Yang Ci Mu seemed to be showing off, and he said eloquently: "Opportunities are only reserved for those who are prepared. I have to say that the tastes of those people above are really weird. I prepared so many types, but they didn't like any of them.

"I need a student who was born in the downtown area, had an unfortunate childhood, is difficult to tame, but also has a mild temper, is not greedy for wealth and power, and is a pure and flawless person.

“Terry, how could such a person really exist? In the end, I couldn’t find him. I was so unwilling to give up that I even offered up the woman I loved to him.

"Just when I was desperate, that woman came with that bastard. But I should thank her.

"She reminds me of 'my dear daughter'. You have observed it, right? What a suitable person. This overwhelming wealth has finally come to me.

"The family will prosper because of me, and that damn word 'from' should be removed from my head. I will become a true baron, and I will make those who laugh at me fall to their knees, all because I have a caring daughter.

"With money and power, there is nothing I can't get. Many people want to worship me as their father. Terry, you should be happy for your master."

The housekeeper hesitated for a moment before continuing, "But if she knows about this, aren't you afraid that the young lady won't come back?"

"Haha, Terry, you worry too much. Have you ever heard of the saying, 'It is difficult to go from extravagance to simplicity, but easy to go from frugality to extravagance'? The things I showed her today are things she will never have the chance to see in her life. No one can resist this temptation.

"This difference is like putting the throne in front of me now. As long as I marry a princess, I can ascend to the throne. Who can refuse?

"Just like her mother did before, I believe she will choose the same path. Moreover, I trust her mother very much. I know exactly what she was like when she was young."

The butler bowed his head slightly, giving people an impression of respect and submission, and it seemed that he had agreed with Yang Ci Mu's theory of selling his daughter for fame.

It was unknown how long the two of them had been chasing each other. Because of her work, Kan Lihua's physical condition was getting worse and worse. No matter how fast she accelerated, she could not catch up with her daughter in front of her who was concentrating on her life.

The traffic in the upper city is very good. Even if there are no traffic police standing patrolling at the zebra crossing, no one will run a red light in the endless stream of cars.

But now the light is red. Just as no car runs through the green light, no pedestrian dares to step onto the white line when the light is red.

The traffic was like a speeding car, leaving only afterimages. The terrifying speed was probably one of the reasons why passers-by were afraid to run a red light.

The green light was already flashing as a warning, and Kan Lihua didn't dare to chase any further. She could only stand on the side of the road and shout.

"Zhi Yu, come back soon. Listen to your mother. Everything I do is for your own good. Marry the Duke's son and you will be a Duchess. You will no longer have to suffer in the slums. You can do whatever you want.

"You, you like going to school, don't you? Do you know how much it costs to go to college? With my income, I can't afford to support you. But if you just marry him, you can choose any university in the world. You can go to study wherever you want and study for as long as you want. Everyone will envy you..."

However, before she could finish her words and persuade the person to come back, the glaring red light came on and the traffic surged again.

Kan Zhiyu, who had been concentrating on finding the direction in her memory, had actually seen the red light that was about to turn on, but she did not dare to stop because she knew that once she stopped, she might never be able to run again.

The drivers here seem to have no concept of giving way to pedestrians. Even if they see someone on the zebra crossing, they still drive at full speed, as if they are not afraid of killing someone at all.

I don’t know if it was luck or something else, but Kan Zhiyu actually crossed the traffic.

The mother's cries became increasingly vague, and her figure gradually disappeared, as if she had really escaped.

But looking around, the high-rise buildings reaching into the sky blocked her view, and the people around her chatting and laughing, and walking slowly as if they were taking a walk, also seemed out of place to her.

What’s next?

Because I was escaping in such a panic, I had no time to pay attention to the route I had only taken once.

"My beautiful lady, are you okay? You seem to need help. I wonder if I have the honor to help you?" A clear and cheerful male voice sounded in front of him.

Kan Zhiyu, who was bending over and breathing heavily, raised his head slightly and saw a very special outfit.

He was wearing a red turtleneck sweater with an unknown fictional character embroidered on it, and green trousers full of pockets, all of which were bulging as if they contained something.

The man looked to be in his 20s at most, and asked in a friendly and concerned manner.

Seeing Kan Zhiyu's scrutiny, the man smiled slightly, took out a bottle of drink like magic and said, "Drink some water to relieve the pain."

"Thank you." Kan Zhiyu slowly came to his senses and apologized, but he did not reach out to take the bottle of drink.

My mother once said not to take food or drinks from strangers because they may be poisoned.

"Don't you like the taste of this? It doesn't matter, I have others. I can make whatever you like to drink." The man said mysteriously.

Kan Zhiyu was about to refuse, but his mother's words came to his mind again.

Not allowed, not allowed, nothing is allowed.

A question arose in her mind: what would happen if she really did it?

"Thank you." Before I could think clearly, my hand had already taken it.

I took a few gulps as if in revenge, and it tasted unexpectedly good.

"It seems that you like strawberry flavor. My girlfriend also likes strawberry flavored drinks."

Kan Zhiyu looked at the beautifully packaged box in his hand, which had a strawberry pattern on it. So this is the strawberry flavor?

She had seen it and heard of it, but she had never eaten it, because strawberries are a very expensive fruit. Not only strawberries, but all fruits are expensive.

Kan Zhiyu's sudden silence seemed to make the man realize something.

What he just said seemed to be easy to cause misunderstanding, so he quickly explained: "Ah, no, no, that's not what I meant. I mean I have a girlfriend who likes strawberry-flavored drinks just like you. I'm not talking about you."

The man who had struck up a conversation with her so easily before now seemed surprisingly innocent.

But Kan Zhiyu didn't understand the man's explanation at all. Why do you need to explain?

But for something this expensive, I have to apologize properly. "The drink is delicious, thank you, but I don't think I have anything to give you in return."

In addition to the 600 yuan she had on her, this was also the poverty subsidy that Teacher Liao suddenly gave her. She did not tell her mother about this, and she always carried the 600 yuan with her.
