Chapter 363: Qin Huairu, Is Shazhu a Banker?

~7 min read 1,203 words

Hearing Liu Lan's words, Qin Huairu couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.

Liu Lan continued, "Actually, you and Shazhu have been together for so many years; outsiders don't understand that."

"I was just speaking offhand, teasing you, ah."

"Only you two know the nature of your relationship."

"But what I can tell you now is that, uh, Shazhu hasn't been with our boss at all."

"At least not yet."

"If you truly like Shazhu, then hold on tighter, ah."

Qin Huairu finally broke into a smile.

Liu Lan: "Actually, you and Shazhu, I think Shazhu is more suitable with our boss."

"But that's your business, so I won't meddle any further."

"I can only tell you what I know."

Qin Huairu thought for a moment and said, "Alright, I won't say any more."

"I came to you today to ask you to tell Shazhu for me."

"To have him go home tonight and bring some money..."

Hearing that, Liu Lan couldn't help but interrupt;

"You want to ask Shazhu for money?"

"No, Qin Huairu, I heard Shazhu say he gave all his salary to you earlier."

"You didn't tell him, and you used his money for a business that ended up failing—did that really happen?"

Qin Huairu: "It did happen, but I was just trying to earn a bit more."

"I didn't expect it to turn out like this."

Liu Lan: "I'm not blaming you, but if that's really how it was, then it's truly your fault."

"Anyway, that's Shazhu's money, right?"

"If you're going to spend it somewhere, you should tell Shazhu, right?"

"Now, without telling him, you've completely lost all of Shazhu's money."

"You even let him borrow twenty thousand from us, and I heard he also advanced two thousand of his salary to your daughter."

"Now you still have him carry money—no, I just want to ask you, is Shazhu a banker?"

"Why do you always have Shazhu carry money?"

Qin Huairu said with a dejected expression, "Liu Lan, what good could I say about you?"

"You just love meddling in other people's business."

"Something big happened in our courtyard."

"If I don't help, I can't feel at ease."

Liu Lan smiled, "I see."

"Using Shazhu's money to do good, huh?"

"I just wanted to ask you again, you always tell Shazhu to take money—does Shazhu work at a bank?"

Qin Huairu: "Liu Lan, you really interfere too much."

"I already said, Shazhu is very caring and kind."

"Moreover, the situation isn't as you think; Shazhu also agreed to help the old men and women in the courtyard."

Liu Lan: "Shazhu's willingness to help is Shazhu's own business."

"You can't ask Shazhu to carry money."

"And you say I love meddling in other people's affairs."

"That's not a trivial matter."

"You have Shazhu carry money, but where does Shazhu have any money now?"

"He can only borrow from us."

"Do you think this has anything to do with us?"

Qin Huairu's expression darkened, and she said irritably:

"Anyway, I've already told you, do as you wish."

"If you want to pass a message through me, do it; if not, don't."

【48】 "I'm leaving."

Qin Huairu said with a gloomy face, "Liu Lan, what good can I say about you?"

Having said that, Qin Huairu turned and left.

That made Liu Lan so angry he couldn't vent his fury anywhere.

Pointing at Qin Huairu, he muttered, "What kind of person is this!"

"That's really over the line!"

"You still want me to bring you me? Dream on."

Evening.

Shazhu walked up to the busy Liu Lan and asked:

"Liu Lan, have you prepared that dish for me?"

Liu Lan: "It's been prepared for a long time."

"It's placed at the entrance."

"Don't worry, would I dare not do your task well?"

Shazhu thought for a moment and asked:

Have you left?

Liu Lan: "What?"

Shazhu: "Nonsense."

Of course it's our boss.

Liu Lan: "Oh, she's still in the office; I just went out."

I don't know what's wrong with her today.

She's been sitting in the office the whole time, hasn't come out.

Shazhu.....

Having said that, Liu Lan didn't continue.

Shazhu asked: "Go on, what's the matter?"

Liu Lan: "Oh, it's nothing, nothing."

Liu Lan originally wanted to pass a message to Qin Huairu, but after hesitating a bit, she ultimately decided not to say it.

In her view, Qin Huairu was too much.

If she passed the message, Shazhu would definitely come to borrow money from her again.

As Shazhu was about to leave, Liu Lan suddenly spoke up again:

"Shazhu, wait, can I leave early today?"

"My second son brought his partner home today."

Shazhu nodded and said: "Alright, hurry back then."

Liu Lan: "Thanks."

Evening.

Zhongyuan.

Everyone gathered around the table to eat.

Yan Bu Gui was also there.

Not long after, Yan Jiecheng and Yu Li walked over.

Xiao Dang quickly looked at Yan Bu Gui and said:

"Third Grandfather, your eldest son and his wife have come."

"Guess what he'll say?"

Having said that, imitating Yan Jiecheng's tone, she continued:

"Dad, we're short on money."

Yan Jiecheng didn't hear Xiao Dang's words.

He and Yu Li went straight to Yan Bu Gui's side and said:

"Dad, we're a bit short on money."

Upon saying that.

Everyone laughed out loud.

Yan Bu Gui's expression stalled, then he pointed his chopsticks at Xiao Dang.

Yan Jiecheng froze, then said: "Xiao Dang, you misunderstood my meaning."

"We're not refusing to pay for Mother's medical treatment."

"But the person who contracted our restaurant is unwilling to give us an advance payment for next year's contract fee."

"He said business isn't good, and he doesn't know yet whether he'll continue the contract next year."

"He also said an advance is possible, but interest would be charged at usury rates."

"That's really not worth it."

"We have no choice either."

Xiao Dang sneered: "Then borrowing money from our family without interest is especially a good deal, right?"

Yan Jiecheng said somewhat unhappily: "Xiao Dang, it's not your place to say that."

"You're a junior, you know?"

"Besides, this money belongs to Shazhu."

"If Shazhu says so, I'll accept it anyway."

"But for you, a junior, to speak to me like this, aren't you being too disrespectful to your elders?"

Jia Zhangshi said sarcastically: "That also depends on whether you're worthy of respect."

Yan Jiecheng frowned, opened his mouth, wanting to say something but ended up saying nothing.

He was afraid of angering Jia Zhangshi.

Jia Zhangshi is an expert at throwing tantrums.

He dare not provoke her.

Jia Zhangshi then said: "What are you saying about Shazhu's money? Is it Shazhu giving it to you?"

"It's Qin Huairu who gave it to you; you have to repay it, repay Qin Huairu, understand?"

Yu Li: "Bang Geng's grandmother, we all know that."

"Whoever gives us money, we'll repay them when the time comes."

Upon hearing that, Qin Huairu happily said: "It's fine; your family is also having a tough time right now."

"Although our family is also struggling now, since we've lent you the money, we won't pressure you."

"Just repay a little bit at a time, that's fine."
