution: “I only have 162 yuan left. Tell me, how much money do you want?”
“Huh? Why would I want your money?” Lu Yanbai was perplexed.
“The driving and gas fees. Didn’t you ask me to stop for that reason?”
“No. Shouldn’t a couple share a goodnight kiss?”
The look of pain over money on Xu Wanxing’s face instantly froze. Seeing Lu Yanbai’s extremely frank attitude, he gritted his teeth and leaned over. He supported himself on Lu Yanbai’s thigh with one hand, looked up, and quickly kissed Lu Yanbai’s bitten lip corner.
The sound was extremely light, like a feather. “Goodnight kiss. Sleep well tonight, okay?”
He then quickly moved away from Lu Yanbai.
Lu Yanbai pressed one hand on the thigh that Xu Wanxing had supported himself on, and the other hand touched the corner of his mouth where the skin was broken.
Having a cheap lover doesn’t feel bad.
He could tell that Xu Wanxing wanted something, and he only agreed to be his lover to test him.
But things are gradually becoming uncontrollable.
Xu Wanxing sighed in relief. Thinking about his dwindling small savings, his heart ached unbearably. How many more days could he survive on this money?
When he runs out of money, he will follow the plot and shamelessly ask Lu Yanbai for money.
But for now, he must be a person with dignity.
“Wait.”
A voice came from behind again. Xu Wanxing looked back at Lu Yanbai in confusion. “Is there anything else?”
“For you.”
Lu Yanbai’s long, pale fingers held a bank card. He gently tapped the broken spot on his lip corner with the other hand, his fine dark hair falling near his eyes, obscuring the emotions in them.
“There are 100,000 yuan in there. Come find me if you need more money.”
Xu Wanxing accepted the bank card in a daze. The exchange rate in this world was the same as in his previous world; a normal person earning three to four thousand yuan a month was a typical salary.
He only made about 6,000 yuan a month in his previous life.
This sudden 100,000 yuan was an amount he couldn’t save even if he didn’t eat or drink for a year.
He only just got together with the protagonist shou—has it even been an hour? No, right.
He managed to get 100,000 yuan just like that! The protagonist shou is too generous.
Xu Wanxing squeezed the bank card in his hand. One thin card could let him live comfortably for several years—the kind where he didn’t even need to work.
Xu Wanxing sat back in the car, once again supporting himself on Lu Yanbai’s thigh. This time, it was slightly strange: Lu Yanbai’s hand was resting on his leg, and his hand pressed directly onto Lu Yanbai’s hand, but he paid it no mind.
Xu Wanxing looked at Lu Yanbai’s face, as handsome as a sea of stars, his eyes full of the craving for money. He leaned in and gave Lu Yanbai’s lips a loud smack.
Protagonist shou? This is his Sugar Daddy!
After getting out of the car, Xu Wanxing didn’t immediately leave, waving at Lu Yanbai in the car.
“Goodbye, Husband. I’ll miss you.”
Lu Yanbai looked at the smile on Xu Wanxing’s face outside the car and was filled with surprise. Is he that desperate for money?
Or is it that he loves me so much he has to pretend to love money, just so we can be together for longer?
Lu Yanbai uncomfortably shifted his gaze. This was the first time he had met such a peculiar Omega.
After all, all Omegas focused on dressing extravagantly to marry a good Alpha and bear children.
Why would an Omega want to be with another Omega?
Lu Yanbai uncomfortably touched the inhibitor patch on the back of his neck. His scent gland was indeed faintly warm; his rut was only a few days away.
Thinking of this, Lu Yanbai’s face hardened, and he was filled with malicious thoughts.
No Omega would genuinely be willing to be with another Omega. Everything is a lie.
He was going to wait and see what the Omega’s performance would be like during the rut.
Dorm
After a full day of classes, what a happy thing it was to come back and find the aloof roommate absent from the dorm.
Xu Wanxing happily lay down on his bed, looking at Pei Yu’s empty bed.
He could finally rest properly today. First, he’d order takeout. Since he got 100,000 yuan from Lu Yanbai, he had to treat himself well; it was the reward for his hard work.
Xu Wanxing happily opened the takeout app, only to find that the 100,000 yuan couldn’t be used.
The sky instantly fell and the earth split open.
Because this morning, knowing he had 100,000 yuan, he had happily eaten a 14 yuan bowl of beef ramen.
In the morning! Breakfast!
Now, thinking about it, that was practically a huge sum of money.
The protagonist shou lied to him! The 100,000 yuan is unusable!
【System, come out now! System, the protagonist shou lied to me! The 100,000 yuan can’t be used, and I’m going to starve to death! Am I going to be your first Host to starve to death?】
【Host, please be reassured. Money acquired through non-labor methods given by the protagonist shou will be frozen. It cannot be used now. It will be available once the entire plot is finished.】
【What?! You guys froze it?! You even distinguish between labor and non-labor earnings! That’s too ridiculous! So when does the plot end?】
Xu Wanxing unhappily punched the bed.
【About two years from now. It ends after you marry and divorce the protagonist shou, and the protagonist gong and shou get together.】
【I’ll be a mummified corpse in two years! How am I supposed to live? I only have a little over 100 yuan now, and I ate a 14 yuan bowl of ramen this morning! Do you understand what that means? A fortune! I spent a fortune this morning!】
Xu Wanxing wanted to cry but had no tears. He felt like dying.
Holding 100,000 yuan in his hand but unable to spend a single penny—is there anyone whose life is more miserable than his?
