Cosmic Trading System

"Young...Young...brother...I think there might be a misunderstanding..." Arkin stammered with a pained expression.

"Misunderstanding?" Lin Yun scoffed.

"Bang —"

Next momt, Lin Yun's stick struck down right on Arkin's head, causing Arkin to fall flat on his face.

After that, Lin Yun turned a, heading towards a taxi.

"Brother, are you okay?"

However, before Lin Yun could reach the taxi, the cab door swung op, and a girl flung herself into Lin Yun's arms, tears cascading down her face.

This girl was other than Xia Qingqing.

"Ssss...I'm fine…let's…go…"

During the fight, Lin Yun had be focused, not feeling the pain. But as soon as he stopped, he was immediately overcome with pain all over his body. Xia Qingqing's leap had landed her directly on his bruises. Lin Yun couldn't help but inhale sharply, but he swiftly forced a smile and spoke.

Having observed this, Xia Qingqing also realized something. She quickly retreated from Lin Yun's embrace, looking utterly lost.

She had be watching the whole brawl from inside the taxi. Lin Yun had be struck by many iron rods, causing her great distress and self-blame.

If not for her, Lin Yun wouldn't have gott into a fight with these m.

Before Xia Qingqing could dwell on it any longer, Lin Yun had already grabbed her hand and was striding toward a minivan.

They quickly checked that the minivan was unoccupied before climbing in.

Lin Yun took the driver's seat, and Xia Qingqing sat in the passger seat.

The momt after, the minivan started moving.

The Nightingale Bar wasn't on Qinglong District Main Street, but it wasn't far from it, which was why the bar was prospering. In just a couple of minutes, Lin Yun drove the minivan onto Qinglong District Main Street.

"Let's go!"

The decisive Lin Yun parked the vehicle, and both of them got out.

An hour later, inside a hotel room, on a bed.

"It's all because of me that brother got into a fight with those people…"

Xia Qingqing's eyes were red-rimmed, as she carefully applied medicine to Lin Yun's wounds, choking back her sobs.

All she could see were purple-black bruises all over Lin Yun's body, hardly any spot unaffected.

"Silly girl, if you borrowed others' money, why didn't you tell me? Ev if you didn't tell me that you borrowed money, why didn't you say anything wh they came to collect?" Lin Yun sighed gtly, patting Xia Qingqing's head as he spoke.

"Huh? How did brother know?" Xia Qingqing's eyes wided.

"If I hadn't gone to the bar today, they would have tak advantage of you." Lin Yun shook his head, speaking his thoughts.

"Are you saying... someone was plotting against me…" Xia Qingqing was a bright girl, and she quickly caught on to what Lin Yun was implying, exclaiming her surprise.

All the strange coincidces now made sse to her. No wonder Tianyu had be so furious.

Giv that the m had only made a few disrespectful remarks about her, Lin Yun was undoubtedly vicious in his retaliation.

Everything had an explanation now.

Xia Qingqing believed every word Lin Yun said. At that momt, she was moved by all that he had done for her.

He had be so angry, all for her sake.

Lin Yun nodded slightly, proceeding to recount what he had heard at the bar.

Xia Qingqing broke out in a cold sweat as she listed.

Brother was right; if he hadn't be at the bar that day, she couldn't bear to imagine what would have happed to her.

With that thought, she became furious instantaneously. "I can't believe... that Tianyu dared to..."

She really hadn't expected this—they were still studts after all. She had thought that Tianyu would back off after she blew him off, and never in a million years did she think Tianyu would collude with people from the underworld, in order to force himself on her. That was a crime.

"The world is far more complicated than you think," Lin Yun sighed.

There is a saying, where there are people, there are struggles.

You might not provoke others, but others might come provoking you.

In the past, he was constantly dealing with schemes while trying to establish himself in the Qinglong District. Not to mtion the more distant past, ev just over a month ago wh he had tered the high imitation market, he had be targeted by many people. In the d, all his years of hard work were reduced to nothing.

"By the way, why did you go to that bar, brother? Were you in a bad mood?" Seeing Lin Yun sigh like that, something clicked in Xia Qingqing's mind. She urgtly asked, the concern evidt in her tone.

"I wasn't in a bad mood. I had some business at the bar," Lin Yun laughed, adding, "By the way, there's something I've be meaning to tell you."

"What is it?" Hearing that Lin Yun wasn't in a bad mood and judging from his demeanor, Xia Qingqing sighed with relief. However, she was quickly tak aback by Lin Yun's last few words and asked subconsciously.

Despite her outward calm, Xia Qingqing's mind was racing.

Lin Yun never wt to bars. What could have possibly made him go today?

As far as she knew, Lin Yun never tertained his clits at bars.

Could it be that Lin Yun had heard that she was going to the bar today and wt there because of it?

That seemed highly possible...

So, what was it that Lin Yun wanted to tell her?

Going to the bar to find her... having something to talk about... and now Lin Yun had something to tell her again...

Could it be possible that brother had changed his mind and planned to accept her?

Lin Yun had be angry... because he cared too much about her...

Thinking about all the confession strategies she had read and expericed, Xia Qingqing couldn't help but blush, her heart pounding in her chest.

What teage girl didn't yearn for love?

Although she had be secretly admiring Lin Yun, she always hoped that one day, Lin Yun would confess his feelings to her.

"I acquired the agcy rights for several products, and one of them has be selling really well these past few days, netting me quite a substantial sum of money, probably in the millions," Lin Yun said with a small smile.

He didn't conceal the amount of money he had actually made.

Because he had set his mind on Xia Qingqing.

Because he was afraid that Xia Qingqing would hide things from him again.

In case Xia Qingqing countered a similar situation again, it would be too late for his regrets.

However, he did not disclose anything about the Cosmic Trading System to Xia Qingqing.

It wasn't that he doubted Qingqing, but rather, the more people knew about something, the higher the risks. The matter of the Cosmic Trading System was too significant. Moreover, after reading some of the information on the Cosmic Trading System, he knew that some people could discover certain things ev if you didn't want to tell them or didn't say it out loud.

Right now, he wasn't powerful ough. He would tell Xia Qingqing wh he had grown stronger.

"Huh?" Xia Qingqing was dumbfounded.

She hadn't expected Lin Yun to tell her that. She had just... she was so embarrassed. Xia Qingqing felt her face heat up ev more.

As a result, Xia Qingqing failed to register the numbers Lin Yun had just mtioned.

"Brother secured the agcy rights for several products, and their sales are good. I'm glad for you..." Feeling embarrassed, Xia Qingqing lowered her head, speaking quietly, her face flushed.

"Huh?" It was th that Xia Qingqing realized the sum Lin Yun had just mtioned. She immediately looked up, shock writt all over her face. "Brother, you just said you made how much?"

"Hehe, a few million. So, if anything comes up in the future, don't hide it from me," Lin Yun said, laughing as he saw Xia Qingqing belatedly react. He tderly patted her on the head.

What a silly girl.
