Chapter 180 Give Me the Key
Chapter 180 Give Me the Key
Ma Junjie was startled upon hearing this, thinking to himself,
A person who can make you rich?
Could it be the few people who control resources that Carina Lau mentioned earlier?
Ma Junjie couldn't imagine it.
If someone really does come to help me, then in this huge city of Dongguan, I might not be far from getting rich.
Carina Lau slowly covered her thighs with the thin blanket.
wave goodbye.
"Ah Jie, go back and rest for a bit. I'll call you again this afternoon."
As she spoke, Carina Lau slowly lay down.
Ma Junjie looked at Carina Lau and nodded.
"Okay, Sister Liu, then... I'll head back now."
"I'm on my way, I'll buy you some medicine first, I'll give it to you when we meet this afternoon."
"Okay, see you this afternoon."
Ma Junjie turned around, opened the bedroom door, and walked out.
After he went outside, he gently closed the door and let out a long sigh of relief.
"Whew, that was close!"
Even now, Ma Junjie is still wondering...
Was Carina Lau really just trying to test me?
But looking into her eyes and expression, which were clearly full of longing, it was obvious that she genuinely wanted him to... help her...
"Sigh, forget it, stop thinking about it!" Ma Junjie muttered to himself.
Then I glanced at Liu Bingbing's bedroom next door; the door was still tightly closed.
He smiled and then walked out.
After going outside and downstairs, Ma Junjie rode his motorcycle to a nearby bank to withdraw money, and then went to a pharmacy to buy some traditional Chinese medicine.
Ma Junjie wasn't just talking nonsense.
Carina Lau does indeed have some kidney deficiency and spleen deficiency, and needs some traditional Chinese medicine to regulate her body.
After arriving at the pharmacy and buying the medicine,
Ma Junjie checked the time and realized it was already past 11 a.m.
He touched his stomach, which only contained the wine he had drunk yesterday. He hadn't eaten anything since he got up early this morning, and now it was growling with hunger.
Ma Junjie suddenly remembered Pang Hu.
Yes, I told him to close the door, and he still has the key.
Ma Junjie took out his phone and called Pang Hu.
The call was answered quickly by Gian.
Ma Junjie asked,
"Gian, where are you?"
Upon hearing Ma Junjie's voice, Fatty Tiger, whether excited or thrilled, responded repeatedly.
"Brother Jie, where are you? I need to tell you something!"
"Hahaha!" Ma Junjie burst into laughter.
"Fat Tiger, don't panic, listen to me first."
Fat Tiger swallowed hard and stopped.
Ma Junjie said,
"Fat Tiger, I'll treat you to lunch later, at the same restaurant as last night."
"By the way, are you still at my house?"
Upon hearing this, Fat Tiger's expression changed drastically, and he shook his head repeatedly.
"Brother Jie, I...I..."
Hearing Pang Hu's anxious tone, and how he could barely speak, Ma Junjie assumed that Pang Hu must also be starving.
He burst into laughter.
"Okay, Gian, don't rush me."
"Go to the restaurant first, I'll be right there."
After saying that, Ma Junjie hung up the phone, then with a roar, he twisted the throttle and the motorcycle flew off.
Twenty minutes later, Ma Junjie parked his motorcycle in front of the Sichuan Restaurant.
He parked his motorcycle, took the packet of traditional Chinese medicine, and went inside.
Just then, the proprietress, Li Yuanyuan, came out of the kitchen.
Upon seeing Ma Junjie, he called out enthusiastically.
"Ah Jie, you're back?"
Ma Junjie chuckled.
"Yes, Sister Yuan!"
"Sister Yuan, here are the motorcycle keys. Thank you so much for today!"
Ma Junjie reached out and handed over the keys.
Li Yuanyuan took the keys and smiled faintly.
"Ah Jie, you're welcome. It was nothing. If you need a car again in the future, just come and get it."
Ma Junjie expressed his heartfelt gratitude.
He looked around and asked.
"By the way, Sister Yuan, have you seen my brother, Fatty Tiger?"
Li Yuanyuan pointed to a corner.
"Gian is over there, he arrived a few minutes earlier."
"What, are you getting ready for lunch?"
Ma Junjie nodded.
"Yes, Sister Yuan, thank you for making us just a couple of dishes."
"I drank all yesterday and didn't eat anything this morning, so I'm starving."
"Oh, you guys!" Sister Yuan smiled, but with a hint of reproach in her voice.
"Okay, go sit down!"
"I'll prepare it for you, you just need to wait and eat."
Ma Junjie grinned.
"Thank you, Sister Yuan!"
After saying that, Ma Junjie walked towards Fatty Tiger in the corner.
Fat Tiger seemed to be feeling unwell, his head resting on the table, motionless.
Ma Junjie walked over and called out softly.
"Gian, are you alright?"
Upon hearing Ma Junjie's voice, Fat Tiger abruptly raised his head.
He immediately said,
"Oh, Brother Jie, you...you've finally arrived!"
Ma Junjie was a little puzzled, and laughed.
"Gian, what's wrong? You miss me already after only being gone a short while?"
Fat Tiger let out a heavy sigh, as if he had something on his mind.
"Brother Jie, it's not a question of whether I miss you or not, it's just that..."
Fat Tiger hesitated, unsure of what to say.
Ma Junjie rolled his eyes at him and plopped down in bed.
Seeing some sunflower seeds on the table, I grabbed a handful and slowly started cracking them open.
"Fat Tiger, don't talk about anything else yet, just give me my house key."
"After lunch, I'm going back to sleep. I have important things to do this afternoon."
"Huh?" Upon hearing Ma Junjie's words, Pang Hu immediately stood up.
Looking at Ma Junjie with utter terror,
"Brother Jie, you...you...no!"
Ma Junjie held a sunflower seed to his mouth, then froze, motionless.
"Gian, what's wrong with you acting so strangely?"
"I told you to give me the keys, and you said no... What exactly did you not want?"
Fat Tiger, flustered, swallowed hard.
"Brother Jie, the key... I don't have the key with me, I put it on the windowsill for you."
"But I advise you not to go back!"
"Don't you want to go back?" Ma Junjie tossed the sunflower seeds in his hand aside.
Staring at Fat Tiger with a puzzled expression,
"Fat Tiger, there's something strange about you. I rented this place myself, why don't I want to go back?"
"Gian, what's wrong? Tell me honestly!"
"Did you do something shady in my room after I left?"
Fat Tiger waved his hands repeatedly upon hearing this.
"No, no, Brother Jie, what shameful thing could I possibly do!"
Ma Junjie grew anxious and pressed for an answer.
"Then... then tell me honestly, what exactly happened?"
Gian finally couldn't hold back any longer; his brow furrowed.
Said,
"Brother Jie, the house you rented is unlucky..."
"It's...it's a haunted house!"
