Online Game: Crazy Skeleton-Chapter 629 - 593: Not for Sale, Even for 5 Million!

However,

Han Siying showed no intention of leaving, instead revealing an inscrutable expression.

"Su Ran, this is a check for five million yuan. All you have to do is agree to transfer the domain to me, and it’s all yours."

"Five million?!"

Before Su Ran could respond, a startling exclamation came from behind him, making him jump.

"Little Ran, what could possibly be worth five million? Even if we sold our home, we’d still fall short!"

Stimulated by the vast sum, Su’s mother hurried to her son’s side, settled herself on a stool, and had no intention of leaving.

It was only then that Su Ran understood the implication behind Han Siying’s expression. The woman wanted to use his mother to pressure him!

What a cunning and intelligent woman!

"Auntie, it’s nothing, Su Ran acquired a piece of virtual territory, which I want to buy."

Han Siying smiled, her demeanor instantly changing from frosty to warm.

Her words shattered the last vestiges of hope Su Ran had.

"Can things in a game really be worth that much?"

Su’s mother’s eyes lit up with joy, while Han Siying placidly brushed dust off her clothes, waiting for Su Ran’s decision.

"Mom, this isn’t your concern. You can go and get busy."

Being intervened in this way by his mother gave Su Ran a headache. There were many things he couldn’t say to her—this woman had such a loud mouth, it would surely be spread all around!

"I’ve nothing else to do at home, you two can chat, I’ll just sit here and listen."

Su’s mother pretended to be confused, she cast a glance at Su Ran, and then turned a reproachful look on Han Siying, "Young lady, you can’t be so rash! Five million isn’t just pocket change... do your parents know about this?"

Hang on, Mom, I thought you were just listening? Why do you start prying?!

"Auntie, this is my own money and doesn’t require my family’s authorization. You don’t have to worry about the source of the money, I would never engage in any illegal activities."

Han Siying was very obedient, and at that moment, she looked calm and dignified. Her previously high and mighty attitude had disappeared, as if she had become a different person.

Su Ran remained silent, not saying a word, his gaze fixed on the coffee table in front of him, lost in thought.

"Little Han, what does your family do? You’re so rich, did you plant hectares of coriander?"

Having spent her time in the vegetable market, Su’s mother was very knowledgeable about vegetable prices.

"Auntie, you’re funny. Our family business is quite complicated. We have a bit of everything, but we’ve never touched agriculture."

Han Siying answered the question seriously, indirectly justifying the origin of the five million check.

"So, you come from a wealthy family, ah. No wonder you can throw around five million so casually. Quite unlike us poor folks, we’ve never seen that much money in our lives."

Then, Su’s mother looked at Su Ran, "Son, let me tell you something fair. Things in a game aren’t real. You can’t take advantage of your classmate just because she’s rich. Do you hear me?"

"Auntie, it’s not what you think, Su Ran didn’t scam me. I’m the one who wanted to buy it, but unfortunately, he doesn’t want to sell..."

Before Su Ran could respond, Han Siying interrupted, her expression dimmed, making her look like she had been mistreated.

"Son, you are in the wrong here. Little Han has been waiting for you for two hours just to buy your item in the game. Even if you do have a grudge, is there anything that five million can’t fix?"

Su’s mother spoke plainly, but what she said made sense. To her, items in games were just that, items in a game. Not a real thing, even if he had a grudge with this little Han, he couldn’t refuse a business deal. Five million, for an ordinary family, they would not worry about food and drinks for a lifetime.

"Mom, I need it to survive."

With these soft words from Su Ran, it was as if a hammer struck Su’s mother’s heart.

After a moment of silence,

Su’s mother turned to Han Siying, expressing regret, "Little Han, we decided not to sell the virtual item you want to buy. You see, it’s almost dark. You’re a girl, and it would be a concern if you got home too late."

Su Ran could tell, even though his mother’s voice was soft, her tone was unusually firm.

"Understood, Auntie. I just need a word with Su Ran before I leave."

Han Siying could certainly tell that Su’s mother was trying to rush her away. She got up and said to Su Ran in a very solemn tone, "Since we can’t reach an agreement, then we’ll have to meet on the battlefield. Su Ran, I hope you won’t regret your decision!"

"I’m tired of your nonsense. Mom, I’m not feeling well, could you please escort her out for me? I need to go."

After that, Su Ran ignored the woman, turned around and left, step by step, returned to his room.

"Meow~"

The cat, Little Black, glared fiercely at Han Siying before turning to chase after Su Ran, rushing into the room, and slamming the door shut.

"Little Han, I apologize for my son’s rudeness. Little Ran has been suffering from illness, and he’s bitter about it, causing him to speak a bit extreme. He didn’t mean to target you. Please don’t be offended..."

Embarrassed by her son’s rudeness, Su’s mother hurriedly defended him to Han Siying, hoping to diffuse her resentment.

Because, she knew, wealthy families are not to be trifled with!

Only after seeing Han Siying off did Su’s mother heave a sigh of relief. She flopped into a chair, rubbing her temples, muttering, "That damn kid, always leaving problems for me to deal with. From now on, he’ll have to handle such messes himself!"

Immediately after, she turned her penetrating gaze towards the tightly shut door of his room, her heart filled with worry.

"Little Ran, that Han Siying isn’t to be trifled with. Be careful in the game!"

...

Returning to his room, Su Ran leaned against the door, head hung low, quiet.

"Meow~"

Perceiving his master’s oppressive mood, Little Black rubbed his small head against Su Ran’s leg, meowing softly in the hope its master would cheer up.

"Little Black, if there ever comes a day when I become an enemy of the world, will you still stay by my side?"

With a faint smile on his face, Su Ran squatted down and playfully tugged at Little Black’s whiskers, saying this seemingly absurd thing.

"Meow?"

There was confusion in Little Black’s bright eyes. Its head tilted to one side, not understanding what Su Ran meant.

After playing with Little Black for a while, Su Ran stood up, massaged his sore leg, and moved to enter the game cabin.

But,

Before Su Ran could lay his body down, the phone on the bed began to vibrate.

"Meow!"

Little Black jumped onto the bed, picked up the phone in its mouth, and quickly brought it to Su Ran, dropping it in his hands.

"Who could it be, calling this late?"

Already used to Little Black’s cleverness, Su Ran took the phone, pondering aloud.
