Chapter 38: Chapter 38 - Jealousy and Hatred

Chapter 38 : Jealousy and Hatred (Old Version)

“Lucky draw~!!”

The treasure chest rolled quickly and then broke into two halves.

[Ding ~! Congratulations to the host for drawing a snake. (Stored in the system space)].[Ding ~! Congratulations to the host for unlocking the system space. (100 cubic meters)].

“…” Su Lin took out the snake and was almost depressed. The snake in front of him kept swaying. It felt like a real snake in his hand. It could even stick out its tongue, position itself, and so on. Sure enough, the system’s products were the best.

If such a snake was placed in the goddess dorm, the female host would definitely be furious. But Su Lin had no use for it.

“Fortunately, the system space was unlocked. Otherwise, what use would I have for this snake skin?” Su Lin comforted himself.

A hundred cubic meters of system space was indeed substantial, enough to store many things.Su Lin thought if he ran out of money, he could use the system space for transportation and make a fortune.

System: “…” I didn’t give you the system space to run a transportation business!!!!

After playing with the snake for a while, Su Lin lost interest. This thing looked scary and could move on its own. It was just like a real snake, but it was useless. Su Lin threw it into the system space and no longer cared about it.

The night passed and Su Lin woke up early again. He found that he only needed four to five hours of sleep and he would be full of energy the next day. Su Lin speculated that this should be due to the system strengthening his body.

At school, Xia Shiyu and Lin Xiaowan had already arrived early, probably because the monthly exams were approaching. Both girls were studying diligently, not noticing Su Lin’s arrival.

Su Lin walked back to his seat, and the familiar pink insulated lunch box was already on the desk. He opened it and saw the familiar plate arrangement with different patterns. There were a lot of fruits today, winter dates, small tomatoes, and so on.

Su Lin was about to eat when he noticed someone looking at him. Then he turned his head and saw Lin Xiaowan’s eager eyes. Lin Xiaowan’s eyes fell on Su Lin’s lunch box and looked like she wanted to eat.

Su Lin looked at Lin Xiaowan and was about to speak when she said, “Um … I came early this morning and didn’t have breakfast.”

“Uh…”

Su Lin came back to his senses and pushed the lunch box, “Then… let’s eat together?”

“Okay~!!!” Lin Xiaowan replied to Su Lin with a sweet smile.

Su Lin was a little surprised. He didn’t expect this girl to be a foodie. This wasn’t written in the original novel.

Lin Xiaowan agreed to Su Lin’s invitation and then put the book on the table, standing up and walking over. Seeing this, Su Lin had to shift his position to let Lin Xiaowan sit in her place.

While Lin Xiaowan admired the lunchbox, she exclaimed, “Xiaoyu is so thoughtful, it looks so beautiful, and the taste is so good.” After saying that, she picked up a cherry tomato and fed it into her mouth, squinting her eyes.

Su Lin: “…”

“This is a tomato, and it’s not seasoned, how come it tastes so good?”

Hearing Su Lin’s teasing, Lin Xiaowan shook her head, “There’s no point in telling you.”

“Okay, give me the lunchbox; I still need to eat.”

“Half for each.” Lin Xiaowan immediately said.

“Half for each? This lunchbox is connected and can’t be split.”

“It’s okay; I brought a bowl.”

“Well, you’ve planned this in advance.”

“Hehe~!!”

Su Lin didn’t know that Lin Xiaowan rarely had delicious home-cooked meals. Lin Guoqiang was busy as the mayor of Zhongjiang City, and alhough Wang Xiaoqian occasionally cooked, she worked overtime at the company most of the time and didn’t have time.

So Lin Xiaowan’s meals were usually simple, mostly from the school cafeteria. Occasionally, they would eat out, but the taste couldn’t compare to the breakfast prepared by Xia Shiyu.

“Xiaoyu’s cooking skills are too good. I don’t know which lucky man will benefit in the future. If you marry a girl like Xiaoyu, it’s really a blessing in three lifetimes.” Lin Xiaowan praised while eating.

Su Lin nodded seriously, “Yes, I wonder who will be the lucky one.”

“Sigh, if only we went to university together. Then I can rent a house outside the university and let Xiaoyu cook every day.”

“Then Xiaoyu would become your personal chef?” Su Lin teased.

“Hehe, what’s wrong with having a beautiful chef like her? Where else could you find one?”

As they chatted, Ye Feng arrived. This time he walked straight to Xia Shiyu, just like yesterday.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Xiaoyu… come out for a moment.”

Interrupted in her studies by Ye Feng, Xia Shiyu’s eyes flashed with a hint of disgust. She didn’t stand up and looked at Ye Feng coldly.

Ye Feng felt some heartache, but he couldn’t show it. He could only say, “I… I’m here to pay back the money.”

Xia Shiyu frowned. “Just give the money to Su Lin, don’t give it to me.”

“I owe you money, why should I give it to Su Lin?”

Xia Shiyu reached out her hand. “There’s no one else here, just give me the money.”

Ye Feng saw that Xia Shiyu didn’t want to go out with him. He couldn’t say anything and could only give up. He took out the eighty thousand yuan he prepared and put it on Xia Shiyu’s table.

Xia Shiyu took the money and stood up, walking toward Su Lin, placing the money on his desk, “Ye Feng returned the money.”

Su Lin nodded, “He must return it. Xiaoyu, why don’t you take it first? Uncle Xia has just undergone surgery and still needs to stay in the hospital. It costs money to stay in the hospital for a day.”

Xia Shiyu shook her head, “No, this money was originally yours.”

Su Lin smiled, “I’ve donated it to you; it’s yours now.”

“But…”

Lin Xiaowan waved her hand, “Xiaoyu, don’t refuse. Su Lin is right. After the kidney transplant, Uncle Xia will need to stay at the hospital for at least half a year. Do you have money? Without money, how can Uncle Xia see a doctor?”

Su Lin was surprised, “Xiaowan, when did you learn about these things?”

Lin Xiaowan raised her snowy white neck, “Do you think only you can read? I can read too, you know.”

“Hehe….”

“What are you laughing at? Books on this subject are not hard to find.”

Su Lin nodded, “I just didn’t expect you to be so competitive and curious.”

Ye Feng saw Xia Shiyu, Lin Xiaowan, and Su Lin chatting enthusiastically. He stood there looking very lonely. He didn’t know what was going on, and suddenly things turned into what they are now.

Just looking at Xia Shiyu’s sincerely happy face, Ye Feng had a feeling that he and Xia Shiyu were like two intersecting lines, and now the intersection point had passed.

In the future, the two would only go further apart.

Ye Feng desperately wanted to hold onto the beauty in front of him, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t grasp anything.

Watching Su Lin joking with Lin Xiaowan and Xiao Shiyu, Ye Feng’s heart was filled with hatred. It was all because of this guy; he ruined the relationship between him and Xia Shiyu. Ye Feng felt that he couldn’t go on like this anymore; he had to retaliate against Su Lin.
