Chapter 2, 300,000

Walking blindly in the bustling streets, I felt like a puppet that had lost its soul, with memories of the past with Mu Xi flashing rapidly through my mind

Later, he and I often discussed the difficulties in our studies together. My skills in mathematics and science were relatively weak, and he could solve many of the challenging problems I asked him about with just a glance. He never showed any signs of impatience with my numerous questions; each time, he would calmly explain the answer to me before throwing out an English problem for me to solve.

His performance in science subjects has always been outstanding, and achieving full marks is simply effortless for him. However, the only subject where I stand out in front of him is English. One day, he suddenly threw an English question in front of me, and I was somewhat surprised, looking at him in confusion. He merely said casually, "Which option should I choose?" After glancing at the question, I lightly wrote down a "C" with my pen. He looked at it and then asked, "Why did you choose C?"

Miss Qiao Man, may I speak with you privately

I was puzzled by her sudden excitement, and just as I was about to inquire about the reason, I noticed a man in a black suit and tie appearing behind her. I recognized him; he was the driver who had hit me before and offered to pay me. The car outside also belonged to him

Sitting in front of him, I could always feel the gazes coming from all directions, as well as the girls from other grades coming to our class to see him. Every morning, upon arrival, I would see many drinks placed on his desk, which he would always disdainfully throw into the corner trash can like garbage, including a large stack of love letters.

I looked at Mr. Jiang in disbelief, unable to accept that good fortune would simply fall from the sky. Yet he smiled at me, his eyes revealing an undeniable glimmer that suggested things were not as straightforward as they seemed

Until that moment, he presented me with a very simple question. Although I was puzzled, I helped him solve it. He merely smiled faintly and said, "You are really smart; be my girlfriend." His expression was as if he were speaking of something unrelated, so calm yet captivating. I responded mechanically, as if answering a question, with a "Yes."

Hello, Miss Qiao Man. He smiled warmly, and there was no trace of the disdain he had shown when he was giving money before

I remember that year in the first year of high school, Mu Xi entered the school with the top score in the city. Amidst the envious gazes of others, he sat in the seat behind me. At that time, it was almost impossible to walk anywhere without hearing girls discussing his name—Mu Xi

At that moment, my fate had already been rewritten

What are you here for? I asked, filled with hostility

He is not only outstanding in appearance and excellent in academic performance, but also the son of a high-ranking official in the city. With a cold demeanor that seems to disregard others and an arrogant attitude, he instantly became a prominent figure in the school

Originally, he was an arrogant young man, looking down on everything, while I only wanted to study earnestly. There seemed to be no intersection between us, but ever since that day when we encountered a difficult English problem, the distance between us gradually closed.

Manman, Mr. Jiang helped mother pay off the entire 300,000, I didn't expect you to know such a wealthy person

Perhaps this is what is called "equivalent exchange"

Does this car look familiar to you

The entire amount of 300,000 has been paid off

"Mom?" I called softly, and a middle-aged woman with a slightly plump figure ran out with a beaming smile, "Manman, my Manman..."

By the time I returned home, the sky had already darkened, but the black BMW parked at the entrance was exceptionally dazzling, radiating a bright silver light under the moonlight
