"Kid, casually lying isn't a good habit, you know," Li Jiniang said in a different accent to Li Meng, "All the texts in your phone, they're about borrowing money. I bet you've swindled quite a bit, haven't you?"
"No, no, no!" Li Meng hurriedly denied, "I did borrow money, but they didn't give it to me!"
No one knew who had given him such courage. The text messages clearly showed evidence of loans and receipts, yet Li Meng still craftily denied it.
"Honey, I need to pay rent today. Can you lend me 2000 yuan? I'll pay you back in a couple of days once I get reimbursed for the teaching aids I'm buying for the professor. April 3rd, 4:22 PM," Li Jiniang saw the exchange of texts with Yao Shanshan and had Kang Siyin read it aloud, time and all.
"I'll give you 2500. It's been transferred to your bank account, check if it's enough. Don't starve yourself because of buying things for others. April 3rd, 4:30 PM."
