Working is Impossible

Without any nonsense, An Tianfeng went straight to the point.

"Have Feng Yujia and Feng Yumo contacted you?" he asked.

"Yes." Xia Yu had already asked An Siyao and saw the messages Feng Yujia and Feng Yumo sent to her.

In the messages, the two were showing off their decadent lives to An Siyao, hinting that she should elope with them.

These two guys, not only were they fallen themselves, but they also wanted to drag An Siyao down with them!

Xia Yu imagined An Siyao squatting in her room, wearing messy pajamas, lying on a cluttered bed, and watching TV dramas.

He couldn't imagine it at all!

An Siyao had always been quiet, gentle, and clean. How could she turn into that kind of sloppy woman?

If it weren't for An Siyao's sake, Xia Yu would have wanted to block them directly.

At this point, An Tianfeng asked about the two sisters, and Xia Yu felt he might be able to take advantage of the situation.

He knew An Tianfeng must be inquiring on behalf of the Feng sisters' father.

Sure enough, An Tianfeng continued to ask, "What's their current situation?"

"They're at a Ziyan Hotel, having a great time." Xia Yu replied after taking a sip of milk tea.

An Tianfeng glanced at An Siyao and couldn't accept that his daughter would use the word "enjoy" in her speech.

He felt that his daughter had somewhat surpassed his understanding.

"What do you think of them running away from home?" An Tianfeng asked with concern.

"Boring." Xia Yu replied.

The two sisters from the Feng family ran away from home to resist their father, but in Xia Yu's opinion, their actions were more like acting out than rebelling.

He believed that smoking, drinking, and staying out all night would be more effective ways to resist.

Running away from home is also an option, but they should go to a remote small city, and not keep using their family's cards. By using these cards, it shows that they haven't severed their relationship with their family, and hence it does not count as running away.

The best solution would be to buy a small shop with the card, then throw it away and rely on their own efforts to make a living, showing determination to sever the relationship.

These two young ladies were still too naive.

"Yes, it's just a boring move." An Tianfeng agreed with Xia Yu's answer wholeheartedly.

He thought that Xia Yu's comment of "boring" was criticizing their rebellion against their father.

However, what Xia Yu meant was that their methods were wrong, but he actually agreed with their actions of rebelling against their father.

Mistakenly thinking that his daughter was still the obedient child from before, An Tianfeng showed a satisfied smile.

He asked some more questions about the Feng sisters, and finally, casually asked, "What do you think would make them come back?"

Xia Yu thought for a while and said, "Freeze their bank cards."

"That's right, without money, they'll know to come back!" An Tianfeng nodded. He took out his phone, ready to discuss this method with Feng's father.

Xia Yu continued to eat his red jade dumplings.

For Feng Yujia and Feng Yumo, losing their bank cards would be a bad thing, but also a good one.

Cutting off their bank cards was the only legitimate means. If they lost their cards, they might not be able to maintain their runaway lifestyle and momentum and achieve their goal.

But if they couldn't hold on, it was better for them to return home sooner.

Their running away from home was just a waste of time, and it was the time they could use to do something else.

That's right, it was all for their own good, and not for revenge against An Siyao, who had kidnapped him!

After finishing the rice balls, Xia Yu washed his hands and went to school for classes.

He wasn't sure if it was his illusion, but the driver seemed to have become more aggressive lately, but also more respectful.

Upon arriving at school, Xia Yu chose to study.

When he transferred into the body of another person outside of the game, although he didn't get 1.5 times the game points, he did gain eight extra hours of study time while getting one times the game points.

It was hard to determine which side was more advantageous.

At night, he returned to his own body.

At this moment, he was taking a bath.

Looking at the narrow bathtub that could only fit one person, Xia Yu began to think about the issue of his house.

Before, he had planned to buy a big house directly at A Fang when he entered university, but now his current living situation was uncomfortable.

The bathtub issue could be ignored, as he didn't need it now, but there was only one toilet, which caused some trouble for Xia Yu.

After pondering for a while, Xia Yu showed a mocking smile.

He was laughing at himself for having a poor mindset deeply ingrained in him.

Why couldn't he buy a house in Ziluo when he could buy one in A Fang?

He wanted them all!

Getting up from the bathtub, Xia Yu made a decision.

However, he didn't have the time to pick a house now, so he should ask someone else for help.

If the store manager was still around, he could ask him, but unfortunately, the manager seemed to have inherited his family business.

The only remaining local snake in Ziluo was Kong Hanyue, but Xia Yu didn't think Kong Hanyue was reliable.

By the way, he had also met the executives of the Zhong family's company last time, and maybe he could ask them.

This matter was not urgent, and he would deal with it during the day tomorrow.

There was no need to tell Yuxue about it, and he would give her a surprise later.

After drying his body and walking out of the bathroom, Xia Yu lay on the sofa brushing questions.

The hard chair in the bedroom was uncomfortable to sit on; when he changed to a villa, he must put a comfortable sofa in the bedroom.

Guessing that Xia Yu had already finished bathing, Yuxue came out of her room, tidied up the bathroom a bit, and put away the changed clothes.

When everything was done, she glanced at Xia Yu lying on the sofa, thought for a moment, and crawled into his bedroom to fetch her notebook, lying down next to Xia Yu.

Xia Yu turned his head to look at her, and she stuck out her tongue and made a ghost face.

Xia Yu's heart instantly brightened up.

Both of them benefited from each other: Yuxue enjoyed the sense of security from being close to him, and he absorbed the spiritual connection from being close to Yuxue.

The only downside was that the cartoon on Yuxue's laptop was somewhat distracting to Xia Yu.

Cursed, such a good laptop was not a good thing, the screen could be clearly viewed from 180 degrees around, if it were a garbage screen, he wouldn't be able to see it clearly unless his line of sight was straight.

With remarkable self-control, Xia Yu struggled to continue answering questions.

"We have no money left, and you still bought jewelry!" Feng Yumo said angrily as she sat up, "Give me the money, keep it with me."

With a guilty conscience, Feng Yujia handed over the remaining money and changed the subject: "Luckily the hotel was booked for a week all at once; otherwise, we would have had to sleep on the streets."

For the two sisters, staying in an ordinary hotel was no different than sleeping on the streets.

"But what about our meals? The dinner tonight was so hard to eat. I can't just eat this!" Feng Yumo said sadly while touching her stomach.

"Moreover, we still have four more days left to stay in the hotel."

In the darkness, two sighs were heard.

The room became quiet.

After an unknown period, a voice sounded again.

"Sister, are you asleep?" Feng Yumo asked.

"No," Feng Yujia replied.

"If we're out of money, you'll have to work."

"Why do I have to work?" Feng Yujia sat up.

"Because I'm a minor," Feng Yumo revealed a triumphant smile.
