“Dear, the money is here. Hurry up and count it, cough cough……” 

Chu Qiao’s excited voice rang out, making Debtor Mao’s temples throb. 

Just hearing this damned woman’s voice gave him a reflexive headache. 

He had been in this business for half his life and had never failed, but today he had been completely outdone by this damned woman.  

How hateful ah! 

There were no 100-yuan banknotes yet, just 10-yuan notes. The 380,000 yuan had piled up into a mountain, piled high and shining brightly. 

Gu Ye blinked his eyes and involuntarily swallowed his saliva, his expression a bit dazed.

It was the first time he had seen so much money. His waigong* was right, apart from beautiful women and jewelry, there was nothing more beautiful in this world than money. 

*Waigong (外公) : Maternal grandfather, mother’s father. 

However, he had to correct himself. Other than his wife Qiao Qiao, the second most beautiful thing in the world was money.

Debtor Mao gave a sinister smile, pointed at the pile of money, and said, “Comrade Gu, please count it up. The full 380,000 is all here.”

Gu Ye counted it and found a total of 38 bundles of money, with each worth 10,000. 

He chuckled and said, “That’s right, Mr. Mao. Here is the IOU, we’re even now.” 

He handed the yellowed IOU over to Debtor Mao, who gritted his teeth as he took it. With a few quick rips, he tore it into pieces and tossed them into the trash can.

Gu Ye put the money into a bag, which was heavy and bulging. He casually threw it over his shoulder and smiled at Chu Qiao, “Let’s go home!”  

“Mmm!” 

Chu Qiao nodded vigorously, her pale face now full of smiles. 

Only then did everyone realize that this woman, who seemed on the verge of death, was actually quite beautiful, it was just her complexion was a little too bad.

“Thank you all for your great help. I bow to you all!”

Gu Ye clasped his hands in gratitude and gave a deep bow.

“No need to be so polite! Go home and live well. Treat your wife well!” 

“Don’t let your wife down!” 

Everyone chimed in with their well-wishes. Gu Ye nodded to each of them, very polite in his responses.

He put the bag of money in the front basket of his bike, helped Chu Qiao onto the back seat, and then rode away. The rest of the crowd also dispersed.

Only Debtor Mao was left, standing alone in front of the bank, looking desolate. 

After a long while, he hunched his back and slowly walked home. 

Though there were people along the alley on both sides, no one paid attention to him, not even saying hello.

Half an hour later, Gu Ye and Chu Qiao returned to the machine tool factory.

“I’m heading home. You should go to the finance department to settle the account.” Chu Qiao said as she got off the bike at a fork in the road.

Gu Ye wanted to take her back to the residential building, but Chu Qiao refused. 

Such a large sum of money should be handed over to the finance department immediately, to avoid any unnecessary complications.

“Qiao Qiao, you are really amazing!” 

Gu Ye gave her a thumbs-up, and didn’t hesitate to praise her. 

She had managed to recover the money in just one day, whereas he had been trying for over ten days without success. His wife was much more capable than him.

But Gu Ye didn’t feel bad about it. He understood clearly that not all men were smarter or more capable than women. 

Many women were extremely talented, even excelling in fields that were traditionally dominated by men.

He recalled being sent for special training at the Black Panther Squad, where every trainee was handpicked from thousands, all top-notch in solo combat. 

Gu Ye had thought very highly of himself back then, looking down on everyone. 

On the first day of training, a pretty female instructor was assigned to them. 

Gu Ye was quite dissatisfied, acting a bit cocky, and even challenged her to a fight.

And what was the result? He was brutally beaten by the female instructor to the point that even his father wouldn’t have recognized him. 

Only later did he learn that this female instructor held the record for the highest number of hand-to-hand combat kills, a record that still hadn’t been broken.

Since then, Gu Ye learned a valuable lesson, to never underestimate anyone. 

No matter how insignificant they might seem. At some point, they might deliver a fatal blow when you least expect it.
