Chapter 383: Chapter 383: Old Affections Turn to Present Hatred

"Squeak!"

A high-end sedan stopped in front of the Tianxiang Pavilion.

The driver, Ning Mengyao, looked at Chu Tianyang, who was shivering by the roadside.

She never could have imagined that the object of her secret affections in her youth had become so pitiful.

With a sigh, she finally pressed the unlock button.

"Meng Yao, I just knew you would help me."

He hurriedly pulled open the passenger door.

Chu Tianyang, with a sly grin, got into the car.

He reached out to wipe her right hand, which was on the gear shift.

"Chu Tianyang, I’m only doing this for the sake of an old classmate, so don’t think too much about it," she said.

Ning Mengyao, with a cold face, pulled her hand back.

Sitting there, she felt no fluttering in her heart now.

"Yes, yes, yes... But I know you’re sentimental about the past, after all, back in our student days..."

Chu Tianyang hastily tried to bring up the past.

But he was directly interrupted by Ning Mengyao.

"I don’t want to talk about the past anymore. Just tell me what trouble you’ve gotten into, and I’ll see if I can help."

"Actually... actually, the reason Tang Yixin and I broke up was because of you... I know I hurt you back then... but I swear, in the future I’ll certainly make it up to you doubly..."

Chu Tianyang still tried to provoke Ning Mengyao with the old feelings.

But he was interrupted again.

"We never had anything before, and we will not have anything in the future. I’ll say it again, if you keep talking like this, you can get out of the car," she said.

At this moment, Ning Mengyao really regretted coming back.

This guy was simply beyond help.

"Okay, okay, I’ll stop talking."

Silenced by the rebuke, Chu Tianyang instinctively looked back through the rear-view mirror.

Sun Erhu’s minivan was parked right behind them.

If he got out of the car now, he wouldn’t stand a chance of surviving.

"Then I’ll just say it straight, I have no money, can you lend me some?"

"No money! You still come to Tianxiang Pavilion to host a meal?"

Hearing this, Ning Mengyao frowned.

He had casually spent twenty to thirty thousand just a while ago.

How could he have no money and still do something like this?

"I... I just wanted to treat you well... so... could you lend me some money?"

Chu Tianyang hung his head awkwardly.

He really was at the end of his rope.

"Here’s what I’ll do, I’ll transfer fifty thousand yuan to you, and let’s consider today’s meal on me. You have arms and legs, go out and find a job, and try to live a decent life from now on," she said.

Ning Mengyao picked up her phone.

She had no intention of having Chu Tianyang pay her back.

"Fifty thousand isn’t enough... I still owe a lot of money... Meng Yao, please lend it to me, I really have nowhere to turn to, and no door to knock on. Don’t worry... I promise I will definitely repay you in the future," he pleaded.

Chu Tianyang looked at Ning Mengyao with a pleading face.

Hearing this, she frowned.

From the way he had been behaving, she knew better than to ever expect him to repay the debt.

But since she had come back, she felt awkward to refuse.

"How much do you need to borrow?"

"I need to borrow... one hundred million!"

When Chu Tianyang said this,

the car fell silent.

Ning Mengyao stared at him, speechless.

"Are you insane!"

One hundred million.

For the average person, let alone one lifetime,

even ten lifetimes wouldn’t be enough to earn that much money.

How was his brain even wired?

"I’m not crazy, Meng Yao, you have to believe me, I can definitely make a comeback. I don’t need much, just one hundred million. After paying off the external debts, I’ll use my previously accumulated connections to start a company. I guarantee that within one year, the profits will double, and in two years, we’ll go public. Within five years, I promise to break into the top companies with billions in value. Consider this one hundred million an early investment, I assure you the profits could be more than ten times that. For someone like me, a top Ivy League graduate, this is just a trivial matter, routine work!"

Chu Tianyang was exceptionally spirited when he talked about his future plans.

The way he was spitting as he spoke, Ning Mengyao’s heart turned cold.

"Being an Ivy League genius, you don’t need to prove how capable you are to me. Since you have such strong connections, you should seek help from someone more capable. The Ning Group is just a small temple that can’t accommodate a big Buddha like you. Get out of the car."

"Meng Yao, don’t you believe in me? I can really achieve this. After all, I’ve been with the Tang Family for so long, who would daredisrespect me wherever I go? Don’t worry, I really mean what I say. I’ll even write a promissory note for you. If it comes to it, I’ll return it a hundred times over after ten years. How about that?"

Chu Tianyang gesticulated wildly with his hands.

That feeling, he seemed like a madman.

"Sorry, I can’t produce that much money. You better get off quickly."

Ning Mengyao really regretted why she had to come back and meddle.

"Meng Yao, I’m begging you, I don’t need much, just one hundred million. You are the president of the Ning Group, one hundred million is just a small amount for you. Help me out, it’s good for you too!"

Chu Tianyang naturally wouldn’t get off the car.

Now, he must get that one hundred million.

"You are crazy! If you don’t leave, I will!"

Ning Mengyao could no longer talk to him normally.

He was clinging on, not leaving.

So she could only leave the car first.

But just as she reached out to unbuckle her seatbelt,

a cold knife was suddenly pressed against her neck.

"What... what are you doing?"

A chill instantly made Ning Mengyao too scared to move.

Chu Tianyang, who had become agitated, was completely insane.

"I need to borrow money, I need to turn my life around... I want all those who looked down on me to kneel before me!"

Right before getting out of the car, Chu Tianyang had taken a dagger from Sun Erhu.

He had thought that if push came to shove, he would resort to force.

"Chu Tianyang, I don’t look down on you. On the contrary, it’s because of our old classmate relationship that I came back to help you. Calm down!"

Ning Mengyao dared not provoke him and could only whisper reassuringly.

"I am calm now. I just need the money, just one hundred million. Give me the money now, and I will let you go immediately. Otherwise, if I can’t live, neither can you!"

The desperate Chu Tianyang glared fiercely at Ning Mengyao.

"But I can’t produce one hundred million right now. Even if I move the company’s funds, it will take some time. Can you give me some time and I’ll transfer the money to you as soon as I gather it? Is that okay?"

Ning Mengyao asked with a smile in her voice.

"Don’t even try. You women are all liars. You and Tang Yixin are the same, treating me like a monkey!"

But Chu Tianyang refused to give up.

With the knife in his hand, he vented all his grievances on Ning Mengyao.

"I followed her for five years, working like a horse, enduring everything silently, even when she cheated, I turned a blind eye. But what about her? She ruthlessly turned her back on me, kicking me out without any discussion, indifferent to my pleas. So, I’ll never trust a woman again in my life. Give me the money, I need one hundred million now, or we die together!"
