Chapter 3 My Brother Is a Bad Guy!

Cough, cough, cough!

Just then, Jiang Chen suddenly felt a tightness in his chest and couldn't help coughing.

"Fa Cai, time's up, I'm going out first."

Jiang Chen waved to Fa Cai, and then left the Yuling Space.

In the rental house, Jiang Chen appeared again, but his face became a little pale.

Although he could enter and exit the Yuling Space freely, and even fiddle with the fruit trees in it, he couldn't stay as long as he wanted.

Jiang Chen calculated that under normal circumstances, he could stay in the Yuling Space for one minute. If he exceeded this time, his mental power would be severely consumed.

Once the mental power is consumed excessively, it will cause damage to his body.

Jiang Chen once tried to find his limit, but he almost fainted on the farm after staying for only 15 seconds longer.

Although he finally forced himself to get out, he still had to lie at home for three days before recovering.

During those three days, Jiang Chen felt as if someone was constantly stabbing his brain with a needle. If he hadn't been determined, he would have gone crazy long ago!

However, since then, Jiang Chen has never stayed in the farm for more than a minute. As long as his body shows any abnormality, he will be teleported out immediately.

And just now, because of the fortune he gained from comprehending his life skills, Jiang Chen actually overlooked this point.

"One life core can only produce one gold coin. This golden finger is really a bit expensive."

Jiang Chen looked at the dark night sky outside the window, rubbed his eyebrows, quickly washed up, had a few bites of dinner, and fell asleep on the bed.

Five thirty in the morning.

Jiang Chen opened his eyes on time, opened the curtains, washed up quickly, changed into a brand new white sportswear, and ran out.

At this time, the sky was slightly bright, and there were no people on the street. Only some breakfast vendors pushed carts one after another.

An old man with gray hair and a kind smile on his face saw Jiang Chen appear and immediately waved.

"Xiao Chen, you're going for a run again. Why don't you take a nap after the college entrance exam?"

"Good morning, Uncle Wang."

Jiang Chen smiled slightly and said, "I'm used to getting up early, and I can't sleep."

"Except when it's windy and rainy, I get up on time every day to run. I wish my kid could be like you, Xiao Chen."

Uncle Wang shook his head and sighed, then took out two buns from the steamer and a bag of soy milk and handed them to Jiang Chen.

"Still the same as before, two meat buns and a bag of soy milk?"

"Uncle Wang, give me thirty meat buns and fifteen bags of soy milk."

Uncle Wang was stunned, glanced at Jiang Chen's clothes, and immediately understood.

"Are you going to see Dean Leng and the others again?"

"Well, I haven't been there for several days. I'll go and see them again while I have some time before school starts."

Jiang Chen nodded slightly, helped Uncle Wang pack the buns and soy milk, put them in his backpack, and left quickly.

"What a good kid. I don't know how his parents could bear to throw him into an orphanage. Alas..."

Looking at Jiang Chen's receding back, Uncle Wang sighed and then began to shout loudly.

"Steamed buns, freshly baked steamed buns~"

...

Piaoxue Orphanage.

Six o'clock in the morning.

Dean Leng had just opened the gate when he saw a familiar figure coming towards him.

"Xiao Chen, you are still so punctual."

"Of course I can't be late for the appointment."

Jiang Chen showed a warm smile on his face, took out steamed buns and soy milk from his backpack and handed them to Dean Leng.

"The steamed buns are still hot~"

Dean Leng took the steamed buns and glanced at Jiang Chen's white sportswear, which was clean but obviously bought a long time ago, and a helpless smile suddenly appeared on his face.

"I'll go wake up those little guys. They've been talking about you for a long time. They were so excited that they didn't sleep well all night when they heard you were coming yesterday."

"But don't bring anything next time you come. Save some money and buy yourself two more new clothes."

"Okay."

Jiang Chen agreed very readily, but his eyes betrayed his true thoughts.

Seeing this, Dean Leng shook his head helplessly and walked towards the orphanage with Jiang Chen.

This child has had his own ideas since he was a child. Once he made a decision, no one could change it. I didn't expect that he would still be like this when he grew up.

"By the way, Xiaoyu called me yesterday and said that he would come too. Calculating the time, he should be here soon."

"Bai Xiaoyu? Can he get up?"

Jiang Chen pretended to be surprised and said.

"You are so good, Jiang Chen. You are plotting against me behind my back while I'm away?"

A hearty voice came into Jiang Chen's ears. Jiang Chen turned his head to look to the side. After seeing the tall and short-haired boy with an unhappy face, the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

"Don't talk nonsense. I clearly made it up in front of you."

Piaoxue Orphanage is located in a corner of Lingyin City. Usually, no one comes here. How could Jiang Chen fail to notice Bai Xiaoyu approaching?

After all, this is his friend who has lived with him in the orphanage for sixteen years...

"Okay, okay, I'm no match for you, the top scholar."

Bai Xiaoyu admitted defeat without hesitation and patted Jiang Chen's shoulder vigorously. After seeing Jiang Chen grimacing in pain, he smiled with satisfaction.

"Dean, long time no see."

Dean Leng nodded slightly and said, "Xiao Chen brought some buns, let's eat together."

"Buns?"

Bai Xiaoyu's eyes lit up, and after seeing the bag of buns, he felt a little disgusted.

"Jiang Chen, you are still as stingy as ever. It's not enough for me to fill my teeth with just this little."

Jiang Chen pulled the corner of his mouth and said, "I didn't prepare your share in the first place, and it's better than someone who comes to eat and drink for free."

"What do you mean by eating and drinking for free? When I go home to eat, I call it eating for free..."

"Hehe~"

Seeing the two people start bickering like this, Dean Leng's eyes became more kind, as if he saw the scene of the two when they were young.

Only when he was with Bai Xiaoyu, Jiang Chen would behave like a teenager of seventeen or eighteen.

The noise of the two bickering broke the tranquility of the early morning, and some noises were heard from the orphanage.

The children in the orphanage began to get up.

"Dean, take these buns to the little ones. I'll take Jiang Chen to eat outside and play for a while."

Bai Xiaoyu glanced at the swaying figures by the window, and regardless of whether Jiang Chen agreed or not, he directly pulled Jiang Chen away.

"Hey, hey, hey, if you want to go, just go by yourself. Why are you dragging me along? I've made an appointment with the little ones to have breakfast together."

Jiang Chen wanted to break free from Bai Xiaoyu's restraints, but this guy was too strong, so he could only let Bai Xiaoyu drag him away.

"Come back early and save lunch for you."

Dean Leng nodded, and after hearing the movement behind him, he immediately turned around and returned to the orphanage.

"Children, Brother Jiang Chen brought you some buns, come and eat them quickly."

"Hey... Didn't Brother Jiang Chen say he would come to have breakfast with us? Why didn't he come? Is Brother Jiang Chen lying?!"

"I just saw Brother Xiaoyu coming too. He must have taken Brother Jiang Chen away!"

"Humph! Brother Xiaoyu is a bad guy. Not only did he not come back, but he also took Brother Jiang Chen away!"

"Yeah, Brother Xiaoyu is a bad guy!"

"Okay, the brothers have their own things to do, and they will be back before dinner. You guys have breakfast first."

Looking at the noisy kids in front of him, Dean Leng smiled and brought out the breakfast that had been prepared long ago.

"Really?"

"Really!"

"Yeah!!!"
