Chapter 35
Su Xi's smile disappeared and she asked in a deep voice, "What's going on?"
Qingning paused for a moment, as if he was controlling his emotions, and then slowly told the whole story, "My father is a gambler. He has been gambling since I was a child, and he is still gambling today. A month ago, he
He didn't go home. He came back half a month ago and told us that he owed someone 300,000 yuan and wanted to sell the house. My mother refused to hand over the house and delayed it for half a month. Just yesterday, those people
They arrested my brother, and now my mother and I are in a hurry to sell our house to raise money. The debt collector said that we will see the money tonight, otherwise we will never see my brother again."
Su Xi frowned upon hearing this, "Have you called the police?"
Qingning's voice was full of exhaustion and helplessness, "My mother doesn't dare call the police, and she won't let me call the police!"
"What about your dad?"
"He ran away!" After saying this, Qingning couldn't help it any longer and sobbed loudly.
"Don't cry!" Su Xi said softly, "Don't be in a hurry to sell the house. Once the house is sold, where will you and your mother live?"
"Over the years, I have been working while going to school. I have saved 20,000 to 30,000 yuan, but there is still a big difference. Our relatives are afraid of being borrowed by my father. No one is willing to believe us, and no one is willing to lend us money again.
my home."
Su Xi didn't expect that Qingning, who was always optimistic, would have such a miserable family behind her.
Not all parents are qualified to call them parents. She understands this better than anyone else.
"Qingning, don't sell the house, I'll find a way for you." Su Xi said calmly.
"You are still a student, what can you do? You don't have to be embarrassed. Although our house is old, it is still worth a little money." Qingning didn't want others to worry about her, so she didn't look for it in the past half month even if she was desperate.
Su Xi, Su Xi called today and she couldn't control it.
"Don't you know that I work at the Ling family? I can borrow money from the Ling family," Su Xi said.
Qingning said in shock, "Really?"
Su Xi pretended to be relaxed, "Really, three hundred thousand is a small amount of money for the Ling family, and it is easy to borrow."
Qing Ning immediately said, "Then you lend it to me, and I will give them an IOU, and I will definitely pay it back!"
"No hurry, do you know where your father often gambles?" Su Xi asked.
Qingning said, "I know, I've been there before and had a big fight with my dad there."
"Send me your location." Su Xi said in a calm voice, "Then you go home first, and I'll pay the money with you in the evening."
"What do you want the position for?" Qingning asked in surprise.
"Don't worry, I won't do anything stupid." Su Xi laughed, "Take your mother home and listen to my news."
Qingning felt much more at ease listening to Su Xi's calm voice, "Okay, thank you, Su Su!"
"You're welcome, we are friends!" Su Xi said.
Qingning raised her voice and said "hmm" heavily.
After hanging up the phone, Su Xi sent a WeChat message, "Qingying, do something for me."
...
At nine o'clock in the night, Su Xi and Qing Ning appeared in Landu together.
Landu is a relatively large entertainment venue in City S. It is more civilian-oriented than Kaisheng, and the consumption varies. As a result, there is a mix of good and bad people here, and there are also private transactions that cannot be made public.
After the two entered, they reported their private room number, and the waiter led them there.
It was the first time for Qing Ning to come to a place like this. She saw a man hugging a woman and making out with her in the corridor. Her nervous eyes didn't know where to look.
"Don't be afraid!" Su Xi held her hand.
Qing Ning nodded. With Su Xi here, she felt much more at ease.
The door of the private room opened, and deafening waves of sound, wrapped in the smell of alcohol, hit his face. People inside were singing and drinking, mixed with women's laughter, making it chaotic and confusing.
Seeing the two people coming in, the people in the private room turned a blind eye, shook their heads, and were in a state of dissatisfaction, doing whatever they were supposed to do.
Qingning held Su Xi's hand and trembled slightly, subconsciously wanting to withdraw.
Su Xi raised her foot and kicked the door. A loud "bang" sound finally made everyone in the room stop. Except for a few drunk people, they were still shaking unconsciously.
