Xia Yu realized his mistake after touching his thigh.
Xu Youxiang was really sensitive about her immobile legs. This was a provocation in some ways.
Yet, although Xu Youxiang scolded him, saying he was acting like a lesbian, she wasn’t angry. This made Xia Yu think.
He discreetly moved his hand and grabbed the mouse.
Without an experience prop to use, he stopped learning.
It was too inefficient to learn without an experience prop. He might as well goof-off since it’d bring game points, which could be exchanged for an experience prop.
He looked around on Xu Youxiang’s computer, but couldn’t find TEM, which was the gaming platform in this world.
The problem: if Xu Youxiang didn’t even have access to TEM, how could he buy any games?
He couldn’t use his own bank card to open an account since he’d expose his identity, and as to buying games with Xu Youxiang’s money…
It was not something he could do.
He downloaded a free gun battle game and started playing.
After eight hours, he returned to his own body.
Xu Youxiang, back in control of her body, flexed her hands. Looking at the game on the computer screen, she thought:
“Is this really fun?”
She moved her mouse and clicked the game.
…
Meanwhile, An Siyao, after much hesitation, made a call.
In Shangjing City, inside the building of Dawei Capital, the upper management of a company was having a meeting.
“… what happened with the investment in Shanguo Technology? If we made contact first, why did Dongfeng Capital manage to snatch it from us?”
A white-haired but energetic elderly man was lecturing his subordinates.
The senior manager, with a sweating face, stood up. “It’s my fault. I thought I could lower the price, but Dongfeng Capital secretly got in touch with them and offered 80 million yuan. Then the head of the tech company actually said yes. My budget was 100 million!”
“Don’t give me excuses. You should have researched the head of the company before the negotiations!” After lecturing one subordinate, the elderly man looked at another manager.
The remaining managers, while not sweating yet, all looked nervous.
Even the assistant, standing nearby, became tense too.
A cell phone rang.
“Whose is it! Come forward!” The elderly man slammed the table.
Everyone looked toward the assistant.
The assistant instantly apologized.
However, no one scolded her. The assistant needed to keep her phone on to handle emergencies.
“What is it?” The elderly man looked at his assistant.
“It’s your granddaughter.” The assistant answered after checking the screen.
The elderly man’s eyes glinted at the words.
“Today’s meeting is over, you’re dismissed!”
With everyone looking surprised, the elderly man dragged the assistant to a nearby office.
Closing the door, the elderly man excitedly rubbed his hands on his suit and took the assistant’s phone. “Yaoyao called me? Yaoyao called me?”
The assistant replied with trepidation, “Not the phone you have with me. She called my personal phone.”
“Wait, she didn’t call me? She called you?” The man’s gaze darkened.
The assistant started to shiver. She could feel the menace in the chairman’s gaze.
“Why are you just standing there? Yaoyao is calling, pick up!” The man admonished.
The assistant pressed the answer button.
“Young miss… um… look up a bank account? … okay… don’t tell the chairman?” Looking up, the assistant glanced at the eavesdropping chairman.
The elderly man stared at her, making her answer, “Right, right, right, I will not tell the chairman!”
After the assistant hung up, the elderly man gripped her shoulders. “What did Yaoyao want?”
“The young miss said she wanted to look up who owned a bank account.” The assistant recited the bank account number.
The elderly man nodded and gripped the assistant’s shoulders even harder. “You said you weren’t going to tell me, and you lied to her!”
“???”
The assistant tried to defend herself but had no words.
“She actually called you. Yaoyao really trusts you. You and her mom… aye, take good care of her.” The elderly man didn’t press the assistant further. He let her go.
Sighing in relief, the assistant replied, “I’ll look up the account.”
“Go. Remember to use a good excuse.”
“Financial scam?”
“Let me know what you find out.” The elderly man waved off the assistant.
He sat and carefully considered the situation.
He hadn’t seen his granddaughter for 126 days. Why would she call his assistant to look up a bank account? And not let him know?
He logged into An Siyao’s bank account, noticing that she’d wired 100 thousand yuan to that account.
Picking up his phone, the man made a call. He called the spy he had set-up at the mansion, who was supposed to keep her safe.
After hearing the report, the man put down his phone and was deep in thought.
Yaoyao had managed to dominate all those maids and the housekeeping chief? When did she go from a docile rich girl to a rebellious teen who stayed up all the time?
It was good to be rebellious! Young people should be full of fire!
However…
The only reason a young woman would change like this and wire money to an account would be…
…for some lousy boy!
The elderly man paced back and forth in the office. He didn’t take a deep breath until his assistant gave him the report.
The owner of the bank account was actually a girl. Xu Youxiang. Quite a pretty name.
Wait, it was even worse if it was for a girl!
What should I do?
Seeing the increasingly anxious chairman, the assistant asked carefully, “The young miss is still waiting for this information. Should I reply?”
With the chairman’s agreement, the assistant passed on Xu Youxiang’s information to An Siyao.
“You didn’t tell grandpa, right?” An Siyao asked.
“Don’t worry, he’s in a meeting.”
Hearing the assistant’s words, An Siyao relaxed. She hung up and looked at the information on the paper.
Xu Youxiang, 21-years-old, Computer Science junior at Huada University, home address…
Was she the disabled woman?
Hmmph, she was old at 21.
After showing disdain at the woman, An Siyao looked at Xu Youxiang’s home address.
If she went over there when he was logged onto that woman’s body, she’d see “him,” right?
While that body was not his, the core was him.
But what if he didn’t like me going over? What if my presence there made him angry?
Should I ask him? What if he got mad when I asked?
The young woman felt very conflicted.
On the same evening, Xia Yu was also in a situation.
It was Saturday, and the class leader treated everyone to dinner.
Before the planned dinner, Xia Yu went to the restroom. On the way back, he got accosted by a girl in class.
“I like you. Please go out with me!” The girl said with a red face.
“???”
Xia Yu wanted to refuse, but a figure already jumped into his arms.
“Yu!”
