Chapter 28: Three Conditions

“Then why can you see it?” Mo Yan grew more curious about Su Bao’s identity.

Fu Lang: “…” It felt like a dagger to the heart.

Even forcing a smile felt impossible.

“It’s a long story.”

If you’re a brother, don’t ask.

But the little stoic Su Bao mercilessly added, “He can see it because he’s a dying man. Even though I helped him avert one disaster, he’s still not out of danger.”

Fu Lang felt like crying inside.

But no!

He thought he could still be saved!

So he forced a smile, mustering his energy, and looked at Su Bao with pleading eyes, “My great aunt, I was blind before and didn’t realize you had real skills. I swear, I know I was wrong, please save my life!”

Fu Lang’s groveling attitude was almost unbearable for Mo Yan to watch.

So he quietly turned his head away.

With thin lips pressed together, he sat quietly, exuding a calm and steady presence, but his military aura was impossible to ignore.

“I can save you, but there are conditions,” Su Bao said concisely.

And she spoke with utmost seriousness.

For Fu Lang, his life was more important than anything, conditions be damned!

“I’ll agree to any conditions!” Fu Lang nodded repeatedly.

Yes, whatever the conditions!

Even if it meant giving up his family’s shares, he’d agree!

After thinking for a moment, Su Bao said, “First, you need to give me five jade pendants like this one.”

Jade pendant = spiritual energy.

She needed spiritual energy for cultivation.

Fu Lang was almost moved to tears; these little trinkets cost about ten thousand each, so five would be fifty to sixty thousand.

“Okay, okay, I agree!”

“Second, I lost my meal card and have no money for food,” Su Bao said seriously.

About enough for a hundred chicken drumsticks on a meal card would do.

But before she could say the last part, Fu Lang had already rushed to say, “I understand, I understand! I’ll get you a new meal card right now!”

He hurried to the far corner of the cafeteria to get a new meal card.

In a rush, he loaded ten thousand onto the card when asked how much to put on it. (tln : around 1,3k usd

He initially wanted to load a hundred thousand. (tln : around 13k usd)

But the lady at the card desk looked at him like he was crazy, “Sir, meal cards don’t support such large amounts.”

This is why they say men shouldn’t handle kids; they don’t consider not flaunting wealth. If the card gets lost, that’s a huge loss!

Fu Lang: ???

Sir?

Excuse me?

“I…” Damn, who are you calling sir? “Alright, ten thousand it is.”

After getting the card, Fu Lang proudly placed it in front of Su Bao.

With a fawning smile, he said, “Little Su Bao, my great aunt, I loaded ten thousand for you, just for you!”

Su Bao: “…”

,Her lips drooped slightly.

Why couldn’t he load nine thousand five hundred and give her five hundred in cash?

“Is there a third?” Fu Lang’s eyes sparkled.

As if the more requests Su Bao made, the more assured he was that she would save his life.

Su Bao was about to say no, but then remembered she was missing something…

“Third, I need a phone.”

Fu Lang suddenly understood, “No wonder you wouldn’t give me your contact info, you didn’t have a phone!”

Su Bao: “…”

Suddenly, she felt a pang of regret.

This person was so annoying.

I didn’t have one, did you need to say it?
