Zhang Xin was also anxious: "I’m willing to give you the money to use, so what! Why won’t you accept it! Didn’t you say you are my man! Is it so hard to accept me spending money on you?"
Qu Chaozong angrily said: "Do you think I’m that kind of person? Can I spend your money? Rely on you for support?"
The two of them were both a bit angry, glaring at each other with red faces and bulging neck veins.
Zhang Xin counted on her fingers to reason: "Who said I’m giving you this money for free? I trust your ability and believe that your company will definitely develop well in the future. The company was founded by you and Shi Yang in partnership, and the better the company profits, the more dividends you’ll get. Aren’t the money you earn in the future going to be spent on me too?"
The raging anger in Qu Chaozong’s heart was soothed a bit by Zhang Xin’s last words, and his tone noticeably relaxed: "Even so, I can’t use your money."
Zhang Xin observed his expression, seeing Qu Chaozong’s attitude softening, rushed over to hug his neck and waist, and whined: "This money is not for free; I’m just lending it to you. When you make money in the future, you can return it to me with interest. I usually just keep it in the bank earning interest, so if you’re really worried about me losing out, just pay me a little more interest then!"
Zhang Xin kissed Qu Chaozong’s lips, using her charm: "Last night you kept saying you wanted to marry me, Chaozi, are you lying to me?"
Qu Chaozong stared: "I always keep my word."
Zhang Xin kissed him again and immediately soothed him: "I knew you wouldn’t lie to me, Chaozi, I love you. I just want to be with you in this life. Consider this money my dowry. I have nothing else, only this money left. I love you as a person. Besides you, there’s no one else in this world worthy of my all. Actually, I’m lending you money to turn around, just to show my determination and let you know how much I love you."
While speaking, Zhang Xin caressed Qu Chaozong’s firm and fit waist, holding and hugging intimately: "Chaozi, I am already yours, so why distinguish between us?"
Qu Chaozong, from body to heart, softened under her coaxing, reached out to hug Zhang Xin back, unable to resist returning her kiss.
In the midst of passion and confusion, Zhang Xin timely whispered words of persuasion: "Chaozi, I love you, just give me a chance to give to you, will you? I love you as a person, I don’t mean to pressure you with money, please don’t misunderstand me, okay?"
At moments like these, men are always easy to talk to; Qu Chaozong, with his small vessel engorged and his brain severely starved of oxygen, listened to Zhang Xin’s tender confession in his ear. His heart immediately melted, and if Zhang Xin had said the moon was square, he would have nodded in agreement.
Qu Chaozong tightly held Zhang Xin, pressing her underneath him, saying nothing, just loving her fiercely. The full feelings of emotion and long-suppressed emotions, like a fuse igniting an explosive, were instantly detonated.
Zhang Xin, held down fiercely by Qu Chaozong, frowned while enduring the storm-like sensation, biting her lip to suppress her triumphant expression. "This big jerk!"
Qu Chaozong handed a bank card to Shi Yang: "Take this money and use it."
Shi Yang, holding the platinum card in his hand, immediately saw the cardholder’s name initials on the card’s corner, and looked up to ask: "You borrowed it?"
Qu Chaozong nodded: "Yeah."
Shi Yang pushed the card back: "We’re not at the point of breaking, we don’t need it, you should return it."
Qu Chaozong didn’t reach out to take it: "Take it and use it, and return it to her later when things turn around. Remember to include interest."
Shi Yang cautiously asked: "Something’s not right, Chaozi, is there something you haven’t told me?"
Qu Chaozong played dumb: "Do I need to explain to you? What do you want me to explain?"
Shi Yang squinted and laughed: "Don’t I know you? You’d never ask a woman to borrow money? Not even if forced! Now you’re giving this money to me, shouldn’t you explain something to me?"
Qu Chaozong chuckled and cursed: "Damn! Are you the worm in my stomach, knowing me so well?"
Shi Yang leaned in with a smile: "Come on, confess openly, what’s going on?"
Qu Chaozong’s lips curled up: "I’m with her."
Shi Yang seriously asked: "Have you thought about it? Serious about it?"
Qu Chaozong, teased to the point of embarrassment, covered half of his face with his hand: "Get lost! When am I not serious?!"
Shi Yang’s smile slowly faded, and he thrust the card back to him: "Then this money shouldn’t be used even more, Chaozi, you’re my buddy. There are some things I must say to you."
Qu Chaozong looked at Shi Yang, waiting for him to speak.
Shi Yang thoughtfully began: "From the start, I wasn’t quite supportive of you being with Zhang Xin, because she’s not your type. But I know you too well, once you’ve decided to be with her, you’re serious. I meet someone you like; I’m sure to bless you, but personally, I think while you two are together, at least until you officially marry, it’s better to keep things simple between you, avoiding financial entanglements. I’m mainly worried that you’ll fall too deep and get hurt easily in the future."
Qu Chaozong was extremely moved by Shi Yang’s words, saying softly: "I know what you’re saying, since I’ve decided to be with her, I don’t plan to let her go. If I don’t have this bit of confidence, can I still be considered a man! Rest assured, I know what I’m doing. Take this money and use it, and when we’ve turned things around, pay her back. Add more interest if needed and treat it as a small loan from her."
Shi Yang still hesitated a bit.
Qu Chaozong laughed: "Damn! You looking down on your buddy? Don’t you think I can keep an eye on my woman?"
Shi Yang looked at his bragging appearance and couldn’t help but laugh out loud: "Pretending to be a big bad wolf! If you were skinned, you’d just be a supersized plush toy!"
Qu Chaozong joked back playfully: "You ever seen such a big plush toy!"
The two exchanged a few mocking words, Shi Yang reached out and patted Qu Chaozong’s shoulder without saying anything, but they both understood each other’s intentions. Good buddies for life, some words are understood without needing to be said.
With Zhang Xin’s money, Shi Yang finally resolved his urgent difficulties, handing the renovation of the West District store to Zhao Wendada, and Shi Yang took Qu Chaozong to start negotiating the lease of another store.
On the way to negotiate the lease contract, Shi Yang’s phone rang. It was a call from Wang Tianyu. As soon as he answered, Wang Tianyu excitedly said: "Mr. Shi, Li Shuren just contacted me, asking why all the orders were canceled this week. I repeated what you instructed me to say before, and he got anxious immediately. He might contact you soon."
Shi Yang hung up, his long-clouded mood finally beginning to clear up.
Shi Yang turned his head and said to Qu Chaozong with some emotion: "Looks like our good luck is starting to turn."
Qu Chaozong laughed: "Damn!"
