Chapter 32 Balance



She wore nearly a million yuan worth of jewelry, but had very little money in her WeChat account...

She was only eighteen or nineteen when she met Zhou Yi. She hadn't had time to open a bank account and didn't have much money. After they met, she needed even less.

Zhou Yi paid for all the expenses.

All the luxury goods were paid for with black cards.

She could produce countless designer clothes, bags, and jewelry, but she couldn't produce any savings because she felt it was unnecessary; the entire Zhou family belonged to her.

She relied on the black card and on Zhou Yi to the point that it had become a habit.

For the past three or four years, Zhou Yi has been able to buy her all sorts of flowers, but he has never transferred cash to her. She doesn't know why, and she's too lazy to know. As long as he spoils her and loves her, that's enough.

In addition, she spent some of her WeChat balance on renting a luxury car these past two days. She doesn't save money to begin with, so where would she get the money to pay for the shipping?

Reluctantly, she took off her six-figure watch and said humiliatingly, "This watch is a Cartier. I'll leave it here as collateral and come back with the money to redeem it tomorrow."

Seeing this, the manager became even more suspicious of her identity and refused her without even glancing at her: "I'm sorry, I only accept cash flow, not collateral."

"After all, this money isn't for me; it's for the transportation staff at head office."

The police officer mediated impartially: "He didn't ask for a price, but he did need to compensate for some losses incurred in transferring the car from the main store."

"With so many of you classmates, let's chip in and pay the money together."

"It's getting late, so let's not take up any more of everyone's time."

The classmate who wanted to broaden his horizons by following Su Qingjiao never expected to encounter such a thing, being blocked in the store and unable to leave because of 10,000 yuan.

Their faces were all looking increasingly grim.

A boy hesitated for a moment, then took out his phone and showed Su Qingjiao the change page: "Well... I have a little over a thousand yuan on me, this is my living expenses for next week."

"I can lend it to you first."

Seeing that someone had stepped forward, the other students had no choice but to step forward as well. They pooled their money together and gave 10,000 yuan to the manager.

The police officer shook his head, looked at Su Qingjiao who was hanging her head and not saying a word, and immediately understood what had happened: "Consider this a lesson learned."

"In the future, act within your means and don't cause trouble like this."

As the group walked out of the luxury car dealership, they were given a lecture by the police officers.

After the police officers left, no one was ashamed to stand in front of the luxury car dealership, so they all slunk away to the next intersection to hail a taxi.

Su Qingjiao was about to hail a taxi when she looked down and realized her phone was switched off.

She hurriedly stopped a classmate and asked, her face pale, "My phone is off. Could you... lend me some cash for the bus, or help me call a taxi?"

"I will definitely pay you back tomorrow."

"Or I'll leave my watch with you as collateral."

The classmate, looking troubled, took out his phone to show Su Qingjiao the balance in his account: "Miss, when I was collecting money earlier, I collected three thousand, and now I only have less than one hundred yuan left."

"I'm really sorry, I'll probably run out of money for taxis later."

Honestly.

If it weren't for Su Qingjiao's behavior in class, he would have suspected that Su Qingjiao was a fake socialite, otherwise how come she didn't have 10,000 yuan in cash?

Is there no other money besides the black card?

But then I thought about it again.

It seems there are indeed quite a few wealthy young ladies online who use credit cards. Their families don't give them cash, and credit cards are better at controlling their spending. The young ladies can just swipe their cards, and their parents can pay them back.

Thinking this, the classmate's expression improved a little.

Su Qingjiao forced a smile and explained, "Oh, I see. Then I'll go charge my phone later."

"What happened today was really unexpected. I don't know what happened. They suddenly stopped my card. I'll just go home and apologize. My family won't be so heartless as to actually freeze my card."

"You guys go ahead, I'll call the driver later and have him come pick me up."

Su Qingjiao watched as her classmates left one by one in taxis. As dusk fell, the streetlights on both sides suddenly lit up.

Su Qingjiao stood at the door for ten minutes, still unwilling to go into the store to borrow a charger.

The manager's disdainful gaze was deeply imprinted in her pupils, feeling as if she had been slapped hard across the face, making her feel inexplicably humiliated!

She had no cash and didn't want to go back to the store to borrow a charger. Over the years, Zhou Yi had spoiled her so much that she had lost the ability to take care of herself. Being 'high and mighty,' she didn't know that she could pay for a taxi at home.

She didn't know this before meeting Zhou Yi, because she couldn't bear to leave and had never taken a taxi before.

She didn't know after meeting Zhou Yi because she had no chance; she was always picked up and dropped off in luxury cars, which she found distasteful.

She gritted her teeth and walked home.

Su Qingjiao was exhausted and hungry. It took her two or three hours to walk back to the villa.

As soon as she entered the villa, she saw her mother kneeling on the ground like a maid, wiping the floor. One of her legs was bent over due to a disability, and she looked like she was in great pain while working.

And what about Zhou Yi?

He was lying leisurely on the sofa.

Seeing this, Su Qingjiao's pent-up anger from the past two or three hours exploded instantly. She could no longer pretend to be weak and pitiful in front of Zhou Yi, and raised her voice to accuse him: "Zhou Yi!!!"

"You actually made my mom kneel on the floor to clean it for you! You've gone too far!"

"I misjudged you, I really misjudged you! Why did you freeze the black card? Do you know how much face you've made me lose today!"
