Quick Transmigration: Survive to the End

Chapter 704 World 239

[People at the level of the leader do exist, but they are few and far between.]

Sister Li sent a voice message.

[After all, most of us are just ordinary people born and raised by our parents, unlike those with other bloodlines.]

In both sentences, Sister Li emphasized the word "person".

Shen Ruyin realized, this means there are also those who are not purely human.

There aren't many humans who are this good-looking, but there are many who are not purebred, or rather, who are not human at all.

Shen Ruyin replied with an expectant emoji and then turned on her computer.

Since I can't sleep anyway, I might as well study first.

Although Boss Ke has become a colleague, he still has to earn his salary; Shen Ruyin is not going to turn down money.

Especially money that comes from legitimate sources and can be easily obtained.

When Shen Ruyin was learning something, she was completely focused and didn't realize it was already noon until her mother came to call her for lunch.

On a summer afternoon, the best thing to do is to take a nap. No matter how hot it is outside, the air conditioning inside can save your life.

Shen Ruyin had just closed her eyes when her phone vibrated twice.

Shen Ruyin originally didn't intend to pay attention, but the phone suddenly rang.

Our carefree, fleeting years have vanished...

She reached for her phone on the bedside table, picked it up, and saw the caller ID. Her mind cleared up a bit.

She answered the phone, her eyes clear, but her voice sounded very tired.

"Hello, I don't need a card, I don't need a package deal, and I don't need a loan, thank you."

"Yinyin, it's me," Zhao Manrou's cautious voice came through the phone. "Are you resting? Did I disturb you?"

"Huh? Xiaoman," Shen Ruyin said, as if she had just realized what was happening, her tone somewhat indifferent, "Why did you suddenly call me?"

Zhao Manrou seemed oblivious to the inappropriateness in her words: "Yinyin, thank you and your uncle and aunt."

“My mom and I just came back and saw my dad resting at home. We asked him a few questions and found out that he almost had an accident today.”

Zhao Manrou's voice carried a hint of lingering fear, but Shen Ruyin didn't seem to care.

My father almost got into an accident, and suddenly he became afraid?

Could the heavy yin energy and poor condition on Zhao's father's body have formed in a short time?

Given the heavy yin energy surrounding Zhao's father, Shen Ruyin didn't even need to see it with her own eyes to know what Zhao's mother, who had always been by Zhao Manrou's side, was like; she could guess without even seeing her.

With her parents present, Zhao Manrou pretended to be blind.

If it's not that I don't want to watch it, what else could it be?

Shen Ruyin didn't think that Zhao Manrou was calling just to express her gratitude.

"It's not that serious, Uncle Zhao is just too tired."

"He was very safety conscious; he parked the car on the side of the road beforehand and turned on his hazard lights before falling asleep."

“If my dad hadn’t recognized your car and license plate, we probably wouldn’t have stopped to look.”

"Anyway, thank you all," Zhao Manrou said softly. "By the way, Yinyin, didn't you go to Montenegro a few days ago? Why did you go there again yesterday? I didn't see you at the guesthouse."

See, the real purpose has become clear.

“We didn’t go to the guesthouse,” Shen Ruyin said, deliberately yawning. “Although it’s nice, we’ve already stayed there, so what’s the point of going back?”

"To make it easier for my dad to get to work today, we stayed at a hotel located on the outskirts."

"Oh," Zhao Manrou responded, "What can we do in the outer areas?"

“It’s cool here,” Shen Ruyin said. “Yesterday, we went up the mountain after my dad got off work and had dinner.”

"Since we've gotten so caught up in the conversation, let's just go to Montenegro for a night and experience the coolness without air conditioning."

"We originally brought a tent, but we couldn't find a suitable place to camp, so we had to spend money to stay in a hotel."

“Oh, I see,” Zhao Manrou said. “I was wondering why you didn’t come to visit me after you went to Black Mountain.”

"What do you want?" Shen Ruyin retorted directly, "We're just traveling with our families, of course we want to be with them."

“That’s true,” Zhao Manrou said casually. “Yinyin, are you free this afternoon? We haven’t seen each other for many days. Let’s find a place to get together.”

“I’ve been recommended a new restaurant, we can go there for dinner.”

Shen Ruyin remained silent for a moment, until Zhao Manrou couldn't help but call her name again before she spoke.

"I'm sorry, Xiaoman, I have something to do this afternoon."

"Oh, I see," Zhao Manrou said with some regret. "Then let's go another day. When are you free?"

“I haven’t had any free time lately,” Shen Ruyin said bluntly. “Xiaoman, I probably won’t be able to go out with you.”

"Don't use going out with me as an excuse to tell your uncle and aunt in the future."

"I don't want to get a call from my aunt out of the blue when I'm at home, asking when I'll be back from our outing, or why I can't get through to her."

"Xiaoman, your goose always replies quickly just when you want to reply to a message, and you can only get through to the phone when you want to answer it."

“Yinyin,” Zhao Manrou said, somewhat flustered, “I’m not…”

"What is it?" Shen Ruyin didn't really want to hear it. "It's not that after I received Auntie's call, I tried to contact you many times, but I could never get through to you."

"Or did you not use me as an excuse in front of your aunt and uncle, but instead disappeared without a trace?"

"I'm sorry, Xiaoman, I'm still very angry. Let's not contact each other for a while."

"Now, I feel disgusted whenever I see your calls or messages."

"Oh," Zhao Manrou's voice was full of grievance, sounding like she was about to cry.

In the past, Shen Ruyin would have gently asked her what was wrong, whether something had happened, and they would work together to find a solution.

But now, Shen Ruyin chooses to coldly hang up the phone.

Shen Ruyin tossed her phone onto the bed, unable to sleep. Just then, she finished her water glass and went out to get more.

"Mom, you turned the TV off. What are you watching?" Shen Ruyin asked, sounding a bit confused. "Are you watching a silent film?"

Mrs. Shen quickly turned up her voice: "I accidentally pressed it just now."

Shen Ruyin said helplessly, "Mom, you might as well just say you were listening to me on the phone."

Ms. Shen was a little embarrassed: "I was watching TV when I heard your voice suddenly get louder, and you sounded a bit angry, so I turned off the sound. I didn't mean to eavesdrop on your phone call."

After saying that, Shen's mother didn't inquire about the current relationship between Shen Ruyin and Zhao Manrou, but instead invited her to sit next to her.

"Yinyin, listen to this song, the singer sings it quite well."

“I’ve heard her sing before, but I never realized she sang so well.”
