Chapter 38 Different Fates for the Same People

The small box contained gold bars, about twenty in total!

Xu Yan hesitated for a moment, then picked one up and weighed it in her hand before exclaiming, "This one weighs half a pound?"

Upon hearing this, the other women picked it up and weighed it in their hands, and couldn't help but nod in unison that it was indeed half a pound.

Su Man'er counted carefully, then suddenly remembered what Gu Feng had said to her at the dinner table that day, "Is this one hundred taels of gold?"

"Um!"

Gu Feng responded, picked up a piece and bit it. There were clear teeth marks on it, so it was obviously real gold!

The women were all worldly-wise, so they naturally recognized that it was indeed real gold, not silver!

Su Man'er, however, was full of questions: "Did Ding Hanhan give this to you too?"

"Yes!" Gu Feng nodded again.

Su Man'er finally couldn't hold back any longer. Regardless of whether they were outsiders or not, she blurted out to Gu Feng, "Why did she get you the documents and give you gold?"

The three women exchanged a knowing glance: Was there even a need to ask? It's obvious she's got her eye on your man! Little Manman, it seems your battle to protect your love is about to begin!

"Because..." Gu Feng opened his mouth and said two words before stopping. This matter was a bit long, and he had to figure out where to start.

"Could it be that you sold yourself to her?" Su Man'er's imagination was always very vivid.

These words startled Gu Feng, and even the three women were greatly shocked. They were willing to sell themselves for a hundred taels of gold.

Gu Feng wiped the cold sweat from his brow. "Sister, how could you think that? Although I, Gu Feng, like money, I sell my body, not my art!"

"What?" The four women almost jumped up and asked in unison.

"No, you misspoke!" Gu Feng quickly corrected himself, "It means 'I perform, I don't sell my body'!"

"What exactly happened? Explain yourself right now! Otherwise, I won't let you off the hook!" Su

As Man'er spoke, her fingers began to itch. If it weren't for the presence of outsiders, she would have already attacked Gu Feng's ears.

"Uh, here's the thing..."

Gu Feng didn't dare to hide anything, so he told her the whole story!

Of course, the three conditions he proposed to Ding Hanhan were reduced to just two when the girls heard them!

He's not mentally unstable; how could he possibly say something like asking a woman to undress and see her naked?

"My God, just for treating one illness, the consultation fee is one hundred taels of gold, plus a Shenzhen household registration?" Xu Yan stared at Gu Feng in astonishment!

Zhao Xiaojing also clicked her tongue in admiration: "So black, it's absolutely so black!"

"Sisters, a hundred taels of gold may seem like a lot to you, but if a hundred taels of gold can buy a life, then it's not much at all. Besides, my sister said the other day that the old man is incredibly wealthy; a hundred taels of gold is just a drop in the ocean for him!" Gu Feng said, feeling very aggrieved. "I actually think it's too little. If I don't treat his illness, not even a million taels of gold could buy his life back!"

Su Man'er carefully considered Gu Feng's words and felt that they made some sense. After thinking for a moment, she finally blurted out, "Then why didn't you order more?"

Gu Feng, feeling extremely cold, exclaimed, "You just said I'm dark-skinned!"

"I didn't say that, she said it!" Su Man'er shifted the blame to Xu Yan.

"So what if it's black? What's there to be ashamed of? It's all black, no matter how much. Why don't you go for more? It's only a hundred taels of gold, which is just over a million. It's not much, not little. Those rich guys, you might as well rip them off. If it were me, I would definitely ask for a million taels. Qingqing, how much is a million taels of gold?" Zhao Xiaojing asked.

"Let me calculate!" Chen Qingqing stood up and started counting on her fingers, but no matter how she calculated, it was all wrong!

The women became interested, and Su Man'er rummaged through drawers and found a computer. She typed away for a while and then handed the computer to the women.

The women glanced at the screen and almost simultaneously exclaimed, "Ten billion?"

Su Man'er nodded. "Ten thousand taels of gold is one hundred million, and one million taels of gold is ten billion. Gu Feng, if you ask for that, you'll be rich. If that old man's family had that much money, they would definitely use it to save him."

Gu Feng broke out in a cold sweat. He'd seen black before, but never anything this black. He pulled Su Man'er aside. "Sister, it's okay to be greedy, but not too greedy. I used to be like that, trying to get rich quick. I ended up getting myself into trouble instead of getting what I wanted, and almost lost my life!"

"Really?" Su Man'er stared at him with wide eyes.

"Even pearls aren't that real!" Gu Feng nodded, then smiled, "But I should also thank myself for that lesson, otherwise I wouldn't have met such a kind person as you, sister!"

"Is that how you praise someone? My face is turning red!" Su Man'er smiled broadly, but her face didn't turn red at all.

"Hey, what are you two whispering about?" Xu Yan couldn't help but yell when she saw the two of them ignoring the three of them and flirting amongst themselves.

"That's right, guests are guests too, how can you treat guests like this!" Chen Qingqing said with a laugh.

"How about you two continue chatting, and we each take a gold bar and leave!"

"Dare!" Su Man'er moved to the table with lightning speed, quickly closed the box, and hugged it to her chest, as if afraid it would be snatched away.

"Money-grubber!" the three women laughed and scolded in unison.

"I'm a money-grubber, and I'm happy to be one, so what?" Su Man'er said smugly. Now she finally knew what it felt like to hold more than a million yuan in her hands.

After holding it for a while, she finally handed it back to Gu Feng, saying, "It's back to its rightful owner!"

Gu Feng gently pushed the chest full of gold in front of Su Man'er.

Su Man'er was taken aback. "What's going on?"

"Here you go!"

These words shocked everyone in the room, and the three women could no longer close their mouths!

Su Man'er almost fainted. Happiness came so suddenly that she was caught off guard and could only stand there stunned.

"For me? Why, why?"

Su Man'er is usually very eloquent, but this time she actually stuttered a little!

She has always dreamed of striking it rich, buying two yuan worth of lottery tickets every day, rain or shine. But when a real windfall was placed in front of her, she was a little afraid that the money would be too hot to handle.

"My sister's car keeps breaking down every few days, she should get a new one. And she only wears the same few outfits, she should get some more... Anyway, buy whatever you like, the money's yours!"

Gu Feng spoke very generously, but a hint of cunning flashed in his eyes when he lowered his head.

"Are all of these for me?" Su Man'er asked incredulously, looking at the gleaming golden box.

"Um!"

"And what about you? You don't have a single penny!"

"Hehe, I don't need the money right now, and besides, it's just a mere hundred taels of gold. I, Gu Feng, will earn many more hundred taels in the future, just like you said, until I earn a million taels. I want to let my sister live the richest and most luxurious life of this era."

These few words had moved Su Man'er to tears, and she almost burst into tears on the spot.

These few words, though brief, left the girls stunned and speechless for a long time.

They originally thought that Gu Feng, who had never even drunk red wine, was just a country bumpkin, but they never expected that he was a master healer.

They originally thought Gu Feng was just a gigolo who cheated women out of money and sex, but they never expected him to be such a handsome guy who was willing to spend money on them.

They originally thought that Su Man'er would lose badly this time, to the point of not wanting to live anymore. Unexpectedly, she had already made more than a million without putting in any effort.

Now, they truly realized they were wrong, terribly wrong. Looking at Gu Feng, they no longer dared to show any contempt; their admiration was beyond words—they were utterly awestruck.

The three women were all shrewd and experienced people. They could tell at a glance whether someone was human, demon, ghost, monster, or god. They had already discerned the relationship between Gu Feng and Su Man'er from their expressions during their conversation. Although there was ambiguity, there was no real relationship. In today's open society, it was extremely difficult for a man and a woman to remain pure and innocent when alone together in a room.

What's even more remarkable is that Gu Feng, having gained nothing and even having nothing of his own, actually handed over the more than one million yuan he had acquired to Su Man'er without hesitation, and judging from his expression, he didn't seem to care about the more than one million yuan at all.

Such a generous, ambitious, and capable man—what an outstanding potential stock he is! Su Man'er has truly struck gold this time.

People with the same fate can have different lives, and those with the same fate can suffer different illnesses. This saying is absolutely true!

Su Man'er was no better than them in any way, yet she easily obtained more than a million yuan, while they, who accompanied them to eat, drink, and sleep, ultimately lost everything.
