The Strongest Abandoned Son
Chapter 33: The Man Who Sells Counterfeit Drugs
Ning Qingxue heard Ye Mo call her Qingxue so casually while she also held onto Ye Mo's arm. At that moment, she even doubted if she really became Ye Mo's wife. How did that feeling come so suddenly?
He recalled that the day when he wore his pajamas for Li Mumei's photo session, he looked so immersed in his acting; thinking about that day, he was, Ning Qingxue quickly pulled her arm from Ye Mo's arm while her heart was still beating fast. Every time he made physical contact with Ye Mo, he found that he was unable to maintain that calm state and was even more surprised by the fact that he liked that soothing feeling.
Ye Mo seemed to have something on him that he wanted to pursue. It was like an indescribable feeling of calmness and longing, but it was a little subtle at the same time. It pulled him like a moth into the flame, so the only thing he could do was constantly remind himself what kind of person Ye Mo was.
Zhou Lei saw the comfort Ye Mo and Ning Qingxue were leaning on him, as well as his flushed red face, which made him even more doubtful of himself. “Did Ning Qingxue really fall in love with Ye Mo and the two married each other out of love and not something else?”
“Come go.” Ye Mo saw that Zhou Lei was still deep in thought and reminded him of reality. He did not have a good impression of this woman who liked to invade the privacy of others.
The three of them each thought of different things as they left the courtyard. In a place not far from where they lived there was a relatively large restaurant called Glamorous Cuisine and a star restaurant. Ning Qingxue did not want to go too far, so she pointed to Glamorous Cuisine and said to Ye Mo: “Ye Mo, I think this Glamorous Cuisine looks pretty good, let's go there.”
“No, the food there was too expensive – “Before Ye Mo finished his words, Ning Qingxue was already angry.
“Ye Mo, why do you need so much money? We will only spend at most 1000 dollars in this restaurant. You ... “Ning Qingxue is not someone who likes to show off, but Ye Mo saved 500,000 dollars and became stingy with his schoolmate about going to the restaurant. Even though she didn't really like this schoolmate, it was still a schoolmate, and she was still a member of the Ning Family; ye Mo brought too much embarrassment to her.
Zhou Lei looked at Ye Mo in surprise. This was the first time he had seen someone so stingy while eating. And this is in front of his own wife and schoolmates. However, Ning Qingxue's admiration of him did not seem to be fake.
Seeing that Ning Qingxue was still going to say something else, Ye Mo was angry, but she was not someone with a narrow heart. He knew that if he were to get angry now, the show between him and Ning Qingxue would be worth it. He was going to leave Ning Hai immediately, so there was no point in refuting a woman.
Thinking of this, he hurriedly said, “OK, do as you please. Let's go here to eat today. ”Although he said that, he felt depressed in his heart, he only had 3,000 dollars in his pocket, and this was the money earned from him by selling his blood. Even though his blood would be wasted even if he did not donate it, he still did not want to use the money he earned from selling blood to invite a woman he did not like to dinner.
Ye Mo had made a decision; after a few days, he would immediately leave Ning Hai. As for Ning Qingxue's matter, she had already helped enough. He needed to find a stable place to plant his Silver Heart Grass. He already deeply understood that someone without a background like him would be meat on the cutting board in society if he did not have enough strength.
Dinner was relatively fun. Although Zhou Lei did not get what he wanted, he could already tell that the view of Ye Mo and Ning Qingxue's spending was very different. But from how Ye Mo was so stingy with money, he was further convinced that Ye Mo was actually living with Ning Qingxue. From how Ye Mo used cash instead of cards to pay for food, he could tell that Ye Mo really did not live a wealthy life.
Ye Mo was the most unhappy. This meal cost him 3000 dollars, he even had to take 5 and 10 on him. If Ning Qingxue did not have to order a bottle of wine for 2,000 dollars, this meal would not cost that much. Even though he drank most of the red wine, he was still unhappy.
After eating, Zhou Lei did not stay and instead chose to say goodbye to them. Perhaps, it was because he saw Ye Mo use 5 and 10 to pay, but he wondered if he showed him that he had no money or something like that.
When Ning Qingxue and Ye Mo returned, they were not as intimate as before. Ning Qingxue did not want to talk to Ye Mo. He felt that Ye Mo had made him lose face today. Although she did not really care about these things, Ye Mo paid with cash instead of his business card, and although he deliberately ordered red wine, but in the end, he drank it himself. Ye Mo also did not want to talk. This dinner cost over 3,000 dollars. Now, he only had 20 dollars left in his pocket.
In the days that followed, if Ye Mo did not go looking for work, he would not even have money for food. Maybe he really had to sell blood to get food, but it was impossible for him to do that in the long run; the situation was not too bad. Although the price he was paid to sell blood was the same as everyone else, Ye Mo believed his blood to be of better quality than others. He felt defeated at this price.
Ye Mo's cuisine was getting simpler and simpler. Although Qingxue was not fussy about food, she looked down on stingy people like Ye Mo. That night, Ye Mo brought his medical equipment. She did not think that she should go to the night market ahead of schedule since Ning Qingxue had come. Originally, he had thought that he would not need to do this anymore after curing the purple coral poison from the old man. But now, he walked on this path once more.
However, what made Ye Mo disappointed was that, even if he set up his stall on the busy streets of Ning Du Walking Street for two days, it was not until he had, he didn't even get a single person to do business with him; instead, he was even kicked by the city management once. Ye Mo barely went to Ning Hai University. First, he did not want to see Yun Bing. Second, there was nothing else he could learn there. He had originally planned to give some medicinal pills he had made to Shi Xiu, but he had applied to leave for a week due to family matters.
Although Ning Qingxue had basically not spoken to Ye Mo, she still saw what Ye Mo was doing. His father called him and told him not to worry. Even if he, Ning Zhongfei, was expelled from the Ning Family, he would not sell his daughter, especially to that demon from the Song Family.
Her father's words made Ning Qingxue feel more assured. His parents had already gone to Beijing to settle matters with the Ning Family. Two days after that, they would come to Ning Hai and take him away.
Ning Qingxue looked at Ye Mo's remaining pot in the corridor to boil herbs, and her disdain for Ye Mo gradually began to fade. What is the relationship between him and him? It's just a deal. He gave her 500,000 dollars, and the money was his. If he doesn't want to spend money, that's the problem. Why should he be disappointed in this type of person?
After thinking of this, Ning Qingxue seemed to feel better. Even though he was very stingy, he still bought some vegetables at home and cooked every day. Ye Mo carried his small suitcase again; xu Wei still had not returned. He did not know whether or not it was because Ye Mo and Xu Wei were living together so Ning Qingxue tried to avoid facing Xu Wei. As for his mentality, he had no idea. Maybe it was to avoid awkwardness.
Regardless of whether it was genuine or fake, she and Ye Mo were still husband and wife. Her husband slept in the next room. Even if they were a fake couple, he did not want to face the woman. Thinking about how he'd get out of here the day after tomorrow and probably never come back in a lifetime. There was an unfamiliar yet faint melancholy appearing in his heart. He knew this was not because of Ye Mo but for another reason. Ning Qingxue walked out of her room for the first time. Perhaps he also wanted to see the place where he stayed for more than 20 days.
Ming Du Street was probably the most popular place in Ning Du district at night, and Ning Qingxue had unknowingly already walked here. The place was filled with people, red lights, and green lights. There were all sorts of snacks and small tokens sold everywhere. There are also many small businesses and stalls. One stall had a golden cake that looked alluring and billowing with air. Ning Qingxue who had never eaten snacks by the roadside could not resist the temptation and bought one gold cake for two dollars. He bit lightly; it was sticky and soft.
“Come and see ancestral recipes! It can cure all sorts of ailments, headaches, fever, external and internal injuries, farsightedness .. There are only things you cannot think of but nothing I cannot heal! ”This promotion almost made Ning Qingxue laugh. From the voice of this person, he could heal anything.
Ning Qingxue subconsciously looked at the person selling the fake medicine and was stunned. Isn't this Ye Mo? Although she was wearing a duck-shaped feel and hat, Ning Qingxue could tell it was her from the first sight. Plus, there was a signature chest beside him. Ning Qingxue had always not known what was inside, but now she knew: it was a medical case.
