A teenager from a humble family,
His life’s trajectory changed abruptly due to an unexpected encounter.
The heavens bestowed upon him the wealth he had always dreamed of,
Alleviating his life’s predicament.
But was this sudden windfall the beginning of happiness,
Or the prelude to disaster?
Volume 1: Sudden Windfall
Chapter 1: A Stroke of Luck
“Mom and Dad, I’m home!”
Lin Fei pushed open the door of his home and walked inside.
The pungent smell of medicine assaulted his senses,
And Lin Fei quickly covered his mouth and nose.
The room was dim and damp,
With only a few old appliances in the
simple room,
And a worn-out bed.
His mother lay on the bed,
Her face pale,
With tears in her eyes.
His father sat beside her,
Helpless and
full of worry.
Seeing Lin Fei return,
His father managed a faint smile,
And asked softly,
“Fei’er, are you hungry?
Have you eaten dinner?”
Lin Fei shook his head,
Put down his schoolbag,
Walked over and held his mother’s cold hand,
And asked with concern,
“Mom,
Are you alright?
What did the doctor say?”
His mother smiled and shook her head,
Her voice a little hoarse,
“I’m fine,
It’s just an old ailment,
I’ll be fine after some rest.
Go eat quickly,
Don’t starve yourself.”
Lin Fei knew that
his mother was trying to put him at ease by downplaying her condition.
His mother had been seriously ill and
had been hospitalized for
half a year,
requiring a lot of money every day.
To pay for his mother’s treatment,
His father had sold everything valuable in the house,
And incurred significant debt.
Now,
The family’s financial situation had reached rock bottom.
Lin Fei’s nose pricked,
And his eyes became slightly moist.
He knew how much
suffering his parents had endured for his mother’s treatment.
He secretly vowed to
study hard,
earn a lot of money in the future,
and give his parents a better life.
At this moment,
His father came out of the room,
Carried a steaming bowl of noodles from the kitchen,
And handed it to Lin Fei,
Saying,
“Eat quickly.
After you’re done,
get some rest early.”
Lin Fei took the noodles,
And smelling their enticing aroma,
His stomach rumbled uncontrollably.
He wolfed down the noodles,
And cast a grateful look at his father.
That night,
Lin Fei lay in bed,
Tossing and turning, unable to sleep.
His mother’s pale face,
And his father’s helpless sighs,
kept replaying in his mind.
He knew that
his mother’s illness required money,
a lot of money.
But he was just a student,
what could he do?
The next day,
Lin Fei got up early,
Washed up,
And prepared to go to school.
While having breakfast,
His father pulled out an envelope from his pocket,
and handed it to Lin Fei,
saying,
“Fei’er,
This is your living expenses for this month.
Spend it wisely.”
Lin Fei took the envelope,
And feeling the thin wad of money inside,
his heart felt heavy.
He knew this was
his father’s hard-earned money.
Lin Fei arrived at school and
walked into the classroom.
The classroom was already full of students,
all of them diligently engaged in morning study.
Lin Fei found his seat and sat down,
Took out his textbook,
and prepared to start his morning study.
Just then,
A girl dressed in designer clothes,
and fashionably styled,
walked up to Lin Fei’s desk,
raised her head proudly,
and said dismissively,
“Lin Fei,
I heard your family is very poor, right?
You can’t even afford your tuition fees?”
Lin Fei looked up and
saw the girl in front of him.
It was the class study representative,
named Li Xue.
Li Xue,
relying on her family’s wealth and influence,
often bullied students from poorer families.
Lin Fei had long disliked her.
Lin Fei took a deep breath,
suppressed his anger,
and said coldly,
“Li Xue,
what does my business have to do with you?
Please move aside!”
Upon hearing this,
Li Xue became even more arrogant and
said sarcastically,
“Oh,
the poor boy is quite defiant!
Let me tell you,
if you don’t pay your tuition soon,
the school will expel you!
At that time,
I’ll see what face you have left to stay in school!”
The surrounding classmates looked at Li Xue’s words
and cast mocking glances.
Lin Fei felt a burning sensation on his face.
Shame and anger intertwined,
making him wish he could disappear into the ground.
Just then,
A tall and handsome boy walked up to Li Xue,
pulled her aside,
and said impatiently,
“Li Xue,
that’s enough!
Don’t go too far!”
This boy was named Zhang Yang,
the class sports representative,
and Lin Fei’s good friend.
Seeing Zhang Yang defending Lin Fei,
Li Xue’s face turned ashen.
She stomped her foot,
gave Lin Fei a fierce glare,
and turned to leave.
Zhang Yang patted Lin Fei on the shoulder,
and comforted him,
“Ignore her.
She’s just jealous of your good grades.”
Lin Fei managed a faint smile,
and said gratefully,
“Thank you,
Zhang Yang.”
The morning classes finally ended.
Lin Fei walked out of the classroom,
preparing to head to the cafeteria for lunch.
As he reached the stairwell,
he spotted a familiar figure—Li Xue.
Li Xue was proudly chatting with a few girls,
occasionally letting out shrill laughter.
Lin Fei quickened his pace,
wanting to leave quickly.
Unexpectedly,
Li Xue saw Lin Fei and
actually came to greet him.
“Lin Fei,
wait up!”
Lin Fei stopped,
and asked with a frown,
“What else do you want?”
Li Xue walked up to Lin Fei,
pulled out a bank card from her pocket,
held it up high,
and said proudly,
“Poor boy,
take a good look.
This is the pocket money my dad gave me.
It has one hundred thousand yuan in it!
How about that?
Jealous?”
Lin Fei looked at Li Xue’s face,
full of superiority,
and felt disgusted.
He said coldly,
“Not jealous.
I advise you to focus on your studies,
and stop showing off all day!”
Upon hearing this,
Li Xue’s face turned green with anger.
She pointed at Lin Fei’s nose and
cursed,
“You!
You ungrateful pauper!
I’m being nice to you,
and you dare to lecture me?
Do you believe I can have my dad expel you!”
Lin Fei didn’t want to argue with her,
and turned to leave.
Seeing this,
Li Xue became even more enraged.
She grabbed Lin Fei’s arm and
unrelentingly said,
“Want to leave?
No way!
If you don’t apologize to me today,
I won’t let you go!”
Lin Fei forcefully shook off Li Xue’s hand,
and said in a cold voice,
“Let go of me!”
Li Xue was thrown off,
stumbled,
and dropped the bank card on the ground.
Before she could pick it up,
they heard a “crack” as
Lin Fei stomped on the bank card.
Li Xue was stunned.
She looked at the shattered bank card on the ground,
and burst into tears,
“You!
You dared to stomp on my bank card!
You pay me back!
You pay me back!”
Lin Fei looked at Li Xue,
who was crying profusely,
without a hint of pity in his heart.
He said indifferently,
“It’s just a broken card.
What’s there to cry about?
At most,
I’ll compensate you with another one.”
“Compensate?
What do you have to compensate with?
You pauper!
Do you know how much money is in this card?
One hundred thousand yuan!
You won’t earn that much in your lifetime!”
Li Xue yelled hoarsely.
Lin Fei chuckled contemptuously,
and said,
“One hundred thousand yuan?
In my eyes,
it’s worth nothing!”
With that,
Lin Fei left without looking back.
Li Xue watched Lin Fei’s receding back,
stomping her feet in anger.
The surrounding classmates were also stunned by the sudden turn of events.
They never expected that
the usually timid Lin Fei would dare to do something like this.
Lin Fei went to the cafeteria,
bought a bun at random,
and sat in a corner eating silently.
He knew that
he had caused trouble this time,
and Li Xue would definitely not let it go.
However,
he didn’t regret it.
After breakfast,
Lin Fei returned to the classroom.
As soon as he entered,
he saw the class homeroom teacher standing on the podium with a dark expression.
Beside him stood a tearful Li Xue,
and her father.
Li Xue’s father was a burly,
well-dressed middle-aged man in a suit.
His face was grim,
clearly the type of domineering CEO who brooks no argument.
Lin Fei’s heart sank,
knowing that
the situation had escalated.
When the homeroom teacher saw Lin Fei enter,
he slammed the table and
asked angrily,
“Lin Fei!
Come here!”
Lin Fei walked onto the podium with trepidation,
keeping his head down,
silent.
The homeroom teacher pointed at the shattered card in Li Xue’s hand and
asked,
“What’s going on?
Tell me,
did you stomp on Li Xue’s bank card?”
Lin Fei looked up,
glanced at the shattered card on the ground,
and calmly replied,
“Yes.”
The homeroom teacher trembled with anger.
He pointed at Lin Fei and
cursed,
“You!
You are lawless!
Do you know how much money is in this card?
One hundred thousand yuan!
What do you have to compensate with!”
Lin Fei looked up,
stared directly into the homeroom teacher’s eyes,
and said,
“Teacher,
she provoked me first.
I was merely acting in self-defense.”
“Self-defense?
You call this self-defense!
You stomped on someone’s bank card and
still dare to call it self-defense!
I think you want to be expelled!”
The homeroom teacher roared.
At this moment,
Li Xue’s father stepped forward,
looked at Lin Fei coldly,
and said,
“Kid,
I won’t waste words with you.
You will apologize to my daughter immediately,
and compensate one hundred thousand yuan.
Then,
this matter will be dropped.
Otherwise,”
He paused,
a hint of ruthlessness flashing in his eyes,
“Otherwise,
I’ll make sure you regret it!”
Lin Fei looked at the arrogant man,
and a nameless rage surged within him.
He sneered,
and said,
“Apologize?
Compensate?
Sorry,
neither interests me.”
“You!
You dare to refuse me?”
Li Xue’s father’s face turned ashen with anger.
He pointed at Lin Fei,
unable to speak.
Lin Fei said calmly,
“I’m not refusing you.
I’m telling you to get out!”
The entire room was shocked by this statement!
The homeroom teacher quickly stepped forward to pull Lin Fei back,
giving him meaningful glances.
Li Xue’s father was so enraged by Lin Fei’s words that he almost choked.
He pointed at Lin Fei,
trembling,
and said,
“Good!
Good for you,
you arrogant brat!
You wait.
I will definitely make you regret this!”
With that,
he flicked his sleeve,
and stormed out of the classroom with Li Xue.
The homeroom teacher looked at Lin Fei,
and sighed with disappointment,
“Lin Fei, oh Lin Fei,
you’ve really stirred up a hornet’s nest this time!
Li Xue’s father is no ordinary person.
He’s a well-known entrepreneur in the city!
Hurry up and apologize to him,
otherwise,
your studies will be over!”
Lin Fei shook his head,
and said firmly,
“Teacher,
I did nothing wrong.
I will not apologize.”
The homeroom teacher looked at Lin Fei’s stubborn gaze,
and sighed helplessly,
knowing that
nothing more could be said.
After school,
Lin Fei returned home.
As soon as he entered,
he saw his father sitting on the sofa,
his expression solemn.
“Fei’er,
come here.
Dad has something to tell you.”
His father said in a deep voice.
Lin Fei’s heart tightened,
knowing that
his father must already know what happened at school.
He walked over and sat beside his father.
His father looked at him,
his eyes full of worry and reproach,
and said,
“Fei’er,
how could you do such a thing!
Li Xue’s father has already called home!
Do you know who he is?
We can’t afford to offend him!”
Lin Fei lowered his head,
and said softly,
“Dad,
she bullied me first.
I just…”
“Just what!
You dare to talk back!”
His father stood up abruptly,
and said angrily,
“Do you know how much debt we’ve accumulated to treat your mother’s illness!
Now you’ve gotten into this kind of trouble.
What do you expect your mother and I to do!”
Lin Fei looked up,
and saw his father’s tired and despairing face,
which pained him deeply.
He knew that
his father was right.
The family could no longer withstand any more turmoil.
He lowered his head,
and said guiltily,
“Dad,
I’m sorry.
I was wrong.”
Seeing Lin Fei’s attitude of admitting his mistake,
his father’s anger gradually subsided.
He sighed,
sat down again,
and said helplessly,
“Forget it.
It’s done now.
Talking more is useless.
Hurry up and apologize to Li Xue’s father,
resolve this matter,
okay?”
Lin Fei hesitated for a moment,
and finally nodded,
saying,
“Okay,
Dad.
I’ll listen to you.”
The next day,
Lin Fei mustered up the courage,
and went to Li Xue’s doorstep.
He took a deep breath,
and rang the doorbell.
A middle-aged woman dressed in a maid’s uniform opened the door.
Seeing Lin Fei,
a hint of confusion flickered in her eyes.
“Excuse me,
who are you looking for?”
Lin Fei said respectfully,
“Auntie,
hello.
I’m looking for Li Xue’s father,
President Li.”
The maid sized Lin Fei up and down,
and seeing his simple attire,
a trace of disdain appeared in her eyes.
“Wait a moment.
I’ll go inform him.”
The maid closed the door,
and after a short while,
opened it again.
“President Li will see you.
However,
I warn you,
be polite!”
Lin Fei walked into the house,
and was stunned by the luxurious sight before him.
A spacious and bright living room,
European-style sofas,
exquisite chandeliers,
everything showcased the owner’s wealth and taste.
Li Xue’s father sat on the sofa,
with Li Xue,
whose eyes were red and swollen from crying,
beside him.
Seeing Lin Fei enter,
Li Xue’s father let out a cold snort,
and gestured for Lin Fei to sit down.
“Speak,
what do you want from me?”
Li Xue’s father’s tone was icy,
with a hint of impatience.
Lin Fei took a deep breath,
gathered his courage,
and said,
“President Li,
I’m sorry.
I was impulsive yesterday.
I apologize to you and Li Xue.”
Li Xue’s father sneered,
and said,
“Apologize?
Is that all?
Who will pay for my card!”
Lin Fei gritted his teeth,
pulled the envelope containing his living expenses from his pocket,
handed it to Li Xue’s father,
and said,
“President Li,
this is my living expenses for this month.
Although it’s not much,
I will definitely find a way to repay the rest to you.”
Li Xue’s father glanced at the thin envelope,
and laughed contemptuously,
“This little money?
Are you trying to bribe a beggar!
Let me tell you,
I don’t want this!”
He pointed at the shattered card in Li Xue’s hand and
said,
“I want you to compensate one hundred thousand yuan!
Not a penny less!”
Lin Fei’s face instantly turned pale.
One hundred thousand yuan!
This was simply an astronomical sum!
He lowered his head,
remained silent for a long time,
and finally looked up,
and said firmly,
“President Li,
I truly can’t afford this much money right now.
Please give me some time.
I will work hard to earn the money and
repay you!”
Li Xue’s father let out a cold snort,
and said,
“Time?
I give you time,
who gives me time!
Let me tell you,
my patience is limited!
If you still can’t come up with the money,
then get out of my company!”
Lin Fei was stunned.
What?
Company?
How did he mention the company?
Li Xue’s father saw the doubt in Lin Fei’s eyes,
and smiled smugly,
saying,
“I forgot to tell you,
your father
is currently working in my company.
You bullied my daughter like this.
Tell me,
should I not give him some punishment?”
Lin Fei’s face instantly turned deathly pale.
He stood up abruptly,
and asked angrily,
“You!
You are despicable!”
Li Xue’s father burst into laughter,
and said,
“Despicable?
What you call despicable,
I call a tactic!
Kid,
don’t refuse a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit!
I’m giving you one last chance.
Apologize to my daughter immediately,
and give me the money!
Otherwise,
your father’s job will be gone!”
Lin Fei looked at Li Xue’s father’s ugly face,
his anger burning.
He clenched his fists tightly,
his fingernails digging deep into his flesh.
Just then,
a crisp voice rang out:
“Stop!”
Lin Fei turned his head and
saw an incredibly beautiful woman descending the stairs.
She exuded an air of noble elegance,
and every smile and glance held a captivating charm.
The woman walked up to Lin Fei,
looked at him,
then turned to Li Xue’s father and
said,
“Uncle Li,
be merciful.
They’re just children.
Why make things so difficult?”
Li Xue’s father’s face immediately lit up with a smile upon seeing the beautiful woman.
He said respectfully,
“Oh,
it’s Miss Lin!
Why have you come down?
This small matter doesn’t require your attention!”
The woman smiled faintly,
and said,
“Since it’s a small matter,
then let it end here.
As for that card,
I’ll pay for it,
no matter how much it costs.”
Saying that,
she took out a bank card from her bag,
and handed it to Li Xue’s father.
Li Xue’s father’s eyes lit up upon seeing the bank card,
and he quickly took it,
saying respectfully,
“Miss Lin is truly generous!
Since you’ve spoken,
then this matter is settled!”
The woman nodded,
then turned to Lin Fei and
said,
“Let’s go.”
Lin Fei was stunned.
Who was this beautiful woman?
And why was she helping him?
He numbly followed the beautiful woman out of Li Xue’s house.
At the entrance,
the woman stopped,
turned around,
looked at Lin Fei,
and smiled,
“Your name is Lin Fei, right?
Nice to meet you.”
Lin Fei came to his senses,
and said a little embarrassed,
“Thank you.
Why did you help me?”
The woman smiled,
and said,
“It’s nothing.
I just can’t stand people who bully others with their power.
Oh,
by the way,
take this card.
It has one hundred thousand yuan in it.
Consider it compensation.”
Lin Fei looked at the bank card in his hand in surprise,
and repeatedly waved his hands,
saying,
“No,
I can’t accept your money!”
The woman insisted on putting the card into Lin Fei’s hand,
and said,
“Take it.
To me,
this amount of money is nothing.
If you truly feel indebted,
consider it a loan from me,
and repay me when you have the money.”
Lin Fei looked at the bank card in his hand,
his heart filled with mixed emotions.
He knew what
this hundred thousand yuan meant to him.
He looked at the beautiful woman gratefully,
and asked,
“What’s your name?
How can I contact you in the future?”
The woman smiled mysteriously,
and said,
“My name is Lin Wan’er.
We will meet again.”
With that,
Lin Wan’er turned and left,
leaving Lin Fei with a beautiful and mysterious silhouette.
Lin Fei looked at the bank card in his hand,
then at the direction Lin Wan’er had disappeared,
his heart filled with confusion and bewilderment.
Who exactly was
this Lin Wan’er?
He took a deep breath,
and clutched the bank card tightly in his hand.
With this money,
his mother’s medical expenses would be covered,
and his father’s job would be safe.
He suddenly realized that
his life seemed to have changed drastically because of Lin Wan’er’s appearance.
He didn’t know
whether this sudden windfall was a blessing or a curse.
He only knew that
from this day forward,
he would strive to change his own destiny!
Lin Fei returned home with the bank card.
He told his parents the whole story.
Upon hearing this news,
his father was so moved that tears streamed down his face.
His mother also showed a long-lost smile.
“Fei’er,
thank you so much to that Miss Lin!
You must thank her properly!”
His mother said gratefully.
Lin Fei nodded,
and said,
“Mom,
don’t worry.
I will definitely find an opportunity to repay her.”
With this hundred thousand yuan,
the family’s financial crisis was finally resolved.
His father used the money to pay his mother’s medical bills at the hospital,
and also paid off some of the outstanding debt.
The atmosphere at home also became relaxed and joyful.
Lin Fei also returned to his normal study life.
He studied even harder,
hoping to repay his parents with excellent grades.
On the weekend,
Lin Fei went to an internet cafe near the school.
He wanted to search for Lin Wan’er’s information online,
and see if he could find her contact details.
He turned on the computer,
and entered the name “Lin Wan’er.”
The search results showed that
Lin Wan’er was the daughter of a major conglomerate in the city,
with a net worth of billions.
Lin Fei was surprised by this result.
He never expected that
Lin Wan’er would have such a prominent background.
He continued searching,
and suddenly,
a striking headline caught his eye:
“Lin Wan’er Kidnapped!”
Lin Fei’s heart sank,
and he clicked on the link.
The news report stated that
Lin Wan’er had been kidnapped three days prior,
and her whereabouts were still unknown.
The kidnappers were demanding a ransom of one hundred million!
Lin Fei was shocked and
worried after reading the news.
He never imagined that
the beautiful woman who had helped him would encounter such misfortune.
He looked at the bank card Lin Wan’er had given him in his hand,
and made a decision.
He would find Lin Wan’er and
rescue her!
He knew that
doing so was dangerous,
but he couldn’t stand by and watch his benefactor get into trouble.
Lin Fei left the internet cafe and
went to a secluded corner.
He took out his phone,
and dialed an unfamiliar number.
The call connected,
and a deep, hoarse voice asked,
“Who?”
Lin Fei took a deep breath,
and said,
“I am Lin Fei.
I want to talk to you about Lin Wan’er’s matter.”
There was a moment of silence on the other end,
then the voice asked,
“Who are you?
How do you know Lin Wan’er?”
Lin Fei said,
“I am her friend.
I know where she is.”
There was silence again on the other end.
After a long while,
a cold voice replied,
“What is your purpose?”
Lin Fei said,
“I have no ulterior motives.
I just want to save her.
I can help you find her,
but
you must guarantee her safety.”
The other end suddenly burst into laughter,
the laughter filled with disdain and mockery.
“Hahaha!
Kid,
who do you think you are?
You,
trying to save someone?
I advise you not to meddle in other people’s business,
otherwise,
you’ll regret it!”
Lin Fei’s heart tightened,
knowing that
the other party was not to be trifled with.
But he did not back down,
and said firmly,
“I’m not joking.
If you don’t believe me,
I can tell you a secret,
a secret that only Lin Wan’er knows!”
There was silence on the other end.
Lin Fei knew that
he had hit the mark.
He took a deep breath,
and said,
“Lin Wan’er has
a birthmark on her body,
shaped like a rose,
on her left arm!”
The voice on the other end suddenly became agitated:
“You!
How do you know that!”
Lin Fei said calmly,
“I told you,
I am her friend.
Now,
do you believe me?”
There was silence again on the other end.
This time,
the silence lasted longer.
After a long while,
a slightly hoarse voice replied,
“Alright!
I believe you!
Where are you now?
Let’s meet and talk!”
Lin Fei said,
“No,
I can’t tell you my location right now.
First,
tell me,
where is Lin Wan’er?
Is she safe?”
The other end hesitated,
and said,
“She is very safe,
just a minor skin injury.
She is in an abandoned factory on the outskirts of the city.”
Lin Fei’s heart finally settled.
He said,
“Okay,
listen.
You take her away from there immediately,
and go to the People’s Square in the city center.
I’ll be waiting for you there.”
The other end sounded hesitant:
“People’s Square?
Too many people there.
It’s not safe!”
Lin Fei said,
“This is your only chance.
If you don’t come,
I’ll report this matter to the police!”
The other end responded angrily,
“You dare to threaten me!
You wait!
I’m coming over now!”
Then,
the call was hung up.
Lin Fei took a deep breath,
his heart filled with tension and anxiety.
He knew that
he was playing a dangerous gamble.
However,
to save Lin Wan’er,
he had no other choice.
He walked quickly to People’s Square,
found a hidden corner,
and hid.
He nervously scanned the crowd,
waiting for the kidnappers to appear.
Time ticked by,
and Lin Fei’s heart was in his mouth.
He began to doubt if he had been deceived.
Just as he was about to give up,
a black sedan stopped in the center of the square.
The car door opened,
and two men in black got out.
They were escorting a person with their head covered in a black cloth,
and quickly walked towards the square.
Lin Fei recognized at a glance that
the person being escorted was
Lin Wan’er!
His heart leaped with joy.
Just as he was about to step out,
he suddenly saw a familiar figure.
It was Li Xue’s father!
Li Xue’s father was standing in a corner of the square,
looking sinisterly in their direction.
Lin Fei’s heart tightened.
He immediately understood everything.
It turned out that
the kidnapper of Lin Wan’er was
Li Xue’s father!
He clenched his fists tightly,
and the flames of anger burned in his heart.
This despicable wretch had actually done something so heinous out of revenge!
He knew that
he couldn’t wait any longer.
He took out his phone,
and dialed the emergency number.
“Hello,
is this the police station?
I want to report a crime!
Someone has been kidnapped in People’s Square!”
Lin Fei hung up the phone,
took a deep breath,
and rushed out.
He ran to Li Xue’s father and
asked indignantly,
“President Li!
You kidnapped Lin Wan’er!
Why did you do this!”
Li Xue’s father was startled by Lin Fei’s sudden appearance.
He didn’t expect that
Lin Fei would be here!
He quickly composed himself,
and sneered,
“Kid,
you’re walking right into the jaws of death!
Since you’ve come to my door willingly,
don’t blame me for being rude!”
With that,
he gave a look to the men in black beside him.
The two men in black immediately rushed towards Lin Fei.
Lin Fei’s heart tightened,
knowing that
he was no match for them.
However,
he could not back down!
He clenched his fists tightly,
ready to fight.
Just then,
police sirens wailed.
The police had arrived!
Li Xue’s father’s face changed drastically.
He hadn’t expected that
Lin Fei would call the police!
He glared at Lin Fei fiercely,
and said to the men in black,
“Retreat!”
The two men in black immediately let go of Lin Wan’er,
jumped into the car,
and fled.
Lin Fei ran to Lin Wan’er’s side,
and tore off the black cloth from her head.
When Lin Wan’er saw Lin Fei,
her eyes were filled with surprise and gratitude.
“Lin Fei!
You saved me!”
Lin Fei was relieved to see Lin Wan’er safe.
He helped Lin Wan’er up,
and said,
“It’s good that you’re okay.
How are you?
Are you injured?”
Lin Wan’er shook her head,
and said,
“I’m fine.
Where is that bad guy?
Did he escape?”
Lin Fei pointed in the direction Li Xue’s father had fled,
and said,
“He escaped.
However,
the police are here now.
He can’t get away.”
At this moment,
the police arrived at the scene and
took Lin Fei and Lin Wan’er to the police station to give their statements.
At the police station,
Lin Wan’er excitedly recounted the events to the police.
She told the police that
Lin Fei had saved her,
and provided important clues.
After listening,
the police praised Lin Fei profusely.
Lin Fei also explained to the police how he had learned of Lin Wan’er’s kidnapping and
how he had dealt with the kidnappers.
Based on the clues provided by Lin Fei,
the police quickly identified Li Xue’s father.
They immediately launched an arrest operation.
That evening,
Li Xue’s father was apprehended and
brought to justice.
Lin Wan’er’s parents also rushed to the police station.
Upon seeing Lin Wan’er safe and sound,
they hugged her and cried with joy.
Lin Wan’er’s father stepped forward,
shook Lin Fei’s hand tightly,
and said gratefully,
“Lin Fei,
thank you so much!
If it weren’t for you,
my daughter would have been in danger!
You are truly our family’s benefactor!”
Lin Fei said a little embarrassed,
“Uncle,
you are too kind.
This is what I should have done.”
Lin Wan’er’s father took out his checkbook,
wrote a check,
and handed it to Lin Fei,
saying,
“Lin Fei,
this is my gratitude to you.
Please accept it!”
Lin Fei glanced at the number on the check.
It was one million!
He shook his head in surprise,
and said,
“Uncle,
I cannot accept your money.
I saved Lin Wan’er not for money.”
Seeing Lin Fei refuse,
Lin Wan’er’s father admired his character even more.
He smiled and
said,
“Lin Fei,
I know you are not doing this for money.
However,
this is a token of our appreciation.
If you don’t accept it,
we will feel uneasy!”
Lin Wan’er also stepped forward,
took Lin Fei’s arm,
and said,
“Yes,
Lin Fei,
please accept it!
This is my father’s token of appreciation!”
Seeing Lin Wan’er’s sincere eyes,
Lin Fei hesitated for a moment,
and finally accepted the check.
He knew that
this sum of money was too important to his family!
Lin Fei returned home with the one million check.
His parents were shocked to see the check.
Lin Fei told his parents the whole story.
Upon hearing this,
his father said excitedly,
“Fei’er,
you’ve done a great deed!
One million!
With this money,
your mother’s illness will no longer be a concern!”
His mother also shed tears of excitement.
She looked at Lin Fei,
and said with satisfaction,
“Fei’er,

Mom is proud of you!”
Lin Fei looked at his parents’ happy faces,
and felt a sense of accomplishment.
He knew that
this risky adventure was worth it!
With this one million,
Lin Fei’s family was completely out of their predicament.
His mother received the best medical treatment,
and her health gradually recovered.
His father also quit his job to focus on taking care of his mother at home.
Lin Fei continued his studies,
dedicating all his energy to learning.
He knew that
