2 You reap what you sow

After a full hour of resting and just talking with her system, Ru Shi asks for the time.

[Its 10:02 am, Saturday. You have school the day after tomorrow.]

Ru Shi drafted a rough schedule for the day. Her eyes opened as she asked the system, "What's my system status?"

[Starter package has three pills: cleansing pill, enhancing pill and strengthning pill. System start points is 500. To upgrade the system, you need 1000 points.]

Ru Shi nodded in understanding.

"Okay, first of all I'm going to make my dear 'father' give me pocket money..."

She asked the system to ask for resignation from all the places where she worked part time. Then she went to the bathroom and consumed all three pills.

First, the cleansing pill caused black substance which were impurities to drain out from the pores of her body.

Secondly, with the enhancing pill, her rugged and coarse skin became like a child's; soft, supple, white and jade-like.

Lastly, the malnourished body remained as it is yet her immune system and bones were strengthened and her five senses increased significantly.

It took her a long time to get cleaned and ready to go out. She just casually changed into a washed out pant, pale blue shirt and put on an old navy coloured jacket and put on a cap which hid half of her face. It was getting warmer with June approaching.

Ru Shi made her way to the small internet cafe and paid the aunty sitting on the counter for an hour in the private room. These kinds of small Internet cafes didn't check on their customers' computers.

First things first, Ru Shi hacked into the Lin family and transferred ten million to her own account. This ten million was from her father's personal account. After much thinking, she also took away her step mother's three million from her savings account. It made her feel better.

Ximong City was the biggest city in Country G. The Lin family owned a high class entertainment company in the country. It had millions in wealth so taking 15 million would infuriate them but it did not matter to Ru Shi.

She had learned hacking from the system itself. Even if there was someone who could surpass her almost hundred years of hacking experience where she continuously tried to hack the system, she still had the master itself.

At least in this world, there was no one who could up the system in hacking.

Happy with money in her pocket, Ru Shi started searching for a small apartment in the better communities of the city. She didn't live in the slums however, she wasn't on the better areas either.

She searched for a pretty long time before settling on three apartment communities which came close to her ideal.

Ru Shi shut the computer and then made her way to the closest mall.

'System, scan the three apartments for me and select the most appropriate one. Tell me when you're done.'

The system who had been turned into an agent: "..."

But still, it complied and went off to scan the three apartments while grumbling insistently.

Reaching the nearest mall, Ru Shi decided to get a set of cleaner clothes first. She scanned the mall's map and decided on a small clothing store on the first floor's east side.

The shop's board has a cursive "W" written on it. The shop had decent clothing line. A petite lady came up to Ru Shi and greeted her, "Hello miss. What would you like to see?"

The lady was polite to her even though she was wearing shabby clothes and Ru Shi found it to be amazing. Usually, they'd probably just kick her out.

"I'd like a shirt, jacket and pant."

Ru Shi sat on the nearby chair and the lady quickly processed her wants, walking away to the shelves to get a proper outfit.

However, there was another attending lady who said to the polite one, "Such kind of girls don't have money and just wants time. They only want to try out our outfits because of their urge to become rich. Hah! I bet she can't even buy a shirt!"

In the latter half of her sentence, she increased her voice so Ru Shi could hear her. The polite lady turned red as she felt sorry for Ru Shi and embarrassed for her colleague.

One shouldn't judge a book by its cover.

Finally, the lady ignored her colleague and chose two outfits:

The first one had a mustard yellow shirt with the outer jacket being black and the pants were also black. The colours went well but since the lady couldn't see Ru Shi's face properly, she assumed she'd look good in it.

As for the second one, it included of a white button down, baby pink vest sweater with white lining on the v-neck and jeans. This one was picked based on her age.

"I'll wear the first one, please pack the second one."

Buying the outfits, Ru Shi made her way to the changing room and wore the first outfit. Then after she put on the hoody of the jacket and exited the room and made her way to the counter.

The lady at the counted was a friend of the mean attendant. She smirked in a demeaning manner and said, "You better just change out of the outfit. You can't even pay for one outfit! Our store is a high class store whose designer is a winner of the Designing competition. Do you even have enough to pay for a meal?!"

The polite lady couldn't take it anymore. "Stop it you two! This is not the way to serve our customers!!"

Ru Shi looked at the two mean ladies and then scoffed, "The bill."

The counter lady rolled her eyes and said, "The first outfit costs 6100 yuan while the other is 6720 yuan. The discount for the two is 15% each so you're total is 10,897 yuan. Cash or Credit?"

The provocation was so apparent. The polite lady gulped as she looked nervously at Ru Shi while the other mean attendant laughed at Ru Shi.

Ru Shi wasn't nervous at all. She brought out her card and placed it on the counter table, "Credit. The password is six Sevens. Also, please help me check my amount."

The lady took her card with hesitation and swiped it, clearing the bill then she checked the amount in the card and fell back in shock causing her head to bang on the shelf behind her. Following that, the packed shirts on the shelf fell on top of her.

"QiQi!"

The other attendant went to her friend and helped her up and slowly turned to look at the amount displayed on the computer before shuddering.

A beautiful 15,27,964 was displayed on it. The money other than 15 million yuan was the savings she had before.

"Hurry up please. I have other things to do."

Hurriedly, the two ladies packed the second outfit which she put in her backpack along with her card. Just as she was leaving, Ru Shi's eyes landed on a QQ scan card. Every attendant could get a tip via QQ from their client.

"What's your name?"

Ru Shi asked the polite lady and the other replied, "Meng Xui."

Nodding, Ru Shi scanned her QQ and sent a generous tip of 2000 yuan. "Have good day."

The attendant happily sent Ru Shi away. The day couldn't get better, the attendant thought as she couldn't help but laugh at the shaken image of her two mean collegues.

As the saying goes, "You reap what you sow."
