"Welcome, how can I..." The salesperson's words trailed off when they saw the man's appearance.
"I want to see your manager," the man spoke without a hint of emotion.
The salesperson, taken aback by the man's cold eyes, quickly went to find Zhang Mo, thinking there might be trouble.
"I'm the manager of this store. Do you have any business with me?" Zhang Mo thought someone was causing a disturbance and instructed the salesperson to call the police if the situation worsened.
The man pulled out a stack of money from his black bag. "Give me the audio recordings from the surveillance in your store."
Zhang Mo was aware of a particular type of individual who remained unaffected by appearances or the opinions of others yet possessed remarkable abilities. Without hesitation, Zhang Mo made copies of the surveillance footage and audio recordings, handing them to the man. "Here are the items."
"Alright." The man didn't question further and took the items before leaving.
"He's truly a strange person," Zhang Mo sighed.

After leaving the shopping mall, Fu Xiaoya went to another store to buy a microphone for Qin Huaichen. Although it wasn't a customized model and not as visually appealing, it was a limited edition with unique features. Fu Xiaoya liked having something unique.
With the remaining money, Fu Xiaoya purchased medical insurance for her parents and various family members. She had witnessed too many unfortunate news stories about rural individuals unable to afford medical treatment and tragically succumbing to their illnesses. She didn't want the same fate for her parents. That was why she was determined to work hard and ensure her family had a better life.
As she contemplated these thoughts, Fu Xiaoya suddenly felt a longing for her parents. She found a quiet and secluded place, took out her phone, and initiated a video call with her mother, Fu Hua.
"Mom, Dad!" Fu Xiaoya beamed with a wide smile. "I miss you both."
Hearing these words, Fu Hua's eyes welled up with tears. "My dear daughter, Mom, and Dad miss you too. When are you coming back?"
Caught in the gaze of her hopeful mother, Fu Xiaoya suddenly didn't want to lie anymore. "I'm sorry, Mom and Dad. I deceived you. I came out to audition as an entertainer, and tomorrow I'll start training. It's likely that I won't be able to come home for a long time." Even if she had the time to return, she couldn't go back. She couldn't bring danger to her parents and the peaceful village while she couldn't protect them.
"No need to apologize to Mom and Dad. If our Xiaoya can be selected as an entertainer, it means she's outstanding. Mom and Dad are proud of you! From now on, we'll be the family of a big star!" Fu Hua's mind began to imagine the scene of Fu Xiaoya and Qin Huaichen standing on stage together, receiving awards. It would be an incredibly breathtaking sight!
Misinterpreting Fu Hua's hopeful gaze as support for her entry into the entertainment industry, Fu Xiaoya finally felt relieved. Thinking about the medical insurance she had purchased for her parents, she quickly added, "Mom and Dad, I used my prize money to buy insurance for you. So, if you get sick, don't hesitate to seek medical treatment. Remember, if you're not feeling well, go to the hospital. With insurance, it won't cost much."
Buying medical insurance for them? Fu Hua and Fu Yuan were caught off guard, but they also understood that this was Fu Xiaoya's way of caring for them.
"Okay, thank you, our dear daughter. We'll take good care of our health. I still have to help you and Qin Huaichen take care of the children," Fu Hua teased.
Fu Yuanjiang coughed on the side. His daughter had just returned, and he hadn't spent enough time with her. He didn't want Fu Xiaoya to get married and have children so quickly.
"Mom, Qin Huaichen and I are just friends. Don't say things like that," Fu Xiaoya blushed.
"Okay, okay, it's fine. My precious daughter doesn't need to have any relationship with him," Fu Yuan quickly said. "If you need money, remember to tell Dad. The bank card I gave you, the password is your birthday. Don't suffer alone out there. If anything happens, remember to tell Mom and Dad."
Every day, Old Huang, the undercover bodyguard by Fu Xiaoya's side, would report Fu Xiaoya's situation to Fu Yuanjiang. Just moments ago, Old Huang mentioned that three girls were bullying his daughter! The conflict originated with a girl named Shi Yuan, who even snatched away the spot that rightfully belonged to Fu Xiaoya.
"I'm doing well here. You two take care of yourselves as well." Fu Xiaoya felt a warm feeling in her heart, and her mood improved. As she spoke, she scanned her surroundings and caught sight of a familiar figure, Lin Meimei, who was driving away alone.
Fu Xiaoya harbored a mischievous idea.
"Mom, Dad, I have something else to attend to. I'll hang up now." Fu Xiaoya smiled and bid farewell to her family.
