The Kitty Became a Cutie and Was Pampered in the 80s Chapter 1743: Admiration (5)

The fragile, pitiful deanor is not sothing everyone appreciates; at least Shu Jiao, who is sitting in the passenger seat, doesn’t.

Today, Ruan Jiaojiao is trying on dresses, and of course Shu Jiao couldn’t miss this event. She had known about it from Ruan Hao last night, but she had to handle so urgent matters early this morning, thus she went out early and rushed to be here now.

The car windows are tinted, so people outside can’t see inside. Shu Jiao looks at the shivering girl outside with a calm expression, and she rolls down the window, discreetly glancing at Ruan Hao beside her.

Zhou Yun never expected the window to be rolled down by an attractive woman. Even though she looks evidently not young anymore, Zhou Yun instinctively pauses, with her eyes involuntarily showing traces of hostility.

"Who are you?" Shu Jiao notices Ruan Hao isn’t planning to speak, so she takes the initiative to ask.

Zhou Yun bites her lip, glances at her, then at Ruan Hao. After exchanging silent looks for several seconds, she decides to ignore Shu Jiao and instead, with a more pitiful expression, says to Ruan Hao: "Mr. Ruan, my... my mother is ill and urgently needs money. Regarding the money I repaid last ti... could you return it to ? I promise... I promise to pay you back double in the future, okay?"

After speaking, she bows her head, too afraid to et Ruan Hao’s eyes, as if afraid to see sothing unbearable within them.

This matter dates back to more than three months ago when Ruan Jiaojiao went shopping with Ruan Hao to buy a present for Duan Xi. In a watch store, they encountered Zhou Yun, who was working a sumr job and nervously spilled water on Ruan Hao’s trousers, leading Jiang Xun to misunderstand and think Ruan Jiaojiao and Ruan Hao were bullying Zhou Yun.

Though this misunderstanding was later cleared up, Ruan Hao wasn’t concerned and left a business card for the store, intending for them to bill him since he couldn’t carry so much cash with him.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Yun was the one to settle the bill at the hotel. Ruan Hao didn’t mind, although he was curious because Zhou Yun was rely a temporary worker; such orders wouldn’t typically fall to her. But he didn’t think much of it, confird there were no issues, and instructed his finance departnt to settle the account.

Surprisingly, after settling the account, Zhou Yun didn’t leave but waited in the hotel lobby until Ruan Hao finished work. Then she rushed out with a flushed face, saying she wanted to repay him for his trousers.

To soone wealthy, Ruan Hao’s trousers were nothing, but for ordinary people, it equated to a month’s salary, especially for Zhou Yun, who couldn’t repay it even after working two months of sumr jobs.

Ruan Hao had no intention of making a fuss over it, especially since the trousers weren’t damaged, just wet at the ti. But Zhou Yun was stubborn, insisting on repaying him as if failing to do so was a form of humiliation.

Ruan Hao dislikes trouble, and seeing her insist, he let her do as she pleased.

Unexpectedly, over the three months following, Zhou Yun would frequently co to the hotel to find Ruan Hao, claiming each ti she ca to repay him, albeit the amount each ti was only around ten yuan.

Ruan Hao was busy, juggling his job and lectures at the school with constant traveling between the two places, so she rarely saw him. Thus, she was directed to the hotel front desk instead.
