Ye Xin frowned.
“I’m being too much?”
“Heh. So now I’m the one who’s gone too far?”
“I don’t want to waste my breath arguing with you. If I don’t see the money in my bank account by 2:30 this afternoon, just wait and see what happens!”
With that, she paused the video on Gu Nan’s company’s website. All she had to do was tap Send, and everyone would be able to see the video.
Then she took a screenshot and sent it to Gu Nan.
She could already imagine how devastated he would be when he saw it.
Although Gu Nan’s father also ran a company, it was very small and had been on the verge of bankruptcy for the past two years.
Gu Nan had nowhere else to go. He had to keep his job at his current company.
Therefore, Ye Xin wasn’t worried that he would try anything funny.
Less than a minute later, Gu Nan called.
This time, his tone was much softer.
“Xinxin, listen. We thought you wanted cash, so we withdrew the money. Now you’re asking us to transfer it instead. Aren’t you making things difficult for us?”
“How about this? Just like we agreed before, we’ll meet you in the underground parking garage at 3 p.m. We’ll give you everything there. How’s that?”
Ye Xin let out a cold laugh.
“Who told you to withdraw it? Go deposit it back.”
Without another word, Ye Xin hung up and blocked Gu Nan’s number.
She rode her electric scooter home.
Just then, her phone rang.
It was the truck driver delivering her daily necessities.
Ye Xin gave him the warehouse’s location, then turned her scooter around and headed there.
The truck driver helped unload the goods and then left.
Ye Xin entered the warehouse and carefully inspected it again.
She made sure that aside from the security cameras she had installed herself, there were no other surveillance devices.
Then she began frantically transferring everything into her spatial storage.
Pile after pile of daily necessities disappeared into her space.
A moment later, a voice sounded in her mind:
“The goods transferred this time are valued at 480,000 yuan. You have been awarded 480 points. Would you like to redeem them?”
Ye Xin answered without hesitation.
“Redeem!”
As an ordinary person, she had no way of obtaining weapons.
She had her eyes on the long knife in the Space Mall, as well as the AK assault rifle.
Thinking about the AK assault rifle inevitably reminded her of someone—
Bai Muran.
He had been a special forces soldier.
In her previous life, he was seriously injured while carrying out a mission and nearly got bitten to death by zombies.
Ye Xin had saved him from the zombies.
He taught Ye Xin how to use a gun.
Although her shooting skills were still terrible, that was mainly because she hadn’t had enough bullets to practice with in her previous life.
He had also taught her how to improve her physical strength and trained her in various close-combat techniques.
It was precisely because of these skills that Ye Xin had managed to survive for six years in that brutal environment.
That man had promised to protect her for the rest of his life.
Yet during one mission, he never came back.
Remembering this, Ye Xin shook her head and forced the thoughts out of her mind.
She got back on her scooter and headed home.
Su Jing was at Ye Xin’s apartment playing with Xuanxuan.
When she saw Ye Xin return, she quickly handed her a towel.
She complained,
“It’s so hot, yet you’re still running around outside every day. Aren’t you afraid of getting heatstroke?”
Then Su Jing sighed.
“Ugh! School is about to start. With weather this awful, I don’t even feel like leaving the house, yet I’ll have to squeeze into a classroom full of people every day.”
“God! Please have mercy on me!”
Ye Xin wiped the sweat from her face.
“Jingjing, how long has it been since you last went back to your hometown? Why don’t you take a month off and go home to see your parents?”
Su Jing rolled her eyes at her.
“You think everyone has it as easy as you? You have so much free time that you can leave whenever you want.”
“Once school starts, I’ll be teaching a graduating class. Ugh… I’m so miserable!”
Ye Xin knew she couldn’t convince her, so she tried another approach.
“Then at least ask Auntie and Uncle to come here and stay for a few days! You’re their only daughter. You hardly ever go home. They must miss you terribly!”
Su Jing shook her head.
“It’s more than a thousand kilometers away! And it’s so hot. How could I bear to make them travel all that way? I’ll go back during the National Day holiday.”
Ye Xin secretly sighed.
Su Jing refused to change the course of her previous life.
She also refused to break up with Jiang Chao.
And somehow, Ye Xin had ended up living in this exact apartment again.
Could it be that nothing from her previous life could really be changed?
Just then, Liu Ying called.
“Ye Xin, we went and deposited the money again, but there’s 100,000 yuan that we couldn’t deposit. The deposit machine simply won’t accept it.”
“How about this? I’ll transfer 900,000 yuan to your bank account, and you can come to the underground parking garage to collect the remaining 100,000.”
How could Ye Xin not know what Liu Ying was plotting?
But she suddenly smiled and readily agreed.
“Okay! Transfer the 900,000 yuan first.”
Less than five minutes later, Ye Xin received a text message:
“Your savings account ending in 2587 received a deposit of RMB 900,000 on August 25 at 1:25 p.m. Current balance: RMB 1,881,451.87.”
Ye Xin smiled.
We’ll see who gets the last laugh.
Jiang Chao wasn’t home, so Ye Xin invited Su Jing to stay for lunch.
After lunch, Ye Xin didn’t even have time to put her son down for a nap.
She hurried out.
She had to arrive at the meeting place ahead of time.
Only then could she make sure that everything remained under her control.
Ye Xin looked at herself in the mirror—fair skin, a beautiful figure, rosy lips, and pearly white teeth—and couldn’t help thinking:
Fortunately, even after becoming a full-time housewife, she’d never stopped taking care of herself!
But when a man cheats, it has very little to do with your appearance or figure.
It only shows how rotten he is.
She had trusted Gu Nan far too much before.
This time, she would never trust anyone again!
Ye Xin didn’t ride her electric scooter. Instead, she called a taxi.
When she arrived near Gu Nan’s company, she carefully observed her surroundings several times.
Only after confirming that everything was clear did she pay the driver and get out, then quickly slipped into the underground parking garage.
She found a hiding spot and quietly waited for the scumbag couple to arrive.
Ye Xin waited for only fifteen minutes before she saw Gu Nan and Liu Ying enter through the parking garage entrance.
Five burly men followed behind them.
Under Gu Nan’s instructions, the five men hid in different dark corners near the various exits.
It looked like they were there to prevent Ye Xin from escaping.
Ye Xin smiled faintly.
She quietly approached the man hiding closest to her.
The combat techniques she had learned in her previous life were finally being put to use for the first time.
Using the parked cars as cover, Ye Xin took less than ten minutes to deal with all five men without making the slightest sound.
Once all five men were unconscious on the ground, Ye Xin searched them and took everything valuable they were carrying.
They had chosen to help the villains, so they could go settle the score with Gu Nan themselves!
Meanwhile, Liu Ying was still holding onto Gu Nan’s arm.
“Do you think that woman will actually dare to come? What if she doesn’t?”
Gu Nan wasn’t entirely sure himself, but he forced himself to sound confident.
“She’ll definitely come! That woman hasn’t worked for ten years, and she has a child to raise. No one will hire her if she tries to find a job now. There’s no way she’ll be willing to give up that 100,000 yuan.”
Liu Ying nodded.
“Exactly! You’re so smart, honey! This time, we’ll make her spit out every bit of the money she took from us, and then we’ll buy our new house.”
“Oh, right. Once we’re done dealing with her, we’ll move into your family’s house. The landlord keeps urging us to move out!”
Gu Nan wrapped an arm around her waist.
“Whatever you say. Call her and ask when she’s coming.”
Ye Xin secretly smiled.
So they sold the house! They really went all out.
That was even better.
In one month, the devastating storms would arrive.
She wondered how they were going to survive then.
Ye Xin calmly walked up to Gu Nan.
“No need to call me. I’m already here. Have you prepared the money?”
