NovelEnglishChapter 37
Qiao Mu came back to her senses when Chi Xia nudged her arm.
Chi Xia glared at her, “What are you thinking? What did you do when you headed out today? Did you even attempt to think of a solution about the money?”
Qiao Mu shook her head, “I’ve already tried my best. Let’s forget about it, I’m not going to make things difficult for myself any longer.”
Chi Xia looked at her and said nothing.
…..
The next morning.

“There’s eighty thousand RMB in this card. Gu Cheng asked me to pass this to you. He’s also tight in his fundings because he’s still tied up with his investment overseas, but he can manage a couple dozen thousand RMB for you. Just take the money to handle your emergency.” Chi Xia smiled.
Qiao Mu widened her eyes in shock, “You asked for money from Gu Cheng because of me? No, I can’t take this money. Quickly return the money to him!”
Chi Xia placed the card into Qiao Mu’s palm, “Just take it. I borrowed this from him, it’s not like I’m not paying him back. Besides, I’m his future wife. He won’t fight me over this small amount. Alright, I know you feel bad if you don’t care about that person. Quickly hand this money to her then.”
Qiao Mu felt a huge lump in her throat as she hugged Chi Xia, “Xia Xia, you’re really the best. You’re so selfless that I almost think that I’m your true love instead of him.”
Chi Xia fiercely rolled her eyes at Qiao Mu and pushed her aside, “What selfless act? This loan comes with an interest. Even if you have to prostitute yourself, you’ll still have to pay me back in the future!”
Qiao Mu gripped the card in her palm, feeling upset. Chi Xia had already given her fifty thousand RMB last time. She could never fully repay this friend in her lifetime.
Qiao Mu placed the card into her bag and unintentionally saw the shopping card she had gotten from Li Yan. Her eyes were bright as she stared at Chi Xia, “Xia Xia, let me pay you the interest in advance!”
…..
That morning, Qiao Mu went to the bank to transfer the money to Zhoue Jieru. One notification later, Zhou Jieru replied that the amount was rather lacking, but the money could still last her for a while.
After that, Qiao Mu and Chi Xia had lunch outside campus before dropping by a shopping mall that sold luxury goods.
The shopping mall was infamous for a reason. Any item sold here cost at least five figures. Any random fabric that could be called clothing could cost a few dozen thousand RMB, and it was very normal for a jacket to be priced a couple hundred thousand RMB.
Chi Xia stared at that shopping card and could not believe her eyes, “Mu Mu, say it again. Where did you get this card from?”
Qiao Mu replied, “My uncle gave this to me.”
“Uncle? Your stepmother’s younger brother? Why did he want to give you such an expensive shopping card? Don’t tell me that old man is into you?”
Ahem…

Was Li Yan old? Although he was older than her by ten years, he could still be considered young, right?
Qiao Mu said helplessly, “You’re thinking too much. Anyway, just choose a gift! I’m paying the interest in advance!”
Interest? Chi Xia was left speechless. Any single item around here could already clear Qiao Mu’s debt.
“Mu Mu, since your uncle is so rich, wouldn’t your troubles be solved in no time if he simply gave you some money?”
“My uncle’s not a generous person. This card was given to him by someone else. It’s free, that’s why he gave it to me.”
Chi Xia also stopped asking her questions. It was a rare opportunity for her to shop in a large shopping mall. The two of them strolled on all floors until finally Chi Xia found herself drawn to a backpack.
The price was forty-nine thousand RMB. Chi Xia glanced at Qiao Mu in uncertainty, “Is this really just the interest? If I want this bag, you won’t use this as an excuse to not return the money to me, right?”
“Can you be more dignified? Where’s the generosity you had when you lent me the money?”
Chi Xia clenched her teeth and made her decision, “Alright, I want it!”
After that, Qiao Mu swiped the card to pay the bill.
