Different from the sad and anxious mood she was in when Qiao Mu came to the Bar, now walking on the way back light-footedly, she felt very relaxed. With the cold wind blowing on her face, Qiao Mu tightened up her collar, took a sniff, and then she raised her hand to cover her chest to feel the excitement in her heart.
Qiao Mu did not go back to the hospital immediately. Instead, she found an ATM on the street. Looking around carefully to make sure n.o.body was around, she then took the golden back card out of the inside pocket of her overcoat as fast as she could.
There was a label written with six zeros on the reverse of the bank card. Inserting the card into the slot, Qiao Mu entered the pa.s.sword with her slightly quivering finger. She did not know how much money in the bank card exactly, but according to the words the old b.a.s.t.a.r.d had said, the money was enough to pay for her mother's operation fee.
"Oh my G.o.d. Five hundred thousand yuan!"
Qiao Mu was very excited and couldn't help but marvel, "The old b.a.s.t.a.r.d is so generous to give me so much money. Apart from paying for Mom's operation fee, there will still be some money left to pay my debt, though it is way much less to pay all the debt."
Staring at the string of zeros showed on the screen, Qiao Mu was so thrilled that she would jump up if she were not on the street. Err, wait! Qiao Mu rubbed her eyes and got closer to the screen of the ATM, counting carefully again how many zeros were there.
"What? I must have blurred vision. Hold on a second!"
Qiao Mu stretched out her index finger to count the number of zeros one by one. One, two...six. There were six zeros! Her legs trembled slightly and her mouth s.h.i.+vered too. She was breathing quickly and tried to calm herself while yelling inwardly, "Oh my G.o.d! It is not five hundred thousand yuan. It is five million!"
Five million! Qiao Mu had never seen this much money in her whole life. At this moment, she entirely went blank while sparks flew before her eyes after seeing the string of zeros. But soon, Qiao Mu had recovered from the astonishment and withdrew the bank card with her violently shaky hand and quickly put it into her pocket.
"Oh my G.o.d, the old b.a.s.t.a.r.d is so open-handed. He gives me five million to buy me. I have never known I am so valuable." Qiao Mu wiped away the beads of sweat on her forehead with her shaky hand.
Before, she was just a miserable person without even one penny on her, but now she had become a millionaire.
Carrying such a ma.s.sive sum of money, Qiao Mu had to be more careful. Her heart was beating so fast as if it was about to jump out of her chest. Her palm was covered with a thin layer of sweat while her heart appeared to be grasped by something and her chest heaved violently and rapidly.
Pressing her beating heart, Qiao Mu swallowed the saliva. She could not help cursing herself, "d.a.m.n it! Don't be so useless! Qiao Mu, you must calm down now. Otherwise, it might kill you if your heart continued to beat like this. It's only five million."
However, the beating speed of her heart did not slow down at all. Moreover, even her temples started to throb slightly.
After paying for her mother's operation expense, the rest of the money was enough to pay off the debt her late father owed. From then on, they would live a life having no debts at all, which was something she had never dared to think about before.
Qiao Mu was so thrilled that she even wanted to cry out at this moment. She even doubted that the old b.a.s.t.a.r.d had found out how much money her father owed. So, he gave her the exact amount of money to pay off debt.
Walking on the street, Qiao Mu did not know whether it was due to her mental state or not, but she felt people around her all looked at her with bad intentions.
"s.h.i.+t! Stop looking at me! I don't have any money." But soon, Qiao Mu realized how stupid she was to speak out these silly words. She must lose her mind because of the enormous excitement. She couldn't help but curse herself secretly," d.a.m.n it! Qiao Mu, did you get kicked in the head by a horse? What you said only gave yourself away! Did you want others to know you have a considerable amount of money with you?"
Qiao Mu shut her mouth quickly to prevent herself from saying something else. Then, she stopped a taxi. That was not something she would do before, but since she was a millionaire now, she did not need to save the money at this moment.
However, instead of sitting in the front pa.s.senger seat, Qiao Mu decided to sit at the back of the car considering the security. She took out her preowned large-screen phone that cost her three hundred yuan and took a photo of the driver's information plate.
Then, she leaned against the back of the front seat and waved her phone at the driver with a stern expression, saying," Hey, mister, don't ever think about doing any bad things. I have just taken a photo of your information and sent it to my friend. If I did not get home within half an hour, my friend would call the police."
The driver was speechless. He had met so many pa.s.sengers in his career, but it was the first time he had met someone so weird. Did this young girl have a mental disorder?
Qiao Mu did not pay attention to the look the driver had given to her. Her hand tightly covered on the place where the inside pocket of her overcoat was to make sure that the money would not be lost.
The taxi driver raised his head to look at her through the rearview mirror from time to time, finding Qiao Mu, whose face was red-cheeked, covered her chest tightly with her hand while her eyes kept checking around constantly. He thought Qiao Mu might run into danger, so he reminded her with kindness," Miss, do you need me to take you to the police station?"
Qiao Mu raised her head right away while wondering why they needed to go to the police station. To tell the policeman that she had asked one leader of gangdom to help her sell her organs and finally, she ended up signing a body-selling indenture with him? Thinking of this, Qiao Mu immediately waved her hand and gave him a hollow laugh, saying," No, thank you. Mister, please drive me home quickly. Fifteen minutes have pa.s.sed. Have you forgotten that if I were not at home within half an hour, you would be chased after by the policemen?"
The driver,"..."
The taxi parked steadily outside of the housing estate where Qiao Mu lived. After paying for the taxi fee, Qiao Mu dashed to her house. Confused, the driver looked at himself in the rearview mirror and touched his chin, "Look at the handsome face! Do I look like a bad person?"
Meanwhile, Qiao Mu hastened to take out her key to open the door, closed the door and locked it again without a break. Then, she leaned against the door, breathing heavily.
d.a.m.n it! It did not make any sense. When she owed others colossal debt, she was so sensitive that even a little noise could scared her as she thought that someone might come to collect the debt. But now she was a millionaire! Why did she still have a similar feeling? There must be something wrong!
Qiao Mu went into her room, took the contract out of the schoolbag and then fished out the bank card from her inside pocket. With her eyes half-closed, Qiao Mu felt mixed emotions. Five million yuan. She had sold herself to him.
Thinking about the whole day, it felt like she had been on a roller coaster of the emotion. She was on top of the world just now, but now she felt slightly upset.
Her eyes fell on the bottom of the contract and saw three beautiful words—the signature of Xi Muqiao who as the first party signed there.
"Hey, when did the old b.a.s.t.a.r.d sign the contract? Don't tell me that he had signed it before I went to the Bar? Xi Muqiao, Xi Muqiao..."
Qiao Mu murmured his name, again and again, frowning. It sounded so familiar that she almost doubted that she might hear the name before, but nothing came to her mind though she tried her best to recall her memory.
"Maybe the old b.a.s.t.a.r.d is a renowned gangdom's leader. I have definitely heard this name before."
Qiao Mu thought, "As an old saying goes, 'there are success stories in all professions'. Sometimes, you have to admit it. Now, look at him! He also has become famous and rich even as a gangster."
Qiao Mu carefully folded the contract and put it into a dark green small iron box in the drawer. And inadvertently, she saw a pink strawberry pink clip lying in the corner of the box.
With her eyes half-closed, a hint of sorrow flashed through her dark eyes. She picked the hair clip up and held it in her palm. Having stared at the hair clip for quite a long time, Qiao Mu slowly heaved a sigh and put it back to the box with caution.
More than ten years had pa.s.sed and now she returned to Jiang City where she spent her childhood. But she could not find the big brother in her memory anymore.
