"Look, I told you I was not lying."

The final sentence from Guo Zihang caused the entire group to fall into silence. 

[System Notification: The chat group has entered a state of absolute silence.]

No one spoke anymore. Even a fool like Qin Ziyang, who would shout in the cafeteria that he was paying for everyone, did not say anything else. 

To be honest, they would rather doubt their own eyes at this moment than believe that what Guo Zihang, Huang Ying, and Yang Shuan said was true. 

Thirty Myriads. This was not a number a high school student could touch. 

If they had ten Yuan in their pockets, they would be happy enough to jump to the sky. With Thirty Myriads, they would probably fly out of the Milky Way. 

However, it was normal for Guo Zihang to brag for Jiang Qin. He was the lackey of Jiang Qin and had been that way since they were in school. There was no reason for Huang Ying and Yang Shuan to help Jiang Qin lie. 

Did that mean everything Guo Zihang said was true?

'We feel the sting of regret just by topping up a Yellow Diamond. How does that dog of a thief, Jiang Qin, dare to spend Thirty Myriads?'

'Did we attend the same high school?'

The most shocked person was actually Chu Siqi. She could not imagine that Jiang Qin had done so many things during the summer vacation. Every single matter was unbelievable. 

While everyone was still chatting online at home, grinding for the Sun Level, stealing crops in Happy Farm, or acting dramatic over young love, Jiang Qin was already doing business worth hundreds of Myriads. 

But he never publicized it. It was as if hundreds of Myriads were not worth boasting about. 

Thinking of this, Chu Siqi suddenly felt that Jiang Qin had become distant. She felt a sense of panic as if he were out of reach. 

It turned out he did not refuse to show up because he was afraid of losing face. 

He was truly doing business. 

While others were wasting time and trying to prove their maturity by drinking, he had transformed into the most stunning person in the class. 

After a moment of being lost in thought, Chu Siqi suddenly felt a bit angry. 

Jiang Qin did not tell her such an important matter. Even Guo Zihang knew, yet he kept it a secret from her. This was too much. He used to love sharing everything with her!

"Guo Zihang, tell the truth. Where did his money come from?" Chu Siqi asked.

"I said it during the gathering. Jiang Qin has been doing business all along. He definitely earned it," Guo Zihang replied.

"What business can earn Thirty Myriads?"

"I do not know. If I knew, would I not have earned Thirty Myriads myself?"

"But was the business you mentioned not selling lunch boxes? I saw you selling lunch boxes before!"

Guo Zihang typed a string of ellipses. "The founder of Lao Gan Ma used to sell wontons. Did that stop her from starting a company?"

Qin Ziyang could no longer sit still. "Impossible. Even I do not have Thirty Myriads. Where did he get Thirty Myriads? Nonsense!"

Guo Zihang sent a smiling face. "Stop comparing yourself to Jiang Qin. What kind of skill is it to rely on your father?"

"What are you all talking about?" Wang Huiru suddenly emerged from her lurking state.

Chu Siqi replied, "Huiru, they said Jiang Qin spent Thirty Myriads to rent half of a bar!"

"Ah???" (Extreme Shock!).

"Do you also find it hard to believe?"

Wang Huiru hesitated for a long time before replying. "It is fine. I saw something even more unbelievable on Jiang Qin a few days ago."

Chu Siqi immediately sent a surprised expression. "What else happened?"

"..."

"Huiru, did you lose your connection?"

"It is nothing. I was just joking earlier."

Wang Huiru hesitated repeatedly but still did not speak about the matter regarding Jiang Qin and Feng Nanshu. 

Thirty Myriads was indeed shocking enough, but no matter how shocking, it was just a string of numbers. People would sigh at the size of the number, but Feng Nanshu was different. She was a living White Moonlight. If this were leaked, the group would surely explode. Within one night, the entire school would know.

Actually, Jiang Qin was also watching the group chat. It was mainly because the QQ messages were too annoying. He tried several times but could not mute them. He did not know if the 2008 version of QQ had not upgraded this feature yet. 

If it were Qin Ziyang, he would have jumped out to show off by now. 

'Yes, yes, yes, I did it. I am just that powerful!'

But Jiang Qin disdained doing so. He did not have that much desire to perform. 

'If I jump out to show off, will I have to provide a dozen free bar seats? Am I that bored?'

In addition, he felt he needed to have a talk with Guo Zihang. 

'I do not show off because I think it is childish. Can you stop acting as a vanguard for your Godfather?'

He decided to turn off the phone. 

Otherwise, he would still want to look. 

It must be said that having someone show off on his behalf felt a little good. 

Jiang Qin pressed and held the power button. He waited for the screen to go dark and then walked into the Jizhou City Library carrying a bag of snacks. 

Half a month had passed in the blink of an eye since he returned from the Hot Spring Town. He had not seen the Little Rich Woman again, and they had barely chatted on QQ. Since the bar was not open for business yet, he decided to stop by. 

As soon as he reached the second floor of the library, he saw the figure of the Little Rich Woman. 

She wore a white lady-like dress with a small black bow today. She was quiet and well-behaved. She held a thick book in her hands, but her gaze was not on the book. She was looking out the window. 

In fact, since returning from the Hot Spring Town, Feng Nanshu came to the library every day. She wanted to finish the last volume of *The Magic-Eyed Girl Peggy Sue*. 

This volume was said to be the most interesting of the series. 

It told the story of a terrible disaster on Planet Kandata. 

A monster that had been sleeping underground for a hundred million years woke up. Relying on myriads of tentacles, it frantically searched for cracks in the ground to snatch away sleeping children from their rooms. 

As time passed, the monster grew larger. It caused asphalt roads to crack and cities to collapse one after another. 

After an investigation by Peggy Sue and her companions, they discovered with shock that the planet itself was an egg. It was an egg that had been incubating in the universe for hundreds of Myriads of years. The life forms that were born by chance on the planet were the outsiders. 

If it were before, Feng Nanshu would definitely be deeply absorbed. 

For a book of 396 pages, she only needed three afternoons to finish it. 

But...

But half a month had passed, and she had not even finished half of the content. 

Even the parts she had read felt blurry when she tried to remember them now. 

Feng Nanshu looked out the bright window at the lush trees. She suddenly noticed a trace of inexplicable loneliness in her heart. 

At this moment, the chair opposite her was suddenly pulled back. 

Feng Nanshu snapped back to her senses in a panic. She saw Jiang Qin sit down without a word. He gently placed the bag of snacks down. 

"I have been so busy these past few days. I finally have time to rest for a while. Little Rich Woman, how have you been lately?"

"Jiang Qin, I think I am truly a bit lonely."

A hint of confusion flashed in the cold eyes of Feng Nanshu. 

Reading alone was originally her most primitive state of life. The appearance of Jiang Qin was merely an accident. It was like a grain of peanut suddenly mixing into a large jar of rice. If the peanut were picked out, should it not still be a jar of rice?

She could not understand why life had suddenly become lonely.
