Lu Ziqun nodded vigorously, "That's good, I'd feel bad if I didn't ask for interest."

Ye Qingqing didn't care, but this method was not bad. It would ease Lu Ziqun's burden. She didn't want to do anyone a favor; it was purely to put Sun Yurong down.

"Then it's settled. Call me when you've found a place you like."

Lu Ziqun nodded happily, her complexion much better. She was finally able to own her own house, and she was no longer a drifting passerby.

"It may take me many years to pay off my debts, but I will pay them off as soon as possible," Lu Ziqun said hesitantly.

Ye Qingqing laughed, "I don't need this money for food. You can pay me back when you have the money. Don't be so frugal."

She finally understood why Lü Ziqun dressed so plainly, even shabbily, and why she didn't look well; she guessed she was being too hard on herself to save money.

This also shows that Yu Shaoning's family doesn't care much about Lü Ziqun. Otherwise, Lü Ziqun wouldn't be so obsessed with buying a house, nor would she feel that she is still a passerby and not the master of Pingjiang.

Because the Yu family couldn't give Lü Ziqun a sense of belonging, nor could it put her at ease.

Sun Yurong looked unwell and was angry. She only wanted to mock Lü Ziqun, but the woman gained a huge benefit and got a big house. The old woman got off easy.

Originally, she didn't have such a big problem with Lü Ziqun, but after meeting Yu Shaoning tonight, Sun Yurong's initial shock and embarrassment slowly turned into resentment.

Why should Lu Ziqun, an old and ugly woman, be able to have such a good man as Yu Shaoning?

Yu Shaoning is hers. Lü Ziqun is no match for her in any way. What right does she have to possess Yu Shaoning? She will take this man away from her. She will be Mrs. Yu from now on. Lü Ziqun can go cool off somewhere else.

Out of consideration for their old classmate relationship, she would ask Yu Shaoning to give her a larger settlement during the divorce, and have Lü Ziqun buy some nice clothes so she wouldn't always dress like a beggar. Humph, she's supposed to be a university cadre, but she's more like an old lady than a neighborhood committee auntie. No wonder Yu Shaoning said he only goes once a month. What man could bring himself to sleep with such an old hag? It's really unfair to Yu Shaoning.

Sun Yurong grew increasingly resentful and dissatisfied with Lü Ziqun, and this resentment extended to her other female classmates, who felt that they were all jealous of her because she was now rich, owned a house, and was young and beautiful.

"Ziqun, do you and your husband have a bad relationship? Your husband's family already has three houses, why do you want to buy more and save so much money on the side?"

Sun Yurong raised her voice slightly, speaking in a strange tone with a mocking sarcasm, while her eyes kept glancing at Yu Shaoning.

The male classmates who were drinking and chatting enthusiastically also heard this and stopped, looking towards the female classmates. Yu Shaoning frowned slightly, very dissatisfied with Lü Ziqun. He really couldn't understand Lü Ziqun's obsession with buying a house. It's not like the family doesn't have houses. Three houses are enough for them to live in. Why do they still want to buy another one? They live a very frugal life. They can't even bear to throw away their underwear with holes. It makes him lose all interest.

Lu Ziqun also realized Sun Yurong's attempt to sow discord. It was so obvious that even a fool could tell. Her expression changed, and she smiled slightly, "Who would complain about having too many houses? Yurong, don't you have several houses? I can't compare to you. I can't afford a villa, but buying a small one is good too. It's a kind of investment, and it's better than earning interest from the bank."
