They were speaking loudly, and all the female educated youth gathered at the door to watch.

At this point, even if Jiang Aiguo wanted to run, he couldn't escape.

"Borrowing money from each other?" Guo Tianya keenly seized on his words. "Excuse me, Jiang Zhiqing, when did I borrow money from you?"

"I mean, help each other, help each other!" Jiang Aiguo's face turned as red as a monkey's bottom, and he pleaded with Guo Tianya with his eyes.

However, Guo Tianya interpreted this as Jiang Aiguo asking her to save face for him.

Why save face? Naturally, it's because this is in front of Su Qiaoqiao.

Although Su Qiaoqiao was a bit difficult, in terms of appearance, after Su Ruyi moved out, she was undoubtedly the most beautiful female educated youth in the educated youth compound.

Especially now that the two are standing together, even though Su Qiaoqiao's face is covered in bloodstains, it still can't hide her fair and petite figure, making Guo Tianya look even bigger and more robust. Standing next to her, she looks like her rough maid.

Thinking of this, Guo Tianya raised her voice in anger:

"Jiang Aiguo!"

Don't even think about brushing this off!

You must give me an explanation today!

Otherwise, I'll go to the county's educated youth office first thing tomorrow morning!

I have a question: a male educated youth, under the guise of dating me, borrowed a total of 981 yuan from me over a year!

Now he's telling me he didn't date me!

How should the educated youth office handle this kind of situation?

The female educated youth watching instantly erupted in uproar:

"...How much? How much did she just say?"

"Nine hundred! She said nine hundred and eighty-one!"

"My goodness! Is Guo Tianya that rich? I've never seen her eat, dress, or use things much better than others."

"That's because she lent all her money to Jiang Aiguo!"

...

Guo Tianya's voice choked with emotion as she finished speaking:

"I've told my parents countless lies this past year in order to lend you money!"

My parents are still wondering why I get a minor illness every three days and a major illness every five days after I went to the countryside!

He also developed a clumsy and impulsive nature, and every month he would break one or two of other people's valuable items!

"For you, I've even abandoned the image I have in my parents' eyes!"

"Tianya, I'm sorry!" Jiang Aiguo readily admitted defeat. "I admit that you've helped me a lot this past year, a lot, and I've remembered it all! I'll repay you in the future!"

"I don't need your repayment, I need you to pay me back!" Guo Tianya said, looking at Su Qiaoqiao, "Do you have paper and a pen?"

Jiang Aiguo stood there, feeling as if the blood in his body was about to freeze.

He initially wrote IOUs for the money he borrowed from Guo Tianya, but later, as their relationship progressed, he stopped writing IOUs.

He really didn't know what was wrong with Guo Tianya. She could usually be coaxed with a few sweet words!

He glanced again at Su Qiaoqiao, who had hurriedly grabbed paper and pen and looked on with amusement.

Jiang Aiguo finally decided that he should consider his future and decisively give up on Guo Tianya.

So he deftly took the pen and paper from Su Qiaoqiao and said to Guo Tianya, "When I borrow money, I always write an IOU. It's not like you just say how much you borrowed and that's it! What do you want me to write?"

Guo Tianya stared at him for a full minute, then suddenly laughed.

Then, she pulled out more than a dozen slips of paper from her pocket:

"Jiang Aiguo, you can't get away with this."

You probably sent most of the money you lent me back home, right?

The remittance slip can be verified!

The money my parents transferred to me can be checked, and the money you transferred to your family can also be checked!

Are you determined to make this so serious that I call the police?

Jiang Aiguo's face turned ashen.

He couldn't understand what serious illness had struck Guo Tianya, who was usually so easy to manipulate, today.

He said irritably, "I know, it's because I don't have any money that you look down on me, right? I already said I'll repay you in the future, what more do you want from me?"

"We've been dating for over half a year, and now you've set your sights on Su Qiaoqiao, who comes from a wealthy and powerful family, and you're going to dump me? Do you think I'm still going to be foolish enough to believe in your future repayment? Hah!" Guo Tianya said harshly, but tears were already streaming down her face.

"When did I start dating you? We're just friends!" Jiang Aiguo said awkwardly, glancing at Su Qiaoqiao as he spoke.

"Jiang Aiguo, this is your last chance. Think it over! I'll only ask you one last time—are you going to pay me back or not?" Guo Tianya seemed to be losing patience.

"Even if I wanted to pay it back, I don't have the money right now!" Jiang Aiguo's fig leaf was finally torn off completely. He slumped to the ground in despair, his voice lowered, "Tianya, are you trying to force me to my death?!"

"I didn't ask you to pay me back right away, I just asked you to write me an IOU! Write a date for repayment on it, is that too much to ask?" There was an indescribable determination in Guo Tianya's eyes.

"How many IOUs do you have? How much is it in total? I remember I only borrowed a hundred or two from you." Jiang Aiguo stood up, his eyes darting around before his gaze settled on the IOUs in Guo Tianya's hand.

He estimated that he had written an IOU for over three hundred yuan.

Once he and Su Qiaoqiao get together, it shouldn't be too difficult for him to persuade Su Qiaoqiao to pay back the money.

But more than nine hundred? No way. He can't take on that much debt for his Su Qiaoqiao. They still have to make a living!

Besides, his mother's illness is inseparable from money, and he has to plan how to spend Su Qiaoqiao's money.

"Jiang Aiguo, you're finished." Guo Tianya smiled at him, a smile that was extremely chilling.

"No, what do you mean?" Jiang Aiguo was a little frightened by the smile.

"Can anyone help me report this to the police? Jiang Aiguo raped me, and I'm pregnant." Guo Tianya finally dropped this bombshell.

"..." For a moment, Jiang Aiguo's eardrums seemed to explode. After a brief period of extreme noise, there was a deathly silence.

The gazes of the female educated youth were like daggers piercing him.

He looked at Guo Tianya, who was smiling silently at him, opened his mouth but couldn't say a word.

Guo Tianya just smiled and looked at him.

Countless nights, by the haystacks, in the woods, she had that same look in her eyes. Back then, he thought it was tender and affectionate, but now it sent chills down his spine.

He glanced at Su Qiaoqiao again.

Su Qiaoqiao looked at him with disgust, as if he were the dirtiest and most disgusting thing in the world.

It’s over!

He's really finished!

But he couldn't accept his fate!

As long as there is a glimmer of hope, he will fight for it!

After a long pause, he made up his mind, pretending to look up with great difficulty, and said to Guo Tianya:

"Guo, the educated youth!"

I did not rape you!

You seduced me by taking off your clothes!

You're not even a virgin!

Moreover, when you came here, your relationship with Hu Zhenbo was ambiguous!

Who knows whose child is in your belly?

silence.

A deathly silence.

The small front yard had never been so quiet; even the sound of the wind rustling the leaves had disappeared.
