"Bo Wang!" Bo's Father called out softly. "Your aunt, she…"
Bo Wang couldn't be bothered to listen to his father's excuses for his beloved wife. He turned sideways, looking at Ning Xi with a polite yet distant expression, and asked, "Do you want cash? Or an online transfer?"
Ning Xi replied softly, "Either is fine."
"How much do I owe you in total?" Bo Wang asked.
Ning Xi opened the memo on her phone and held the screen right in front of Bo Wang's eyes.
"A total of one hundred million, ten thousand, eight hundred, and eighty yuan."
Bo's Father was taken aback, thinking to himself: My son really knows how to spend money.
But could he really have spent over a hundred million in less than 48 hours of being missing?
"Bo Wang, who is this?"
Bo Wang replied coldly, "My creditor."
Having navigated the business world for decades, Bo's Father had long honed a sharp eye for judging people.
This young woman, with her picturesque features and clear eyes, didn't seem like the kind of deceitful woman who would trick someone into marriage.
So how did Bo Wang spend that hundred million?
"Bo Wang, since you and this young lady just got off the high-speed train, why don't we find a restaurant and talk over a meal?"
Ning Xi declined coldly, saying, "No need to be so polite."
Bo Wang retorted angrily, "Is Mr. Bo reluctant to part with a mere hundred million?"
Bo's Father cleared his throat and explained, "A hundred million is no small amount. You have to give me some time…"
Bo Wang let out a scornful laugh. "It seems that in Mr. Bo's heart, your own son's life isn't worth a hundred million!"
At the bustling exit of the station, such a large group gathered there only drew more onlookers.
Bo's Father, who always cared about his reputation, grew furious at Bo Wang's question and snapped, "Bo Wang, we'll talk about this at home!"
With a dark expression on his handsome face, Bo Wang strode away briskly.
Qin Chao hurried after Bo Wang, comforting him, "Young Master Bo, your father is right. A hundred million is no small amount. You have to give him some time."
Bo Wang snorted coldly.
Qin Chao then asked curiously, "Is that girl in the Taoist robe really your creditor?"
"If she's not my creditor, could she be my girlfriend?" Bo Wang retorted sarcastically. "My taste isn't that bad."
Qin Chao clicked his tongue a few times.
"Young Master Bo, you're really something."
Qin Chao gave a thumbs-up.
Regardless of Ning Xi's family background, her looks alone were undoubtedly at a celebrity level.
Bo Wang got into Qin Chao's sports car.
Just as Qin Chao was about to start the car, his gaze fell on Ning Xi in the rearview mirror.
"Huh… Young Master Bo, your creditor didn't follow you?"
Hearing this, Bo Wang turned to look back and indeed saw Ning Xi standing by the roadside, not having come over.
He opened the car door, got out again, and strode toward Ning Xi.
"What are you doing here?"
Ning Xi looked at Bo Wang, who was asking a question he already knew the answer to, and replied, "Waiting for a car."
"Aren't you coming with me to get the money?" Bo Wang asked.
Upon hearing this, Ning Xi answered very seriously, "I don't think your father will give you the money tonight."
Bo Wang's thin lips pressed into a straight line.
Ning Xi suddenly remembered what her Master had once said: Only money you earn yourself feels secure to use.
She hadn't quite understood it before.
But tonight, seeing how Bo's Father treated Bo Wang, she seemed to grasp it a little.
If she had known earlier that Bo Wang was someone who relied on his parents, she wouldn't have asked for that hundred million!
Ning Xi said regretfully, "I just forgot to give you my bank account number. Wait a moment."
She took out a piece of paper and a pen, wrote down a string of numbers, and handed it to Bo Wang.
Bo Wang took the slip of paper, frowned, and asked, "Aren't you afraid I'll default on the debt?"
Ning Xi's almond-shaped eyes glimmered slightly as she said with a beaming smile, "No one in the world dares to owe me a debt."
"Beep beep…"
The ride-hailing car arrived.
"Passenger with the phone number ending in 1314?"
Ning Xi replied, "Yes."
Just as Ning Xi was about to open the car door, Bo Wang pressed his hand against it.
"What's your phone number?" Bo Wang looked at Ning Xi's face, which seemed to glow even under the streetlight, and said, "I'll send you a message after I transfer the money."
