"This is the IOU I wrote just now. You can keep it. If you feel uneasy, no problem. We can go to the notary office to notarize it. I will never lie."
Song Xiamo handed over the note and said very calmly.
IOU?
Zhao Shanhe was really surprised.
Before he came here, he thought about many possibilities, but he never thought of this.
The two parties had just met, and their relationship had just been announced. Song Xiamo didn't even wait for her to ask any questions before Song Xiamo revealed the matter.
Not to mention this, even the IOU has been settled.
What does this mean?
It means that there are only two possibilities for this kind of thing. One is that Song Xiamo is a liar, and a very high-level liar. He will block your way before you can say anything in doubt.
Look, I've paid all the IOUs. You can't say I'm not sincere, right?
The other is that Song Xiamo is a sincere person who is open and honest. She knows that it is impossible to borrow money just after meeting, but because she has difficulties and must borrow money, she writes the IOU in advance.
If this is the case, Song Xiamo is really a good girl.
Which one is it?
Zhao Shanhe raised his head and stared into Song Xiamo's clear eyes. His intuition told him that he must have seen the right person. The girl in front of him did not look like the kind of liar who was wandering around in the world.
Besides, Li Qiucheng is not stupid.
Do you really think that he hasn't even figured out the details of Song Xiamo these days and doesn't know what kind of person she is? After all, as long as you are a liar, you need to weave countless lies to cover up, and the flaws will be exposed as time goes by.
"Just put the IOU away."
After Li Qiuya was stunned for a moment, she pushed the IOU back without taking it or reading it.
Song Xiamo's face suddenly darkened.
But she didn't mean to show off her face on the spot. After putting away the IOU in embarrassment, she said in a bleak tone: "Sister, brother-in-law, you finally came to Xianhua City. I was supposed to accompany you, but I
I have something to deal with temporarily, so I decided to take the first step."
"Qiucheng, please take good care of your sister and brother-in-law."
"Sister, brother-in-law, goodbye."
After saying this, Song Xiamo clutched the IOU, picked up her small bag and walked out.
"Xia Mo, wait!"
Li Qiucheng hurriedly chased out, grabbed Song Xiamo's arm and said anxiously: "Are you leaving now?"
"What if?"
A helpless and bitter smile appeared on Song Xiamo's face, and she said with a hint of self-deprecation: "I can't do anything if I stay here, right? Qiucheng, you'd better go back and stay with your sister and brother-in-law. Don't worry about the money.
, I will find a way to solve it myself."
"You?" Li Qiucheng also looked anxious.
"That's it!"
Song Xiamo, who really wasn't in the mood to stay, turned around and left without looking back.
Looking at his back, Li Qiucheng gritted his teeth and stamped his feet, turned around and walked back to the room. As soon as he came in, he looked at Zhao Shanhe and Li Qiuya anxiously and said: "Sister, brother-in-law, do you want to borrow this money? I
As I said, this money is a loan and I will pay it back."
"If you don't believe it, I can also pay you an IOU. Brother-in-law, can I pay you now?"
"What are you talking nonsense about?"
When Li Qiuya heard this, she saw Li Qiucheng's confused expression and couldn't help but interrupt him, fearing that if he continued like this, he might say something even more rude.
"Have you ever talked to your brother-in-law like this?"
"What's the IOU? Do you think we really don't want to borrow money? We have to know the ins and outs of the whole thing, right? Our money didn't come from the strong wind. It's not like a girl just showed up.
, says she’s your girlfriend, we’re going to throw real money and silver into it, right?”
"Li Qiucheng, if you are sober now, let's talk about this matter."
"If you say you're being stupid, fine, we won't care about your affairs. You can borrow money from whomever you want. Aren't you so capable? Okay, you can do it yourself!"
"I!"
Li Qiucheng was speechless for a moment, his face flashed uncertainly, and finally he scratched his head and bowed his head in shame to Zhao Shanhe to apologize.
"Brother-in-law, that's not what I meant. Don't be the same as me."
"Qiucheng, you are outspoken when you speak like this."
Zhao Shanhe waved his hand and said nonchalantly: "You are my brother-in-law. Can I just ignore your affairs and not ask about it?"
"But your sister is right. You can't just say that we don't know anything and just lend you money with a blind eye, right? It's not impossible to lend you money. You have to give us a suitable reason."
"You said that your partner is in trouble and needs 500,000 yuan to solve it. But the question is, what is the relationship between your partner and you? How did you meet? Are you the kind of person who talks about marriage?"
"Even if you don't tell us, you have to tell our parents at least. But they don't know, so we lend you the money without knowing anything. Do you think it's reliable?"
"I!"
When Zhao Shanhe said this, Li Qiucheng fell silent for an instant.
"Gudong!"
Li Qiuya took out her water glass and took a sip of water, then said slowly: "Now tell me, what's going on with you? Why are you so excited to lend her money? Do you really know her? Have you met her?
Her parents? Do you know the situation of her family? "
"The difficulty she mentioned requires half a million to solve."
"Can I really solve the problem if I give you five hundred thousand? If we encounter such trouble again in the future, will you still have to lend her money? It won't be a bottomless pit. How much money do you have to fill it?
hole?"
Zhao Shanhe also looked over quietly.
Being stared at by these two people, Li Qiucheng slowly calmed down. He looked at the two people with bright eyes, took a few deep breaths and then slowly said: "Sister, brother-in-law, don't think that I am impulsive in what I do now.
, I fell in love, I became stupid. In fact, it is not that, I am more awake than ever before."
"Because I know Xia Mo is not the kind of woman you think."
"She is innocent and cute, she has a kind heart, and she has many advantages. Really, I'm not going to lie to you, every time I think about her advantages, I actually feel a little ashamed of myself and feel that I am not worthy of her."
"She's still a college student!"
…
Li Qiucheng slowly told their story like this. Zhao Shanhe and Zhao Shanhe listened, and their expressions gradually became serious. Because they could hear that what Li Qiucheng said was true and came from the bottom of his heart.
, this kind of thing does not mean that you can do it if you want to premeditate it.
The relationship between the two should be the most innocent kind.
Especially what Li Qiucheng said at the end made Zhao Shanhe and the two of them break through their defenses.
"Sister, brother-in-law, you don't know that Xia Mo saved my life. If she hadn't pushed me away at that time, I might have been hit by a car and died, and you would never see me again."
"What? Are you serious? When did this happen?" Li Qiuya stood up immediately, pulled Li Qiucheng up from the chair, looked around and caressed him.
"Where are you hurt?"
"Do you feel uncomfortable? Do you want to go to the hospital for a comprehensive examination?"
"Sister, I told you I'm fine, Xia Mo was the one who was injured."
Li Qiucheng stared over speechlessly.
"What's going on?" Zhao Shanhe asked in a deep voice.
"I was reading a piece of information on the side of the road. I was so focused that I didn't see the truck coming from the opposite direction. It was Xia Mo who hugged me and pushed me away. She was injured because of this and was lying in the hospital.
It will take half a month to recover from the injury."
"That's when we got along too."
"You think, can Xia Mo like this be a bad person? Could she be lying when she said she was having difficulties at home? And you have to believe me, really, if we don't help her solve her financial difficulties
, their somewhat vain parents would really marry her to Tian Jiaxiang of the Tian family!"
The more Li Qiucheng talked, the more excited he became.
It turns out there is such an inside story.
"I just said that for a while, I heard from Lao Gao that you seemed to be a little abnormal, and you often asked for leave to rest. I thought you were tired, so I didn't think much about it. Unexpectedly, you went to the hospital to take care of her.
"
Zhao Shanhe suddenly realized.
"Yes, I went to the hospital to take care of her at that time."
Li Qiucheng nodded.
"Her injury is not serious, so she didn't want me to stay with her in bed, and she didn't want to tell you about it, for fear that you would worry. Because I was patronizing to take care of her, I didn't tell you."
"Okay, we get it."
After Zhao Shanhe heard this, he had basically smoothed over Song Xiamo's affairs. He looked at Li Qiuya and said: "From Qiucheng's words, Xia Mo should be a good girl. At least she doesn't know our identities until now.
This shows that they are not here for our money, which is commendable."
"Sister, just believe me, Xia Mo is not the kind of girl who loves vanity." Li Qiucheng said.
"I believe you!"
Li Qiuya was also relieved.
"Now let's talk about her family's situation. What does her family do? What kind of trouble does her family encounter? What happened to Tian Jiaxiang you mentioned? Don't worry, if their family really encounters trouble,
Based on your relationship with Xia Mo, your brother-in-law and I will definitely solve it for you!" Li Qiuya said.
"Of course."
Zhao Shanhe raised his eyebrows and said proudly: "Your girlfriend, no matter what, you can't wrong yourself or take advantage of others just because of money. If you really do that, are you still a man?"
"Yes, that's what my brother-in-law said!"
Li Qiucheng's heart, which had been hanging around for a long time, was finally relieved. He knew that the hurdle for his sister and brother-in-law was over. And if this hurdle was passed, the next thing would be simple. After all, the troubles encountered by the Song family were real.
This cannot be done falsely.
"Actually, Xia Mo's family makes toiletries. The trouble they encountered this time was because they were tricked. The goods that were supposed to be delivered on time couldn't be delivered on time. According to the contract, they have to pay liquidated damages."
"The liquidated damages are a full five hundred thousand."
"Brother-in-law, all their money has been spent on the factory, and there is no spare money. That's why they are so anxious and angry now, and they are trying every possible means to figure out how to solve the problem."
Li Qiucheng's expression became serious as he spoke.
"For the five hundred thousand liquidated damages, I thought I would lend you money and I would help pay it back. In this case, her parents would look at me differently and wouldn't say anything to stop Xia Mo and me.
"
I see.
The matter is also very simple, it is nothing more than paying liquidated damages.
"Qiucheng, in this case, we also know what you said. Don't worry, if this is really the case, I will give you the money. There is absolutely no reason for you to lose your girlfriend."
Zhao Shanhe smiled slightly.
"Thank you, brother-in-law." Li Qiucheng was overjoyed.
"In this way, your sister and I rushed here after learning about your matter. We didn't even have lunch. We went to eat first, and then we talked about your matter."
Zhao Shanhe stood up.
"Brother-in-law, let me take you to eat." Li Qiucheng said quickly.
"you?"
Zhao Shanhe shook his head.
"Forget it. How can you still be in the mood to eat with us now? We can find a place to eat by ourselves. You should go find Xia Mo. Explain the matter clearly to her and tell her not to worry."
"Okay, I'll go find her right now."
Li Qiucheng stood up and walked out. He was really tied up by Song Xiamo.
Seeing Li Qiucheng's appearance, Li Qiuya shook her head helplessly.
"My silly brother is really in love."
"Isn't this great? When he wasn't in love, you and your parents kept urging him, and even introduced him to someone for a blind date. Now that he has finally found a suitable one, you are still here sighing."
"Do you want him to fall in love or not?"
Zhao Shanhe turned sideways and said with a smile.
"Of course I hope he talks about it, but I always feel that this matter is a bit unreliable. What do you think? Do you think what Qiucheng said is true? Is that Song Xiamo really an innocent girl? Is the Song family really
Are you in trouble?"
Li Qiuya wrinkled and said a little doubtfully.
"I know that you are worried that the Song family's trouble is a trap and you are deliberately trying to lure Qiucheng into it, right?" Zhao Shanhe asked.
"right!"
Li Qiuya did not deny it, but responded directly: "I would have believed it if you said it was something else, but how could it be a troublesome matter involving liquidated damages? I don't believe it. When the Song family signed the contract, they didn't know whether
The trouble with on-time delivery? They must know it. This is also the top priority that every businessman should bear in mind, am I right?"
"right."
Zhao Shanhe recognized this.
"If that's the case, he should deliver the goods on time. Even if he can't deliver on time, he should make it clear to the dealer. I don't believe it. If they were angry, how could the matter be solved like this?
Even if the dealer wants liquidated damages, if there has been negotiation, this matter will have to be discussed separately."
"So I think this matter is either a scheme to get some money from Qiucheng."
"Either the Song family did this on purpose to make Qiu Cheng retreat and make him understand that not everyone can marry Song Xiamo. A poor boy like him has no chance at all."
As soon as Li Qiuya finished speaking, Zhao Shanhe's eyes lit up, and what he said next made Li Qiuya's face change suddenly.
