Chapter 75: Tang San Gifts Ning Rongrong a JK Uniform and Asks Her to Borrow Money to Buy a Kawasaki H2R
The thought of riding a Kawasaki H2R at 430 mph, outpacing even a Titled Douluo, thrilled Tang San. Picturing himself weaving through enemies with Xiao Wu clinging to him fueled his excitement. He searched the Blue Star Mall for the motorcycle, eyes lighting up at the sleek design identical to his past life's memory.
But the price—720,000 Gold Soul Coins—made him wince. "That's outrageous!" On Douluo Continent, one Gold Soul Coin sustained a commoner for a year, roughly equivalent to 1,000 to 10,000 Blue Star RMB. The H2R's markup was hundreds of times its Earth price.
The System Spirit chimed in, "Master, Blue Star Mall prices are fixed. If you lack funds, consider other items."
Tang San browsed further, intrigued by the mall's offerings: Bugatti Veyrons, Koenigseggs, Valkyrie helicopters, even weapons—all purchasable with Gold Soul Coins, except for anti-missile fighters and nuclear bombs, which required rare Douluo items like 100,000-year spirit bones or immortal herbs. A luxury cruise ship with missile systems caught his eye, requiring ten 10,000-year spirit bones and five million Gold Soul Coins. "Perfect for Sea God Island," he mused, but dismissed it as impractical for now. The H2R was his priority.
With only 30,000 Gold Soul Coins, Tang San needed a plan. "Robbing civilians is pointless—they're poor. But Ning Rongrong… she's loaded." As the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect's heiress, 720,000 coins might be trivial for her. To soften her up, he decided to gift her something first.
He searched the Blue Star Mall, selecting a pink JK uniform with stockings for 1,000 Gold Soul Coins. "This'll charm her," he thought, planning to borrow the H2R's cost after the gift. The system confirmed the purchase, adding the uniform to his Three Lives Three Worlds Moonlit Night pendant.
Tang San also bought a projector for 3,000 Gold Soul Coins, preloaded with movies for Bibi Dong to watch on Douluo's tech-less continent. "A spirit guide by Douluo standards," he grinned, imagining its allure.
Sneaking out, he spotted Xiao Wu and Hu Liena chatting on the playground. Using his Invisibility Step, he vanished and headed to Soto City's commercial street, where Ning Rongrong, as in the original novel, had sneaked off to eat instead of running laps.
Sensing her aura, Tang San found her in a high-end restaurant, with Flender covertly watching nearby. He entered, feigning surprise. "Tang San?" Ning Rongrong exclaimed, waving him over.
"Why'd you sneak out?" she asked as he sat.
"I'm not officially enrolled, so I'm free to roam," Tang San replied smoothly. "The cafeteria food was bad, so I came here to eat. Didn't expect to run into you."
Ning Rongrong laughed. "What a coincidence! I'll treat you to a feast." She ordered a lavish meal, and Tang San dug in, accustomed to Douluo's cuisine.
"Didn't Flender order you and Oscar to run twenty laps?" he asked casually.
"I'm not running," Ning Rongrong huffed, nibbling meat. "I'm exhausted, and the cafeteria food's awful. Besides, the dean's just a Soul Sage—he won't touch me."
Tang San hid his amusement, knowing Flender was nearby. "Let's not talk about that," Ning Rongrong continued. "I'm full. Want to shop in the commercial street?"
"Sure," Tang San agreed. As they left, he pulled the JK uniform from his pendant, its packaging pristine. Handing it to her, he said, "I found this dress browsing. I meant to give it to Xiao Wu, but it suits you better. Since you treated me, it's yours."
Ning Rongrong hesitated, then gasped at the uniform's cute pink design and stockings. "I've never seen such a beautiful dress! Where'd you get it?"
"Nearby, I think," Tang San lied, touching his nose. "It's the last one. Take it, Rongrong."
"Wow, it's gorgeous!" Ning Rongrong beamed, unwrapping it. "I won't refuse then." She nearly changed into it on the spot but tucked it away, glowing with joy. "You gave me such a lovely gift, Tang San. How can I repay you?"
Tang San scratched his head, feigning embarrassment. "It just suits you. But… could you lend me some Gold Soul Coins?"
"Gold Soul Coins?" Ning Rongrong blinked, expecting a different request. Smiling, she said, "Easy. How many do you need?"
Tang San hesitated, then said, "Seven hundred and twenty thousand."
Ning Rongrong's eyes widened. "That much?" She paused, calculating. As the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect's heiress, she had access to vast wealth, but such a sum required a bank visit. "I don't carry that much, but I can get it from a bank in Soto City. What's it for?"
"A special spirit guide," Tang San said vaguely, smiling. "It'll help us a lot. I'll pay you back… eventually."
Ning Rongrong laughed. "No need to pay me back. You're my friend, and this gift is amazing. Let's go to the bank."
As they headed off, Flender, hidden nearby, frowned. "What's Tang San up to, borrowing that much? And that dress… it's not from Douluo." His suspicions about Tang San deepened.
…
Back at Shrek, Xiao Wu and Hu Liena's chat grew lively. "Little Fox, you didn't answer—who's Dong'er?" Xiao Wu pressed.
Hu Liena dodged again. "It's not my place to say. Ask Tang San." Her mind raced, still reeling from Tang San's casual "Sister Dong'er" remark.
Zhu Zhuqing, nearby, watched silently, her thoughts on Tang San's gift plan. "He's winning Ning Rongrong over… but why Dong'er?" Her jealousy simmered.
Tang Hao, in the shadows, gripped his hammer. "Tang San's scheming something big with this money and that 'Dong'er' name. I need to watch closer."
Tang San, walking with Ning Rongrong, smirked inwardly. The JK uniform had softened her, and the H2R was within reach. With Infinite Steal, Rasengan, and the looming arrival of Bibi Dong, his Shura Field was heating up, setting the stage for Yu Xiaogang's downfall.
