Chapter 742 - I’m just a kid with no money
"What do you want?" Tong Yue noticed the ill intent in Si Xiaohui’s demeanor, her expression in turn becoming menacing.
"Yueyue, don’t be scared, am I your aunt or not? Can I harm you?" Si Xiaohui pleaded pitifully. "I’ve come to see you this time, Yueyue, in the hope that I could borrow some money. Some people are hounding me to repay my debt, as you probably already know. I’m in a difficult situation right now, completely broke. Where am I supposed to find the money to pay my debts? The creditor threatened to slash me with a knife if I don’t repay him."
Upon hearing this, Tong Yue reflexively clutched at her pocket. "Why are you asking a child for money? I don’t have any money; go find my parents."
"If your parents were willing to lend me money, do you think I would still turn to a child like you?" Si Xiaohui managed to squeeze out a few tears. "Yueyue, can you help your aunt out?"
"I’ve already told you, I’m just a kid. I don’t have any money," Tong Yue reiterated.
"I know you don’t have any money, but you can just secretly take some from home, right? Your parents absolutely adore you. Even if they find out, they won’t scold you. Yueyue, if you don’t help me, I might really be done for." Si Xiaohui pleaded, holding onto Tong Yue. "Yueyue, you’re the only one who can help me now. Would you just leave me high and dry?"
Tong Yue blinked her eyes. "Fine, I’ll help you once. You can come collect the money tomorrow morning. Can I go to class now?"
Si Xiaohui’s eyes gleamed. "Thank you, Yueyue. I knew you were the kindest. Off you go now, don’t be late."
With that, just as Tong Yue was about to run towards the school, Si Xiaohui landed a punch on the back of her head. It was a strong punch, causing Tong Yue to see black and faint on the spot.
Si Xiaohui quickly held her up, checked that no one was paying any attention, picked up Tong Yue and walked off. Hmph, such a deceitful little brat, just like Tong Yao. She actually thought of fooling me.
Does she think I’m easy to fool?
