Chapter 107 Yu Mei Obtains Funds (Yu Mei Loses Contact with Liu Ying on Her First Trip to Shenzhen)

Yu Mei was indeed swayed by the 500,000 yuan savings account in front of her. 500,000 yuan was a huge sum of money in the 1980s.

At that time, for ordinary rural families, this was only the highest standard of living, equivalent to a household with 10,000 yuan in income.

She was just an ordinary woman from a humble family; she had never seen such a large bankbook before. She couldn't believe it was real. What if it was fake? It would really elevate the status of that old, manly mine manager who knew how to fool girls.

She decisively went to a nearby bank and asked the staff to check if it was a genuine deposit book.

A few minutes later, when they arrived at the bank, the staff confirmed that there was indeed 50 yuan in deposits.

The staff looked at her for a few minutes and wondered how someone so young and pretty could have such a huge amount of money in the account, especially since the account holder was indeed a girl named Yang Yumei.

Of course, Yu Mei showed her ID card to the staff.

She then took the bankbook containing her ID card and rented a place in the building.

She then became Guo Shoucai's young and beautiful mistress in a legitimate way! Guo Shoucai then moved into Yu Mei's house openly.

She also picked up the three gold pieces that Guo Shoucai had bought for her that she had thrown away.

The community has surveillance cameras installed in every corner, so even if someone sees it, they could pick it up while masked. Unfortunately, she threw it in a corner inside her own balcony.

How could she possibly throw away such a precious gift as the Three Golds? In her entire life, she had never received such a valuable gift.

Even Chen Lixin, who treated her sincerely, never gave her anything in return.

Think back to how much I sacrificed for someone I loved, and what did I get in return?

She sat on the sofa, looking at the savings book with 50 yuan and the three pieces of gold jewelry placed on it. She wanted to cry, and then she wanted to laugh! She wanted to laugh; she could finally hold her head high in front of her family. She wanted to cry, thinking of all the hardships Chen Lixin had made her suffer, the disdain from her siblings, and the contempt from people in and around the village and her classmates for her poverty!

As she thought about it, a few dried tears fell from her eyes. From the day she walked out of the Civil Affairs Bureau, she didn't want to cry anymore, and she never wanted to cry again! Crying was a sign of weakness and helplessness.

Then she wiped away her tears and waited for Guo Shoucai to return.

Suddenly, there was a rapid knocking sound at the door, "bang, bang, bang..." The sound was urgent and panicked, as if the person knocking was chasing something.

So Yu Mei stood up. She thought that this was definitely not Lao Guo knocking on the door. Besides, Lao Guo had his own key. She had given him a key a few days ago so he could come in anytime.

Then she hurriedly went to look through the peephole of the living room door. When she looked closely, she saw that it was a strange middle-aged woman banging on the door.

Behind the middle-aged woman were two thugs, menacingly peering through the peephole of Yu Mei's door.

She hurriedly turned around, quickly picked up Guo Shoucai's bankbook and the three gold items that were on the sofa, and put them in a place where no one would notice.

She knew this woman must be Guo Shoucai's wife, and judging from her demeanor, she was no pushover!

Yu Mei and Guo Shoucai have been together for over two years. During this time, in addition to the 50 yuan and three gold items he had previously given her, Guo Shoucai also bought Yu Mei a high-rise apartment in another city. Of course, the property deed was registered under Yang Yu Mei's real name.

They were just getting ready to move in together. They had just finished renovating the high-rise apartment and were waiting to move in when his wife arrived.

Yu Mei composed herself, took a deep breath, and opened the door. Guo Shou Cai's wife rushed in like a madwoman, trying to grab Yu Mei, but Yu Mei dodged to the side. The two thugs also followed her into the house, standing menacingly to the side.

"You vixen, you seduced my man!" Guo Shoucai's wife cursed viciously.

Yu Mei pretended to be innocent and said, "Big sister, you misunderstood. Brother Guo just took pity on me and often patronized my business."

"Hmph, stop pretending. I've investigated everything. He bought you a house, gave you money, and even gold."

At this moment, Yu Mei's eyes darted around and she said, "Big sister, actually it was Brother Guo who forced me. I'm just a weak woman and I don't dare to resist. I can return the house and the money to you. I just beg you to spare my life."

Guo Shoucai's wife hesitated upon hearing this. Her intention was simply to get her belongings back, and she didn't want to escalate the situation. Just as she was pondering this, Guo Shoucai suddenly burst in. It turned out he had rushed over after learning that his wife had come looking for Yu Mei.

He yelled at his wife, "What are you doing here? Go back right now!" His wife started crying and screaming, leaving the two thugs bewildered. Yu Mei seized the opportunity to slip out of the room. She thought she couldn't let this complicated relationship drag on any longer, so she decided to take the 50 yuan and the three gold pieces and run away to start a new life. She disappeared at the end of the corridor.

Even if they didn't have time to deal with the house that Guo Shoucai had just bought for himself in another city, with Yang Yumei's name on the property certificate, they wouldn't dare touch her house even if they had three heads and six arms.

She'll come back and deal with the high-rise apartment owned by the beautiful woman whose property is valued at 50 yuan once things calm down here.

Several years passed after Yang Yumei left, and Guo Shoucai's wife stopped questioning his affair with Yumei. Further questioning would likely have resulted in her being divorced, and the man became even more brazen in his extramarital affairs. A saying circulated: "Money corrupts men!" Who told her husband to own a coal mine, and not just a small one, but also a gold mine?

That very night, Yang Yumei boarded a slow, green train heading south. She also wanted to start a clothing business. Since she had money, why keep it unused? Why watch Yuhan run the clothing business so successfully and enthusiastically for so many years?

They were born from the same root, meaning they had the same parents, so what's the difference? Is my brain worse than hers? I'm just a bit lazier than Yu Han, so what? Lazy people have their own blessings; it's because I'm lazy that I have at least a million yuan in assets today.

With this wealth, I don't believe I can't run a fake business like Yu Han. What Yu Han can have, Yu Mei can have too, otherwise it would be a waste that she has such a pretty face.

Of course, Yu Mei knew in her heart that Yu Han's beauty surpassed her own, but she also had her own kind of beauty. Otherwise, why would there be so many lecherous men everywhere, making it impossible for her to guard against them?

Yu Mei took a three-day, three-night train ride and got off at the Shenzhen train station. She was there to find Liu Ying.

The day before Liu Ying moved out of the rented courtyard, she invited several classmates who lived in the courtyard to dinner. At the table, she wrote a small note for each of them, containing the address of her uncle and aunt who lived in Shenzhen, in the south.

Yang Yumei took the small piece of paper with Liu Ying's old address, inquired around, took a bus, and finally found Liu Ying's address.

It was already late, and she was exhausted from carrying so many bags, only to find that she hadn't arrived at all.

Well, it's cool now. Before coming here, she was full of ambition and determination to make a name for herself in Shenzhen. She wanted to stand out from the crowd and become better and richer.

Now look what's happened! She can't even hold onto Liu Ying's last straw, so how can she talk about doing better than her cousin Yu Han!

What should she do now? Should she find a hotel to stay in? She had once heard her second aunt say that Yu Han was going to see Liu Ying about the clothing factory. Yu Han had Liu Ying's phone number, but he didn't want to have any contact with Yu Han at the time, so he didn't ask for Liu Ying's phone number.

Now she felt a pang of regret. How could she have spoken ill of Yu Han like that? Yu Han hadn't done anything to wrong her. It was just that she was jealous of Yu Han!

As Yu Mei pondered this, she arrived at the door of a small hotel not far from the city center.

Then the shop owner and his wife stood at the door, seeing her carrying large bags and small packages, they could tell she was from out of town. They exchanged a glance, and then a sinister smile appeared in their eyes!

Then, the landlady stepped forward and greeted her warmly: "Miss, looking for a place to stay? Our place is very cheap." Yu Mei looked around and, although she felt it was a bit run-down, she had no other choice but to follow her into the shop.

The male boss followed closely behind into the store. While registering, the boss secretly glanced at Yu Mei's bulging bag and whispered a few words to his wife.

Yu Mei entered the room and sat down wearily. Soon, she heard strange noises outside, and a sense of unease crept into her heart. She quietly went to the door to eavesdrop, only to hear the boss say in a low voice, "That girl definitely has a lot of money in her bag. Let's make our move tonight." Yu Mei was terrified and frantically searched for an escape route. The windows were too high to get out, so she could only pin her hopes on the door.

She devised a plan. She knocked over a chair in the room, making a noise, and then hid in the shadows behind the door. The innkeeper and his wife, thinking something had happened to Yu Mei, hurriedly opened the door and rushed into the room to check. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Yu Mei suddenly dashed out of the room and ran out of the inn. The innkeeper and his wife realized they had been tricked and gave chase.

In a panic, Yu Mei ran into the street and saw a group of patrolling police officers. She quickly ran over to them for help. The police stopped the boss and his wife who were chasing after her.

Yu Mei was still shaken and realized she couldn't act so rashly. She found a reputable hotel to stay in and decided to rethink her development plans in Shenzhen the next day, no longer willing to take unnecessary risks.

However, no sooner had one problem been solved than another arose! She took the bait again!
