Chapter 34: People who are truly kind to me!
However, thinking that it was impossible for people from the Fengtian Star Academy to help her and that Lan Zhi was the only one who had shown kindness to her in these years, she hesitated for a moment and then gritted her teeth and said, "Okay, I'll team up with you. Let's help each other." Lan Zhi smiled and said, "You don't need to help me. I don't have any tasks that need to be done." Jin Yuman said in surprise, "Have you already finished them?" Those who didn't need to do tasks were either ordinary people who hadn't started cultivating yet or those who had already completed their tasks. But ordinary people wouldn't have scroll totems. Jin Yuman subconsciously looked at Lan Zhi's wrist. Lan Zhi's hand was resting on her knee, and half of a golden scroll totem was exposed on her wrist. Golden! Jin Yuman's eyes lit up. As everyone knew, if the task hadn't been completed three months before the settlement, the scroll totem would automatically turn red. Now her totem was red. Lan Zhi's being golden meant that she had already completed the task! Jin Yuman asked excitedly, "Did you complete it independently? Was the task particularly difficult?" Lan Zhi guessed and said, "It probably wasn't difficult." Jin Yuman could hardly believe it and said, "You're not deliberately coaxing me, are you? I heard from the senior brothers and sisters in the Star Academy who had already completed the task that it was extremely difficult and they would get injured every time they went... Ah, a rat!" Lan Zhi turned her head and saw several rats of different sizes scurrying out of the gutter not far away, running in different directions. Several of them were running towards them, but after hearing Jin Yuman's scream, they were so scared that they turned around and ran in other directions. She casually flicked her finger. With a few hissing sounds, all the rats instantly fell to the ground and died. Jin Yuman was stunned for a moment and then said in surprise, "You're so amazing! Please, you must help me complete the task! I won't hire anyone else. I'll give you all one million!" Lan Zhi: "!!!" Seeing that she didn't say anything, Jin Yuman thought that she had offered too low a price and quickly said, "One million five hundred thousand!" Lan Zhi took a deep breath. Jin Yuman became even more nervous and said, "Two million?" Seeing how innocent she was, Lan Zhi couldn't bear it and said, "I'm not like those people in the Fengtian Star Academy. Just pay me the market price." Jin Yuman's eyes lit up immediately and she said, "You're the first person I've ever met who doesn't covet my money!" Lan Zhi: "..." Jin Yuman said, "My father once said that only those who don't covet my money are the people who are truly kind to me! I've finally met someone who is truly kind to me! Then it's two million. Please help me." Lan Zhi: "... As long as you're happy." She looked up and around but didn't see Xing Zhi's figure, so she said, "Wait a moment. I have one more friend." Lan Zhi got up and ran out of the alley. She saw Xing Zhi standing beside the wall of a courtyard of a household, facing the wall and didn't know what he was looking at.
