Chapter 1 Pity at First Sight
The rain in June always comes and goes. The rain continued unabated, and soon the ground was flooded into a river. It's been raining for the last week. The world of Xu Xinuo is as gloomy as the sky.
She leaned lifelessly against the glass window and watched the rain outside. The cold rain made the streets uninhabited, and the moon flowers planted in the green belt next to the road were knocked off a few petals by the rain, covered in mud and sand, and lay on the rain-soaked ground, which was very miserable and distressing.
Those tenacious flowers were swayed from side to side by the wind, and they endured this sudden wind and rain, without any support, without any shelter.
Looking at this scene in front of him, Xu Xinuo was full of emotion in his heart.
Qin Mo, who came from outside with an umbrella, looked at Xu Xinuo, who was looking at Xu Xinuo with a dull gaze in front of him, and a trace of distress welled up in his heart.
Her face is as bright as the moon, and she can make people's eyes shine. She is now leaning against the edge of the floor-to-ceiling window in such a decadence, staring blankly at the outside The picture is full of atmosphere and storytelling, which is better than the covers of many magazines.
Qin Mo couldn't help but take a few more looks. Walking into the hall, he put away his thoughts and walked inside under the respectful greeting and gaze of the staff. Today he came to talk about cooperation with Huasheng Group, and by the way, he visited his friend for many years, Zhou Yue, the boss of Huasheng Group.
When they arrived at Zhou Yue's office, they chatted happily. When it was almost noon, they planned to go to a nearby hotel for lunch together.
When he walked downstairs, Qin Mo saw Xu Xinuo standing by the door and looking at them, with a hint of hope, a hint of worry, and a hint of determination in his eyes. At the moment, her hair is not completely dry, and obvious watermarks can be seen on her clothes, and her white sneakers are slightly muddy, and there is a pitiful weakness in her embarrassment.
Xu Xinuo saw Zhou Yue coming out of the elevator, so he quickly ran through the aisle in front of Zhou Yue to stop his steps and said, "Mr. Zhou, please don't sue my father, he is not in good health." If you go to prison, you probably won't be able to get out. β
Zhou Yue stopped and looked at Xu Xinuo and said helplessly: "Miss Xu, I want you to figure it out, okay?" I didn't mean to put your father in jail, I just recovered my losses through legal means. As a businessman, I'm just talking business. Don't come in the future, it's useless to beg me. β
Xu Xinuo took out a piece of paper from his pocket and handed it to Zhou Yue and said, "I know that it is natural to repay debts. This is an IOU I wrote to you, I don't have any money yet, I will make money to pay you back later. The interest rate is based on the current interest rate of the bank loan. β
Zhou Yue couldn't help but chuckle, this girl is too naΓ―ve and ridiculous. Is she coming back? Let's not talk about the interest rate of 8 million arrears for a year. As an example of a newcomer who has just left school, how many years of work will it take to pay off. Some people are so poor that they can't earn 8 million in their lifetime. And how old can she live? These uncertainties make this transaction more risky.
"Sorry, no. Don't come back in the future, instead of begging me to accept your advice, use this time to think about how to raise money. Zhou Yue walked away and ignored Xu Xinuo.
Zhou Yue's indifference and determination made Xu Xinuo desperate.
Qin Mo saw that the faint light that had just lit up in her eyes dimmed again.
She bowed her head hopelessly, her body languished and decadent, as if she had lost the support of her bones. The family still has a little money. But the money she kept for Xu Jiang's treatment. If the money is used to repay the debt, the debt is only paid a little, and Xu Jiang has no money for treatment.
Looking at Xu Xinuo like this, Qin Mo felt very sad. He himself was puzzled how he could feel such a way about a stranger. He ascribes everything to sympathy.
Zhou Yue saw that Xu Xinuo stopped talking, and hurriedly pulled Qin Mo out.
Sitting in Zhou Yue's car, Qin Mo pretended to be careless and asked, "What happened just now?" β
"I invested in a project at her dad's company, which had recently gone bankrupt due to poor management. My investment is gone. She begged me several times, and I felt cruel to seeing her so pitiful. "It's not what a businessman should be.
Qin Mo secretly thought in his heart, speechless all the way.
Qin's mother has been urging him to get married and have children for the past two years. He was only 27 years old, and it seemed too early to get married. Over the years, he has also seen many people who deliberately approached him because of his family background, some are beautiful, and some are average. They're all smart and scheming. He saw through these hypocrites with impure motives. So I don't want to get married yet.
He is now young, has a successful career, and is living a good life. Why rush to get married? Just let it be. He also did not say that he would not get married or have children. He really didn't understand his mother's anxiety.
Qin's mother saw that many of her friends were hugging their grandchildren. Qin Mo has rarely been at home these years, and the old lady has become an empty nester at home. Raising flowers and planting grass every day, life is leisurely and comfortable, but it is really boring. watched the friends around him hug their grandchildren one after another. The old lady also began to get anxious. So she urged Qin Mo to get married and have children, and every time Qin Mo went back, she talked about the benefits of getting married and having children in Qin Mo's ear. Getting married and having children seems to be a good and harmless thing.
Qin Mo knew that the only and effective way to get Qin's mother to stop chattering was to give her a grandson. Everything else is palliative.
He couldn't help but think of the scene where he saw Xu Xinuo today, and a not very gentlemanly thought arose in his heart.
Xu Xinuo walked out of the office building disappointed, and the rain had stopped. She looked at the thin vapor that filled the air and walked aimlessly down the street.
8 million was not a big number for her before, but now it is astronomical. It was at this moment that she truly realized her insignificance, insignificance. Without her father's protection, she seems to have lost everything, just like a person whose hands and feet have been cut off and can't do anything, can't do anything. She also truly understands what it means to be cornered, and feels powerless about fate and the status quo.
She was able to understand Zhou Yue's thoughts. She didn't have much confidence in herself either. Without a wealthy family, she is ordinary and ordinary, relying on her meager salary every month, when will she be able to get eight million.
Xu Jiang has protected her well over the years. She just needs to go to school and live well. In college, she chose a major that burns money but is difficult to make money, and originally planned to write and draw without desire, travel everywhere, but now it is difficult to even find a job.
Xu Xinuo felt like he was standing on a cliff, with no way in and no way out. But she couldn't stop. Dad suffered a stroke and is still in the hospital.
Thinking of everything his father has done for him over the years, Xu Xinuo couldn't help but burst into tears.
