Chapter 509: Chapter 509: This Is Why You’re Always Broke
Ji Hanyu’s face suddenly changed, and he hurriedly pushed away Ding, who was still focused on picking items.
Ding was caught off guard and fell down, looking bewildered. But when he saw Ji Hanyu pick up an expensive watch, he understood.
Indeed, the richer people are, the more they love money, and the richer they are, the more frugal they become.
This big boss, being so rich, why is he just like him, searching for treasures among the scrap?
Ding tentatively asked, "Mr. Ji, is this watch valuable?"
Judging by its delicate and classical style, but as for the brand, Ding couldn’t recognize it.
Ji Hanyu didn’t answer Ding’s question. He just wiped the watch with a stern expression. When he saw the engraving inside the watch after cleaning it.
The calm depths of Ji Hanyu’s eyes suddenly became turbulent.
After a long pause, Ji Hanyu finally put the watch in his pocket.
Suddenly...
"What are you doing?" Bai Haoxue, seeing Ji Hanyu squatting there for a long time, came over and patted him.
Ji Hanyu was startled and put the hand he was about to take out back into his pocket.
"Ji Hanyu..." Bai Haoxue scrutinized Ji Hanyu in confusion, wondering why he seemed so strange, "What’s up with you?"
Ji Hanyu: "Nothing’s up!"
"No way..." Bai Haoxue immediately morphed into Sherlock Holmes, "You look like you’re up to something."
Ji Hanyu said, "It might be seeing the laboratory and those reagent bottles Li Mingmo found, triggering some bad memories from the base."
"Oh, so that’s it..." Bai Haoxue held Ji Hanyu’s hand, "Then stop thinking about it. Let me take you for a walk."
Apart from the ruins ahead, the scenery on the mountaintop was nice, and the air was fresh.
Ji Hanyu nodded and held Bai Haoxue’s hand, leaving the ruins.
Xiao Bei picked up many bottles and jars, even pieces of broken glass, carefully preserving them.
Li Mingmo asked, "These things, they should have some use, right?"
Xiao Bei nodded: "Although I haven’t started testing formally, I’m quite certain that some of the viruses here have the same components as those in Ji Hanyu’s virus."
He had been studying the virus in Ji Hanyu’s body for years, and Xiao Bei could almost confirm some components without needing to go to the lab.
"That’s great," Li Mingmo said, "Even if there are hundreds or thousands of components, if we can tackle one, it’s better than none."
"Ding, you’re so useless, you’ve humiliated me completely," Li Mingmo couldn’t help but kick Ding, who was still seriously searching for treasures in that pile of stuff.
"What are you still looking for? Have I ever deprived you of food or clothing? You’re really embarrassing us all the way to your grandfather’s house."
Ding: "Boss, you’re the one who loves money the most; we brothers all learned from you."
Li Mingmo: "..."
Does he not care about his reputation?
Ding continued, "Besides, who complains about having too much money these days? Just now, your rich buddy was rummaging through things here! Boss, even the famous, incredibly wealthy Ji Hanyu bent down to pick up treasures!!! What reason do we have to complain??? Boss, if I may say something, perhaps this is why you’ve always been so poor."
Li Mingmo: "..."
Does it have to be so heart-piercing, buddy!
Wait a minute...
Li Mingmo’s expression changed: "What did you just say?"
Ding quickly buried his head and moved away, "I won’t say it again. If I do, you’ll hit me."
Li Mingmo: "..."
