Quick Wear: I'm Really Not a Scumbag

Zhao Yuqin was thinking about what Chen Yunnan had just said all the way home. In fact, she had already made up her mind not to have any contact with Chen Yunnan from that day on, but no one expected that an accident would happen to his father.

Her father's debts exploded. Not only had his family savings been squandered by him, but even his own betrothal gift was no exception. Now the family had to sell another house to barely pay off the debt.

But the whole family was exhausted, and she would probably have to pay back Chen Yunan's betrothal gift herself. She had always been extravagant with her money, and her meager salary was basically gone. She would have to live a frugal life from now on. All this was thanks to her father. The three of them had worked hard to prevent their mother from divorcing her.

Her salary is simply not enough to maintain her current lifestyle, so she asks her parents for some money every once in a while.

If mom and dad divorced, their family would be completely ruined, and the days to come would be visibly difficult. After all, the family's life had been stable for so many years thanks to her mom's careful planning.

Zhao Yuqin was really tired. Her originally happy family suddenly had so many problems, and the sense of superiority in her heart was completely gone.

But should she really marry Chen Yunnan? Zhao Yuqin felt like she had jumped into another fire pit. Chen Yunnan's family conditions were really too poor. His parents bought the car with the pension money given by his brother, and his university tuition and living expenses were also paid by his brother.

There is no house, only a self-built house in the countryside.

After thinking about it over and over again, she still couldn't bring herself to accept Chen Yunnan. She would definitely find a way to pay back the 300,000 yuan betrothal gift as soon as possible.

It’s not that she doesn’t want to suffer with Chen Yunnan, but she doesn’t dare to take the risk. Can a person who is so indifferent to his own brother really be wholeheartedly devoted to her in the future?

He had seen clearly how Chen's parents treated his sister-in-law that day. Although they favored Chen Yunnan, their inherent preference for boys over girls was still evident. If he became a full-time housewife and gave birth to a daughter, he was afraid they wouldn't treat him well either.

Forget it, she didn't want to gamble her whole life on a man's conscience.

—Chen Family

Ever since the incident of calling the police, Chen Zhenfan and Wu Ruoyi seemed to have behaved themselves. Not only did they not go out to play cards, they also cared about Chen Yunnan all day long.

It seemed as if he was afraid that he would be depressed.

Wu Ruoyi heard Chen Yunan and Zhao Yuqin talking on the phone last night. Today, she saw that his expression had indeed improved a lot. Could it be that the two of them had reconciled?

She was a little unsure, but still told Chen Zhenfan about it.

Sure enough, Yunan's expression looked very normal, and even a little happy.

"Son, have you reconciled with Yuqin?" Chen Zhenfan asked tentatively.

Chen Yunan nodded, "It should be soon."

He brought up the matter of the betrothal gift again.

Chen Zhenfan was a little puzzled. "Their family is so well-off, they shouldn't be short of your 288,000 yuan, right? It seems they've really run into trouble."

Everyone in her family has a stable job. I heard that they have two or three houses, so they must be well-off.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have raised her daughter so pampered. My son said that she spends money lavishly and has no shortage of money.

"Who says people with a good family background won't be short of money? Even rich people have times when they can't make ends meet. Besides, we live in a society ruled by law. If there's really no chance for us and we can't get married, I can still sue her and get back everything I gave her, including the betrothal gift." At that time, he could say that he spent the money on her with the purpose of getting married.

He had consulted his classmates a long time ago, because he spent a lot of money, and he talked about his plans for future marriage all the time during the conversation, so the money could be recovered through litigation.

Chen Zhenfan nodded with satisfaction, "My son is really smart."

Although he didn't understand the principle behind what Chen Yunnan said, he could still understand the meaning.

In short, if Zhao Yuqin didn't marry him, not only could he get the betrothal gift back, but he could also get back all the money he had spent on her. Then there was nothing to be afraid of; he wouldn't lose anything anyway.

This was all his son's hard-earned money, how could he let her take it away so easily?

Unless she marries his son.

"Since you've made up, how about I pick some more vegetables and buy some free-range eggs and you send them to their house? You can't buy these things in the city." Wu Ruoyi was a little angry when she said this. The free-range eggs that Chen Xuyan and Jin Yunran had thrown back to the police station and asked them to take away were broken on the way back.

She was so heartbroken, as these eggs could be sold for a lot of money.

If I could have kept them now and sent them to Zhao Yuqin's house, I wouldn't have to buy local eggs from other people's houses.

Chen Yunan frowned and said, "Stop doing this. Do you really think they can't eat good food?"

"Nowadays, many leaders, big and small, are willing to put a lot of effort into their diet. To eat better and healthier, they even set up special farms to grow vegetables and raise pigs. What can't they eat?"

"Maybe Leader Chen Xuyan also lives a life like this."

He usually didn't bother to point it out, but now he was obviously very disappointed in them and hadn't completely forgiven them in his heart.

"Are these leaders all living in the heavenly palace? Why do they live like ancient emperors?" Wu Ruoyi obviously did not expect this result.

It seems that ordinary people like them really have no chance to help the children.

Chen Yunan sneered, "Not only do they live in the Heavenly Palace, their children are also Celestial Dragons."

Life is worth more than theirs.

Chen Zhenfan was a little confused, "What dragon man?"

"Okay, stop asking. You don't understand." Chen Yunnan turned around and went upstairs.

Chen Zhenfan and Wu Ruoyi looked at each other.

"It's all your fault. My son had said everything was fine to me, but you insisted on bringing some useless vegetables and eggs. Now what?" Chen Zhenfan felt angry when he looked at this stupid woman.

Incompetent bungler.

Wu Ruoyi didn't give in at all. "Because of me? I think it's because of you. If you hadn't insisted on slapping the boss, you wouldn't have forced the boss to not give you a penny. Otherwise, Yuqin and Yunan would have been married peacefully long ago without any problems."

He blames himself for everything. Can't he look for the reasons within himself?

She used to believe these nonsense, but now she doesn't believe them at all. The biggest problem is Chen Zhenfan.

"What did you say?" Chen Zhenfan looked at her with an uncomfortable look on his face as if his tail had been stepped on.
