Chapter 87: A Kiss That Cost a Fortune

No way, I’m dirty now—I have to rinse my mouth!

The girl snapped back to reality and dashed into the bathroom. She started brushing her teeth furiously, making sure not to miss her tongue, since that was the most corrupted area today. Of course, she rinsed thoroughly too.

If she weren’t afraid of pain, Zhou Ruoyu would have given herself a gastric lavage like Gu Xue, or even poured disinfectant down her throat… the latter would be paying homage to a certain someone—a bit suicidal. Maybe… quicklime water would work?

Finally, after brushing three times, Zhou Ruoyu took a deep breath, dared to swallow some water, and snapped back to reality. She sat down on the sofa and opened her phone, only to see a sudden WeChat message from Gu Jiachen.

[Gu Jiachen: Running so fast~ More and more like a little rabbit~]

[Gu Jiachen: Don’t be mad, get some rest. Later I’ll transfer another hundred thousand to your card.]

[Gu Jiachen: Spend some money and enjoy yourself, so you won’t be so pissed off about company stuff~]

[Gu Jiachen: Good night…]

Gulp…

Reading her rival’s message, the black-haired loli pouted. Tsk… does this guy really think a hundred thousand can make up for the sin of stealing her first kiss?

Well, it actually could…

Cough, cough…

No, that’s not what I meant. I’m not some gold-digging girl who gives up her dignity for money—that would make me a real round pepper. Cough… The main reason is… now that she had calmed down, Zhou Ruoyu thought it over.

This… wasn’t this something she had been prepared for from the start?

From the first day she approached Gu Jiachen, accepted his sponsorship, and became a corporate spy at his side, hadn’t she already expected this kind of encounter? Even… the current situation was better than what she had imagined back then.

Besides, since it had already happened, and she couldn’t change it, she might as well… treat it as a gift to him! Cough… At least her rival had pretty good kissing skills, and… pressing against his chest did give an inexplicable thrill.

What made the girl uncomfortable was… she still occasionally remembered she used to be a boy! This current form was just a transformation forced by the female brat system, and she still needed to accumulate success points to change back!

Under this mindset, being forcefully kissed by a man—especially her enemy—even though he was good-looking… she had a mental preparation, but never expected it to be so useless in reality. She was easily broken through, stimulated to the point where she couldn’t even resist, truly despairing.

In this situation, what else could Zhou Ruoyu do? She had to first try to forget she used to be a boy, escape the pain of her male pride, then achieve a spiritual victory. Again, she would just say she gave it to him!

Hmph!

The boss of Chenji Group was already hooked by her tease! With just a light kiss, Gu Jiachen was only enjoying himself, not realizing how much loss this kiss would bring him! It was the most expensive kiss in the world, sounding the charge for Chenji’s bankruptcy!

Cough, cough…

Could she… explain it that way?

Zhou Ruoyu pondered. Though it seemed like more than one kiss, um… but that only lowered the unit loss per kiss, so no worries—the total loss was still the same!

As for how big that loss was, it depended on how far Boss Long Yu could go with the intel she got! Come on, step it up!

With that mental construction, she adjusted her mood after only about an hour of depression…

Then, she opened the WeChat chat window with Boss Long Yu. Originally, she wanted to give him some guidance on how to use the newly acquired intel to make Chenji suffer more… but the black-haired loli realized she didn’t understand any of that, so she gave up.

She then thought about complaining to Boss Long Yu about Ling Bo stealing her design and backstabbing her, just like Liu Ruyan last time.

But… when she reread Boss Long Yu’s reply to her, she hesitated.

Because the meaning of that message was clear: some of her problems, whether justified or not, he could help solve—it was just a matter of whether he wanted to. And according to his previous message, the value of this intel was there, but not much, so…

Ah—

It seems troublesome now.

Zhou Ruoyu thought about Ling Bo’s situation again and realized that Ling Bo and Liu Ruyan had different positions in the company. Ling Bo was much more popular than Liu Ruyan. Many in the customer service department wanted Liu Ruyan gone, so they cheered for Zhou Ruoyu, which made it easy for Boss Long Yu to deal with her.

But Ling Bo was quite popular in the planning department… True, before being backstabbed, Zhou Ruoyu had always thought Sister Xiao Bo was a friend worth knowing. With such good acting skills, it’s natural to be well-liked.

So…

It seems complaining might not make much difference anymore…

Zhou Ruoyu scratched her head and thought again. To avoid making her boss think she was a troublemaker who always stirred up conflicts at the branch, the black-haired loli decided to hold off for now… Following Gu Jiachen’s idea, she would first win the competition and vent her anger…

Then, she would see if she could use Ling Bo’s words to fish out some evidence if Ling Bo lost her composure, and then confront Boss Long Yu—the effect would be much better!

Damn, I’m such a genius~

Having figured everything out, the little rabbit raised its antennae happily, only to hear the female brat’s prompt in her mind.

[Ding~ Ah, congratulations, trash fish-chan, for once again carrying out this prompt’s suggestion~ One step closer to being a successful person~ Rewards: 10,000 success points, one Miraculous Brush that Brings Flowers to Life~ Truly a cause for celebration, truly a cause for celebration~]

Huh?

Hearing the task completion notification, Zhou Ruoyu was both confused and annoyed. What… how was getting played by Gu Jiachen as a bunny girl considered solving her troubles? Isn’t the condition for completing this task a bit outrageous?

Celebration my ass… How is this one step closer to being a successful person?! I don’t know if I’ve succeeded, but I’m about to become a rabbit!

Damn!

The black-haired loli started to doubt the authenticity of this female brat prompt. Could this be some new AI developed by the Chenji Group?

But soon, her doubts vanished because, upon seeing the new reward item named “Miraculous Brush that Brings Flowers to Life,” Zhou Ruoyu gasped and was instantly awestruck.

[Miraculous Brush that Brings Flowers to Life: Using this brush to paint automatically grants the painting ability of a super-genius artist with over twenty years of experience, and painting speed increases by 200%.]

This… this is a godly artifact! I mean a real godly artifact! Mythical equipment!
