Princess is Glamorous in Modern Day Novel - Chapter 957
Chapter 957: Untitled
Xia Wanyuan turned around. Not far away stood a thin and small youth who looked to be no more than fifteen years old.
Xia Wanyuan had always had the habit of keeping cash in her bag, so she took out a hundred yuan and handed it to the young man. The young man reached out to take it, but he had no intention of leaving. He still stood on the spot and looked at Xia Wanyuan carefully.
“What’s wrong?” Xia Wanyuan asked softly.
“Sister, can you lend me half a million?” The young man bit his lip, his eyes dim.
“Hey, girl, don’t believe him. I know this child. His family lives in that neighborhood. The price of the house there is 100,000 yuan per square meter, but there’s no market for it. His father works in the Qing University canteen. I heard from his father that this child likes to go online. Don’t be deceived by him.” The old man at the stall saw that Xia Wanyuan had taken out a hundred yuan, afraid that she would be too kind and be deceived.
“No, I’ll pay you back.” The young man clenched his fists and lowered his head. His voice was suppressed.
“Five hundred thousand, how are you going to return it? Miss, ignore him. His father said that this child is mentally ill. He’s squatting at the door every day to borrow money from others. What’s the use of a child like him taking so much money?”
The young man seemed to be unable to endure such humiliation. He gritted his teeth tightly, and his face was pale from the cold. He looked up at Xia Wanyuan. He knew that Xia Wanyuan and the man beside her were very rich.
They were his last hope.
“Get in. It’s so cold.” Touching Xia Wanyuan’s cold hand, Jun Shiling pulled her into the car.
…
Seeing the car door close, the young man turned around and left sadly.
After so many days, he was already used to such a scene. After all, who would lend 500,000 yuan to a stranger like him for no reason?
“Wait.” Xia Wanyuan’s voice sounded behind him.
The young man turned around in surprise and met Xia Wanyuan’s cold eyes.
Xia Wanyuan handed him a check. “There’s six hundred thousand in here.”
The young man took it, his eyes filled with disbelief. “I’ll pay you back.”
“Okay.” Xia Wanyuan nodded and closed the car window.
The young man watched Xia Wanyuan’s car gradually leave his sight. Then, he looked down at the check in his hand and suddenly ran quickly with an excited smile on his face.
The stall owner was dumbfounded. “How can this be? How can there be such a stupid rich person?”
In the car, Jun Shiling stroked Xia Wanyuan’s head. “Madam, you’re doing one good deed every day?”
“You can tell, right? That child doesn’t look like a liar.” The person who was clearly not poor in others’ mouths was actually covered in reeds. Looking at the bulging clothes, they couldn’t even be considered a cotton shirt. No wonder he looked so cold even though he was wearing thick clothes.
Jun Shiling did not comment. He was not a sympathetic person, but Xia Wanyuan was.
On the other side of the city, the slender young man took out the money, left a hundred-dollar bill in his pocket, and deposited the rest into a bank card.
After leaving the bank, the young man went to the butcher market and bought an extremely sharp knife used to kill pigs.
The next morning, just as Xia Wanyuan arrived at the Qing Gate, she saw police cars coming and going. The surrounding people were discussing.
“It’s said that the child ran away after killing his father. The police searched all night but couldn’t find him.”
“How much hatred does he have? I heard that he stabbed him more than two hundred times. When he carried him out, he didn’t even look human anymore. Aiyo.”
“Sigh, don’t look at that Old Li’s usually honest appearance. I heard from my nephew who’s a police officer that that person is very domineering at home. His wife was crippled by him. That child usually suffers a lot of beatings. He probably can’t take it anymore. Sigh, he has a hard life.”
Hearing everyone’s discussion, Xia Wanyuan inexplicably thought of the arrogant youth yesterday. She shook off the thoughts in her mind and walked into the school.
After the morning meeting, when Xia Wanyuan left the school gate, the police car had already left. It was said that there was no trace of the young man.
At this moment, on the sea, the young man hiding on the deck of the cargo ship sensed the salty smell outside and finally heaved a sigh of relief. He had already escaped from China.
Thinking of his mother with a broken arm, the young man secretly wiped his tears.
However, he had already ended that beast with his own hands. The house left behind by the beast belonged to his mother, and he had left six hundred thousand yuan in cash for her. According to his mother’s thriftiness, the rest of her life would not be worse than now.
The young man looked through the deck and secretly looked at the blue sky outside. He thought to himself that he would bring his mother over when he earned money overseas.
However, he, who was below deck, did not know that this cargo ship was actually a long-term human trafficking business in the name of delivery.
Countless Chinese people in the cabin who were dreaming of getting rich did not know what kind of purgatory they would be brought to.
On the deck, Jayce was on the phone respectfully with Yu Qian.
“King, we brought a boat of people from China. We’ll be in Continent F the day after tomorrow.”
“Mm.” Yu Qian looked at the moving creatures under the microscope and listened to Jayce’s report. “Bring the younger ones back for me to experiment on. Pack the rest and sell them to the sea sharks.”
“Yes!” Jayce replied respectfully.
“Did you bring back the video I asked you to bring?” After destroying the specimen on the loading platform, Yu Qian stood up and took off his gloves.
“Yes, I brought back all of Xia Wanyuan’s videos and lessons.”
“Mm.” Yu Qian did not say anything else and hung up.
Jayce looked at the various films in the box in confusion. He had never been able to guess Yu Qian’s thoughts.
]After returning from China, Yu Qian would watch Xia Wanyuan’s videos and listen to her albums occasionally.
Jayce had thought that King had taken a liking to this beautiful Chinese woman, but later on, all the signs showed that King was not someone who would have romantic feelings.
There was only emptiness and coldness in his eyes, without any warmth.

In the country,
The Chinese Literature Exchange was still held in the afternoon. When Xia Wanyuan entered, she could clearly feel that the hostility towards her had deepened.
Xia Wanyuan raised an eyebrow. I don’t think I did anything? Why did I attract hatred again?
What Xia Wanyuan did not know was that the delegation from Nancheng University had originally wanted to use the school’s travel funds to book a hotel for herself. Unexpectedly, Qing University was located in the city center and was adjacent to Financial Street. The surrounding hotels were terrifyingly expensive. If they stayed in a hotel far away, they would not be able to rush to the school for a meeting on time.
Everyone had no choice but to pay for the difference themselves. Otherwise, they could only stay in a guest house with a poor environment.

The literature teachers of Nancheng University had always prided themselves on being virtuous and was usually very thrifty. This time, they had spent thousands of yuan to book a hotel for no reason. Everyone blamed all of this on Xia Wanyuan. When they saw her, they thought of the thousands of yuan they had wasted.
Looking at the bag Xia Wanyuan was carrying, a knowledgeable teacher knew that this bag was worth many days of staying in a hotel. He felt unbalanced. “Teacher Xia, you’re really rich. This bag isn’t cheap, right?”
“This bag is a limited edition. It costs hundreds of thousands.” Before Xia Wanyuan could speak, a teacher had already answered for her.
“Yo, so rich. I wonder how much you’ve contributed to the school?” Lin Yu looked at Xia Wanyuan in disgust. A bag cost hundreds of thousands. There were so many poor people in China. This bag was enough to feed others for many years.

“Of course I have money. As for my contribution to the school, Teacher Lin, you reminded me.” Xia Wanyuan glanced at Lin Yu and smiled. She looked at Principal Yang, who was standing at the side. “Principal, the Jun family donated five billion this year.”
