A life of financial freedom

As the beautiful woman approached, Chu Fang could see clearly that she was a charming, mature woman.

Her black, lustrous hair was casually styled into a low bun, and she wore a simple yet elegant dress that accentuated her still-graceful figure.

The mature woman approached, wanting to hug the little girl in the lolita dress, but the latter crossed her arms and looked up at the sky at a forty-five-degree angle, letting out a soft humph.

"Xue'er..." the charming woman said, her lips rosy, "Mommy has been looking for you for so long, I was so worried."

"Your worry isn't my worry," the little girl in the lolita dress said, not forgiving her mother, still haughtily holding her head high.

"Mommy was wrong," the mature woman apologized upon seeing this.

"I forgive you..." the little girl in the lolita dress said, her face blossoming into a flower-like smile.

Then, the little girl rushed into the mature woman's arms, acting spoiled, humming and saying all sorts of things.

"Hey, have you guys forgotten I exist?" Chu Fang couldn't help but say, "I even bought your daughter Haagen-Dazs, is this how you treat your benefactor?"

At this moment, he was being restrained by several men in suits, as if he were some heinous villain.

The mature woman then remembered Chu Fang, quickly telling the bodyguards to release him, and apologizing repeatedly, "I'm so sorry, I've caused you trouble."

Chu Fang swung his arms, replying nonchalantly, "It certainly was troublesome."

He slightly tiptoed, looking down at the bodyguards with a sidelong glance, his eyes seeming to say, "It's not that I'm afraid of you guys, but I don't want to fight."

The bodyguards exchanged glances, their expressions unchanged.

Chu Fang: "..."

The little girl in the lolita dress whispered into her mother's ear about what had happened that afternoon, and the mature woman felt incredibly embarrassed, realizing she had repaid kindness with enmity.

The mature woman apologized, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry..."

"Forget it," Chu Fang said magnanimously, not wanting to dwell on it.

Since the little girl in the lolita dress's mother had come, he would take his leave. However, the mature woman insisted on thanking Chu Fang for saving her daughter and felt guilty for her recklessness, wanting to treat Chu Fang to a meal.

Seeing her resolute attitude, Chu Fang instead asked her to treat him to a cup of tea.

Subsequently, the group went to a tea house, and the waiter brought tea.

The mature woman hugged the little girl in the lolita dress, saying, "Xue'er, you can't run away from home like this again, you know? Mommy's heart almost jumped out."

As she spoke, she patted her chest, looking frightened.

The little girl Xue'er clung to her mother's dress, saying, "Mommy's heart didn't jump out, Mommy, you're lying to me."

The mature woman's face flushed red, stopping her daughter, "You can't run away from home."

"If you force me to study, I'll run away from home again," Xue'er retorted unyieldingly, tilting her head.

"If you run away from home, I'll spank you."

"If you spank me, I'll cry, and Grandpa and Grandma will spank you."

"If Grandpa and Grandma spank me, I'll spank you even harder."

"If you spank me even harder, I'll cry even harder."

"..."

Listening to the bickering between the mother and daughter, Chu Fang laughed.

You truly are mother and daughter, it's not easy to be together.

Seeing Chu Fang's smile, the mature woman also realized her childishness and said softly, "I'm sorry, I made you laugh."

"No," Chu Fang replied, "Your relationship with Xue'er is very friendly."

The mature woman wiped the sweat from Xue'er's forehead, saying, "But I'm not a good mother, I can't cook, I can't educate her well, and I can't give her more happiness. I only bring her a lot of trouble, force her to study, and prevent her from watching cartoons..."

Xue'er said loudly, "Mommy, you can't do anything, but you're the best mommy in my heart."

Hearing this, the mature woman's heart almost broke, "Really?"

"Yes," Xue'er nodded emphatically, "You're the best mommy in the world, I'll always love you. Even if you get old and ugly, I'll always be the one who loves you the most."

The mature woman was extremely touched, and tears welled up in her eyes.

"Just these two sentences can move you so much? Are you a bit too emotionally sensitive?" Seeing this, Chu Fang was speechless.

However, he felt a touch in his heart.

Chu Fang looked at the mother and daughter, lost in thought, and was soon awakened by Xue'er, who asked, "Handsome brother, what are you thinking about?"

"Nothing," Chu Fang's eyes flashed, shaking his head with a smile, "That's it for today, I have something to do, I'll take my leave."

"Ah?" The mature woman was very surprised, stopping him, "This young man, you saved Xue'er, I haven't thanked you yet."

"You've already treated me to tea."

"But it's not enough," the mature woman thought for a moment, "Today is a weekday, young man, do you not have a job? I can introduce you to a job."

"I have a job."

"Oh, this... I'll give you a car for transportation, what do you think?"

Chu Fang took out his car key and swung it, and the mature woman recognized the logo on it, "Oh, you have a Bentley."

"Then I'll give you money."

"I don't lack money."

"Oh..."

Seeing the mature woman's depressed expression, Chu Fang laughed.

Clearly, this mother and daughter came from a wealthy family, with good upbringing and quality, the kind who must repay any help they receive.

The mature woman tried every means to give Chu Fang help, but the latter lacked nothing, and she suddenly didn't know what to do.

Chu Fang went around her, "I've received enough reward from you, there's no need to thank me anymore."

Then Chu Fang left the tea house, and as he walked out, he saw several bodyguards standing at the door. He punched one of the bodyguards in the chest and asked, "Does it hurt?"

"No, it doesn't hurt," the bodyguard shook his head.

"So boring," Chu Fang pouted.

His proud physical fitness seemed insignificant in front of these professionals, which was too uncomfortable.

Chu Fang muttered softly, "I need to learn more grappling techniques from Zhong Rou, so that I can subdue opponents in two or three moves in the future, how impressive would that be."

He hailed a taxi and then left.

The bodyguards looked at each other and then smiled.

The mature woman upstairs watched the car disappear from sight, "Eh? How did he say I've already given him a reward? I clearly didn't give him anything."

Xue'er clung to her mother's clothes, slowly retracting her gaze, and asked, "Mommy, that handsome brother is very handsome, right? I want to marry a handsome brother in the future."

"Okay, whatever you want," the mature woman tapped her daughter's forehead.
