Chapter 117 Don't Let Fear Swallow Your Life
After walking a certain distance, Zhao Lu, who had kept his head lowered, finally plucked up the courage to look up and said, "Mu Xing, thank you just now."
She was really, really grateful to Mu Xing.
If it weren't for Mu Xing, her end today would be the same as before, being wantonly humiliated and trampled by Cheng Yajing.
Mu Xing held his hood, looked at Zhao Lu and said seriously: "You're welcome, but if you encounter this kind of situation again, you must learn to fight back."
"I...I don't dare..."
Zhao Lu bit her lip and muttered: "Cheng Yajing knows about me. If I don't follow her wishes, she will definitely spread the word. That matter... I don't want others to know."
Mu Xing didn't know why Zhao Lu was threatened by Cheng Yajing, but everyone has the right to protect their own secrets.
She didn't ask any more questions, just said: "The more scared you are, the more unscrupulous she will be, and she will even keep threatening you to do things that break the bottom line. It will be too late to regret your cowardice now when you can't bear it anymore. So, do it as soon as possible."
Facing it and working hard to solve it is the only way to get out of the dilemma. Don't let fear eat up your life."
Zhao Lu looked at Mu Xing in surprise.
She didn't expect that such a thorough persuasion would come from the mouth of this extremely innocent girl, who obviously looked so immature and ignorant.
Her persuasion made sense, but she didn't have enough courage to face it yet, so she could only nodded silently.
Mu Xing also stopped clicking and didn't say anything more. She took out her cell phone and called her uncle.
Across the street, a man in a dark suit stood there quietly.
He is tall and straight, has a cool and dignified temperament, has an outstanding demeanor, and his appearance is extremely handsome. Even on the street where people come and go, he is still the most dazzling presence.
Passersby frequently looked back at him, and a girl tried to step forward to ask for WeChat, but before she even got close, she was frightened back by the respectful and aloof Yuntuo standing behind him.
The streets were bustling with people, but the area where he stood was so quiet that it seemed like another world.
The man's stunning face was extremely indifferent, his eyes were fixed on the bulky figure gradually moving away, and the cell phone in his trouser pocket suddenly rang.
He took out his cell phone and glanced down at it. When he connected it, he looked at the figure in the distance again, and heard the little girl's excited voice in his ears: "Uncle!"
The man said calmly: "What's wrong?"
The soft voice was filled with a smile: "Uncle, are you on your way home? My classmates and I will have dinner outside, so you don't have to wait for me."
The man thanked him and hung up the phone.
The heavy figure in the distance had disappeared around the corner. He withdrew his gaze and looked at the two girls kneeling on the street across the street. He coldly ordered Yuntuo: "Check those two people."

After dinner, Mu Xing continued to hand out flyers on the street until his part-time job ended at nine o'clock.
Mu Xing felt very happy after getting the 300 yuan salary from her part-time job. She didn't expect to earn so much money part-time. She used to collect herbs in the mountains for three days and could not sell them for 100 yuan!
After Zhao Lu received her salary, she immediately said to Mu Xing: "Mu Xing, let's go, I'll treat you to milk tea."
Mu Xing had seen her classmates drink milk tea, but she had never drank it before, so she nodded happily.
Zhao Lu took Mu Xing to the milk tea shop, pointed to the price list and asked Mu Xing, "Which one do you like to drink?"
There were so many types of milk tea that Mu Xing couldn't understand it at all, so she ordered the cheapest one. She just took out her phone to pay, but Zhao Lu had already paid first and ordered the most expensive one.
The clerk handed them the prepared milk tea, Zhao Lu gave the expensive cup to Mu Xing, and the two walked out holding the milk tea.
Mu Xing couldn't wait to take a sip of the milk tea. It was rich and silky, a taste she had never tasted before. She opened her eyes wide with excitement, "So milk tea tastes like this, it tastes good!"
Zhao Lu smiled and said, "If you like to drink, I will treat you next time."
Mu Xing waved her little hand to refuse, "No, no, no, as the old saying goes, it is disrespectful to come and not to reciprocate. I should be the one to invite you next time."
After taking two sips of milk tea, she smiled at Zhao Lu again and said with some discussion: "If you go part-time in the future, can you take me with you?"
Zhao Lu looked at Mu Xing and asked her doubts: "You shouldn't be short of money, why do you still work part-time?"
"I'm short of money!" Mu Xing said with a sad face, "Not only did I advance more than two months' salary from my uncle, but I also owe Qiongbao 50,000 yuan. I want to make money to pay her back."
In Zhao Lu's imagination, Mu Xing's life should be rich in food and clothing, and spend money like water. She didn't expect that it was actually so difficult and he had to borrow money to survive.
He immediately agreed: "Okay, no problem, I will call you whenever I go part-time in the future."
"Thank you!"
Mu Xing thanked her happily, and Zhao Lu responded with a smile and said, "I'm going to take the bus home, how about you?"
"I'm going home too, but there's no bus over to my uncle's house. I'm going to take the subway."
It's getting late. If she doesn't come home, my uncle should be worried.
"Well, then be careful on the road. I'll see you tomorrow."
After saying goodbye, Zhao Lu turned and walked towards the bus stop.
After Mu Xing watched her leave, he ran back to the milk tea shop and handed the milk tea in his hand to the clerk, "Please, give me another cup like this."
When she paid, she was dumbfounded. This was not the cheapest one she ordered, but the most expensive one in the store.
She didn’t expect Zhao Lu to be so kind to him. Next time she would also treat Zhao Lu to the most expensive drink!
Mu Xing put the milk tea she just bought into her small schoolbag and skipped towards the subway station, completely unaware of the slow-moving black luxury car behind her.
Yuntuo drove the car and reported to the man in the back seat: "Master Fu, it has been found out that the two girls just now are classmates of Miss Mu Xing, one is named Cheng Yajing and the other is Lin Miao.
Lin Miao's family situation is average. Her parents are ordinary workers. Cheng Yajing's family situation is pretty good. Her father is a small business owner who makes building materials and has a good relationship with Beihua's school leaders.
Relying on her father's relationship, she often bullied her classmates in school, and even teamed up with the girls in the class to isolate Miss Mu Xing. In other words, Miss Mu Xing was simple-minded, and she still didn't realize that she was being isolated by her classmates.
Also, the students in Beihua are now secretly spreading rumors that Miss Mu Xing is your lover, and the dirty words are very unpleasant. A few days ago, Miss Shen even beat a girl in order to defend Miss Mu Xing."
The man in the back seat listened to Yuntuo's report, his thin lips tightened and he said nothing, but a terrifying storm had already rolled up in his deep eyes.
Anyone who dares to bully him, ha, is good.
