To Borrow Money

"Manager Lu, it's not that I don't want to help you, but I also have no other way," CEO Lee poured tea into Lucy Lu's glass, "I'll see later, I will ask the finance department to increase your salary, indeed you have worked hard all this time. "

Lucy Lu also understood that there was no point in continuing to talk about this, she immediately stood up and left, "Sorry for interrupting CEO Lee's time, thank you."

"It's okay, I'm not helping with anything either, otherwise, try borrowing money from the bank."

"Thank You."

Lucy Lu felt a little annoyed after leaving the CEO's office, she then went to the toilet, saw that there was no one in the toilet, she then took out a pack of cigarettes and a cigarette, then lit a cigarette.

She doesn't have an addiction to smoking, she just smokes for fun. Since marrying Dean Shao, she hasn't touched cigarettes since she discovered that she really hates the smell of cigarettes. She has recently returned to smoking, so it has become a habit again.

Lucy Lu sat on the toilet smoking, her expression showing a hint of sadness.

From childhood to adulthood, he always had a proud father who worked as a judge. He also wanted to enter a general major at college, but his interest was not strong enough, in the end he chose the finance major.

In fact, he had known for a long time that his family was too 'rich', the dowry when he got married was also quite large, the family also moved to a three-story villa, he always felt that his father had quite a lot of income, so he didn't think too much about it.

Until one month ago, his father did not return home, he found out that his father had been detained after seeing the news that his father had committed large amounts of corruption.

His mother was crying, even her hair was turning white quickly.

Lucy Lu faced it quite calmly, she calmed her mother while contacting a lawyer, looking for a way to borrow a little money.

Some of her family's property had been sold, including her marital home and her car, she moved into Dean Shao's apartment trying not to feel embarrassed, but she was still two hundred million short, the other family members really scared them, let alone asking them to lend her money.

In the past half month, he had tried to contact his friends, but he had not succeeded in borrowing any money.

There were still twenty days before his father was sentenced. In 20 days, if he couldn't collect the money and return it, he was afraid that when his father got out of prison he would be very old.

Investors?

After thinking about the words that CEO Lee had just said, Lucy hesitated, took the phone from her pocket, and pressed the communication record and slid down, seeing a very familiar number.

At first, she marked Dean as her “husband”, and deliberately added the letter A in front, so he could see it immediately when he opened the note.

However, in the last three years, Dean contacted and sent her very few messages, so she changed her "husband" name to Dean. He wouldn't bother her if there was no important matter.

Lucy dialed the phone and threw the cigarette into the toilet and came out to wash her mouth.

"Brother Dean is in a meeting." The woman said the name naturally, like someone who had power over her, "Please tell me what your name is, which customer, I don't see Dean's brother saving your number."

Lucy didn't wait for him to speak and hurriedly hung up the phone, her shaking hands finally dropped the phone, after a slamming sound, she just now hurriedly picked it up.

From the broken cell phone screen, Lucy looked at his face, not knowing when her tears fell, her figure looked like she had lost her family, feeling herself very pitiful.

She and Dean had been married three years, had been through 3 seasons together, according to others they were considered old husband and wife, but he didn't even keep her number.

Lucy didn't care whether Dean would come back on Sunday.

At 17.30 in the afternoon after coming home from work, he passed the supermarket and bought fresh fruit and vegetables.

His cooking skills have always been very good. He learned from his mother. After getting married, he tried various kinds of dishes for Dean to taste, but Dean only came back once a week according to the contract. Other times the best dishes were the only ones he ate alone.

After a long time passed, Lucy became lazy about cooking. If Dean comes back at the weekend, see who will cook and divide the work, if Dean is not at home he will order a take-out package, sometimes if he is in a good mood he will cook.
