Female Novel
Chapter 897
After Jean read her text in his house, he couldn’t help but burst into laughter and sent another message to teaseher.
“You think one million, nine hundred ninety-nine thousand and nine hundred is just a little over one million?”
Neera: “...”
She just shut herself down.
She then replied angrily: “Don’t you worry about matters of pretty girls!!”
Then, she took out a large-sized facial mask and put it on.
Her already small face was suddenly half-covered
She took a selfie with her phone and found her appearance to be quite satisfying. Only then, she walked into thelibrary.
Compared to its exterior, the interior of the library was just as astonishing.
As soon as anyone enters the door, they’ll be able to see endless rows of bookshelves.
The staircase went upward floor by floor, and millions of medical books were stacked up all the way to the top ofthe building.
In the middle of the library, there were two fully transparent elevators that people could ride on.
Every person in the library had to first swipe their badges at the front desk.
The badge was also their entry pass, and also their points card.
One card for multiple purposes.
Neera entered the door with much anxiety.
The administrative staff at the front door was an old man. When he sensed someone approaching, he didn’t evenraise his head, and said coldly: “Card.”
She quickly complied and held out her gold badge.
Her voice was calm, just like everyone else. “Credit for 100,000 points.”
In the Alliance, gold and purple-gold badges can be used for credit.
The gold card is worth 100,000 credits at a time, while the purple-gold card is worth 300,000 credits at a time. novelbin
The old man didn’t think about it too much, swiped the card, and gave it back to her.
Then, just as she was about to walk in, the old man suddenly yelled: “No, wait!”
Neera had her back facing him, her skin went numb.
Oh no, did he manage to clock her?
Sure enough, the next second, the old man stopped her in her tracks, stared at her face carefully, and suddenlywidened his eyes.
“Ms. Garcia, is that you? It must be you! Don’t think I wouldn’t recognize you just because you’re wearing alarge face mask!”
Afraid that his shouting voice would attract the attention of many, Neera quickly lowered her head and admittedin a low voice. “Yes yes, it’s me. Can you lower down your voice, Grandpa Dirk…”
The old man who was just referred to as Grandpa Dirk suddenly laughed, completely different from the coldnesshe possessed earlier.
“So it is you! I’m telling you, I’m never wrong. The voice I heard sounded exactly like you! You little girl, afterleaving for so long, you’ve finally decided to come back, huh?”
Neera had a headache and wanted to laugh at the same time. “Yes, I’ve missed coming back to study here. I’vemissed you too, of course.”
Grandpa Dirk blew his beard as he didn’t buy it. “Stop pulling my leg! In the Alliance, you don’t miss anyoneelse except for your medical books, don’t think I don’t know that!”
Neera immediately denied it. “Who said so! I missed you so much that I even brought you the finest tea! Do youactually miss me too? If not, then forget about it.”
She had done her homework before coming to the island. She had thought of every way she could to sneak in.
Sure enough, when Grandpa Dirk heard this, his eyes lit up.
“You even brought me a gift? Of course I want it! Let me see it!”
Neera raised her eyebrows with pleasure, and passed him the gift box in her hands.
Speaking of which, she had become acquainted with this old man because of tea.
He was addicted to tea, and happened to know a thing or two about tea culture. It was through this that theybecame friends.
“Grandpa Dirk, I had specifically selected the finest tea brick for you. I’ve brought it specially from my country.It’s very valuable and the quality is superb.”
Grandpa Dirk took a look inside the gift box, already feeling greedy, and accepted it wholeheartedly.
“I guess you really did miss me.”
“Of course, you’ve treated me so well, I definitely missed you a lot.”
Neera was trying her best to flatter him in the most subtle way, coaxed him and made a few jokes.
“Please drink this tea slowly, Grandpa Dirk, and remember to help me keep count! I have some urgent matters,I’ll head in first.”
She was prepared to sneak in.
But just as she was about to take a step, she was stopped yet again.
Grandpa Dirk held the tea in one hand, and stopped her with the other, his expression changed again.
“You cannot go in!”
Neera felt another headache coming along. “Why? Why can the others go in, but I can’t?”
Grandpa Dirk pursed his lips. “It’s not that I don’t want to let you in, but the President had already made a strictorder to not let you claim any more credits. If you really want to, you have to clear your outstanding debts first.”
Neera was dumbfounded. “Really? Are you for real?”
