"Fine, you win!"

Xu Tianxiang seemed to know that there was no point in continuing the stalemate, so he opened the drawer, took out a wad of money, and threw it on the table.

"That coward Qin Zheng actually sent a neighbor to ask for money! Damn it!"

He also cursed as he threw the money.

Ye Yun had just picked up the money when she heard him cursing like that, and her eyes darkened slightly.

She glanced at Xu Tianxiang indifferently, tossed the purchase receipt onto the table, took the money, and walked briskly to the door. Only then did she turn to look at Xu Tianxiang, a disdainful smile playing on her lips. "Sorry, Director Xu, I just lied to you."

Xu Tianxiang froze, staring at her speechlessly. "What?"

"I'm not Qin Zheng's neighbor." Ye Yun was worried that not explaining would cause unnecessary trouble for Tian Xiaohui, so she smiled and said, "Actually, I'm Qin Zheng's wife, and my name is Ye Yun."

"What?!"

Xu Tianxiang then realized something was wrong. By the time he stood up abruptly, Ye Yun had already left the finance department with the remaining payment, smiling.

"Damn it!"

Xu Tianxiang watched Ye Yun leave, then angrily slammed his hand on the table in front of him.

He actually let Qin Zheng's wife go!

This is actually Qin Zheng's wife. Then, who is that dark-skinned woman?

Qin Zheng, that good-for-nothing, should have married a big, burly woman, right? How could he have married such a fair-skinned and delicate woman?!

Suddenly, Xu Tianxiang remembered the crime his cousin Xu Tianqiang had committed.

Hooliganism!

Yes, only a delicate woman like this could make his cousin commit a hooligan crime!

Thinking of this, Xu Tianxiang, unwilling to give up, immediately picked up the landline next to him and made an emergency call to the gatekeeper: "Hey! That girl who came to collect the remaining payment for the mung bean cakes, don't let her leave!"

As soon as he hung up the phone, Xu Tianxiang rushed out.

Since the other party is so smart, he won't use his aunt's connections. Even without using the connections behind him, he's more than capable of dealing with a woman!

After Ye Yun left the finance office with the remaining payment, she thought about going to find Tan Zongguang.

She thought she would thank Tan Zongguang and then go back with the remaining payment. However, after asking around, she found out that Tan Zongguang had left the school temporarily due to some business.

She was also worried that Xu Tianxiang would retaliate against her, so she took the money and planned to leave immediately.

However, before she could reach the school gate, two men in their thirties suddenly ran up behind her, pointed at her, and said, "That's her!"

"Don't move!"

"Come with me to the finance office!"

Without saying a word, they rushed up and grabbed Ye Yun's shoulders from both sides, pulling her back.

"What are you doing!" Ye Yun sensed something was wrong and instinctively struggled to speak.

She was pregnant after all, and dared not struggle violently. She cried out urgently, "You can say whatever you want! I have a child in my belly!"

The two adult men holding her down were stunned, probably not expecting this.

Ye Yun quickly added, "Slow down! I know you're just doing this for someone else, but please be careful! If you hurt the baby in my womb, you won't be able to escape responsibility!"

Her words worked, and the two men holding her down immediately loosened their grip considerably.

Ye Yun breathed a sigh of relief, but the two men still held her arms. She could only say, "You can let go of me first. I won't run. I have a baby in my belly, so I can't run."

The two men looked at each other, and after some consideration, they decided to let her go.

Ye Yun first tidied her messy hair, then turned her back and hid the money in a sewn-up pocket inside her skirt. After straightening her clothes, she turned around and said, "Alright, what happened? Why don't you tell me first?"

"Director Xu from the finance department said, 'You're robbing us, come with us!'"

One of them said.

Ye Yun was taken aback. "Are you crazy? Am I robbing you? I'm here today to pay the final installment, okay?"

The man scoffed and spread his hands: "It's no use talking to us. You'd better come with us. You just said it yourself, we're just following orders!"

As he spoke, he gave a wink and signaled to another person to hold Ye Yun down.

Ye Yun quickly raised her hand to block in front of her, warning, "Don't touch me! I'm warning you, don't touch me lightly!" Seeing that the two of them seemed determined to make a move, she cooperated, saying, "I can go with you, but please don't be violent. I really am pregnant, and my pregnancy is already unstable. If something goes wrong, you don't want to cause a death, right?"

What she said makes sense.

One of them glanced at his companion and nodded, saying, "Okay, then come with us."

Ye Yun responded.

The two men guarding her were positioned one in front and one behind, as if afraid she would escape, keeping a close watch on her.

She clutched her stomach; she did feel a bit uncomfortable there.

Even if she wanted to run away, she was powerless to do so, and she couldn't abandon the child in her womb.

Besides, she has a clear conscience.

We arrived at the finance department quickly.

Ye Yun was stunned when she turned the corner and saw the scene before her.

There were many more people at the entrance of the finance department. Not only was Xu Tianxiang there, but also the few people she had seen at the beginning, and several old men who looked to be in high positions of power.

Xu Tianxiang was pulling a tall, thin old man along when he saw her. He immediately pointed at her excitedly and shouted, "Principal, look! It's her! She told me she was here to settle the balance for the mung bean cakes and even showed me the receipt! But as soon as I took out the money, she snatched it and ran away without even giving me our receipt. It's her!"

ah?

Ye Yun was slightly taken aback.

The man known as the principal immediately fixed his authoritative gaze on her.

The tall, thin old man, exuding an air of authority, scrutinized Ye Yun with a serious gaze, and questioned her in a deep voice, "Comrade Ye, is that right? Our Finance Director Xu said that you took the final payment for the mung bean cakes but didn't return the receipt to us. Is that true?"

"Principal, she didn't refuse to pay; she never intended to pay. She's robbing us!"

Xu Tianxiang said excitedly.

Ye Yunxin frowned as she looked at Xu Tianxiang, who was visibly agitated, and finally understood.

She had already taken the money and left the finance office, and everything would have been fine. Unexpectedly, Xu Tianxiang dealt her a heavy blow from behind at this moment!

Having no proof of payment is a concept.

Robbing money is a different concept altogether.

If she's not careful, she could end up in jail with Xu Tianqiang!

Xu Tianxiang's goal was clear: to help his cousin Xu Tianqiang take revenge and send Qin Zheng's wife to prison as well!

Unfortunately, in this day and age, she has no camera to prove her innocence.

Without a second's hesitation, Ye Yun looked at the principal and asked without thinking, "Are you the principal?"
