Chapter 24

When the people in the room had all left, only she and Ji Fantian were remaining, Lin Zaozao felt awkward on her own initiative.

Although she had resolved a major matter in life after struggling for a whole night, she had also collapsed Ji Fantian's bed.

Now, she must not continue staying here. It would also save Ji Fantian from getting angry and slapping her again.

She also didn't know where this guy who looked weak and thin like a monkey got such great strength to slap her against the wall with one strike.

"Fantian~" 𝖋𝔯𝔢𝔢𝖜𝖊𝖇𝖓𝔬𝔳𝖊𝔩.𝖈𝖔𝖒

"Keep your tongue straight and speak properly," Ji Fantian said coldly.

"You see, it's late now. Please rest well. I won't disturb you. I wish you a good dream tonight~"

"With the collapsed bed, what good dream do you think I can have tonight?" Ji Fantian sneered.

"If you dislike the collapsed bed without a place to sleep, why don't you come to my room with me? We can sleep on the floor mats together. Hugging each other, we can also stay a little warmer. Don't you think so?"

"Get lost!"

"Alright, I'll get lost briskly. Good night, sir."

After speaking, Lin Zaozao smiled obsequiously at Ji Fantian. Not daring to look at his expression, she shrank her body and ran towards her own room quickly.

Returning to her room, Lin Zaozao looked at her own collapsed bedding and couldn't help sighing.

Resigned, she spread the broken door plank on the floor and pieced them together. Then she spread the tattered quilt on top and lay straight on it.

It would have to do for one night! After she struck it rich tomorrow, she must buy a bed that won't collapse.

If it really didn't work, she would have someone build her a bed with stacked stones. She just couldn't believe that with her weight, she could still collapse a stone bed.

Thinking randomly, Lin Zaozao, who had struggled wittedly for a whole night, soon entered sweet dreams.

When the room resounded with snores again, a dark shadow flashed into Lin Zaozao's side.

Looking at the sprawled Lin Zaozao sleeping on the floor mat, the shadow's hand was about to be placed on Lin Zaozao's face but was sharply pulled back.

So he left a black bag by Lin Zaozao's hand before flashing away from her room again.

The next day, before it was light, Lin Zaozao moved her somewhat stiff body and got up lazily from the floor mat, half-opening her eyes.

She still had things to do today and couldn't sleep in.

When Lin Zaozao was about to rub her eyes, she felt a bag by her hand.

Looking it over, it was a pure black bag made of fine fabric, only with two golden beads strung on the drawstring.

Lin Zaozao examined those two beads carefully. They seemed to be made of gold. To verify her guess, Lin Zaozao bit them with her teeth.

Seeing the tooth marks left behind, Lin Zaozao's eyes instantly widened. They really were made of gold!

Since the beads on the bag were made of gold, what about inside the bag! After all, weighing it, she felt the weight was not light!

Somewhat excitedly opening the bag to look, the golden brilliance inside nearly blinded her dog eyes.

Oh my! So much gold, at least tens of taels! This was a midnight windfall, the God of Wealth had descended beside her.

Just last night she was wondering where to get the first pot of gold after her transmigration. But she didn't expect the first pot of gold to deliver itself to her door.

But who had put this bag of gold by her hand? Lin Zaozao thought hard but felt she really didn't know anything about her five husbands.

If someone among her five husbands was most likely to give her gold, except Gu Shan, it should be no one else.

But thinking of Gu Shan who was also paralyzed and whose wheelchair was broken to that extent, he probably didn't have the ability to get a new one either. So the person who gave her the gold probably wasn't him!

Although she was randomly guessing the source of the gold in her heart, afraid to bring disaster upon herself, her hands very honestly stuffed the gold into her clothes.

Good heavens, she was going to strike it rich!

For a time, Lin Zaozao felt her transmigration life had new prospects again and wasn't so miserable.

She was such a simple girl. Gaining benefits, her heart felt wonderful. But once encountering any difficulty, she would immediately shrink her head into her turtle shell.

After tidying up her clothes, when Lin Zaozao was about to go out with the money bag, she felt that going out with such a huge sum might get robbed by thieves halfway.

But looking at her empty room, at a glance, there really was no place that could hide things!

But when she saw the rat hole in the corner, her eyes instantly revealed a shiny gleam.

Wasn't this a good place to hide things delivered right before her eyes?

Lin Zaozao took out the smallest gold piece from the bag, then tightened the bag opening. She tore off a piece of cloth from her tattered clothes and tightly wrapped up the bag, stuffing it into the rat hole. Then she gouged out a mud chunk from the corner to plug it in too.

After completing all preparations, Lin Zaozao finally wiped the sweat off her head satisfactorily and stood up.

But when she had just turned and taken a few steps, she felt somewhat uneasy again. What if the rats took her gold away? Then wouldn't this windfall from heaven be gone again?

So Lin Zaozao squatted on the ground and took out the money bag from the rat hole again. She divided it into four parts and dug four holes separately in the ground of the room, burying the gold scattered.

Only after completing everything satisfactorily did Lin Zaozao finally walk out.

Alright! From now on, she was going to start a new life.

Today she was going to use the gold to buy food, drinks, and clothes. Of course, if she could buy something breathing that could warm the bed, that wouldn't be bad!

But when she had just reached the courtyard entrance, she suddenly turned and walked towards Gu Shan's door.

Lightly knocking, Lin Zaozao softly said, "Gu Shan, are you up?"

"I'm up."

"Can I come in then?"

"Come in."

Hearing Gu Shan's somewhat cold voice, Lin Zaozao gently pushed open the door and entered Gu Shan's room.

Roughly scanning Gu Shan's room, compared to her crude room, Gu Shan's room appeared even cooler.

Besides Gu Shan's wooden wheelchair and a bed, the room had nothing else.

It was really miserably uncomfortable.

So the cake he had given her last time must have been what he was reluctant to eat, deliberately leaving it for her!

Sitting sideways on the bed, Gu Shan saw that ever since Lin Zaozao had pushed open the door, her expression had become increasingly upset.

What was she upset about?

Was she upset for his current condition? While Gu Shan was secretly speculating, Lin Zaozao had already withdrawn the upset on her face and walked to Gu Shan's bedside.

She had wanted to sit by Gu Shan's bed originally, but thinking of her collapsed bed, her buttocks reflexively kept away from the bedside.

Gu Shan's room was empty enough already without anything else. She couldn't collapse his only bed too.
