Chapter 257 - Earning Money~
Xue Xi knew that one should not look at others’ business without permission, so she merely swept a glance and said, “Your ring.”
When Qian Xin saw the ring, he chuckled. “This is the first time something came back after I lost it!”
He was very excited. “This ring is back in my hands again, haha! Sister Xi, you see, this ring’s gem is a pair with my necklace’s gem. It becomes worthless if I lose one.”
After saying that, he reached out and touched his neck. “I especially had a thick gold chain with a gem made. I was afraid that the chain would suddenly break.”
Just as he said this, he suddenly paused.
Qian Xin lowered his head and saw that the thick gold necklace around his neck had disappeared.
Qian Xin: “…”
Xue Xi: “…”
When she came this morning, she did see Qian Xin wearing a thick gold necklace. He looked like a nouveau riche, but this person was too embarrassing, right?
Moreover, where could such a huge chain drop?
The corners of Xue Xi’s lips twitched. She then took out the box of gems and asked, “Is this very valuable?”
Qian Xin hurriedly waved his hand. “It’s not worth much. It’s just tens of millions!”
Xue Xi: “…”
Actually, when all the students in the classroom were staring at her “stones,” she already guessed that these gems were very valuable.
Now, hearing Qian Xin’s words, she suspected that he had fibbed again.
Xue Xi returned the box to him. “That’s too expensive. I can’t accept it.”
How could she not want something worth tens of millions?!
Qian Xin was stunned. He turned to look at Xiang Huai. “This… This is really not worth much. Sister-in-law, just accept it!”
Just as Xue Xi was about to decline, Xiang Huai suddenly said, “Why don’t you help him solve these questions in exchange!”
Qian Xin’s eyes lit up. “Yes!”
He threw the stack of math questions to Xue Xi and shouted, “Sister Xi, help me calculate. Can you calculate these questions?!”
He said, “I’m not a scientific researcher. Look, if you can calculate them, these gems will be considered remuneration!”
What questions were so expensive?
Xue Xi looked at the thick stack of numbers and questions in Qian Xin’s hands. After pondering for a while, she said, “Alright, I’ll give it a try.”
Seeing that she had new questions to solve, she could not wait to leave. “Then I’ll go back to school. I’ll tell you when I’ve finished calculating the questions.”
Qian Xin: “What will you tell me?”
Xue Xi paused and was stunned.
Qian Xin had already taken out his phone. “Sister-in-law, can you add me on WeChat?”
It’s Xiang Huai’s friend… He shouldn’t be a bad person…
After making a preliminary judgment, Xue Xi agreed. She then took out her phone and added the other party’s WeChat ID: Little Three Gold.
He watched as she edited Qian Xin’s name: “?”
This was the first time someone called him “Little”!
After Xue Xi left, Qian Xin turned to look at Xiang Huai and said with his northeastern accent, “Boss, Sister-in-law is really cute!”
Xiang Huai shot him a cold glance. “You really know how to settle scores. How dare you take advantage of anyone?”
Qian Xin was stunned. “Huh?”
Xiang Huai put down the Buddhist scriptures in his hand. “If she can calculate those questions, will it only be worth tens of millions?”
That was Qian Xin’s new company’s new project! If these problems could be solved, the entire project’s cost would be reduced by half! It would directly surpass M Country’s cost!
Qian Xin instantly waved his hand. “No, Boss. Do you really think Sister-in-law can solve those questions?”
Xiang Huai shot him a glance.
Qian Xin said, “Those are problems that many professors in the country can’t solve. How can Sister-in-law solve it? I just gave her the questions because I wanted to give Sister-in-law a way out. When she can’t solve them, I’ll just say that it’s fine. I can’t let Sister-in-law waste her brain cells, so I’d give her the gems!”
After saying this, he took out another stack of documents from his bag. “I know that you’re impatient, and I was afraid that you’ll tear the papers apart for me, so I have another copy here. Boss, I don’t care. Anyway, if you don’t finish calculating, I won’t leave!”
Xiang Huai: “…”
Xiang Huai picked up the Buddhist scriptures again and started reading.
However, in his heart, he thought, Has Canine Teeth been itching for a beating lately? He actually told this lazy person about what happened in Bin City. Given Qian Xin’s pestering abilities, it would be a little troublesome to get rid of him.
He just wanted to rest peacefully and focus on chasing his girlfriend. Why was it so hard?
However, forget it. The little kid’s family is very difficult. I’ll just treat it as giving her some pocket money.
The new year was coming soon and the kid would still need money to go to school next year.
He looked at the book and slowly said, “When the questions are solved, give her as much as you can.”
Qian Xin: “?”
Qian Xin was stunned. “No, Sister-in-law is indeed good at her studies. I also know what kind of contest the Mathematical Olympiad that she participated in is, but she might not be able to solve something like these questions. This problem is something that many mathematicians have failed to simulate…”
…
The questions were indeed a little troublesome.
Moreover, it involved a lot of mathematics knowledge. She had yet to learn them, but it was more meaningful if there was any difficulty.
Xue Xi originally had no interest in doing the exercise questions. Now that she saw these new questions, she felt as though she had been injected with fresh blood.
During the afternoon class, she was not attentive enough. As she looked at these questions, she listened to the class.
After school, she had already sorted out some knowledge that she did not know. She planned to look for relevant books in the library later. When she understood these knowledge points, she would come up with this problem’s solution.
After scanning around the library, she found a few professional books. Xue Xi showed her student ID and library card. The library’s teacher sighed. “There’s actually someone who can borrow such an obscure book! You can’t understand these things.”
Xue Xi smiled and did not say anything.
The library teacher could not say anything else. After borrowing the book, Xue Xi carried her heavy bag and walked out the door.
At the entrance, she saw Gao Yanchen leaning against the wall at the entrance of the school with his head lowered as he played with his phone.
Xue Xi paused. When she walked over, Gao Yanchen seemed to have sensed her presence and stood up straight.
Xue Xi asked, “What’s wrong?”
Gao Yanchen said, “Sister Xi, I need your help.”
Xue Xi: “… Tell me.”
Gao Yanchen’s red hair fluttered in the wind, but his eyes were focused. “I want to get into the capital’s university. Can you help me?”
Xue Xi paused.
Gao Yanchen scratched his head. “I know. My grades are a little terrible and I don’t have enough time, but I have to go to the capital.”
His gaze was determined and resolute.
Xue Xi instinctively felt that it had something to do with his parents’ death. After all, the car accident happened in the capital. She slowly asked, “What did your grandfather tell you?”
