"You're just a country bumpkin. You don't even have a proper job. Do you know what it means?"
"He works as a bad apprentice in the store every day. What qualifications does he have to fall in love with our Huihui?"
"You want to get married? Give me 500,000 yuan as a betrothal gift first. Otherwise, get out of my daughter's side and don't delay her happiness!"
...
On the ferry of the Yangtze River bank, Chen Rui leaned against the railings of the boat, and his mind was filled with his girlfriend's mother's sarcastic words.
These hurtful words were like blades, deeply piercing his heart, and he was in endless pain.
After graduating from college, Chen Rui became an apprentice in a painted studio. With a monthly salary of 2,000 yuan, he could only struggle on the line of food and clothing.
At this moment, she heard the bad news of her grandmother's late-stage liver cancer.
Chen Rui was so poor, but he couldn't afford to give the money to his grandmother. He could only wipe his tears in the middle of the night while working.
In order to see her grandmother's wish to get married before she died, Qin Hui, her girlfriend, who had been with her for half a year, was finally willing to take her to see her parents.
However, her girlfriend's mother's face was full of contempt.
Hehe... 500,000 yuan as a gift.
If he didn't eat or drink with his salary, he would earn 21 years.
Chen Rui gave a wry smile and looked at the yacht that was not far away. His eyes were full of envy.
The value of that yacht could at least make him get married hundreds of times.
Unfortunately, he was a poor man.
"If he doesn't have money, should I let him steal it?"
Money, this evil thing, sometimes it could really force people to death.
"Chen Rui, if my mother doesn't agree, we won't be happy. Let's break up."
At this moment, Chen Rui's phone rang. It was a WeChat message from his girlfriend.
Seeing this, Chen Rui's face turned pale.
He quickly picked up his phone and replied to a message, only to find that it had been pulled into the dark.
The red symbol was extremely eye-catching. In an instant, Chen Rui's head seemed to have been struck by lightning and went blank.
His fist was clenched tightly, and his face was pale and his eyes were as gray as death.
Money... it's money again!
Everything was because he was poor.
A moment ago, she had sworn to be her girlfriend, who had gone through the difficulties together. The next moment, she was like a stranger.
In the face of money, the so-called feelings were so vulnerable.
After a long while, Chen Rui took a deep breath and came to his senses.
He took out a white bracelet and looked at it with a bitter smile.
This bracelet was passed down from her grandmother's ancestors. Before she came here, her grandmother took it off and asked him to give it to her future wife.
But now it seemed that... there was no need.
"Crash!"
At this moment, the yacht moved quickly.
A huge wave in a row slammed into Chen Rui's boat, and the whole boat began to shake violently.
Chen Rui's body suddenly lost its balance, and he subconsciously tried to grab the railing.
The jade bracelet, as white as jade, bounced out of his hand and fell into the surging river.
"What the f*ck!"
Chen Rui immediately panicked.
She lost her girlfriend and couldn't fulfill her grandmother's wish. Now she even lost the bracelet that her grandmother had worn for a lifetime.
"I've been so unlucky in my whole life."
Chen Rui gritted his teeth and jumped over the railing without hesitation.
"Crash!"
The water was surging.
It was the middle of October, and the river water was cold and harsh.
Although it was very close to the shore, it was at least three or four meters deep because of the need to dock.
As far as the eye could see, it was full of surging undercurrents. It was extremely dangerous.
Under the water, there was even more chaos. There were countless whirlpools.
Chen Rui couldn't even control his body, let alone find a bracelet.
Before he could regret it, a dark current rolled over and slammed into a protruding rock with his body.
Chen Rui's vision went dark and he lost consciousness.
Blood continuously seeped out from his head and immediately melted into the water, disappearing without a trace.
Chen Rui's body gradually sank to the bottom of the water.
At this moment, a milky white light column rose from the bottom of the water and scared away the surrounding fish.
In the middle of the light was the bracelet passed down by Chen Ruizu!
The next moment, the bracelet turned into a milky-white flowing light that pierced through the water barrier and enveloped Chen Rui.
"Crack..."
The bracelet shattered.
However, the white light that enveloped Chen Rui grew stronger and completely dispelled the darkness at the bottom of the water.
...
At the No. 1 hospital in China.
In the corridor of the ward.
A tall, beautiful woman in a white pleated dress was talking to the nurse.
"I really don't know him. Why don't you believe me..."
The woman's delicate face was full of helplessness. She explained, "I only sent him to the hospital when I passed by the main road by the river and saw him floating on the shore."
The nurse's face was full of sarcasm. "I've seen so many people like you who shirked responsibility. If he had nothing to do with you, how could you be so kind as to send him to the hospital and pay the medical expenses?"
"Let me tell you, you can't leave before he wakes up, or we'll call the police!"
Seeing the nurse like this, the beautiful woman's eyes were full of anxiety.
The doctor said that Chen Rui not only had a severe concussion, but also had a serious lack of oxygen that led to organ failure. It was almost impossible for him to wake up...
Didn't that mean that she couldn't leave before that?
"Creak!"
At this moment, the door of the ward opened, and a figure stretched out and came out.
It was Chen Rui!
After the ball of white light dissipated the darkness, he regained consciousness.
After experiencing a life-and-death battle, Chen Rui's mentality had undergone a huge change.
He understood that in this life, other than life and death, nothing else was a big deal.
"Now that I've lost my girlfriend, I can find another one."
If he didn't have money, he could earn it with both hands. Why should he be desperate?
There was still a long way to go. As long as he was determined, there was nothing that he couldn't get through!
"Miss nurse, you misunderstood. It was indeed this lady who saved me."
Seeing the beautiful woman who had a dispute with the nurse outside the door, Chen Rui opened his mouth and said.
"You... How did you wake up?"
A look of disbelief appeared in the girl's beautiful eyes when she saw Chen Rui.
It should be noted that the doctor clearly said that the chance of Chen Ruizhe waking up was infinitely zero...
The nurse was even more shocked. Her mouth was wide open and she could not close it no matter how hard she tried.
The director had specifically warned him not to let this girl leave before the patient woke up, because the plot was too serious.
"Why did the patient suddenly come out safely in the blink of an eye?"
"Thank you for causing you so much trouble."
Chen Rui said gratefully, "My phone is in the river. I can't pay your medical expenses for the time being. If you have time, I'll go to the bank to get it for you."
"There's no need. It's fate if we meet."
Upon hearing this, the girl heaved a long sigh of relief and said, "I have something urgent to do. I have to go first. You should pay attention to your body and have a check-up in the hospital."
Now that the misunderstanding had been resolved, it was time for her to settle her own affairs.
"Wait..."
Chen Rui was touched and said softly, "Can you tell me your name?"
In this harsh and realistic society, meeting such a kind person was almost like winning the lottery. It should be cherished very much.
Compared to her, a girlfriend who gave up her relationship because of money was extremely vulgar.
"My name is Qin Wan'er."
The girl stretched out her hand and stroked her hair. She smiled gently and charmingly.
In Chen Rui's eyes, it was like a spring breeze caressing his face, refreshing his heart and soul. It was as if she was a fairy in a painting that was pure and otherworldly.
When Chen Rui's eyes inadvertently touched the bracelet on Qin Waner's wrist, a sudden message popped out!
"The ice ice ice king Green Jade Bracelet is a collection of the older generation. In the past 2,000 years, it was sold at Yanwan Province's Central Auction House. It was sold at 8 million yuan and was sold at 24 million yuan by the Sufu Auction House in Gang Province..."
What's going on?!
Chen Rui opened his mouth wide and could not help but read it out.
