Lin Yutong slammed her phone down on the table. She took a deep breath and told herself it couldn't be, it couldn't be like this. She had indeed added the account according to the one given to her by classmate Jiang Jianian.
impossible.
It shouldn't be.
The other party did not reply to the message.
Lin Yutong comforted herself that he was busy and hadn't seen her message yet, and that he would definitely reply when he did. However, she waited anxiously until the evening, the next day, and even the third day, before she finally realized that something was wrong.
Lin Yutong is going crazy.
She scraped together 300,000 yuan, believing the other party would definitely repay it. Tens of thousands of yuan of it came from her part-time job as a host, which she had earned over a long period because of her good looks. The rest of the money was either borrowed from male friends or small loans. She downloaded several apps and borrowed 300,000 yuan. She had already planned how to discuss with the other party and ask him to repay the money slowly. She was robbing Peter to pay Paul to repay the loans.
And then... this actually happened.
Impossible, absolutely impossible.
Lin Yutong was instantly plunged into despair. The more she thought about it, the more loopholes she found. She even realized how irrational she had been when she came to her senses. But in her despair, Lin Yutong's first reaction was not to call the police, but to go find Jiang Jianian.
She wanted to confront Jiang Jianian in person, so Lin Yutong immediately went to the classroom to wait for him based on the previous classes Jiang Jianian had attended. She waited until the end of get out of class, but did not see Jiang Jianian. The class monitor told Lin Yutong that Jiang Jianian usually did not come to class, especially recently. It seemed that he had asked the professor for leave, and he had not attended some courses that could not be exempted from self-study.
Jiang Jianian wasn't there, and she couldn't find him, so she immediately went to the law school to look for Ye Zhiwei. This time, her trip wasn't in vain; she didn't catch Jiang Jianian, but she finally caught up with Ye Zhiwei. She grabbed Ye Zhiwei's hand and immediately questioned her, "Where is Jiang Jianian? Tell me where Jiang Jianian is! I have something to ask him. You must know where he is, right?"
After Lin Yutong's last demonstration, Jiang Jianian was questioned by Ye Zhiwei a couple of times when he missed going to S City, asking if he had contacted Lin Yutong or if he had done something that made Lin Yutong misunderstand.
Jiang Jianian frowned, holding Ye Zhiwei on his lap and refusing to let her leave. He insisted on going through the chat history on her phone with her, one message at a time. Ye Zhiwei, on the other hand, became impatient. She knew all along that Jiang Jianian had no interest in Lin Yutong and even disliked Lin Yutong's repeated disturbances. Her attempt to pick a fight using Lin Yutong as an excuse was actually a deliberate attempt to annoy Jiang Jianian, but she didn't expect to be teased by him instead.
After that incident, Ye Zhiwei stopped caring about why Lin Yutong had misunderstood Jiang Jianian, until now when Lin Yutong was grabbing her and saying a bunch of strange things.
Ye Zhiwei frowned and pushed Lin Yutong away, saying expressionlessly, "I don't know what you're talking about, please let me go."
"It was Jiang Jianian! He must have deliberately swindled my money!" Suddenly in debt for 300,000 yuan, Lin Yutong panicked. Especially since she had been receiving calls from loan companies, some of which were for emergency loans that she had to repay in half a month.
She wasn't interested in figuring out what was going on; she just wanted to hold onto Ye Zhiwei tightly. If she made a big fuss, Ye Zhiwei might just pull out 300,000 yuan to save herself trouble. She didn't know why, but after realizing she had been tricked out of 300,000 yuan without even realizing it, she couldn't stay rational at all.
At this moment, nothing else seemed to matter; all she wanted was 300,000 yuan. But where would a freshman like her possibly get 300,000 yuan in such a short time?
As expected, Lin Yutong's words caught Ye Zhiwei's attention.
Ye Zhiwei's first reaction was that it was outrageous. How could Jiang Jianian, a money-making genius who could buy a luxurious villa near Peking University in his freshman year, possibly swindle money from Lin Yutong?
What exactly does Lin Yutong want to do?
She must have gone mad, as if she had suddenly lost her mind, clinging tightly to Ye Zhiwei and saying things that Ye Zhiwei found utterly absurd.
Lin Yutong stared intently at Ye Zhiwei. Deep down, she sensed the truth, but she refused to believe it. She was trapped in a cycle of self-deception, trying to convince Ye Zhiwei, but it was more like numbing herself as she gritted her teeth and said, "I'll show you my chat history with Jiang Jianian. He's a liar. He implied that my company was facing a bottleneck and was struggling financially, so he asked me for money. I transferred him 300,000 yuan, and now I can't contact him..."
Ye Zhiwei frowned as she looked at Lin Yutong's phone, and after a while, she said with a headache, "This person is not Jiang Jianian."
"How is that possible! How can he not be Jiang Jianian? This is clearly him—" Lin Yutong raised her voice, and more and more students from Yenching University gathered around to watch.
Lin Yutong gradually lost control of her emotions. She seemed to have lost her mind and wanted to do something. She grabbed Ye Zhiwei tightly and insisted, "This is Jiang Jianian's account, this is Jiang Jianian's contact information. This 300,000 yuan was transferred to him. If it weren't for you, I would never have transferred this money. It's all because of you, all because of your relationship. Jiang Jianian is not here now, you must return this money to me on his behalf. If you don't return it to me, I will kill myself right now!"
This is a scam.
Ye Zhiwei saw the chat history and roughly understood what was going on with Lin Yutong based on her words. It turned out that Lin Yutong had been tricked and was making a scene here. Ye Zhiwei was so angry that she laughed. She didn't like Lin Yutong using her liking for Jiang Jianian as an excuse to harass her. Now, Lin Yutong was shameless enough to insist that Ye Zhiwei was the one who tricked her.
Ye Zhiwei was so angry she laughed. She couldn't believe that such a thing could happen to someone who was just sitting at home and yet had trouble come out of nowhere.
She wasn't intimidated by Lin Yutong's words. Instead, she grabbed Lin Yutong's arm, dragged her towards the elevator, pressed the button for the top floor, and continued pulling Lin Yutong up to the rooftop. She shoved Lin Yutong forward and sneered, "So you're going to die if I don't give you the money? Lin Yutong, let me tell you, legally no one is responsible for another person's suicide. Even if you jump today, not only will I be uninvolved, but those fraudsters won't be held responsible either!"
"you!"
Looking at Lin Yutong, whose legs were already trembling, Ye Zhiwei continued expressionlessly, "Of course, I'm not a heartless person. If you really jump off here, I'll pay you back all the money for you. Not only will I pay it back, but I'll also cover your funeral expenses. Aren't you just trying to force me to pay you back by threatening to commit suicide? Fine, I agree. You can jump now."
