It quieted down.
Xiao Hua silently swallowed her saliva.
This... the rain is pouring so heavily, so earnestly.
Her host, she’s becoming terrifying!!
Xiao Hua didn’t dare to say another word.
Just stayed put, very obediently.
Su Yan flipped the quilt over her head, the impatience in her expression growing thicker.
"So annoying."
Just her luck, the phone started vibrating.
She didn’t want to answer, but the phone kept ringing incessantly.
Reaching out, she grabbed the phone beside the pillow with an impatient tone.
"Speak."
It was the original owner’s younger brother, Su Litian.
"What’s it going to be? Mom should have called you by now. I advise you to be swift about it, 7000 yuan, now, imdiately, bring it to !!"
Su Yan closed her eyes,
"Who gave you the nerve to speak to with that tone?"
Everything between the lines was laced with impatience.
Su Litian never thought that his usually obedient sister would suddenly talk to him like that.
He was taken aback for a mont and then sneered,
"Su Yan, to , all you are is a money dispensing machine. Do you really believe you’re my sister? Pah! I, Su Litian, do not have a sister like you."
Su Yan, eyes still closed, sat on the bed in silence for a long while.
Until she spoke,
"Where are you?"
At that, Su Litian laughed.
"You’re going to give the money sooner or later, why make things unpleasant between us, right? I’m at the back alley of X High School, the place where you used to bring money."
No sooner had his voice faded than Su Yan hung up the phone.
Half an hour later.
Back alley of X High School.
A group dressed in high school uniforms, but with clothes all askew, so with hair dyed in bright colors, smoking a cigarette, clearly not the studious type.
The downpour had turned into a drizzle, seemingly about to stop.
But the sky remained overcast.
One of them got impatient and tossed away his cigarette butt,
"Hey, when exactly is Su Litian’s sister coming? Is she playing us?"
Su Litian and Su Yan look seventy percent similar.
If there’s a difference in the remaining thirty percent, it’s probably in their eyes.
Su Litian’s eyes are narrow, whereas Su Yan’s are almond-shaped.
Plus, Su Litian been well-nourished since childhood, a bit chubby.
Thus, his narrow eyes seed squinted from the plumpness.
Crew-cut, 1.8 ters tall, squinty little eyes, dressed in a school uniform, leaning against a corner wall.
Careless onlookers might mistake him for a robber lying in wait.
Su Litian tossed aside his cigarette butt,
"She wouldn’t dare not to co. If she doesn’t, our parents would kill her."
Su Litian’s tone was as though he had Su Yan all figured out.
Hearing his assured words, finally, the others managed to suppress their impatience too.
That was 7000 yuan after all.
Once the money was in hand, they could live high for a while longer.
Waiting a bit longer was no big loss.
Then ca another half hour of long waiting.
Finally, in the rain, they saw a woman with a black baseball cap and dressed all in black, walking step by step towards them with a transparent umbrella.
As they saw who approached, Su Litian’s eyes lit up.
He took a quick step forward,
"Why so slow?! Where’s the money?!"
He roared.
His brisk walk kicked up so mud water, splashing onto Su Yan’s trousers.
Su Yan remained silent, the umbrella resting on her shoulder, her hand swaying slightly.
"How much money do you want?"
Her voice seed indifferent and distant.
Su Litian frowned,
"7000 yuan, hand it over quick!"
