18: Chapter 18 The System and Hidden Scales
[Give me the Orphanage's bank account number.] Gao Ying sent a private message to Zhou Zhou.
Seeing this message, Zhou Zhou's heart thumped. Was this big shot asking for the account number to make a donation?
Thinking of her generosity, Zhou Zhou sent the account number to her via private message.
"Guibao, transfer all the remaining money into this card."
[Okay, Sister.]
As soon as the money was transferred into the account, an upgrade panel appeared for the system.
[Sister, I need five hours to upgrade. During the system upgrade phase, Sister can still use the money in the system, so don't worry.]
Fugui went off to upgrade after finishing its sentence.
On Zhou Zhou's end, he also received a call from the Director: "Xiao Zhou, the Orphanage just received a sum of forty million. Did you transfer this money?
Did you do something illegal? Xiao Zhou, you should take the money back quickly."
"Director Mom, I didn't transfer this money. It was a kind-hearted person, and the money's source is clean. You can use it with peace of mind."
Zhou Zhou was also startled when he heard the Director say forty million. He thought this rich lady would only donate a million or so at most.
With this money, the Orphanage could be properly renovated, air conditioning could be installed, and the meals would improve. The children would live much more comfortably.
"Is what you're saying true? You're not doing something illegal behind our backs?" Director Mom asked again, uncertain.
"Mom, I'm a child raised by you all. Of course I wouldn't do anything illegal. I was just lucky today and met a kind person," Zhou Zhou explained.
"That... it's just... she won't do anything to you, right?" Director Mom asked with some concern.
"Not for now. She just really likes listening to me sing."
"Donating so much money just because she likes listening to you sing? I just can't feel at ease about this.
What if she asks you to accompany her? What should we do then?
No, I can't use your whole life as a gamble." Director Mom was still worried.
Zhou Zhou was the most promising child from their Orphanage. If it weren't for the Orphanage, his life would definitely be better.
"Mom, don't worry yet. Wait until I communicate with this kind person before you refuse, okay?" Zhou Zhou knew she meant well.
But if the Orphanage wasn't renovated soon, it wouldn't be able to stay open. What would happen to those children then?
After hanging up, Zhou Zhou sent a private message to Gao Ying, giving her his WeChat ID.
Gao Ying had already returned to Xia Yang's livestream room.
Today's emotion points task was already completed and even exceeded. The system rewards had been placed in her backpack.
Feeling light without any tasks, she planned to play for another half hour before resting.
Seeing the WeChat ID sent by Zhou Zhou, she thought about it and added him.
[Rich Sister, Director Mom just called me and said you donated forty million. Thank you so much.]
[You're welcome. I do charity work anyway.]
Zhou Zhou saw her message, took a screenshot, and sent it to the Director.
[It looks like we really met a kind person. Help Mom thank this kind person solemnly.
I don't dare to disturb her rashly, for fear of making her unhappy.]
Seeing the message, Director Mom finally felt relieved.
[Okay, Mom.]
[Rich Sister, Director Mom asked me to thank you solemnly. Because of this funding, the Orphanage will be able to stay open.
Thank you so much. If there's anything I can help with, please don't hesitate to ask.
Although I don't have much ability, I should at least show my sincerity, right?]
[Sure.]
*Knock knock*
At that moment, there was a knock on the door.
"Come in."
"Your Highness, you must be tired after wandering around all day. Let me give you a massage." Yin Lin had changed into casual home clothes and came to the bedside to look at her.
"Wow! You know how to give massages? Then I'll trouble you." With a handsome guy's service, Gao Ying's eyes lit up.
Yin Lin untied her hair and began massaging from her head.
Under Yin Lin's massage, Gao Ying's muscles gradually relaxed, and drowsiness came knocking. She fell asleep in no time.
Yin Lin didn't leave when he saw her fall asleep; he continued the massage.
Once he was sure Gao Ying had entered deep sleep, he picked her up in a princess carry, carefully placed her on the bed, helped her cover up with the quilt, and just sat by the bed watching her sleeping face.
He didn't know how long he had been sitting there when Fugui spoke up.
[What are you doing sitting by Sister's bed so late? Are you trying to scare me to death?]
[Shut up. Don't wake Her Highness.]
Yin Lin communicated with it using brain waves.
[You think I'm stupid? I'll definitely block Sister out when communicating with you.] Fugui said irritably.
[You were intercepted from the main system by us together. Don't forget your duty. If Her Highness is harmed, you won't need to exist either.] Yin Lin warned in a cold tone.
[I know. Sister is also someone I want to protect, it's just that she doesn't have any memories now.
If I just gave her money to spend from the start without making her do any tasks, do you think Sister would keep me around with her personality?]
[As long as you know what you're doing. No matter what reason you use, you must let Her Highness have the best of this world.]
[I know, you don't need to tell me. But do you really not regret turning into a Android to stay by Sister's side?
You should know that while Androids are like people, they are ultimately different. Take reproduction, for example; it's different.]
[I don't regret it. At least this way, I was the first to come to her side.] Yin Lin reached out and gently stroked the cheek of the person on the bed.
[I hope you really don't regret it. Also, others have already begun to appear one after another. You'd better win Sister over before they arrive and strive to be the official husband.]
Yin Lin didn't answer him, but his eyes were full of determination.
Waking up in the morning, Gao Ying was drawn to Yin Lin, who was leaning against the headboard.
The morning light hit his face, making him look even more gentle and elegant like jade, and his face appeared even more handsome under the morning glow.
Waking up early to such a visual strike, Gao Ying only felt her head spinning.
By the time she reacted, she had actually... actually kissed him, and it was on the lips.
Hmm~ it was quite soft, bouncy, and very suitable for kissing.
"Ah! Gao Ying, how can you be such a hooligan? Luckily he hasn't woken up. Hurry and flee the crime scene."
Yin Lin's eyebrows twitched, bringing Gao Ying back to her senses.
She scrambled out of bed in a panic and ran toward the bathroom, despising her behavior just now as she ran.
Hearing the bathroom door close, Yin Lin opened his eyes.
There was no morning grogginess in those eyes, only a flash of surprise and a soft smile.
"It seems Her Highness has no resistance to the 'honey trap'."
Gao Ying forced herself to calm down in the bathroom before coming out.
But as soon as she opened the door, she saw Yin Lin, and her face turned red again against her will.
"Your Highness, why is your face so red? Do you have a fever?
It's all my fault for somehow falling asleep yesterday and not taking good care of Your Highness." Yin Lin looked full of self-reproach and reached out to feel her forehead.
"I'm not sick, it's just a bit hot. You should go back and wash up first." Gao Ying didn't even dare to look him in the eye now.
"It's good that you're okay. I'll turn down the air conditioning for Your Highness, then I'll go back and wash up." Yin Lin didn't continue to tease her.
Fugui watched his entire performance and only gave two words:
[Green Tea]
