Chapter 619 - 620 Let’s Help Out
250,000 yuan was not a big deal for Miao Xuanxuan and Song Xiaodong, but in front of their classmates, Miao Xuanxuan really didn’t want to show off, so she gently squeezed Song Xiaodong’s hand to keep him from talking too much. She had already made up her mind to give Sun Ya the money quietly later, to help her through the tough times.
"Let’s all do our best, give as much as we can." Seeing that Wei Yansong hadn’t spoken and realizing that the amount was also significant for him, clearly unable to contribute, people started to take action.
"I don’t have much cash on me, I’ll transfer it to Sun Ya."
"Right, that’s a better approach."
This method also ensured everyone’s privacy, not having to reveal how much each had contributed, which could be embarrassing for those who gave less.
Watching everyone fiddling with their phones, Wei Yansong felt that he should still make a statement, clearing his throat, he said, "Sun Ya, I truly can’t come up with 250,000 yuan. Most of my family’s money is tied up in the business, and I don’t have much at my disposal. So here’s what I can do; I’ll give you 30,000 yuan. You don’t need to pay it back. I hope you understand."
30,000 yuan was indeed a generous amount; everyone cast admiring glances at Wei Yansong, making him feel relieved. He added, "Actually, loan sharking is illegal. If you find the right person, you won’t have to repay that much. Sun Ya, which company did you borrow from? I’ll see if I can find someone so you might repay less, lightening your burden considerably."
Sun Ya timidly said, "This... it’s from Jinyun Finance Company."
"Jinyun Finance..." Wei Yansong furrowed his brow.
Tao Lili immediately asked, "What’s the matter? Wei Yansong, don’t you know someone from that company?"
Wei Yansong gave a bitter smile and said, "I do know them, but I’m not really in a position to speak, and this company is arguably the most notorious financial firm in Huaqing City. They don’t offer favors lightly and are very aggressive in debt collection."
Tao Lili then asked, "Does that mean our only option is to repay the money?"
