When he got home, Yang Yi waited for Xi Xi to go to bed before he took the money in the two luggage bags to the study.
The money that Yang Yi had withdrawn from the bank that day was in the gray luggage bag. It was his income from the book "Soldiers' Assault" last month. The other dark green duffel bag contained the "reward" he received for reporting the corrupt official.
Of course, it was no longer two million. Yang Yi had bought the car, renovated the coffee shop, and other expenses. He had spent more than eight hundred thousand, close to nine hundred thousand!
That was quite a lot!
Luckily, Yang Yi easily got it back …
He opened the dark green luggage bag and took out the scattered money. Then, he took out the money from the gray luggage bag and placed it neatly into the dark green luggage bag.
He counted until the money in the dark green luggage bag reached two million!
There was still one hundred and twenty-two thousand and seven hundred left in the gray luggage bag. Yang Yi took it out and placed it neatly in the drawer in his study for his daily use.
Yang Yi liked to keep a large amount of cash at home. On one hand, it was because the concept of mobile payment didn't exist in this world. On the other hand, it was because of his habit from his previous life — he could take the money and run away anytime!
Even though he didn't need to do that now, Yang Yi still lacked a sense of security …
Speaking of which, after Yang Yi tidied up the dark green luggage bag, he finally let out a sigh of relief.
Back then, when he took the two million from the corrupt official Luo Jinrong's vault, Yang Yi thought that he could take it with a clear conscience, just like in his previous life, and leave with his reward.
However, under Mo Fei's interrogation, Yang Yi found that although he had deceived her by making up a lie, there was a heavy shackle on his heart!
It turned out that there were so many restrictions in the world of ordinary people!
Yang Yi gradually distinguished the conflict between his previous life and his current life. Take the "reward" for example. Yang Yi might have thought of it as a reward for his efforts, but to ordinary people, the money was ill-gotten wealth.
How could the corrupt officials take the wealth of the people and use it for themselves?
Carrying out justice on behalf of the heavens, and you still want to "steal while you're at it"? Then what right do you have to say that you're walking on the path of justice?
If he had even deceived his own daughter's mother, how could he use this money with a clear conscience?
Since he had decided to completely integrate into the world of ordinary people, Yang Yi was also slowly changing his mindset.
Although it was impossible for Murphy to discover the existence of the money, Yang Yi felt that if he didn't handle it properly, there would always be a demon in his heart!
How could this be?
Yang Yi wanted to live a carefree life!
Therefore, after he received the copyright income last month, Yang Yi took back the money that really belonged to him and made up for the hole that he originally took out.
The only thing left was how to deal with the two million!
Fortunately, Yang Yi already had a plan.
…
After two weeks of hitting the charts with her new song, Murphy could finally come back and rest for a few days. Although these few days weren't completely a rest, she still had to participate in some programs in Jiangcheng. Murphy still wanted Yang Yi to send Xi Xi home. She missed her daughter!
When Yang Yi saw Murphy, she still looked cold, but in front of Yang Yi, she didn't hide it. Her eyes were still full of fatigue and loneliness.
"I saw it in the newspaper," Yang Yi hesitated and said, "The situation of your new album isn't very good."
Murphy was hugging Xi Xi. The mother and daughter were interacting intimately. When she heard Yang Yi's words, Murphy pursed her lips and said stiffly, "Let's not talk about this."
Although her relationship with Yang Yi had eased, Murphy's understanding of Yang Yi was still in the past. She felt that Yang Yi was still very dissatisfied with her work in the entertainment industry. Therefore, if she could avoid talking about this with Yang Yi, she didn't want to talk about it.
What's more, Murphy had been beaten black and blue by the poor sales of her album in the past two weeks. Home seemed to be her only safe haven. Why would she involve those troubles?
Murphy's tone was still very uncomfortable, but Yang Yi was still not angry. He still felt that Murphy's situation was very bad, but the problem wasn't with Murphy herself. It was just that the songs in her new album were too bad!
If he were to "write songs" for Murphy, with Murphy's ability, it wouldn't be impossible for her to return to the top! What's more, he could sell songs to an unfamiliar singer like Chen Yijie. How could he just stand by and watch Murphy be depressed?
She, she is Xi Xi's mother!
Yang Yi muttered to himself for a moment and said, "I think that I might be able to help you …"
Murphy was a little unhappy. She interrupted Yang Yi and said irritably, "No need. You stay at home and take care of Xi Xi. Let me deal with the problems in my career, okay?"
Choking for a moment, Yang Yi swallowed back the words of wanting to help her write a song.
Seriously! A dog biting Lu Dongbin, she doesn't know how to appreciate kindness!
Yang Yi was also a guy with strong self-esteem. He didn't want to shamelessly stick to other people's cold buttocks!
Murphy looked at Yang Yi and didn't say anything. She was actually a little flustered in her heart. Of course, Murphy didn't know what she missed out on, but she didn't know why, but she inexplicably cared about Yang Yi's feelings.
"Would he be angry? Sigh, did I lose my temper again just now? "Mo Fei started to blame herself.
However, even so, with her cold personality, it was difficult for her to take the initiative to apologize to Yang Yi. Murphy's idea was also very strange. If he wasn't willing to give in on the issue that she insisted on, then … she could just compensate him in other areas.
The two of them seemed to have parted on bad terms this time.
After sending Xi Xi to Murphy's place, Yang Yi could be said to have a few days of vacation. He followed his plan and threw the dark green luggage bag into the car. Then, he took some simple clothes and drove all the way west to a relatively poor western province.
"You are Zhu Luyan?" Yang Yi met with the person he contacted earlier.
Zhu Luyan, this was the founder of a non-governmental charity organization. Although he looked dark and thin and dressed like a migrant worker, Yang Yi still knew that this guy's background wasn't small. He was born in a big family in the capital, a rich family!
But because Zhu Luyan's relationship was strongly interfered with by his family, he angrily left the capital and left his original pride and status!
Of course, Zhu Luyan still hoped to make some achievements to prove himself, so he chose to do charity with his girlfriend. Moreover, he was very creative and established a project called "Dream Primary School." Through donations, they were dedicated to building well-equipped schools in poor areas to help those children realize their dreams.
Of course, they had only built three schools so far. After all, the donations weren't much. Most of the money came from Zhu Luyan selling his luxury car. He wasn't willing to use his family's connections to trick others into donating money …
Before this, Yang Yi had done a detailed investigation and even borrowed the dark power of this world. Therefore, he was still very assured about Zhu Luyan's project. It just so happened that his two million yuan could be used appropriately, and Yang Yi didn't have to worry too much.
After Zhu Luyan and Yang Yi confirmed each other's identity, he carried the dark green luggage bag that Yang Yi gave him. He was so excited that he trembled a little. He said, "Mr. Yang Yi, your two million yuan is really timely. Moreover, we can let two more children in poor areas have a place to study!"
Zhu Luyan's excitement, of course, wasn't because he had never seen so much money before, but because it was the first time he received such a large donation. Moreover, it came at such a timely time, so he didn't need to ask his family for help. He regained the confidence to do a good job in charity!
Yang Yi smiled slightly and said, "Mr. Zhu, I have a question, but I don't know if I should ask."
"Go ahead."
"I'm just suggesting a little. The name of your project – Dream Primary School sounds weird. Would it be better to call it Hope Primary School?"
