No.1 Supreme Warrior by Moneto

Chapter 201
“Oh my god, someone really jumped down?!”

“Is he not afraid of death? That’s two Siberian tigers in front of him!”

“How is he unhurt after jumping down from this height? Could that kid be a martial artist!?”

“10 million dollars. Someone’s willing to risk his life for 10 million dollars! However, that’s two adult Siberian tigers. That kid is just asking for death!”

Quite a number of tourists broke out in discussions.

Selena, too, ran to the bridge while carrying Kylie. Seeing jackie jumping down, Kylie seemed to have sensed that it was dangerous. She shouted anxiously, “Mommy, it’s Daddy. Daddy jumped down!”

Selena was just as anxious. Those were tigers, not human, and there were two of them. Judging from the looks of it, the tigers were hungry. Their eyes were filled with killing intent.

“Don’t worry, Kylie. Daddy will be fine. Daddy is a hero. He’s there to save people!” Although Selena was deeply worried, she still tried to comfort Kylie who was in her arms.

“Thank you, thank you. If you save my son, I’ll pay you 10 million dollars. I really have the money. No, I’ll pay you 50 million dollars!” That middle-aged woman kept crying on the bridge. Now that somebody went down, her emotions were slightly more stable.

After jackie jumped down, both the tigers stopped in their tracks and glowered a jackie.

jackie did not try to immediately reach for the child. Instead, he looked at the little boy and yelled at him. “Shut up. Why are you crying? You’re not a man if you cry!”

The little boy was crying out of fear. Now that jackie shouted at him, he no longer dared to cry, but instead shut his mouth and sobbed quietly.

“Do you understand your mistake? It’s written there to not climb or play. Didn’t you see it?” jackie pointed at the signboard on the stone bridge, then stated, “If you don’t admit your mistake, I won’t save you!”

“Uncle, I know my mistake!” The boy whimpered. The little boy looked pitiful. After saying that, he once again lost control and cried aloud.

“F*ck me, this man is trying to teach the kid a lesson at a time like this?!”

“Although that teaching method is the right approach, they’re both about to die. What’s the point of teaching now?”

A number of tourists were at a loss on how to react.

The two tigers raised their heads slowly and roared at jackie. That sound carried along the domineering presence of a ruler.

“You beast, if you know what’s good for you, then get out of my way. In my eyes, you’re nothing but little kittens. You won’t be able to kill the person I want to save!” jackie’s eyes turned serious. A terrible killing intent flashed across his eyes.

“Little brother, look over there. There are some vines there. Quickly carry my son and run over there. You can climb up that vine onto the stone wall. That will get you up here!” The woman on the stone bridge directed after looking left and right.

However, jackie ignored her solution and coldly looked over the two tigers.

The tigers exchanged glances, then leaped at jackie simultaneously.

“Ah!” The people on the stone bridge closed their eyes out of fright. It was too scary.

“He’s doomed. Two Siberian tigers attack together as if a planned attack. That kid is dead for sure!”

“Humans die for money, birds die for food. Sigh, it’s because of his greed for that 10 million dollars! Oh no, it’s 50 million dollars. However, what’s the use of 50 million dollars if he’s dead!?”

Chapter 202
The crowd was extremely anxious. Quite a number of them exclaimed in terror. They all thought jackie would surely die. If it was one tiger lunging at him, jackie might be able to struggle for a moment. Although it was useless to struggle, it was still better to face them one on one.

However, with two tigers coming from both sides, anyone else would only be met with death.

Unexpectedly, the next instant stunned everyone. All of them almost have their eyes popped out of their sockets from the surprise.

Both the Siberian tigers that lunged at him were held down to the ground with his hands on their head.

The tigers bellowed deeply and struggled with all their might. However, it was to no avail. jackie’s strength pressing down on their head had them fully pinned down, unable to escape.

The Tigers continued to struggle. Their hind legs were kicking so much to the point of digging two pits behind them, yet it was of no help.

At that time, two zoo employees finally arrived at the scene. When they opened the metal gates, the sight they saw had them shocked to the core.

“Oh my god, am I seeing things?”

“Yeah. Is this man that strong??”

The two employees immediately rushed over and carried the child.

Although the two tigers were running low on strength, they still continued to roar in anger.

“What now? The tigers are angry. At this rate, even if he releases the tiger, we can’t calm them down and stop them from hurting people!” One of the guys asked nervously.

“You guys carry the child and go out first. Lock the door properly!” jackie turned around and instructed the two employees.

“Wait here brother. Just hold out a little longer. I’ll go get the tranquilizer gun!” The other employee immediately suggested.

“That’s right. If the tigers were not angered, they would still obey. Normally we’re the ones to feed them, so…”

“However, in this situation, if you let go, they will surely attack…” The other employee interjected.

“You both really talk a lot. If not because these Siberian tigers are protected animals, I would’ve killed them with a punch each! Get the child out of here and lock the door!” jackie stated sternly.

“Brother, w-w-what about you?” One of them was deeply touched. What a great man that was willing to sacrifice himself to save a child.

Moreover, in order to ease their worries, he was lying about his ability to kill the tigers in one punch. Such a nice person was really rare to come by.

“Go!” jackie yelled.

The two employees finally carried the child out and brought him to his mother on the stone bridge.

“Jake!” The woman hugged her son and burst into tears once more. This time, it was because of joy.

She quickly remembered something, then looked at the man holding the tigers by the head down there, feeling extremely touched. “Little brother, what about you? You must stay alive! I still need to repay your kindness!”

“Sigh, it’s already lucky enough that he managed to hold the tigers down by their head. Unfortunately, good people don’t live long!” said a guy from the crowd.

“The two employees are off to get the tranquilizer gun. Little brother, hold out a little more!”

On the bridge, others were cheering jackie on.

Chapter 203
Both the tigers kept up with their struggles. Time and time again they tried to raise their heads. Unfortunately, they were still held firmly on the ground by jackie.

Suddenly, jackie released both the Siberian tigers and backed off swiftly.

The tigers finally got up and glared at jackie intently.

After a moment, both of them once again rushed at jackie.

This time, jackie gave each a kick and sent both tigers flying a few meters back.

“Oh my god!”

The tourists on the bridge were worried about jackie and thought he was in trouble. Never did they expect jackie to resolve the danger once again.

After sending the two tigers flying, jackie turned around and dashed, arriving at the edge of the cliff. He then dashed upward. His legs took a few steps, flashing about, and got up in just a few simple moves. With another leap, he was already up on the stone bridge, standing in front of everyone.

The two tigers pounced forward and only caught air, only realizing jackie standing on the stone bridge after raising their heads.

Both the adult Siberian tigers roared at jackie, who was on the stone bridge, for some time before they finally lowered their heads and turned away.

jackie’s entire stunt added up to a total of at most two seconds. The speed was just too fast. To many of them, jackie was back with just a blur. After a momentary silence, it was followed by thunderous applause.

“Thank you, thank you, you’re my hero!” The middle-aged woman immediately grabbed jackie’s hand and said excitedly. “Pass me your bank card. It’s a promise. You saved my son so I’ll pay you 50 million dollars as a sign of gratitude!”

“Oh my god, 50 million dollars! Just who is this woman? She’s rich enough to actually pay him a reward of 50 million dollars?”

“Big risk, big rewards. This man struck the jackpot this time!”

Quite a number of tourists were looking at jackie with admiration. jackie’s show of strength earlier had similarly shocked them.

“Pretty lady, your husband is too amazing. How is he that strong? Moreover, it’s about three meters tall and he was able to get up here in one breath!”

Another auntie could not help but approach Selena. “Your husband is too amazing. Having married such a strong husband, you must be very happy!”

Selena squeezed out a smile, then said, “He’s been in the army for five years and just only came back from the battlefield!”

“No wonder he’s amazing. Those that battled the enemies on the battlefield and survived five years are definitely not ordinary folks!”

Upon hearing that, some of the men looked at jackie more respectfully. Such a person was worthy of their respect.

However, none of them expected what came next. jackie told the woman bluntly, “Don’t bother with the 50 million dollars. If it’s for the money, I wouldn’t have saved your son!” Having said that, he went forward and crouched down. He then gently touched the child’s ankle.

Upon hearing those words, the crowd was dumbfounded. 50 million dollars worth of reward. That amount, to any of them, was a huge incentive, yet jackie rejected it squarely. Perhaps that was what it meant to be a hero that served the country.

Hearing those words, Selena too had a smile on her face. She had not planned to take the money. After all, the reason jackie saved people was not for the money.

“Ah!” The child could not hold back from crying out. His face turned pale.

“I’ve already called the ambulance. It’ll be here very soon. I wonder what’s wrong with the leg. It’s all swollen. Who knows if it might be very serious!” The woman looked and explained with a worried expression.

“Let me handle it. This ankle is badly dislocated. If we don’t fix it, the blood vessels would be blocked and make things worse!”

“By then, if left for a long time, the bad circulation might lead to the possibility of amputation!” jackie looked at the boy’s ankle, then asked him, “Jake, right? This time, it might hurt a little but it’s unavoidable. You can only endure it!”

“Wait, are you a doctor? Can you do it? Aren’t you a soldier?” That middle-aged woman was extremely worried. “Kiddo, you saved my son’s life so I’ll definitely pay you that 50 million dollars. However, please don’t act rashly on my son’s injuries!”

Crack!

However, just as she finished her sentence, jackie quickly grabbed Jake’s leg and gave it a good tug, creating that sickening sound.

“Ah!” Little Jake turned around and screamed, then passed out.

Chapter 204
jackie stood up and let out a deep breath. He then reached for a cigarette and slowly lit it, taking a puff. However, his brows soon curved into a frown, feeling the gaze from the crowd turning abnormal.

“I-i-isn’t he a soldier that kills enemies? Isn’t he a fighter? Does he know anything about medicine?” Finally, one of the aunties asked slowly.

“How can he know anything about medicine? Killing and saving lives are two completely different things, okay? Furthermore, that child passed out. He’s not dead, is he?” An old man asked in a worried tone.

Hearing those words, Little Jake’s mother almost passed out from shock. She immediately glared at jackie. “What’s wrong with you? My son was just fine earlier. Why is he not moving now? Did you just kill him? Could it be that you knew my family is rich and think that 50 million dollars is too little?”

“No way?!”

A number of people from the crowd took a deep breath. If jackie really had such a thought, that would be too evil. 50 million dollars and he still finds it insufficient?

“Impossible. My husband is not such a person!” Selena immediately stepped forward, then confronted that woman. “If he wanted to kill your child, he wouldn’t have jumped down there in the first place. Saving him, then just to kill him? Isn’t that just redundant?”

Unexpectedly, that woman immediately grabbed jackie by the collar and shouted, “I don’t care. My son was doing just fine earlier. He was crying and could talk to others. Now he’s just lying on the ground, not even moving. I don’t care, I want my son to wake up right now!”

Selena was speechless. She then stood up for jackie. “Hey woman, why are you so unreasonable? My husband just risked his life to save your son. How can you think of him this way?”

“who knows if he jumped down for that 10 million dollars?!” The woman chuckled, then blabbered incoherently, “He must’ve seen me suddenly raising the amount to 50 million dollars and realized that I’m from a rich family, the super affluent. Now that he’s found me out, he feels that 50 million dollars was too little and wants more!”

“You crazy woman!” jackie’s expression darkened. “If I want more money, can’t I just ask you earlier? Why would I do something so redundant?”

That woman instantly lost all her bluster, feeling that jackie’s words made sense too. However, she did not plan to let go of jackie’s collar. She asked, “Then you tell me, do you have a medical license? Are you a doctor from a hospital?”

jackie was speechless. He smiled bitterly, “Although I have no medical license, nor am I a doctor, I have great medical knowledge. I know how to save people! Isn’t it sufficient to save someone?”

“look here everyone. He doesn’t even have a medical license. How can he prove that he can save people? He’s not even a doctor yet he dares to simply touch my son. If my son is dead, I’ll never let him go!” The woman laughed out loud, then stated in a loud voice, “Everyone here should be my witness. This kid is greedy beyond measure. I’m sure it’s because he thinks I’m underpaying him!”

jackie looked at her impatiently, then moved his cigarette to her arm.

Upon seeing that, she was alarmed and immediately let go of jackie’s collar then took a few steps back. “Kid, what do you want? You son of a b*tch, are you trying to burn me?”

jackie adjusted his own collar, then sneered, “Burn you? if you knew whose collar you were holding on earlier, you’ll be deeply regretful! I saved a life out of kindness, yet you look down on me like this?” Finishing his statement, jackie took another puff of the cigarette, then continued, “Your son was merely unconscious because it was too painful to bear. His leg is all better now. It’s still a little swollen at the moment. When the time comes, just apply some anti-inflammatory medicine and painkillers will do. You can even skip the trip to the hospital and get them from the pharmacy!”

“W-w-why should I believe your words?” The woman maintained her fierce stance, “I’ll wait for the people from the hospital to come and make an examination! Moreover, my son is still unconscious. How do I know what’s happened?”

“If you want to wait, then wait here yourself. Don’t waste my precious time. I’m enjoying the day with my daughter and wife. My time is very precious!”

Chapter 205
Having said his peace, jackie was about to leave with Selena.

“You’re not allowed to leave!” However, that woman blocked their path. “I think you’re just feeling guilty. Otherwise, why are you trying to leave?”

“That’s right. That boy was fine just earlier and would only need to wait for the ambulance, yet this guy tried to provide treatment? In my opinion, he’s just a quack that’s trying to show off but end up causing an accident!”

Some of them started to criticize jackie, stating, “The path to evil is paved with good intentions!”

Obviously, nobody would believe a soldier to do a doctor’s work.

The two zoo employees came running. When they saw the situation, they immediately exclaimed, “Wonderful, brother, you climbed up all on your own? That’s amazing!”

Having said that, he looked over to the little boy on the floor. “Wasn’t he just fine earlier?”

Hearing that, the woman immediately started complaining in tears, “That’s right. Everything was fine earlier. He was awake, but this guy came and offered to help. In the end, I don’t even know if my son is dead or alive now. I don’t care, if my son is dead, or his condition worsens, he’ll have to compensate accordingly!”

The employee’s expression darkened as he looked at jackie. “Little brother, we’ve already called the ambulance and it’s on the way. Why must you try to provide treatment? We have no idea about this child’s injuries. If you’re not trained in that field, it’s better not to do anything and let the doctors decide. Why didn’t you wait?”

“If I waited, he might require amputation!” jackie explained.

Right then, an ambulance drove to the edge of the bridge and the medical personnel ran over.

“Thank goodness the doctor is here. Doctor, how’s my son? This area was swollen earlier, but then this soldier here gave it a tug like this and my son went unconscious…” Noticing the doctor’s arrival, the woman went into tears and explained as though grasping at straws.

“Don’t rush. Let me have a look!” The doctor examined and said, “There’s nothing wrong. He’s just passed out and will wake up in a bit. Moreover, from what I can see, it must have been badly dislocated previously. It’s already being set back in place. This kid’s technique is spot on.”

“Y-y-you’re sure?” The woman swallowed hard as she stared at the doctor with wide-opened eyes.

The doctor said grunted impatiently, “Nonsense. I’m an orthopedic specialist. How can I not diagnose the situation? Go buy some anti-inflammatory medicine and apply it for a few days. It’ll be fine. The situation earlier should be much worse. If it wasn’t treated in time, that would be dangerous.”

“so the experts understand while the layman laughs!” jackie chuckled, then put out his cigarette and threw it in the trash bin.

“S-s-sorry. I’ve wrongfully accused you!” The woman lowered her head and said in an embarrassed tone, “How much money you want? I can pay you!”

“This apology is sufficient. No need for payment! Next time, don’t jump to the wrong conclusion and blame the good guy!”

Chapter 206
“I…” The middle-aged woman was furious beyond comprehension, yet she did not know what to say.

The people who had been criticizing jackie earlier now all turned on her, saying that she had gone too far, suspecting her own benefactor like that.

“Mom…” At this moment, the boy who had fainted regained consciousness. The crowd began to clap their hands again.

“50 million? You’re amazing, dear!” They walked off for a while before Selena finally smiled. “You’re really not tempted by that much money? If you took the 50 million, you could have easily solved the issue of Grandfather’s coming birthday!”

jackie gave a wry smile as he looked at his wife. “My dear, would you take the 50 million if it was from the person you had saved before?” he asked.

“Of course not. I don’t save others to get money!” He quirked a brow when he heard that. “Heh. My dear, it seems like you desperately want me to fork out 40 million dollars to get your parents’ approval. I think this proves that you truly love me, and you want to be with me.”

Selena’s face immediately reddened. “No way!” she protested hastily. “I just think that it’s a shame that you let 50 million dollars slip past your fingers just like that.”

The three roamed around the zoo for a while before exiting the place and was about to call a cab to go home.

However, they never expected a BMW to quickly pull up near them.

The driver rolled down the window. The man grinned towards Selena. “Oh, and I thought that I saw wrong. Never imagined to really run into the belle of our class!”

“Hugh Launer!” Surprise filled Selena when she recognized the man. Then she smiled toward her husband. “ jackie, this is an old coursemate from my university,” she explained. “He was like one of my bros, and we were pretty close before. Never thought I’d run into him here.”

“ jackie?” The man studied jackie, then looked at Kylie, who was being carried in his arms. His face suddenly broke into a smile. “I was wondering why this name sounded so familiar. Don’t tell me that you’re that delivery boy from last time,” he said. “Didn’t you enlist in the military? It seems like you’ve retired already.”

“That’s right. I’ve been back for quite some time now.” jackie offered the other man a smile. “I happened to have some time off today, so I came out to accompany my wife and my little girl.”

“Are you guys about to call a cab home?”

A woman sitting beside Hugh peered toward the young family. “Oh, so this is the class belle that Hugh mentions about frequently!” she said, smiling. “You married pretty early, didn’t you? Your daughter is so big already!”

“What class belle? Those boys had nothing better to do than to go around labeling everyone, that’s all!” Selena chuckled, slightly awkward.

She was not stupid. She detected the venom laced beneath the woman’s words.

“No way. Hugh told me that most of your campus’s beauties were in your class! So basically, it is not even an understatement if a class belle from your class is recognized as a campus belle!”

Chapter 207
The woman wore a black satin dress, which contrasted against her snow-white skin, giving her an ethereal appearance. Additionally, soft waves rippled down her hair, exuding a youthful countenance. Of course, the woman had a nice figure as well. She lacked some of Selena’s natural elegance, but she was equal in almost all other physical aspects.

“You’re too humble now. You’re such a great beauty yourself!” Selena chuckled and spoke politely.

“Are you guys calling a cab from here? It’ll be difficult, considering that it’s peak period now. There’ll be plenty of people calling for cabs too!” The woman scanned jackie and Selena. “Oh, what a drag it is to not have a car,” she commented. “It seems like your husband can’t support you very well!”

Hugh flashed an awkward smile at the woman’s words. “Right. Selena, it so happens that there’s a class reunion tonight. We’ve already invited quite a few of our old cronies over. Why don’t you come too? You can bring your family along!”

“Oh, yes! Come on over. It must have been years since you guys last met!” The woman nodded her head too. “You have to show up for our dear Hugh.”

“Well…” Selena drew her brows together, hesitant. She had been good friends with Hugh before, but she had not seen him in a few years. She was afraid that the old cronies he had been referring to would all regard her with judgmental eyes, like Rachel Linsay.

“What are you waiting for? Trevor Turner’s back in the country too. He says that he’s going for a job interview tomorrow in a huge corporation. Apparently, he knows a manager who works there. The interview is practically in the bag for him! Besides, we haven’t had a gathering in years. You, as our resident class belle, will definitely have to come!” Hugh quickly added on, “If you don’t come, I’m not your bro anymore!”

“All right, all right. I’ll come. Where is it? I’ll send my daughter back home first, and I’ll come tonight with my husband.” Selena’s smile was empty. She had no choice but to accept the invite at his persistence. Besides, she had not seen Trevor in a long time either. She had been pretty close with him too.

“The Lotus Bar and Lounge at eight. We’ll be waiting at the entrance for you. Be sure to turn up!” Hugh smiled and waved his hand. “Then it’s settled. I’ll be going off first. I have to change my clothes!”

After he finished speaking, he immediately drove off.

“Seriously? Why do you have to invite her to the gathering? They can’t even afford a car, and you invited them to such a classy place. We’ll be embarrassing ourselves too then.” Hugh’s girlfriend could not help but roll her eyes at him. “The people at this gathering are either driving a Benz or a BMW,” she said unhappily. “Your friend and her husband are in a completely different class from us. They are like the country bumpkins as if it was their first time stepping out into the world. They will become a laughingstock”

“What are you talking about? We graduated from the same university! Besides, we were close before, and it’s not easy to get everyone together. It won’t be a problem if she’s there!

“Other than that, I heard that she’s been running into walls over the past few years. It’s because she married a good-for-nothing and insisted on having the kid, so the Taylors practically forsook her. She can’t even find a job now!”

Hugh flashed a wry smile. “The Taylors are aristocrats too. Who knew that Selena would have fallen to where she is today!”

“Hmph. She’s such a pitiable creature, isn’t she? Perhaps you like her? She has a husband though, so don’t think about it!” The woman beside him spoke, envy tingling her tone.

Chapter 208
jackie and Selena quickly called a cab and left, with little Kylie in tow. However, jackie looked as though a thought occurred to him just as they drove through a street lined with 4S Audi retail outlets. “Sir, let us down here,” he told the driver.

“Here?” Selena was stunned, her gaze flickered with suspicion.

It was only after they got down from the cab did jackie explain everything.

“Honey, I think we should get a car. It seems as though the former classmates who’ll be showing up at the gathering are the classy sort. That woman just now was practically showing off, too. They might gossip terribly about you if you don’t drive a car there!” he insisted. “I’m fine with that, but I can’t let you suffer!”

“But do you still have money? Why don’t we wait until my pay comes?” Selena frowned. “I’m not afraid of suffering. If they look down on me, so be it. Everything’s fine as long as I’m happy. Let me live my own life; it’s not like I’d bother about theirs.”

“I still have money! We haven’t finished the bonus I was awarded for being in the military for five years.” jackie scratched his head and looked at Kylie before he turned to look at Selena. “Besides, it’s going to be hard taking Kylie to school during rainy days if we don’t have a car,” he added. “So this won’t do. And I don’t think one car is enough. We need at least one for ourselves, and another for Jenny to take Kylie to school!”

“You still have money? You spent 3.2 million already though, yet you still have money?” Selena was slightly taken aback. “How much did they give you, exactly? 5 million? 10 million? If you did get 10 million, you weren’t some regular grunt in the forces, were you? You must’ve at least been in special ops!”

jackie did not know whether to laugh or cry when he heard this. “Something like that,” he concluded. “Just don’t look down on your husband. Let’s go. We still have enough to buy a car!”

“All right then. Let’s get two!” Selena was in a good mood, and the smile on her face was evidence of that. “My family will be in for a shock when we drive the cars back home!”

“Heh. Let’s go!”

The family of three quickly walked towards a BMW retail outlet.

“Sir, Madam, are you here to see the cars? I’m sorry, but we’re about to close up shop!”

A saleswoman was mopping the floor inside, and she immediately stopped when she saw the three of them. “Come again tomorrow if you really want to take a look!”

“What are they looking for, anyway? It’s so late already, and I need to go for a date. Besides, the cars here aren’t cheap. They don’t seem like the sort who can afford them!” Another saleswoman walked over and said disdainfully, a frosty smile on her face.

“Joyce, be more polite. You can’t speak like that even if they can’t afford the cars.” The saleswoman who was mopping the floor rolled her eyes at Joyce.

“I’m polite enough as it is. See, this model is one of the cheaper ones, and it’s already 300 thousand dollars!”

“This one here is seven hundred. Do you think they can buy them?” The saleswoman named Joyce folded her arms across her chest as she sneered. She added arrogantly, “It’s so late, and everybody can’t wait to go back home. Why should we waste our time on them? Besides, it’s too troublesome to do all the loan applications and all that!”

The saleswoman who was mopping the floor nodded her head. “That’s true. It’s always like that. No one buys the car even after we spend nearly half the day introducing the models to them. What a waste of time!”

“ jackie, dear, forget about it. They’ve started mopping the floor already. It won’t be too nice if we leave our footprints all over the place either,” Selena spoke as she frowned.

Chapter 209
“True. Let’s go over to the Porsche store on the opposite side.” jackie nodded and brought Selena outside.

“Porsche?” The two saleswomen finally responded after the family of three walked out. They stared at each other, wondering if they misheard what jackie said.

The two thought the family would go to a store that sold cheaper cars when they heard the price of the BMWs. They never thought that they would actually go over to the Porsche store instead.

“Joyce, do you think we’ve lost a potential customer? What if he does have money?” The saleswoman mopping the floor frowned. Regret tinged her expression.

“No way!” Joyce replied instantly. “The clothes the woman was wearing don’t seem too bad, but the man’s clothes are basically market goods,” she argued. “How rich do you think a man like that can be? He probably just said something to provoke us to save his own face!”

After she finished speaking, she headed straight toward the entrance. “If you don’t believe me, let’s watch them from here. They definitely won’t go in!”

The saleswoman who was mopping the floor joined Joyce at the entrance. Her brows furrowed. “No way… Joyce, they went in. Don’t tell me they genuinely want to buy a Porsche.”

“No, no. It must be an act,” Joyce answered immediately. “They’re afraid that we’re watching, so they’re pretending to go in. They’ll come out in a while. I’ve seen plenty of that sort before!”

…

“Are we seriously going in?” Selena frowned at the Porsche store’s entrance. “Do you know how to pick a car? Porsches are very expensive, and you say you want to buy two. I’m scared that we can’t even afford one! How much money do you have left, exactly?”

After he heard this, jackie replied carelessly, “Honey, don’t worry about it. Don’t mention two cars; buying this entire store won’t be a problem!”

Anxiety washed over Selena. This man still wanted to joke around at this time. ‘Don’t tell me jackie actually received 10 million dollars from the military. In that case, he must’ve been a commander in his troop, or maybe a high-ranking officer!’

Selena drew her brows together as she considered the possibilities. Judging from jackie’s confident demeanor, he probably would be able to take out at least a few hundred thousand dollars even if he were exaggerating his wealth. Otherwise, they would just be embarrassing themselves walking in like this.

Yesterday, she happened to learn the positions of a commander and a captain; the former was in charge of leading a good hundred men whereas the latter would lead roughly a thousand or at least a few hundred men. Retired colonels could obtain 10 million, though it could even exceed that amount. Of course, some merely received 4 or 5 million.

‘He probably had 10 million. He had just spent three million and two hundred thousand earlier. If he buys two cars by the end of this, his spending could be about 5 million. He even promised to compensate my mother with the three million and eight hundred thousand that can’t be found anymore. He wouldn’t be that confident if he didn’t have at least 10 million!’ Selena slowly made the deductions in her head.

Noticing his wife’s absent-minded gaze, he spoke, “What are you thinking about, dear? Look around and see if you like anything. We’ll get whichever you like!”

Selena snapped back into reality. “I don’t know the price of the cars here, and you tell me to get whatever I like? Let’s just get whatever that’s cheaper! It’s a waste of money if we buy the expensive ones.”

After she said that, she stepped into the reception area and saw a saleswoman mopping the floor. Her expression immediately darkened. “Oh, come on. They’re about to close up, too! I don’t think we can get a car today…” she grumbled. “Let’s come back tomorrow.”

Chapter 210
The saleswoman was scrubbing the floor with vigor. Sweat trickled down her forehead due to the sweltering weather. She lifted her head and spotted a couple at the entrance. The man even had an adorable little girl in his arms. She immediately placed the mop aside and walked over, a smile plastered on her face as she did so.

“Are you two here to have a look at our cars? Please, please, come in. Do you want a drink? We have lemonade, coffee, plain water… Anything you like.” The saleswoman peppered them with questions, and the smile she wore never fell for a moment.

Selena was stunned for a moment before she looked at the recently mopped floor. “Aren’t you worried we might dirty the floor you just finished cleaning?”

“Don’t worry about it! You’re our customers, and you’re the king here. Step over the floor as much as you like!” After the saleswoman said that, she looked at Kylie. “What an adorable young lady,” she said, smiling. “She’s so pretty. It’d be great if I had a daughter as pretty as her in the future!”

“That Dana… Why is she so welcoming toward anyone she sees? Does it do her any good?”

“Yeah. We sell Porsches here. Can that couple afford them? We’re about to close shop and here they are, wasting our time. Everybody worked so hard to mop the floor, and they just came in here dirtying the place. We’ll have to mop all over again!”

“I don’t care…she’s in charge of mopping, anyway. I’m just going to go home when it’s time to go.”

The salespeople who stood by the side observed Dana, quietly muttering among themselves. It seemed like they were displeased with their colleague’s actions.

One of the salespersons flashed a mirthless smile. “Dana is still at the bottom of this month’s sales performance,” he commented. “Hmph. She’ll probably receive a good scolding from the manager if she still can’t make sales, so she has no choice but to be friendly. Still, she’s such an idiot. She really doesn’t know how to pick her customers. Doesn’t look like she’ll make a sale this time either!”

Meanwhile, jackie was encouraging Selena to look at the cars. “Go and look around, dear. Just choose anything you like. If you want it, we’ll buy it!” jackie told Selena, smiling.

She frowned. “Don’t worry about the drinks,” she said to Dana. “What are the cheaper models around here?”

“This way, Miss. Take a look at this one. It’s a lower-end model that only costs 5 to 6 hundred thousand!” Dana smiled as she walked toward a model, introducing it to Selena.

“Honey, you have to buy a car you like. How can you use the price as a criterion?” jackie observed the situation and simply asked his daughter, “Kylie, why don’t you choose? Let’s just get whatever car that you like.”

Kylie scanned her surroundings. Then, she pointed at the 911 model, its design sleek and luxurious. “This red one looks good to me, Dad!”

“The red one?” jackie grinned when he heard that. “Then let’s get it!”

“Sure, it looks good. But how much does it cost?” Selena’s brows furrowed. She was worried that jackie would not have enough cash in his credit card, and that would be an extremely awkward moment for them all.

“You have a good eye. This is the 911, but this model is more expensive with better specs. Of course, this model isn’t all too pricey. It’s only about 2.7 million!”

A saleswoman of the shop felt her patience leaving her, and she strode over on purpose. “I knew you can’t afford it!” she mocked.

“2.7 million?” Selena took in a sharp intake of breath when she heard the price. She tugged on jackie’s sleeve. “Never mind, dear. It’s too expensive. Let’s just get the car she introduced to me earlier!”

The saleswoman’s lips twitched by the edges. Judging from Selena’s tone, it was as though they could still afford the previous car Dana introduced to them worth 5 to 6 hundred thousand.

Furthermore, it seemed that the couple was truly intent on buying a car. Could it be that Dana had stumbled upon an opportunity?

“No can do. Since you think it’s nice, and our daughter likes it, let’s get that one!” jackie smiled and fished out his credit card. “Do you have stocks of that red model?” he asked Dana. “I want two of them, and the exact same model!”

Chapter 211
“Y—Yes! Yes we do!” Dana was so elated that her voice quavered as she spoke. This particular model was extremely expensive; it was good enough if they could see one of them per month.

Although quite a number of people bought Porsche cars, they still could not regularly sell a model that cost over 2 million. More importantly, jackie requested for two of the same model.

“Did…did I hear wrongly?” The other saleswoman’s jaws slacked. She stared at the credit card in shock. “No, wait,” she said. “What card is this? Why haven’t I seen it before?”

jackie’s lips twisted into a wry smile. “It’s a specially made card. There’s probably less than five of its kind in the entire world. It’d be stranger if you’ve seen it before! I think I’m the only one in Daxia who has it.”

The saleswoman suddenly flashed a humorless grin when she heard that. “You’re lying. Less than five of its kind in the world? We don’t know if you can swipe that card with that much money charged to it. If you’re really the only one in Daxia who has this card, then no one will recognize it, but that also means no one can prove that it’s real either. Isn’t that right? You’re pretty clever, aren’t you? What a seamless lie!”

Selena stifled her chuckle with a hand over her mouth; her husband was exaggerating his wealth to another level. Less than five of that card in the whole world, and he was the only one in Daxia who had one? He really had an inflated opinion of himself. The lie was so bad that even the gods would frown upon him.

“You’re the best, Daddy!” Selena felt embarrassed when Kylie stared at jackie in pure admiration, her eyes practically sparkling.

“All right, let’s get the bill. The two cars will cost 5.4 million dollars in total.” Selena said to jackie, a stiff smile on her face.

“Sir, aren’t… Aren’t you going to bargain with us? We can provide special offers!”

The saleswoman’s expression was stricken with panic. It was the first time she had seen someone spending over 5 million dollars in one shot, and he did not even try to bargain!

“Hmm? No thank you. It’s too troublesome. It’s so late already, and we have an appointment tonight. How about this: just give us a toll card!” jackie inattentively bargained after he thought about it.

“All right. I’ll give you a toll card worth 20 thousand dollars!” Dana was practically jumping with joy. She quickly handled the necessary documents before bringing jackie to the payment counter.

The face of the salespeople who had been looking down on jackie earlier suddenly darkened. A sale of over 5 million, and Dana snatched up this bigshot customer.

“Sir, Miss, the insurance will be effective immediately, but you won’t have a license plate if you drive the cars now. It’ll take a few days before the plates will be issued, but we’ll provide temporary plates.” Dana spoke with a small smile as her heart leaped with delight. Never could she have imagined that this man would be such a wealthy tycoon.

“All right, then we’ll just drive it off first!” jackie nodded his head, and the husband-and-wife pair drove the cars from the shop. They stopped at a nearby gas station to refuel their cars before returning to the dilapidated garden.

“Wow, a Porsche 911!” Ben was resting in the garden. He opened the door to the sight of the two new cars, and he immediately cried out, “These are definitely not the lower-spec models either. Heh. It’s got to be at least 2 to 3 million per car!

“Who’s driving them? Why do I feel like they’re driving inside here? Don’t tell me that jackie offended some tycoon again and they’re here to create trouble for us.” Xena stood up too, gulping.

Soon enough, the cars came straight in, parking within the perimeter of the garden’s fence.

“Mom, we’re back!” Selena was grinning, pure happiness on her expression.

Chapter 212
For the past five years, their family had suffered together. At that period, Selena constantly thought of how wonderful it would be to live a good life or drive a nice car. Unfortunately, she had not much of a choice back then. She could only grit her teeth and move on to survive.

It was only natural that she was overcome with giddiness as she could finally drive a luxury car worth more than 2 million.

“Huh? I—It’s Selena!” Fiona rushed out of the house. She noticed that it was jackie and Selena who got out of the cars, and she abruptly yelled to the house, “Andrew, come here! Look! It’s our daughter. Oh my goodness, what a beautiful car. It must have cost quite a pretty penny.”

“Selena, what…what’s going on?” Ben walked up to her. “It must’ve been expensive, and it looks new. Dear God, don’t tell me that this is yours?” he asked.

“Well…” Selena cast a glance towards her husband, frowning. She did not know how to explain this.

If she told her mother that jackie had plenty of cash on hand to buy these two cars, she would surely think that jackie had refused to take his money to compensate for her stolen 3.8 million dollars. She would not be so happy then!

jackie shared this thought and was just as stunned as his wife.

Fiona quickly stepped forward when Selena did not answer immediately. “I see… jackie, you little punk. Did you get my 3.8 million back?” she huffed. “And you just took the money to buy these two sportscars? That’s too much! That’s my money! How can you just use it to buy your car without my approval? These cars are too expensive; all they do is burn a hole in your pocket. It’s fine if we’re rich, but we wouldn’t even be able to feed ourselves if we weren’t!”

“Luckily jackie and Selena make good money now. It won’t be a problem!” Andrew chimed in from the side. He stared at the handsome new cars, the red coat of paint that gleamed over their bodies. The sight sent a chill down his spine.

“Where did you find the money then? Tell me, jackie, did you find my 3.8 million? I told you to find it for me, not use it to buy new cars.” Fiona glared at jackie, panting with anger as she asked the questions. That was her money—her life.

jackie thought about it for a while, and soon after, he chuckled. “Mom, how could I?” he said, smiling. “This isn’t your money at all!”

“Then is it yours? You punk. You still have that much money? How much do you still have? Take it out and give me my 3.8 million…” Fiona stuck her hand out towards jackie as she asked for the money.

jackie flashed a mirthless smile. “It’s not my money either. Tanya bought the cars for me. Heh!”

Selena also released a sigh of relief. “That’s right. Tanya does everything without a thought given to it,” she added quickly. “She just gave each of us a car after she found out that we have none. It’s so that we’ll have our own transport to work!”

“So Tanya gave them to you? That’s awesome! She gave such expensive cars to us just like that. My goodness, our luck might just run out!” Andrew was extremely excited. He stepped forward and carefully trailed his hand over the car as though he was touching a child’s unmarred skin. “How much is one of this? At least a million? It’s a Porsche, right?”

It was obvious that Andrew did not know cars.

“Dad, it’s the Porsche 911. The cheapest model costs at least 1 million, but this doesn’t look like the 1 million-dollars model!” Ben spoke as he raked his eyes over the car.

“Tanya is such a nice person!” Joan had just emerged from the kitchen. She had overheard the entire conversation and gracefully spoke, “I don’t know how we can ever thank Miss Tanya! She’s our savior; she’s helped us so much before, and now she’s given us such luxurious cars.”

make everyone believe that Tanya had given the cars, jackie tacked on after he thought about it for a while. “These cars aren’t actually ours, either; they’re Miss Tanya’s. She just bought them to let us drive them, so basically they’re hers. We’re only given the chance to drive
