Xu Lu thought she had misheard and stared blankly at Yan Dongxu.
"What are you staring for? I won't lend you the money if you don't give me your card number."
"Why are you helping me?"
"What, do I need to give you a reason for lending you money?" Yan Dongxu felt it was funny.
"If you don't explain clearly, I can't borrow this money." Xu Lu said directly.
"You're very strange. You urgently need money, I take the initiative to help you, and you still ask me for a reason, otherwise you won't accept it. You make me feel very cheap."
"Alright, I'll do it because you look good, okay?"
"Besides, this is money I'm lending you, not giving you."
"You have to give me an IOU, with interest at the bank rate."
"Repaid within ten years, otherwise it will become a high-interest loan. Does this make you feel more at ease?"
After a burst of output from Yan Dongxu, he actually made Xu Lu, who had been crying just now, laugh.
"Ten years? Are you serious? Then I'll pay you back on the last day of those ten years."
Yan Dongxu snorted, "You're really a white-eyed wolf. You shouldn't expect sympathy. Hurry up and tell me your card number."
Xu Lu was in no hurry to give him her card number, but instead took him to a cafe.
She borrowed paper and pen to handwrite an IOU.
She also recorded a video of herself reading the IOU and sent it to Yan Dongxu.
"Tsk, lawyers are really meticulous. Keeping up with the times! From now on, these are all evidence."
Yan Dongxu played Xu Lu's video on repeat.
Listening to it again and again gave him pleasure, making him feel the money was worth lending.
Xu Lu angrily rolled her eyes, "Do you like watching the video that much?"
"I like it, I like it. Mainly because the woman is beautiful." Yan Dongxu bragged.
Slap!
Xu Lu slapped her bank card down on the table and pushed it over.
"Transfer the money. This video is worth 500,000. When you have nothing to do you should watch it a few more times."
Yan Dongxu immediately lost interest.
"Are all lawyers' mouths this vicious? I was helping you, okay? Let me brag a little, could it kill you?"
Speaking, he transferred the money to Xu Lu.
Ding Ling!
Xu Lu immediately received a text message about the transfer on her phone.
Looking at the string of numbers in the message, she couldn't help but feel emotional: "Seeing your casual appearance, you're quite rich."
Yan Dongxu grinned, "It's just hard-earned money. If you don't want to pay it back, that's fine too. We can just consider it a bride price and go straight to the civil affairs bureau to get our license."
"Peh!" Xu Lu got up, "I won't keep you company. I have to go pay back the money first."
"Thank you for this. I owe you a huge favor."
Yan Dongxu waved as he got up.
"Alright, I should get going too. I need to go buy some monitors to install when I get back."
"Keep in touch if you have time. Take care of yourself, don't die on me. You still have to pay me back."
Xu Lu left the cafe and got into a taxi.
In the car, she recalled the dreamlike experience she had today.
She had thought it was just another beating from life, but unexpectedly it turned out to be the favor of the god of fortune.
With this money, she could pay back what she owed and her pressure would not be so great.
Although she still owed money, owing just Yan Dongxu was better than owing several bosses who had always lusted after her.
"Yan Dongxu... Did you come to save me?"
Xu Lu picked up her phone and secretly clicked to follow him on the live streaming platform.
On the other side, Yan Dongxu took his sister to an electronics mall to buy several high-definition monitors.
After learning about them, he took the surveillance cameras back home and installed them himself.
Sure enough, the picture quality was very clear. Filters could even be set, and there was a beauty function.
Surveillance equipment nowadays was simply getting more and more outrageous.
After testing, he contemplated what to do about streaming at night.
His sister Yan Xinran's candid words directly brought a huge rhythm.
He had stopped streaming for half a day, and there were still many viewers discussing in his streaming room.
[Open up! Open the damn door. Why did you stop streaming? ]
[If you have guts don't stream tonight!]
[So many people are waiting. How long can you hide?]
[Brothers, let's rush this. Let's rush the news about him and Xu Yiyi to the top hot search.]
...
Yan Dongxu realized this matter would not calm down for a while.
Coincidentally, Xu Yiyi happened to send him a message at this time.
[You'd better explain things clearly to everyone. Your actions have seriously affected my reputation. I can't even continue working according to plan.]
[All plans are postponed. You will bear the economic losses caused. Expect a lawyer's letter!]
After reading the message Xu Yiyi sent,
Yan Dongxu snorted, "Since you told me to explain clearly, then I will explain clearly!"
Yan Dongxu immediately called Police Officer Zhao.
"Hmm? Why isn't she picking up?"
He called two more times but still no one answered.
[I'm not free to answer the phone right now. I'll call you back later.]
Zhao sent a message.
[Got it!]
After about two hours, Zhao called back.
"What do you need my help with?"
"I have something I want to ask you to help with. Don't worry, it's not a free favor. I'll treat you to a meal."
"Great, what are you treating me to?"
"You decide, as long as it's not ginseng and seafood, I can afford to treat you."
"Hot pot then. You go buy some ingredients and we'll eat at your house. Also prepare more bowls and chopsticks. I'll bring some friends over."
"Friends? If they're male I definitely won't entertain them." Yan Dongxu joked.
"Whether to entertain them or not is not for you to decide. They're coming to carry out official duties. Seven o'clock, don't stand me up."
After ending the call, Yan Dongxu wondered what was going on.
He had originally wanted to call Officer Zhao over and explain things clearly about Xu Yiyi on his evening stream with her.
Unexpectedly, Officer Zhao was also bringing friends over, which made him feel quite nervous and that he had to prepare more food.
In any case, as long as people came over, then when the time came he could just explain things and it would be done.
He went out to buy ingredients to prepare hot pot for the evening.
Yan Xinran insisted on tagging along no matter what. He knew her intentions all too well.
"I'll bring back snacks for you. Stay home and watch the house properly."
After busy working all afternoon, Yan Dongxu could be said to have bled money, spending nearly a thousand on food ingredients.
Yan Xinran watched with salivating. Her little stomach was growling noisily.
He had no choice but to open a small stove for his sister and cook her something first to eat her fill.
Children were easy to fool. Once full, they would sleep.
Around seven o'clock, Zhao arrived on time.
Apart from her, three men in black clothing also followed behind.
These three wore duck-billed caps lowered over their heads, and were carrying two silver cases in their hands. No matter how you looked at them, they did not seem like good guys.
"What's the meaning of this? What do your friends do?"
Seeing this, Yan Dongxu was confused and didn't quite dare let them in.
"They're people from special departments who have come to investigate your case. Don't be nervous. Let's eat first."
It was Zhao's second time coming. She entered as if it were her own home.
She even told the men behind her to change into slippers.
"You're too familiar with my house. People who don't know better would think you live here." Yan Dongxu joked.
Zhao Qingqing rolled her eyes. "What's that supposed mean. It's not like I haven't lived here before."
Yan Dongxu: "......"
