Celebrity Girl Is My Wife

To end the awkwardness, Ning Ran walked to a shelf in the supermarket and picked up a few packets of snacks. She then walked to the counter and gestured for Ruan Anxi to pay for them.

Ruan Anxi froze for a moment before reaching out for his pocket. After taking out a crumpled banknote, he handed it to the cashier and asked, “Is this enough?”

Ning Ran and the cashier glanced at that one-hundred banknote before giving Ruan Anxi a bizarre look.

The two ladies were surprised that Ruan Anxi was still using cash, even though most people had gone cashless. They were even more dumbfounded when they saw how crumpled the banknote was. I bet anyone who saw that might think of him as a beggar. How embarrassing.

Upon noticing the expression on their faces, Ruan Anxi quickly explained, “The banknote might seem old, but it's real! I don't use counterfeit money!”

The cashier accepted the banknote. “I know it's real, but I don't have small change. We don't use cash here these days.”

Ning Ran stepped in and apologized to the cashier, “Sorry, I think we should just go.”

She then dragged Ruan Anxi out of the supermarket.

“Hey, the banknote is real money!” Ruan Anxi was still trying to defend himself.

“I know, but don't you have an e-wallet? Why do you still use cash? And why do you always say I'm mischievous? Even if I am, who are you to judge me? Can you not speak to me in that tone? It's so weird and awkward. Have you forgotten you're my kidnapper?” Ning Ran roared at Ruan Anxi because he was getting on her nerves.

“I don't use an e-wallet because it will expose my personal information. The technology is so advanced that anyone can easily track my whereabouts and financial situation. People like me can never use an e-wallet,” Ruan Anxi explained.

Ning Ran thought what he said made sense. That's why characters in drama will always fill a suitcase with cash when carrying out an illegal transaction.

“Do you always put your cash in suitcases, hide them beneath the bed, and take them out when you need them?” Ning Ran could not help but ask curiously.

“Nope. We'll invest the money in projects and turn them into lawful sources of income. For instance, we can pump money into film projects, start an online business to sell virtual goods or trade cryptocurrencies. Once the money goes through those proper channels, we can then put them in the bank.” Surprisingly, Ruan Anxi took time to explain patiently to Ning Ran.

Everything he said was supposed to be a secret, yet he bared it all out.
