Hmph! It was his own volition, I never asked him to support me.
You Cousin, I beg you, please lend me another 10,000 Yuan. Ill take on a
few more odd jobs, and return the money to you as soon as I can. Impossible!
Cousin
Dont come to me for loans anymore. You might as well not exist to me, you disgrace of a cousin! Bad luck!
Having spoken in such firm terms, Little Zhou leaves without looking back, her high heels clicking on the ground.
Cousin
Lin Ranzhu tries to chase her down, but halts after a couple of steps. Shaking her head, she trudges towards the restaurant, dropping her gaze and with a lack of spirit.
Thats when Gu Li steps out from the corner, thoughtfully watching Lin Ranzhus retreating figure.
The girl who had just slapped someone is familiar to her its Cheng Yings assistant, Little Zhou
It seems that pot of chrysanthemum tea really should bear suspicion.
Narrowing her eyes, Gu Li decisively strides toward the restaurant, calling out to Lin Ranzhu, Wait a moment
Caught up worrying about her fathers medical expenses, Lin Ranzhu is surprised to hear someone calling her name from behind.
She turns around to find Gu Li, and her face inadvertently changes. You
Just by the look in her eyes, Gu Li knows she has guessed correctly.
With a friendly smile, she says, Dont be nervous. Although you spiked the chrysanthemum tea, you realized your wrongs and didnt let me drink it. Therefore, I wont hold you responsible.
No, youve got it all wrong. I didnt do that.
Lin Ranzhu instinctively denies it, but upon seeing the sincerity in Gu Lis eyes, guilt washes over her. She lowers her head in apology. Im sorry.
Its okay. As I said before, Im not going to pursue this matter.
Gu Li is extraordinarily gracious.
Upon hearing these words, Lin Ranzhu seems less panicked. So why did you call me over?
I heard your conversation with that girl just now. Did she give you the drug?
Gu Li comes straight to the point.
Yes.
Lin Ranzhu nods and confirms, But I disposed of all the powders. Even if you want revenge, theres no evidence left.
At this point, she cant help feeling a pang of sympathy and pleads on Little Zhous behalf. I implore you to be gracious and let this pass. Can you do that? She wouldnt lend you money, yet you still defend her?
Regardless, she is still my cousin. Miss, please concede as a favour to me.
Gu Li:
The actual reason for her seeking Lin Ranzhu wasnt for revenge on Little Zhou. After all, as mentioned before, all the evidence has been destroyed. Plus, she didnt drink the chrysanthemum tea, so she cant prove the incident to Little Zhou or her behind-the-scenes boss.
Your father is ill, youre working a few jobs. Is it to pay for his medical expenses?
Gu Li directly asks the question.
Lin Ranzhu is taken aback, but she quickly realises that since Gu Li overheard her conversation with her cousin, its not surprising that she knows about her financial situation. She lightly nods, Yes, Im still short of 10,000 yuan.
How old are you?
Gu Li regards her curiously.
The girl is strikingly beautiful and looks quite young. Could she possibly be underaged?
Sure enough, Lin Ranzhu responds with, 16 years old.
Gu Li: Where is your family?
My mother left my father and me when I was very little, and ran off with someone else. My father raised me all by himself. After my aunt got divorced, both she and my uncle didnt want my cousin, so my father started caring for her too
Perhaps Lin Ranzhu finds Gu Li trustworthy, so she does not hide the details of her life from her.
Upon hearing her story, Gu Li cant help but feel a pang of sympathy.
A little girl of 16, having to work a few jobs a day to support her family. It surely isnt easy.
Let me help you..
