Xia Yu kept playing computer games. He then started to chat with Xu Youxiang in the last 15 minutes of his game time.
“Your closet of clothes is probably worth a lot of money, right?” Xia Yu was confused about why Xu Youxiang would sell herself for 100 thousand yuan.
“Not really. I made them with cheap fabrics,” Xu Youxiang replied.
She had this kind of talent?
Remembering how her additions included Fashion and Makeup, Xia Yu’s doubts disappeared.
If only Xu Youxiang’s legs were usable, she could have become the prettiest female programmer.
What a pity.
Xia Yu reached out his hand and squeezed his thigh with regret, getting a weak feeling.
Who knew when he would get another chance to pick a body-swap target? He could pick someone with medical skills and see if he could cure Xu Youxiang’s legs, and then make her work for him.
Xu Youxiang, with her programming talent, even if she wasn’t insanely talented like An Siyao, was still become the top of her field.
He squeezed his leg again.
“Take off your hand! Pervert!” Xu Youxiang cursed.
“No, this is your hand,” Xia Yu answered.
Confused by his answer for a few seconds, Xu Youxiang started cursing again.
However, Xu Youxiang had boundaries, she didn’t use any personal attacks.
After eight hours had ended, he returned to his own body.
It was four in the afternoon and in the middle of his work time.
After finishing “The Pope’s Dancer,” Xia Yu was motivated to play “Ode to the Sun,” but before he began, he came to and changed the song to “Art Gallery of the Changeling.”
He was supposed to pretend to be an ordinary Lv 3 pianist right now. “Ode to the Sun” was not something he should be able to play.
This way, even if An Siyao thought his playing seemed familiar, she would be hesitant because of the different playing levels.
The piano was not guzheng after all. Similar playing styles were very typical.
When he showed off his guzheng skills, which was much better than his piano-playing, there would be no doubt.
After he finished playing the piano, he began playing the violin.
By five-thirty p.m., at the end of work, Xia Yu went to find the coffee shop owner.
“What, you know the guzheng too?” The shop owner pressed his forehead.
“Hm. I’m actually better at it than piano.” In fact, Xia Yu’s guzheng songs weren’t as strong as his piano ones yet, but he would be soon.
He mentioned guzheng since he wanted to practice the instrument during his work time.
Though he couldn’t play unfamiliar songs, playing familiar songs was a type of practice.
At this point, it was critical that Xia Yu familiarized his fingers with the still somewhat unfamiliar guzheng.
“We can’t play three instruments a day.” The shop owner scratched his head and got an idea. “How about this… We do piano Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, play guzheng on Tuesdays and Saturdays, and the violin on Thursdays. We’ll see which instrument had more feedback and then change the days accordingly.”
“Then the guzheng…”
“I’ll get it. What brand of guzheng do you use normally?”
Different brands of guzheng had quite different tones.
“Flower-style guzheng. It may be hard to find,” Xia Yu replied.
“You can play Flower-style?” After the initial shock, the shop owner patted his chest. “Relax, this is not a problem.”
After reaching his goal, Xia Yu left the coffee shop. He took the subway to reach Kong Hanyue’s house.
Today was Monday, Zhong Yunze had already gone back to school.
After he pressed the doorbell, Kong Hanyue opened the door for him.
Today, Kong Hanyue didn’t hug him affectionately. Instead, she looked disappointed.
“What is it?” Xia Yu asked as he closed the door.
When he asked, Kong Hanyue’s heartache surged. She hugged Xia Yu and vented, “Xinxin got in trouble at school. She would be expelled.”
This sounded familiar?
Patting Kong Hanyue’s back, Xia Yu helped her to sit on the sofa, asking her about what had happened.
“Xinxin beat another student in the bathroom. She also stripped off that student’s clothes. When the teacher looked for her, she ran off. The school warned that she’d be on observation for a while and expelled if something else happened.”
Fighting in the bathroom? Stripping people? Getting expelled?
Remembering the story, Xia Yu’s expression became weird. Didn’t he hear about this yesterday when he was logged onto An Siyao while the Feng sisters were talking?
“Zhong Yunxin goes to East Land School?”
“How did you know about this? Has this already spread outside the school?” Kong Hanyue panicked.
Without explaining anything to Kong Hanyue, Xia Yu voiced his doubts. “Is Zhong Yunxin nice to you?”
Based on what Xia Yu knew, Zhong Yunxin was a bad girl. She probably gave a lot of headaches to Kong Hanyue.
Kong Hanyue could be repulsed by her biological daughter’s actions, and this was a daughter who wasn’t her blood. Why did she care so much about Zhong Yunxin?
“In his will, he said if Xinxin became a bad girl, and Zeze didn’t get into Dongong University, I wouldn’t get my shares for retirement!”
“…”
So it’s true.
Kong Hanyue was about to cry from feeling wronged. “When I called Xinxin, she was mean to me!”
Holding Xia Yu’s arm, she said chokingly, “What should I do?”
Before Kong Hanyue married Xia Dongyang, she didn’t have any notions about money. The only lesson she learned from that failed marriage was she had to have money.
And now, she was facing a crisis of having no money.
While those shares wouldn’t be given to her until she was 50-years-old, the money she received every month currently was dividends from those shares. If those shares didn’t go to her, her income would disappear.
“I’ll figure out something for you. Don’t worry.” Xia Yu thought of An Siyao.
If Zhong Yunxin went to East Land School, he could use An Siyao to interfere.
Although he needed a good reason to have An Siyao interfere, or he could be exposed.
If that couldn’t work, he could log onto Zhong Yunxin and teach her a lesson.
If he wanted to log onto Zhong Yunxin, he needed to go to the East Land School and see her before using Free Search. The campus wasn’t easy to enter, and Zhong Yunxin wouldn’t easily agree to see him. Not to mention there were a lot of loose ends.
He should try to use An Siyao’s body to solve this problem.
“Really? You can fix this?” Kong Hanyue hugged Xia Yu’s neck and looked at him expectantly.
“As long as Zhong Yunxin wouldn’t be expelled within five days, I can fix this.” Looking at Kong Hanyue’s eyes, Xia Yu said, “When have I ever lied to you?”
Remembering what Xia Yu had done before, Kong Hanyue stopped worrying. She didn’t know how Xia Yu could fix this, but nothing he’d promised to do had ever gone wrong, ever since he was young.
“Don’t let anyone know about what I’m fixing for you,” Xia Yu added.
Xia Yu wasn’t concerned with Kong Hanyue’s secrecy.
When he was a child, he found the place where Xia Dongyang hid his money and told Kong Hanyue. The two of them assumed Xia Dongyang never counted his money and often used his funds to improve their quality of life. One time, when Xia Yu wasn’t home, Kong Hanyue was seen by Xia Dongyang while stealing the money. She cried and cried but never gave up Xia Yu.
“As long as she doesn’t get expelled.” Kong Hanyue was afraid Xia Yu would be afraid to act with a lot of limits.
“I know.”
