It was unrealistic to use Gu Linzheng’s money. Tang Chi would not allow herself to borrow the money from the Gu family.
It seemed like she could only borrow the money from her own parents.
Borrowing money from her parents was only a loan. Tang Chi was comfortable with that.
Her family condition was quite good for a relatively small town. If she was not mistaken, her family should have a million in savings.
Then, Tang Chi thought of what Gu Linzheng’s mum said about that pink diamond. Just tens of millions, not expensive…
Stop this nonsense at once!
Needless to say, her mother was definitely managing the financial aspects of her family. Thinking of this, Tang Chi craftily spot her mother’s WeChat and sent her a message.
Chi of Tang Family: [Dear mother, are you asleep now? Can I tell you something after you wake up?]
Chi of Tang Family: [I want to train in wrestling, but the wrestling centers require a registration fee of hundreds of thousands. May I borrow a hundred and fifty thousand? I will return you double the money after I win the championship!]
Tang Chi was a very straight forward person and spoke her mind. However, she sent out these two messages using a tone that shows restraint.
In the past, she would say something directly like: [I, Tang Chi, need money!]
Her mother should be awake now that it was seven-thirty. Tang Chi would get a reply very soon.
Mother: [You stinky liar! Do you think you can ask me for a hundred thousand when you knew my daughter married a rich guy? What wrestling training? It’s a joke that my daughter’s thin limbs can wrestle. Do your homework before you try to cheat people’s money. Do I look like some ignorant middle-aged woman? I have no money, scram!]
Tang Chi: …
???
Chi of Tang Family: [Mum, I’m not a scammer, it’s me, I’m the one who sent you that message!]
[The other party has refused to accept your message.]
This message meant that her mother blocked her on WeChat.
Tang Chi: T.T
She quickly got out of bed, walked outside, searched for her mother’s number in her address book and called her.
Seeing her father was still the same father and her mother was still the same mother, Tang Chi had no mental blockage.
Soon enough, the call was connected and the woman who answered had a clear and elegant voice, ” Now what? WeChat didn’t work and now you are calling me?”
Tang Chi quickly answered, “Mum, it’s really me!”
The line went silent for two seconds, “Were you abducted? Is the kidnapper threatening you for money?”
“No…”
Tang Chi was soaked in her sweat, “I’m serious, I want to train in wrestling. If you don’t know what wrestling is, you can search online.”
She spoke with the same voice. Tang Chi’s obedient way of speaking made it hard to determine that she had already changed souls. Her mother was still doubtful, “Are you out of your mind? Why do you want to wrestle all of a sudden? What for? Are you afraid the Gu family will be violent towards you?”
Tang Chi, “…”
Tang Chi could hear her father talking with a comforting voice beside, “Come on, your daughter rarely asks you for something, you just lend it to her. She must be embarrassed to ask her husband for such a big amount. Besides us as parents, who else can she rely on?”
Tang Chi’s eyes almost flooded with tears. This was her father, her father who wanted the best for her!
The next second, her father continued on, “What if she asked her husband and he thought that we are trying to squeeze money from their family the minute they got married? He might dump her if he’s pissed enough. What if she cannot think straight and commits suicide? This is your own daughter!”
Tang Chi, “…”
This was her own father.
