Su Yi checked it once and then handed the pen to Bai Ruolin, “You are also one of the parties involved, you need to sign too.”
Bai Ruolin widened her eyes in disbelief, looked at Qin Yunfeng with a grievance, “Brother Qin, I—”
Qin Yunfeng gritted his teeth. For the sake of his own future and the future of two other people, he could only persuade, “I have implicated you. I will make it up to you in the future. Please sign.”
Bai Ruolin signed with tears in her eyes, then glared angrily at Su Yi, “I hope you can keep your promise and never bother Brother Qin again in the future.”
Su Yi smiled faintly and then handed the pen to Commissar Wang.
“Do I need to sign too?!”
“You are the leader here. My parents will only believe it with your signature. Don’t worry, I won’t show it to unrelated people. Besides, it only mentions that they are pursuing a free love relationship and opposing arranged marriages by parents, not committing any substantial crimes.”
Although Commissar Wang didn’t want to sign, the girl had already said so much.
He had to reluctantly sign his name, feeling inexplicably annoyed after signing.
So, he sternly lectured Qin Yunfeng and Bai Ruolin again, and also put on a show for Su Yi to see.
“Deputy Captain Qin just said that he has always treated Comrade Su as a sister. The previous engagement was just a misunderstanding. Since that’s the case, you all need to show a good attitude. It’s rare for her to visit, so you need to entertain her well, let her have a good time here for two days before she goes back.”
Bai Ruolin felt like grinding her teeth, but she also knew that only by doing so could she change the reputation she and Qin Yunfeng had in the compound.
She quickly agreed, “Commissar Wang is right. Yunfeng’s sister is also my sister. I will definitely entertain her well.”
After saying that, she turned and smiled at Su Yi, “Sister Su Yi, if you have any requests, feel free to ask. Don’t be polite with us. Yunfeng and I will try to compensate you as much as possible.”
Su Yi nodded, “So, how much money do you plan to compensate me?”
Bai Ruolin was first stunned when she heard this, then looked at Qin Yunfeng incredulously.
Su Yi smiled lightly and said, “Comrade Bai, were your words just now not sincere? I thought you genuinely felt guilty and wanted to compensate me.”
Bai Ruolin widened her eyes, “You want money?”
“Of course,” Su Yi smirked, “Do you think mere words can compensate me? Or do you think treating me to two meals would be enough compensation?”
After that, Su Yi started complaining to Commissar Wang.
How she had come from afar, how her luggage was stolen on the way.
And now she was penniless.
Commisar Wang nodded sympathetically, “Indeed, it’s pitiful. Deputy Captain Qin, how do you plan to handle this? After all, she will need money for the journey back.”
Seeing the situation, Qin Yunfeng reluctantly fished out two large unity bills from his pocket and handed them to Su Yi.
Su Yi glanced at them with a side eye, “Is this all you can spare for a beggar? The money I lost is worth much more than this. I wonder if it’s too late to report the incident now. Maybe I can’t even recover my money.”
Feeling guilty, Qin Yunfeng shook his hand nervously and quickly handed her the rest of the money, “This is all I have on me. The extra has been sent back home.”
Seeing that he had emptied his pockets, Su Yi accepted the money, along with the tickets.
After counting, it totaled seventy-nine yuan and six jiao.
After packing it up, she turned to Bai Ruolin and blinked.
Bai Ruolin nervously opened her mouth.
Su Yi kindly reminded, “Sister Bai, what about your contribution? You and Brother Qin are not married yet, his money can’t represent yours.”
Bai Ruolin was stunned, her eyes almost spitting fire with anger.
Su Yi continued to blink, “Commissar Wang, I wanted to ask, what should I do if I have nowhere to stay tonight?”
Commissar Wang cleared his throat, “They will arrange something for you, don’t worry.”
Qin Yunfeng hurriedly said, “You can just squeeze in with Ruolin.”
Su Yi quickly nodded with a smile, “That’s fine. Since I’m not very familiar with Sister Bai, sleeping together at night will give us a chance to get to know each other better. But I must warn you, I’m not a good sleeper. Last time, when I slept with a friend, I accidentally kicked her off the bed seven or eight times in one night. Sister Bai, be careful when you sleep at night.”
“Unfortunately, I don’t have much money on me. Otherwise, I would have found a place to stay outside and wouldn’t have troubled you.”
Upon hearing this, Bai Ruolin quickly took out the money from her pocket, “I’m not used to sleeping with others. You should go find a guesthouse to stay outside, it’s not far anyway.”
Su Yi nodded and straightforwardly accepted the money.
After counting, it was sixty yuan and four jiao, along with a few tickets.
“Sister Bai, you look so well-dressed, yet your pockets are even more modest than Brother Qin’s. I was planning to stay a few more days to spend time with both of you!”
Bai Ruolin was so angry that she exclaimed, “You—”
Su Yi quickly spoke, “Sorry, I just learned this idiom and don’t know how to use it properly!”
Bai Ruolin twitched her mouth, “I don’t have that much money on me. How about this, you can stay for now, and I’ll give you some more tomorrow.”
Su Yi chuckled inwardly. It was fortunate that Commissar Wang was present; otherwise, things might have gotten out of hand.
She couldn’t get the money now, so could she really expect Bai Ruolin to voluntarily bring it tomorrow?
Only a fool would believe her.
Su Yi smiled lightly and looked at Commissar Wang, “No need to trouble Sister Bai to make another trip. Why don’t you just borrow some money from Commisar Wang now?”
“Commissar Wang is your leader, and he just praised you both. He definitely won’t be afraid that you won’t repay. If necessary, you can write an IOU. There’s paper and pen readily available.”
Commissar Wang, sitting at his desk, observed for a while and understood the situation.
These two together were no match for Su Yi.
If they didn’t agree quickly, they might end up losing everything.
So, he proactively took out sixty yuan from his pocket, “Here, this is my contribution to make it a round sum for you. No need for an IOU; we are all in the same unit, and I trust you.”
Su Yi took a look and with the money from earlier, it added up to a neat two hundred yuan.
Feeling too lazy to deal with the two of them any longer, she bowed to Commissar Wang and was about to leave.
Before leaving, she gave them a few words of advice, “Don’t forget to bring the money to Commissary Wang early!”
Seeing her smug expression, both of them clenched their fists.
Especially Qin Yunfeng, with a monthly allowance of only thirty yuan, he had been planning to get back the money he had spent on her after breaking off the engagement.
Before he could even speak, he suddenly ended up contributing two hundred yuan!
After Su Yi left, Commissar Wang also felt inexplicably used as a pawn.
Having signed and borrowed money, what a mess.
So, he closed the door and gave Qin Yunfeng and Bai Ruolin a good scolding!
“Bai Ruolin, you have disappointed me. If it weren’t for the sake of your parents, I wouldn’t even want to deal with this today! Luckily, Comrade Su has a sense of propriety. Otherwise, if she insisted on reporting your misconduct, you wouldn’t be able to stay here!”
“And you, Qin Yunfeng, forget about your regularization as I mentioned before! Go back and reflect on yourself, write a two-thousand-word self-criticism!”
