She repeatedly told herself in her heart that she must prove herself, must become an excellent female assassin, she must earn a lot of money. More and more money… She wanted to wear that pink dress to see her master, she must, she must…
“Excuse me…” Mimi sobbed, pulling out an ID card from her pocket, never daring to look up at the man before her. She lacked the courage, but for her master, she was willing to abandon her dignity.
“Could, could… could you lend me twenty thousand?” Her head drooped lower and lower. “I’ll pledge my ID card to you, exchange our addresses, phone numbers, names… as long as you lend me twenty thousand…”
Gu Feiyang didn’t hesitate and pulled out a stack of bills. “Take your ID card back.”
Money… no need to pay back. “Gu Feiyang tightened his sword-like eyebrows, anxiously staring at the tear-filled small face. She began to feel his voice was familiar, as if she had heard it somewhere before. However, she still couldn’t muster the courage to look up and meet his gaze… The look cast might be one of pity or mockery, but no matter what kind of gaze it was, she didn’t have the courage to face it. “Wuwuwu…” She stretched out her trembling little hand, slowly taking the stack of bills, and at that moment, she was moved to tears. “Please give me your contact information and your full name…” “No need.” His heart was tangled, painfully aching in a way he had never experienced before. “No… I insist, please leave me my last bit of dignity, I beg you, please give me a way to contact you.” He stared at her without blinking, slowly pulling out a business card from his pocket. She took the card, put it in her purse, and bowed to him repeatedly, “Thank you, thank you! I might take a long time to be able to pay you back, but please rest assured, one day, I will return the money with interest, I definitely will!” Gu Feiyang suppressed the reluctance and heartache churning inside him, looking at her thoughtfully. He saw her face wet with tears, and suddenly turned around, rushing into a clothing store. Through the display window, Gu Feiyang watched her frantically throwing money on the counter, followed by a credit card, and some cash from her pocket.
