Chapter 41: I paid back the money.
I asked Xiao Shi if he could help me find Liu Xu so I could ask him something.
"After provoking the incident, he ran away. I'm looking for him now. I'll let you know when I find him."
I nodded, and two days passed like this. Tonight at twelve o'clock was the time Jiang Ruohe and I agreed to pay back the money.
In the afternoon, I received this month's salary from Xiao Shi. In the evening, after playing the piano in the bar, Han Ming gave me the salary. After depositing the money in the bank, I found that it was enough for 100,000 yuan, and there was a little more for living expenses.
As soon as I came out of the bank, Tian Rong called me.
"Xiao Wan, the time to pay Jiang Ruohe back is coming. Have you collected enough money? If not, I have 20,000 yuan here and I'll lend it to you first."
I told Tian Rong that it was not necessary because I had enough money.
After hanging up the phone, I was about to go home. Just as I walked out of the alley, I was pulled into the alley. When I looked up, I saw a man holding a fruit knife and with a scar on his face.
"Hand over the card."
Looking at the shiny fruit knife against my neck, if it were in the past, I would think that life is more important and would definitely give up my money for the sake of my life. But now, if I don’t pay back the 100,000 yuan to Jiang Ruohe, I don’t know how he will look at me.
I hate Jiang Ruohe's look of disgust and contempt, so this time, I want money and I want my life too.
"Brother, I really don't have any money."
"Stop quibbling. I just saw what you saved. Hand over the card and password." The scarred man cursed fiercely.
Seeing that I refused to take it, he reached into my pocket. I hurriedly protected my pocket, kicked him with my leg, and turned around and ran away.
The man with the scar immediately caught up with me, cursing that I was looking for death. I quickly ran out of the alley, shouting for help. The man with the scar got angry and caught up with me. He aimed at my right arm and slashed at me. I fell to the ground.
Fortunately, my shouting attracted several passers-by who came over. The man with the scar looked at me resentfully, turned around and ran away.
Several people helped me up, called the police, and said they would escort me to the hospital. I took a look at my bleeding right arm, tore off my sleeve, wrapped it around the wound, said thank you to them, and hurried home.
When I got back, Jiang Ruohe was sitting on the sofa and looking at me indifferently. He was about to ask me something, but suddenly he stood up from the sofa, walked in front of me, frowned and looked at my arm.
"What happened?"
"I was robbed on my way back, but don't worry. I finally paid back the money I owed you."
I took out my bank card from my pocket and placed it on the coffee table.
"One hundred thousand, Jiang Ruohe, I'll pay you back."
Jiang Ruohe stared at me.
"Yu Xiaowan, you idiot, are you trying to kill yourself? If someone robs you, why don't you just give him the money?"
Jiang Ruohe's roar made my ears buzz, and I looked up and glared at him.
"Isn't it to pay you back? Otherwise, would I risk my life?" I also yelled.
I also know that life is important, but I don’t like the disgusted look in Jiang Ruohe’s eyes when he looks at me.
Jiang Ruohe paused, a complicated look flashed across his eyes, and he reached out to pull me downstairs, found the medicine box and disinfected and bandaged me there. During this time, Jiang Ruohe's cell phone on the coffee table rang several times, but Jiang Ruohe didn't answer it. I took a look and saw that it was Huang Minwei calling.
When Huang Minwei made the fifth call, Jiang Ruohe picked up the call impatiently.
"I'm busy." He hung up the phone after saying these two words.
After bandaging the wound, Jiang Ruohe told me to sleep in the guest room and went upstairs.
The next day was Saturday and I didn’t have to go to work. After breakfast, I went out to the mall to buy some things and planned to visit my dad. But on the way there, I felt a sudden pain in the back of my head and I lost consciousness.
When I woke up, I found myself tied up in an abandoned warehouse. There was someone looking at me with resentment. I looked up and saw it was Liu Xu.
