Although Cui Zhiqiang's complexion before could not be considered rosy, it would not be like it is now, with dark circles under his eyes, drooping eyelids, bloodshot eyes, and his whole face looking a little droopy.

Cui Zhiqiang used to be full of vigor and vitality, but now he is decadent and even nervous and uneasy from time to time, like a frightened bird, always feeling uneasy.

As soon as Xu Xiangbei approached and before he could speak, Cui Zhiqiang grabbed his arm and said, "Abei, Abei, do you have any money? Do you have any money to lend me..."

Xu Xiangbei's arm was a little painful from being grabbed by him. After breaking free, he said, "What's wrong with you? Why do you want money? I remember that you should not be short of money."

Cui Zhiqiang was silent.

If that incident had not happened yet, he would definitely not be short of money.

But now, he has no money at all, and he is in huge debt.

Those people said that if he didn't pay it back, they would cut off his hands and feet, and then he would die.

Last time, in order to marry Zhang Xiaoyan, he used those watches to set a trap for Xu Xiangbei and then report him, so as to get the job requested by Zhang Xiaoyan's parents.

Xu Xiangbei had clearly agreed before, but that night, when the time came, he actually backed down and left.

Cui Zhiqiang had no choice but to trade the watch by himself, but he unexpectedly met the police.

If that damn policeman hadn't been chasing him, he wouldn't have thought of hiding the watch.

But when he went to look for it again, the watch had mysteriously disappeared.

Cui Zhiqiang couldn't understand why someone would pass by there at such a late hour and in such a dark sky, and at that time, and why he would know about his secret base and even take away all his watches.

All those watches. He owed a lot of money for them, and they were worth thousands of dollars.

He originally thought that since Xu Xiangbei would not be fooled, he would sell the watch himself and use the proceeds to make up for the shortfall. He would then be able to earn a large sum of money and use it to buy a job. Although the price would be very high, it would not be as good as getting it for free.

But, unfortunately, the watch just disappeared.

No matter how hard he looked, he couldn't find any trace.

What should he do with the money he owed? Those people were extremely vicious and if he didn't pay it back, his life would be difficult.

Those people will definitely not let him go.

And the facts were just as he expected.

He stayed at home anxiously for two days, and on the third day, the group of people showed up.

And his nightmare began...

In order to make him pay back the money, those people not only beat him, but also humiliated and threatened him in various ways.

There was even one time when they held him and pushed his head into the water.

Cui Zhiqiang is still scared when he thinks about the feeling of suffocation and dying. At that time, he really felt that he was about to die.

It is precisely because he has experienced the feeling of death that he is so afraid of death.

Those people said that if he didn't pay it back, they would chop off his hands next time, his legs the next time, and the next time...

The next time, death will be waiting for him.

Not only will he die, but his parents and younger brothers and sisters will also be implicated.

But Cui Zhiqiang has no money.

So he can only borrow money!

The first person he thought of was Zhang Xiaoyan.

Another reason is that Zhang Xiaoyan's parents are city dwellers, and she herself is also a city dweller. She also has her own job and receives a salary every month. Both Zhang Xiaoyan and the Zhang family are definitely rich.

So, he borrowed from Zhang Xiaoyan.

He didn't dare to ask Zhang Xiaoyan to borrow several thousand yuan all at once. He didn't know whether the Zhang family had several thousand yuan, but Zhang Xiaoyan definitely couldn't come up with it all at once.

He was also afraid of scaring Zhang Xiaoyan, fearing that Zhang Xiaoyan would back off after hearing such a large amount.

So, he said several thousand as several hundred, which is 500.

Get 500 yuan first, and then come up with the rest later.

Pay back part of it first, at least his hands and feet can be saved.

Although it was said to be 500, Zhang Xiaoyan was shocked when she heard this amount, and Zhang Xiaoyan also said that she did not have that much money.

However, Zhang Xiaoyan was indeed trapped in the true love network woven by Cui Zhiqiang. She gave all the salary she had saved over the years, more than 200 yuan, to Cui Zhiqiang.

Zhang Xiaoyan's monthly salary was 21 yuan, part of which she gave to the family for expenses, and the other part her parents asked her to save for her dowry in the future.

Now, Zhang Xiaoyan devotes all her energy to Cui Zhiqiang and gives him all her savings.

But it's still not enough.

Cui Zhiqiang continued to ask Zhang Xiaoyan for more.

But Zhang Xiaoyan is no longer there and cannot be taken out.

"Xiaoyan, you don't have any, but your uncle and aunt should have some. Can you, can you help me borrow some?" Cui Zhiqiang asked tentatively.

"No, my parents will definitely not agree." Zhang Xiaoyan said without thinking.

Originally, my parents were not very supportive of my relationship with Brother Zhiqiang.

Not to mention that Brother Zhiqiang asked her to borrow money from her parents and she couldn't borrow it, even if she gave all her savings to Brother Zhiqiang, if her parents knew about it, then her relationship with Brother Zhiqiang would be completely over, not to mention getting married later.

"Xiaoyan, Xiaoyan, please, you have to help me, I really have no other choice. If I don't pay you back a lot of money, you may never see me again." Cui Zhiqiang grabbed Zhang Xiaoyan's hand and cried, begging bitterly.

In Zhang Xiaoyan's heart, Cui Zhiqiang has always been the tall and strong man who saved her from danger.

She never expected that Cui Zhiqiang would be so desperate and beg her for mercy.

Zhang Xiaoyan was stunned for a long time before she reacted.

He had to go. Cui Zhiqiang's behavior had somewhat shattered his original filter for Cui Zhiqiang.

The love that I had originally felt in my heart because of the sense of security that Cui Zhiqiang brought me due to his strength has also diminished a lot.

But in her heart, she still loves Cui Zhiqiang.

She still hopes to continue to be with Cui Zhiqiang and get married.

So, Zhang Xiaoyan finally gritted her teeth and said, "Okay, I'll give it a try, but I don't know if it will work."

"I know, I know. Xiaoyan, I still need 500 yuan. Please ask your uncle and aunt to lend me another 500 yuan. Thank you, Xiaoyan. Don't worry, I will treat you well in the future."

"Xiaoyan, if I don't treat you well in the future, I'm not a human being. I hope I won't die well. I swear, I will treat you well and never leave you for the rest of my life."

Zhang Xiaoyan, who was not very determined at first, was instantly moved and became determined after hearing his words and looking at his sincere eyes with tears in them.
