Chapter 226: Chapter 226- Anything For Money, Even If It Is Ren Suo!

“Xiao Yan, you’re here earlier than usual. What’s the matter?”

When Dong Chengling saw Gu Yueyan and Lin Xianyu at her doorstep in the afternoon, she was slightly surprised. Based on her personality, she knew that Gu Yueyan would rarely look for her, unless there were important matters. It was not because the relationship between them was poor, but because Gu Yueyan was not willing to disturb Dong Chengling in her Practice.

Gu Yueyan walked into the house with a grim look and sat down. In contrast, Lin Xianyu only covered her mouth as she grinned and stood at the side. Dong Chengling walked over to the refrigerator and took out two bottles of iced coconut milk for them. She asked, “Did you encounter an obstacle in your Practice?”

Gu Yueyan shook her head.

“Did you fall out with your dorm mates?” Dong Chengling guessed. It was very typical of girls to get into arguments when they lived under the same roof, in the same dormitory room. Dong Chengling could still remember that when she was studying in university, she lived together with three other dorm mates in one room, but there were a total of four separate chat groups.

Gu Yueyan shook her head again.

“Did you… fall in love?” Dong Chengling guessed again. A smile emerged on her face as she added, “I don’t think the Heavenly Institution of Lian prohibits early relationships. Which boy won your favor?”

Gu Yueyan did not want to keep her in suspense any further. She said, “I discovered that guy, Ren Suo, committing a crime!”

“That guy Ren Suo… You two are on such good terms with each other,” Dong Chengling remarked with a laugh.

“No, we are not!” Gu Yueyan retorted. She continued, “Teacher, the point is that he committed a crime! He must be blacklisted and must not be allowed to step into this house ever again!”

“Okay, okay,” replied Dong Chengling, laughing as she held a cup of water in her hand. She asked, “What crime did he commit? Did he fail to resuscitate someone? Was there a medical incident? Or did he not pay when eating at the dining hall?”

Gu Yueyan looked at Dong Chengling and said very seriously, “He called for home service, that is… the kind of home service for people to unleash their deepest, darkest desires. The person that he engaged has already arrived in school, and both Xiao Yu and I saw them. Ren Suo could not hold himself back and hugged the other person the moment they saw each other at the school gate. The other person even rubbed their faces together intimately in an experienced way. After that, Ren Suo brought the person to his home.”

The cup in Dong Chengling’s hand tilted slightly. She blinked and looked at Gu Yueyan.

Gu Yueyan continued, “Furthermore, the person who came to Ren Suo’s service… it was a man.”

Bang!

Dong Chengling looked at the broken cup in her hand. She quickly cleared the shattered pieces of the cup and explained, “The quality of this cup is so poor, it exploded when just a bit of hot water was in it…”

Lin Xianyu glanced at the broken cup and thought to herself: a poor quality cup would explode outwards, but in this case, the cup clearly shattered inwards due to the pressure from where your fingers were when you were holding the cup!

However, Gu Yueyan could not be bothered about such details. She asked, “So, Teacher, what are you intending to do? Are you going to call the police?”

Dong Chengling remained silent for a moment, then replied, “At the least, we must have some evidence before we call the police, or we may end up wrongly accusing a good person.”

“Are we heading over then?” Gu Yueyan asked.

“Yes, we will,” Dong Chengling said as she nodded. She explained her reason for doing so: “We must stop a friend from falling into the bottomless pit of crimes.”

“Yes, it is because we want to stop him from committing a crime! It will mean trouble if news of a pervert in our school goes around!” Gu Yueyan exclaimed. Having found a reason for herself to do that, she also nodded her head vigorously.

Putting their plan immediately into action, Dong Chengling and Gu Yueyan headed over to the dormitory building where Ren Suo was at. Lin Xianyu also followed them to get in on the ‘action’.

First, they rang the doorbell.

There was no response.

Lin Xianyu said, “We can’t do anything if he doesn’t open the door.”

Gu Yueyan took out her mobile phone and said, “I’ll call him then.”

Beep– “Sorry, the number you have dialed is not available at this time, please try again later.”

Lin Xianyu blushed and said with a grin, “Is it because he is too busy doing something else to answer the call?”

The expression on Gu Yueyan and Dong Chengling’s faces instantly changed. Dong Chengling thought for three seconds and said, “I’ll open the door then.”

“Eh? Teacher, you have the key to his house?” Gu Yueyan asked. She was slightly stunned.

“No. However, even without the key… I can still open the door,” Dong Chengling replied.

She stretched out her slender index finger, inserted it into the keyhole of the anti-theft door, and twisted it.

“It’s open,” Dong Chengling said calmly. She continued, “I’ll need to pay for a replacement lock later.”

Gu Yueyan and Lin Xianyu swallowed their saliva. Lin Xianyu pat Gu Yueyan on her shoulder and threw her a glance, implying that “you still have a long way to go”. However, Gu Yueyan did not catch what Lin Xianyu was trying to say. She nodded and said, “Look at that, how skillful Teacher Dong is.”

“The more skillful she is, the more danger you are in…” Lin Xianyu muttered in reply.

The inner door was unlocked. The three of them took a deep breath and quickly pushed the door open!

Loud sounds came from the living room. In full view of Dong Chengling and the other two girls, they saw Ren Suo and ‘the man’ lying on the couch in front of the television. They were each holding onto a game controller and playing a hack-and-slash game.

“Eh? What brings you all here?” Ren Suo asked as he turned to look at them. He added, “I only have two game controllers though.”

——————

“This is… your sister?” remarked Dong Chengling, slightly surprised.

Dong Chengling and the two of them sat on the other side of the couch as they looked curiously at the ‘handsome’ teenager beside Ren Suo.

“Hee hee,” the teenager said. The teenager removed her hat and untied her hair tie, then retied her hair into a ponytail. In an instant, the teenager ‘turned’ into a cute girl.

She hugged Ren Suo’s shoulder as she continued playing the game. She laughed and said, “The weather was so hot recently that I cut my hair short. I did not expect people to think that I am a guy.”

“Hello everyone, I am Ren Xingmei, Ren Suo’s younger sister. Please call me Xing Xing or Xing Mei will do too. Just don’t call me by my full name; otherwise, it will sound like I am getting scolded,” Ren Xingmei said with a smile.

“Ren Xingmei… Tch, it sounds like ‘willful girl’,” Lin Xianyu remarked. She smiled and said, “Your name can compare to mine! Mine sounds like ‘salty fish’, and yours sounds like ‘willful girl’!”

“I did not expect my brother to actually be friends with female high school students. You must know that he has never brought any high school girl home when he was in high school,” Ren Xingmei said. She added, “I was still thinking that the girls here would certainly not like my bro!”

“You’re right!” Gu Yueyan exclaimed.

“Of course not!” Lin Xianyu exclaimed.

Ren Suo exclaimed, “Ah, ah, come and save me, I am going to die!”

Ren Xingmei replied, “I’m coming, I’m coming! You’re such a noob at this!”

Dong Chengling asked curiously, “Ren… Xiao Xingxing, why are you dressed in guy’s clothes though?”

“Eh?” Ren Xingmei said as her eyes remained glued to the television screen. She replied, “Oh, it’s because I’m used to it.”

“Well, our family was poor when I was younger. Ren Suo was about the same size as me, so I just wore his clothes. Growing up, I still feel that men’s clothes are more comfortable, and it makes me look more handsome too. I can even pretend to be my classmates’ boyfriends when I go out with them!” Ren Xingmei explained with a laugh.

Dong Chengling and the other two finally understood. At that juncture, Ren Suo laughed and slapped Ren Xingmei’s chest. He said, “It’s all because she’s flat-chested.”

Dong Chengling was speechless: “…”

Gu Yueyan was speechless: “…”

Lin Xianyu was speechless: “…”

They saw a clear flash of evil in Ren Xingmei’s eyes.

[There is a path to heaven, and yet you chose to bring yourself to your doom where there is not even a door!]

The game character on the television screen suddenly cast his ultimate move: his body exploded into a golden glow, growing larger than the mini-universe in the game, ripping his underpants and killing the boss mercilessly!

“Wow, Sis, you don’t need to do all of that just to defeat this mini-boss, do you?” Ren Suo remarked. He said, “We still have to battle the Quilt King and the family of heroes later.”

Gu Yueyan suddenly recalled something. She asked, “Why did you give your sister money at the gate just now?”

“Give her money? Oh, she’s here to play games with me and take a look around the Heavenly Institution of Lian at the same time. She said that she spent a lot of money to come all the way here, so I gave her money in return then,” Ren Suo replied happily. Suddenly, he became more excited and exclaimed, “Ah— I’m dying, I’m dying! ”

“Let me make a trip to the washroom first,” Ren Xingmei said as she paused the game and placed her game controller down. She smiled at Dong Chengling and the rest of them, then walked into the washroom.

Gu Yueyan and Dong Chengling exchanged glances. They were relieved; fortunately, it was just his sister.

‘Wait, even if they are siblings…’ Gu Yueyan thought as she suddenly recalled the scene when Ren Suo and Ren Xingmei hugged each other at the school gate. She also recalled the cold interactions between her and her own brother and thought, ‘They are still overly intimate with each other compared to ordinary siblings, aren’t they?!’

——————

“Tch, I didn’t expect that there would still be other girls who would fancy this dork of a brother…”

After washing her face in the washroom, Ren Xingmei looked coldly at the cute girl in the mirror. She began to tidy herself up.

She was not like Ren Suo—when she saw the girls barge into the house, even when the door was locked, she could tell that at least one of them was very concerned about Ren Suo.

“Mom said before that Bro earned a lot, and his living expenses in school are also mostly covered for, so he does not need to spend much money usually. He did not even remove the game console from the box, so he must have been really busy. He would not have had much time to go out either, and his savings must be piling up high.”

“In the past, when he was happy from playing games, he would easily give me his living allowance if I asked. I must not miss this chance to milk the cow, now that I have traveled all the way here.”

“However, when he has a girlfriend, he certainly would want to save up for dates, to be able to book a night at a hotel or even to buy a house and a car. He might not be willing to give me any of his money then…”

“I must not let what’s mine get into the hands of outsiders. Instead of spending it on women, it would be better to give it to me as my first pot of gold. In that way, when I become successful in the future, would I not repay this silly dork of a brother whose IQ is all the way at the bottom of the barrel?”

“I’ve been playing games with him for so many years, even though I’m a girl. Is it too much to ask for money now?”

Ren Xingmei adjusted her collar and went back to the living room. By the time she stepped out of the washroom, she had set her new goal:

“I must make sure that silly dork of a brother remains single!”

“Even if it’s for a brother like Ren Suo, I, Little Star (Xiao Xingxing) will show you what I am capable of, as long as it is for the benefit of receiving money!”
