Chapter 24: Chapter 24: I Want You for 1 Year (2)

From the day she got the notebook, she began writing a diary. In the blink of an eye, more than ten years had passed, and three-quarters of the notebook was filled, writing had become a habit for her.

She penned hurriedly, with few words, maintaining the usual simplicity and lightness, as if the world’s glitz and chaos were not worth much ink from her pen.

After some time, Qiao Mo received two text messages on her phone, one was a transfer notification, the other from Xie Qinghuan.

’Xiao Mo, this is 300,000 yuan from Chuchu and me. I know if Qin Zhaoran has to operate, this money might not be enough, but at least the medical expenses can last a while.’

Qiao Mo’s eyes felt a little moist, she held onto her phone without making a sound or replying.

She knew Qinghuan did not call because she feared embarrassing her, after all these years she had never asked anyone for help.

But now, she had begged that man several times, lowering herself to let him trample on her.

What else did she have to care about?

...

The next morning, Jiang Jinghao accompanied Qiao Mo in visiting some of Qiao Dehou’s close friends or uncles who had once treated her well.

But after two consecutive days, their voices worn out, the doorsteps worn thin, yet laughably, they hadn’t borrowed a single cent!

Until the morning of the third day, Jiang Jinghao called to say he had something to deal with, so Qiao Mo went knocking on door after door alone.

"Uncle Feng... I beg you! Help Xiao Xuan!"

Seeing it was the last agreed day with Fu Nancheng, Qiao Mo’s eyes were bloodshot from exhaustion, holding tightly to the middle-aged man in front of her, unwilling to let go.

The man sighed, a flicker of compassion flashed in his eyes.

He hesitated for a while but eventually spoke, "Ah, Xiao Mo, let me be honest with you! Fu Nancheng has spoken — anyone who lends money to you is opposing him..."

"Xiao Mo, it’s not that Uncle is heartless. If it were just my own life, I wouldn’t mind risking it for your brother! But think of the whole Feng family, so many people... I cannot disregard my own descendants!"

Qiao Mo didn’t know how she left the Feng house, only the scenes from the past few days continuously replayed in her mind.

’Miss Qiao, sorry, go find someone else...’

’Miss Qiao, your designs are nice, but business isn’t good recently, we can’t take such a big risk.’

’Leave, leave, don’t come back... I won’t lend you money, nor will I buy your designs!"

’Get lost! How many times have I told you not to come back!’

Qiao Mo’s fingers slowly curled, her eyes red, nearly bleeding tears.

Fu Nancheng... Fu Nancheng!

What exactly do you want to do!

Qiao Mo walked aimlessly on the street for a long time, her phone kept ringing, it was several minutes later when she came to her senses, her nose tingled: "Jing Hao..."

"Xiao Mo, I just transferred 500,000 to you, and later I’ll transfer 5 million more to you, luckily an investor took interest in my project."

Qiao Mo was slightly stunned, her restrained tears burst forth, sliding down and leaving two trails on her face.

"Xiao Mo? Are you listening?"

Qiao Mo chuckled lightly, pretended to be relaxed, and said: "Did you sell yourself?"

Seeing her joking with him, Jiang Jinghao let out a soft sigh of relief.

He understood her, she wasn’t one to express herself easily, even seeming a bit aloof and unsociable to many.

But he knew, she was actually fully aware inside of how everyone treated her.
