SWNOVELS Chapter 3340
"Young Lady, you've gone too far!"
"That's right. I'm also a fan of Junior Alchemy Master. But his carriage really almost hit someone!"
"That's a human life! How could you not care at all?"
"The people who were in danger weren't her family, of course she wouldn't."
Hearing these doubts, Zoella's beautiful face grew darker and a hint of anger appeared, "Was I wrong? I was just speaking the truth, at first--"
At this moment, Junior Alchemy Master, Mattham reached out his hand and stopped Zoella's words.
Then he walked over to the mother and daughter with a smile on his face and said gently, "I apologize. It's because of my carelessness that I almost hit you both, I should apologize to you."
After that, Mattham bowed to the mother and daughter in front of everyone.
The scene turned into an uproar.
The mother and daughter were obviously shocked as well. They stood there in a daze and did not know how to react.
Mattham took out a yellow card from his pocket and handed it to the mother while saying, "I'm sorry, this card has 100,000 yuan stones inside. You could get it out when you enter Wood Fragrance Trading. Please accept it." "100,000 yuan stones!"
When the mother heard that number, she was extremely shocked. She quickly waved her hands and said, "That, that's too much. I cannot accept it. Please take it back."
"We're fine, we don't want it."
However, Mattham kept on insisting with a smile, "I was at fault. It's only right for me to compensate for it."
"If you don't accept it, it means that you wouldn't forgive me. I would have to keep on apologizing then."
"Ah, that... I don't mean that..." The mother didn't know how to explain.
At that moment, Mattham smiled and stuffed the card into her mother's hand, saying, "Since you didn't mean that, you should accept it then."
"Ah, I..." Her mother held the card and said gratefully, "Thank you, Mr. Chiang. Thank you very much."
Mattham waved his hand gently and turned around with a smile.
Halfway through, he saw Zoella, who was waiting by the side. He then smiled and said, "Miss Liang, if you don't mind, you can take my carriage and we can enter the city together." "Really? That's great. I don't mind, of course I wouldn't mind." Zoella got onto the carriage joyfully.
Then, the servant drove the carriage into Wood Fragrance City through the main gates.
Inside the carriage, Zoella looked at Mattham, who was sitting next to her, with a joyous face. Her cheeks were ruddy and she said, "Mr. Chiang, you weren't in the wrong earlier. Why did you have to apologize to those peasants?" Mattham glanced at Zoella and said with a chuckle, "The people talk. If I didn't do so, I cannot guarantee what would people say about it.
"Hrmph, what a bunch of gossiping fools." Zoella scolded.
Then, she said, "Mr. Chiang, it's fine if you just apologize. Why did you give them 100,000 yuan stones? Isn't it giving them too much?" "100,000 yuan, is that a lot?" Mattham chuckled.
Zoella explained, "Of course it's a lot. The annual income of normal people in Wood Fragrance City is just around 30,000-40,000 yuan stones. 100,000 yuan stones would be 3 times their nett profit, so of course it's a lot." Hearing this, Mattham narrowed his eyes and said in a low voice, "It's only right if it's a lot."
"Uh, this..." Zoella felt that Mattham's words had a different meaning. But she couldn't figure it out for the moment, so she didn't think about it anymore. Instead, she seized the opportunity to have a chat with the Junior Alchemy Master. At this moment, at the city gates, the onlookers watched as the carriage of the Junior Alchemy Master left, and they started discussing about it.
"As expected of the Junior Alchemy Master. He's really kind-hearted!"
"The Junior Alchemy Master is indeed the hope of the Alchemist Association."
"The mother and daughter are so lucky. In this way, they not only got to talk to the Junior Alchemy Master, and they also got 100,000 yuan stones for doing nothing at all! That's not a small amount!"
Many people at the scene praised the Junior Alchemy Master for his kindness. Of course, there were also many people who had their focus on the card with 100,000 yuan stones in envy.
In fact, Fade could vaguely see a few people staring at the mother and daughter for a while, and they were quietly approaching them.
This situation caused Fade's expression to sink. He raised his head and glanced in the direction where the Junior Alchemy Master's carriage had left.
After the chaos, everyone began to queue up once again and continued to enter the city through the small gates on both sides.
At this moment, Fade suddenly walked to the mother and daughter and shouted loudly, "If I hadn't blocked the whip for you just now, the both of you would've been dead."
"Er-" The mother was stunned, and her face was full of gratitude. "My lord, thank you for saving my life."
Fade just snorted and said, "What is it? Are you going to just say one sentence as your token of gratitude?"
"Ah, this..The mother paused for a moment, and then she seemed to think of something. She touched the card in her hand and said to Fade, "My lord, when we enter the city later on. I'll retrieve the money and properly show my gratitude." Fade laughed and said, "You don't have to bother to do so. I'll do it myself."
After that, Fade reached out and grabbed the card over.
"My lord, you, you..." The mother seemed a little anxious.
Fade said coldly, "What's wrong? Are you reluctant to give it up? Remember, if I hadn't helped you, you wouldn't have been able to keep your lives till now. How would you even get the money then?"
"I saved you both. This money belongs to me. It's not too much!"
After that, Fade deliberately waved his fist before the mother and daughter.
How could her mother dare to resist Fade? She could only say in a soft voice, "No, it's not too much. This, this is what you deserve."
"Good. I'll take this 100,000 yuan stone as a token of gratitude from you then."
Fade laughed out loud and kept the card in his arms.
The scene soon became noisy once again. Many on- lookers were giving Fade angry glares as they pointed at him and scolded him.
"That boy is simply too shameless. He took all the money that the Junior Alchemy Master gave them as compensation."
"Didn't he just block the whip? He actually took 100,000 yuan in one go. How crazily greedy of him."
"Ah, I've just met such a kind person like the Junior Alchemy Master. How would I have expected that I would see such a cruel one right after?"
In the face of all sorts of discussions and criticism, Fade didn't show any response. Instead, he said very arrogantly, "Don't talk behind my back. Let's fight face to face if you're upset." While he said that, Fade raised his fist.
When most of the passers-by saw that, they shut their mouths and turned their heads away. After all, no one wanted to get into trouble about something which had nothing to do with them. However, there were a few strong-willed passers-by who couldn't stand seeing it and rushed towards Fade.
"Boy, you've gone too far. Give the money back to them."
"You can't take their money away."
However, these "kind-hearted" passers-by couldn't even take a punch from Fade. They all fell to the ground in no time.
As a result, the doubts and critics were all gone in an instant.
Fade looked around and returned to his group with a proud face.
However, in a range of a few meters in front and behind himself, no one dared or wanted to go near him anymore, apart from Evelyne and Lenny, whom he had just saved.
At that moment, Lenny stared at Fade with a puzzled face. He seemed very curious about it.
Why did this hero, who had just acted bravely for himself, suddenly become so greedy and fierce that he would steal the money that belonged to the mother and daughter?
Of course, he just thought about those questions inside. For sure he wouldn't have the guts to speak it out loud.
As for Evelyne, after a moment of shock, she quickly thought of something, and her expression returned to normal and she stood beside Fade.
Then, in the silence, a group of people lined up waiting to enter the city.
Although the soldiers guarding the
city looked at Fade a few more
Panet
times because of what had happened just now, they didn't do anything else either. After they were done, all of them were allowed to enter the city.
After entering the city, Fade saw a teahouse on the roadside, and he went straight in with Lenny.
"Let's go. We've been in the line for so long. Let's go in and enjoy a cup of tea!"
After sitting down, Fade glanced at Evelyne who was beside him and said, "I'm hungry. Go and buy me something to eat!"
"Okay!" Evelyne nodded and left.
Fade sat in the teahouse and looked downstairs. He took out the card worth 100,000 yuan stones and waved it around in his hands.
Then he said loudly, "Waiter, serve me the most expensive tea in your teahouse. Remember, I want the most expensive one. I don't lack money." Fade's shout attracted many people's attention and everyone was all looking at him.
As for Fade, he found a few familiar faces among the people who looked over. They were the people who were lining up with them outside the city.
"It seems that there are many greedy people who aren't afraid of death!"
On the other side, after leaving the teahouse, Evelyne immediately went into the crowd and moved quickly.
A moment later, she found both the mother and daughter in front of a clinic.
At that moment, the mother was carrying her daughter while begging with a crying tone, "Doctor, I'm begging you. Please have a look at my daughter's condition. I—"
"As I said, your daughter's illness
าวน
requires 20,000 yuan stone for the medicines to be prescribed. I'll get you the medicines immediately if you bring the mother here. If you don't have the money, please get out and don't interrupt me in my business," The doctor said coldly.
"Doctor, you..The mother was still going to continue pleading.
The doctor seemed like he was getting impatient as he waved his hand, calling a strong man, who was a fighter to come, and the man was about to take action.
At this time, Evelyne rushed over, picked up the mother and daughter, and quickly left the clinic and went to an alley.
"Thank you The mother thanked her in a hurry, but when she saw Evelyne's face clearly, she couldn't help but feel a little stunned. "You, you are-"
As she spoke, a fearful look appeared on the mother's face as she stepped a few steps back with her daughter in her arms.
Seeing this, Evelyne took out a card and handed it to the mother. "There are 100,000 yuan stones in this card. You can retrieve the money in cash in Myriad Treasures Hall." "Ah, this..The mother was a little confused.
Evelyne took out another piece of
paper and handed it to her mother, saying, "This is the prescription. According to the prescription, she
should take the medicine very
three days for one month. Your daughter would be able to recover after that."
"What, what's going on? I-" The mother was really confused.
