Though tired, Suzanne walked home with a smile on her face.
After coming out of the racetrack, she went to the bar to work as a waiter for eight hours. It was three in the morning when she thought that the 100,000 dollars might lighten the uncle's financial burden.
Just as she turned the corner, she saw bright lights on the dilapidated second floor of uncle's house.
"It's so late, isn't uncle still asleep?" She muttered and went upstairs quickly. As soon as she opened the door and went in, she was dragged in by the fat man who was facing her. Then she saw her uncle kneeling on the ground with his head in his arms. There was a lot of blood on the ground, and the things in the house were swayed, and many things were broken.
"Is it her?" The lead who was bald rubbed his chin and looked at Suzanne carefully. Suzanne instinctively took two steps back, looking at his uncle: "Uncle, who’s them?"
"We're here to collect debt."
“All right!" Hearing the answer, Suzanne felt relieved at once, and she took out the check: "There is 100,000 dollars to pay you first, and I will pay off the remaining $20,000 in two days !"
"Are you serious?!" The lead sneered and took the check away: "You indeed had borrowed $120,000, but after adding the interest, it is now $480,000. After removing $100,000, you still have to pay $380,000!"
Suzanne cried: "That's not true. The principal is obviously $100,000, and the interest is 20%, so it's only $20,000!"
"Little girl, we are not the charity organization! Our interests have always been 400%!" the lead said, holding a piece of paper in front of Suzanne and shaking it: "See, here is the IOU!"
As soon as Suzanne saw the Interest percentage, she almost fainted. She looked at her uncle, wondering how he dared to sign such an IOU, and the lead showed her a new one: "This is a new one. Your uncle just signed it. He has no money to repay the debt and has mortgaged you to us, so you must serve our customers for five years, and the debt will be paid all!"
"What? Is it true?!”shocked, Suzanne asked her uncle.
The answer was yes.
"Shut up! Take her away!" As soon as the lead waved, two strong men on the left and right came to catch Suzanne. In a hurry, Suzanne turned around and ran to the balcony. Seeing that the two were about to catch her, she thought without thinking, and then jumped over the balcony.
"Oh!" Suzanne stretched out her hand and rubbed her skinned knee, and ran forward desperately. The two men shouted and ran downstairs to chase after her.
"Stop!"
The screams pierced the tranquility of the night, but Suzanne could only desperately escape. She knew that if she was caught, she would be trapped within the boundless darkness from which she had to run away!
She ran desperately, turned when she saw the bend, and rushed when she saw the road. She even ran to a residential area. There were seven or eight men with camera equipment in front of her, and she rushed up and shouted. : "Help, help! Someone is to force me to be a prostitute!"
No one answered her. They just wanted to look around for something. Suzanne saw the two people behind him chasing her, so she could only grit her teeth and continued to run. When she reached an alley, she really couldn't run. Seeing the two people behind her, she could only rush to the back of the rotten trash can which she thought relatively safe.
But just before she rushed over, she saw somebody standing there. Nervous and surprised, the man covered her mouth, and then hugged her behind the trash can, and directly pressed on her.
"don’t make sound!" A man's voice sounded in her ears, his breath splashed on her ears which made Suzanne feel itchy and a bit awkward. She looked back, only to see the big bright eyes.
"Where is she?" The two men outside the trash can asked each other.
"Gone?"
"Probably ahead, let's go!"
The two ran away, and Suzanne felt relieved a lot. She motioned for the person who covered her mouth to leave her, but he didn’t and even hugged her tightly.
God! Is he to harass me?!
Suzanne realized the danger, and prepared to break free from his embrace, and run away quickly. But there was a voice from outside the trash can: "Is there anybody here?"
"None."
"Damn! You say she would definitely appear, didn’t you?"
"Who knows! The outpost said that he saw him driving here, and the car was parked 100 meters away."
"Hey, the car is moving over there!" Suddenly someone shouted. Those men run away, and the place was quiet again soon.
Suzanne was now quite sure that this guy was escaping something like him, so she didn’t try to struggle anymore.
About five or six minutes later, the man finally released her. Suzanne immediately opened her mouth to breathe, and then couldn't help but quickly get up and run away. It is so stinky here!
But before she ran out, two men appeared in front of her.
"You have no chance to run anymore!"
"Fuck! If you escape again, you will be punished!"
The two men shouted at Suzanne and were to catch her. Suzanne instinctively raised her hands to fight, but it did not work at all. She were caught by the two in less than a second.
"Help, help!" Suzanne shouted instinctively. At this moment, the man who saved her just now came out and punched the men at an extremely fast speed. They all fell to the ground in pain, while Suzanne fell to the ground because of inertia.
"Run!" The man shouted at her and ran away with her.
"Catch her!" The two men ran after them. Suzanne ran instinctively, but the previous exhaustion and the tension made her tired, and she fell down immediately.
When the man saw this, he picked her up and continued to run.
...
On the Minjiang Dam, Suzanne and the man leaned against each other.
"Thanks for saving!" Suzanne expressed her gratitude gratefully. If the man hadn't save her, the consequences could be disastrous!
The man looked at her and waved his hand: "It's okay, but why did they catch you?"
"My uncle owes them a loan shark, and they want to arrest me to pick up customers to pay off the debt!"
"What?" The man looked back at Suzanne, and Suzanne smiled at him, feeling embarrassed. She noticed that the man had covered his face with a scarf, revealing his beautiful eyes.
"Why did you cover your face?" Suzanne frowned, "You're a thief?!"
Offended, the man asked: "Does a thief wear a mask?" After he got up, he was about to leave.
"Hey! " Suzanne wanted to stop him, but immediately screamed for she realized that her legs and arms were bleeding.
"Are you injured?" Having found no dressing materials, the man pulled the scarf off his face and said: "Pack it up, and then go home!" Then he threw it to her , turned his head and walked forward.
“Thanks!” Suzanne reached out to grab the scarf, but a gust of wind blew and the scarf was scraped away! "Gosh!" She failed to catch it. When the man heard this, he looked back at Suzanne who was surprised now: "Gary? Are you the super star Gary?"
The man helplessly stretched out his hand and rubbed his face, then walked back to Suzanne's side and squatted down: "You should have not recognized me!"
Suzanne blinked, and quickly put on a smile: “Um...All right! Maybe I made a mistake. You are just a guy who looks similar to Gary. Your eyes are not as big as his, and...you are not so handsome as well!" Suzanne pretended to know nothing about him.
He did not mind it.
Suzanne said excitedly: "I'm your fan!"
The man reached out and touched his chin a few times: "You’d better not reveal what happened today !"
Suzanne agreed vigorously: "No worry!"
Gary smiled, holding Suzanne’s hands and said: "Let's go, I'll take you to find a hotel nearby. Since you've been chased, it’s too dangerous to go home now."
Suzanne agreed gratefully, said in awkward : "Well... my money is in the bag. I just ran away, and I lost it... so can you lend me the accommodation fee?"
…
Due to the fact that Suzanne had the same ring, which meant that she might be the one whom Grandpa was looking for continually. If he found the ring, he would have probably no need to marry Grace. Jerry thereby started to search for the ring. He went to the yard and laid down in the grass with a flashlight in his mouth and kept rummaging with both hands, trying to ding the ring. If he knew that the ring would be the condition that will prevent his marrying Grace, he wouldn't throw it away! When he said that he would rather marry a wood than Grace, he thought of Suzanne whom he thought homely and not sexy, but she was better than Grace. He would marry Suzanne rather than Grace since marrying her will not end well. She was a selfless and greedy woman. Thinking of this, Jerry rummaged through the grass. In order not to attract grandpa's attention, he didn't even dare to ask a servant for help! When he finally found the ring, Jerry smiled in relief.
…
Matthew Mo, the grandpa, got up early in the morning and was going to the study to read the newspaper. As soon as he entered the room, he saw his grandson Jerry waiting there.
"So early? You wanna have a talk with me?"
"Yep, about my marriage."
"No negotiation."
"But grandpa, the owner of this ring has appeared!" Jerry said, showing the ring.
"Take me to see her!"
