Chapter 2233: Borrow Money

Editor: Atlas Studios

The designer was stunned for a moment. This was the first time he had ever seen Daniel’s female companion take the initiative to offer to make payment. In the past, the women Daniel brought with him would ask Daniel to buy them a lot of clothes, wishing that they could buy out his entire store. He smiled and said, “Mr. Daniel will pay the bill. Miss, don’t worry about it.”

“I have to pay for the dress I like. Just tell me how much it costs,” Qiao Mei said firmly.

The designer hesitated for a moment. The cost of making this dress was very high. He would already need to charge a VIP customer like Jessica 120,000 dollars. He said tentatively, “The ironing, transportation and manufacturing cost come up to a total of 130,000 dollars.”

The amount of 130,000 dollars was enough to buy two houses of more than 100 square meters in the city center of Sky City. This was a sum that an ordinary family would never be able to earn in their entire lives. He was a fashion designer and he had a good eye for clothes. One look and he could tell that Qiao Mei’s clothes were from the generic brands available at the mall. The whole set might not have even cost 100 dollars.

Other than being more particular about her jewelry, Qiao Mei only needed her clothes to be comfortable. This was not a peaceful city. If she dressed up like a rich person, she would get targeted. She liked to swipe her card, but she did not have a high spending limit, only about 50,000 dollars. This amount was definitely enough for her daily expenses. She just did not expect to be buying luxury goods today.

“I’m really sorry. I came here in a hurry today. Please wait for me.” Qiao Mei ran to Xia Zhe’s room next door while still wearing the dress and knocked on the door.

Xia Zhe opened the door and was stunned when he saw her in the outfit. He had never seen Qiao Mei dressed like this and she looked as beautiful as an elf.

“Mr. Fang, do you have money? Lend me 100,000 dollars. I want to buy this dress,” Qiao Mei said to Xia Zhe in the capital’s dialect.

Seeing that Qiao Mei was about to say something else, he quickly tilted his body to the side to let her in. Qiao Mei immediately saw the six bodyguards standing in the room. They almost took up the entire room and made her as if there was not enough air inside.

“Why are there so many people? Do they stay by your side every day?” Qiao Mei asked in surprise.

“There weren’t so many of them previously but because of the upcoming party, they added more people because they’re worried that I would escape.” After saying that, Xia Zhe took out his card from his bag. There was no spending limit on this card, so Qiao Mei could buy whatever she wanted.

“I won’t spend money wastefully. I’ll pay you after I go back to my own place. Let me write you an IOU.” Qiao Mei went to his desk and picked up a pen and paper to write a bunch of words on a piece of paper. The bodyguards only understood the local language and could not read Qiao Mei’s handwriting at all.

“What are you looking for? Come and look for me at 1 a.m.” Qiao Mei put the note in Xia Zhe’s hand. After looking at it, Xia Zhe casually threw it into the burning fireplace. “On account that we’re from the same hometown, there’s no need for an IOU for this small sum of money. Just treat it as a gift from me to you.”

Even if these people could not understand what they were saying, there would still be people who could recognize the words on the paper. He could not leave any traces behind. Xia Zhe stood in front of his desk and quietly pointed to a few words on the document. Qiao Mei immediately understood what Xia Zhe meant.

When Daniel heard the sounds, he walked in just in time to see a piece of white paper turn to ashes.

“What are you burning in broad daylight? What are you doing here?” Daniel asked as he looked at Qiao Mei.

“I came to borrow money from Mr. Fang to buy a dress. I like this dress very much.” After saying that, Qiao Mei took Xia Zhe’s card and left without looking back.

Daniel understood what Qiao Mei meant. She did not want him to give her anything and did not want to get too close to him. She only accepted his car because he had destroyed one of her cars. It was only fair.

Did this make Qiao Mei a spoiled brat? In Daniel’s eyes, she was very cute and she was clearly very principled! However, she did not borrow money from him, but from Xia Zhe! This was what Daniel was unhappy with.

“Fang Chen, you’re about to become my brother-in-law. My sister can’t tolerate betrayal and neither can I. No one in our family can. I hope you know this,” Daniel said to Xia Zhe sternly.

Xia Zhe ignored him. He picked up a document and casually flipped through it, but in reality, he did not even look at a single word.

After returning to her room and paying the designer, Qiao Mei could finally lie on the bed and rest for a while. Qiao Mei thought of Daniel’s expression just now and found it very funny. She also wanted to say to Daniel, “You’re already too engrossed in your role.”

Brother-in-law? Their entire family was dreaming! Xia Zhe belonged to her in this life! He would be her family’s ghost in death! He could never be with Jessica!
