Chapter 97 – No More Money To Spend (没钱花了)

Goosebumps appeared on Qiao Hongye’s skin as she saw Cao Xing’s gaze fill with panic.

Even though she was very familiar with Cao Xing, but knowing someone was stalking her made her feel unsafe. Also … it was a little perverted! (not necessarily sexual)

“Why are you looking at me like that? Why don’t you think about how it was all because of you that I fell into this kind of a predicament. If I were to get caught, do you think your reputation would still remain innocent ?” Cao Xing grunted, his face filled cold fury revealing his true nature and fitting in with his rebellious blonde hair.

Qiao Hongye’s opinion of Cao Xing was that he was utterly disgusting, but his words were not wrong. She truly could not do anything about him.

Qiao Hongye and Cao Xing were both people from Ning Xiang District. Once in middle school, she was being harassed by other people and Cao Xing gave her a helping hand. From then onwards, they have always kept in contact. In the past, she made Cao Xing send someone to rob Jing Yunzhao or scare her once in awhile. After Jing Yunzhao entered high school, she had then asked Cao Xing to help spread rumors, but she did not expect to fall for Jing Yunzhao’s trap.

Qiao Hongye sighed and tried her best to control her uncontrollable beating heart. “What do you want?”

“I don’t have money, lend me some first,” Cao Xing declared.

Actually, Cao Xing’s looks were not bad, but it was a common face. The only thing that would leave a deep impression would be his ear studs and his mop of blonde hair.

Qiao Hongye was trembling with fury as she retorted, “I’m still a student, where would I get the money?!”

Qiao Hongye truly was not lying. In the past when Ye Qin was still alive, she had spoiled Qiao Hongye to death. She never lacked the pocket money to spend, especially when she got into high school. Where others received at most about three to four hundred yuan every month, she would receive a sum amounting close to a thousand yuan.

However, Ye Qin has passed away. Qiao Weimin was a man, his treatment towards his daughter was incomparable to Ye Qin’s. Her allowance had already been cut down to five hundred and while it may seem like a lot to others, to Qiao Hongye, there were many things she wanted to buy but could not afford.

(E/N: We of ET are just directly translating this from the text and have our separate opinions on other fathers’ treatment to their daughters.)

“You have no money? Who do you think you’re trying to bluff? Your dad may not be some big shot, but he still invested in a small factory. The yearly revenue should not be too shabby. Plus, you’re your family’s princess. You would have no money? If you were Jing Yunzhao, then I would definitely believe you, but you are Qiao Hongye. Even if you really have no money, you would still have all sorts of methods to get some.” Cao Xing argued with absolute confidence.

He had known Qiao Hongye for a few years already. He knew that her heart was darker than coal.

Qiao Hongye felt indignant and couldn’t help but flare up a bit of her little temper. “Cao Xing! You think too highly of me! It’s not like you don’t know that my mom just passed away, plus my dad’s character is so selfish, why would he give a damn about me? The money at home has also been kept and hidden by my dad, even if I want to steal, I still wouldn’t be able to get any!”

“Anyway I don’t care, my house is under the surveillance of Hua Zei. That guy is more ruthless than me. I can’t afford to offend him now. If you don’t help me, then I can only stay at the police station. At least there, I would still have food and water right?” Cao Xing threatened.

Qiao Hongye’s eyes turned red.

That’s right, she couldn’t resist his threats. She couldn’t allow Cao Xing to go to jail, otherwise, her reputation would be ruined. Even though she had turned Jing Yunzhao into the scurrying mouse of the school, but it did not mean that she would be willing to lead the same life as her.

“I… I do have a method, as long as you’re willing…” Qiao Hongye pondered for a while before looking up excitedly at Cao Xing. She gathered her courage and told him, “Jing Yunzhao has money.”

“Ah! Qiao Hongye, do you think I am a fool!?” Cao Xing chuckled at how stupid of a suggestion she had given. If the opposite party were not Qiao Hongye, he would have already slapped her.

“I don’t! Listen to me and you’ll understand!” Qiao Hongye struggled with a red face.
