Who wants to hear what she's saying? They just want to see what the product is trying to convey and what's inside the billboard.

"But we should film something deeper, something that will leave a lasting impression and be easily remembered."

"I'm sorry, this job may not be suitable for you. Thank you for the interview. Next."

Xu Qi walked out of the advertising company, feeling very frustrated.

It's been so long, why hasn't she found a job yet?

Is she really that bad?

She tried to call her friend, but couldn't get through. At that moment, she felt particularly upset.

Just then, her phone rang. It was an unfamiliar number, and she answered it with some hesitation.

"Hello, this is the phone number for the XX Public Security Bureau. Please come over here."

Xu Qi: "???"

Xu Qi thought it was a scam call and hung up without hesitation.

Then, the phone rang again, and she learned that she needed to come in to give a statement. It turned out that Yang Qimu... had been accused of being coerced.

Xu Qi: "???"

Xu Qi went to the police station in a daze to give her statement. She didn't even know how she got out of the police station.

What does it mean that Yang Qimu forced himself on another girl?

This represents his betrayal...

How ridiculous!

She was willing to give up everything for him, thinking he was her light, but she never expected that he would cause her even more pain.

When did he...?

Xu Qi's voice choked with emotion at that moment; she wanted to know when it was.

"This morning..."

Xu Qi couldn't hear the rest, and she turned and left.

She returned to the house and saw the same people from before.

Those people were waiting at the door, and they looked like they had no good intentions; I wondered what they wanted.

What are you doing at my house?

Those people looked at her and burst into laughter. "Of course, you should ask your husband, Yang Qimu, for the money. Didn't he tell you that he borrowed money from us to marry you, saying he would pay us back in three months? Now that time is almost up, so give him the money."

If you can't produce it, then we won't be so polite.

Their patience has its limits; they can't wait indefinitely if they still can't come up with the money.

"Impossible! Was that even a wedding? It wasn't a wedding at all. How could it have cost so much money?"

Xu Qi was furious just thinking about that so-called wedding.

"That has nothing to do with us. We have an IOU here. You have to give it to us whether you want to or not."

Looking at their fierce and menacing appearance, Xu Qi was a little scared, but now she told herself, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid!"

"I didn't, and I don't know anything about borrowing money. It has nothing to do with me. I don't have any money to give you."

They watched her walk towards them, step by step…

"Don't come any closer! If you get any closer, I'm going to call the police."

They then passed right past Xu Qi, who was terrified and quickly went back to lock the door.

The moment she locked the door, she burst into tears, crying very loudly.

She didn't know why things had turned out this way, and she was so scared, so very scared.

She fell asleep on the ground, after an unknown amount of time had passed.

On the other side...

Yang Qimu couldn't understand why the fans would call the police.

Didn't she like him? How did it turn into coercion?

Moreover, he didn't even know there was a surveillance camera in her house. If a girl says no, doesn't that mean she wants it?

He didn't know why he had become a criminal, and one he couldn't deny.

He really...

I really don't know what to say.

"Really, I didn't force her. She said she liked me and that as long as I have a place for her in my heart, that's enough."

I really...

I really didn't force her.

The police wouldn't tell him any of that. It was clearly seen in the video that the girl resisted fiercely, but he remained unmoved and eventually forced himself on her.

...

The sun rises, sets, and rises again.

Xu Qi had no idea how the past few days had passed. He couldn't see Yang Qimu, and Yang Qimu didn't have a lawyer. In addition, the case was quite clear: he had been detained and would go directly through the legal process until the trial and sentencing, which would be a long process.

Xu Qi was depressed for a few days and was very weak, but she eventually got up, cooked herself a meal, and then tried to find a job.

When she opened the door, she saw the girl, the one who had called the police.

What are you doing here?

Xu Qi didn't understand what this girl was here for.

"They've come to ask for money."

Xu Qi: "???"

"What did you say? I don't even know you, why are you asking me for money?"

Xu Qi found it outrageous; why were they all asking her for money?

“You are husband and wife, and you are jointly liable for your debts. Of course you have to repay them, otherwise I will sue you.”

He cheated me out of my money and forced himself on me. As his wife, you naturally have to pay him back.

Xu Qi: "..."

Xu Qi felt that this world was really ridiculous. She didn't want to live like this anymore; she was finding it hard to go on living her own life.

In the past two months, she has learned so much: how to cook, how to do laundry and housework, how to be frugal, and now she even has to help Yang Qimu pay off his debts.

Xu Qi didn't dare to think about whether she regretted it or not, afraid that once she started thinking about it, she would never be able to stop.
