Chapter 151: Qin Ruoyao, Pay Up
How to repay?
“No, I won’t pay.” Qin Ruoyao shook her head, “All of this was given to me voluntarily! I don’t need to pay it back.”
“Voluntary? It was clearly borrowed from me.”
Luo Yuan chuckled and turned on a recording.
Qin Ruoyao’s sweet voice came out from the recorder.
“Luo Yuan, consider this as money I borrow from you to buy a bracelet. The three million yuan, I’ll pay you back when I have money.”
Similar recordings were played one by one into Qin Ruoyao’s ears.
Qin Ruoyao clenched her fists tightly.
These were just polite words, but Luo Yuan used them as evidence.
Luo Yuan enjoyed watching Qin Ruoyao’s pale face, happily putting the recorder back into his pocket.
“Qin Ruoyao, I suggest you return the money within three days. This will save both of us time, resolve things privately, and won’t affect your reputation, right?”
“Luo Yuan,” Qin Ruoyao said with red eyes, “I really don’t have that much money. Can you let me go?”
“Let you go? Qin Ruoyao, Brother Lin Xuan and I worked hard to design all this. Letting you go, is that possible?” Luo Yuan coldly laughed and asked.
Qin Ruoyao pursed her lips and said, “Luo Yuan, if you let me go, I’ll do anything for you. Aren’t you interested in me? I can be your mistress!”
As long as she doesn’t have to pay back the money, she’s willing to do anything!
“Never, I’d find it disgusting.”
Luo Yuan took a few steps back, like avoiding a plague.
“I’m leaving, you better gather the money.”
“Qin Ruoyao, evil people get their comeuppance, this is your fate.”
He always felt that Brother Lin Xuan’s revenge on Qin Ruoyao wasn’t enough.
Luo Yuan looked at Qin Ruoyao’s soulless appearance, feeling unprecedented relief.
Phew.
Finally got this load off my chest.
Luo Yuan hummed a song and left. Qin Ruoyao fell to the ground, her mind buzzing.
Luo Yuan obviously came here to mess with her. There’s no way he’d let her off without paying back this money.
31 million yuan, this is an astronomical figure.
What should she do?
Qin Ruoyao walked around school like a zombie.
Why did it turn out this way?
In just a few months, she lost everything. Brother Lin Xuan, Lin Li, and Luo Yuan, these men who were once good to her, all left her.
She now carries a huge debt.
It’s changed.
Everything has changed.
Qin Ruoyao always thought her life shouldn’t be like this. She should have successfully married Brother Lin Xuan and still flirted secretly with Lin Li.
She would continue to be admired, not like now where almost everyone curses her for being disgusting and shameless.
“Mom.”
Qin Ruoyao returned home and cried hugging Mother Qin’s waist.
She told Mother Qin everything.
Mother Qin immediately consulted a lawyer. After the lawyer asked several questions, they concluded that Qin Ruoyao indeed needs to compensate this amount.
Even though Mother Qin was reluctant to part with this money, she still took out all her savings to compensate Luo Yuan.
Many of Qin Ruoyao’s jewelry was also sold.
Their place of residence was a 200 square meter apartment in a high-end neighborhood, which they rented.
This incident drained all their savings.
They could only move out of the big apartment.
Qin Ruoyao’s condition was poor, and Mother Qin worried that if this continued, Qin Ruoyao might become depressed, so she arranged for Qin Ruoyao to take a leave of absence.
—
On Shen Qianqian’s side.
Shen Father has always disagreed with her engagement to Brother Lin Xuan. Shen Qianqian, in a fit of temper, resisted by refusing food and drink.
Shen Qianqian held out for over two days until she finally couldn’t take it anymore and fainted from hunger.
Luo Yuan explained things so clearly, there’s no way Qin Ruoyao wouldn’t believe it now. It was indeed done by Luo Yuan.
“Where’s Brother Lin Xuan? Did he participate?” Qin Ruoyao’s voice trembled. Images from the birthday banquet flashed through her mind—Brother Lin Xuan’s handsome face with a mocking smile.
“Yes, Brother Lin Xuan and I collaborated. I handled the videos, and Brother Lin Xuan handled the exposure.” Luo Yuan replied indifferently.
“Ahhh—”
Qin Ruoyao collapsed on the ground, covering her head in despair.
Turns out, she was a pawn used from start to finish—not just by Lin Li, but also by Brother Lin Xuan and Luo Yuan. Everyone was using her!
How ironic.
She thought she had gained the love of countless men, but in reality, Lin Li used her against Brother Lin Xuan, while Brother Lin Xuan and Luo Yuan retaliated against her.
“Waaaaaah…”
Qin Ruoyao sobbed. Why did heaven treat her like this? Lifting her up high just to throw her down so cruelly.
“Oh, Qin Ruoyao, there’s one more thing I must tell you.”
Luo Yuan gave a malicious laugh. “Actually, my family never got its money back. We’re still bankrupt, and I have no money. Do you know where the money I spent on you came from?”
Qin Ruoyao’s mind slowly processed the information.
Suddenly, her emotions became agitated. “It was Brother Lin Xuan, right? Brother Lin Xuan gave it, didn’t he?”
No, Brother Lin Xuan hated her so much that he’d rather completely offend his parents than spare her reputation. How could Brother Lin Xuan give her so much money?
“That’s right, it was Brother Lin Xuan’s money.” Luo Yuan confirmed.
It really was him!
“Luo Yuan.” Qin Ruoyao stood up from the ground, her face pale as she grabbed Luo Yuan’s arm. “Why did you and Brother Lin Xuan give me so much money? What are you planning to do?”
Luo Yuan’s gaze coldly stared at Qin Ruoyao’s hand.
Qin Ruoyao gritted her teeth and let go.
Luo Yuan then sneered and spoke, “Let me tell you why. Spending that money on you caused us no loss because most of it, you’ll have to pay back.”
Most times, he transferred money to Qin Ruoyao, letting her settle the bills herself.
Brother Lin Xuan told him how to ensure Qin Ruoyao must return the money.
He mostly followed Brother Lin Xuan’s plan when spending money on Qin Ruoyao.
“I calculated it. You owe 31 million yuan. I’ll give you three days to gather the money. Otherwise, I’ll sue you. If the label of ‘non-repayment’ gets added to you, your reputation will worsen even more.” Luo Yuan casually stated.
“Here’s the list.”
Luo Yuan placed a piece of paper in Qin Ruoyao’s hand.
The paper was filled with rows of numbers detailing all the transfers and purchases Luo Yuan made for her.
Qin Ruoyao stood frozen, her limbs cold, her face deathly pale.
So, this was the purpose…
During this period, Luo Yuan led her to spend extravagantly.
He even transferred a large sum of money to her.
Whenever they ate or consumed together, Luo Yuan never paid; she always did.
They were waiting for this moment!
She currently only has ten thousand yuan left.
An astronomical figure like 31 million yuan…
