Chapter 1288 The widowed mother who worries too much (End)
When it comes to how to become beautiful, no matter how old a woman is, she will never lose interest. The same is true for Li Yu. When she heard Zheng Shichu say that the style of clothes she wore was wrong and that made her look old, she immediately couldn't wait to ask Zheng Shichu to give her some advice.
Zheng Shichu did not refuse and took her directly to the studio of a stylist he knew before and asked him to help Li Yu with a makeover.
Li Yu was both expectant and nervous. She was just an ordinary person who seldom wore makeup in her life, let alone had her hair done. But now she was being transformed bit by bit by the stylist. Seeing her image becoming more and more vivid and herself becoming more and more beautiful, she seemed like a completely different person. She felt excited and thrilled.
After she finished her styling, she looked ten years younger and looked like a fashionable aunt.
"Is this really me?" Li Yu simply didn't believe his own eyes. He looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar face in the mirror. His eyes were hot. He vaguely saw himself in his prime when he was young...
Zheng Shichu patted her shoulder and said, "That's you. The stylist has just told you what kind of makeup and clothes suit you, right? If you dress accordingly, you will be the fashionable sister that others envy when you go out."
"I hope so, thank you for your advice." Li Yu wanted to glue her eyes to the mirror. Zheng Shichu understood her feelings and did not urge her, allowing her to admire her beauty to her heart's content.
"Do you need me to take a picture for you?" Zheng Shichu asked her.
"Yes, yes!" Li Yu nodded rapidly, immediately took out her cell phone and handed it to Zheng Shichu, then posed for her to take the photo.
Zheng Shichu acted as a photographer conscientiously. When Li Yu finally stopped with satisfaction, her phone's memory was almost full. Soon, she saw the photos Li Yu had posted on her WeChat Moments...
Zheng Shichu's modeling career is booming, she has good friends around her, and she lives a happy and comfortable life, but her adopted son is not as carefree as her.
Because he could not afford the online loans soon, he had to borrow from Peter to pay Paul, and his monthly salary was not enough to pay off the debts. But his girlfriend often asked him for small gifts and to have meals together. He worried about money every day and his hair was almost pulled bald. Finally, after he was overdue and could not pay back the money, he was chased for debt.
His colleagues and friends were in trouble. They were implicated by him and their phones kept ringing all day long. They were all debt collectors. So the fact that Wu Li couldn't pay back the online loan soon became a hot topic in the company. Even his classmates in college, middle school, and elementary school knew about it...
The people around him were implicated by him and were very annoyed. Many people called to scold him, and many came to mock him, but no one was willing to lend him a helping hand. His popularity was extremely bad.
As his biological mother, Zheng Shichu would of course be harassed by online loan companies for debt repayment. Her phone kept ringing. She answered it once and found out that it was because Wu Li could not repay the online loan. She immediately wrote a small program to filter out calls from these online loan companies. She would not change her mobile phone number for this reason. After all, she is a model now. If she changed her mobile phone number, it would be inconvenient for her to get work. There was no need for her to change the number she had used for so long just because of Wu Li's mistake.
After Wu Li was chased for debts, he could no longer stay in the company. His boss tactfully asked him to resign, but he knew that if he really resigned, he would probably not be able to find another job. So he shamelessly stayed in the company and refused to leave. However, many colleagues protested, and finally the boss had to admit defeat and compensated him with three months' salary before firing him.
The three months' salary as compensation had not even stayed in his card for three minutes before it was immediately deducted from his debt. However, this amount of money was still a drop in the bucket, and he still owed a huge debt.
Wu Li, who had lost his job and had no money, naturally had no money to rent a house. He went to find his girlfriend Xu Xiaorou, hoping that she would help him temporarily. However, when Xu Xiaorou learned that he owed an online loan, she immediately turned hostile and broke up with him.
Wu Li couldn't believe his ears. He looked at Xu Xiaorou, who seemed like a completely different person, and said, "Break up? Why did I take out an online loan? Wasn't it to give you a gift and treat you to a meal? It's because of you that I became like this, and now you want to break up with me?!"
Wu Li's face was grim, his hands were clenched into fists, and his eyes were fixed on Xu Xiaorou. However, Xu Xiaorou only felt that he was annoying and said contemptuously, "Don't use me as an excuse! The gifts you gave me were not even worth tens of thousands, and you still have the nerve to say that? The meals you treated me to were not even to high-end places. You were so poor that every time I went out to eat with you, I didn't dare to post on WeChat Moments, for fear of being laughed at by the sisters... You are being chased for debts now. If I don't break up with you, am I waiting to help you pay off your debts? I'm not cheap!"
Wu Li's face suddenly twisted, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Xu Xiaorou! I didn't expect you to be such a vain person who despises the poor and loves the rich. You've hurt me so much, but you want to break up? I tell you, this is impossible. I'll drag you down with me even if I die!"
"Wu Li! Are you still a man? I didn't force you to take out online loans, so what does it have to do with me? If you know what's good for you, just part ways with me in peace. If you dare to continue to pester me, I will not be polite to you!" Xu Xiaorou's tone became sour.
In fact, even if Wu Li felt sorry for anyone, he had never felt sorry for Xu Xiaorou. Xu Xiaorou was probably his true love. He worked hard for her in college and even helped her with homework and washed her clothes and socks. He was so virtuous that nothing could be said about it. After he started working and could earn money, he treated her even better. Except for rent and a very small amount of money, he basically spent all his salary on her.
Wu Li is not a good son or colleague, but he is definitely a good boyfriend. In the original world, even though Xu Xiaorou's family insisted on a 500,000 yuan gift before agreeing to their marriage, didn't Wu Li force the original owner to pay? Later, Xu Xiaorou wanted to buy a house, and Wu Li forced the original owner to pay the down payment...
It can be said that Wu Li was not so kind even to his own mother, but Xu Xiaorou obviously did not "truly love" Wu Li so much. When she knew he owed money, she immediately wanted to leave.
Unfortunately, Wu Li was already anxious and panicked about the online loan, and then he was abandoned and ridiculed by his girlfriend. He immediately had a breakdown. He turned his love into hate for Xu Xiaorou and really began to harass her, leaving her with no peace.
Finally, during a heated argument, Wu Li became so angry that he impulsively stabbed Xu Xiaorou several times with a knife.
Xu Xiaorou did not die, but her intestines and one kidney were damaged. Even if she is still alive, the sequelae will torment her for the rest of her life; and Wu Li was naturally thrown into prison and sentenced to life imprisonment.
After Zheng Shichu knew about this, she went to visit him in prison. However, Wu Li resented her, thinking that if she had not suddenly cut off contact and refused to give him money, he would not have borrowed money or taken out online loans... and ended up with this result.
Even after he was in jail, he still thought that everything was someone else's fault. Zheng Shichu felt that he was hopeless and never saw him again.
She is rich and has free time. She lives a leisurely life without any children and has become one of the legends in the modeling industry.
