Chapter 185: Chapter 185: [Extra] Stay with Me for a Month
Jiang Yurou held Zhou Ming’s face and began to check his injuries, but fortunately, they were only superficial wounds.
She slowly turned to Cheng Yi, asking in disbelief, "Brother Yi, why did you do this to him?"
Cheng Yi hadn’t expected Jiang Yurou to burst in at that moment. He let go of the hand on Zhou Ming’s head and slowly stood up, not hiding anything and told her the truth.
After hearing everything, Jiang Yurou’s lips parted and closed repeatedly; one was her best friend, the other the man she liked.
Who should she help?
Jiang Yurou struggled inwardly and then said, "Brother Yi, Zhou Ming definitely didn’t do it on purpose. He didn’t know the person in the photo was Nannan. If he had known it was my best friend, he would never have sold it."
Seeing that Cheng Yi remained silent, Jiang Yurou spoke again, "Brother Yi, how much money did you lose? I can compensate you."
Cheng Yi’s expression finally changed slightly as he said, "Jiang Yurou, I never expected you’d go this far for a man."
Jiang Yurou was now completely out of the Jiang family’s control, barely managing herself, let alone coming up with fifty million in a short time.
"Brother Yi, I haven’t really asked you for much since I was young. Please, let him go..."
"Rourou, don’t beg him, don’t beg him..." This was his mess, how could he let a woman take the blame for him?
Cheng Yi suddenly felt it was unfair for Tan Bo, thinking if he were to see this scene, he would probably be heartbroken...
Ignoring Zhou Ming’s words, Cheng Yi sighed and said, "Fine, since you care so much about him, you pay back the money for him. If you can pay it within a week, I won’t bother him anymore."
Actually, Cheng Yi was making it difficult for Jiang Yurou on purpose, knowing it was impossible for her to gather so much money so quickly.
So, she would either have to borrow from Tan Bo or return to the Jiang family.
He wasn’t really concerned about the fifty million; he just wanted to help Tan Bo one more time.
It was up to him to seize this opportunity...
"Okay, I agree," Jiang Yurou answered immediately.
Cheng Yi nodded in satisfaction, then left the exceedingly small shop. As he walked out, he took off his coat and handed it to someone beside him.
"Mr. Yi, are you really letting this person go just like that?"
Cheng Yi took the wet wipe offered by his assistant and wiped his hands, "My sister begged me like that, how can I not let him go?"
Besides, Xinan would surely advise him once she found out, not to mention he didn’t want her to know about this yet.
The assistant nodded, understanding.
After watching Cheng Yi walk away, Jiang Yurou helped Zhou Ming up slowly, "Are you okay?"
Zhou Ming didn’t answer her question but instead asked, "How could you beg him?"
"It’s okay, he’s got a tough exterior but a soft heart. Don’t forget I’m his sister. Once he calms down, he definitely won’t make things difficult for me."
"But the fifty million..." Zhou Ming looked at Jiang Yurou with some heartache.
"Don’t worry, he’s not short of that bit of money. He just wanted to scare me."
"Really?" Zhou Ming still somewhat doubted.
"Of course, it’s true. Besides, my best friend is his girlfriend. I’ll have her speak a few good words to Cheng Yi, and this matter will be over."
"Rourou, you must tell me if anything happens. This matter has nothing to do with you, you shouldn’t have to do this for someone like me..."
"Okay, I will tell you first if I have any problems, alright?"
Zhou Ming responded hesitantly, "Hmm."
Because of the incident, Zhou Ming had no heart to keep the shop open, so he let Jiang Yurou close it up.
Jiang Yurou originally wanted to help Zhou Ming get home to rest, but thinking of Zhou Lezhi at home, she feared if she saw Zhou Ming like this, she might worry.
So Jiang Yurou dismissed the idea and helped Zhou Ming to a chair to rest.
Because of the injury on his face, Zhou Ming made a call home and told Zhou Lezhi that he would be staying in the shop overnight and asked her to secure the doors and windows and not to open the door to strangers.
After arranging everything, Zhou Ming urged Jiang Yurou to leave.
But no matter what Zhou Ming said, Jiang Yurou didn’t leave and stayed with him.
Not until Zhou Ming’s facial wounds had almost healed did she reluctantly return to her apartment.
And now, three days had passed the deadline set by Cheng Yi.
Jiang Yurou hesitated for a long time but ultimately dialed Xinan’s number.
Upon learning that Xinan was pregnant, however, she found herself at a loss for words.
Nevermind, better not to trouble Xinan.
Jiang Yurou asked about Xinan’s health before hanging up the phone and immediately called Tan Bo.
It seemed that whenever there was an emergency, aside from Xinan, he was the first person she thought of.
The call was quickly answered, and Jiang Yurou was direct, "Brother Bo, can you lend me fifty million right now?"
A voice came through the phone, perplexed, "Why do you suddenly need so much money?"
Jiang Yurou explained everything to Tan Bo, speaking very tactfully, every word defending Zhou Ming.
After she finished, laughter burst out on the other side of the phone, "Do you really like that man that much?"
"Yeah, Brother Bo, please help me." Her intuition told Jiang Yurou that Tan Bo would help her.
Tan Bo frowned, lighting a cigarette, and after a moment of silence, said, "I can help you, but you have to agree to a condition."
"What condition?"
"Stay with me for a month."
Jiang Yurou thought Tan Bo’s meaning of "stay" was as usual—like when he came to her apartment, just cleaning up, cooking meals—so she agreed without a second thought, "Okay, I agree."
Even Tan Bo was surprised by how quickly Jiang Yurou agreed. Was that man really so good that she would go to such lengths for him?
A wave of sourness surged in Tan Bo’s heart; he should be happy, but why did he feel so miserable?
Tan Bo took a deep drag of his cigarette then asked slowly, "When do you need this money?"
"As soon as possible," Jiang Yurou’s voice was clearly anxious.
"Hmm, the money will be transferred to Cheng Yi’s account tomorrow."
"Thank you, Tan Bo."
Tan Bo gave a bitter laugh, "Don’t thank me. Get your things packed early tomorrow and come to my villa."
"Got it."
Jiang Yurou thought for a moment then added, "I can’t cook, so don’t expect me to make anything tasty."
"That’s fine, I’ll cook."
"What about cleaning?"
"There’s a maid for that."
"Alright then."
At this moment, Jiang Yurou didn’t realize how her choice had directly changed the fate between her and Zhou Ming.
