Even if the neighbors here aren't as familiar with Wang Fengfeng's character as they are with her living in the same building...
I had heard about that before.
If Xu Rong dared to say that Wang Fengfeng had hidden all the money from selling the stolen goods from the Yun family at home, Xu Rong would be cursed so badly that she would never dare to set foot here again.
Therefore, Xu Rong could only swallow her anger and dared not mention it.
But with Yun Tangyin pressing her relentlessly, Xu Rong couldn't help but grit her teeth as she watched Yun Tangyin's determined expression, as if she wouldn't give up until she got the money.
Xu Runli's matter was still unresolved, and she had to appease Yun Tangyin first. Xu Rong forcibly suppressed her dissatisfaction and pretended to be caring: "Yinyin, how much money do you need? I'll help as much as I can..."
Finally, Xu Rong was forced to open her mouth.
Yun Tangyin didn't say a number, but nodded: "It's good that you have the thought."
Hearing Yun Tangyin say this, Xu Rong thought that Yun Tangyin was going to let her go, and a look of joy immediately appeared on her face.
"Yinyin, that luscious beauty..."
However, before Xu Rong could finish speaking, Yun Tangyin interrupted her directly: "Sigh, but it's not easy for me to live alone. How about this, you give me an IOU?"
Upon hearing this, Xu Rong's joy instantly plummeted.
If an IOU is signed in public, then the debt is a done deal.
The family was already broke, and signing an IOU would only make matters worse. Xu Rong would never agree to that.
Her face was ashen, turning from green to white in an instant, and she no longer cared what her neighbors were thinking.
All he could think about was how to get Yun Tangyin to put the IOU aside for now.
"Yinyin, look..." Xu Rong could only lower her face and coax Yun Tangyin in a flattering tone.
Let them off this time, at least.
Once they move out, Yun Tangyin will be able to find them no matter where she goes!
But Yun Tangyin isn't that naive.
“I can’t look at it anymore. Since the neighbors are all here, why don’t you just sign it? Otherwise, I won’t know where to find you next time. What if you take Xu Runli and move away? How am I supposed to find you then, somewhere in the world?”
Yun Tangyin once again revealed that vulnerable, pitiful expression.
This one sentence prompted the neighbors to stand up for Yun Tangyin.
"That's right, she's just a young girl, shouldn't you at least give her an IOU?"
"Otherwise, if there's no money and no IOU, and they just renege on their debt without any proof, what will Yinyin do all by herself?"
"You can't bully a little girl like that! You're really cunning!"
The neighbors' words were like knives, practically held to Xu Rong's neck, forcing her to sign an IOU on the spot.
It's no exaggeration to say that with such a passionate group of neighbors surrounding her, Xu Rong absolutely couldn't leave without an IOU.
Now she regrets that she shouldn't have tried to morally blackmail Yun Tangyin by kneeling down.
How did it turn out that she was the one being manipulated by Yun Tangyin?
Xu Rong was filled with regret, but it was too late. In this situation, Xu Rong had become the target of everyone's condemnation.
Yun Tangyin stood there, still feeling grateful: There are still so many good people in the world!
She remembers every single one of them who speaks up for her; they are all good people.
Xu Rong stammered, "I...I didn't bring any paper or pen either..."
No sooner had she finished speaking than a man in a Zhongshan suit and glasses chimed in, "That's easy, I have one!"
Yun Tangyin recognized the man; his surname was Zhou. He was a cultured intellectual who was now the director of a textile factory. He often wore a Hero brand fountain pen in his breast pocket.
As Director Zhou pulled a pen from his breast pocket, he took out a palm-sized notebook from his right pocket, opened it to a blank page, and handed it to Xu Rong.
"I always carry this with me."
Director Zhou smiled, and then the other neighbors around him began urging Xu Rong to write the IOU quickly.
"Now that we have paper and pen, let's write!"
"Yes, don't let people laugh at us. How can someone so grown up have no sense of responsibility?"
Xu Rong reluctantly took the paper and pen, looking at Yun Tangyin who stood there silently, and wrote with a feeling as heavy as a thousand pounds.
I dawdled for several minutes and still couldn't finish writing.
Yun Tangyin knew that Xu Rong didn't want to write, so she didn't urge her and just stood there waiting.
The attitude is already very clear.
Xu Rong gritted her teeth. There was no other way; she couldn't get anything out of it no matter how much she dragged it out. She had no choice but to write!
After quickly finishing writing, Xu Rong tore off the paper and handed it to Yun Tangyin: "Is this okay?"
Although it was a question, Xu Rong's words already carried a hint of anger.
Yun Tangyin took the IOU and looked at it.
The IOU is indeed signed Xu Rong, but there's something wrong with the content.
She wrote that she owed 100,000 yuan for the house.
If we were to delve into this, it would be quite a complicated matter. What kind of payment was it? Was it for rent or for selling the property? Even if this IOU were taken to court, it would drag on for a year with endless legal battles.
Yun Tangyin saw through Xu Rong's little scheme at a glance.
She probably thought Yun Tangyin was too young to be cunning, so she couldn't see through her tricks.
Yun Tangyin looked at the IOU and suddenly laughed.
This smile left Xu Rong somewhat bewildered, and she even felt a little uneasy looking at Yun Tangyin's smile.
Xu Rong knew that Yun Tangyin was difficult to deal with now, but for a moment she couldn't figure out if Yun Tangyin had discovered it...
Logically speaking, Yun Tangyin shouldn't understand the intricacies of this matter.
Xu Rong stared at Yun Tangyin's expression, somewhat nervously: "Yinyin, what are you laughing at?"
Yun Tangyin put the IOU away and nodded: "It's nothing, I just feel that having an IOU gives me some security."
Xu Rong finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Thankfully, that brat isn't that smart.
Xu Rong was still secretly laughing at Yun Tangyin's foolishness.
But in reality, Yun Tangyin was secretly laughing at Xu Rong for being a fool.
Just wait and see.
After Yun Tangyin put the IOU into her bag, Xu Rong didn't dare to bother Yun Tangyin about Xu Runli anymore, for fear of dragging something else into the conversation. She had already lost enough face.
But Yun Tangyin wouldn't let her go so easily.
Yun Tangyin called out to Xu Rong, "Wait a minute! I have something else to ask you."
Xu Rong stopped and turned to look at Yun Tangyin: "What is it?"
Yun Tangyin tilted her head, looking innocent: "Does your mother have a friend she often gambles with who works at the Fu family's old house?"
Hearing Yun Tangyin ask this question, Xu Rong's heart skipped a beat.
Why would this brat suddenly ask that?
Could something have already happened?
Xu Rong could only bite the bullet and say, "I don't know, I'm not sure..."
This is a stubborn refusal to admit it.
But how could Yun Tangyin let her off so easily?
