I snagged a bargain in a melodramatic novel and became incredibly wealthy!

Chapter 186 Daily Life (Day 1)

Xiao Baihua nodded slightly, took a sip of the warm soup, and felt the warm current slowly flow down her throat, warming her whole body and mind.

She sipped her soup while nodding repeatedly, expressing her gratitude for the gesture.

Cai Yi inquired about Xiao Baihua's condition and the precautions she needed to take afterward from the busy medical staff in the school clinic.

After understanding the situation, she turned around and said gently to Xiao Baihua, "Then you should rest well. I will come to visit you again tomorrow."

After saying that, he waved goodbye to Xiao Baihua.

After leaving the school clinic, Caiyi was still thinking about another patient—Ma Ke.

Compared to Xiao Baihua, who received a lot of attention and had many students come to see her, Ma Ke's side must have been much quieter.

He's probably sitting here all alone right now, like a neglected cabbage in a field.

Because Shanhe had something to do beforehand, he explained it to Caiyi and then left the medical school.

With that thought in mind, Cai Yi quickened his pace and headed towards the school cafeteria.

The cafeteria had not yet started preparing meals, but the kind cafeteria lady still warmly agreed to Caiyi's request and carefully prepared a nutritious meal suitable for patients.

Before leaving, the cafeteria lady specially gave Caiyi a big, round, and cute red apple, and said with a smile, "Take this for the patient!"

Caiyi happily accepted the big apple, sweetly pleading, "Thank you, Auntie! I want one too!"

The cafeteria lady smiled and took out another apple from inside and handed it to her, and she specially picked out one that was big, bright red and tempting.

Caiyi took the apple, smiled broadly, completed the payment via mobile phone, and then happily picked up the bag full of food, quickly leaving the cafeteria and heading in the direction of Ma Ke.

The cafeteria lady, after receiving the money, was also all smiles.

Meanwhile, Ma Ke was sitting in his room, staring blankly out the window, wondering to himself why anyone would come to visit him.

Just then, a strong feeling of hunger struck him, and he involuntarily touched his empty stomach.

Just as Ma Ke was immersed in the feeling of hunger, Cai Yi had already quietly arrived at the door.

She immediately noticed Ma Ke stroking his belly and tilted her head, asking with a puzzled look, "Since you have a full 100 million yuan, why are you unwilling to spend a single penny?"

Upon hearing this, Ma Ke's expression changed drastically. His previously calm demeanor instantly darkened, and he frowned, replying with a hint of annoyance, "I have no interest in such filthy money."

Then, he continued indignantly, "You know, how could someone who raises a daughter like Du Li, with such wicked character, and who indulges and protects her, have acquired their wealth cleanly?"

Upon hearing this, Caiyi gently put down the items in her hands, picked up a bright red apple, took a bite, and explained with a grin, "This is the compensation Du Li is giving you, including compensation for the physical harm caused to you and for your emotional distress."

“You used perfectly normal compensation, not dirty money.”

This was the final verdict from the family!

Under normal circumstances, the compensation amount should never be this high.

Actually, the reason the family made this decision was simply because they saw Ma Ke as a rare talent, and given his status as the protagonist, they wanted to bring him in.

However, Ma Ke simply did not believe that the compensation could be as high as 100 million yuan.

Faced with this situation, Caiyi did not force the other party to accept it after he explained the situation. He simply smiled and told him to eat the food in front of him quickly.

Ma Ke hesitated for a moment, but ultimately did not refuse the offer.

After all, he had already secretly made a plan in his mind—after participating in the subsequent competitions and winning those generous prizes, he would definitely give half of it to Caiyi as a reward.

After Ma Ke finished his meal in a flash, a faint blush appeared on his handsome face. He then said somewhat shyly, "Um... I was wondering if it would be convenient for you to do me a favor and borrow a few books from the library?"

Upon hearing this, Cai Yi readily agreed without hesitation, and asked curiously, "This is nothing, but what kind of book is it?"

Ma Ke quickly pulled out a prepared slip of paper from his pocket and gently handed it to Cai Yi.

When Caiyi took the note and looked at it closely, she was instantly shocked by the dense list of book titles on it.

She couldn't help but mutter to herself, "My goodness... if he really joins our Special Operations Department, that would be incredibly competitive! You know, everyone in the Special Operations Department is already incredibly hardworking and dedicated. The competition is so fierce that sometimes even I feel a bit flustered and insecure when I see leaders coming to inspect our work!"

Caiyi sighed helplessly, carefully folded and put away the paper that was densely covered with writing on both sides, and then got up and walked towards the library.

If we don't hurry up and find those relevant materials and books today, we might not be able to find them all even if we wanted to bring them tomorrow.

To improve efficiency, she specifically asked Jiang Li to come and help.

Upon arriving at the library, Caiyi first tore the densely written paper in half, carefully avoiding the writing to prevent damage.

Then, each of them took half a sheet of paper and began a difficult search in the vast library.

The library is vast, with countless bookshelves, making it extremely difficult to accurately locate the specific books one needs.

Time flies, and before they knew it, it was lunchtime. However, there were still many places they hadn't searched, and the few books they found were temporarily left with the librarian for safekeeping.

So the two decided to go to the cafeteria for lunch first, and then return to continue the search for the rest of the items after they had filled their stomachs.

The cafeteria was still crowded, but it was much better than before when it was packed with people.

After all, most of the boys in the school had gone to the school clinic to visit the injured Xiao Baihua.

Today, the cafeteria was noticeably filled with girls, many of whom came specifically to see Xu Qingming and Wei Yan.

Just then, Xu Qingming and Wei Yan walked straight to the table where Cai Yi and Jiang Li were sitting. After exchanging greetings with smiles, the four of them sat down and quietly enjoyed their lunch.
