Chapter 916

Borrowing is a bottomless pit. You're robbing Peter to pay Paul. If you're always thinking about patching things up, one day the snowball will get bigger and bigger and eventually crush you.

Finally, Zhou Yingzi was crushed by the snowball of her debts.

She owed a total of more than 500,000 yuan in loans.

This is an astronomical sum of money for someone who has only recently entered the workforce.

Zhou Yingzi was filled with anxiety and fear. She received daily reminders to repay the loan, but she simply couldn't pay it back.

It's already a favor that her parents don't ask her for money; there's no way they would lend her any.

At the same time, Zhou Yingzi's mind was on the verge of collapse.

Besides being burdened by huge loans, Zhou Yingzi felt increasingly worthless and unworthy of Qiu Zhinan, feeling like trash compared to him.

And he's a piece of trash who can't even pay back his debts.

Zhou Yingzi finally broke down and chose to commit suicide by jumping off a building.

Task panel:

1. Break free from Qiu Zhinan's control and take revenge on him. Completing the task will grant you 400 Time Power.

2. Pay off all outstanding debts. Completing this task will earn you 300 Time Points.

When Yu Muhuai arrived, it was just as Zhou Yingzi was about to end her life after her breakdown.

Zhou Yingzi ran to the roof of a tall building.

In her previous life, she took a leap like that, falling and getting her face disfigured and bleeding profusely.

However, when J called Qiu Zhinan, he refused to come over at all, only saying that the two had already broken up.

Zhou Yingzi's parents' first reaction was not sadness, but to scold her for being shameful, saying that she had committed suicide after owing so much money, bringing shame to the Zhou family.

As Yu Muhuai was thinking, his phone suddenly rang.

She took out her phone; it was a message from Qiu Zhinan.

“Yingzi, my car broke down again, and the manufacturer towed it away. I’ve been having a lot of worries lately, so I might have neglected your feelings. Please don’t mind.”

Qiu Zhinan explained his words and actions because Zhou Yingzi sent him several messages before he was about to jump off the building.

"Zhi Nan, I am a worthless person and I am not worthy of someone as radiant as you."

"Zhi Nan, you are so outstanding. Compared to you, I am nothing."

"I feel like there's no place for me in this world."

"."

This message seemed a bit off. Qiu Zhinan was worried that Zhou Yingzi might do something foolish, so he sent the message to offer her some token comfort.

After all, she was someone he could easily control, someone from whom he could get so much money and satisfy his desire for control.

Qiu Zhinan believed that Zhou Yingzi still had value that could be further exploited.

Yu Muhuai did not rush to reply to the other party.

She took her phone and started scrolling through their chat history.

After skimming through their conversation, Yu Muhuai was certain that Zhou Yingzi had encountered a form of PUA (Pick-Up Artist) manipulation.

PUA stands for pick-up artist. In the past, PUA mainly meant a master at flirting and picking up girls and men.

Or you could say they're love scammers, scumbags who cheat on their partners and their money.

However, as people gain a better understanding of PUA, many behaviors can be categorized as falling under the umbrella of PUA.

For example, parents may use psychological manipulation (PUA) on their children, employees may encounter PUA in the workplace, and even teachers and senior students in schools may use PUA on ordinary students. Nowadays, PUA no longer just refers to flirting and having sex with women; it can also refer to controlling and restraining one's target through various languages ​​and behaviors.

This brainwashes the target, causing them to belittle themselves, feel extremely inadequate, and develop the idea that "I am worthless and useless, but you are still so good to me, so I will listen to whatever you say."

Qiu Zhinan used this tactic against Zhou Yingzi.

At first, he showed off his affluent life and rich inner world on his WeChat Moments, displaying a whole host of virtues that made Zhou Yingzi feel utterly inadequate in terms of her life.

Then he began to approach Zhou Yingzi, expressing his feelings for her and his desire to date her.

Zhou Yingzi has always lacked self-confidence, so she was naturally flattered.

This relationship was unequal from the start, which made Zhou Yingzi feel even more inferior and want to meet Qiu Zhinan's needs as much as possible, even to the point of being obedient to him.

During their interactions, Qiu Zhinan would occasionally reveal his weaknesses and use his past experiences to gain Zhou Yingzi's sympathy.

For example, the parents have a bad relationship, the father only cares about making money and ignores him and his mother, and also has affairs outside.

For example, his ex-girlfriend was only after his money; she was a vain woman who made him very sad.

And so on.

When her parents have a strained relationship, Zhou Yingzi's maternal instincts and saintly aura are triggered, and she wants to use herself to warm Qiu Zhinan and help him heal his inner wounds.

It's even simpler to say that his ex-girlfriend only liked money.

As a woman who is both insecure and concerned about her image, Zhou Yingzi would naturally try her best to distance herself from Qiu Zhinan in order to prove that she truly loves him and not want him to think that she is after his money.

Although Yu Muhuai has never actually met Qiu Zhinan, he can deduce it based solely on Zhou Yingzi's memories.

Qiu Zhinan is not a rich second-generation at all.

Since Qiu Zhinan and Zhou Yingzi started dating, they have always taken taxis when they go out, and Zhou Yingzi has never seen him drive.

At first, Zhou Yingzi asked out of curiosity, but Qiu Zhinan's face immediately fell, showing great dissatisfaction.

He said in a very sorrowful tone, "Yingzi, it turns out you're no different from those other women; you're just after my money."

I thought you were the most special one, but it turns out I was wrong.

After saying that, Qiu Zhinan prepared to turn around and leave.

Zhou Yingzi panicked. She had no idea that her casual question would elicit such a strong reaction.

She rushed forward, trying to grab Qiu Zhinan's hand, but to her surprise, he was determined to ignore her and shook off her hand.

Then Qiu Zhinan walked to the roadside, hailed a taxi, and left.

Zhou Yingzi kept calling and texting, apologizing profusely in a very sincere tone, and almost burst into tears.

Two days later, Qiu Zhinan finally answered Zhou Yingzi's call.

After the call connected, he remained silent for a moment before asking, "Do you know you were wrong?"

Zhou Yingzi didn't have time to think it through. She was already very happy that the other party was still paying attention to her, so she quickly nodded and said, "I was wrong, I was wrong, Zhinan, I was really wrong, I'm sorry."

"Where did you go wrong?"

Zhou Yingzi thought for a moment and said, "I was wrong to be nosy and to ask you about the car."

Zhi Nan, believe me, I'm different from other women. I love you not because of your money, but simply because you are you. Whether you drive or not, I love you!

Hearing this, Qiu Zhinan's tone softened slightly.
