Chapter 172 Borrowing Money



"Why didn't anyone tell me sooner?!"

Su Qiaoqiao glared at Jiang Aiguo, exasperated. "Aren't you in charge of the educated youth settlement? How can you be so irresponsible?!"

Seeing Su Qiaoqiao's angry expression, Jiang Aiguo felt a little regretful about his decision.

He had a change of heart after hearing Su Qiaoqiao say that her grandfather was the number one traditional Chinese medicine doctor in Haicheng.

Jiang Aiguo has been working in the countryside for eight years.

Relying on himself and his dirt-poor family, he'll never be able to return to the city.

At first, he set his sights on Guo Tianya.

But later, he gradually discovered that Guo Tianya's father was just an ordinary purchasing agent and her mother was just a housewife without a job.

It's just that they doted on their daughter too much and had some savings, which allowed her to spend money lavishly.

This family couldn't get him to return to the city, so Guo Tianya was basically abandoned by him.

However, Su Qiaoqiao is different.

Su Qiaoqiao's family must have some kind of power.

Now that Su Qiaoqiao is isolated and abandoned by everyone, it is the best time for me to take advantage of her vulnerability.

He just didn't expect that the spoiled Guo Tianya would get jealous just because she saw him talking to Su Qiaoqiao for a few minutes that morning. She rushed over and found an excuse to fight with Su Qiaoqiao.

Luckily, he slipped away in time, otherwise this situation would have been really difficult to resolve.

He only came over after he saw Guo Tianya finish her meal and go back to her room.

But Su Qiaoqiao's spoiled princess temper is really hard to please!

Jiang Aiguo, with a forced smile, was about to explain when the door was suddenly kicked open, and Guo Tianya, like a persistent ghost, rushed in again.

I immediately noticed the biscuit tin in Jiang Aiguo's hand.

"Oh, so you've learned to use others' flowers to present to Buddha?" she said, snatching the whole tub of cookies away.

Jiang Aiguo then remembered that Guo Tianya had given him this tub of cookies one night when he said he was always hungry.

Guo Tianya gave him so many things that he became somewhat numb to them, which is why he couldn't remember them.

Now that he had been exposed, he didn't blush; instead, he spoke with righteous indignation:

“Guo Zhiqing, you’re wrong about that!”

Su, the educated youth, did not eat with the others; as far as I know, she did not eat breakfast that morning!

You saw how many people fainted this morning during the rush to harvest these past few days!

As the person in charge of the educated youth settlement, I have an obligation to take care of every educated youth!

At the very least, don't let any educated youth faint from hunger on the front lines of the harvest!

Guo Tianya scoffed and rolled her eyes.

Su Qiaoqiao finally understood: "You two, are you dating?"

"What's wrong now?"

No! Absolutely not!

Guo Tianya and Jiang Aiguo could both blurt it out at the same time.

Su Qiaoqiao sneered and looked at Guo Tianya: "So, the reason you picked a fight with me this morning was because this guy surnamed Jiang spoke to me, right?"

"You're asking for it! You know he's my boyfriend, and you still smile at him like that?" Guo Tianya glared at her. "Let me tell you, Su Qiaoqiao, if you act like that again, I'll beat you up every time I see you!"

"Guo Tianya!" Jiang Aiguo shouted, "Why are you slandering me? When did I start dating you?"

"..." Guo Tianya was completely speechless at his words, and then her voice trembled with tears, "Jiang Aiguo, what do you mean?! You've taken advantage of me and are trying to run away? Let me tell you, no way!"

"I'm sorry, Su Qingqing, I'm sorry you had to see this," Jiang Aiguo apologized to Su Qiaoqiao. "This Guo Qingqing, she has that...paranoia. She was convinced that Hu Zhenbo was her boyfriend, but Hu Zhenbo denied it long ago, so she set her sights on me! Sigh!"

Guo Tianya couldn't believe her ears: "Jiang Aiguo! Haven't I treated you well? I dumped Hu Zhenbo for you!"

“Look, that’s her symptom! Delusions! Sigh!” Jiang Aiguo sighed helplessly.

Su Qiaoqiao is willful and capricious, but she is neither blind nor stupid.

She immediately pointed to the bucket of cookies that Guo Tianya was holding and said sarcastically, "I suppose this bucket of cookies was accidentally given to you by Guo Zhiqing when she was having an episode?"

Guo Tianya burst out laughing at those words.

The two girls exchanged a glance, and the animosity they had developed because of the filthy man vanished instantly.

Even the shameless Jiang Aiguo blushed slightly at this moment.

He stammered:

Time will tell!

Su, I did this for the sake of unity within the educated youth compound and for the progress of all educated youth!

You don't appreciate it because you're young!

It's alright, you'll understand my good intentions later!

Su Qiaoqiao and Guo Tianya exchanged another glance, both stunned by Jiang Aiguo's shameless remarks.

Su Qiaoqiao: "What unity and progress? You just want to seduce me, don't you?"

Guo Tianya: "You say you have good intentions? I think you have ulterior motives!"

After saying that, she rolled her eyes at Su Qiaoqiao: "Hey! Haven't you eaten? I still have some cookies, want some?"

Su Qiaoqiao smiled shyly: "Eat! Thank you, Sister Guo!"

Guo Tianya: "Here you go!"

As he spoke, he handed the biscuit tin to Su Qiaoqiao.

Su Qiaoqiao immediately pried open the lid of the bucket and discovered that it contained two kinds of biscuits—half of which was cream waffle and the other half was vegetable soda.

She immediately took out two cream waffles and shared one with Guo Tianya: "This brand is also my favorite, but you need foreign exchange certificates to buy it. My grandfather only buys me four tubs a month, which is not enough!"

"Four buckets aren't enough for you? My dad only buys me two buckets a month! And this is only because I was going to the countryside, and I had to beg and plead before they finally mailed me ten buckets!" Guo Tianya said, glancing at Jiang Aiguo as she ate. "What a pity, I accidentally lost five buckets!"

"Huh, such a big bucket, how could you throw it away?" Su Qiaoqiao was very puzzled.

"Hey, it's not that it's lost, it's that I was blind and fed it to the turtles!" Guo Tianya said, staring straight at Jiang Aiguo without any fear.

Despite being called a bastard, Jiang Aiguo wasn't annoyed: "Alright, now that Su Zhiqing has food, my task is complete! You're young, I won't stoop to your level!"

After saying that, he turned to leave.

"Jiang Zhiqing, wait a minute!" Guo Tianya called out to him. "You just said that we're not dating, right?"

Jiang Aiguo's face immediately showed impatience:

"Guo Zhiqing, can you please stop being so neurotic?"

We're just ordinary friends!

You're young, so I only treat you like a little sister!

Perhaps I've been too kind to you, which is why you've started having these inappropriate thoughts!

That's wrong!

“Jiang Zhiqing, I just have a question I don’t quite understand—last month, when you said your fourth brother was sick and asked me to borrow 120 yuan, you said it was to make a good impression on your parents beforehand, is that true?” Guo Tianya said, word by word.

“Tianya! Although we’re not dating, we’re in the same educated youth compound, so we’re friends. It’s normal for friends to help each other and lend each other money, isn’t it?” Jiang Aiguo’s face finally turned bright red.
