CHAPTER 389: CHAPTER 388: THE BIG GOLD CHAIN

Grain Rain’s rain continued for three days, only stopping on Wednesday evening when the sun finally showed its face.

After the rain stopped, the sky was filled with sunset glow.

During those rainy days, not only did Zhen Yu tell Han Mingyue the good news about ’the same period as the event’, she also found time to buy a book called "First Intimate Contact."

She was quite familiar with the author’s pen name, Long Aotian!

Since there were no new ’enemy situations’, Zhen Yu casually put the book aside and didn’t bother with it anymore.

The renovation of the new shop was completely finished, and six internet manager roles had been filled.

Taking advantage of the two days before the weekend when there weren’t many customers, Zhen Yu made a grand gesture and had Zhang San’er take all six people to tidy up the new shop.

On Friday evening, Zhen Yu received a message from Zhang San’er, "The cleaning is done! During the weekend the computer desks and chairs will be delivered! Hurry up and arrange the computer setup! As soon as Zhen Yan gets the internet service started, I can immediately begin wiring!"

That’s when Zhen Yu remembered that she hadn’t bought computers yet!

So, before going to bed that night, she quickly flipped through her brother’s bankbook in space!

In forty days, another hundred thousand yuan had been saved in the bankbook!

It was also one hundred thousand yuan this time, but it took ten more days than last time. From this perspective, increasing staff and offering bonuses to old employees had indeed thinned the profits.

Fortunately, Zhen Yu’s vision wasn’t narrow-minded, she wasn’t entangled in the immediate gains and losses but was just aware of the data!

—

Before going to bed on Saturday night, Zhen Yu connected to Dimension One.

He Baihe had long chosen which star she wanted to chase! Honestly, Zhen Yu thought her taste was quite good!

After agreeing on the specific method of exchanging gold for computers with He Baihe, Zhen Yu chatted with her for another hour. Then, early on Sunday, Zhen Yu and her brother headed straight to the Postal Savings Bank!

Because they were withdrawing too much cash at once, the two of them ran to several banks. Each time at the counter they repeated the same line, "Withdraw as much as possible!"

After three times, Zhen Yan became numb and just slapped the ID card and bankbook on the counter! He just reported the numbers and left the rest. Because each time the money withdrawn was directly taken by Zhen Yu into her backpack.

Once all the one hundred thousand yuan had been withdrawn, Zhen Yu directly sent her brother to set up the internet!

Zhen Yan was shocked! "Is it okay for you to run around with so much cash alone?!"

Zhen Yu laughed lightly and revealed a bit of truth to her brother, "Don’t worry! Even if I let you search me standing here, you won’t find where I’ve hidden the money!"

"... Then I’m going!" After understanding, Zhen Yan dropped a line and turned and walked away!

His swift attitude made Zhen Yu start to wonder if her brother was too careless! How could he believe what she said so fantastically, without even asking any further questions...

—

On Sunday, the female clerks selling gold and silver jewelry in the department store went crazy!

"Hey! Did you hear? The Xiao Zhang’er at the counter next door just served a young girl! She sold over a thousand grams of gold jewelry in one go!!"

"Really? She sold that much at once? Was it just that young girl buying alone?!"

"I heard it was over two thousand grams! She bought around a hundred and eighty heavy gold chains in one go!!"

"Actually, several people at different counters saw that young girl too! Due to her young age and the fact she was carrying a backpack, she didn’t look like she could afford it! That’s why everyone didn’t greet her. I don’t know what Xiao Zhang’er was thinking..."

"Did you see her too?! Ai, too bad there’s no chance for regrets..."

"... Yes!"

Zhen Yu who had bought enough gold didn’t know about the commotion she caused. However, not long after leaving the department store, she felt something was off!

Someone was following her.

It was a peculiar sensation! Although everyone behind her acted very normal every time she pretended to look back casually, as soon as Zhen Yu turned around, she immediately felt a sense of a thorn in her back!

Originally, Zhen Yu intended to wait for a taxi by the roadside and then go straight home! But now she dared not stop, so she kept walking non-stop all the way to the bus stop! Regardless of which bus came, as soon as she saw one entering the station, Zhen Yu didn’t hesitate to hop on!

However, she only rode two stops before getting off.

Zhen Yu was the first person off the bus, and after getting off, she briskly walked a few steps forward then quickly turned around!

This way, she naturally could see everyone who got off the bus behind her. A grandma in her fifties or sixties, two young women who were together, a middle-aged man with a beer belly, and a lean young man.

No matter how you looked at it, the last person was the most suspicious! But Zhen Yu didn’t take the other people lightly, she silently kept her distance from all of them, maintaining at least five steps away and staying alert.

The two young women soon walked away chatting and laughing, while the old lady just sat down on the bench prepared for those waiting for the bus. The two men didn’t leave, both just quietly standing in the waiting area.

On the weekend, there were many people taking the bus! In just a short moment, several buses stopped at the station. Zhen Yu held her position until a bus arrived that was so crowded its interior could be seen from the window. As soon as the bus stabilized, Zhen Yu immediately rushed forward! She didn’t care if anyone followed her!

Once on the bus, she pushed hard towards the rear door! When the bus reached the next station, she had squeezed near the rear door. The bus hadn’t yet stopped when Zhen Yu instantly jumped off!

After getting off, she turned around!

... No one?!

Without much thought, a taxi came by, and Zhen Yu hurriedly waved to hail it!

After sitting in the taxi, Zhen Yu sighed with relief!

"Huh..."

"What’s wrong, young lady? Why the long face as if you’ve had a deep grievance?" The driver, hearing her sigh at such a young age, couldn’t help but teasingly joke.

"It’s okay! It’s just, the bus was too crowded! It crushed me!"

"Haha... that’s why I say it’s best not to take the bus on weekends! Look! Taking a taxi is much more comfortable!"

"Hehe." Zhen Yu let out an awkward yet polite smile, leaning forward to take off her backpack from her back.

Initially, it was just because the backpack was uncomfortable being wedged between her back and the seat back, so Zhen Yu thought to take it off.

But this action indeed invited trouble!
