Translator: 549690339
After leaving Old Madam Lu’s place, Qiao Yin drove home. As she was about to reach her neighborhood, she spotted a group of people chasing someone from afar.
As she got closer, she was stunned to realize that the person being chased was her own father, Qiao Haidong!
The night was deep, and her father was running so desperately that he suddenly fell. The group immediately surrounded him, landing blows and kicks.
Shocked, Qiao Yin sped up the car, honked the horn vehemently, and then rushed out of her car towards Qiao Haidong.
“Dad!”
Qiao Haidong’s face was bleeding profusely. Looking at his daughter, his voice trembled with a sob, “Yinyin, they are here to collect money from me. I have none left, so they started beating me up… I… I just thought I could hide at your place…”
Seeing her father in that condition, Qiao Yin felt a bitter sensation in her heart. As she helped him up and wiped away his blood, she suggested, “Dad, let’s call the police!”
The debt collectors burst into laughter upon hearing this, “Ha! Do you think we’re scared of the police? Good timing, Qiao Haidong, your daughter’s here. Ask her to give us the money! If she doesn’t, we’ll make both of you cripples today!”
Qiao Haidong flinched slightly, then pleadingly looked at his daughter, “Yinyin, they’ve beaten me multiple times. I really can’t bear it any longer. Could you please ask Lu Lingche for a loan? We can repay him later…it’s not like we won’t pay him back. Please, save my life.”
Unable to hold back, Qiao Yin burst into tears, “Dad, do you think he’s a saint? It’s not that I don’t want to borrow. I simply can’t.”
“Well, if all else fail, ask the old lady from his family. She must have a lot of savings. She really likes you, she’ll definitely lend you some. Otherwise, they’ll beat me to death, Yinyin.”
Qiao Yin shook her head fiercely. Looking at her father’s graying hair and his face covered in blood, she finally gritted her teeth and faced the debt collectors.
Against the backdrop of the night, her crisp and resolute voice echoed, “I will repay the debt my father owes! You must not hit him anymore!”
The debt collectors scoffed, “On what grounds? What will you use to repay? Sell yourself? You are quite pretty, Qiao Haidong, your daughter looks like a movie star. How have you kept her hidden away? How about letting our boss enjoy her company?”
Qiao Haidong suddenly leapt up, yelling in rage, “Qian Lao Si, watch your filthy mouth! I owe you money, fine. But if any of you dares to lay a finger on my daughter, you won’t get a single penny, and I’ll make sure you’re dead with me!” freew ebnove l.com
Qian Lao Si grew impatient, “You think I’m scared? I’m warning you, if you don’t pay up, not just your daughter, we’ll cripple your son too! Galaxy International High School, Class 2 of Year 1, Qiao Jiasen, right?”
Qiao Haidong was furious, “You dare!”
But Qiao Yin stood tall and calmly retorted, “So you’re Qian Lao Si? Did your boss order you to collect the debt by forcing us to our deaths? If we die, who’s going to repay you? Do you think your boss appreciates your intelligence?”
The expression on Qian Lao Si’s face darkened, “What’s wrong with my intelligence? Do you think you’re smarter?”
“Of course!”
Qiao Yin nodded, “I graduated from Hua University and was the top student in the Computer Science Department.”
Qian Lao Si was taken aback, “You graduated from Hua University? The number one university in the country?”
“What else could it be?”
