Ring! Ring! Ring!
Xue Lin could hardly open her eyes. She reached out her right hand and tried to look for her enemy (mobile phone) who just destroyed her beauty sleep.
When one’s heart, mind, and body are tired, sleeping is the best redy.
However, so trash just took it away from her. She beca irritated. She was mad at herself for not turning off her cell phone before sleeping. But she didn’t give anyone her number. After creating havoc on the bed for a while, she found out her cell phone.
"Hello?" Her voice was hoarse to the point that she couldn’t recognize her voice. Last night, she cried and she just woke up, it changed her voice.
"...Miss...Lin?" The voice was confused.
"I am. And who am I talking to?" her brain was functioning properly.
The person seed apologetic. "You must be sleeping, I’m so sorry, Miss Lin. I’m the Manager of the bank. I called you for sothing urgent."
Xue Lin yawned. "Oh, it’s you. Good morning. Urgent is it? What happened?"
The Manager said, "Good morning, Miss Lin, I got a call from the higher-up and he said that your credit card procession has been canceled."
Xue Lin’s eyes flew open. Her sleep was gone in a blink. She sat up straight and asked, "What did you just say?"
He replied, "He didn’t tell the details but soone ordered the bank to cancel your credit card procession. Miss Lin, have you offended anyone recently?" He was feeling bad for this little miss.
"I don’t know...I’ll co by later..." Xue Lin hung up. Her mind was blank. ’What just happened?’
It’s certainly not a good morning.
Xue Lin realized that her mind was in a ss. She stood up and went to the washroom. She freshened up while thinking about the situation.
’Soone I offended...’ Xue Lin recalled last night. ’I can’t say soone... I offended a bunch of people.’ She narrowed her eyes. ’My parents don’t know that I applied for another credit card. But my scheming mother can think about it. Still, they cannot cancel the procession. They do have enough money to stop it but they don’t have that much power. If it’s money and power then that family from yesterday. They seed to have enough money and power. What was the na of the family again?’
Xue Lin tried to rember the na of the family but she didn’t give much attention last night to morize it. She sighed.
’With power and connection, they can easily find out my moves and stop from going abroad... wait, if they know about my credit card and knowing about my passport won’t be that hard.’
Xue Lin’s hand stopped brushing her teeth. She looked at herself through the mirror. She gazed at her face blankly before hurriedly washed her face and then changed into a t-shirt, pants, and a pair of sneakers; and then, she got out of the room.
She directly went to the passport office and asked the sa officer. The officer recognized her since he just saw her yesterday. He said, "Oh Miss Lin, I didn’t think you would co today as well."
Xue Lin didn’t go with formalities and directly asked, "Has my passport processing been canceled?"
The officer blinked. "Huh? What do you an? Why will that happen?" He had no clue whatever she was talking about.
"Please check." Xue Lin’s tone was full of urgency.
"Please wait a mont." The officer politely said. He checked sothing on the computer and then frowned. "Miss Lin, I don’t know from where or what you heard but you are correct. Your passport processing was canceled yesterday. It’s strange though. Let check to the main office." He dialed so numbers and talked to soone over the telephone.
After he was done talking, he looked at Xue Lin and said, "I’m very sorry, Miss Lin. But it’s an order from the higher-ups. There’s nothing I can do."
Xue Lin forgot to breathe. Finally, she nodded and bowed. "Thank you for helping ." After that, she left.
She road around the street. She didn’t know how long she walked. She dragged her feet to the bank of the Yellow River. She sat on the grass field and looked blankly at the river.
’Now what? What should I do?’ Xue Lin couldn’t think of a way out of this.
