Chapter 25: Back to Class
Fu Qingrui drove his black Audi to find Kong Yiyue triumphantly. When he saw her near Qinglin High School, Fu Qingrui was a little surprised, “Kong Yiyue, why do I feel like you're having a miserable time?”
Kong Yiyue had been busy taking care of Kong Jian in the past few months, and she had lost a lot of weight and looked haggard. Also, because the summer clothes were thin, she looked a whole size smaller.
Kong Yiyue didn't care about this question, and voluntarily opened his car door and sat in: “Aren't you happier when I'm not doing well?”
Fu Qingrui smiled at her words: “That's true!”
Kong Yiyue told him the truth: “My family has an emergency and needs a sum of money. Can you convince Fu Jinting to lend it to me?”
Borrow money?
Fu Qingrui raised his eyebrows and looked at her: “If you want to borrow money, why don't you go borrow it from him yourself!”
Kong Yiyue lowered her eyes: “He won't see me at all.”
“Well, my brother seems to hate you quite a bit!” Fu Qingrui said gloatingly: “What will happen if you can't borrow money?” He originally wanted to ask: “Will someone die?” But seeing that Kong Yiyue had no smile on her face, he hid these words.
Kong Yiyue said helplessly: “I really don't seem to be able to get your brother to like me.”
Fu Qingrui nodded in agreement: “Fu Jinting is so picky, not everyone can get into his eyes!”
Kong Yiyue didn't want to talk about this issue in depth, and asked Fu Qingrui: “Can you lend me 500,000?”
Fu Qingrui frowned and asked: “What do you want such a large sum of money for?”
Kong Yiyue answered simply: “To pay off debts.”
“What kind of thing requires so much debt?” A high school student, opening her mouth and asking for 500,000, although this amount of money was nothing in Fu Qingrui's eyes, it was a bit strange for an ordinary student like Kong Yiyue.
Kong Yiyue didn't want to hide it from Fu Qingrui, “My dad was addicted to gambling and owed it.”
“Why do you have to borrow money to pay off the money your dad owes?” Fu Qingrui looked down on such people.
Kong Yiyue, who had been looking down slightly, tugged at the corner of her mouth, raised her eyes to look at him, and said slowly: “He can't pay it back, because - he passed away.” Her voice was very soft, but Fu Qingrui's eyes were full of shock after hearing this.
Kong Yiyue continued: “I'm also at the end of my rope, otherwise I wouldn't have opened my mouth. I thought Fu Jinting would lend it to me, but his refusal reminded me that he and I are currently not relatives, and he doesn't want to have any connection between us because of money. I'm afraid I can't convince him, but I don't have any other friends. Fu Qingrui, if you are willing to help me in my urgent need, I will be very grateful.”
Fu Qingrui wanted to say: “What's the use of your gratitude to me!”
Then he thought of something and asked: “Even a loan with high interest is no problem, right? Kong Yiyue.”
Kong Yiyue was pleasantly surprised, “Are you really willing to lend it to me?”
Fu Qingrui nodded, his fingers on the steering wheel: “It's not impossible.”
Kong Yiyue said happily: “Then let's agree on three things.”
Fu Qingrui had no objection. 500,000 was not worth mentioning to him at all. In a few years, he could get a high amount of interest. This business only made money and didn't lose money.
Kong Yiyue's only request was: regardless of interest or principal, she needed to wait until after she graduated from college before starting to repay in installments.
Fu Qingrui nodded in agreement.
Kong Yiyue asked him what he wanted. Fu Qingrui said: “Well, I can't think of it for the time being. I'll keep it for later. When I think of it, I'll bring it up and you can complete it.”
Just in case, Kong Yiyue still asked: “It won't be some inhumane request, right?”
Fu Qingrui was dissatisfied: “Am I that kind of person?”
Kong Yiyue said directly: “Doesn't look like a good person!”
Fu Qingrui became anxious, “I'm not a good person and I'm still lending you money! My brother won't lend you a dime, why don't you say he's a bad person!”
Kong Yiyue didn't object: “He's indeed not a good person.”
……
Fu Qingrui drove Kong Yiyue to the station. On the way, he had already asked someone to transfer the money to Kong Yiyue's account. When getting out of the car, Kong Yiyue thanked Fu Qingrui: “Thank you, I won't forget your great kindness!”
Fu Qingrui said indifferently: “Remember to pay back the money and interest!”
Kong Yiyue said solemnly: “That's for sure!”
…
Fu Jinting thought that Kong Yiyue would pester him endlessly, but on the contrary, Kong Yiyue disappeared again after that day.
Fu Qingrui didn't want to tell Fu Jinting about the loan, just assuming that Kong Yiyue had never looked for him at all.
In mid-June of the second semester of the second year of high school, Kong Yiyue finally returned to school.
Yuan Meng was worried that she wouldn't be able to keep up with the final exams, so she gave her all the notes from the entire semester. Kong Yiyue just flipped through them, occasionally copying them symbolically.
After returning to Qinglin City, her original yoga classes and part-time jobs at the educational institution were immediately resumed as usual. Kong Yiyue was busy reading and catching up on homework on weekdays, and busy with part-time yoga practice on weekends.
Time passed busily and peacefully.
However, Yuan Meng felt uncomfortable, because Kong Yiyue, who didn't talk much originally, became even more taciturn after returning this time.
Occasionally chatting with her, there were only a few short sentences and then nothing. She often just smiled, and then remained silent. Such a chat couldn't go on at all!
On the second week of Kong Yiyue's return to school, Yuan Meng asked her, “Kong Yiyue, what's wrong with you?”
Yiyue asked her, “What's wrong?”
Yuan Meng said: “I feel like you've become quiet.”
Kong Yiyue smiled, but the words she said were shocking: “My dad passed away.” It seemed that thousand words were unspoken.
The news of Kong Yiyue's relative's death spread unknowingly in the class, and Yuan Meng repeatedly assured Kong Yiyue that she didn't leak it out. Kong Yiyue just said: “It's okay.”
Lin Anyi walked to her seat on the afternoon of the day he heard the news and asked: “Your dad passed away?”
Although Kong Yiyue knew that he was well-intentioned, she was unwilling to talk to him about this issue at all, “Lin Anyi, thank you, but I hope you don't interfere in my affairs.” No matter how understanding and considerate he was now, he couldn't erase all the grievances of her previous life.
Lin Anyi was embarrassed: “Kong Yiyue, I'm just concerned about you as a classmate, do you have to be so unapproachable?”
“I don't need your concern.” Kong Yiyue rejected Lin Anyi in front of the surrounding students, and everyone was shocked. Did Kong Yiyue really change her temperament because her father passed away?
Fu Jinting heard this news from Zhong Ziyang.
After Zhong Ziyang returned to the classroom from the office, he pulled a chair and sat in front of Fu Jinting and asked him, “Do you know what I just saw?”
Fu Jinting looked at the book and asked, “What?”
Zhong Ziyang said freshly: “Just now I saw a list of poor students in the grade on the desk in the office, and the name of the first person was actually Kong Yiyue! I heard the teachers say that Kong Yiyue's father seems to have passed away last month...”
Fu Jinting heard this and suddenly raised his head, “Kong Yiyue's father passed away?”
“Yes! Kong Yiyue didn't tell you!”
Fu Jinting came back to his senses and said coldly: “She doesn't need to tell me at all!”
Suddenly, he thought of the scene where she suddenly appeared and asked him for 500,000 before. He was only concerned with being angry at the time, but he completely forgot to ask her what she wanted that money for. Was it related to her father's death?
