He Jing stepped towards the door, having already guessed why they had come.
Mother He pulled Father He aside and said nervously in a low voice, "They're probably here to urge Jingjing to pay back the money? I wonder how much Jingjing borrowed, and how much money we have left in our account?"
Mr. He said very seriously, "That's already 1,000. This month's expenses have already exceeded the limit."
The two of them suddenly felt a gloomy cloud hanging over them.
He Sui went to the kitchen to pour water, but didn't intend to bring it up. He knew that these rich kids would never drink the boiled water they made. So he simply gathered around He's mother and listened to them calculating what else they could save money on. He couldn't help but scoff, "You still want me to apologize for this? People are coming to collect debts. How embarrassing."
He Xiaoguo didn't dare to speak, timidly hiding behind the sofa and sticking her head out.
Suddenly, the group of men and women at the door, each looking incredibly wealthy, saw He Jing as if she were their second parents. Their eyes lit up, and they exclaimed with exaggerated expressions, "Sister Jing, we've finally found you! The problem-solving methods in the notes you sold us are too difficult; we can't understand them at all! Could you please explain them to us after the sale?"
Father He: "?"
Mother He: "?"
He Sui: "?"
He Xiaoguo: "?"
The person involved was not surprised at all and said without even frowning, "It is possible, but it is already very late."
"Sister Jing, there are only 48 hours left until Monday. Please treat this as a lifeline. We will definitely listen carefully and won't take up too much of your time!"
He Jing thought for a moment, then turned to her stunned parents and said, "Dad, Mom, I'm going out for a bit. I'll be back around 12 o'clock."
The underachieving students were moved to tears and hurriedly said, "Don't worry, uncles and aunts, we promise to bring you back safely!"
Before He's parents could react, the door slammed shut with a "bang," and He Jing had already left.
The living room was silent, except for the buzzing echo of the door closing.
After a long silence, as if lost in a trance, Mrs. He cautiously asked, "Honey, did you hear that just now?"
Mr. He's feelings were extremely complicated: "I heard it."
So He Jing really didn't take any money from the Cheng family; she earned the money to buy the oden herself. Then their earlier doubts about her must have been incredibly hurtful...
He Sui was extremely frustrated, and even his hand holding the glass of water was a little unsteady.
Who would have thought He Jing had this kind of way of making money?
Such a thing has never happened at their school before.
He Xiaoguo felt that she hadn't wasted her fish ball, and said with a smile, "Fourth Brother, you should apologize to Sister properly later."
He Sui glared at him, but had no choice but to reply, "I know."
The door to another room suddenly opened, and He Ning, wearing white headphones, walked out with a detached expression and handsome features: "I'm going out for a bit."
As He Ning's mother asked, "Where are you going so late?" He Ning left without looking back, and there was another "bang" at the door.
...
He Jing got into the car of the academic underachiever A, a limited edition Ferrari, the flashy red color was incredibly cool. He Jing remembered that academic underachiever A was not yet 18 years old, and her pretty eyebrows furrowed slightly.
The other two girls who were assigned to sit with her didn't notice her emotions and even told He Jing the reason, "This is his cousin's car, and he was temporarily lent it to him. His driver's license is also in the car."
He Jing said, "I'll drive."
The tone left no room for argument.
The academically challenged student A wanted to show off in front of He Jing, but she just flipped him to the passenger seat. He felt wronged but didn't dare to say anything, afraid that He Jing would turn around and leave if she was unhappy. However, once He Jing got into position, it was clear that she was an experienced driver.
Her profile was excessively beautiful in the cold moonlight, and the academically challenged student A couldn't help but ask, "Sister Jing, how long have you been learning to drive?"
