CHAPTER 39: CHAPTER 39: WHAT ARE YOU INVESTIGATING?

He was just waiting for Rong Qingqing, and indeed he waited for her. As expected, Rong Qingqing used the same trick again tonight.

But he didn’t expect Rong Qingqing to play so unpredictably, turning one yuan into two yuan.

This made him embarrassed to even take out the one yuan coin hidden in his pocket.

"Yesterday is yesterday, today is today." Rong Qingqing tugged at Shen Jue’s clothes and urged, "Didn’t you say you brought money? Hurry up and give it to him, see if he still claims we are stingy!"

Rong Qingqing looked down at the beggar with a smug expression, eyebrow raised, and extended her hand towards Shen Jue for money.

Shen Jue’s eyelids kept twitching.

He did bring money, but only one yuan, and there’s no way he would admit this to Rong Qingqing, because he knew she’d label him as stingy. So, Shen Jue gritted his teeth and denied it, "Didn’t bring any! I was fooling you! Nowadays, who carries cash on them anymore?"

"If you sincerely want to give, then scan the QR code." The beggar sat up, just as he did yesterday, and tossed over the QR code.

Rong Qingqing nodded and turned to look at Shen Jue, "Take out your phone and scan two yuan to him."

Shen Jue sneered coldly, "Didn’t bring it."

Seeing Rong Qingqing give him a look as if to say, "How can you be so stingy?" Shen Jue smiled in exasperation, "I just came out of the bathroom and you hurriedly pushed me out. My phone is on the coffee table, are you blind and couldn’t see?"

This little detail was something Rong Qingqing hadn’t really noticed.

She thought since they had already finished dinner, Shen Jue’s phone should be with him, so she casually asked if he brought money.

The beggar looked at Shen Jue, then at Rong Qingqing, and laughed coldly again and again.

"I see it clearly now, the richer they are, the stingier they are. That’s fine, but being rich, stingy, and still like to toy with people!"

The beggar put away the QR code, flipped over the bowl, and lay back down.

"Qiaoqiao, you come." Shen Jue called over Shen Qiao, who was pouting angrily at the side, "You scan it, I’ll transfer it to you when we get back."

The three of them were out for just fifteen minutes before returning to Shen Manor.

Shen Qiao was angry at Rong Qingqing for bullying her brother and ignored her all the way back home, going straight upstairs the moment they arrived.

Rong Qingqing sighed, "Little girl’s temper is like June’s weather, there’s a thunderstorm every day."

After saying that, Rong Qingqing went to pick up Shen Jue’s phone from the coffee table and handed it to him, personally supervising Shen Jue to transfer the money to Shen Qiao.

"Mission complete, life span increased by 10 hours, host’s remaining life span: 16.5 hours."

Rong Qingqing happily patted Shen Jue on the shoulder, "Thanks, bro!"

Shen Jue coldly slapped Rong Qingqing’s hand away, "No one is your brother."

After saying that, Shen Jue walked away.

He miscalculated, tonight he was tricked by this woman Rong Qingqing again.

Tomorrow, huh, tomorrow I definitely won’t give her another chance!

After Shen Jue went upstairs, Rong Qingqing only then remembered there was still a daily task she hadn’t done today.

She dawdled downstairs, and only half an hour later did she go upstairs to knock on Shen Jue’s room door, afraid he wouldn’t open the door, Rong Qingqing spoke in a particularly serious tone, "Shen Jue, I have something to discuss with you."

Shen Jue replied to her through the door, "If you have something to say, say it at the door."

Rong Qingqing looked at the door and clicked her tongue.

"Isn’t it embarrassing to make me stand outside talking like this?" Rong Qingqing urged, "I know you’re not resting yet, quickly open the door for me, I just need to say something, if quick, it will only take a minute."
