Chapter 54 Current Boyfriend and Ex-Girlfriend
Li Xiaoyao stood in the restroom, peeing while calling Zhao Si.
At that moment, Li Xiaoyao could only think of Zhao Si.
Actually, Li Xiaoyao felt quite depressed. He truly had never thought that one day he would lose so much face over money, having to humbly ask someone for a loan.
Although, if he just opened his mouth, Zhao Si would definitely send the money over without a second word, but as soon as he opened his mouth to borrow money, he would owe Zhao Si a favor.
However, Li Xiaoyao really had no other option at this point—screw it, he thought, I'll just owe him a favor. With the incident involving Tang Tiantian last night, Hu Zhi had already offended him; even if Zhao Si didn't ask for his help, he planned to deal with Hu Zhi.
Zhao Si had a habit of practicing his punches every morning. He had just finished a set of punches when he received Li Xiaoyao's call.
"Hello, little bro, why think of calling me early in the morning?" Zhao Si said with a chuckle, though he felt a little excited inside. Could it be that Li Xiaoyao had made a decision? Was he ready to help him take down Hu Zhi?
Li Xiaoyao said, "Brother Si, I need your help with something."
Zhao Si was taken aback for a moment, then laughingly said, "Between brothers, there's no bother or not. Just say what you need. If I can help, I will; if I can't, I'll find a way."
If you asked Li Xiaoyao what he liked best about Zhao Si, it was definitely the strong aura of the jianghu that Zhao Si carried, which especially appealed to Li Xiaoyao.
"I'm a bit tight on cash. Could you lend me some money?" Li Xiaoyao said directly without caring about losing face.
So it was about borrowing money. Zhao Si breathed a sigh of relief; he had indeed feared that Li Xiaoyao had encountered some serious trouble.
"Little bro, let's not talk about borrowing or not between us. Just tell me how much you need, and I'll have someone send it to you right away," Zhao Si declared generously.
"One hundred thousand will do. If it's convenient, just transfer it directly to my bank card."
"Fine, then send me your card number in a bit, and I'll have someone make the transfer immediately. It'll definitely be in your account within ten minutes."
Whether Zhao Si was intentionally trying to win over Li Xiaoyao or not, Li Xiaoyao certainly couldn't pretend not to see this favor. Moreover, at Lin Yuanyuan's birthday party last night, Zhao Si had also given him a hundred thousand in cash. Together, he owed Zhao Si a total of two hundred thousand now.
For someone he had met less than three times, lending him two hundred thousand showed that Zhao Si was a man of great boldness.
"Brother Si, if you have time tonight, let's go out for a drink," said Li Xiaoyao.
He had decided that tonight, he would clarify the matters regarding the redistribution of benefits in San Tiao Alley after getting rid of Hu Zhi.
Zhao Si naturally understood the implication in Li Xiaoyao's words. He was overjoyed; his two hundred thousand had finally paid off.
"If little bro is treating, I'll definitely have time. Let's meet at the bar. Call me when you arrive," Zhao Si hung up the phone happily.
Putting away his phone, Li Xiaoyao immediately sent the bank card number that Tang Tiantian had given him. In just a few minutes, he received a text message from Zhao Si with just four brief words: "Money has been transferred."
Meanwhile, outside, Tang Youde had finished trying on his clothes. The outfit fit well, giving him the refined air of a noble son. It must be said that the Tang siblings truly had good genes. With their looks and figures, if thrown into the entertainment industry, they would absolutely be welcomed as fresh young celebrities.
The clothing salesgirl asked with a smile, "Sir, are you satisfied with this outfit?"
Tang Youde nodded, not uttering a word.
He was certainly satisfied, but the price was just too high. When he was secretly changing clothes inside, he sneaked a peek at the tag—the total for the clothes, trousers, and shoes came to more than ten thousand yuan.
For Tang Youde, clothing at this price point was simply unimaginable in his everyday life. In his opinion, as long as clothes were wearable, that was enough. There was no need to spend so much money on a few pieces of fabric.
Li Xiaoyao hadn't come back yet, and this was Tang Youde's first time entering such an upscale mall. He felt somewhat out of place and didn't know what to say.
The salesgirl, keenly observing his behavior, thought to herself, could he be a broke guy who tries on clothes without buying?
Just then, another couple came into the store.
And what a coincidence it was—the couple was known to Tang Youde.
The woman, named Wu Yuan, was Tang Youde's girlfriend, or to be precise, his ex-girlfriend.
The man was called Zhang Daneng, a rich second-generation, and was Wu Yuan's current boyfriend.
Wu Yuan held Zhang Daneng's arm, resting her head on his shoulder, looking the very picture of a doting girlfriend.
As soon as they entered the store, Wu Yuan noticed Tang Youde. She was surprised and hadn't expected to encounter Tang Youde in such a high-end mall.
Zhang Daneng also recognized Tang Youde. To win over Wu Yuan, he had done his homework well and naturally knew that the man before him was Wu Yuan's ex-boyfriend.
Zhang Daneng hadn't expected to run into his current girlfriend's ex the day after stealing her from someone else—the surprises of life were truly everywhere.
Wu Yuan frowned at Tang Youde, saying, "Tang Youde, what's the point? We've already broken up. Why are you still following me?"
Zhang Daneng looked at Tang Youde with a mockingly smile, "Yo, Tang classmate, feeling fancy today, visiting such a high-end place to shop? A single piece of clothing here is worth your whole year's tuition, isn't it?"
Tang Youde's face turned from green to white. He had just been considering whether or not to greet Wu Yuan, but unexpectedly, this was how she spoke to him.
Upon hearing Zhang Daneng's words, the salesgirl frowned immediately. Just as she had suspected, this man was a broke guy who couldn't afford the clothes. She regretted taking the time to carefully pick out and coordinate his outfit, all for nothing.
Zhang Daneng placed his right hand on Wu Yuan's waist, caressing it brazenly and said with disdain, "Yuanyuan, you really should see this clearly. Your ex-boyfriend here is just a country bumpkin. No matter how hard he tries, he'll never be able to afford a set of clothes here. If you had stuck with him, imagine the hardships you'd have faced."
Wu Yuan twisted her waist coyly, "I know, that's why I broke up with him."
Zhang Daneng slapped her bottom and chuckled, "I rescued you from his clutches; shouldn't you properly thank me tonight?"
Her cheeks blushing, Wu Yuan whispered, "How do you want me to thank you?"
With a triumphant gaze, Zhang Daneng gave an angry Tang Youde a glance, "Let's go to the Hilton tonight, book a room, and discuss how you'll thank me." Chapter Find:
Wu Yuan playfully slapped his chest, "Stop it."
"Youde, how does the suit fit?" Just then, Li Xiaoyao's voice came from behind.
