"I don't believe it."

Fang Qing: “…”

"I will definitely pay it back. The IOU is still in your hands. How could I not pay it back?"

Lin Yuyao said, "I mean, I don't believe you have enough money."

ah?

Fang Qing's face changed. "What do you mean? Are you saying that I will be poor for the rest of my life?"

"I didn't say that."

Lin Yuyao said as she walked down the stairs carefully, "Some people are very poor, but they know they owe someone money, so they have to save money to pay it back even if they have to tighten their belts. Some people are obviously not poor, but they just live a life of luxury and never pay back the money.

When asked, they said they had no money, and they kept coming up with all kinds of difficulties and excuses, but they just wouldn't pay it back. Then they used moral blackmail to blackmail me, saying I was aggressive, etc..."

"Well said." Zhou Jing beside her applauded her.

"Sister, I sympathize with you that your shop was smashed. But you can't just say you are poor so you are right. I don't like to hear you say why do you have to push people so hard."

She looked at Lin Yuyao and said, "I've also heard about your story from Yuyao. That money was the dowry her parents gave her, and you cheated her out of it... Oh no, you borrowed it.

They gave you three months, which is good. If it were me, I would take it back right away. Well, since I have already borrowed it, I won't talk about it later. You are in trouble and have no money, but they are not forcing you to pay it back immediately, right?

The original three-month deadline passed last month, and they just said, "Pay back whatever you have, right? How can you say they are pushing us so hard? Is that tight?"

Fang Qing originally wanted to refute Lin Yuyao's words, but after hearing what Zhou Jing said, she blushed with embarrassment and couldn't utter a word for a long time.

Finally, he could only say, "Yuyao, I will return it as soon as possible."

After saying that, he ran away quickly.

"Bah." Zhou Jing sneered and turned to ask Lin Yuyao, "For this kind of person, you can't give her face. You can force her to pay it back. If she can't pay it back, you can force your ex-fiancé to pay it back. Didn't he guarantee the woman just now? Let him pay it back."

"They have no money, so it's useless to force them. What if the situation gets out of hand and the organization knows about Fang Qing's difficulties and applies for some kind of subsidy for her? Then wouldn't I be helping her? I can't let her take advantage of the country."

Zhou Jing was surprised, "You really think ahead."

Liu Yihuan also came down from the building and said, "If an orphan and a widow are in trouble, their superiors will definitely not ignore them. As for her, it was actually wrong to choose to look for that guy named Lu. She should have looked for the organization from the beginning."

Lin Yuyao laughed out loud.

Zhou Jing, "Why are you laughing? I think Huanhuan is right."

"Of course what Sister Liu said makes sense, but Fang Qing has never experienced any real hardship. Think about it, who would support you in opening a store just because you are pitiful?"

They both: “…”

"That's true. If you can't eat, or someone in your family is sick and you don't have the money to treat it, or it's life-threatening, people will definitely take care of it."

"Yes." Lin Yuyao said.

Zhou Jing said again, "Oh, that's not right. Didn't they say her store was smashed? If she makes a big fuss about this, and asks the organization to put pressure on the local police, they should be able to help her find the person who smashed the store, right?"

Lin Yuyao said calmly, "Yes, but it's a pity that she didn't dare to make a big fuss."

"Why?"

I didn't want to gossip about other people's affairs. After all, there is no evidence, just some rumors.

However, having said this, Lin Yuyao still spoke in a low voice.

"I heard it. First of all, I just heard it. My mother said it. I don't know if it's true or not. Just forget about it."

She kept them in suspense, and the two of them became extremely anxious.

"Hmm, tell me, what did you hear?"

"I heard that she had an affair with a man when she opened a hair salon, and her shop was smashed by the man's wife."

"Huh? Is this true?"

"I don't know. I told you that. It's just a rumor in our hometown. I don't know if it's true or not. The person who smashed the store was not caught, and there is no evidence."

"That's probably true. She didn't make a big deal out of it, maybe because she was a little cautious."

"Maybe. That's why she couldn't ask the organization for help."

"Then catch that kid named Lu and beat him up. Who said that kid named Lu owes her his life?"

Lin Yuyao sighed, "Yes." This was how Lu Jiangting's life was.

"Tsk tsk, that kid is so unlucky." Zhou Jing said.

Lin Yuyao shook her head and said, "She is willing and maybe she enjoys it."

"ah?"

"He felt that helping Fang Qing and her son would help alleviate his guilt."

Zhou Jing: “…” A strange feeling of guilt.

"I'm not saying I'm cruel. It's pitiful that her husband died. But in their line of work, many people have died, and the organization has suffered losses. Not everyone can be like her, right? If everyone is like her, clinging to a comrade, how can they live?"

Liu Yihuan said, "Didn't they say that comrade saved Mr. Lu's life? That's still different."

"How is it different? It's written in the book that if someone sacrifices himself to save a carload of people, does that mean that the people in that carload will have to work like slaves for his wife and children for the rest of their lives?"

"..."

"I think this is Lu Jiangting's fault. He feels so guilty that he wants to repay the favor and has been unconditionally meeting Fang Qing's demands, which is why Fang Qing is getting more and more demanding."

"That's right."

"Anyone who marries a man like him will be in trouble in the future. He might as well stop harming a good girl. If he wants to repay the favor so much, he should just marry Fang Qing."

Lin Yuyao smiled faintly and said nothing.

Fang Qing really thought so, but Lu Jiangting looked down on her.

Fang Qing might have seen it, so she didn't dare to break the window paper.

…

Lin Yuyao's daily routine is very simple, she only goes between the bookstore and the rental house.

She rarely goes shopping. She writes books whenever she has free time. She writes every night and during her rest time.

Although the second book was also written, Sister Qin suggested that she continue writing it first. The manuscript was approved, but she kept her pressure on the price, saying that they would discuss it later.

Because if her first book sells well, the price of the second book will be different.

The exact amount we can talk about will depend on the sales of the first book.

The first book has been mass-produced and has been gradually released to major bookstores.

Since she was a relatively unknown newcomer, the sales of her book were mediocre when it was first released.

Sister Qin said this was normal and told her not to worry.

As long as something is good and someone sees it, they will introduce it to others.

They count sales one quarter at a time, and this is just the beginning.

Lin Yuyao was very nervous and stared at the books on her bookshelf every day.

Zhou Jing and her friends also helped promote the book. Every time a copy was sold, the three of them were very happy.

However, Lin Yuyao was embarrassed to recommend her own book.
