Chapter 418: Pay Off Her Debts
When Zhang Dong ran up the steps, he found that many students from Class 20 were still seated. Everyone seemed to be learning, scanning their notebooks quietly.
Unfortunately, Yao Tang wasn’t in the classroom.
He didn’t even wait as he raced down the steps. He ran straight toward the school gate, hoping to catch up to Yao Tang.
However, when he reached the school gate, he couldn’t see her at all!
Damn it! It was over. The President was on the plane right now, and Yao Tang didn’t even know he was coming!!!
What was he going to do?
..
“How much did you save?”
Yao Ran stared at Xu Xuanhelplessly. The last thing she wanted was to tell her parents about this, so right now, all she could do was save as much as she could.
However, at this time, she still hadn’t paid up.
Given that Xu Xuan was a bit poor, she couldn’t just rely on her.
“I’m still thinking of another way.” Xu Xuan bowed her head. “Just give me a little more time.”
A little more time?
If she wasn’t so incompetent, then maybe she wouldn’t have lost this competition! Maybe then, they wouldn’t have to pay such a large price for it!
“When do you think we’ll be able to raise the money? It’s not that I don’t want to give you more time. It’s just that time is of the essence right now, so it’s not good to delay any longer.”
Yao Ran maintained the expression on her face.
Xu Xuan frowned.
“Why don’t you give me your phone? I’ll see how much money you have left?” She extended her hand toward her, tilting her head.
The tennis player followed suit.
As soon as the old phone landed in her hand, a disgusted look flashed across her face, but she didn’t say another word.
When she noticed how slow the phone was, her frown only deepened even further.
She opened her bank account to see that there was only 476 yuan inside.
She opened the other savings app and saw that there was only 8 yuan inside it.
Helplessness started to grow inside her, and her fingers twitched. What the heck was she going to do now? How could she tell her parents about this?
Just then, two messages popped up on Xu Xuan’s phone,
“Xu Xuan, any updates?”
“I swear, the money will be yours.”
The messages were from Team Leader Wang of the Tennis Club!
As soon as she saw the word, “money”, Yao Ran immediately opened the messages and scanned through their chat history. Only when she finished reading through them did she finally understand what was happening.
So this was the case. She sent a message, “How much?”
Xu Xuan had inquired about how to join the Tennis Club.
But it seemed that the leader had other plans.
He was begging Xu Xuan to hand him the contact number of the student who had won against them from the last match.
All he wanted was the contact number and he’d give Xu Xuan a sum of money.
However, the woman rejected him without any hesitation.
Yao Ran gritted her teeth.
She could’ve used this opportunity to earn them a small sum of money to pay off just a bit of their debts, yet she still refused to hand over the information.
Was she insane?
Just the thought of this was enough to make her even more outraged.
“Are you done?” Xu Xuan tilted her head. “I’m expecting a text message from someone. Did I receive any messages?”
“Don’t be so worried.” Yao Ran’s eyes were cold. “I haven’t even finished looking through your account. Do you mind just waiting a little longer?”
Just then, her phone buzzed.
Xu Xuan was about to ask for her phone back when Yao Ransnapped, “Why are you in such a hurry? Do you think your time is more precious than mine? My grades are everything to me, and I’m sacrificing my time to study just to be here with you. Why are you in such a hurry?”
“Fine, I’ll wait.” She lowered her head and dropped her hand.
“My throat feels a little scratchy.” Yao Ran coughed. “Do you mind buying me a bottle of water from the snack bar?”
