Qin Huai thought the question he asked was quite crucial because he really didn’t understand An Youyou’s behavior logic, but Luo Jun felt that Qin Huai was missing the point entirely.
"What was the status you just mentioned about An Youyou?" Luo Jun asked.
"Currently awakening." Qin Huai replied.
Qin Huai thought this status was quite normal; many spirits are in this condition.
"The obsessions of the Three-legged Golden Toad are mostly related to money. Given their personality and way of transcending tribulation, their obsessions usually aren’t too outrageous, and the difficulty isn’t too high. Is An Youyou very short on money now?"
Qin Huai nodded: "She is quite short of money. Her family conditions in this life aren’t very good, her own abilities aren’t outstanding, and her obsession with making money is quite deep."
"Are there any other obsessions you can guess?"
"Want to live in a nice house?" Qin Huai wasn’t quite sure.
His impression of An Youyou was that this girl loved money, enjoyed making money, liked spending money, and liked to enjoy herself, wanting to eat well, drink well, wear well, and live well.
"Well, isn’t that simple, Chen Huihong, do you have any unrented apartments in the community?" Luo Jun began to cue Chen Huihong.
Chen Huihong was surprised to have a role in this situation, and thought for a moment: "I seem to have two left, a three-bedroom one and a one-bedroom one. The Three-legged Golden Toads are either stingy or spend lavishly. If An Youyou wants to live in a good house, she would probably want a big one, so let her live in the three-bedroom one."
"I’m contacting lawyers and charity institutions to arrange a few thousand bucks in monthly donations for her." Luo Jun nodded.
"I can offer her a free check-up package from our hospital." Qu Jing quietly raised a hand.
No, don’t you all not know who An Youyou is besides Chen Huihong? Does the Three-legged Golden Toad have such a good reputation and network in your spirit monster world? Helping to such an extent?
Qin Huai was completely confused.
Just as Qin Huai was baffled, the most normal spirit in the group, Cheng Gong, spoke up. ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ Novᴇ(l)Fɪre .ɴᴇt
By the way, Cheng Gong was the only one whose face wasn’t directly in focus because he was working on the computer.
Cheng Gong typed the last word, turned around, looked directly at the phone, his expression as usual, but with a hint of helplessness in his tone: "I can understand everyone wanting to help a fellow spirit, and that seeing a Three-legged Golden Toad fail transcending tribulation is rare and entertaining, but is this reasonable?"
Did you four just say a human word? What? All four of them aren’t human? Okay, never mind.
The response to Cheng Gong was the silence of the three spirits.
"I know sometimes good fortune falls from the sky but not . Typically, spirits have to rely on themselves to transcend tribulation. If you want to help An Youyou, you can’t help her this way. The reward for Qin Huai’s new main quest is An Youyou’s next dream. If you help her awaken early, what will Qin Huai do with one less recipe?"
Hearing Cheng Gong say this, the question marks over Qin Huai’s head were replaced with a big exclamation mark, making him suddenly feel energized.
Yeah, what if An Youyou awakened early and missed getting one more recipe?!
Cheng Gong’s case is evidence that waking up early only gives one recipe from the game system.
Of course, if An Youyou can awaken early, it certainly is a good thing.
But it’d be better if she could wake up with a few more recipes as well.
"Moreover, despite the differences among various spirit species, tribulation difficulty, personality, and abilities, there is one constant feature during tribulation. Excessive interference in another spirit’s tribulation can result in inability to succeed or cause the other’s failure, unless in rare special circumstances, we can mostly only lend a supportive hand."
"Are you sure you’re helping An Youyou transcend tribulation and not dragging her down further?"
"It’s true that the Three-legged Golden Toad loves money, but most of them are misers. The fact that An Youyou indulges rather than hoards during tribulation is definitely due to other factors."
"Providing money, housing, and material help seems like it aids in tribulation, but what if it drags her in deeper?"
"Is that not counterproductive?"
"Mr. Luo, I understand your earnest wish to help a fellow spirit, considering your years aren’t many either. But there’s no need to rush; second-life spirits still have memories. Even if you don’t see An Youyou awaken this lifetime, you can still watch after rebirth, no need to rush."
"Therefore, from my view, it’s best to let things proceed naturally."
"Master Qin, continue as you were with An Youyou. All you need to do is be warmer and pay a little more attention, without special treatment."
"Of course, this is just my opinion. If anyone has other viewpoints, they are welcome to share. With everyone in one group, more opinions and discussions can lead to better outcomes."
After Cheng Gong’s summary and report was completed, he smiled at everyone and turned back to type furiously at his computer, making a PPT.
Qin Huai spoke first: "I think Assistant Chen makes some sense. If we want to help An Youyou, we should get to know her better first. Mr. Luo, your idea of directed monetary donations is just too out there. An Youyou doesn’t have any serious illnesses, so how could anyone reasonably money to her?"
