Xu Wei's rental room was about 60 square meters, with one kitchen, one bathroom, one living room, and a bedroom. They sat on the sofa in the living room, and Li Xianyu listened to Xu Wei explain.
"I took out a loan with my naked selfies as collateral. If I don't pay off my debt, they'll spread my photos online and send them to my family, relatives and school." Xu Wei's eyes were slightly red, her tone full of helplessness. "But I can't repay the money, the interest is too high. They've been calling me everyday to harass me, and even called my parents. This is a warning that if I don't pay back, my pictures will appear in my parents' inbox next time."
Li Xianyu frowned, he was no stranger to such loans. It was a network of high-interest loans specially designed for women, and countless female college students suffered from them. If they can't repay their loans in time, they will be threatened and humiliated by these cads.
"How could you borrow such a loan?" Li Xianyu scratched his head in frustration. "Forget it, let's not talk about this, what happened with Zhang Mingyu?"
If the victim was a female college student who he didn't know, Li Xianyu will not sympathize with her at all, but will also scoff twice: "Silly!"
After all, the relationship between the lender and borrower are of a dog and his b***h.
He and Xu Wei have known each other for many years. Xu Wei was not such a materialistic girl.
"Zhang Mingyu promised me that as long as I dated him for a week, he would pay off my debt. That night…" Xu Wei's pretty face suddenly paled. "It really is none of my business, he just died. I was terrified at that time and ran back. Li Xianyu, please don't call the police, otherwise my loan would be revealed, please."
Li Xianyu keen's perception told him that there was something wrong. If it's just that, why would Zhang Mingyu yell at him to run? After the man's death, there was no reasonable explanation of why he would have this persistence.
He could not ask the question, but buried it in his heart.
"How much do you owe?"
"I borrowed 30,000 dollars, but now with interest it's 70,000 dollars."
70,000 dollars was no small number to Xu Wei who came from an average family. No wonder she agreed to use sex to repay the money.
"70,000 is a little too much, but I still have some money on hand," Li Xianyu murmured.
As soon as Xu Wei heard this, her eyes brightened. She moved her ample buttocks close to Li Xianyu. Her gaze was tempting and whispered, "Are you really willing to help me? I'm sure I can't pay for it, but I can make it up to you in another way."
She subtly pulled down the collar of her shirt.
"I can be with you for a week, too," Xu Wei said seductively, clinging to Li Xianyu.
"Really?"
"Mm-hmm." Xu Wei's voice was gentle.
She has fallen to this point.
Li Xianyu's forehead twitched, green tendons appearing. He was deeply disappointed. "How did you become like this?"
Xu Wei's eyes suddenly turned red. "What can I do? I am a female student who is unable to pay back the money. What else can I do?"
After a moment of silence, Li Xianyu sighed. "Let me go to the toilet first. Let's think about how to solve the problem."
The 200,000 dollars his biological father left him could solve the problem, but even if it was a good friend, this was a huge sum. He had to think about it.
The bathroom was small, but clean and tidy. Girls were generally animals who valued cleanliness, especially girls who were suitable for marriage, so otakus normally liked obedient and gentle girls.
Li Xianyu thought to himself while responding to nature's call.
After clearing his bladder, Li Xianyu washed his face, his face in the mirror was handsome, only his eyes had no light to them, and his eyebags were rather severe...
He still decided to lend money to Xu Wei. At the very least, they had been friends for nine years, Li Xianyu really did not want to see her fall to this point. People may choose the wrong way, but when you see your friends go the wrong way, you reach out, and maybe she will be saved.
Li Xianyu took a paper towel to wipe his face. Suddenly, his eyes burned. He instinctively pressed against his eyes with the tissue paper, which stimulated the secretion of the lacrimal gland, and tears rolled out.
This feeling was...
In the mirror, a young woman covered in blood suddenly appeared, standing behind Li Xianyu. She lowered her head, and the distance between them was almost non-existent.
Chills ran through Li Xianyu's whole body, his face turned deathly pale. He looked at the woman in the mirror standing right behind his back, but he did not dare to turn his head.
At this point, the woman raised her head, and shed blood red tears.
AHHH!!
Li Xianyu couldn't hold it in, and shrieked for the second time today.
The woman in the mirror vanished creepily, and his eyes were no longer burning.
In the bathroom, in the mirror, there was only Li Xianyu's trembling figure. His fear did not dissipate, but drowned him instead.
At a glance, he recognized that the woman was Xu Wei!
Xu Wei?!
Did she become a ghost? Did she just give him a warning?!
Then who is in the living room?
Who the hell is she?!
"What happened?" Xu Wei called from the living room.
Li Xianyu didn't reply but scooped up handfuls of water to wash his face, his hands trembling. He muttered in his heart, Stay calm, stay calm!
Men should always remain calm and composed even if a mountain crumbles before him. Maintain the poker face, don't panic, don't panic...
No wonder, no wonder he felt that something was wrong.
Xu Wei and he were very good friends, and she was cheerful and optimistic. But carefully recalling Xu Wei's behavior after entering the room, Li Xianyu did find her too calm. Also, she had been keeping a cordial distance from him since he came in as if they were simply acquaintances. It was not like the usual Xu Wei, who liked to tease him by calling him a pervert.
Furthermore, since he knew Xu Wei, who had been an exemplary student in terms of character and academics, and someone that classmates and teachers all praised. During middle school, Li Xianyu also had a crush on her, when he developed an interest in the opposite sex.
Now, Xu Wei not only took out such a loan, but also in order to pay off her debt, sold her body Zhang Mingyu. She was now even blatantly trading with him, as calm as a professional escort.
How could the girl I had a crush on in junior high school be such a slut?
No wonder Zhang Mingyu said "run". He probably died at the hands of this fake Xu Wei.
So, the Xu Wei I know is probably already dead. In spite of grief, anger, and distress in his heart, logic told him that he should do a strategic retreat at this time.
He took a deep breath and after washing his face and strode out of the toilet.
"What happened to you just now?" Xu Wei frowned.
"No-nothing. I slipped and almost fell, and hit my head on the wall." Li Xianyu said stiffly, "It hurt a lot."
"Don't worry, the money you owe, I'll help you. I'll get those pictures and videos back. Next time… Next time don't take out such loans again. Don't involve yourself in that kind of trade. I can help you this time but I won't be able to always cover for you. I'll get the money first, wait here." Li Xianyu's expression was stiff.
He walked briskly to the door, holding the doorknob in his hand. As he breathed a long sigh of relief, his waist was suddenly tight and he was hugged from behind. The woman behind him laughed coquettishly and said, "Since you are here, wouldn't you want to do something?"
Li Xianyu's scalp grew numb.
