Zhao Sulan didn’t see ng Chuyue at the examination site, but she saw ng Jinhua and Fu Hongfang.
She narrowed her eyes, recalling that ng Jinhua’s son was also taking the college entrance exam this year, and she understood.
She was worried about not being able to find ng Jingfen. Seeing this, she strode over, poked Fu Hongfang’s shoulder, and said loudly, "You are ng Jingfen’s mother, right? She owes money. Tell her to pay back quickly, or I’ll take the IOU to the police."
ng Jinhua and Fu Hongfang jumped in fright.
They recognized her as Zhao Sulan and got another shock.
It took a while for Fu Hongfang to pat her chest and say, "How could my Jingfen owe you money?"
Zhao Sulan scoffed, "She ran into last year when she was short of money, and I lent it to her. Stop fussing, just tell ng Jingfen to bring the money to at Spring Garden Hotel room 305 within two days, or I will go to the police."
Zhao Sulan finished speaking and walked away nonchalantly.
ng Jinhua and Fu Hongfang were dumbstruck.
Speaking of which, things had been going very smoothly for their family during this period.
Not only were ng Yajun’s grades excellent, ng Jingfen had suddenly lost a lot of weight for so unknown reason, becoming quite attractive, and she had recently started dating a man from Hai City.
Though his family was not particularly wealthy, he had a stable job and a house, and he was quite handso. They and ng Jingfen were very satisfied and were planning to get married in October.
These happy events had almost made them forget their past troubles, but now Zhao Sulan’s return had been a severe blow to their hearts.
Fu Hongfang couldn’t help saying, "I don’t believe Jingfen would borrow money from Zhao Sulan. She must be trying to scam us."
Amid the scorching heat, ng Jinhua shivered, "That’s even worse then. Rather than a scam, I would prefer it if Jingfen really owed her the money."
...
ng Jingfen felt the sa way.
When Fu Hongfang and ng Jinhua told her this terrible news, she almost wished she really did owe Zhao Sulan money.
Even though she didn’t have much money now, she would rather borrow from loan sharks to pay back Zhao Sulan.
But the fact was, she didn’t owe Zhao Sulan any money.
There was no financial dispute between them at all.
Zhao Sulan was only trying to blackmail her.
To blackmail her with sothing she had done in the past.
ng Jingfen secretly prayed that Zhao Sulan wouldn’t ask for too much money, and that this would be the only ti.
Her heart filled with anxiety, she lied to the persistent ng Jinhua and Fu Hongfang, "I indeed owe her ten thousand yuan. I thought her money was easy to borrow and planned not to pay it back. Actually, if she was still Mrs. Lin, she definitely wouldn’t have co after for the debt, but unfortunately, she’s short of money now, so... Dad, Mom, you must help . Once I’m married to Zhengnan, I will definitely pay you back as soon as possible."
ng Jingfen almost blurted out, "You both have taken quite a bit of money from ; that money includes this amount."
ng Jinhua and Fu Hongfang had actually thought of this point.
Feeling sowhat guilty, just last ti they had spent a lot to bail ng Jinhua out, and their ho didn’t have even ten thousand or a thousand yuan.
However, since ng Jingfen was about to marry into a good family, they definitely couldn’t abandon her. ng Jinhua quickly said, "You go and see Zhao Sulan first, see if you can pay back less first. I’ll go to your second uncle and think of a way."
"Thank you, Dad, Mom,"
Since being frightened by Wang Zhipeng and Lin Fangwei’s death into not eating and drastically losing weight, ng Jingfen’s whole deanor had changed.
She now had quite the air of a city girl.
She politely thanked ng Jinhua and Fu Hongfang, went to the restroom to change into a more modest outfit, took the little over two thousand yuan she had secretly saved, and headed to the address Zhao Sulan had given at Spring Garden Hotel.
Unfortunately, Zhao Sulan wasn’t there, so she had to wait.
This wait lasted for over six hours until four in the afternoon when Zhao Sulan ca back with a gloomy face.
But her mood imdiately improved upon seeing ng Jingfen.
They both entered Zhao Sulan’s room, and before Zhao Sulan could even speak, ng Jingfen knelt before her with a "plop."
