Chapter 1843: Collecting on a Debt
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“Do you know how difficult that particular year was for my family after I stole the money and gave it to you! My father gave me a beating and almost broke my leg! My mother fell sick and we didn’t even have the money to send her for treatment! I treated you like a brother! What do you take me for! I’ve really misjudged you all these years!” Wu Duo became more and more agitated as he spoke and almost burst into tears.
Qiao Mei stood at the side and wanted to clap and cheer for Wu Duo. It was such a pity that he did not become an actor. She originally just wanted to find an excuse to help Wu Duo clear his name. She did not expect Wu Duo to really put on a good show and be able to almost deceive everyone around him.
A teacher came running from afar and said sternly, “Hey! What are you doing! Who’s fighting!’ Visit no(v)eLb(i)n.com for the best novel reading experience
Sun Jia, the female classmate who went to get the teacher, pointed at Wu Duo and said, “It’s him! Professor! He hit Xie Jing and said all kinds of bad things about Xie Jing! Professor, you know that Xie Jing has been an outstanding student all these years. He can’t have done those things.”
“Xie Jing is a runaway debtor! I just want to get back my money!” Wu Duo said righteously.
“Xie Jing owes you money? What nonsense! How can it be that Xie Jing owes money to someone like you?” Sun Jia looked at Wu Duo with a mocking expression.
Wu Duo stood rooted to the spot out of embarrassment. He really did not have much money on him now, at most 30 dollars. There was no need to bring so much money to school. The food in the school canteen was very cheap and 30 dollars was already enough for him to eat at the canteen for a month.
Qiao Mei took out a watch from her pocket. In order to celebrate her four students successfully entering their ideal university, she had specially bought them a gift each to celebrate the event. During the enrollment period, she had gone off to deliver the baby, so she had not managed to pass them the gifts yet.
“Look at how careless you are. Your uncle came to look for me just now and asked me to bring this to school and give it to you. You should try to improve your memory!” Qiao Mei said reproachfully.
Some people recognized the brand of this watch. It was the latest watch released for sale by Hai Qin this year. Each watch cost 300 dollars!
Furthermore, it was a limited edition watch, which meant one might not be able to buy it even with money. Only long-time VIPs of the brand could get their hands on one.
“Why is your watch with this female classmate! What’s your relationship with her! Why does your uncle know this female classmate! Aren’t you going to explain yourself!” Sun Jia questioned.
“Schoolmate, why are you so curious about everything? His uncle is our high school homeroom teacher. We used to be from the same class. Then what’s your relationship with Xie Jing? Why are you so eager to help him? Are you from the same hometown as him? Or are you ex-classmates in high school?” Li Xue asked sharply.
“l... l...” For a moment, Sun Jia did not know how to explain herself. She was just someone who had a crush on Xie Jing and she was not even from the same faculty as him. They were not in the same year.
“Enough! Stop arguing! This group, come to the office with me! The rest of you, go back to class!” the teacher shouted..
