A Tiring Life

“Zhao Anqi isn’t an idiot. If that situation continued, her summoned spirit’s soul might be destroyed.”

Yan Wuyue shook her head helplessly when she saw Zhou Mingrui’s expression as if he wanted to continue fighting.

Zhou Mingrui pouted and said with a look of disdain, “Tsk. I was thinking about how I could at least earn several hundred thousand dollars. Who knew that guy was strong on the outside but weak on the inside? He was so stubborn before the fight, but he was so weak in the fight.”

“Alright, alright. We’ve already earned the money, so let’s stop blabbering. Let’s go home first. I have a plan in mind.”

With that said, Yan Wuyue quickly packed up her things and left the arena under the watchful eyes of the surrounding students. Zhou Mingrui followed closely behind.

Back home, Yan Wuyue poured a glass of warm milk and placed it in front of Zhou Mingrui.

She returned to her seat and asked, “Do you still remember the auction I mentioned before?”

After saying that, she picked up a drink, sat down on the edge of the bed, and crossed her long and sexy legs.

“If I remember correctly, it’s the special medicine from the Starry Sky Auction House, right?”

What Yan Wuyue had said before was still fresh in Zhou Mingrui’s mind.

“My credit card was frozen before, so I really had no choice. Now that we have 100,000 dollars, we can carry out this plan.”

“It’s really like there’s no way out when there are many mountains and rivers, but amidst the willows and flowers, a village appears.”

Yan Wuyue couldn’t help sighing when she thought of today’s events.

“What kind of medicine are those? And how are we going to pick up the leftovers?”

Zhou Mingrui found it rather interesting, so he continued asking.

“If the medicine in the box is given to a summoned spirit, it can improve the strength of the body and spirit. At the same time, it has a chance to improve the growing talent of the summoned spirit. If it is sold on the market, it will be worth at least 300,000 dollars.”

“The reason why we were able to pick up the leftovers was that those medicines were stored in a box made of special materials.”

“That special material can block almost 90% of the detection methods. The cost of the remaining detection methods is too high, and the gains would be difficult to make up for the losses.”

“So I’m guessing that the original owner of the box wanted to open it but was afraid that the loss would outweigh the gain, so he entrusted it to the auction house.”

Yan Wuyue explained the situation to Zhou Mingrui in detail.

“How did you know about this in your previous life?”

Zhou Mingrui asked.

“In my previous life, I didn’t see the mystery behind the box either. The main reason was that the person who bid for it was the champion of this year’s freshmen tournament, and it was the medicine in this box that allowed him to be ahead of the other students by a large margin and win the championship in one fell swoop.”

Yan Wuyue told him about the auction before her rebirth.

“Then I have a question. What’s the background of the student who obtained the medicine in the original timeline?”

“Have you ever thought about it? What if you snatch it from him, and he gets angry and insists on having it?”

Zhou Mingrui pointed out the possible problems that might arise in this mission.

“That time, he only spent less than 20000 dollars, and we have 100,000 dollars. When the time comes, we’ll raise the price to 50000 dollars, and there’s a high chance that he won’t compete with us.”

“If it doesn’t work, I’ll raise the price to 100,000 dollars. If we fail again, I’ll use my father’s money.”

“I didn’t have the chance before, but now that I have the chance, I will do everything I can to obtain it!”

Yan Wuyue said with a serious expression.

“I’m actually very curious about one thing. Since you already know my strength and your own strength, why don’t you go and find those old guys in the clan?”

“Once they know of your strength, your position will immediately be restored to an even more important position than before. By then, we won’t have to worry about having no money.”

“With money, are you still afraid that you can’t get those things?”

Zhou Mingrui shook his head in puzzlement. Before he transmigrated, countless people lamented that they did not have a good background. He never expected this woman to have so many demands.

“You don’t understand. In the beginning, I did use the clan’s resources to quickly increase my strength, but when my strength reached a certain level, those old guys began to use my name to bully people everywhere.”

“As a result, I had to clean up their mess many times, causing me to have to put in more energy to achieve my goal. It was not worth it.”

Yan Wuyue looked determined and said with a decisive tone.

“In that case, we’ll do as you say. I have no objections.”

Zhou Mingrui also understood Yan Wuyue’s thoughts.

“Then let’s rest first. The auction will start the day after tomorrow, and we can rest for a day.”

“I have troubled you for today’s battle. As long as we work together, with your talent for growth and my reincarnation experience and combat experience, we can grow to the top of the academy at the fastest speed.”

“After that, we’ll graduate as the most outstanding students of the academy and be promoted to Heavenly Saint Empire University. Then, we’ll use the rich resources of the university to improve our strength as soon as possible.”

“This way, we’ll be able to rise to the upper-middle level of the human race’s pyramid once we graduate. With our talents, we will rise to the top in no time.”

“Then, during the great calamity…”

“Stop stop stop!”

Listening to Yan Wuyue’s long-winded speech, Zhou Mingrui immediately felt a headache coming on. He hurriedly waved his hand to stop the other party from continuing.

“I don’t want to listen to these long speeches. It really gives me a headache.”

Zhou Mingrui said as he rubbed his temples.

“One must have a plan, especially for powerhouses like you and me who are destined to save the human race. We must make reasonable arrangements for the use of resources in order to have the highest probability of becoming the strongest powerhouses of the human race.”

“This is a responsibility for the safety of mankind!”

Yan Wuyue’s face turned serious, and her eyes were completely different from before.

At this moment, her aura completely burst out, and she seemed to have become the leader of the human race.

“That’s very simple. Just become strong and save mankind. Why do you have to do so much?”

“I know that you’re the kind of person who has a rigorous plan for life and is afraid of making a mistake.”

“I also understand that it’s because you’re carrying the hope of mankind on your shoulders. Ever since I first saw you, your words and actions have told me that you’re under a lot of pressure.”

“But my understanding tells me that since you’ve already been reborn once, why don’t you change your way of living?”

“You’ve been forcing yourself like this. It’s not like you owe them anything since you were born, so why do you have to make your life so difficult?”

“If the hope of a race and a civilization is placed on one person, then with all due respect, this race should go extinct as soon as possible.”

“No matter how strong you are, are you sure you can carry the entire human race on your own?”

“The strength of a civilization or a race depends on the whole, not an individual. Otherwise, you’ve saved humanity from a crisis this time, but what about next time?”

“If you succeed in saving them, what if there’s another crisis? Can you guarantee that you can still handle it?”

“Do you think you’ll never die?”

Zhou Mingrui suddenly said what he had always wanted to say. This was his view on life.

“I can’t say that what I say is absolutely correct, but this is my understanding of life. It’s your business whether you listen or not.”

“You can do whatever you want, but I don’t want to live a tired life like you, so please don’t drag me into this.”

“If you still insist, then it’s better for us to terminate the contract as soon as possible.”

With that said, Zhou Mingrui stood up and left his seat. He closed the door after he left, leaving Yan Wuyue in a daze.
