The next day, news of Jiang Pengfei running away exploded in the circle.

Several groups of people came to stake out the Jiang Family's Old Western-style house.

Fortunately, Zhu Suosuo changed her clothes last night and returned to the Expo Riverside area.

Otherwise, if she had woken up late this morning, she might have been cornered in the house by debt collectors.

Chen Cheng and Jiang Nansun went to have breakfast together, which Eleven had prepared and brought over herself.

Jiang Nansun packed her things and prepared to leave, but Chen Cheng called out to her.

"Wait a moment."

"Huh?" Jiang Nansun turned to look at him, and seeing him walk quickly upstairs, she frowned and waited where she was.

Jiang Nansun had already discussed every detail of how to handle the family matters with Chen Cheng last night and just now during breakfast.

She had also chatted on the phone with Zou Yu for a bit.

She would go back today to get the stock account from Old Jiang, and then Chen Cheng would help her liquidate the stocks that hadn't been forcibly liquidated yet.

In reality, the stocks bought on margin had already been forcibly liquidated, and the remaining positions were spread across three stocks, averaging less than eight million each; it was just a matter of a ten-thousand-share order.

But Jiang Nansun wanted to minimize the losses.

Chen Cheng agreed verbally; once the account was obtained, he would directly set up automatic trading to sell them.

Then there were some minor matters; Jiang Nansun also needed to make a trip to the school, and afterwards, she would go back to keep an eye on the old man.

Before long, Chen Cheng came down, holding a stack of red banknotes in his hand.

He walked up to Jiang Nansun and handed them to her, "Here~"

Jiang Nansun was stunned, "Why are you giving me money?"

The two had agreed that since they were going to pretend to lose the house, Chen Cheng wouldn't need to put up money for now.

They would wait for Old Jiang and the Old Madam to say they were selling, and then he would pay to buy it.

Chen Cheng laughed helplessly, pulled over the bag on her shoulder, and stuffed the money inside, "You were even stingy when treating me to rice noodles; you must be at your wit's end, right?"

"With such a thing happening at home, no one has the time to care whether you have money or not."

"Also, you didn't go home all night; taking some money back will at least give you an excuse."

"Just say you went to borrow it from a classmate... woo woo~"

Jiang Nansun felt a warmth in her heart instantly, a smile playing on her lips. She stood on tiptoe, cupped Chen Cheng's face, and kissed him right on the lips.

It was passionate and romantic.

If it weren't for the fact that she really had things to do, she would have wanted to engage in another round of "live combat" with Chen Cheng.

[Ding~ Jiang Nansun's favorability +2]

Chen Cheng was also taken aback when he heard the notification.

Being a "simp" is actually useful, right?

However, he had already "eaten and wiped clean" Jiang Nansun, so he couldn't be counted as a simp; at most, he could be considered 69...

After a long while, their lips parted. Chen Cheng looked smilingly at the flushed Jiang Nansun, "Have you fallen for me, fallen so deeply you can't extricate yourself?"

Jiang Nansun was instantly embarrassed and angry, hitting him with her pink fist, "Dream on~"

After saying this, a sweet smile curled the corners of her mouth.

"Then I'm leaving."

"Wait a second," Chen Cheng grabbed her, found a car key on the entryway cabinet, and handed it to her, "Drive this Audi back; it's more convenient to have a car."

"I haven't driven this car much; your parents probably haven't seen it."

Since he was going to "simp," he would do it to the end. If he made her feel good, then everything would be easy to handle in the future.

This was Chen Cheng's flexible and ever-changing principle for picking up girls.

Look, hadn't he made Jiang Nansun feel good?

Her favorability was only 88 before she came last night, and it was already 94 now.

Whether it was "simping" in the physical sense or the psychological sense, you tell me, was it useful or not?

Jiang Nansun took the car keys, nodded, and left Chen Cheng's courtyard with a very joyful heart.

It was as if the things happening to the Jiang Family had no impact on her at all.

As soon as she sat in the car and glanced at her phone, she saw that Chen Cheng had also transferred twenty thousand yuan to her via the green bubble.

[A reward for you!]

Jiang Nansun looked at the screen, her lips curling slightly. She looked back at the direction of the study on the second floor of the Old Western-style house and muttered, "You do not let me down, I will not let you down."

Jiang Nansun was clever; the fifty thousand yuan in cash from just now was for her to go back and account for things.

This twenty thousand was transferred by that stinky man because he was worried she had no money in her pocket and lacked a sense of security, so he gave it to her to keep on hand.

[Ding~ Jiang Nansun's favorability +1]

Chen Cheng chuckled as he watched the notification; it seemed that throwing money around wasn't just effective on gold diggers, but also on literary girls.

Not long after Jiang Nansun left, Chen Cheng called for Chen Guosheng and asked him to stick a printed A4 sheet of paper on the door of the Jiang Family's house.

It notified creditors to come to the Jiang Family's house on Fuxing Road at 3:00 PM tomorrow to negotiate debt issues, and the signature left was Jiang Nansun's name.

Jiang Nansun returned to the Expo, parking the car in the spot Chen Cheng had told her about.

After turning off the engine, Jiang Nansun sat in the car and let out several long breaths to relieve her tension.

Dai Yin had called her several times, but she hadn't answered, and that was last night and this morning as well.

After her nervousness subsided slightly, she picked up her bag, got out of the car, and went upstairs.

As soon as Dai Yin heard the doorbell, she rushed to the door. Once she opened it, her hanging heart finally settled.

"Oh my, my ancestor, where did you run off to? I called all night and you didn't answer."

Jiang Nansun's expression was 'cold'; she didn't look at her, changing her shoes on her own.

"Where could I have gone? To find classmates and friends to borrow money, of course."

Jiang Nansun had been successfully brainwashed by Chen Cheng and was prepared to keep it from everyone, including the Old Madam and Dai Yin.

An expression of embarrassment flashed across Dai Yin's face, "Then... did you borrow any?"

Her husband owed money, and it had reached the point where her daughter had to go out and borrow money; as a mother, she found it hard to compose herself.

Jiang Nansun opened her bag, took out the fifty thousand yuan that Chen Cheng had taken from the safe, and handed it to Dai Yin.

"Not much, only fifty thousand~"

"Mom, you take this first. If you go out and run into debt collectors, give them a little to hold them off for now."

Dai Yin looked at the red banknotes in her hand, somewhat dazed.

Seeing that she didn't ask anything else, Jiang Nansun breathed a slight sigh of relief.

She went to the kitchen island to pour herself a glass of water and asked, "Is Dad back?"

This question was for both Dai Yin and the Old Madam, who was sitting by the floor-to-ceiling window, staring blankly at the Huangpu River scenery.

Dai Yin shook her head, "Ever since he went out last night, we haven't been able to contact him again."

Jiang Nansun's face stiffened instantly. She took out her phone, ready to call Jiang Pengfei, but a call came in first.

It was Zhang Anren calling. Jiang Nansun was stunned for a moment, but she still answered the phone.

It turned out that Jiang Pengfei had run to the school to find Zhang Anren.

Jiang Nansun rushed to the school again.

After finding Zhang Anren, she discovered that his expression was not good.

Jiang Nansun asked with a blank expression, "What did my dad say to you?"

Zhang Anren looked impatient, "What else could he do? He came to borrow money from me."

"You didn't know he came to find me?"

Jiang Nansun raised her eyebrows faintly, "Sorry, things have been very chaotic at home these past two days, and I haven't had a chance to tell them about us yet."

"You just don't have to pay him any mind."

Zhang Anren was speechless, "Nansun, this is school; your dad came to my office to find me."

"He said to me in front of all my colleagues that he is your father, and he wanted money from me."

"He even asked me if my parents had any money."
