Join the ServerAfter Shen Hua unhappily returned to his seat, Ji Wenyan’s mood became exceptionally cheerful.
Recalling Shen Hua’s sarcastic remarks about him being carried in a princess embrace, Ji Wenyan felt an boundless exhilaration.
Nevertheless, it was time to shift his focus back to more pressing matters.
Bai Mengze’s attributes still required further enhancement.
Three attributes remained below the beginner level. Once all five attributes were fully upgraded, he would receive the 1000 Star Origin Points promised as a quest reward.
Regarding the system’s debt, Ji Wenyan thought it best to repay it as soon as possible.
This way, he could avoid any interest charges later on!
[System: As long as the host repays the debt before the 20th of next month, no interest will be incurred. However, continued delinquency will result in interest calculated based on the specific outstanding amount.]
‘1000 Star Origin Points, how much interest is that per day?’
[System: The daily interest is 10 Star Origin Points.]
‘Why don’t you just rob me?!’
Just as Ji Wenyan considered the money he owed the system, it immediately offered an explanation, yet its words left him utterly exasperated.
Even loan sharks couldn’t be this exorbitant!
‘System, can you be any more ruthless?’
[System: I must also remind the host that the Control Skill Package costs 1000 Star Origin Points per month. Please do not misunderstand.]
‘…’
Alright, the system truly could be more ruthless.
Learning with tearful resignation that he had to pay 1000 Star Origin Points every month, Ji Wenyan began to hope for random quests to appear, allowing him to earn more energy points.
The monthly expenses were simply too high!
However, opportunities to trigger quests were rare within the school.
“Ji Wenyan, what’s wrong? You look so listless. Are you feeling unwell?”
While Ji Wenyan was brooding over the monthly 1000 Star Origin Points, Bai Mengze asked with concern, fearing that something might have happened to him again.
Ever since Ji Wenyan fainted on the rooftop, Bai Mengze had categorized him as a delicate boy, requiring constant, careful protection.
Ji Wenyan, for his part, was at a loss for how to explain; there was absolutely nothing wrong with his body!
“It’s nothing, I just thought about how boring it gets at home, and I’m a bit reluctant to go back.”
“Are you the only one at home?”
“Yes, my parents come home very late, so it’s usually just me playing games on the computer… If I go back now, I’ll probably just play games again! Oh, and there’s a new game I bought that I haven’t finished yet…”
“No! If you play games all day, what about your studies? How about this: the math competition group has just been formed, and they haven’t asked me to join for extra study, so why don’t you come to my house to review your homework today!”
“Your house?”
Ji Wenyan felt that if opportunities didn’t arise, he needed to create them.
For instance, now.
Upon hearing Bai Mengze’s invitation, Ji Wenyan immediately grew excited, thinking that staying close to Bai Mengze, his cultivator, might lead to random quests!
Therefore, Ji Wenyan had no intention of refusing.
Even if he went home with Bai Mengze, the scenario of a single man and woman alone in a room was a common trope in many romance manga, novels, and even certain *ahem* materials.
‘Wait, what was he thinking?’
As his thoughts veered into inappropriate territory, Ji Wenyan promptly cut them off, focusing solely on completing the quest to earn Star Origin Points and cultivating Bai Mengze’s attributes.
Even if no quest materialized, improving Bai Mengze’s attributes would still be excellent.
Once they arrived at Bai Mengze’s house, he could activate his Perfect-grade Mathematics skill, which would further boost Bai Mengze’s Intelligence attribute.
“Yes, it’s a bit simple, but it’s a good place to study.”
“Okay, I’ll go home with you.”
Having made up his mind, Ji Wenyan naturally didn’t overthink it. Hearing Bai Mengze’s words, he nodded repeatedly like a pecking chick, fearing she might suddenly change her mind.
Seeing Ji Wenyan’s eagerness, Bai Mengze couldn’t help but raise a hand to her mouth and chuckle softly, thinking how highly motivated he was to study!
After witnessing the problems Ji Wenyan had given her, Bai Mengze knew he was definitely not a bad student!
Given his proficiency in mathematics, she presumed he would have no issues with other subjects either.
However, Ji Wenyan seemed to genuinely dislike studying.
Taking him home with her this time would give him more time to study… And once they were both in the math group, she could supervise his studies at any time!
As for whether Ji Wenyan could get into the math group, Bai Mengze had no worries.
He definitely could!
