Chapter 92: Offending the Professor
Qiu Jing is with her family at this moment. The strong woman is busy traveling all year round and rarely has a few days of rest. When she received this WeChat message from Liu Lan, Qiu Jing frowned.
Her husband asked, "What's wrong? Is there something wrong with the company again?"
"You still remember the little girl I told you about when I went back to my alma mater and found her, right?"
"Of course I remember. You were full of praise for her."
"She asked me when I would give her the money."
"Why are you in such a hurry? You won't lose her. Besides, why do you have to come to you to ask for money? It's like a migrant worker asking for wages. It's so rude."
"This is the first time I've encountered such a thing. This child disappoints me. Her desire for money is greater than I thought."
"Maybe his family is poor and he wants to use this money to improve his life."
Qiu Jing thought again of how Liu Lan ran out with a veterinarian to eat barbecue so late at night, without even caring about her safety. It was indeed the behavior of a poor person, and it was such a waste of her good looks and temperament.

...
"I will only give her this one performance opportunity. There won't be a second one."
About half an hour later, Qiu Jing replied to Liu Lan, "The company's financial department is still on holiday, so I'm afraid your salary won't be paid until after the New Year."
Liu Man asked: "When is the New Year?"
"It will definitely be sent out in early March," Qiu Jing was already annoyed when she typed this message.
Finance has always been slow in doing things, and we had just returned from the long Spring Festival holiday, so no one was in the mood to go back to work. Even though it was early March, they all thought it was too early.
But Liu Lan couldn't wait any longer. "Professor Qiu, could you please give me the money in advance? I have something going on at home and I need the money urgently."
Five minutes later, she received a reply from Qiu Jing, "Go find my assistant Zhou Qian, her WeChat ID is: 187XXXXXXXX."
Liu Lan added Zhou Qian's WeChat again, and Zhou Qian accepted in seconds. This was because Qiu Jing had called her just now and asked her to transfer 60,000 yuan from the general manager's reserve fund directly to Liu Lan, including 50,000 yuan in remuneration, 8,000 yuan in travel allowance, and 2,000 yuan for a return ticket.
Zhou Qian asked doubtfully, "The full-price ticket from Shanghai to the capital is only 2,000 yuan. Even if you add the taxi fare every day, it shouldn't be that much."
Qiu Jing got angry, "Just charge her the full price for the ticket!" She just wanted to get rid of this person who was making trouble for money.
A day later, Zhou Qian transferred 60,000 yuan to Liu Lan through Alipay.
On the seventh day of the first lunar month, Zhang Pei returned home with 150,000 yuan borrowed from her relatives. After the Spring Festival, she not only did not gain weight, but lost weight.
Zhang Pei's hometown is in a county town near the capital. Her parents are still alive, and she has a brother and a sister. Shortly after her husband's accident, Zhang Pei called them to borrow money. This time when she went home for the New Year, she went directly to get the money, and originally wanted to borrow some more from other relatives and friends.
But Zhang Pei had been away from her hometown for more than 20 years. After getting married, she became a full-time housewife and rarely interacted with relatives and former classmates and friends. When she asked to borrow money, those people asked her, "Didn't you marry well? Your husband is a high-ranking official and makes a lot of money. You don't even have to go out to work. Why do you still need to borrow money?"
No one was willing to lend her money.
She remembered the account she had written in the notebook. She had only borrowed 2 million yuan from the bank, and she still needed 180,000 yuan. What should she do?
All the way back to the capital from his hometown, Zhang Pei was trying to find a solution.
As for Liu Chengyu, both his parents have passed away, and he only has two older sisters who have already married and they rarely interact with him, so it is unrealistic to borrow money from them.
Several of Liu Chengyu's close friends who were also his colleagues cut off all ties with his family for fear of getting into trouble.
Zhang Peisi thought about it and realized that the only person he could count on was Sun Yiyi. Sun Yiyi was a lawyer, his wife was a judge, and their family conditions had always been better than theirs. Their daughter, Sun Weiwei, was more motivated than Liu Lan, and she had never attended cram schools, paid school selection fees, or wasted a penny. She was admitted to Capital University smoothly. On the other hand, his family had spent hundreds of thousands of yuan just on training Liu Lan to learn piano, not to mention the shoes, clothes, and various cosmetics they bought to satisfy Liu Lan's hobbies and shopping desires.
Sun Yiyi knew about their family’s difficulties, and he was the one who took the initiative to lend her the 150,000 yuan.
If she asked to borrow another 180,000 yuan, Zhang Pei believed that Sun Yiyi would agree.
Anxious Zhang Pei called Sun Yiyi on the way home.
