Although he was no longer entirely unfamiliar with this world, there were still many things he didn't understand.
Soon, Zhou Hong found a suitable bank outside.
"Hello, help me withdraw seven stacks of money," Zhou Hong said to the counter staff. The ATM could only dispense two stacks at a time, so Zhou Hong came to the counter.
"Seven stacks, how much is that?" the bank teller asked, confused.
"I don't know exactly, but it's one stack. The self-service machine only dispenses two stacks."
The teller understood and smiled, "One stack is ten thousand yuan, so you want to withdraw seventy thousand, right."
"Yes."
Soon, Zhou Hong withdrew seventy thousand yuan.
After leaving the bank, Zhou Hong found a restaurant on the street, ordered a table full of dishes for himself, and began to eat lunch.
"I didn't expect the delicacies on Earth to be quite good," Zhou Hong said with a smile while eating a sour fish dish.
"Boss, bring me a jar of wine," Zhou Hong shouted.
"How much is a jar of wine?" the server asked doubtfully.
"Whatever the amount, just bring it first."
"Then I'll bring you two bottles of Maotai first."
"Okay."
A few minutes later, the server brought two bottles of white wine.
Zhou Hong bit open the cap and ate it with rice, feeling very satisfied.
After forty to fifty minutes, Zhou Hong finished eating.
"Boss, the bill," Zhou Hong shouted.
"Hello, your total is five thousand six hundred and eighty."
Zhou Hong felt it was a bit expensive. At this rate, one stack of money could only last for two meals.
Zhou Hong didn't know that the restaurant he entered was a rather high-end establishment, and he had ordered seven or eight dishes along with two bottles of good wine, hence the bill of over five thousand six hundred.
After settling the bill, Zhou Hong walked out of the restaurant, preparing to return to the university.
However, at that moment, Zhou Hong suddenly saw a familiar figure on the street ahead. The person was walking out of a pharmacy. Su Dan Novel Network.
"Huh, isn't that the beautiful teacher from this morning? Why is she coming out of the pharmacy, is she buying medicine?" Zhou Hong wondered to himself.
"Teacher Yang," Zhou Hong quickly went up to greet her.
"It's you." The beautiful teacher's face showed a hint of rejection upon seeing Zhou Hong.
"Yes, teacher, are you buying medicine? What kind of medicine are you buying?" Zhou Hong asked, puzzled.
"It's none of your business." The beautiful teacher turned and walked away. She had a very bad impression of Zhou Hong, thinking he was a hooligan.
"Teacher, do you still think I was flirting with you this morning?" Zhou Hong asked, feeling a little wronged.
However, the beautiful teacher ignored Zhou Hong and quickened her pace, holding the medicine as she left. As she walked, she kept one hand on her stomach, with a slight expression of pain on her face.
"Alas!" Zhou Hong sighed.
"Screech…!" Just then, a Ferrari drove over. As it passed by the beautiful teacher, it suddenly braked and stopped, blocking her path.
"Yang Xi, where are you going? Want a ride in my Ferrari?" The window of the Ferrari rolled down, and a young man said with a lecherous expression.
The beautiful teacher ignored the young man and walked around him. However, the young man immediately reversed the Ferrari and blocked her again.
"Yang Xi, don't be ungrateful. My patience is limited. It's your honor that I, from a humble background, fancy you. Don't force me to do something worse than an animal. In Jinzhou City, I have the power to deal with you. I heard your mother is seriously ill and you desperately need money. At a time like this, you're still pretending to be pure in front of me. With your meager salary, can you afford your mother's medical treatment? If you're sensible, get into my Ferrari, and I'll cover your mother's medical expenses from now on. Otherwise, you'll regret it, and neither of us will be happy." The young man in the Ferrari warned.
"Chu Yang, why can't you leave me alone?" the beautiful teacher pleaded, her eyes seeming to well up with tears. Her life was already difficult enough, and now she was ill and couldn't afford to go to a big hospital, so she could only buy some painkillers from the pharmacy to save money for her mother's treatment. Yet now, she was being harassed by a rich young master.
Although her mother's illness required money, she could endure it and would not sell her body. This rich young master was merely looking at her looks and wanted to toy with her body.
"Hahaha, Yang Xi, stop acting so pure. Perhaps your body has already been played with by other men. Can't you see that you actually desire me and are deliberately pretending to be pure in front of me, making it seem difficult to get you, just so I'll cherish you? Am I wrong? I'm too familiar with this routine," the young man said arrogantly.
"I'm sorry, you're thinking too much. Please don't block me again, or I'll call the police."
"Hahaha, naive. Go ahead and call. Don't just call the police, even if you report to the criminal investigation bureau, I have connections." The young man seemed utterly unconcerned.
Yang Xi's eyes reddened slightly, and she seemed to be in great pain. She already had a pile of worries at home, and now she had to encounter such a scumbag. She felt her life was a mess. Why could others live so freely, while she lived so arduously? To achieve success, she took the college entrance exam early at fourteen, entered a key university, and then in just a few years, completed her postgraduate studies, becoming the youngest university teacher at the age of twenty-two. She had originally wanted to enter the workforce sooner to alleviate her family's hardships, but reality had dealt her a heavy blow. She still couldn't change her family's poverty, and her life was still a mess.
Did she really have no choice but to sell her body to achieve happiness?
"Wuwuwu!" Yang Xi felt incredibly heartbroken and wronged. She squatted on the ground in the street, hugged her knees, and cried bitterly. Passersby looked on with apparent sympathy but could do nothing. There were too many suffering people in this world; who wasn't bearing their burdens silently?
"Go to hell, you bitch! What are you crying for, pretending to be pitiful here?" The young man in the Ferrari, seeing Yang Xi squatting on the ground crying, immediately cursed impatiently. In his eyes, Yang Xi was just a low-class woman. Although she was beautiful and had a great figure, she was only fit to be played with by rich men. He had never encountered someone so "low-grade" who refused to let him have his way and pretended to be pure, so he was furious.
At this moment, Zhou Hong stood about twenty meters away. His brow was furrowed, and a surge of anger filled his heart. This bastard dared to bully his teacher on the street. In Zhou Hong's view, teachers deserved even more respect than one's own parents.
Without a second word, Zhou Hong immediately walked over.
"Teacher, don't be afraid, I'm here," Zhou Hong said to comfort her.
Yang Xi looked up. Fearing that Zhou Hong would offend this powerful young master because of her, she quickly said, "You should leave quickly. This has nothing to do with you."
"Teacher, I know you're afraid of implicating me, but please rest assured, when it comes to being a hooligan, I'm second to none," Zhou Hong said, a little annoyed. He had just decided not to be reckless anymore, but now he had to break his vow.
"Oh ho, here comes someone who isn't afraid of death, wanting to be a hero saving the beauty." The Ferrari youth let out a cold laugh, his eyes full of provocation as he looked at Zhou Hong.
