Chapter 39: The Sleeping Dragon Met the Young Phoenix!

“There’s nothing here that needs your help. Right now, you should be enjoying your youth.”

“Go get your nails done, then get a pretty new hairstyle and switch up your look. Then go travel and see different scenery.”

Worried Lin Qin might refuse, Su Qian added sternly, “No refusing!”

Lin Qin froze on the other end of the phone.

Then she said helplessly, “Okay, Sister Su Qian. I’ll listen to you.”

Su Qian smiled in satisfaction. “That’s more like it. Think about where you want to travel first. When you get back, share your fun stories with me.”

Lin Qin replied obediently, “Okay, Sister Su Qian. I’ll plan my vacation well. You also need to take care of yourself and not work too hard.”

After hanging up, Su Qian transferred Lin Qin 200,000.

It was enough for her to enjoy the whole summer to the fullest.

Lin Qin had just hung up when she saw the transfer notification on her phone.

Her eyes instantly turned wet.

Su Qian originally wanted to share this with Lin Yue.

After thinking about it, she decided to wait until the admission letter arrived. Lin Yue would probably be even happier then.

Su Qian returned to Yun Jin Villa.

The moment she entered the room, she saw Ning Meng still guarding the black egg, and the egg showed no abnormalities.

The worry in her heart eased a little.

In the group, she sent Jiang Xiao Yu a message.

Su Qian (Modern Metropolis): “Xiao Yu, the medicine is mostly bought. The rest will be gathered within three days. Don’t panic. Hold on a little longer.”

Jiang Xiao Yu (Apocalypse Survival): “Su Qian! You’re my savior! If you were a man, I’d have your babies!”

“Pfft-”

Su Qian was drinking water. Hearing that, she sprayed it straight out.

She coughed while laughing and quickly replied, “Do you know your way of repaying someone is terrifying?”

Jiang Xiao Yu sent several laughing emojis.

Lin Yue (Ancient Household Intrigue): “Hahahaha, what did I just see? Xiao Yu is as always – repaying kindness with revenge. I’m dying.”

Xia Meng Meng (Cultivation Cannon Fodder): “[Covering face] I told you. Every time I lurk, nothing good happens.”

Su Qian quickly replied, “Xiao Yu is ruining my reputation!”

Jiang Xiao Yu (Apocalypse Survival): “Tch~~ My orientation is totally normal. I recently ran into a 185cm double-door, slim waist, long legs, big handsome guy. What a pity, I couldn’t hook him. I’m dying over here.”

Lin Yue (Ancient Household Intrigue): “Oh? You still have time for that in the Apocalypse? Hurry and tell us how handsome he is.”

Jiang Xiao Yu (Apocalypse Survival): “That body, that face – unreal! The first time I saw him, he was killing zombies. His movements were smooth like flowing water, so hot I nearly bled out. I had only one thought: sleep with him!”

Xia Meng Meng (Cultivation Cannon Fodder): “Xiao Yu’s spring is here.”

Su Qian read the messages and the corner of her mouth twitched.

Good grief.

Jiang Xiao Yu really ran into someone who fit her tastes perfectly.

Su Qian replied, “This is where you should learn from Meng Qi. Chasing a man can’t be rushed. Try a bit harder.”

Su Qian was completely clueless about romance and could not offer any real advice.

As for Xia Meng Meng, she was still a little brat.

Lin Yue was thin-skinned, too, and probably did not have much experience either.

Jiang Xiao Yu (Apocalypse Survival): “I did try, okay? But he doesn’t seem interested. I gave him compressed biscuits and little bread, and he wouldn’t take them.”

Su Qian @-ed Shen Meng Qi. “Meng Qi, teach Xiao Yu how to pick up men.”

In the Beast World, Shen Meng Qi was in a luxurious grand palace, lazily leaning in the arms of a handsome man.

Seeing Su Qian’s @, she smiled.

Shen Meng Qi (Beast World Darling): “If we’re talking about sleeping with men, I have plenty to say. But chasing men, I have no experience. People always chase me.”

Everyone else: “…”

That hurt.

Su Qian (Modern Metropolis): “Xiao Yu, sometimes you can’t be too proactive with a man. You need to pull back to draw him in. Stop chasing him and giving him things all the time. Ignore him for a while and see what happens.”

The group started talking all at once, giving Jiang Xiao Yu advice.

Su Qian’s approach was: if the enemy didn’t move, she didn’t move.

Lin Yue’s approach was: watch quietly, wait for the right moment.

In the end, Shen Meng Qi still came out with the most outrageous suggestion. She told Jiang Xiao Yu to tie him up and force her way through!

Jiang Xiao Yu was impatient by nature. In the end, she made the call. “Fine! I’ll listen to Meng Qi. I won’t lose out anyway.”

Everyone else in the chat went blank.

Su Qian stared, stunned.

She really ran into an expert.

Jiang Xiao Yu (Apocalypse Survival): “Su Qian, next time send me some sleeping pills or something. I’ll tie him up! I’m impatient. I refuse to believe there’s a man I can’t handle!”

Su Qian rubbed her forehead, utterly speechless, and replied, “Do you want to think about it again?”

Lin Yue (Ancient Household Intrigue): “Yeah, Xiao Yu. What if it backfires?”

Xia Meng Meng (Cultivation Cannon Fodder): “Xiao Yu sister, you have to think twice.”

Jiang Xiao Yu (Apocalypse Survival): “What’s there to fear? When have I, Jiang Xiao Yu, ever been scared? It’s decided. Wait for my good news.”

Shen Meng Qi (Beast World Darling): “[Satisfied] Xiao Yu has graduated. Sister is so proud.”

Jiang Xiao Yu (Apocalypse Survival): “High mountains and flowing water, finding a kindred spirit-”

Su Qian watched the chat spam and did not know whether to laugh or cry.

That poem was used like that?

One dared to suggest it, and one dared to do it.

This was the Sleeping Dragon meeting the Young Phoenix!

It was late at night. Su Qian felt sleepy. She placed the black egg by the bed, covered it with a blanket, and set up simple protective measures to make sure Ning Meng would not bump it during the night.

Once everything was arranged, she was just about to lie down and rest.

Someone @-ed her in the Chat Group.

Shen Meng Qi (Beast World Darling): “Su Qian darling, don’t forget what I asked for. I’m waiting for you to feed me [finger heart]”

Su Qian: “!!!”

She almost forgot about that.

No escape. She really could not dodge it.

Su Qian’s finger hovered over the screen for a moment. Then she gritted her teeth and replied, “Tomorrow! Tomorrow I’ll send it to you!”

Shen Meng Qi sent a flood of emojis to thank Su Qian.

The spectators in the group came online.

But Su Qian did not pay attention anymore. She lay down on the bed, completely drained.

Her head felt like it hurt.

Ning Meng had already curled up by the bed and fallen asleep, making faint purring snores.

In the darkness, the egg seemed to glow faintly, adding a mysterious air to the room.

She could even hear a faint cracking sound, “ka-cha.”

Early the next morning.

Su Qian groggily opened her eyes.

The glowing black egg by the bed had kept her up all night, like a small night-light.

Hm?

Su Qian sensed something was off.

“Why are there so many cracks?” Su Qian’s heart jolted.

In an instant, all sleepiness vanished. She stared nervously at the black egg, now covered in cracks.

“Buddy, don’t mess around. Now isn’t the time to come out.”

Su Qian panicked.
