Villain: Suppressing the Protagonist and Stealing the Campus Belle from the Start Section 16

To her, thirty thousand was already an astronomical figure, and Ye Feng had earned more than just thirty thousand.

Ye Feng nodded confidently, "Of course, this is my first pot of gold, how could thirty thousand be enough."

"Alright, then how much money do you need? I'll see if I can pay a little less and defer the rest."

"Hmm! How about eighty thousand? Don't you have two hundred and eighty thousand? Pay two hundred thousand first, and the remaining eight thousand will be fine."

"That much?"

"Hehe, what do you think? If you want to make money, you have to invest capital," Ye Feng said with a smile.

"Okay, but you have to tell me the progress of this eighty thousand from now on, so I know what you're doing with this money."

"No problem, but we have to agree on this: you can't interfere with how I do things, you can only listen. You can't tell Su Lin or Lin Xiaowan."

"Ah, you can't even tell Xiao Wan?"

Ye Feng nodded seriously, "No, if you tell them, it won't work. Who knows if they'll try to steal our business."

Ye Feng's idea was simple: let Xia Shiyu watch how he operated. This way, he would be at ease, and Xia Shiyu would also be at ease. Another benefit was that he could keep an eye on Xia Shiyu every day, and the two of them would get together during this time.

By the time Su Lin realized what was happening, Xia Shiyu would already be his girlfriend.

"Xiao Wan and Su Lin aren't like that."

"I'd believe it if you said Lin Xiaowan isn't like that, but as for Su Lin... hehe."

"Xiao Feng, is there some misunderstanding between you and Su Lin?"

"Misunderstanding? What misunderstanding could there be between me and him? You should know very well what kind of person he is in class."

Xia Shiyu fell silent.

Although Su Lin was excellent in all aspects, his reputation in class was not good.

She hadn't expected this to affect Ye Feng's misunderstanding of him.

Xia Shiyu really wanted to say that Su Lin had donated money to her, and a lot of it, but thinking of her promise to Su Lin, she could only remain silent.

"Sigh... then I won't tell them. But we've agreed, you must report the situation to me promptly."

"Okay~!!"

Ye Feng knew that Xia Shiyu had a very strong business sense. He was just benefiting from his rebirth, but Xia Shiyu was different; she was truly talented. Bringing her along now would allow her to awaken her talent early, and his summer vacation plan could proceed smoothly.

He would need Xia Shiyu's help later.

The game updated, the Necklace of Fate's stats exploded.

After discussing with Ye Feng, Xia Shiyu took her bank card to make the payment.

Seeing someone paying for Xia Junming, the nurse instinctively glanced at Xia Shiyu a couple more times.

"Nurse, can my dad start dialysis now?"

The nurse nodded, "Of course, he can start once the payment is made. But I must remind you, it's already late for your dad's dialysis. A kidney transplant is urgent. If you miss the best time, it will be too late to change it then."

"Ah!! How long can it be delayed at most?"

"I can't say for sure, as I'm not a doctor, but it's probably only about a month. It definitely won't work beyond that time."

"Oh~!!"

Ye Feng said confidently from the side, "Don't worry, Xiao Yu. I'll definitely be able to gather the money for you within a month."

Xia Shiyu nodded, but there wasn't much belief in her eyes.

She was like a drowning child right now, wanting to grasp at anything that floated by her.

Seeing this, Ye Feng didn't say anything more. He felt that doing something was better than saying more. When the facts were laid out, there would be no room for doubt.

"Xiao Yu, have you finished paying?"

Xia Shiyu turned around and saw Su Lin and Lin Xiaowan.

Su Lin was holding two fruit baskets, and Lin Xiaowan was holding a bouquet of flowers.

The two of them looked like a handsome couple, making Xia Shiyu a little envious.

"Xiao Wan, I told you not to buy fruit, why did you buy so much?"

"You'll have to ask Su Lin about that. He promised I could pick them, but this guy kept stuffing one in after another, and in the end, we bought two baskets."

"Hehe, thank you, Su Lin."

Su Lin waved his hand, "These are all fruits suitable for uremia. Xiao Yu, get more for Uncle Xia later, preferably in liquid form."

"Mhm, mhm~!!"

"Alright, let's not stand here. Let's go see Uncle Xia first."

"Okay~!!"

Ye Feng was delighted that Xia Shiyu really hadn't told Su Lin and Lin Xiaowan about borrowing money to make money.

Even if your relationship is good, can it be better than childhood sweethearts?

Ye Feng felt that as a reborn person with a trump card in hand, getting thirty thousand was too easy.

The group of four headed directly towards the inpatient department.

Su Lin found Ye Feng's completely confident demeanor rather amusing.

In three days, this guy will be crying.

That evening after school, Su Lin found Chen Yang again and told him to raise the purchase price for the Necklace of Fate to six hundred. He instructed Chen Yang to buy any that were available.

Chen Yang no longer cared about Su Lin's intentions; he just followed Su Lin's instructions.

That same evening, he unexpectedly discovered that other merchants had appeared in the game, and their prices were even higher than his. He was buying them for six hundred each, but Ye Feng was offering seven hundred.

[One Maple Love Letter]: Buying Necklace of Fate server-wide, seven hundred each. Will buy as many as available. Platform transactions, reputation guaranteed.

[One Maple Love Letter]: Buying Necklace of Fate server-wide, seven hundred each. Will buy as many as available. Platform transactions, reputation guaranteed.

[One Maple Love Letter]: Buying Necklace of Fate server-wide, seven hundred each. Will buy as many as available. Platform transactions, reputation guaranteed.

Su Lin was also playing the game at home. Unlike Chen Yang, who had to go to an internet cafe, Su Lin could play from home.

"One Maple Love Letter, Ye Feng really has a sly way of naming things, tsk tsk..."

[Zi Yang Merchant] private message: "Brother Lin, someone is competing with us for business, buying at seven hundred each. Should we raise our price?"

[Shuang Mu Lin] private message: "No need, Yangzi. Let him buy. We'll stick to six hundred. Let him keep buying at seven hundred."

[Zi Yang Merchant] private message: "Brother Lin, you mean we stop buying and let him drive up the price?"

[Shuang Mu Lin] private message: "Exactly. We've already bought enough. We should let others have some soup too."

[Zi Yang Merchant] private message: "Understood, Brother Lin. I get it."

Chen Yang was a bit confused by Su Lin's strategy, but he still chose to act according to Su Lin's wishes.

Meanwhile, Ye Feng's heart was bleeding.

If he hadn't known that the Necklace of Fate would eventually sell for five to six thousand in his past life, he wouldn't have been able to bring himself to buy them at seven hundred each now.

"Stupid Zi Yang Merchant, why couldn't you just buy them at five hundred? You had to drive up the price with me. Now look, I'm not even making any profit."

Because Chen Yang kept raising the price for the Necklace of Fate, the black market merchants in the game keenly sensed a business opportunity.

Although they didn't understand why the Necklace of Fate was increasing in price, it didn't stop them from acquiring them.

So, when Ye Feng logged into the game, others were already starting to buy. He didn't pay much attention because he only knew that the equipment's value had increased significantly, but no one had told him the initial price.

He could tell that most of these merchants were hoarders.

The new map and world bosses were about to be released, so it was inevitable that equipment prices would rise.

Especially when the new map and world bosses first launched, the prices of equipment would skyrocket.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye, and it was time for the [Angel City] version update.

Ye Feng didn't pay much attention to the game update, instead dedicating more time to his studies.

After his rebirth, he found that his memory had significantly improved. He could now firmly remember the knowledge from his books after reading them only three to four times.

This ignited a spark of hope within him.

He felt that perhaps in this life, with some effort, he could get into a good university.

He even dared to fantasize about attending university with Xia Shiyu and Lin Xiaowan.

Therefore, he didn't invest his time and energy into the game.

The version update concluded.

At 8 PM, the first world boss spawned.

Su Lin controlled his character and entered the instance.

His character was just barely capable of fighting world bosses, and his equipment was very ordinary. The only special item was the Necklace of Fate in his necklace slot.
