Refusing a Reward, Receiving a Villa

Refusing a Reward, Receiving a Villa

Getting Lin Qingyue's autograph was already the best reward Lin Yuan could ask for.

He could give it to his mother as a birthday present soon.

She would definitely be thrilled.

Lin Qingyue's manager arrived late.

She was a young woman. The moment she arrived, she questioned them repeatedly and visibly relaxed after confirming that Qingyue was unhurt, merely frightened.

"Thank you for saving Qingyue," she said 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 your reward."

One hundred thousand!

Lin Yuan looked at the check, feeling tempted.

That was enough money to improve his life considerably.

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

This time, Lin Yuan frowned.

Did she take him for someone who expected repayment?

At that moment, Lin Qingyue walked over as well. "Just take it. It's repayment for saving my life."

[Your current situation has been detected. Please make your choice!]

Choice 1: Accept the two-hundred-thousand check as repayment. Reward: the title "Good Samaritan."

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

Holy shit! A villa worth fifty million!

Lin Yuan's breathing quickened. Was there even a choice to make?

Of course he chose option two.

"Sorry, but saving people is instinctive for me. I didn't do it for some so-called reward. Take your money back."

Lin Yuan spoke righteously, not even sparing the two hundred thousand in checks another glance.

As though they were nothing more than two pieces of scrap paper.

Lin Qingyue's manager was stunned. Had she judged him wrong? Did someone really not want that much compensation?

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

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

He waved and turned to leave without the slightest hesitation.

"Wait!"

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

He turned around.

Lin Qingyue jogged over, panting. "I'm sorry. My manager was 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 without any hesitation.

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

"Thanks. I'll definitely go!"

"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 add him.

Lin Yuan gladly agreed.

After they added each other, 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 that way. When he didn't take it, I thought he felt it was too little. I never expected..."

Lin Qingyue's manager walked over, blaming herself.

Lin Qingyue shook her head without saying anything.

"Didn't you say you were saving those three Diamond-tier concert tickets?" the manager asked.

"I was saving them for someone worthy of receiving 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.

As soon as he reached the entrance, the 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, and he personally escorted Lin Yuan all the way to his villa.

The location was excellent, with a view of the city's riverside scenery.

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

When he opened the door to his own villa, Lin Yuan felt as though he had opened the door to a new world.

A luxurious villa that could only be seen on television now stood before him in reality.

All of this was his personal property!

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

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

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

The moment he turned on his phone, it was full of 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 hadn't shown up!"

"Reply to me already! I'm worried sick."

"Lin Yuan, did you run off with my money? Boohoo, 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."
