Chapter 169: Shopping (1/2)
”Oh, 25,000 dollars? Not bad. So, I wasn't alone case like my friends said.” Hannah's reaction was nowhere near what Alex would've expected it to be. She seemed to be completely fine with the idea of someone making 25,000 dollars a month after playing a game.
This made him curious. So much so that he couldn't help but ask.
”Sister, you said you earned money. How much do you earn?” he asked.
”Umm… I don't know. A couple of hundred thousand dollars. But that is just cause I am much higher in cultivation than you. So, if you reach my realm, you will make the same amount as well.” Hannah seemed to be completely unphased by what she had just said. Yet, those words were like bombs to Alex.
'Hundreds of thousands of dollars? Do people make that? How does a company like Deva Corp even survive after giving that much money away to just a single player?' Alex couldn't understand.
”What exactly do you do to earn so much money, sister?” he asked. Hannah seemed to be waiting for this question because when she was asked, she started giggling like a little child.
”Hehehe. I don't do anything actually. The money just comes flooding in.” Hannah was still giggling.
Alex didn't know what to say. 'Money comes in without doing anything?'. He was surprised to hear that. ”How exactly does that work, Sister?” he asked.
”Don't tell anyone the secret okay?” she said while moving in close to whisper, ” I got married.”
”What?” Alex instinctively shouted.
”Keep your voice down,” she said while making sure so one heard her.
Alex hurriedly quieted down. ”What do you mean you got married? To whom? Do Uncle and Aunt know?” he asked.
”In the game, Silly. The game. I got married to someone in the game,” Hannah clarified.
”Oh,” Alex finally said in understanding. ”Who did you marry?” he asked.
”His name is Long Huan, he is really, really handsome, and he also turned out to be really rich,” Hannah said.
”Turned out to be?” Alex was confused.
”Yeah, I didn't know at first. He just randomly started talking to me and before we knew it, we were together most of the time. Soon after that, he asked me to marry him, and since it wouldn't hurt trying once before doing the real thing here, I married him.”
Hannah had a little blush on her checks that she tried to desperately get rid of, but it never went away.
”Do you like him, Sister?” he asked.
”Yes, of course. He's so sweet. Also, I didn't randomly get married to somebody I didn't think was worthy, okay? It was mutual liking. Either way, let's not talk about this anymore. It's too embarrassing to think about.”
