Chapter 18

man all turned their heads, looking at me suspiciously."Cough!" An Institute researcher came to my rescue: "The thing is here with me. You see, my memory isn't so good. I used it this morning and forg..."Xiang Yunfeng!"

"How are you here!" A familiar voice suddenly came from behind me. I turned around and saw Li Jing and one of her female classmates.

"Looking at the thick wad of cash in my hand, Li Jing said in surprise, 'Xiang Yunfeng, you're so rich... What business is your family in' After Li Jing finished speaking, her female classmate also curiously sized me up."

"I... I..." I stuttered, my face flushed crimson. I was at a loss for words. I hadn't expected to run into Li Jing here.

I waved my hand and lied, "It's nothing, my parents just do some clothing business. Hehehe."

Oh, is that so

"

Li Jing ran out of the hardware store. She looked around and beckoned to me, "Xiang Yunfeng, come out here. I have something to tell you."

"What's wrong, Li Jing" she pulled me into the corner.

To my surprise, Li Jing suddenly grabbed my hand.

The girl looked up at me with tearful eyes and said, "Xiang Yunfeng, I know your family is rich. You... can you lend me 50,000 yuan..." Her voice trailed off towards the end.

Before I could speak, Li Jing bit her lip and said, "As long as you lend me the money, I'll... I'll be yours..."

"Huh" I felt like I had been struck by lightning at that moment.

She suddenly hugged me tightly and cried, "Please help me! The debt collectors came back last night. They beat my mother and said if I don't pay them back, they'll throw her into the river."

This is my first time holding a girl, but I didn't expect it to be like this.

Li Jing cried harder and harder, she was truly scared. After all, at that time, she was still a girl under eighteen.

She saw that I could take out a thousand dollars at will, and thought our family was in big business.

Seeing that I remained silent, Li Jing gritted her teeth and said: "If you're not willing to help me, then I'll sell myself. I'll become a prostitute! I'll sleep with old men!"

I was startled and quickly said to her, "Don't do that! I'll help you."

"

When she saw I was willing to help, Li Jing stopped crying. She held my hand and said, “Then... then when will you give me fifty thousand…”

"Can you wait a week" I thought, "I'll start by going into debt and then ask Second Brother for money after I find him."

Li Jing immediately said in a hurried voice, "No! Those people only gave our family three days! It's already been two days now! I have to use it tonight."

""

Goodbye, Li Jing. I walked back with the things I bought, my heart heavy. I didn't know how to tell her about this.

Because I don't have money, and I certainly don't have fifty thousand.

But Lily and her mother saved me.

"Yun Feng, you're back! Did you buy everything" He asked me after returning and tilting his head.

"Well, I'm done," she nodded and placed the bag on the table.

He sat with his head in his hands, blowing heavily on his cup of tea.

I hesitated several times, unable to speak.t and found a thin plastic bag on the ground. The bag had a trademark, the kind used for instant bread on supermarket shelves.Without turning back, I frowned and said, “Be careful, Hong Jie. There mig...
