The Unwilling Hero Who Doesn't Want to Save America

  After the beauty disappeared, Guo Yao burst out laughing. This teasing of beauties is indeed a beneficial exercise for both body and mind. In the future, I'll have to do it more often when I get the chance.

  When Guo Yi returned to He Peng's office, the beautiful female secretary had already drafted the contract. Guo Yi took a simple look and found nothing important, anyway it was free rent. As for the things here, the contract didn't mention them at all, it seemed that in their eyes they were not worth much money. Alas, they are all rich people!

  The contract only focuses on free maintenance of three antiques every year. Guo Yi added a clause - they must be complete, and he can't make up for the incomplete ones. The fat man also agreed readily, so Guo Yi signed and the fat man stamped his seal.

  After everything was settled, the fatty generously invited Guo Yi to dinner. Guo Yi naturally wouldn't be polite, after all, he still had no money on him until now! While eating, Guo Yi told the fatty that he was a bit short of cash at the moment and asked if he knew anyone who needed something repaired. The fatty once again generously offered to lend him money, but was directly refused by Guo Yi. It's better not to owe favors whenever possible.

  After finishing dinner, Pangzi returned to the office and took out a jade Buddha with a broken corner for Guo Yixiu to repair, and paid 2000 yuan in advance. It was clear that he didn't want this piece of jade to occupy one of the three quotas, which also indirectly confirmed Tang Xiaolan's assertion about the exorbitant fees for antique repairs - outrageous profits!

  After handing the key to Guo Yi, Pongzi swaggered away with his sexy little honey, leaving the large office to him.

  Looking at the spacious, bright and luxurious office that was already sufficient for Guo Yi, he had a dreamy feeling. At this moment, he was very grateful to that cool god - without him, there would be no today for himself. Guo Yi thought that when he saw him again, he must be very respectful, just like how he treated his primary school principal back then. As for He Pangzi, Guo Yi also had a good impression of him. Such a big boss was interacting with someone wearing a vest and shorts, yet there wasn't a hint of disdain in his eyes. If it weren't for the fact that this person's city manners were cultivated to a certain degree, he would be a friend worth making.

  Besides, it feels really reassuring to have 2000 yuan on hand!

  Guo Yi carefully locked the door and first went to a roadside store to buy a knockoff Nokia N10. His original phone was worn out, with some of the numbers on the keypad being hard to see. Now that he had some spare cash, he decided to replace it. Although the quality and performance of the knockoff were not as good, its functions were still quite complete. It was convenient for reading e-books during his free time.

  Guo Yi recharged the card that had been out of service for a long time and dialed his mother's phone number. After a moment of surprise, his mother launched into a barrage of tired but urgent reminders. Unfortunately, before she could elaborate, his father snatched the phone away from her. Then, Guo Yi was subjected to a torrent of stern warnings and criticisms that were all the more intimidating for being delivered in a calm tone. He hastily agreed to everything, his obedience sounding extremely insincere.

  "If you can't make it out there, then get back here! I can afford to raise you!"

  The old man's last sentence made Guo Yao feel heartbroken for a few seconds, and his eyes almost welled up with tears. The good mood of the little tyrant suddenly disappeared. Guo Yao looked up at the distant sky in a daze for a while before regaining his composure and continuing to walk. At this time, a burst of laughter came from afar, accompanied by an angry scolding voice.

  Guo Yi looked over at the sound, and saw a girl in a professional suit grabbing onto the hand of a tall young man. The man made a gesture to leave, but the girl wouldn't let go. The laughter was coming from the young man and a fat guy standing next to him, and a crowd had already gathered around them.

  Guo Yi's curiosity arose, he had always been the one to stop beautiful women, but today it was the other way around. He walked a few steps forward and quietly asked an old man who was watching the commotion what was going on.

  The girl was carrying a small bucket of Chinese medicine that had just been decocted at the pharmacy and was on her way home when she was bumped into by the young man, causing the hot Chinese medicine to spill all over the ground. The very angry girl then asked the young man for compensation, but he said he didn't have any money and refused to pay.

  "I didn't bring any money, otherwise you can come with us to get some, look at the time, let's go, when we arrive, I'll not only lend you money but also accompany you, haha"

  "Right, I'm one of them too, haha"

  The young man was smiling and chatting, while his other hand seemed to be pushing the girl's hand away from his own, but in reality he was secretly caressing it. The expression on his face was very provocative, and the fat guy next to him also had a sly smile, with an unwholesome glint in his eye that kept scanning the girl's full breasts. The girl knew that they were taking advantage of her, but she didn't dare let go, afraid that they would run away if she did.

  An old woman next door advised:

  "Never mind, girl, go back to the pharmacy and get some more, don't want it!"

  The girl said with tears in her eyes:

  "All my money has been spent on medicine, I really don't have any more, and the medicine today was even borrowed from a colleague's money, you must pay me back!"

  The last sentence was said to that young man.

  The young man spoke angrily to the old lady:

  "You're really stubborn, what do you mean by this? I've told you before that I won't compensate!"

  The old lady nodded repeatedly and hastily retreated from the crowd.

  It was clear that the girl also saw that these two people were not good, and she didn't dare to follow them, but she wasn't willing to let them go either. So they just stood there in a stalemate, with the two men seemingly not in a hurry, especially the young man, who looked like he was enjoying himself, his hands becoming more and more unscrupulous, even stroking the girl's arm. The girl's face turned bright red as she quickly let go of the young man's hand and took a step back. The young man turned around and pretended to leave, but the girl didn't dare to stop him again. She gritted her teeth, stood up straight, and blocked their path, her chest heaving slightly as she said in a urgent voice:

  "You can't leave without paying!"

  The young man took a step closer to the girl and said with a smile:

  "Why don't you go? Little sister, come with me, I'll give you money!"

  "Brother, I'll give it to you too! Guarantee you'll be satisfied!"

  The fatty on the side was drooling heavily, with his mouth already starting to water.

  The girl hastily retreated, with tears already welling up in her eyes, yet she still refused to let go.

  Look at this girl's outfit, she doesn't look like someone who can't afford medicine, why is she so stubborn! Guo Yi sighed and asked:

  "How much is this medicine?"

  "Over one thousand two hundred."

  The girl looked at Guo Yi and replied.

  Over a thousand, the people around her all took a deep breath, it's really not cheap, no wonder she didn't want to give up.

  When he heard this, Guo Yi turned around and left, really couldn't bear to watch a beauty being bullied by thugs. But the problem is that he neither had the courage nor ability to challenge the two thugs, nor did he have the audacity to pay for them. To know that he just walked out of hunger and cold, his money wasn't even warm yet, giving it to this beauty would make him a poor guy again in a short time. Hero rescuing beauty is such a romantic thing, let's leave it to those who are worry-free and have nothing better to do.

  "Guo Ye!"

  Kuo Yi didn't expect this girl to suddenly shout out his name?

  He was startled and stared at the girl in surprise, but she ran over to him like a lifesaver, grabbing his hand. As he felt her small, slippery hand, Guo Yao asked incredulously:

  "Do you know me?"

  "You don't remember me? I'm Xiao Yu!"

  "Xiao... Xiao Yu? Are you Xiao Yu?"

  A flash of lightning tore through the thick fog, and Guo Yi suddenly remembered that he not only knew this girl, but also shouldn't have forgotten her no matter what.
