Madam’s Awakening Shocks The Whole World

Chapter 26: Chapter 24: I’m Not a Scammer (Please Collect Votes) Chapter 26: Chapter 24: I’m Not a Scammer (Please Collect Votes) After leaving the Jing Family, I had the driver take me to Peng County Town, ready to have a stroll on my own.

Digging out the two cards that Tang Xin and Mother Tang and Mr. Tang had given me after leaving, Qin Qin smiled. She didn’t refuse. She indeed needed money now and there was no need to be pretentious about declining what she deserved.

When she checked the balance at the bank’s ATM, she found that one card held one hundred thousand yuan and the other astonishingly contained five hundred thousand.

She didn’t expect that this family would be so generous. Although sixty thousand yuan might not mean much to many people, she knew that in Peng County Town, this sum could buy a nice house in a good location with some left over.

Having pocketed the cards, Qin Qin cheerfully began wandering around. Since her rebirth, she had never taken the time to just wander and she didn’t know the specific circumstances of this world. The former Qin Qin always kept herself closed off, rarely having the mood or money to enjoy such leisure.

Walking on the street and watching the bustling intersection, Qin Qin held a faint smile and took a deep breath.

She was actually quite satisfied with her current ordinary life. In her past life, wherever she went she was sought after, but it wasn’t what she wanted; nobody treated her sincerely. They were only interested in her astonishing medical skills. Living in such an environment, filled with constant scheming, had worn her out.

In this world, although there were oddities, those were minor. People like Lee Shuhua might have foul mouths, but they would be terrified to do truly bad things like killing someone.

Engrossed in her thoughts, Qin Qin realized she had already reached the town center and stood before a seven-story building which, from memory, she knew was the only large shopping mall in Peng County.

Without hesitation, she stepped into the mall and directly went to the clothing section on the second floor to browse. She wanted to buy a few suitable outfits for Qin An. The man had worked hard all his life, lived frugally, and had given much for Qin Qin, yet he neglected himself. Now that she lived on as Qin Qin, she couldn’t let him continue to suffer.

“Welcome, may I help you with anything?” A pretty sales associate in uniform approached with a smile, but when she saw Qin Qin, her eyebrows furrowed, “Is it you?”

Qin Qin arched an eyebrow at the sales associate, “Do you know me?”

In her memory, there was no trace of this woman.

The pretty sales associate, Zhang Yueh, gave a mocking smile, “I certainly don’t know a swindler like you.”

“Swindler?” A dark flash crossed Qin Qin’s eyes, followed by a chilly smile, “Sister, you should watch your mouth.”

“You…”
“What seems to be the problem here?”

An older sales associate came over, seeing that Zhang Yueh had started a quarrel with a customer and asked what was going on.

“Sister Lee, this girl is a swindler, we can’t sell clothes to a swindler,” Zhang Yueh said, grabbing the hand of the elder sales associate, Sister Lee.

“Swindler?” Sister Lee glanced at Qin Qin, noting the girl’s modest yet attractive appearance and an extraordinary aura. From her past experience, this girl didn’t seem like the swindler Zhang Yueh described.

Upon seeing that Sister Lee seemed somewhat unconvinced, Zhang Yueh hurriedly blurted out, “Sister Lee, it’s true. I saw her with my own eyes setting up a stall at Puzhao Temple, deceiving people and even claiming to be a divine healer and fortune-teller. You must believe me.”

“Young lady,” Sister Lee called out to Qin Qin in a gentle tone.

“I’m not a swindler,” Qin Qin said firmly, not waiting for Zhang Yueh to finish speaking.

Seeing the determination in Qin Qin’s eyes, Sister Lee nodded with a smile, “I believe you.”

Somehow, Sister Lee really believed Qin Qin, a girl with the demeanor of an orchid, couldn’t possibly be a swindler.

“Sister Lee, how can you believe her? She’s truly a Swindler, even lying about being some sort of divine doctor,” Zhang Yueh bit her teeth fiercely. Does Sister Lee not have a brain, actually willing to trust a swindler?

Sister Lee frowned slightly, not quite liking Zhang Yueh’s words. Zhang Yueh, relying on her youth, never really respected her as a senior employee and often even took credit for her work, and she didn’t behave properly even when selling clothes to customers.

“Alright, alright, you go take care of the other customers, I’ll take care of this one,” Sister Lee said with a cold face, no longer wanting to deal with the incessantly talking Zhang Yueh.

Zhang Yueh was unhappy but still left with a pout, not believing that this Swindler truly intended to buy clothes—maybe she was just like what others had said, coming to scout something out.

“I’m sorry, young lady, she is ignorant, I hope you won’t mind,” Sister Lee said to Qin Qin with a gentle smile.

Qin Qin shook her head, “I won’t take offense at irrelevant people.”

After saying this, Qin Qin went straight to the left side of the store and started seriously selecting clothes. Sister Lee walked up to Qin Qin and asked, “May I know who you are picking these out for?”

“My father.”

Sister Lee nodded, impressed. She hadn’t expected the young girl before her to be such a filial daughter. It was rare to see such young girls picking out clothes for their parents; they were usually pestering their own parents to buy things for them.

“Let me help you choose then. The clothes here are of good quality and not too expensive.” Sister Lee picked out several sets of clothing that were of nice quality and reasonably priced and handed them to Qin Qin. Qin Qin glanced at them and nodded, “Okay, wrap them up, and also these sets over here.”

Qin Qin chose several coats costing a couple of thousand yuan each, shirts priced at a few hundred yuan each, and casual trousers for Qin An.

Sister Lee looked at Qin Qin in disbelief. Seeing the clothes in her hand must be worth several thousand yuan, she kindly reminded her, “Young lady, this is going to cost a pretty penny, are you…”

Zhang Yueh was selecting clothes for another customer who looked very wealthy. Hearing Sister Lee’s words, she then sneered in derision towards them, thinking this girl must be crazy, buying such expensive items; she wondered whether this girl would actually have the money when it came time to pay, just pretending to be rich when she’s not.

“It’s fine, wrap them up, and I will pay by card.” Qin Qin handed the clothes to Sister Lee and pulled out the card with five hundred thousand yuan from her bag; she had planned to give the card with one hundred thousand yuan to Qin An. Initially, she had also considered giving the card with five hundred thousand yuan to Qin An, but worried it might scare him, she decided it would be better to give him the card with one hundred thousand yuan.

After Qin Qin took out the card, Sister Lee realized that the young girl in front of her was certainly not as ordinary as she seemed. Although her clothes were a bit shabby, who could claim she had no money? To be able to swipe several thousand yuan without even a frown, at her age, in this small town, maybe she was the first.

After swiping the card through the POS machine, Sister Lee packed up the clothes Qin Qin had chosen and respectfully handed them to her.

Qin Qin put away her card and took the bag of clothes from Sister Lee’s hand, but instead of turning to leave, she spoke to Sister Lee.

“Have you been feeling a severe pain in your lower abdomen recently?”
