Chapter 2 Choice

Wei Yuxian didn't know how long she had been walking. It was September, a sunny season, but she felt cold all over and didn't see any hope.

The sun set in the west, the shadows were lengthened, and the scorching weather still didn't cool down.

Wei Yuxian was tired and hungry, her stomach was empty, and she had no food, but she had no money, not a penny, and couldn't buy food.

I didn't know what time it was, Wei Yuxian finally stopped walking like a zombie, she took a deep breath, and there was a glimmer of light in her eyes.

Now, except staying in Kyoto to work, she had no other way out. At least, she had to survive in Kyoto first, and then talk about other things.

She dragged her luggage and began to look for recruitment in the shops on the roadside.

After walking for a while, she didn't see any shops with recruitment signs, but a man in a black suit stopped her.

Wei Yuxian looked at him with a vigilant look, protecting the luggage beside her, which was all her belongings, and asked: "Are you okay?"

The man looked at her with a smile and took a step closer to her. Wei Yuxian immediately took a step back and kept a distance from him.

The man saw her actions, but he was not angry. He just asked: "Little girl, are you short of money?"

Hearing this, Wei Yuxian became more vigilant. She did not answer immediately, but looked at the surrounding environment, looking for an opportunity to escape.

A stranger came out casually on the road and asked her if she was short of money. It was very abnormal to think about it!

The man was afraid that she would really run away, so he hurriedly said: "Little girl, I'm not a bad person. Do you think I look like a bad person like this?"

Wei Yuxian looked at him with an expression that said you are sick. Which bad person would write the four words "I am a bad person" on his face? These days, are bad people so rampant?

The man was a little helpless and said, "I'm really not a bad person. I just... saw you looking so miserable, and wondered if you were short of money, so I came up to ask you. If you're not, then I'll leave."

Wei Yuxian licked her chapped lips, looked him up and down, and saw that he didn't look like a bad person, so she said, "Why? You want to give me money?"

There are so many people around, if this man is really a bad person, she can ask for help from the people around him.

The man smiled and said, "It's understandable, but there is a price to pay."

Wei Yuxian became wary again and asked, "What's the price?"

The man looked around and saw a noodle shop and said, "Let's go in and eat and talk."

Wei Yuxian thought of her empty wallet, licked her chapped lips to moisten them, and said with some embarrassment, "Let's talk here."

The man saw her embarrassment and said: "I'll treat you to food. Let's go. There are people around here. If I want to do anything to you, I won't have a chance. You can rest assured. If you are not short of money, then When I say it in vain.”

After saying that, the man turned around and walked towards the noodle shop, without looking to see if Wei Yuxian followed him.

He was eighty percent confident that she would follow.

Wei Yuxian looked at the man's back, pursed her lips, gritted her teeth and followed him.

Anyway, she is like this now, can it be worse? At least if you follow me, you can still have a bowl of noodles to fill your stomach first.

She dragged her luggage and followed the man into the noodle shop. The man smiled and asked her what she wanted to eat.

The man went to order two bowls of noodles, and she sat down at the table near the door.

The noodle shop was quite large and played music she didn't know, but it was not dinner time and there was no one in the shop except her and the man.

The man came back quickly and sat down opposite her, still with a smile on his face.

Wei Yuxian's mouth was extremely dry. After pouring two large cups of tea into her stomach, she felt much better. Her lips were finally no longer dry.

She looked at the man opposite, touched her lips, and asked, "What is the price you mentioned?"

Man: "Don't worry, we'll talk while eating later."

The noodles came out quickly. Wei Yuxian didn't care about burning them. She took a few bites to make her stomach feel less uncomfortable. She raised her head and said, "Can we talk now?"

The man stirred the noodles calmly and said while stirring: "The price is very simple, it's yours - the first night."

The man said the last three words very quietly, but Wei Yuxian still heard them clearly.

Instantly, she stopped picking up the noodles, staring at the man in front of her. After a few seconds, she put down her chopsticks and looked at the man coldly.

Her tone was also cold: "I won't do such a thing!"

The man ate a mouthful of noodles calmly under her gaze, and then said: "Don't rush to refuse, listen to the reward and then give me an answer."

Wei Yuxian's attitude did not change, and her tone did not change. She repeated what she had just said: "I won't do such a thing! Sir, this noodle, you should..." Eat it yourself.

"Ten thousand yuan." The man looked at her, "After tonight, your income will be ten thousand yuan."

Wei Yuxian hesitated, she looked at the man fearlessly, and after a few seconds, she stirred the noodles in the bowl a few times, "I need to think about it."

"No problem, I'll wait for you."

Wei Yuxian ate the noodles absent-mindedly, and the noodles that were originally delicious became tasteless now.

Ten thousand yuan, this is not a small amount!

If she had ten thousand yuan, she would not have to go to work and could continue to go to school.

But the price...

This price is too high.

She was very conflicted, not knowing whether to agree or not. This choice would determine how she would go in the future!

Should she continue to study or go out to work?

A few minutes later, Wei Yuxian finished her noodles and even drank up the soup. She was indeed hungry.

She looked at the man and said, "Okay. But I have to get the money first."

She agreed. At the fork in the road ahead, she made a choice.

It was just once. After this crisis, she would never have to face such a choice again!

Knowledge is power. Her only goal in coming to Kyoto is to go to college. She doesn't want to live a mediocre life and live at the bottom of society. She wants to change her fate!

So she agreed.

With this money, she can pay tuition fees, and the remaining money can be used as living expenses. If she lives frugally and works part-time, she should be able to finish college.

Thinking of this, Wei Yuxian can't help but see that a beautiful college life is waving at her.

The man seemed not surprised by her answer and said, "Okay, I'll transfer it to you now."

They added WeChat friends, and after a while, Wei Yuxian received a transfer of 10,000 yuan.

"Did you receive it?"

"Yes."

The man put down his phone and asked, "Are you full? Do you want another one? I'll treat you."

Wei Yuxian shook her head: "No, thank you."

"Okay, then you can follow me now."
