Chapter 68 Borrow another 300,000!
Fan Shengmei stared at the words "I miss you so much" on the phone screen, her fingers trembling slightly as they hovered above the send button.
Memories of the past, when I was looked down upon by others due to my family burdens and my love life was repeatedly frustrated, came flooding back like a tidal wave.
Wang Baichuan, "Xiaomei, it's not that my mother doesn't trust you personally, but your family is too 'rogue'. If you lose this house, our Wang family will be finished..."
Qu Lianjie said, "Who wants to get involved with your family's mess? Since we've known each other for a while, I'll have my assistant send you 1,000 yuan."
Qu Xiaoxiao: "Your brother is idle all day long. He gets into so many troubles and you have to clean up after him. Your sister-in-law is also a worry-free person. The whole family is counting on you. Anyone who gets involved with your family will be unlucky for the rest of their lives."
With his keen sense, Meng Yanchen would definitely be able to detect her abnormality as soon as this message was sent.
She couldn't drag him into this abyss, and more importantly, she didn't dare -
She hoped that the Fan Shengmei in Meng Yanchen's heart would always be the Fan Shengmei whose eyes would light up when discussing contracts and clients;
It’s Fan Shengmei who is determined to win over any client, no matter how difficult it is;
It is Fan Shengmei who always stands up for her friends.
Instead of this poor guy who is forced into a desperate situation by his loved ones and is sitting at the bus stop with tears streaming down his face.
She was scared.
I was afraid that when Meng Yanchen saw the real, scarred Fan Shengmei, there would be even a hint of disappointment or pity in his eyes.
I was afraid that after Meng Yanchen saw all this, he would turn around and leave politely but resolutely like everyone else.
She took a deep breath and tremblingly deleted the sentence "I miss you so much".
Re-enter, [eat, and make the final contract confirmation. 】
Meng Yanchen quickly replied, [Rest early after work, don’t work too hard]
A random photo was attached below the message:
On the plain beige tablecloth, his slender fingers casually rested on the edge of the bone china plate, and the silver cutlery shone with a delicate luster under the warm light.
It looks like he's still at a dinner party.
She clicked on the photo and zoomed in on Meng Yanchen's hand, which was as beautiful as ever.
Fan Shengmei loves his hands very much. They are big and have distinct joints. Every time she holds his hands, she feels warm and safe.
She touched the screen gently, trying to get more warmth and strength.
At this moment, Guan Juer's phone suddenly rang.
"Sister Fan! Where are you? Your brother is in Room 2202 and is rummaging through your room. Yingying and I can't stop him."
There was a loud noise of something heavy falling to the ground and the little earthworm's screams from the other end of the phone.
"Don't move, that's Sister Fan's most precious bag—"
Fan Shengmei's mind buzzed with excitement. That was the first gift Meng Yanchen gave her, something she was reluctant to sell even though she couldn't pay the rent.
"I'll be right back!"
When she pushed open the door of room 2202, her small compartment was in a mess, with clothes and cosmetics scattered all over the floor and all the drawers pulled open.
Fan Shengying was grabbing the shoulder strap of the Brink bag, roughly flipping through the lining label, and was about to take out her phone to check the price of the bag.
"Give me back my bag!"
Fan Shengmei's voice trembled as she rushed forward to grab it.
Fan Shengying dodged quickly, squinting her eyes.
"So nervous? Is this bag valuable? I can sell it to pay off my debts."
Qiu Yingying was so angry that she wanted to help: "That's Meng——"
Guan Juer quickly grabbed her and shook her head secretly to signal her not to speak.
Fan Shengmei forced herself to calm down.
"My colleague left it here, and I have to return it to him."
"Okay,"
Fan Shengying sneered, "Then go and borrow some money from me. Otherwise, I'll sell everything valuable in your house."
Fan Shengmei stared at the bag in his hand, gritted her teeth,
"Okay, give me back the bag and I'll borrow it for you."
Fan Shengying's eyes lit up, "Really?"
He shook the bag in his hand and said, "Then call me right now in front of me and I will believe you."
"Okay, I'll borrow it. I'll borrow it right away."
"Turn on the PA!"
Fan Shengmei dialed Andy's number tremblingly and cried even louder.
"Andy...can you...can you help me borrow some money from Lawyer Cao?"
Andy on the other end of the phone was having dinner with Bao Yifan.
When he heard Fan Shengmei crying loudly, he immediately put down the fork in his hand.
"How much?"
Andy asked calmly, a hint of alarm in his voice.
Fan Shengmei looked up at Fan Shengying, only to see him greedily extending five fingers.
"Five...five hundred thousand..." Fan Shengmei spit out the number with difficulty.
"Five hundred thousand?"
Andy's voice became noticeably more serious. "It's too much. They can't just lend you that much out of thin air."
Fan Shengmei looked at Fan Shengying again, who interrupted her impatiently.
"That's three hundred thousand!"
Andy's guess was confirmed, he took a deep breath and said,
"Okay, I'll ask. Wait for my call."
After hanging up the phone, Fan Shengmei hugged the Brink bag tightly.
"Can you give me my bag back now?"
Fan Shengying was in a good mood. She threw her bag to her and lay down on Fan Shengmei's bed like a big boss without even taking off her shoes.
"That's more like it."
He crossed his legs and said smugly, "Wouldn't it have been nice to be so happy earlier?"
The phone rang soon. It was Lawyer Cao calling personally.
"Xiaomei, are you okay?" Lawyer Cao's voice was gentle but concerned.
Fan Shengmei wiped her tears, her voice choked with sobs.
"Lawyer Cao, I'm sorry... I'm bothering you so late..."
"Andy told me a little bit about your situation."
Lawyer Cao paused. "I can borrow the money, but three hundred thousand is not a small sum. Although I trust you, I still need you to write an IOU."
Fan Shengmei looked up at Fan Shengying, who waved her hands impatiently.
"Why are you looking at me? Just write if they ask you to. These days, it's good enough to get paid!"
"Do you know how long it will take me to pay off this 300,000 yuan debt?" Fan Shengmei's voice trembled.
"Then you should find a rich man to marry!"
Fan Shengying blurted out, and then shouted into the phone,
"Lawyer, let's write an IOU! When can we get the money?"
Lawyer Cao calmly replied, "How about this? I'll give you an address, and you can come to me with the IOU. It just so happens that my bank card limit has been reached today, and I have some cash at home. If you're not in a hurry, you can transfer the money tomorrow..."
"Tonight! Tonight!"
Fan Shengying couldn't wait to interrupt, fearing that the other party would regret it.
"Cash is better, it saves the hassle of going to the bank! We'll be right there!"
After hanging up the phone, Fan Shengying grabbed Fan Shengmei and roughly pressed her on the table.
"Write the IOU!"
Fan Shengmei's hand holding the pen trembled constantly. She looked up and looked directly into Fan Shengying's eyes.
"Are you sure you want to do this? I'm your biological sister, Fan Shengying!"
"What nonsense!"
Fan Shengying slapped her on the back of the head, "It's only 300,000 yuan, you can save up the money!"
As he said this, he grabbed her thumb, smeared it with lipstick, and then forced it onto the IOU.
Fan Shengmei stared at the bright red fingerprint, then slowly raised her head to look at Fan Shengying's greedy face, and for the first time, cold hatred appeared in her eyes.
[Fan Shengying, I gave you a chance.]
