Chapter 13 - Worth Being Happy
The call between Lu Ping and Lu Ping’s mother didn’t last long and he quickly hung up the phone.
No matter how much Lu Ping’s mother refused, he still decided that he would take out 1500 star dollars from his salary and send it home.
Star dollars were resources that were never enough.
However, this money could greatly relieve the pressure on Lu Ping’s father and mother.
It could also help Lu Yu cultivate better.
As for Lu Ping, although his star dollars were still in short supply at the moment, Lu Ping believed that his days would definitely get better and better.
At this moment, Lu Ping saw a message from his class group.
Guan Mei, the instructor, said in the class group, “Students, come to the classroom at 6:30 tonight to collect your graduation certificate and declare your employment status.”
Lu Ping sighed and put away his phone.
The bus drove slowly, and Lu Ping finally felt relieved.
In the end, he had waited for the opportunity that belonged to him.
After activating the system, he could look forward to the future!
In the high-end villa area of Binhai City, Huang Xiaoqi returned to her residence.
In one night, everything was ready. For her, these were just some basic things.
After entering the door, Huang Xiaoqi threw off her shoes and walked straight into the living room. She threw herself on the sofa.
“Nanny Liu, I want to eat Fire Lizard soup tonight……” Huang Xiaoqi called out casually.
In the kitchen, a middle-aged woman replied, “Got it, Miss Qi!”
Huang Xiaoqi had never lacked people to serve her since she was young.
Thinking back to what had happened just now, a smile appeared on the corner of Huang Xiaoqi’s mouth.
Although she was a little unhappy when he was insulting her, she was really happy when she saw him insulting other women.
It was a painless abortion and Liu Qian refused to accept the offer. How could he have thought of saying something like that?
Suddenly, Huang Xiaoqi thought of a problem.
How did Lu Ping remember the number of the abortion hospital so clearly?
Her smile was a little stiff. A moment later, Huang Xiaoqi sat up from the sofa, her eyes sharp.
‘First Love! Abortion?!’
She was sure that if she had revealed herself, Lu Ping would never tell her these things.
“Sure enough, I still have to look at it from a third-party perspective to get some unexpected information.” Huang Xiaoqi sighed slightly, but she didn’t jump to a conclusion.
So far, everything was just suspicion. It didn’t mean anything.
She still needed more evidence to determine what was going on with Lu Ping.
Was he lying to her? Or was there some other reason?
As she was thinking, Huang Xiaoqi took out a pair of glasses from her storage ring, put them on, and connected them to her phone.
These were virtual gaming glasses.
To cultivators, they weren’t anything special.
Now, they could even connect to the entire universe’s network through the connectivity ring.
Of course, things like gaining strength from online games, or people indulging in online games 24 hours a day, didn’t exist at all.
Moreover, there was no difference in the speed of time.
Therefore, most immortal cultivators’ energy was still focused on the real world. In the virtual network, some people were there for leisure and entertainment, while some people were able to carry out some actual combat training, but the connectivity ring was very expensive. A connectivity ring cost 30,000 star dollars. It was impossible for Lu Ping to afford it. Otherwise, Lu Ping could have practiced in the cosmic network.
As for the individual game glasses, they were much cheaper. They only cost 100 star dollars.
However, in this kind of game, all cultivation levels had to be blocked. Everything was virtual. Using the connectivity ring to connect to the cosmic network was completely different.
Generally speaking, for most cultivators, the contact with the universe network was actually essential.
Huang Xiaoqi chose the game under her list and entered the network. A beautiful scene appeared.
She was wearing a long green dress. Although her appearance was still beautiful, it was completely different from her real life.
She came to the lakeside, took out a fishing rod and threw it down!
Not long after, another person came online.
It was Lu Ping, whose username was Lu Chaotian.
Compared to Huang Xiaoqi, his appearance was much more ordinary.
He was completely different from his real-life handsome appearance. Instead, he had an ordinary, common face.
“Baby, you came so early.”
As Lu Ping spoke, he also sat to the side and took out a fishing rod to fish. Everything was so natural and familiar.
Huang Xiaoqi tilted her head to look at him.
This was the man who had accompanied her for seven years.
She still remembered that day when the two of them met at the lakeside. Just like now, they were fishing separately.
This was a very ordinary online game, and fishing could catch all kinds of fish from the lake.
To Huang Xiaoqi, this was just a way to pass the time and for Lu Ping, it was a way to earn a living.
Fish could be sold for money in the game and could also be exchanged for star dollars!
Although it wasn’t much, it was a way to earn money. And time was relatively free.
This was the reason why Lu Ping was fishing. Playing around was too extravagant for him.
From the beginning, the two of them gradually met.
There was no excitement; their feelings that grew over time.
They grew close and started a relationship. Although it was just an online relationship, they were both very careful in protecting it.
Hearing Lu Ping’s greeting, Huang Xiaoqi laughed, “I came up to wait for you. Hubby, did you think of me just now?”
“I did. I thought of you all the way back to school just now! How could I not think of my baby?” Lu Ping said without hesitation.
Huang Xiaoqi looked at the serious Lu Ping in front of her and smiled.
Compared to the stinky and mean Lu Ping in reality, the current Lu Ping’s words were much sweeter. How would she know that Lu Ping was not wary of people here, especially when facing her?
After being together for so many years, he had completely let go.
Huang Xiaoqi was the same.
In reality, Lu Ping’s matter was thrown to the back of Huang Xiaoqi’s mind. She was not in a hurry. As for the specifics, she would slowly find out.
And now, all she needed to do was to enjoy the time she had with Lu Ping. That was enough.
Seven years of time spent together. She would not make a rash decision just because of a few words from Lu Ping.
By the lakeside, the two of them sat together and whispered to each other. Their backs looked so harmonious.
Seeing this situation, no one would have thought that the two of them were still at daggers drawn in reality just now.
Finally, two hours later, Lu Ping logged off.
He stretched his back.
A smile appeared on his face. The fishing harvest was not bad. He sold it for two star dollars.
And in the canteen, two star dollars were enough for him to eat a normal meal.
As he was thinking, Lu Ping saw Zhang Biao open his eyes.
When Lu Ping came back, he was cultivating. Naturally, Lu Ping would not disturb him.
He just quietly went online to earn a few star dollars and stayed with Huang Xiaoqi for a while.
Zhang Biao saw Lu Ping and jumped off the bed. He asked with a smile, “Lu, how was the interview?”
Lu Ping raised his head slightly and was quite pleased with himself. “I passed!”
No matter when, it was always a great thing to show off to a friend.
“Haha! Lu is awesome!” Zhang Biao was also happy for Lu Ping.
“Let’s go eat!” Lu Ping said with a smile, “There’s even better news!”
“What news?” Zhang Biao asked curiously.
“Liu Qian didn’t pass!”
“She deserves it! She really deserves it!” Zhang Biao gritted his teeth and said.
He didn’t have a good impression of Liu Qian at all now.
What could be happier than seeing an ex like Liu Qian suffer?
