The marriage between her and Leng Sicheng was a long and ardous tale. After they got married, Gu Qingqing continued her studies as Leng Sicheng had disallowed her to work. All her ‘income’ came from him, where he only gave her money when he wanted to sleep with her. All in all, she would receive around 10,000 from Leng Sicheng monthly. Being a filial daughter, she would then hand over half of it to her mother.

She couldn’t withdraw all of the 200,000 for her brother right here, right now. In total, Gu Qingqing had managed to save 180,000 these three years after deducting her tuition fees and daily expenses. She was also not supposed to cover up for her brother’s mistakes all the time. Besides, her current relationship with Leng Sicheng was somewhat malicious, almost evil.

“200,000 is nothing. Sis, you can ask my brother-in-law to pay for me. Just one call and my problems will go away in no time!” Gu Qingshan blurted out without so much as a thought.

“I’m willing to pay, but I am also promising you that this will be the last time. If you get yourself into trouble again, remember that I have nothing to do with him anymore!” said Gu Qingqing in a furious manner.

“What did you just say?!” roared Gu Qingshan with his eyes bulging.

Qingshan is your only brother! Who is going to help him if you don’t help him?” Wu Aimei cried.

“Mom, you can’t let him off the hook that easily anymore! These three years, he’s been nothing but a load of trouble! Last time, it was his gambling, and this time he beat someone up! What if he kills someone the next time? Am I supposed to take the fall for him as well? He is almost 30 years old! Look at him! He doesn’t even have a job and all he does is create trouble for us! I will use all my 200,000 to pay for him this time! Bear in mind though. I will not help him anymore if he gets into trouble again! Don’t you ever call me, and don’t look for Leng Sicheng either!”

“If you don’t give me the money, I will go and look for my brother-in-law myself! If it was not for us, did you think that you can marry Leng Sifeng?!” Gu Qingshan screamed at the top of his lungs like a delinquent child.

“You think I wanted to marry him in the first place?!”

Gu Qingshan and Wu Aimei were taken aback and fell silent hearing what she said. All her frustration pent up frustration of him vented out in a massive blow. Nonetheless, even after the emotional plea, her brother and mother did not seem to understand what she was feeling right now. She swallowed back everything that she was about to say.

“That’s it. I will prepare 200,000 for you. I just wish that my brother will look for a job and stay out of trouble. And if he still doesn’t have enough money to support himself, then I will not complain about him. However, if he still gets himself into trouble all the time, I will never talk to him anymore!”

After the outburst, she stormed out of the hospital. Deeply disappointed in her brother and mother, she wondered to herself on where in the world would she get all that money. She already had 180,000, and if she searched the house, she might be able to get another 10,000. That left her short of another 10,000. She was left with the last option – Leng Sicheng.

It was six in the morning when she arrived home. The maid was shocked when she saw Gu Qingqing’s pale face.

“Is Leng Sicheng here?” asked Gu Qingqing.

“No,” replied the maid.

Of course, she was too naïve to think that he would be back. Right now, he must be with some other woman. When she returned to her room, she had her eyes fixed on the chandelier hanging on the ceiling. The pendulum on the grandfather’s clock swung like a metronome, humming with a steady, monotonous tick.

It was close to seven. Leng Sicheng should be awake by now. Taking a deep breath, she dialed his number.
