Lin Xiamo just walked into the house when her dad, Lin Moxuan, began his interrogation.
"It has nothing to do with ."
"I only found out he was auditing classes after I got to school."
Lin Xiamo spoke truthfully.
"How could it have nothing to do with you?"
"It must be that he begged you for help, right?"
In Lin Moxuan’s view, if it weren’t for his daughter’s assistance as the vice principal, how could Shen Qiushan possibly convince the school leaders?
"It really has nothing to do with ."
"He was already there when I was registering. If you don’t believe , you can ask Principal Wang!"
"I’ll call him tomorrow."
Lin Moxuan didn’t call Wang Guangqing after working hours, to avoid people thinking he was using his position for personal gain.
Once he’s at work tomorrow, it’ll be different. After all, he is an education bureau leader, and it’s only natural for him to inquire about such big news within the education system.
"Then why didn’t you give a heads up?"
Lin Moxuan skipped the previous topic.
"Weren’t you the one who didn’t want to hear his na!"
Lin Xiamo explained, as her dad had indeed said before not to ntion Shen Qiushan in front of him multiple tis.
"But doesn’t it depend on the situation?"
"He went to school to audit classes, who’s going to earn money to support the family?"
"What about Xiaoxiao and Yanran’s living expenses and tuition fees?"
"When they go to college, where will the tuition and living expenses co from?"
"Isn’t this nonsense? And saying such wild things in front of the reporters about getting into Sanjiang University!"
"Now it’s a ss, the internet is full of mockery, and even your school is being mocked with it!"
Lin Moxuan’s eyes were wide open. If Shen Qiushan were in front of him, he would have definitely received a strict scolding.
"Momo, for such a big thing, you really should’ve told us."
"After all, Xiaoxiao and Yanran are also part of our family!"
Chen Qingzhu chid in with agreent and then added, "We can cover Xiaoxiao and Yanran’s college tuition, but Qiushan is so much older, he shouldn’t be joining in the fun."
"Focus on working well; you’ll need money for both kids’ weddings in the future!"
After listening to the two, Lin Xiamo helplessly shrugged and said, "You should say this directly to Shen Qiushan."
"I can’t make any decisions for him."
"Moreover, I’m not my sister. Even if I make a decision, he won’t listen to !"
"If there’s nothing else, I’m going to wash up."
With that, Lin Xiamo was ready to escape from the battleground.
However, Lin Moxuan called after her again with a stern face and said, "Stay away from him at school!"
"Don’t be fooled by his sweet talk!"
"I know..."
Lin Xiamo casually dismissed it and then quickly returned to her room.
After closing the door, she let out a long breath.
Though her dad’s "interrogation" skills had weakened over the past couple of years, the oppressive feeling they brought remained and made her feel uncomfortable inside.
Lin Xiamo’s bedroom is a suite of about 40 square ters, with a private bathroom, shower, and walk-in closet, and also a balcony that leads to the first-floor garden.
On the balcony, Lin Xiamo placed a reclining chair where she could sunbathe during the day and star-gaze at night.
After changing into her pajamas, she didn’t imdiately wash up but instead lay on the chair to read a novel.
Ever since learning at noon that Shen Qiushan was writing a novel, she had been reading "I Really Didn’t Want to Reincarnate." She had spent almost all her fragnted ti throughout the day on this novel.
In fact, the book has only about 200,000 words serialized so far, and if it were a veteran reader who frequently reads online novels, they’d have finished it by now.
But it was Lin Xiamo’s first ti seriously reading an online novel, so her pace was much slower, especially since the readers’ comnts were interesting, prompting her to keep checking them out as well.
This slowed her pace even more.
Finally, she had so uninterrupted ti and quickly imrsed herself in the story of the novel...
She didn’t know how long she had been reading when the words "To Be Continued" suddenly appeared on her phone screen.
That’s it?
Lin Xiamo was montarily stunned, feeling as if sothing had been stolen from her, leaving her feeling empty.
Youchu is so good!
Chen Gou really deserves to die!!
Lin Xiamo silently cursed in her heart. With no more content to read, she turned to the comnts section.
The battle between the Xiaoyu’er Faction and the Youchu Faction was still ongoing.
Both sides were arguing endlessly.
Each was rewarding the characters they liked!
Lin Xiamo now understood why both sides were tipping—they were trying to boost their characters’ Star Shining Value.
Both sides wanted their favorite characters to outshine the other.
And right now, "Xiao Rongyu’s" Star Shining Value was about 18,000 points higher than "Shen Youchu’s"!
Lin Xiamo subconsciously frowned, surprised that her favorite character was trailing.
Through reading the comnts, she roughly understood how the Star Shining Value was accumulated.
The most direct thod was by gifting characters.
With the first gift, 10 points of gifts add 2 points to the Star Shining Value, and after that, 10 points of gifts add 1 point to the Star Shining Value.
Currently, the character she liked, Shen Youchu, was trailing by about 18,000 points. If it was the first ti gifting, she would need to give a gift worth 100,000 Penguin Coin to overtake Xiao Rongyu.
That’s an Alliance Leader!
$1,000!
The money I tip will eventually beco Xiaoxiao and Yanran’s tuition and living expenses.
At this thought, Lin Xiamo’s eyes suddenly lit up. She imdiately recharged 1,000 Penguin Coin into her account and then rewarded it to her favorite character, "Shen Youchu"!
A line of small text saying [Red Rose 19 Tipped Alliance Leader] imdiately floated across the cartoon image representing the character.
Since it was her first ti gifting, the character’s Star Shining Value instantly increased by 20,000 points.
Overtook in an instant!
Seeing her favorite character’s Star Shining Value exceed the other, Lin Xiamo’s lips gently curved upwards, revealing a satisfied smile.
At the sa ti.
In the girls’ dormitory at Sanjiang University.
Lin Jiayu was chatting with fellow book lovers in the [Xiaoyu’er Guardian Group].
A ssage suddenly popped up on the phone screen: Damn! The tower has been stolen! They’ve got one more Alliance Leader!
Along with the ssage was a screenshot.
In the image, the line "Red Rose 19 Tipped Alliance Leader" was visible.
"Another wild Alliance Leader has directly added 20,000 Star Shining Value!"
"It must be an alternate account registered by that Oranges!"
"@Taro Milk Tea ow ow Alliance, are you going to act?"
"Forget it, the ow Alliance already has three Alliance Leaders."
The chat group was in instant chaos.
Originally in a good mood, Lin Jiayu frowned as well.
"Where did this Red Rose co from!"
"So annoying!!"
Lin Jiayu couldn’t help but grumble silently, then opened WeChat Wallet. Seeing the balance inside, she sighed silently.
Right now, there’s only enough for als left in her WeChat!
She then opened the familiar Qiku Reading app and clicked on her favorite character’s page. Seeing that the Star Shining Value had indeed been surpassed, the unwillingness and disappointnt in her heart rekindled her desire to "make money."
No, I can’t lose!
Returning to WeChat, Lin Jiayu’s slender fingers lingered over her sister’s and mom’s WeChat avatars for a while, before finally clicking on her mom’s:
Dear Mom, could you give my New Year’s money?
At Sanjiang, the custom is that as long as you’re not married, you can collect New Year’s money.
Every year, Lin Jiayu receives a considerable amount of New Year’s money, which she gives to her mom to save up for her dowry when she gets married in the future.
And now, she decides to make so early use of her dowry!
