71: Chapter 71 Wicked people grind themselves!

The Xu family of four looked at each other, exchanging glances, and finally, Xu Shuman broke the silence.

“Dad, Mom, what do we do now?”

“Xu Qianli is clearly serious this time, he’s the Government Office Director, and we’re no match for him, what should we do?”

“Do we really have to pay him back?”

Upon hearing about paying back the money, Li Qiuyue immediately flew off the handle and said resolutely, “No, we can’t pay him back!

Besides, that money has already been used for Qiangqiang’s wedding house.

Where are we supposed to find the money to pay Xu Qianli now?”

“What?

The money was used to buy a house for Qiangqiang?”

Xu Shuman was dumbfounded.

“Mom, Xu Qianli has nearly given me nine hundred thousand over the past few years, plus my salary of two to three hundred thousand, over a million in total, and you used it all to buy a house for Qiangqiang without my consent?”

“You, you’ve really gone too far!”

Xu Shuman was incredibly upset; that was her money, what right did her mother, Li Qiuyue, have to use it to buy a house for Xu Qiangqiang?

Most importantly, without even asking her!

“Qiangqiang is your brother, you only have one brother, shouldn’t you, as his sister, help him out?”

“Other sisters pay outright for their brothers’ houses and cars.

You, on the other hand, are reluctant to part with your money.”

“Let me tell you, the house is already bought, whether you like it or not, you have to.”

“As for Xu Qianli, that money was given to you, it’s not our concern.

If it really goes to court, you’ll have to pay it back yourself.”

“Alright, his dad, Qiangqiang, let’s go and start packing to move home.”

Li Qiuyue shamelessly shifted the blame onto Xu Shuman and abruptly left with her husband and son.

Since there was no hope for Xu Shuman to reconcile with Xu Qianli, and the County Party Secretary’s nephew was afraid to even meet her, there wasn’t really a capable man in Jiang City who would dare to take her, so Li Qiuyue decided to completely burn bridges with her.

Xu Shuman stood there dazed, froze for a long time, and finally burst into tears, squatting down and sobbing loudly.

Her boyfriend, who used to be attentive to every little detail, Xu Qianli, she had pushed away.

Her family, whom she trusted unconditionally, kicked her aside after milking all her money.

What kind of situation was this?

As Xu Shuman was heartbroken and confused, her phone suddenly rang.

It was the head of the County Dance Troupe.

Fighting back tears, she answered the call, and Xu Shuman felt as if struck by thunder.

The County Dance Troupe was going to fire her!

The reason was that her behaviors had tarnished the image of the dance troupe, causing a bad influence.

Unlike many government bodies, the dancers at the County Dance Troupe didn’t have official ranks, and for the head to fire her, it really was as simple as just saying the word.

With no hope of reconciling with Xu Qianli, saddled with a debt of five hundred thousand, stabbed in the back by family, and now losing the job that she had taken pride in at the County Dance Troupe, Xu Shuman couldn’t withstand the blow and fainted on the spot, right there in the County Government Building.

Xu Shuman collapsed under the sun and was quickly discovered; someone immediately notified Xu Qianli.

Initially, he didn’t want to get involved, but not helping would send out a message that he was indifferent.

Reluctantly, Xu Qianli took Xu Shuman to the hospital.

After registration and checks at the hospital, she was finally admitted to a ward and placed on an IV drip.

Before long, Xu Shuman slowly regained consciousness.

Opening her eyes, she found herself in a hospital room with her ex-boyfriend, Xu Qianli, sitting beside the bed.

Seeing Xu Qianli, Xu Shuman’s eyes suddenly sparkled, and disregarding the ongoing IV, she threw herself into his arms.

“Husband, I was wrong; I truly realize my mistake.”

“Please forgive me just this once, I promise I’ll never betray you again, please forgive me just this once…”

Xu Shuman was desperately pleading, tears streaming down her face.

She really regretted breaking up with Xu Qianli during his hardest times.

Facing Xu Shuman’s plea, Xu Qianli pushed her away.

“Xu Shuman, don’t disgust me, you think you’re worthy of asking for my forgiveness?”

“If I hadn’t made a comeback these past few days, regained the position of Government Office Director, and was soon to become the secretary of the new County Magistrate, would you be groveling and begging for my forgiveness?”

“If I were still being trampled underfoot like a few days ago, you probably wouldn’t even spare me a glance, let alone quickly go on a blind date with Secretary Ge’s grandnephew and get yourself a new boyfriend, using the skills I taught you over the past three years to ass-kiss other men!”

“And let me repeat, I’d rather stay single for the rest of my life than ever have you as my girlfriend again!”

Xu Qianli gave a decisive response.

Xu Shuman, this beautiful and sexy woman, now weeping and full of regret down to her bones, was acting this way because he had risen to power again.

Had he still been as incompetent as a few days before, she would not even look at him.

Now she knew she was wrong, regretted it, but it was too late!

Xu Shuman’s face was deathly pale, unable to rebut.

Because she knew, everything Xu Qianli said was true.

She regretted it, but what use was her regret?

She had already deeply hurt Xu Qianli’s heart, and if he didn’t forgive her, what could she do?

“If you don’t forgive me, that’s fine, but what about the 500,000, can you drop it?”

“I don’t want to withhold the money, but I really don’t have any right now.”

“Not just the money you gave me, but also the money I earned, totaling over a million, was all kept with my mom, who behind my back bought an apartment for Qiangqiang.”

“Also, I’m about to be dismissed from the dance troupe.

The troupe leader said my causing trouble at the County Government Building affected them terribly and decided to fire me.”

“In any case, you’re asking for money I can’t provide.”

Xu Shuman gazed at Xu Qianli, hoping he would spare her considering their past relationship.

“No way!”

Xu Qianli refused without a second thought.

“I always said your mom is not trustworthy, and you shouldn’t leave the money in her hands, but you wouldn’t listen.”

“Now look, she’s drained you dry, spent it all on that good-for-nothing Xu Qiangqiang, and you regret it now.”

“I don’t care how, but I need my hard-earned money, and the money my mom intended for my future wife—you must cough it up!”

“If you can produce the money, great; if not, you need to find something else for collateral!”

Xu Qianli glared at Xu Shuman viciously, as if he wanted to devour her.

No return, no money—dream on!

A tear welled up in Xu Shuman’s nose, and she cried again, “I have nothing to give, unless you sell me!”

“Stop crying, who said you have nothing?”

Xu Qianli grabbed Xu Shuman’s chin, making her lift her beautiful face.

“Although you have horrible character, are heartless, cold, and overly utilitarian, you also have merits.”

“Your natural beauty and flexibility are excellent, these three years in bed have been very satisfying for me, your endurance far surpasses other women, making you a natural-born good bed companion.”

“Thinking of being my girlfriend, forget it, but as my plaything, you still qualify.”

“If you agree, you won’t have to repay the money, and I could even make a call to have your troupe leader cancel your dismissal.”

“Of course, this is just my proposal, whether you agree or not is up to you.”
