#139 - Chapter 139: Very Difficult
"New?"
Li Chenqiu looked at the somewhat ethereal character.
Xiang Nanzhi made a scissor-hand gesture: "Add two more characters, get it now!"
After speaking, Xiang Nanzhi reached out and wiped off the word "New" on the glass.
"New plus two more characters..." Li Chenqiu raised an eyebrow, instantly thinking of a major power.
New World!
Just as Li Chenqiu was about to ask more questions, a voice came from behind the bed curtain.
"Big Brother Li Chenqiu, can I come in and talk to you?"
Li Chenqiu reached out and lifted the bed curtain, revealing a young man who looked to be about eighteen or nineteen years old.
The young man had a fair complexion, slightly curly hair, and wore a set of expensive-looking clothes. He was now standing on tiptoes, looking at Li Chenqiu with a smile.
"Wow, it's really Li Chenqiu, he looks exactly like he does on TV, so handsome!"
"So awesome, he can purify the Six Forbidden Revived Beasts at such a young age, he's going to soar to the heavens in the future!"
"Should we go over and show our faces?"
Those who saw Li Chenqiu for the first time discussed excitedly.
Li Chenqiu sized up the young man and asked, "What do you want from me?"
"Hello, hello, my name is Zhou Qinshu." Zhou Qinshu enthusiastically grabbed Li Chenqiu's hand.
"Hello, what do you want from me?"
As he spoke, Li Chenqiu subtly withdrew his hand.
Zhou Qinshu asked sincerely, "I have something I want to discuss with you, can I get on the bed and chat with you?"
"Sorry, my place is not very..."
Before Li Chenqiu could finish speaking, Zhou Qinshu grabbed his hand again: "Just a few minutes."
Li Chenqiu hesitated for a moment and finally nodded in agreement.
The reason he agreed to Zhou Qinshu was not because of the other party's sincere words, but because the other party was hiding a bank card in his hand.
Li Chenqiu liked this kind of pragmatic person.
"Thank you, thank you!" Zhou Qinshu said excitedly with his hands clasped together, then turned his attention to Xiang Nanzhi.
Li Chenqiu said gently, "I have some things to deal with here, let's talk later, okay?"
"Okay." Xiang Nanzhi nodded in agreement.
A trace of surprise flashed in Li Chenqiu's eyes, he didn't expect Xiang Nanzhi to agree so readily.
Just when Li Chenqiu thought the other party would go down, Xiang Nanzhi moved his butt back and patted the seat next to him: "Come up!"
Li Chenqiu: "..."
After Zhou Qinshu came up, Li Chenqiu reached out and closed the curtains: "Speak, what's the matter?"
Zhou Qinshu looked at Xiang Nanzhi with some embarrassment: "This..."
"You say it, I won't eavesdrop." Xiang Nanzhi covered her ears and looked out the car window.
"He's my friend, don't mind him." Li Chenqiu waved his hand, indicating that he didn't need to care.
Zhou Qinshu nodded: "Big Brother Li, hello, I'm looking for you to make a deal."
"Deal?" A trace of curiosity flashed in Li Chenqiu's eyes: "What deal?"
"It's about the joint assessment of the two academies. If possible, I hope you can help me within the rules. Joining the Star Plucking Academy is very important to me.
If I don't pass the assessment, with my parents' personalities, they will kill me..."
When he mentioned the words "parents", Zhou Qinshu subconsciously shrank his neck.
"The assessment emphasizes fairness and justice, this won't do!" Li Chenqiu righteously refused.
Zhou Qinshu hurriedly explained, "Brother, I'm not asking you to help me cheat, I just want you to give me a hand within the rules. If there's no chance, then forget it."
Li Chenqiu shook his head: "This is unfair to others, I can't do such a thing."
Zhou Qinshu's face turned pale.
This is different from what the information said, wasn't it said that Li Chenqiu is a very money-loving person?
Is he really that principled?
Zhou Qinshu said with a difficult expression: "Brother, can't you be more flexible? The Star Plucking Academy is really, really important to me!"
Li Chenqiu supported his forehead with his hand, making a tangled and embarrassed look, as if he was struggling in his heart.
Of course, this was all a facade, wouldn't it be stupid not to make money when you have the chance?
"Surname Zhou, rich, and so concerned about the Star Plucking Academy, you wouldn't be from the Zhou Consortium, would you?" Xiang Nanzhi stretched her head next to Zhou Qinshu.
"You..." Zhou Qinshu swallowed: "I, I... how could I be from the Zhou Consortium? People from those big consortiums all live in District Three, who would be idle enough to run to District One."
"Hey, you know quite a lot!" Xiang Nanzhi opened her mouth slightly, looking at Zhou Qinshu in surprise.
Li Chenqiu looked at Xiang Nanzhi in confusion: "District?"
"Cities 1 to 100 are District One, cities 101 to 200 are District Two, cities 201 to 300 are District Three, District Four is under development, understand?" Xiang Nanzhi explained.
"This assessment is conducted by district, we are District One, those people from the consortiums are all in District Three." Zhou Qinshu added.
"Understood." Li Chenqiu nodded.
Zhou Qinshu clasped his hands together, begging: "Brother, is it really not possible? I can give you a lot of money, you just need to give me a hand in the assessment."
Xiang Nanzhi patted Zhou Qinshu's shoulder: "To put it mildly, this matter is about helping each other, to put it seriously, it's about deceiving teachers, cutting off other people's paths, destroying the rules, despising Star Plucking, and provoking the entire Federation!
If this matter is found out, do you know how serious the consequences will be? How much money are you going to pay Li Chenqiu to help you bear this responsibility?"
"Ah... is it that serious?" Zhou Qinshu's pupils shook, and his fair face became even paler.
"You think the academy assessment is child's play? These are all to select elites for the Federation, your behavior is destroying the foundation of the Federation. If discovered, Li Chenqiu will definitely be held responsible, how much money do you think is enough?"
Xiang Nanzhi added fuel to the fire.
Zhou Qinshu's forehead oozed fine sweat, and his hands were tightly clenched together.
He didn't expect the impact of this matter to be so great!
The air fell silent.
After a while, Zhou Qinshu seemed to have made some kind of determination, leaned over, and whispered: "How about, 500 million Federation coins?"
"500 million?"
Li Chenqiu's eyes suddenly lit up, just as he was about to agree, Xiang Nanzhi, who was sitting opposite him, shook her head.
In an instant, Li Chenqiu's expression changed drastically, and he half-fisted his hand in front of his mouth.
Seeing this change, Zhou Qinshu's relaxed heart was raised again: "Brother, what's wrong, is there any dissatisfaction?"
Li Chenqiu lowered his voice: "The impact of this matter is too great, once exposed, the consequences will be unimaginable!"
Zhou Qinshu asked nervously: "Then... then are you going to refuse?"
"The difficulty is too great." Li Chenqiu raised his head: "The price must be raised!"
