Chapter 82: Little Red Hand, Please Release the Boss!
Just now, with so many people around, she had held herself back from shouting, but now she howled like a wolf, hurling all the bowls of soup her mother had handed her to the ground.
It was all that little wretch’s fault!
Yini didn’t care about her at all, just knew she hadn’t helped her take revenge.
The professor hadn’t agreed to help her get back at them either...
She was simply irritated, furious!
Shi Qingqing, just you wait!

Shi Qingqing returned home in the evening, right at seven o’clock.
Her mother had already prepared dinner. After receiving a gaming order last night, she had immediately transferred the money to her mother’s card.
No need for her to buy groceries anymore.
Shi Qingqing savored the delicious meal, thinking of Zhan Su—this guy didn’t even have food in his fridge and clearly couldn’t cook. What did he usually eat?
Did he skip dinner every night, trying to lose weight?
She’d been there two days and had never seen him eat dinner...
The nation’s campus heartthrob was really going all out to maintain his figure, but if he kept that up, he’d surely end up with stomach problems.
Shi Qingqing wondered if maybe after school tomorrow, she should go to the supermarket and buy some rice and eggs to bring to his place?
Ah, nonsense! She had promised herself today—she wouldn’t go again tomorrow.
Why buy rice and eggs at all!
“Qingqing, now that I’m better, maybe I should go back to work at the night market stall?” her mother, Shi Yufen, suggested as they ate, picking up some chives and eggs for Shi Qingqing.
“That boss is so unscrupulous. Business is good, but he still delays paying wages. He has no integrity—don’t go back there,” Shi Qingqing replied, remembering the desperation of going to ask for her pay and the boss’s hateful expression.
“All right, then I’ll look for another job,” Shi Yufen said. She couldn’t stand not working for even a few days; it made her anxious.
She wanted to save up to support her daughter.
After dinner, Shi Qingqing rushed to wash the dishes, then started on her homework.
It was Friday, and there was a lot to do; by the time she finished, it was already ten o’clock.
She quickly logged in to the game.
Her first power-leveling order was still the account of the great master, Zhiyi Xingnan.
The moment she logged in, her friends list lit up with messages.
[Private chat] Daogelas: Lucky hand, please help with the boss! I need the rogue’s artifact!
[Private chat] I’ve Got Medicine!: Canglang Academy 25-man elite raid, please help open the last Jiao Woman boss chest... need the healer artifact!
...
Shi Qingqing checked the locations of these two big shots; both were at Canglang Academy.
She also glanced over—Susha, the great master, seemed to be in the same dungeon.
They must all be in the same run.
She wanted to go; the artifact gold that Susha had shared with her from yesterday’s run had already been sold today, and the thousand yuan had arrived in her account.
This quick way of making money was exactly what she had dreamed of.
Unfortunately, she had no more lucky candy, so even if she wanted to loot, she wouldn’t get anything.
Dejected, she replied to both of them.
[Private chat] Zhiyi Xingnan: Nobody’s lucky every day, haha, I’m not going today.
...
Instantly, her message box flashed again.
[Private chat] Daogelas: How can that be? What if it drops again? I believe in you now! Whatever Susha gave you, I’ll double it if you get another drop!
[Private chat] I’ve Got Medicine!: It’s fine if nothing drops; nobody can guarantee an artifact every time. If nothing drops, you don’t get a share, but if something good drops, you still get a cut. What do you say?
...
The two of them tempted her in every way.
Since it had come to this...
Shi Qingqing couldn’t help but take a chance—what if something good dropped?
