I Must Have Been Blinded by Money

Everyone who gathered around was dumbfounded!

Their eyes were practically bloodshot with envy!

Maybe... we should set up a stall tomorrow, too!

Zhong Yingxue stood quietly beside Jiang Nan!

Xia Yao was behind Jiang Nan, giving him an Invincible Big Throat Lock...

The pose was certainly eye-catching, but the girl didn't care one bit!

Xia Yao blinked and said in a sweet, coquettish voice, "Come on over and take a look, folks! The prices are dirt cheap!"

Jiang Nan shivered at the sound...

A tall, wild Goddess like her, speaking in such a sweet voice...

Even silently reciting the Vajra Mantra couldn't save him from that!

"Why are you shivering?"

"N-nothing... It's cold out!"

[Resentment Points from Xia Yao +333!]

In the middle of summer, and you're messing with me?

Zhong Yingxue felt a little embarrassed, but she joined in to help Jiang Nan sell his goods.

And that was how this scene came about.

Two beautiful women were doing their best to sell Jiang Nan's goods.

He sat motionless on a little stool like a giant Buddha.

Frozen stiff!

Tell me, aren't you moved?

I wouldn't dare move... I wouldn't dare!

The onlookers instantly went wild, rushing to buy things!

Not for anything else—just for the chance to get a close look at these two beautiful women!

Worth every penny!

A big guy rushed over. "Nobody move! Underwear's ten yuan for two pairs, right? Give me ten pounds!"

"Holy crap! You sell underwear by the pound?"

"Ten pounds? You'll be dead before you can wear all that! Gonna pass the rest down as an heirloom?"

"Leave some for us!"

Jiang Nan said, "Nobody hold my big brother back! I'll weigh out ten pounds of underwear right now! Nothing wrong with heirloom underwear! Our bottled water is an heirloom, too!"

[Resentment Points from Wang Tie +285!]

[Resentment Points from Liu Quan +666!]

[Resentment Points from Zhong Yingxue +111!]

In less than ten minutes, everything was gone. No one had touched the last nine bottles of Farmer's Three Fists...

Jiang Nan was filled with emotion.

I'd shouted myself hoarse for ages and got nowhere!

Just look at these two girls.

They were born to run a street stall!

Pretty really could put food on the table...

He packed up the stall and tossed all the odds and ends into Other Dimension Space, even the 28-inch Bicycle.

"All right! Let's go eat. My treat today!"

Jiang Nan was in a great mood!

This time, Xia Yao was the one who froze. She stared at him in disbelief. "You have a Space ability?"

Even Zhong Yingxue was stunned. Space ability?

There were fewer than ten Space ability users in the whole world!

Jiang Nan shrugged. "What else?"

"You have a Space ability, and you're out here running a street stall?" Xia Yao's voice rose three whole pitches.

"What's wrong with that? You think delivering packages would suit me better...?"

Xia Yao fell silent...

[Resentment Points from Xia Yao +666!]

"Aw, I'm just teasing. I have the lowest-grade talent, so I cultivate slowly!"

"So what if I have a Space ability? It's not like I can go rob a bank. I still have to make a living!"

Xia Yao clearly hadn't heard a word. She was already thinking something over.

Zhong Yingxue reached out and patted his bald head, comforting him. "It's okay. You'll have your big sister from now on!"

The three of them made their way to the entrance of the night market. When Jiang Nan saw the Mercedes-Benz G-Class, his mind went blank.

Was Xia Yao really that rich? She was still in high school and already driving a G-Class?

Jiang Nan sat in the front passenger seat, Zhong Yingxue sat in the back, and he kept staring at Xia Yao as she drove.

Xia Yao started to feel uneasy under his gaze. "What are you looking at? I'm eighteen, and I have a license..."

Jiang Nan rubbed his eyes. "I think I'm nearsighted. I must have been blinded by money!"

[Resentment Points from Xia Yao +666!]

"You little rascal!"

"What do you want to eat?"

"Grilled skewers! Let's hit up a barbecue stand!"

"What about you, Xiao Xue?"

"I'll go with Jiang Nan!"

The big V8 engine roared to life. The passersby at the night market were green with envy. What the hell kind of background did you have, setting up a street stall like that?

You were just stealing everyone else's business!

What Jiang Nan didn't know was that the video of him splitting a brick with his head had been shared on Weibo by an enthusiastic netizen!

It was going viral and had already surpassed the previous video!

Xiamen Street Barbecue Stand.

"Grilled kidneys, soy-sauce-glazed beef tendons, lean beef, and three bottles of fresh-pressed juice..."

"Nothing spicy. My sister doesn't like spicy food!"

Zhong Yingxue smiled. "You remembered!"

"I have a great memory!"

Xia Yao watched Jiang Nan and Zhong Yingxue acting all sweet together and pouted.

[Resentment Points from Xia Yao +3 +3 +3...]

Just as I thought!

There was definitely something up with Xia Yao!

I'd better keep an eye on her!

Jiang Nan asked, "Sis, where are you going to school now?"

"Songjiang Lingwu High School. Xia Yao's in my class! We're both seniors..."

Jiang Nan was taken aback. "Songjiang Lingwu? Isn't the competition pretty fierce over there?"

Songjiang Lingwu was the only high school in River City made up entirely of Spirit Warriors. It had top-notch facilities and an excellent teaching staff!

Every year, it placed among the top three in the provincial high school league!

Xia Yao chuckled. "Competition? Not a problem!"

"Your big sister is a Bronze Nine-Star Fire Element Archmage. Her damage output is insane! And I'm a Bronze Seven-Star Beast Transformation Melee fighter! We're unstoppable!"

"If it weren't for that bastard Luo, I..."

"Xiao Yao, don't," Zhong Yingxue said with a frown.

Xia Yao reluctantly shut her mouth, but she still couldn't help asking, "Can't the team bring Jiang Nan on?"

"He has a Space ability! He'd be unbeatable at crowd control!"

Zhong Yingxue shook her head. "I'll handle my own problems."

"How are you supposed to handle it? That bastard drugged you! What would you have done if I hadn't been there?"

"Xiao Yao!"

Xia Yao gritted her teeth in anger, but could only let it go and bury herself in her skewers!

Jiang Nan didn't say anything about it. Instead, he said, "My sister's just a bit stubborn. Come on, let's eat!"

"Sister Xia Yao, how about adding me as a friend?"

Jiang Nan held out his QR code.

He gave her a meaningful look.

Xia Yao looked a little confused, but added him anyway.

Then Jiang Nan secretly sent her a message.

"Sister Xia Yao, tell me more when we get back!"

Xia Yao's anger vanished in an instant!

Her long leg brushed lightly against Jiang Nan's knee beneath the table.

She gave him a look that said, That's more like it.

"Here, I'll add you too, sis. It'll make it easier to keep in touch!"

"Big sis, has the Zhong Family treated you well?"

Zhong Yingxue smiled. "My parents are pretty nice. Old Master Zhong can be a little strict, but he only wants what's best for me..."

"What about you? How have you been getting by all these years?"

Jiang Nan scratched his head. "Me? Same as always, I guess!"

"I moved out of the orphanage when I was sixteen and rented a place. I grilled skewers and sold grilled cold noodles outside the university town. I worked as a waiter, too. In the end, I figured running a street stall was the best way to make money!"

"I did fine at Jiangcheng No. 1 High School..."

At those words, neither girl could look at anyone else.

He was only sixteen, still so young, studying while doing odd jobs to support himself. How hard must that have been?

But he brushed over all his hardships in a single sentence, his smile still bright as ever!
