Refusing Repayment, Rewarded with a Villa

Being able to get Lin Qingyue's personal autograph was already the best reward Lin Yuan could ask for.

He could use it as a birthday gift for his mother soon.

She would definitely be very happy.

Lin Qingyue's manager arrived late.

She was a young woman. The moment she arrived, she asked all sorts of questions. After confirming that Qingyue was unharmed and had only been frightened, she visibly relaxed.

"Thank you for saving Qingyue," she said gratefully to Lin Yuan.

Lin Yuan smiled. "It was nothing."

The manager took out a check from her bag and handed it to him. "This check for one hundred thousand is to repay you."

One hundred thousand!

Lin Yuan looked at the check, tempted.

That much money would be enough to improve his life considerably.

"What, is it too little?" The manager frowned and took out another check. "Then is two hundred thousand enough?"

This time, Lin Yuan frowned.

Did she take him for someone demanding repayment?

At that moment, Lin Qingyue walked over as well. "Just accept it. This is repayment for saving my life."

[The host's current situation has been detected. Please make your choice!]

Choice 1: Accept the repayment check for two hundred thousand. Reward: the "Righteous Hero" title.

Choice 2: Refuse the check for two hundred thousand. Reward: a Riverside Villas villa worth fifty million!

Holy crap! A villa worth fifty million!

Lin Yuan's breathing quickened. Was there even a need to choose?

Of course he chose option two.

"Sorry, I saved you on instinct, not for some so-called reward. Take the money back."

Lin Yuan spoke righteously, not even glancing at the two hundred thousand in checks again.

As though they were merely two pieces of scrap paper.

Lin Qingyue's manager was stunned. Had she misjudged him? Was there really someone who would turn down such a large reward?

"Sister Qingyue, if there's nothing else, I'll be going now. Bye!"

Seeing that it was getting late and nearly midnight, Lin Yuan figured it was time to head back.

He waved, turned around, and left without the slightest hesitation.

"Wait!"

Just as Lin Yuan was about to walk out through the gate, an urgent voice came from behind him.

He turned around.

Lin Qingyue jogged over, panting. "I'm sorry. My manager was in the wrong."

"Since you won't take the money, you have to accept these three tickets to my concert!"

As she spoke, she stuffed three tickets into Lin Yuan's hand.

This time, Lin Yuan did not refuse.

He accepted them with a clear conscience.

"You saved me. This is the only way I can think of to repay you."

"Thank you. I'll definitely go watch it!"

"Okay, then I'll treat you to a meal when the time comes. Oh, and let's add each other as friends!"

Lin Qingyue took the initiative to ask to add him as a friend.

Lin Yuan readily agreed.

After they added each other as friends, Lin Yuan left.

"Qingyue, I failed in my duty. I shouldn't have let you come out alone and nearly get into trouble."

"I meant well just now. I wanted to repay the person who saved you this way. When he didn't take it, I thought it wasn't enough. I never expected..."

Lin Qingyue's manager walked over, speaking self-reproachfully.

Lin Qingyue shook her head without saying anything.

"Didn't you say you wanted to keep those three diamond-tier concert tickets?" the manager asked.

"I kept them to give to someone worthy of them." Lin Qingyue smiled.

It was already too late, and he could no longer get into the school. Thinking of the villa he now owned, Lin Yuan decided to go take a look.

He took a taxi to Riverside Villas.

When he reached the entrance, the security guard on duty stopped him.

"I'm going home."

Lin Yuan took out the villa keys issued by the system, along with the property deed.

The guard's attitude immediately changed completely, and he personally escorted Lin Yuan all the way to his villa.

The location was excellent, with a view of the river running through the city.

There was no bustling traffic nearby, making the area seem especially quiet.

Opening the door to his own villa felt like opening the door to a whole new world.

The luxurious villa that could only be seen on television was now truly right before his eyes.

All of this was his personal property!

Luxurious leather sofas, crystal chandeliers, solid wood furniture... every kind of furnishing was available.

Lin Yuan lay comfortably on the soft bed, finding it hard to believe that he actually owned a villa.

He slept incredibly comfortably that night, so comfortably that he was late for school.

The moment he turned on his phone, it was filled with messages from Gu Lianyin.

"Lin Yuan, why haven't you come to class yet? Are you sick?"

"Where the hell did you go, Lin Yuan? I thought you'd asked the teacher for leave, but the teacher asked me why you weren't here!"

"Hurry up and reply to me! I'm worried sick."

"Lin Yuan, did you run off with my money? Wuwuwu, that's all the money I have! (crying emoji)"

Lin Yuan did not know whether to laugh or cry, and quickly replied to her.

"I overslept. Sorry."
