Seeing the pitiful looks of these two people, Xia Fanxing knew that she could not sympathize with them because they must be pretending.

But she thought of her adoptive father Xia Guoqiang.

The old house on Erqi Road is my adoptive father’s only property.

She didn't want the house to be splashed with paint, and she didn't want her adoptive father to be harassed.

For the sake of her adoptive father, she decided to give them some money.

Thinking of this, she said coldly, "I can give you 5,000 yuan. This is my latest salary. I don't have a penny more! But I want to make it clear to you that after you take this 5,000 yuan, you are not allowed to harass me again."

"Really? Are you willing to give us 5,000 yuan?" Ji Meilin was very excited when she heard this. "Okay, as long as you are willing to give us, we will not harass you again. We will find a way to pay back the money ourselves."

"Okay! I'll transfer it to you later. I hope you'll keep your word and stop harassing me." Xia Fanxing said, then opened her phone and transferred five thousand yuan to Ji Meilin's WeChat.

When Ji Meilin saw the five thousand yuan transferred over, she said hurriedly, "Okay, thank you, we will definitely not trouble you again."

After saying that, she quickly took Xia Chuchu and walked away.

Xia Fanxing finally breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the two of them leave.

However, she felt depressed and uncomfortable.

Why does she have such a selfish family?

Why can't she have a happy family and be loved by her parents like others?

Fortunately, she met Mu Yichen, whose parents loved her very much and gave her the love she had never had before.

Otherwise, she really felt that her life would always be gloomy.

After Ji Meilin and Xia Chuchu received 5,000 yuan, they returned home excitedly.

"Mom, that damn girl Xia Fanxing finally agreed to give us 5,000 yuan. Please transfer it to me quickly. I will pay the interest first to prevent those people from coming to make trouble again." Xia Chuchu said excitedly as she walked into the house.

Ji Meilin glanced at her coldly, "Silly girl, what's the use of these five thousand yuan? It's not even enough to pay the interest. Even if you pay it back to those people, we still owe them two hundred thousand. They won't let it go."

"What should I do? If I don't return it, they will send out my photos." Xia Chuchu said worriedly.

"It's just a few photos. What are you afraid of? If they really post them everywhere, you can say that those photos are fake, photoshopped and AI-generated, and that they are not you at all. As long as you insist that they are fake, who would dare to say anything against you?"

"Mom, do you mean that we shouldn't use this 5,000 yuan to pay off our debts?" Xia Chuchu said doubtfully.

Ji Meilin nodded, "Of course I won't pay it back. They are not legitimate loan companies. They are all illegal loan sharks. The country won't help them. So you don't have to worry about these loans. They can't do anything to you. At most, they will make a few phone calls to urge you to pay back the money."

"But then they will call everywhere, and if my friends and classmates know about it, everyone will look down on me."

"What are you afraid of? Can't you just make up a lie to deceive them when the time comes? For example, your father is sick and has a terminal illness. He needs money for treatment, and you have no choice but to take out a loan. After everyone knows your 'situation', no one will blame you, but will only sympathize with you." Ji Meilin said coldly.

"What? You want me to curse dad like this?" Xia Chuchu was stunned!

She has always known that her mother does not love her father, and even beats and scolds her father and looks down on him every day.

I didn’t expect my mother to be so cruel that she actually cursed my father to have a terminal illness.

Ji Meilin rolled her eyes in disdain. "This is just an excuse, it's not true. What are you afraid of? Otherwise, what would you say? Who would sympathize with you if you made any other excuses?"

Xia Chuchu thought about it and felt that what her mother said made sense.

He nodded, "Okay then! But what if those people come and throw paint on us?"

"How dare they! We live in a society ruled by law now. I'll install a surveillance camera at the door of my house. If they dare to make trouble, I'll call the police immediately. Now, those who owe money will be fine, but these gangsters who come to collect debts will be arrested. Humph!" Ji Meilin folded her arms across her chest, crossed her legs, and sneered complacently.

Hearing this, Xia Chuchu gave her a thumbs up and said, "Mom, you are really amazing. Even those gangsters are no match for you. So what are you going to do with the five thousand dollars?"

"Of course, I'm going to play mahjong. I want to use this money to make more money. I'm going to win tens of thousands for you. Then we'll have more and more money!" When Ji Meilin mentioned playing mahjong, her hands instantly itched and the blood in her body boiled.

"Okay then! I'll wait for your good news. After you win, give me half." Xia Chuchu was looking forward to it.

"Okay, I'll go right away." After Ji Meilin said that, she picked up her small bag, took her cell phone, and excitedly walked towards the mahjong hall downstairs.

When Xia Chuchu was lying in the living room playing games on her mobile phone, Ji Meilin came back!

As soon as she came back, she slammed the door, looking depressed.

"Mom, how is it? Did you win money?" Seeing Ji Meilin's face, Xia Chuchu asked cautiously, with a bad feeling in her heart.

"I won nothing. I had bad luck today. I lost all 5,000 yuan and even owed someone 2,000 yuan. I'm so unlucky!" After saying that, she sat down on the sofa, poured herself a glass of water, and drank it.

"What? You lost all your money?" Hearing this, Xia Chuchu was very angry. She slammed her phone onto the sofa and said angrily, "Mom, we finally got 5,000 yuan from Xia Fanxing, and you lost it all? Why didn't you leave me some?"

"How could I have known that I would be so unlucky? I originally wanted to win tens of thousands of dollars for you, but who knew that my luck was so bad today. I almost lost every time. There was nothing I could do." Ji Meilin sighed.

Xia Chuchu said anxiously: "Our only 5,000 yuan is gone, what should we do now?"

"Wait until your father gets his salary. Once he gets his salary, we will have money," said Ji Meilin.

"How much is dad's salary? Those people come to me every day to collect debts. I'm about to collapse!" Xia Chuchu was so depressed that she grabbed her hair.

"Or, how about we find an opportunity to ask Xia Fanxing for money again? If she can give us 5,000 yuan today, she can give us more tomorrow. The man she married is so rich, I don't believe she can't get it." Ji Meilin said greedily.

When Xia Fanxing was mentioned, Xia Chuchu's face was full of jealousy, "Why can this bitch marry a rich man? She is so rich, but she is only willing to give us 5,000. Mom, let's go ask her for more. She must give 200,000, otherwise she will never give up."
