Chapter 64: Interrupted at a Good Time (2/2)

“You don’t need to explain the strategy you guys discussed, I understand it all.”

“And, after my university entrance exams are over, I need you to go to…”

Zhao Qingfeng’s voice lowered as he whispered into Chun Tao’er’s ear.

Listening, Chun Tao’er’s frown deepened. A minute later, she hurriedly waved her hands, “No, that’s not possible. If I do that, wouldn’t I be betraying Zhang Ping and Zhao Ming?”

Zhao Qingfeng shook his head, “You’re being foolish. I haven’t finished speaking. What future do you have in this small town? Once this is done, I have a good plan for you, and you’ll be able to make big money.”

Chun Tao’er eagerly inquired further.

Zhao Qingfeng didn’t say more but kept painting a picture of a potentially prosperous future.

Chun Tao’er’s heart fluttered with excitement, almost wishing she could start making big money right away.

Zhao Qingfeng brought her back to reality, “So, do you agree or not? If you agree, we have a deal. If not, return the thousand yuan. And remember, you can always go to Zhao Ming and spill the beans; I’m not afraid of you.”

It was like bargaining while shopping.

Once money is in the seller’s hands, no one wants to give it back.

This is a small trick that can be extended in many directions.

At that moment, Chun Tao’er was like the seller, and what she was betraying was her so-called friends. Holding the recently warmed thousand yuan in her pocket, she took a deep breath and nodded, “I agree. Zhang Ping isn’t good to me at all. Do you know she only offered me 300 yuan to seduce you? Our relationship is just like plastic sisters.”

After thinking, she posed a crucial question, “But what if you break your promise? I can see this thousand, but what about the future five thousand? How can you, a middle school student, earn that?”

How?

Zhao Qingfeng didn’t answer but looked at Chun Tao’er with a confident and calm gaze.

Their eyes met.

Chun Tao’er felt that Zhao Qingfeng’s eyes were extraordinary.

It was a deep gaze, seemingly able to see through people’s hearts, exerting immense pressure.

After a while, Zhao Qingfeng turned away and casually said, “Not ‘how.’ I promise you now that I will give you the money before the end of the university entrance exams. If I break my word, you can go to Zhao Ming and report me. Isn’t that enough?”

Chun Tao’er believed him.

As someone who thought she had seen it all, she had never experienced this feeling with any other man.

Confident and composed, as if everything in the world was within his easy grasp.

In a moment, she suddenly found Zhao Qingfeng very charming, like a mature and restrained man, a strange feeling.

Snap.

At that moment.

Something hit the window.

Zhao Qingfeng was startled, suspecting Zhao Ming was peeking outside.

He quickly signaled Chun Tao’er.

Chun Tao’er, quick-witted, hugged Zhao Qingfeng, and they pretended to kiss, casting their shadows on the curtain through the light of the computer screen.

Snap.

Snap.

Just as they embraced, two more pebbles hit the window.

Zhao Qingfeng was startled again; something was wrong, it definitely wasn’t Zhao Ming. He had no reason to interrupt his ‘good time.’

“Bad!”

Realizing this, Zhao Qingfeng quickly pushed Chun Tao’er away and lifted the curtain corner, peeking outside.

He saw Shen Lingyao’s figure running into the distance, covering her face and crying as she ran.

“…”

Zhao Qingfeng gasped in shock, hurriedly told Chun Tao’er to wait in the room.

Then he jumped out of the window, tumbling awkwardly. Ignoring the pain in his legs and backside, he scrambled up and chased after Shen Lingyao’s direction.
