"Sure, please wait a moment."
The uncle greeted Fang Xiaocao enthusiastically.
Ten minutes later, the text message alert sounded on the phone.
Fang Xiaocao picked up her phone and saw it, 8 million had been transferred into her account.
"Welcome to visit again!"
The uncle warmly saw Fang Xiaocao off as she left the store.
"Goodbye, uncle!"
Fang Xiaocao waved to the uncle, bidding farewell.
Walking on the street, Fang Xiaocao was extremely excited.
Could a freshman really earn a huge sum of 8 million?
[Ding Dong!]
[Your friend has sent you a message.]
Fang Xiaocao picked up her phone and glanced at it.
It was a WeChat message.
Without hesitation, Fang Xiaocao opened it.
[Hot Noodles: Congratulations on becoming a millionaire, don't forget to pay the tax. ]
Looking at the content of the WeChat message, Fang Xiaocao blinked.
Decisively, she hailed a cab and headed straight for the tax bureau.
Now, Fang Xiaocao had unwavering faith in Hot Noodles, whether or not she was herself from the future, at least the 8 million was real.
Since the other party had specifically reminded her to pay taxes, it was very possible that she could get into unnecessary trouble by not doing so.
Having paid the tax and leaving the tax bureau,
Fang Xiaocao then realized that by obediently following advice, she had avoided a lot of unnecessary trouble.
Large amounts of money of unclear origin would be subject to an investigation, unexpected income, profits from transactions, all required declaring the situation and voluntarily paying taxes.
Once taxes were paid, it became legal.
[Ding Dong!]
[Your friend has sent you a message.]
Just as Fang Xiaocao got into the taxi, her phone rang again.
She picked up her phone and saw it was a WeChat message.
Fang Xiaocao opened WeChat, and the chat interface popped up automatically.
[Hot Noodles: Congratulations on successfully avoiding an unnecessary trouble. As a reward, at noon tomorrow, go to the used car market and buy the only mini. Also, there's a surprise tomorrow morning, stay away from Han Xue and Qi Yu.]
After seeing this WeChat message, Fang Xiaocao blinked and replied with a "Received!"
[Contact does not exist!]
Looking at the prompt on the chat interface, Fang Xiaocao rolled her eyes.
Sitting in the taxi, she arrived at the nearest shopping mall.
Fang Xiaocao started her frenzied shopping spree.
Three hours later, carrying big and small bags, Fang Xiaocao returned to the hotel.
After extending her room for ten more days at the front desk, Fang Xiaocao, with her belongings in tow, went back to her room.
She had no intention of checking out until the murder case in the rental property was solved.
Without the security of being near the police station, Fang Xiaocao didn't feel safe.
The next day!
Fang Xiaocao declined the part-time job offer sent by the agent. With several million in her account, she was not planning on taking any part-time jobs anymore.
After washing up and changing into a sporty outfit, she tucked a bottle of pepper spray close to her and went downstairs, ready to check out the used car market mentioned in the message.
The sportswear was something Fang Xiaocao had specifically purchased the day before.
The thought of Officer Li Qiang saying that she might be the target of the killer sent shivers down Fang Xiaocao's spine.
The killer who had murdered her neighbor hadn't been caught yet and could come for her at any time. Fang Xiaocao had chosen attire that would facilitate movement and escape.
To avoid an encounter with the killer, being hindered by clothing, and getting caught.
"Xiaocao, how could you be here?"
Just as Fang Xiaocao arrived at the reception, she ran right into her best friend, Han Xue…
And her suitor, Qi Yu!
Seeing Han Xue and Qi Yu's hands tightly clasped together, and the rose in Han Xue's hand, Fang Xiaocao instantly understood.
So this was the "surprise" referred to in the message.
"Xiaocao, listen to my explanation…"
Han Xue let go of Qi Yu's hand and eagerly tried to grab Fang Xiaocao's.
Fang Xiaocao subtly dodged away, smiling, "There's nothing to explain, I wish you happiness, ha."
Fang Xiaocao finally knew why, when Qi Yu was pursuing her, Han Xue always spoke ill of him—because Han Xue had set her sights on Qi Yu.
And Qi Yu, that scumbag, had sent her ambiguous messages before the vacation, asking her out and then turned around to hook up with Han Xue.
The two of them, really a perfect match.
Scumbag and a cheap woman, lock them up good and don't come near me.
"Xiaocao, don't overthink it, I was drunk yesterday, and Qi Yu just brought me to the hotel because he was worried about me being alone, he stayed to take care of me..."
After the initial panic, Han Xue quickly regained her composure and gave a flimsy excuse.
Had it been before, Fang Xiaocao might have believed her, but with the warning from the message, Fang Xiaocao was only naive, not stupid…
"It's okay, no need to explain anything to me."
"Qi Yu and I, we have nothing to do with each other, you know."
Fang Xiaocao said cheerfully.
After that, she didn't give Han Xue the opportunity to pester her and quickly walked out of the hotel, hailed a taxi, and headed straight for the used car market.
To say she wasn't upset would be a lie.
Qi Yu was fairly handsome, with a warm smile.
Fang Xiaocao did have a good impression of him.
If it hadn't been for Han Xue always interfering, Fang Xiaocao was prepared to accept Qi Yu's pursuit.
Even though Han Xue continuously spoke badly about Qi Yu, Fang Xiaocao hadn't outright rejected him, planning to observe and see if Qi Yu was truly sincere towards her.
But she hadn't expected to encounter something this disgusting.
However, Fang Xiaocao felt, she should thank Han Xue. If it weren't for her stepping into the line of fire, Fang Xiaocao wouldn't have discovered Qi Yu's true scumbag nature.
A man who had asked her out the day before, only to take her best friend to book a room the next day, who could he truly be serious about?
Fang Xiaocao even felt sorry for Han Xue; after all her scheming, not only did she end up with a scumbag, but she also lost a wealthy best friend like herself.
[Ding Dong!]
[You've received a message from a friend.]
The mobile phone screen lit up; it was a WeChat message.
Fang Xiaocao didn't hesitate and opened the chat interface immediately.
[Hot Noodles: Are you still sad about the scumbag and the cheap woman? I think you should be grateful that you didn't go through my miserable experience and realized their disgusting true colors early. Han Xue will ask to meet you tomorrow night, don't go, remember, cherish life, stay away from scumbags and cheap women.]
Reading the message content, Fang Xiaocao was startled.
The message from her future self contained a lot of information; Fang Xiaocao's CPU was overheating.
Her future self had gone through some bad experiences, brought on by Han Xue and Qi Yu.
Han Xue was going to ask to meet her tomorrow night, and if she attended, she would encounter a threat to her life!
Fang Xiaocao sharply caught the key point in the message.
"Miss, we've arrived!"
The taxi driver's voice interrupted Fang Xiaocao's thoughts.
Fang Xiaocao came back to her senses and looked out the window.
The sign for the used car market came into view.
Fang Xiaocao scanned the code to pay the fare, got out of the car, and quickly walked towards the used car market.
Entering the used car market, Fang Xiaocao was immediately blown away by the sight of the huge parking lot, filled with all kinds of second-hand cars.
As a girl, and a college student at that, Fang Xiaocao saying she understood cars would be a lie.
There are few girls who know cars, and the ones who only recognize some car brands are already considered learned in the realm of automobiles.
