Chapter 75 A Windfall (1/2)
”I was an orphan abandoned by my parents when I was a child and was brought back by the old dean here. I grew up here. The old dean is very good that he really makes children here have a feeling of being at home.
”However, due to limited conditions, the children in the orphanage have to leave here when they are 16 years old. I am no exception. I left the orphanage after my 16th birthday.
”With no culture, no education, and no skill, after leaving here, I wander from place to place in the society and work everywhere to make a living.
”Until one day, I met a crazy fortune-telling madness. He said that my condition was very suitable for the inheritance of stealing sect so that he passed down his set of expertise and skills of stealing to me.”
Qin Haodong nodded inwardly and thought that the six men of the Divine Mercenaries were stuck in the seventh realm of Overt Power where they were practicing until their 30s who finally reached to the eighth realm of Over Power with his help. However, this girl had already reached such a realm when she was just about 20 years old. It was clear that she had a great talent in it.
”At that time, I had no place to go, so I had been learning the skills from the old man for three months. Later, the old man left. When he left, he repeatedly told me that I must abide by the rules of stealing sect that I could just steal the ill-gotten wealth and rob the rich to help the poor.
”Later, I make a living by stealing, but all of the stolen money was brought back to the orphanage to improve the life of my brothers and sisters.”
Qin Haodong could sense that the girl was sincere and didn't lie.
”I have seen the level of your theft. It is really high. You should be able to steal to get a lot of money according to your level. Why are you not at all well-off?”
The girl said with a bitter smile, ”I originally thought the same as you, but I really come to aware that stealing is not quite easy since I really start my business.
”Due to the restrictions of the rules of stealing sect, the people who I could rob were just corrupt officials and bullies, but such kind of people are not a lot. Moreover, although these people are rich, the cash they keep in their houses are not so much, which are basically fixed assets or are kept in the bank. In this case, I could steal a little money every time.
”Especially in recent years, people buy things directly with mobile phones, and do not bring money in their pockets. This makes the business of stealing more and more difficult to do that even with the best skill it is very hard to get money.”
Qin Haodong said, ”Why didn't you steal some valuable things? You can also exchange money from these, can't you?”
The girl shook her head and said, ”Wherever I am, I am by myself, so I couldn't find a way to sell these valuable things. If I am not careful enough, I will implicate the orphanage. Therefore, I usually steal the cash and don't touch other things.”
”Why did you break the rules this time and steal my jadeite?”
The girl's cheeks were reddish and she said, ”The houses in the orphanage are too old. Recently, the south of the Yangtze River is in the rainy season. Many rooms of my little brothers and sisters have rain leaked into their room, and some even have the signs of collapsion.
”So I want to make more money to rebuild the houses in order to give them a better life. However, it requires a large sum of money which is quite difficult for me.
”There is just a rough stone exhibition in the exhibition center. I think that those people who go there to buy the rough stone must be the riches, so I decide to take the chance to go there. When I arrived there, I just saw the King Green Jadeite that you get, and someone even bid a billion for it.
”I was excited at that time and thought that as long as I could get that jadeite, I would have enough money to rebuild all the houses in the orphanage and even set an air conditioner in every room.
”So I decided to make an exception. Anyway, you are also a rich man that you don't care about whether your child loste a toy or not. Therefore, I followed after you until I found that villa and got that jadiete.
”I just didn't expect that there were such powerful guards in your places who made me hurt and let me tracked by you to here.”
After listening to what the girl said, Qin Haodong was quite moved in his mind that this girl had a sense of gratitude. It was rare that she was willing to sacrifice herself for these children in the orphanage.
He raised his hand to stop the girl's acupuncture point, and then took the King Green Jadeite from the girl's pocket.
The girl who was being just absent-minded and was hit by a blow, and saw the jadeite taken back by Qin Haodong. Her eyes flashed the sadness and disappointment that was difficult to conceal.
Qin Haodong did not stop, after the jadeite was put into his pocket, he gently pulled off the girl's shirt.
”You... what are you doing?”
The girl suddenly panicked. she had just had a fearless look when she undressed herself, but now she has no such courage as that she had before. However, now her acupuncture points were controlled so she could not move at her will.
Qin Haodong stripped off the gauze that she had wrapped around her shoulder, took out a white jade bottle from his pocket and picked out some black ointment from bottle to gently apply it to the girl's injured shoulder.
The girl only felt the wound on the shoulders cool, and the pain that she felt before disappeared. She knew that he was helping her cure the wound so that she was more relaxed at once.
The black ointment in the jadeite bottle was the latest refining bone and marrowing muscle cream developed by Qin Haodong which had a miraculous effect on such kind of wound. After applying the cream, he used the Green Wood Genuine Qi to help the girl brush the injured meridians.
Soon, the whiplash on the girl's shoulders had been healed. Qin Haodong helped her dress her clothes and released her points.
Straightening her clothes, the girl looked at Qin Haodong with a complex look and said, ”Big brother, thank you.”
”You're welcome, I'm a doctor, and it's no bother.”
The girl hesitated, bit her lip and said, ”If you are so rich, can't you help these children?”
”Sure, I am really moved by your story, but this jadeite is a gift that I promised to give my daughter so I can't give it to you.”
When the girl fell back into the disappointment, Qin Haodong took out a cash check from his pocket and gave it to her.
”This is 30 million. I have given you as much as I could, but it was enough for rebuilding the house of the orphanage.”
The girl looked at the check in front of her eyes and looked at Qin Haodong quizzically. ”Big brother, are you really willing to help us?”
Qin Haodong smiled and said, ”At least for now, if you don't take it away, I am not sure about it.”
