Chapter 107 Being Tricked
Jiang Yuan transferred the 300,000 yuan she had collected to her mother that day.
At present, she pays off her debts on time every month, temporarily appeasing the creditors in the village and preventing them from causing trouble in her mother's store. However, her bonus next month will be gone, and it is still unknown how she will repay the debt.
She listened to some of Xu Hui's words. The most direct solution was to accept the support conditions proposed by Yin Dong before. However, once there was an exchange of interests with him, it would be impossible for her to date him in the name of true love. There would only be a transaction between them.
A man with such high self-esteem as him could not possibly be attracted to a woman who sold her body. If he wasn't attracted, he wouldn't feel distressed, and he wouldn't put himself in her shoes and avenge her.
Jiang Yuan sorted out her thoughts again, but the huge debt still made her feel suffocated.
Near the end of the working day, Jiang Yuan suddenly received a call from Liang Zhouheng.
On the phone, his tone was the same as always, kind and gentle but not greasy. "Sister, are you off work? It's my brother's birthday today, come over and play."
Jiang Yuan paused slightly, remembering Yin Dong's repeated warnings to her, and blurted out the words of refusal, "Happy birthday to you, Brother Liang. Unfortunately, I have to work overtime until quite late today, so I can't come over."
Liang Zhouheng sneered twice on the phone and said, "Can we change the excuse? Have you ever counted how many times you've rejected your brother? Are you so cruel? Have you forgotten who rescued you from the bad guys in the first place? How come you've only been with Dongzi for two days and you've completely forgotten your brother?"
Jiang Yuan was stunned for a moment, surprised that Liang Zhouheng was so well-informed, but then he thought, maybe Yin Dong had specifically reminded him.
Liang Zhouheng chattered on the phone, "With Dongzi not here, how could I possibly eat you? Don't worry, I've already informed him. Just come over, play ball, have something to eat, and give me some face. I only celebrate my birthday once a year."
Jiang Yuan knew that he was lying. Yin Dong had been on the plane the whole time, so how did he report this to him?
She was still thinking of a solution when Liang Zhouheng continued, "If you don't believe me, wait until he lands and give him a call. I'll wait for you."
Jiang Yuan: "Then I'll come over after I finish my overtime work later."
"Okay, send me a message when you're done and I'll send someone to pick you up."
Liang Zhouheng hung up the phone and sat back down at the mahjong table.
The courtyard house where he was located was the property of the Liang family. It had been empty in the early days. Liang Zhouheng spent a lot of money to have it renovated, making it look antique and elegant. Even the inconspicuous furnishings inside were antique-level, which was quite luxurious. This was one of the places where their group of people often gathered.
The man sitting next to Liang Zhouheng, named Dong Tianhao, asked, "Which girl is this? Look how busy Young Master Liang is."
Liang Zhouheng glanced at him and said, "What are you asking for?"
Dong Tianhao: "Mr. Liang's new girlfriend?"
Liang Zhouheng smiled and said, "When did I ever have a girlfriend?"
Several people laughed.
Xu Jie, who was next to Dong Tianhao, asked, "It's not a girlfriend, it's a sister. Which sister did Mr. Liang let come tonight?"
Liang Zhouheng: "Hey, you can eat whatever you want, but don't talk nonsense, or you might get pricked on the tongue."
Xu Jie: "What's wrong? This girl tonight is quite famous."
As he finished speaking, Jiang Yu, who was sitting on the sofa, looked up at Liang Zhouheng. After her gaze lingered on him for a few seconds, she asked, "Mr. Liang, isn't Jiang Yuan also your sister? Why didn't she come to your brother's 30th birthday? Remember last time, you were very protective of her?"
Liang Zhouheng turned around and said with a smile, "Well, that girl is ungrateful and heartless. It's better for her not to come."
Jiang Yu: "Is it Yin Dong who doesn't allow her to come?"
Liang Zhouheng was so shocked that his jaw dropped and blurted out: "How did you know?"
Jiang Yu stared at him for two seconds, then asked, "Are they together?"
Liang Zhouheng rolled his eyes back and forth several times before he finally realized what was going on. Damn, he had been tricked.
