After class, Xiao Yao sat on his table. It was his first time doing so well on an exam, so he should reward himself for his hard work.

“Shall we have a barbecue tonight?” Xiao Yao suggested excitedly.

A barbecue!

Hearing these two words, Wen Yu’s eyes lit up, and he subconsciously swallowed his saliva.

To him, the happiest thing in life was barbecue and potato chips.

“Sure, where are we going to eat?” Xie Shuyao’s interest was piqued as she agreed.

Xiao Yao shook his feet and turned his head to the side, his eyes filled with anticipation. “I know a really good place. Jinqi, are you coming with us?”

Xie Shuyao and Wen Yu stared at her, hoping that she would go with them. However, their hopes were ultimately rejected.

Lu Jinqi took her phone and sent a message. Without raising her head, she replied, “I have something to do tonight, you guys can go.”

Even though they expected to be rejected, they still felt a little disappointed.

Xiao Yao hooked his arm around Wen Yu’s neck. “Looks like it’s just the three of us.”

..

“Hello, Ms Lu. I’m Mo Ting. I’ve contacted you before,” Mo Ting was dressed in a professional outfit. In her left hand, she held a folder as she politely greeted her.

When she received the message today, she was still very surprised. After all, she had called Lu Jinqi previously and sent her a message, but there had been no response.

“Mm.” Lu Jinqi raised her head, her cold voice carrying a hint of uneasiness.

Seeing her raise her head, Mo Ting was captivated.

The girl’s face was exquisite and eye-catching, her thin red lips slightly raised. The streetlight illuminated her features making her look charming.

After regaining her senses, she could not help but suspect that this person did not look like an adult. So she had to make sure that she could afford a house.

“May I ask how old you are this year?” Mo Ting still had a professional smile on her face.

Lu Jinqi raised her eyebrows slightly, but her smile did not reach her eyes. “Why? Are you doubting me?”

Mo Ting’s expression did not falter. “No, I’m just curious. I’ll take you to see the house now.”

Soon, the two of them arrived at a residential area. To be precise, it should be described as a wealthy area.

Within a time span, they saw many mansions closely connected to each other.

“Ms Lu, according to your request, there’s a more suitable one in this residential area,” Mo Ting said as she looked at the documents in her hands.

Lu Jinqi replied with a low grunt.

Not too far away, Zhu Lanzhi saw a familiar profile and tugged at the person beside her. “Yayin, isn’t that person Lu Jinqi?”

Song Yayin looked over and saw a white silhouette. “It shouldn’t be. That place is for the rich and wealthy. Jinqi can’t enter such places.”

Zhu Lanzhi thought for a moment. It seemed to be the case, but the features of that lady looked quite recognizable.

“I must be seeing things then. Let’s go in.”

Song Yayin followed behind her. She could not help but take another look to confirm her sights, but to no avail. They had already left.

..

Mo Ting brought Lu Jinqi around the entire house and asked, “What do you think, Ms Lu?”

“It’s alright, this is it.” After saying that, she handed the card over.

Lu Jinqi did not have much of a request when choosing a house. The most important factor for her was to have a place to sleep in.

It was the first time Mo Ting had seen such a straightforward customer. Mo Ting could not stop herself from smiling.

Signing and swiping the card, her actions were really smooth.

“Well Ms Lu, I’ll be heading out first,” Mo Ting held the contract in her hands and resisted the urge to scream. She then politely left.

Lu Jinqi threw herself onto the sofa. When she saw the message on her phone with only 500 dollars left, she sighed.

She just bought a house with 100 million dollars, she might as well have stayed in the hotel.

Her slender fingers pressed a number and dialed.

In country R, Netherworld was drinking coffee with his little sister. When he saw the caller on his phone, he abruptly stood up, causing his chair to make a loud noise.

Everyone in the coffee shop looked over at the commotion he caused.

The girl sitting next to him felt embarrassed and covered her face with the menu silently. She whispered, “What the heck are you doing?”

Netherworld came back to his senses and smiled apologetically at everyone before walking out with his phone.

“How strange. Why did you call me today, J? Is there a problem?”

Lu Jinqi ignored his teasing and went straight to the point. “Help me. I want to take on a few more cases.”

Netherworld was surprised. He took his phone and looked at the screen. That’s right, it was indeed J’s number.

“Didn’t you just say a few days ago that you weren’t taking cases? Why did you suddenly change your mind?”

Lu Jinqi was at a loss for words. She could not possibly say she just bought a house, and all her belongings would be gone if she did not earn more money right now.

“I’m short of money,” Lu Jinqi touched her nose and said concisely.

This sentence seemed to have hit the punch line of the other party. Lu Jinqi heard the continuous laughter on the other end of the phone.

Netherworld was delighted. As expected of J, there was no other reason.

Thinking of the two recent orders, he wanted to watch her succeed again. “There are two cases. The fees are very high. Do you want to take them?”

Lu jinqi said faintly, “How much?”

“Both are 100 million.”

Lu Jinqi sat up and took out the laptop from her bag. As she turned on the laptop, she asked, “What’s on the list?”

“Old Cat and Si Jingyun are giving 100 million to those who can find J.”

After hearing this, Lu Jinqi’s fingers paused for a moment.

It was understandable for Old Cat to look for her, but why did that other man look for her?

“J, Old Cat is really angry this time. He offered me 100 million before sharing it, even I was tempted to take it on,” Netherworld teased.

Once these two cases were shared, many people were tempted, but no one wanted to take them. The main reason was that no one could surpass J’s skill yet.

“If I don’t pick these two, what about the others?”

‘Are you crazy? Why did you ask me for jobs but not take them?’

“Not for the time being, I’ll keep an eye out for you.”

“Okay.” Lu Jinqi hung up without saying a word.

On the other side, the corners of Netherworld’s mouth twitched as he looked at his phone. He really wanted to throw it away after that call.

..

Lu Jinqi propped up her chin and casually browsed through the internet. At that moment, a novel website caught her interest. She clicked on it and saw the author’s benefits column.

She smirked. Suddenly, she realized that writing a novel was not that bad of an idea.

If Netherworld heard this, he would definitely say that she was just interested in the author’s royalties.

Looking at the registration information in front of her, under the name column, Lu Jinqi immediately typed two letters, LQ.

As for the title, it was even simpler. Sin of the Abyss, these four words to her title were confirmed.

No one would have thought that Lu Jinqi would be the one who wrote the popular novel.

As for writing the novel, Lu Jinqi did not feel anything. Her fingers continuously tapped on the keyboard, and in a short while, a flurry of creative words came out.

She clicked on the publish button, turned off the laptop, and left the villa.

She did not care about how much attention her novel had attracted, she just wanted royalties. She carried her bag, one hand in her trouser pocket, and walked towards the gate of the residential area.

On the way, she met the man who spent 100 million to find J.

Their eyes met.

“..”

What a small world.

Lu Jinqi felt a little guilty looking at this man, but she did not know why.

Si Jingyun looked at her and chuckled. He walked towards her with his fit figure.

His body was well-defined, and he stretched out his arm casually.

He pinched her face in a slightly punitive manner. “Little child, what are you doing here this late?”
