Chapter 018: Accidentally Added an Extra Zero

Tonight, the moon is bright and the stars are sparse. After having a good time fooling around with his roommates Zhou Haiquan, Xiong Tao, and Cao Jinyan, Chen Yuan was getting ready to take a shower and go to bed.

In the bathroom, Chen Yuan discovered that he had actually developed eight-pack abs. His previously skinny body had become incredibly muscular after taking off his clothes. He was the perfect example of looking thin in clothes but having a well-built body when undressed.

"The enhancement points from the system are really effective. For an ordinary person, it would take at least three to five years of working out in the gym to get a body like this," Chen Yuan thought to himself.

Just 20 enhancement points had almost doubled his physical fitness and strength. And this was just from countering and surpassing Lin Shutong. If he countered and surpassed more goddesses, Chen Yuan wondered if it was possible for him to become a superhero in the future.

"However, the 'Sycophant Gold' rewarded this time is still too little, only 5,000 yuan. I should have spent more money on Lin Shutong. I knew it," Chen Yuan shook his head regretfully.

Not long ago, he had just checked his personal bank account and indeed found an additional 5,000 yuan in it. This 5,000 yuan was his own money, and he could spend it however he wanted. For an ordinary junior college student like him, this was a rather substantial sum of money.

No matter how much Sycophant Gold he had, it couldn't be spent on himself. Having money in his personal account made Chen Yuan feel more confident.

After finishing his wash, Chen Yuan noticed several unread messages on WeChat. He opened them one by one.

Zhao Yuqi: [Good night, my number one fan!]

Lin Shutong: [Chen Yuan, I know my actions might have completely broken your heart. But you haven't blocked me as a friend, which means there is still a little bit of care for me in your heart. I know it's useless to say anything now, and I really regret it. I regret that I didn't realize until now who was truly good to me. Chen Yuan, I care about you in my heart. I've always cared about you. Please don't leave me. Give me a chance, and I will make up for the debt I owed you in the past!]

Xu Lele: [Brother Chen Yuan, can you lend me some money?]

Chen Yuan read all three messages carefully. He replied "Good night!" to Zhao Yuqi's message. He didn't reply to Lin Shutong at all. And as for Xu Lele's message...

According to common sense, the person Chen Yuan should pay the least attention to should be Xu Lele. Because this woman always talked about money. Last time, Chen Yuan had spent hundreds of thousands of yuan on her, but she still wasn't satisfied. Now she was actually asking for money on her own initiative?

To be honest, Xu Lele's behavior was a bit ugly. And this woman didn't have a good reputation. She not only flirted with rich second-generation guys everywhere but also seemed to accept money from any boy in the school who was willing to spend on her.

If Lin Shutong was a typical green tea girl, then Xu Lele was a gold-digging and promiscuous woman. She was not only money-oriented but also openly promiscuous.

However, for Chen Yuan now, he actually liked women like Xu Lele the most. He wasn't afraid of her being money-oriented or her asking for money. He was just afraid that she didn't ask for enough! He had 90 trillion Sycophant Gold, and how much had he spent so far? At this rate, it seemed that it would take him ten thousand years to spend it all. He had to increase the amount of money he spent.

Chen Yuan decisively replied with a message: "How much do you need?"

On the other side, in a shared rental house in Menghu Shui'an Community. Looking at the message Chen Yuan had replied, a glimmer of hope appeared in Xu Lele's desperate eyes. In the past two days, she had been chased by a loan shark company and didn't even dare to go to school.

"Chen Yuan, my dad's business failed, and he also owes money to loan sharks. Can you help me?"

Xu Lele wasn't lying to Chen Yuan. Her father, Xu Tian'ao, had originally been in the internet café business. He had 17 chain internet cafes in Hancheng and had assets worth several tens of millions. The internet café business had been booming before, and the money he had invested would have been recovered within a year or two. But who would have expected that a sudden epidemic would deal an unprecedented blow to internet cafes all over the city and even the whole country! All internet cafes were forced to close for business, and the closure lasted for half a year. As a result, Xu Lele's family went bankrupt.

Her former close girlfriends and friends now kept a distance from her. Before asking Chen Yuan for a loan, Xu Lele had borrowed money from almost all of her friends, especially those rich second-generation guys who had once pursued her. However, when Xu Lele asked for a large sum of money, those so-called rich second-generation guys immediately distanced themselves from her as soon as they heard the amount. Some even insulted her, calling her a "bitch."

Of course, it was wrong to swear. But from another perspective, when you ask someone to borrow such a large amount of money, and your family has a bottomless pit of a loan shark debt, do you really think others are stupid and willing to throw away their money? Without any promises or guarantees, no written agreements, just relying on your body and beauty? Don't be naive! This society is very realistic. Why would someone spend millions on a woman when they can have her for just tens of thousands of yuan?

Xu Lele was a bit nervous. Although Chen Yuan was rich, he might not necessarily be willing to lend her such a large sum of money. Moreover, because Wang Yu had suddenly appeared last time, Chen Yuan had become a bit disgusted with her. She wasn't sure.

"Brother Chen Yuan, I want to borrow 500,000 yuan. Don't worry, I can sign an agreement with you and will definitely pay you back," she said.

"Send me your bank card number," Chen Yuan typed and replied. He didn't waste any words.

"Okay!"

"My bank card number is 6225..."

After a while, Xu Lele received a bank transfer notification.

"Ding! Your account with the tail number 6987 has received a transfer of 5,000,000 yuan!"

Looking at the bank message, Xu Lele was stunned.

"Brother Chen Yuan, I only borrowed 500,000 yuan. Why did you transfer 5 million yuan to me?" Xu Lele quickly sent a message to ask.

"Oh! I accidentally added an extra zero," Chen Yuan replied.

Upon seeing this message, Xu Lele burst into tears. She really cried.

"Brother Chen Yuan, you actually care about me. Otherwise, how would you know that my family owes a total of 5 million yuan in loan shark debt? You must have already investigated it clearly. Thank you, Brother Chen Yuan. I really don't know how to thank you. I will definitely repay you!"

All the grievances Xu Lele had suffered in the past two days burst out at this moment. The huge pressure she had been under instantly vanished. Her family owed a total of 4.8 million yuan in loan shark debt. As a student, even if she sold her body, she couldn't raise such a large sum of money in a short time. She had just asked for a loan with the thought of getting as much as she could. She had borrowed from all her friends, and those boys who had once said they loved her, would protect her, and were willing to do anything for her, in the end, didn't even lend her a single penny. Especially those rich second-generation guys, the richer they were, the more stingy they became.

And Chen Yuan. He didn't ask anything. He didn't even mention signing a loan agreement. He just transferred 5 million yuan to her. This sum of money was enough to pay off all her family's loan shark debts at once!

Xu Lele was deeply touched. The hard shell in her heart was broken, and she completely fell for Chen Yuan. At this moment, Chen Yuan's slightly thin figure suddenly seemed extremely tall and imposing in Xu Lele's memory. She felt that this man exuded an unprecedented sense of security and was so fascinating.

As for the fact that there were several boys on Xu Lele's WeChat who had lent her their entire monthly living expenses, she seemed to have selectively ignored that.
