Before long, the old man walked over, smiling at Ling Yue, "Little girl, we'll take the cup. Will it be a bank transfer? Or shall I give you a check?"
"A bank transfer. But you need to accompany me to the bank. I want to get a bank card," said Ling Yue. She had an ID card and planned to apply for a bank card at the bank to make things more convenient in the future. The ID card was given to her by Granny Xu when she was at the hospital.
"Sure, let's go to the bank," said the old man, looking at Ling Yue's eyes. She was wearing a mask and he couldn't see her appearance, but from the temperament and wisdom gleaming in her eyes, he knew this little girl was extraordinary. Moreover, for her to spot the leak of the Black Jade Starry Cup, she must know antiques very well. After all, even he, a professional, had missed it.
Ling Yue smiled lightly and got up.
The bank was not far from the antique street, just a 5-6 minute walk. This greatly facilitated large transactions for antique dealers.
Upon entering the bank, it didn't take long before it was Ling Yue and the old man's turn.
The two walked to the counter. Ling Yue took out her ID card and handed it to the bank clerk, "Hello, I'd like to apply for a bank card."
Uncle Fu glanced at the ID card and was slightly shocked. She turned out to be the young miss of the Ling family, Ling Yue. No wonder she had an extraordinary temperament.
The bank clerk took out a form, "Please fill out this information first."
Ling Yue nodded, took the form and a pen, filled out her name and ID number, then handed the form and ID back to the clerk.
When the bank clerk saw Ling Yue's ID card, she was stunned for a moment. Recently, two things were causing a sensation in the capital city: First, the young miss of the Ling family, Ling Yue, was disfigured in a fire at a bridal shop. Second, the eldest young master of the Zhou family broke off his engagement with Ling Yue.
The clerk stole a glance at Ling Yue wearing a mask, unable to see her appearance. She shook her head regretfully. What a beautiful face, now completely ruined.
Soon, the clerk had processed the bank card. Uncle Fu handed over his own card, "Xiao Li, please help transfer 2 million to this young lady for me." His shop often had large transactions, so he went to the bank almost every day. Naturally, he was very familiar with the bank staff.
"Sure, Uncle Fu," said Xiao Li as she took Uncle Fu's bank card and started transferring money to Ling Yue.
Before long, Xiao Li had finished processing everything for them. She returned the bank card and ID to them, "It's done. Please keep your bank card and ID safe."
"Please withdraw 20,000 cash for me," said Ling Yue. She currently had no money on her, so she definitely needed to withdraw some cash to carry with her and to spend on things in the future.
"Sure, please wait a moment!"
Shortly after, Xiao Li handed the 20,000 cash, ID and bank card to Ling Yue, "Do you need help with anything else?"
"No thanks. Thank you!" Ling Yue put away the bank card, ID and cash. She left the bank with Uncle Fu. This was the first pot of gold she had earned since arriving in this world. She must utilize this money well.
"Young lady, if you get any other good items in the future, be sure to come to me. I will definitely give you a fair price," said Uncle Fu. Now that he knew Ling Yue's identity, he felt a trace of pity for her. He had naturally heard about what happened to Ling Yue. What a nice girl, yet toyed by fate.
"Sure," Ling Yue smiled lightly and nodded before leaving.
Granny Xu had been out all day looking for a suitable job but hadn't found one. She decided to continue looking tomorrow. She wanted to find a job where she could earn money and also take care of the young miss. With the young miss's current condition, she definitely didn't feel assured leaving her alone at home.
Pushing open the yard gate, she smelled the fragrance of home cooking. Surprised, Granny Xu hurried towards the kitchen.
Upon entering, she saw three dishes and a soup on the table. Ling Yue was sitting at the table reading a book. "Young miss, did you cook all this?" Although the young miss was not doted on in the Ling family, she had never personally cooked before.
"No, I ordered takeout from a restaurant," said Ling Yue, closing her book and smiling at Granny Xu. In her previous life, she was the ruler of a nation - she naturally wouldn't cook herself.
Granny Xu breathed a sigh of relief. As long as it wasn't cooked by the young miss herself, that would be fine. Her hand injuries hadn't healed yet. She absolutely couldn't handle water.
"Young miss, wait until I get home to cook the meals from now on. Buying takeout is too expensive," said Granny Xu. She washed her hands, took out bowls and chopsticks from the cupboard, and sat down next to Ling Yue. She wanted the young miss to eat better too, but their current situation was limited. After buying daily necessities yesterday, she only had a few hundred yuan left. She had to find a job quickly.
Ling Yue took 10,000 yuan from her pocket and handed it to Granny Xu, "Granny Xu, take this money."
Granny Xu looked at the money in surprise, "Where did you get this money? It's not from Mrs. Zhou, is it?" She remembered Mrs. Zhou had given the young miss a bank card.
"No, I earned it myself. I've already returned Aunt Zhao's bank card," she said. After leaving the bank today, she had specially gone to the Zhou residence to return the bank card to their steward, asking him to pass it on to Aunt Zhao.
"You earned this?" Granny Xu was even more surprised.
Ling Yue smiled and nodded, "I went to the antique street today and found a leak. I sold the antique I picked up."
"Young miss, you really are amazing," said Granny Xu, beaming ear to ear.
"Granny Xu, don't look for work anymore. From now on, I'll provide for you," said Ling Yue. She didn't have the confidence to say this before, but now she did. She already had plans for what to do next.
"Alright, I'll listen to whatever the young miss says. Let's eat quickly before the dishes get cold," said Granny Xu, putting some dishes into Ling Yue's bowl. She would still look for work, but after the young miss's injuries healed.
As soon as Zhao Yu returned home, the steward handed her a bank card, "Mistress, Miss Ling asked me to pass this on to you. She said thank you for your kindness, but she won't be taking this money."
"That child is so stubborn," said Zhao Yu with a frown as she took the bank card. She was very aware of Ling Yue's current situation. The Ling family had completely abandoned Ling Yue now. She even heard they were unwilling to pay her medical fees.
The sound of footsteps came. Zhao Yu looked back and saw it was Zhou Mucheng. She glared fiercely at him - this rotten brat was to blame for everything. If he hadn't gone to the Ling family to break off the engagement, how could Ling Yue have fallen to this state?
