Another World: That's too much. I have to start from scratch to get the contribution value.

Chapter 87 Debt-free... can't be easy

When she met Pu Huai, Ji Zhenzhen's expression became nervous for a moment.

"Um, um, my voice was a little loud just now. Captain, I didn't wake you up, did I?"

She stood beside Anjiu with a wry smile, poking her lower back with her fingers, indicating that she should say something.

An Jiu secretly took a deep breath.

As luck would have it, Ji Zhenzhen just poked the wound on her waist and ribs. She moved forward a small step unnoticeably to avoid it, and when she looked up again, she bumped into a line of sight.

"..."

Influenced by Ji Zhenzhen, An Jiu's body also became a little stiff.

"Ahem...Captain Pu is here, come in and sit down." Grandma An propped herself up and sat up, waving eagerly at Pu Huai.

He stood by the door without moving: "You don't have to come down, I have something to talk to Ji Zhenzhen about."

"Ah? Looking for me?" Ji Zhenzhen pointed at her nose with a twisted expression, "What's the matter, Captain?"

"The door is broken, come and fix it."

Pu Huai said this and turned back.

At this point, the tense atmosphere finally dissipated.

"The captain asked me to fix the door," Ji Zhenzhen packed up her tools, "Anjiu, do you want to come with us? And give me a hand, pass me some tools or something."

It's just repairing a door, it's not that high, I can just bend over and get something, why would I need a helper...

An Jiu saw through her intentions, but did not expose her. Instead, he said, "That's fine. I also have to give back my contribution points to Captain Pu."

Going together can avoid the embarrassment of a single man and a single woman being alone in a room.

Ji Zhenzhen was obviously delighted. She threw the tool bag over her shoulder, called her Xiaojiu affectionately, and asked, "What's the contribution value?"

"Last time I was sick and didn't have contribution points to see a doctor, so grandma went to borrow some from Captain Pu."

"Tsk tsk, it turns out the captain has this side."

The two families lived next door to each other, very close to each other. After saying this, Ji Zhenzhen didn't dare to say anything more, for fear of being heard by the captain.

The two walked in one after the other.

Pu Huai had a strong presence. He leaned against the window, looking outside with a leisurely and indifferent expression. It was not until the second glance that An Jiu noticed that there was an extra single sofa in the room.

And Ji Zhenzhen never raised her head since she entered the room.

She spoke quickly and urgently: "Captain, what's wrong with the door? Forget it, I'll check it all for you. Xiaojiu, help me get the tools!"

"...Oh." Anjiu stood in a place where he would not be in the way, carrying the tool bag, and concentrated on handing the tools without looking around.

Ji Zhenzhen looks carefree, but she is quite good at repairing things and has good driving skills. She is a girl with strong hands-on ability.

She acted kindly, so Anjiu naturally wanted to make friends with her.

The two people squatting on the ground were gradually shrouded by a shadow, and An Jiu clearly saw Ji Zhenzhen shudder.

Ji Zhenzhen: What should I do? The captain is coming! What is he doing here? !

Anjiu: Maybe, to supervise your work?

Ji Zhenzhen: ...

Ji Zhenzhen: He doesn’t have to do that. I’m not collecting any contribution points from him!

Pu Huai's low voice fell from above his head——

"Anjiu."

"..." An Jiu stood up neatly: "Captain Pu."

Pu Huai was standing not far behind her. She looked straight at him as usual, but what she saw were two bulging... pectoral muscles.

Perhaps he felt too hot, so he unbuttoned one or two buttons on his collar, leaving it open to the left and right, revealing a hint of spring scenery that made people want to look deeper.

Awkward……

An Jiu raised his chin without changing his expression, but met Pu Huai's gaze directly.

Her heart suddenly tightened.

I hope I won’t be discovered...I didn’t mean to do it.

Then he said calmly: "Captain Pu, what do you want to talk to me about?"

The alienation between Pu Huai's eyebrows seemed to be softened by the sun, "How much did you pay for the installation?"

After hearing this, Ji Zhenzhen's hands went weak and she almost dropped the tool.

She said hastily, "Captain! This is a job that Boss Zhang introduced to us, not something we approached Xiaojiu directly for! At worst, we can just do this job for free, and we'll return the 100 contribution points to Xiaojiu later!"

"That's not necessary..." An Jiu hesitated, "Because I paid Boss Zhang 200 for the installation fee."

"What?" Ji Zhenzhen jumped up and down. "We only got 100! Zhang didn't do anything, but he earned 100 more contribution points for nothing?!"

In the end, she summed it up in two words: "Swindler!"

Anjiu nodded in agreement.

Although I knew he would take the opportunity to make more money, I didn't expect him to take half of the profit. The middleman is really cruel.

Pu Huai said calmly: "Forget it this time. Come to me next time you encounter something similar."

"Right, right, right. It's profitable for everyone anyway. It's better to keep the money within the family and let our Captain Pu make the money—"

When meeting Pu Huai's cold eyes, Ji Zhenzhen suddenly realized that she had said the wrong thing, and stammered, "Well... that's not what I meant. What I meant was... Captain Pu knows a lot of people... well, well..."

"I understand." An Jiu nodded with a smile, "If Captain Pu doesn't mind, I may bother you more often in the future."

She put a little more force when pronouncing the word "often".

"Of course I don't mind. The captain has said so, so you can put your mind at ease from now on!" Ji Zhenzhen looked at Anjiu with great gratitude.

The spirit of selflessness shown by these small steps is comparable to that of Ji Zhenzhen's adoptive parents!

"Ji Zhenzhen! Keep your loud voice down a bit, the captain is still resting. If you wake him up, don't come back and cry to me!"

It was Jimo who came back carrying tools. Even if he lowered his voice, one could still hear his anger.

"Not only did you cry ugly, you even used the tissue I bought to wipe your nose! I won't give you any contribution points this time, so consider it as compensation to me!"

He noticed something out of the corner of his eye and turned his head to take a closer look. Behind the iron gate was Ji Zhenzhen's round face!

Later, it was Anjiu, and later, the captain sat on the sofa and looked at him coldly.

Ji Mo's eyes went dark, and the word "despair" made his head dizzy.

He couldn't help but growl in a low voice: "Ji Zhenzhen! Get back here and work!"

"Here it comes!" Ji Zhenzhen packed up the tools at lightning speed, shook the door to show the captain that it was completely repaired, and then winked at Anjiu.

Come on, keep up!

"..."

An Jiu hesitated for a moment, and Ji Zhenzhen reacted immediately, "Ji Mo, you go first - hey, don't pull me! I still have to accompany Xiao Jiu!"

But no matter what she said, Jimo took her away without mercy.

Now there were only her and Pu Huai left in the room.

In order to avoid awkwardness if the conversation lasted too long, Anjiu turned around and moved closer.

"Captain Pu."

Pu Huai looked up at her with a calm expression.

But he was sitting, Anjiu was taller than him, and his peripheral vision was filled with increasingly wide collars.

"...!"

An Jiu could only focus all his attention on his eyes, ignoring everything else, and said word by word as if reciting a script: "Thank you for lending grandma the 300 contribution points last time. If it weren't for you, I might not have woken up so quickly... I have some extra money in my hand now, so I'll pay you back first."

She opened her virtual watch and prepared to scan over.

Pu Huai hummed lightly.

After transferring the money, Anjiu expressed his gratitude again and marched away.
