Chapter 15: What's your dream?

At that time, Qiu Wanxi did not have the slightest resistance to Lin Yuan's actions.

Her face had an expression of enjoyment.

She had a very favorable impression of Lin Yuan and had great trust in him. Not only was Lin Yuan wealthy and treated her to delicious food, but she found that Lin Yuan shared many of the same interests and likes as her.

He was someone who could chat for a long time. She liked Lin Yuan as a friend. However, Lin Yuan was very dazzling. She felt ashamed of her inferiority when compared to his perfection. She did not dare feel the inexplicable throbbing in her heart and resolutely suppressed those emotions down.

"I can meet Master Lin; even if it's only for half a day, I feel that my life is worth it." Qiu Wanxi couldn't help thinking as she looked at Lin Yuan's handsome and dashing face from the side.

[Ding! Counterattack points plus 100! ]

Lin Yuan looked at the enjoying expression on her face and took advantage of the situation to ask, "Do you have work at multiple places?"

"En," Qiu Wanxi replied.

"Then aren't you supposed to save a lot of money? Why do you wear such pants?" Lin Yuan asked suddenly.

"Ah!" The enjoying expression on her face turned lifeless upon hearing Lin Yuan's words.

"Sorry! Sorry! I only have fifty yuan, and it is not that I don't want to treat you to better food. Sorry!"

Qiu Wanxi had low self-esteem. She feels lowly like a speck of dust when compared to Lin Yuan, who is dazzling like the sun. However, Lin Yuan's warmth gave her a little courage.

When Lin Yuan asked her why she did not have enough money to change her trousers, she immediately thought that Lin Yuan believed that she was not willing to spend money to treat him to delicious food, rather than think of other problems.

"No, I believe you only have fifty yuan. The noodles were also delicious, but why didn't you save money?" Lin Yuan asked.

As LIn Yuan spoke the words from his mouth, Qiu Wanxi's eyes were full of tangle and panic at the same time. However, Lin Yuan believed that it would be better for Qiu Wanxi to speak up to increase his favorability instead of exposing it himself.

Qiu Wanxi did not know that Lin Yuan knew her inside out. She didn't intend to talk to Lin Yuan about her liver disease, but she was more afraid that Lin Yuan thought she was a very stingy person.

So Qiu Wanxi gritted her teeth and talked all about her life experience again. This was the first time she had told others her story.

"When I was six years old…"

Although he already knew about it earlier, Lin Yuan still looked at Qiu Wanxi and listened quietly and earnestly.

"The doctor said that I would have to undergo a major operation to cure my illness, costing at least one million. Every month, I had to get put on an IV, and all the money I worked is to pay for the IV…"

Qiu Wanxi said while crying.

In fact, over the years, she had already accepted her fate of suffering. However, no one would listen to her attentively as she said everything on her mind. This made her so inferiority-complex and autism even worse. She burst into tears as she spoke of her life experience.

Lin Yuan did not expect that after finishing her story, Qiu Wanxi ran away in the forward direction. She ran away very quickly and suddenly, making it a tricky escape.

However, Qiu Wanxi, a malnourished girl, couldn't compare to Lin Yuan in physical fitness. Lin Yuan quickly chased for dozens of meters, and then took her hand.

"Why are you running away?" Lin Yuan asked.

At this time, looking at Qiu Wanxi's tear-stained face, made people feel a sense of pity. The passer-by uncles and aunts kept their calm in the face of the situation, as they thought that the young couple had a falling out.

After panting for a few breaths, Qiu Wanxi lowered her head and explained meekly, "I… I didn't want to tell you that I am sick."

"Why?" Lin Yuan asked.

Qiu Wanxi clenched the corner of her clothes tightly and said nervously: "Because you are rich, I'm afraid that after I said it, you will think I know you have money and wanted to cheat you, so I deliberately said I was sick. I ran away, so you won't think I wanted to swindle your money."

Lin Yuan laughed and said: "You can run away from me with your short legs! As you said, I can still say that you pretended to run on purpose."

"I didn't! I really didn't!" Qiu Wanxi cried anxiously after hearing Lin Yuan's words, repeatedly explaining.

Lin Yuan's placed his hand on Qiu Wanxi's head again, "Be at ease, I believe you."

"I just want to tell you that if you want to cheat somebody, there are many methods to do so. But I believe you."

Lin Yuan knew Qiu Wanxi's character and knew that Qiu Wanxi had spoken the truth.

She had told him that she was sick under his guidance to speak. In the original novel, Qiu Wanxi was a girl brimming with hope and did not ask anyone for help.

"Thank you…Thank you, Master Lin!" Qiu Wanxi grabbed Lin Yuan's hand, and her heart was very moved.

Lin Yuan's trust is a great affirmation to someone like her who has an inferiority complex.

[Ding! Counterattack point +200]

The system sent him the reward prompt.

Lin Yuan touched his pocket, took out 100 yuan, and handed it to Qiu Wanxi.

"Pay your salary." Lin Yuan said.

"Ah! Out of the question! I can't take it! You invited me to eat so many things today!" Qiu Wanxi froze for a moment, and then repeatedly waved her hands to refuse.

"Don't tell me that 100 yuan is not worth accompanying me for half a day? Is my time so worthless?" Lin Yuan directly pulled Qiu Wanxi's little hand and stuffed the money into it.

Qiu Wanxi did not dare resist. She held onto the 100 yuan note with a red face.

"Oh, by the way, what is your dream?" Lin Yuan blurted out the question suddenly.

Qiu Wanxi's eyes suddenly lit up, hearing Lin Yuan's words like a light shining in the darkness.
