Chapter 95: An Aloof Bearing!

[1/3]

“Would you like to join the Starry Kindergarten group, where red packets are being sent out?”

...Starry Kindergarten again!

You’re too much!

Baby does not want to join the Starry Kindergarten group right now!

Please connect to the Nora Planet channel...

“Searching nearby groups within five hundred meters that are sending red packets. Beep, beep, beep... please wait... no nearby groups are sending red packets. Search complete...”

Shi Qingqing refused to give up and kept searching.

Still nothing...

Where was the promised pattern? After nine at night, the computer was on and the game was logged in...

The past two nights she had connected to Nora Star frequency. Why couldn’t she connect tonight?

Could it be related to battery power?

Tonight the battery was down to just eight percent, and it had not recharged automatically either.

Thinking about how every time she snatched a prop red packet, the battery dropped terrifyingly fast, she wondered if the low power was the reason she could no longer connect.

Fine, then. Back to the old problem.

How was she supposed to charge the phone?

Damn it, how troublesome. Tomorrow she would go to the electronics mall and ask one of the veteran repairmen to take a look.

[2/3]

Even a good phone was useless if it was always out of power.

Just then, a notification chimed in the computer’s background, like the alert sound from a shopping app.

Someone had sent her a private message.

Shi Qingqing switched out of the game and, sure enough, someone had messaged her.

Sky, Memory: Are the front-row tickets for King Shen’s concert that you have listed in your shop real?

Ace Power-Leveling Pro: Of course they’re real!

These past few days, people had kept leaving her messages asking whether the ticket was genuine.

From a buyer’s perspective, it was understandable to be suspicious.

Your shop was clearly for game power-leveling, and then you suddenly listed an outrageously expensive concert ticket. Anyone would find that strange.

Sky, Memory: Do you accept in-person transactions? After all, eight thousand yuan isn’t cheap. If it’s fake...

Ace Power-Leveling Pro: Sure. In the capital, within the Fifth Ring on Sunny Avenue, I accept in-person transactions. Tomorrow only.

Sky, Memory: All right, it’s settled. Tomorrow at noon...

Then the other party sent an address.

Shi Qingqing could get there with two transfers, a journey of one or two hours, so it was not too far.

What mattered most was that there was a large electronics mall nearby, where she could have her phone repaired on the side.

So Shi Qingqing agreed.

Sky, Memory: Are you a boy or a girl? What will you be wearing tomorrow? Any identifying features? It’ll be easier for me to find you.

[3/3]

Shi Qingqing sent her own details, and the other party said she was a girl too, and would bring a laptop for the transaction tomorrow.

If the deal went through, hahaha, she would have another eight thousand yuan coming in.

Hehe, life was growing more and more comfortable.

All thanks to that broken phone!

Shi Qingqing finished the daily tasks on several accounts, and finally logged into her own account, Ace Power-Leveling Pro.

Several emails had arrived.

The Corpse King Flower she had listed at the auction house had sold, for one hundred and twenty thousand gold coins, purchased by the fearsome Sorrowful Killing expert.

When she last checked before logging off yesterday, the price had still been one hundred thousand. She did not know who had pushed Sorrowful Killing’s bid up to one hundred and twenty thousand.

Anyone who dared to drive up the price against Sorrowful Killing’s expert account certainly had some nerve.

There were also other auctioned items—some returned unsold after expiring, others converted into gold after being sold.

At the very end was a message from Sorrowful Killing’s expert account, along with ten thousand gold.

Apart from the ten thousand gold in the attachment, there was not a single extra word.

It suited an expert’s aloof style perfectly.

On Shi Qingqing’s account, she now had more than one hundred forty thousand gold in total. If she sold it through the online marketplace, that would bring in another fourteen hundred yuan.
