Qingshui Street Bank Service Hall.
As the automatic door slid open to both sides, a bank staff mber in uniform with elegant makeup approached with a smile and asked, "Hello, is there anything I can assist you with?"
Li Jing glanced at the not-too-crowded hall and calmly replied, "I want to make a transfer."
"You can operate the transfer on the ATM machine nearby; if you’re not familiar with using it, I can..."
"No."
Li Jing interrupted the explanation: "I want to transfer one million, it should be impossible on the ATM machine, right?"
One million?
The bank staff slightly froze for a mont, even with her professional smile; the unexpectedness of the number took her by surprise.
Although she’s accustod to transactions of all amounts at the bank, lately she’s been helping elderly custors or handling bank card issues, and hasn’t encountered a one-million transfer in quite so ti.
Especially seeing how young the other party is, along with the calm deanor, added to her astonishnt.
But she quickly regained her professional smile, apologetically said, "Sorry, I didn’t understand your needs beforehand. If you want to transfer one million, you need to proceed to the counter."
Li Jing nodded and then, led by the staff, walked towards the counter with Huang Jun.
The conversation just now wasn’t quiet, and the surrounding people heard it, all inwardly amazed, furtively glancing back at Li Jing and Huang Jun.
A person transferring a million might not be eye-catching online, but in real life, you can rarely co across.
Especially in this small bank branch mostly frequented by elderly people, with no serious business happening all day. Apart from seniors withdrawing pensions or checking holiday giveaways, there aren’t any big movents.
At this mont, a young girl in the waiting area on a phone call heard the conversation, and her expression changed rapidly, becoming both excited and curious. She imdiately shared with her friend on the phone, "Oh my God, I saw a handso guy in the bank who wants to transfer one million! That’s the first ti I’ve heard such a number in real life.
Really, not kidding you. Taking a photo? Are you crazy? You want dead? He also has a tall and burly bodyguard with him..."
Perhaps due to her excitent, although she consciously lowered her voice, Huang Jun, who was passing by, heard it and involuntarily twitched at the corner of his mouth.
Damn it...
What kind of perception is that?
Not recognizing as a future internet celebrity is one thing, but what’s with the bodyguard label?
Have you ever seen such a handso bodyguard?
Although he was tempted to turn around and tell her he wasn’t a bodyguard, he curbed the impulse and kept reassuring himself, "I’m the man who will beco a top fitness influencer; this is obviously just trolling, don’t get mad, don’t get mad..."
anwhile, Li Jing had reached the counter and said to the young female teller, "I want to transfer one million."
"Okay, please provide... One million?"
The bank teller involuntarily paused her routine process and raised her head for another glance at Li Jing after hearing the one million, reconfirming, "You want to transfer one million?"
"Yes."
Upon receiving Li Jing’s firm reply, the teller slightly raised her eyebrows, but the thought quickly flashed by, and she returned to work mode.
Years of dealing with money have desensitized her compared to ordinary people.
Though still curious about Li Jing’s identity, she proceeded like a machine devoid of emotions, adhering to protocols for processing transactions.
Because her years of working experience taught her that no matter how much money the clients have, she still must take the bus daily and live in rented apartnts, with hardly any change.
She and the clients are like parallel lines, seemingly close but never intersecting.
The teller took the docunts and bank card Li Jing handed over, skillfully and politely said, "Okay sir, please wait a mont."
As the teller quickly entered details into the computer system, Huang Jun standing behind had kept silent, but his emotions were more tense and excited than anyone else.
One million might be nothing to Li Jing, but it’s a whole new experience to Huang Jun.
Having never had bank savings exceeding five digits, one million could make him wake up laughing several nights in a row, even though the money was borrowed.
He even started imagining potential thieves or suspects around, cautiously observing, scanning the surroundings for suspicious figures.
Not far away, the girl who had been on a phone call put down her phone in a hurry, bent lower, and whispered with her mouth covered, "I almost got caught; I shouldn’t have done video calls; you insisted on it.
You didn’t see, that bodyguard is super professional, eyes like an eagle, clearly from a top-notch company."
Unaware of Huang Jun’s intense acting behind him, Li Jing patiently awaited the teller’s operation.
Compared to ordinary transfers, Li Jing’s transfer of one million involved noticeably more complex procedures.
It required verifying information, questioning the purpose, and giving risk alerts.
When Li Jing ntioned that his transfer target was the robust Huang Jun behind him, the female teller once more glanced at the burly Huang Jun.
Perceiving the teller’s gaze, Huang Jun inwardly relished, slightly curled his lips, instinctively stood straighter, and discreetly flexed to enlarge his muscles.
Seeing Huang Jun’s effort to tense his muscles, the bank teller was speechless, inwardly mused:
Why do these n think muscles bulging like frogs would attract won...
Don’t they know most girls would prefer n with less muscle but slender build over guys full of bulging muscles...
Huang Jun, unaware of the teller’s thoughts, saw her avoiding gaze and assud that his charm had won her over, feeling particularly satisfied inside:
Today’s another day full of charisma...
If being handso is a mistake, I’ve made it perfectly.
...
Soon after, the female teller completing the transfer breathed a slight sigh of relief, then handed the transfer receipt and bank card back to Li Jing, smiling again as she said, "Sir, your transfer is completed, please take your receipt."
"The transfer went through? How co I didn’t receive any notification?"
Before Li Jing could speak, Huang Jun, clearly more concerned about the money, couldn’t help but step forward and ask, "Are you sure there’s no mistake?"
"Sir, large transfers, even if within the sa bank, can sotis be a bit slow. Please wait a mont, and you should receive a notification soon."
"Oh, so that’s how it is."
Hearing the teller’s response, Huang Jun seed relieved, but his eyes glued to his phone indicated he wasn’t entirely convinced.
Soon after, he thought of sothing, grinned at Li Jing, and said, "Hey, bro, when the money arrives, you don’t mind if I post it on social dia, do you?"
"It’s your money now, why would I mind?"
Li Jing waved the IOU in his hand: "But I shouldn’t have to remind you of the saying ’don’t flaunt your wealth,’ don’t get scamd before you’ve even used the money."
"Relax, you think I’m dumb? Whoever dares cheat out of this money, I’ll twist their head off!"
Just as Huang Jun flexed his muscles trying to look intimidating, he heard his phone chi with a notification.
His expression changed, and he hurriedly picked up the phone, opened it, and stared at the received text ssage, forcing himself to count the digits through the excitent: "One, ten, hundred, thousand, ten thousand, hundred thousand, million..."
"I’ve actually got a million, I really have a million!"
His face flushed with excitent, if it weren’t for being in public, he would’ve scooped Li Jing up and spun around.
Then, he grinned sheepishly, imdiately took a screenshot of the ssage, erased his personal information, and posted it to his social dia, showing off.
With his love for showing off, not boasting about this would be extrely uncomfortable.
A little while later, his social dia had a new post:
"A million on hand, yet it still can’t fill that faint lancholy in my heart."
His usual pretentious showy caption was imdiately followed by the ssage screenshot with personal details erased.
Soon, there were many comnts under his post.
"Wow, Brother Bao Bing turned into Brother Sea a few days ago, now Brother Sea has beco Brother lancholy?"
"Back when Brother lancholy wanted to quit literature, I was firmly against it."
"Is Brother lancholy getting poetic again? To be honest, this generic has quite a vibe, I’ll take it."
"Everyone sit down, don’t make a scene, our Brother lancholy is about to start showing off! But a million is not enough, you gotta photoshop a couple more zeros."
Seeing his friends’ and colleagues’ teasing, Huang Jun neither explained nor minded, but waited smugly, thinking that when he becos a top fitness influencer, they’ll understand the value of this post.
Li Jing saw the comnts on Huang Jun’s post and was speechless. Thankfully, he’s not fond of posting on social dia; otherwise, he couldn’t imagine the mockery he’d face.
"President Jing, where to next?"
Huang Jun’s excitent clearly hadn’t worn off, as even his way of addressing Li Jing changed.
Li Jing glanced at him and quipped, "Weren’t you the one who called to Linshui? What was your original plan?"
"?"
Huang Jun scratched his head and chuckled, "I did have a plan, but looking at you, a big boss now, I feel the original plan wasn’t upscale enough..."
Li Jing curiously raised an eyebrow and asked, "What was the original plan?"
"Internet cafe gaming..."
"Gaming?"
The ntion of this, a term he hadn’t heard much since graduation, left Li Jing nostalgic. He then nodded, "Let’s go, I haven’t played in years. Now that you ntion it, my hands are starting to itch."
"Really?!"
Huang Jun looked thrilled and exclaid, "What I miss most are the days we gad together. Now that we have money, we should go to an e-sports venue and hire companions, we must fulfill the dreams we couldn’t afford before!"
"E-sports venue?" Li Jing asked, "Wouldn’t an e-sports hotel have better anities?"
"E-sports hotel?" Hearing this, Huang Jun smirked mischievously, "Ah, I see your intentions lie beyond gaming..."
"Don’t talk nonsense, I don’t have any such thoughts, just thinking the environnt at an e-sports hotel would be better." Li Jing was honest, judging by his current standards, he indeed wouldn’t be interested in female gaming companions.
"No such thoughts then we should definitely go to the e-sports venue!"
Huang Jun put his arm around Li Jing, and with a mysterious smile, said, "As for the reason, you’ll find out soon enough."
