Chapter 660: Chapter 660 – Fond of Kind People
“No, no, Yinyin, you’re misunderstanding him. He didn’t borrow money to buy a car. He was experiencing a cash flow problem in his business, so he borrowed one million from me.”n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
“So, did he buy the car before or after he borrowed the money?”
Lu Yanxi blinked, hesitated for a while, but ultimately didn’t want to lie to Qiao Yin, “Alright, he bought the car after he borrowed the money.”
Qiao Yin was speechless, “Doesn’t that settle it then? He used your one million to buy the car!”
“That shouldn’t be the case. His car was bought on loan.”
“The down payment for his car is almost exactly one million.”
Fury surged in Qiao Yin, “No, I need to confront him. He’s simply treating you like an ATM!”
Lu Yanxi hurriedly held her back, “Don’t go after him. His business just started to pick up. He needs a decent car to keep up appearances. If I don’t help him, who else will?”
Qiao Yin felt an immense sense of pity, “That’s not the way to help, Yanxi. You’ve had a good upbringing, well protected by your family, you don’t know how low some men can stoop. Do you think he would appreciate you for helping him? He won’t.”
Qiao Haidong is one such example!
“No, no, no, Chen Yuan is really grateful to me. He has always been very grateful, honestly. Moreover, he said that he will return my loan with interest. He’s just temporarily strapped for cash. Once his company takes off, everything will be alright.”
Qiao Yin thought she was too naive.
Chen Yuan’s gratitude was merely lip service. Who can’t say a few nice words? This costs him nothing, not even a penny. It’s literally cost-free.
She didn’t understand why Lu Yanxi could be deceived by such a person.
Lu Yanxi, who has been loved since childhood and who has never experienced hardship, why would she be interested in Chen Yuan, a poor and vain man?
As she was thinking, she asked, “Yan Xi, why exactly do you like Chen Yuan? I honestly can’t see anything good about him. If you like him for his good looks, I met your friend Xie Xingchen yesterday. Xie Xingchen is even more handsome and more charismatic than Chen Yuan. Why don’t you like Xie Xingchen?”
Not to mention, Xie Xingchen would definitely not ask for a loan from Lu Yanxi at the drop of a hat.
Moreover, if her memory served her right, even the drinking expense at the bar yesterday was paid for by Xie Xingchen.
Chen Yuan was plain ridiculous. Despite drinking more than the two of them combined, why did he let Xie Xingchen foot the bill?
“Well… Xingchen and I are just ordinary friends.”
Lu Yanxi did not want Qiao Yin to know that she was not very familiar with Xie Xingchen, so she lowered her head and said, “One reason that I like Chen Yuan is because of his good looks, but there is another much more important reason—he is gentle, good-tempered, and kind. He is nice to everyone, he is a bit… a bit like my older brother.”
Upon hearing the last sentence, Qiao Yin was taken aback, “You have a special fondness for him because he is like your older brother? Your feelings towards your older brother—”
Lu Yanxi’s face flushed, she stuttered, “You, don’t misunderstand, I, I don’t like my older brother that way, I just, I just think that people like my brother are good, I haven’t seen a better person than my brother, and Chen Yuan is the second best person, so…”
For a while, Qiao Yin remained silent.
She looked at Lu Yanxi and let out a soft sigh, “So, you actually miss your older brother, which is why you are exceptionally kind to Chen Yuan. You want to make up for past regrets, right?”
Lu Yanxi thought for a while and said, “That’s not entirely it. I just like people with good temperament, kind people. Chen Yuan respects me. He’s not like other men who approach me with ulterior motives, either for the connections my family can provide or for sex. Chen Yuan doesn’t want either. He is simply nice to me.”
What do you think?
