Reborn in 1999: Starting as a black marketeer

Seeing that Guo Juan had already said that, Wang Feiyang didn't press the matter any further. He simply nodded and said, "Then bring me the IOU, and I'll pay you back."

Fortunately, he still had more than ten thousand US dollars left untouched; otherwise, it would have been really difficult for him to come up with several thousand US dollars after just remitting the payment back to China.

Guo Juan hurriedly carried the bag of cherries back to her room to get the IOU. Wang Feiyang watched her retreating figure and shook his head, speechless.

Originally, I thought it was fate that I could be classmates with Zhang Liang, Hu Xiaoyun, Guo Juan and others for two lifetimes. I thought that when the company grew bigger, I would give these classmates a chance and help them get rich together.

And then, just when things were all going well, Guo Juan insisted on jumping off...

…………

Just around the corner from the door was their dormitory. Guo Juan was about to push the door open when she saw Hu Yang coming over again.

Recently, Hu Yang and Guo Juan and Hu Xiaoyun have become quite close. The two girls feel that Hu Yang is a very warm-hearted person, and he will come to help whenever they need him.

Of course, if they had a choice, they would most like to contact Wang Feiyang when they needed something. Unfortunately, Wang Feiyang was always very busy, leaving early and returning late every day. They could only see him at night, and he was nowhere to be seen at other times.

As for Hu Yang's character, no one told them that. They weren't familiar with the others, and Liu Yingying, being the person involved, couldn't directly speak ill of Hu Yang. Besides, Liu Yingying wasn't very close to Guo Juan and Hu Xiaoyun either...

Therefore, Guo Juan and Hu Xiaoyun thought that Hu Yang was a warm-hearted boy, and apart from being a little short and not very good-looking, he didn't have many other problems.

Hu Xiaoyun was rather reserved, and since she looked down on Hu Yang, she deliberately kept her distance from him. However, Guo Juan and Hu Yang were kindred spirits, and their relationship was better.

"Have you eaten yet? We're having a get-together today. If you haven't eaten yet, why don't you come over and grab something to eat?" Hu Yang greeted him warmly.

Guo Juan immediately became interested. She was always one to join in the fun, so she quickly nodded and said, "We were just about to cook, so that saves us trouble. I'll ask Xiaoyun if she wants to come."

With that, the two went into the room together.

After hearing this, Hu Xiaoyun hesitated for a moment, then shook her head and said, "Forget it, I won't go. I haven't had much of an appetite lately, and I want to eat something light tonight."

"Let's go together, it'll be more fun with more people. I'll introduce you to some of my friends." Hu Yang still wanted to bring Hu Xiaoyun along.

Guo Juan chimed in, "We haven't cooked yet, let's go. You can always come back when you're done eating."

But Hu Xiaoyun remained unmoved. "You guys go ahead. I really don't want to move. I'll just have some porridge and then lie down to watch a movie and rest."

Seeing her insistence, the two of them didn't say anything. Guo Juan went to find the IOU and left the dormitory with Hu Yang.

After leaving the house, she stopped and said, "Wait for me a moment. I'm going to find Wang Feiyang, give him the IOU, and get the money back."

"Is it the money you mentioned lending him this afternoon?" Hu Yang pressed.

"Yes, but Wang Feiyang agreed so readily. Now I'm a little hesitant, wondering if I should actually ask for the money back. After all, it would be quite awkward to talk to him later," Guo Juan said hesitantly.

Hu Yang rolled his eyes, tugged at Guo Juan, and gestured for her to come with him.

Once they reached a secluded corner, Hu Yang lowered his voice and said, "Since you're undecided, how about I suggest something? Don't ask Wang Feiyang for the money yet. After all, you've been classmates for months, and it's a bit awkward. Just transfer the IOU to me. That means I'll take the risk. I have many friends here, so I'm not worried about him running away with my money."

"Really? That's great! I really owe you a lot this time, otherwise I would have been quite worried..." Guo Juan grabbed Hu Yang's arm in surprise and said incoherently.

Hu Yang is not tall, and Guo Juan is even shorter, but the two of them look quite harmonious standing together.

The only slightly mismatched aspect is that Hu Yang is too thin, while Guo Juan is a bit too plump.

Thus, without Wang Feiyang's knowledge, his debt was transferred...

Hu Yang's desire to obtain the IOU was not out of kindness to help Guo Juan; he was simply looking for ways to get revenge on Wang Feiyang.

A few days ago, he met a big shot from the Fuqing gang through a friend. The so-called Chinese gangs in Moscow are actually not very influential. Their activities are basically limited to the area around the market, and their main business is debt collection and extortion.

Hu Yang greatly admired this big shot and planned to follow him in the future.

His family didn't expect him to learn anything when they sent him abroad to study. They just couldn't make it in China anymore, so they decided to pay for him to come here so he would at least cause less trouble in an unfamiliar environment.

Although Hu Yang wasn't great at studying or at being a good person, he had some experience in the underworld and was relatively mature. He had considered his future development. Since studying was out of the question, he figured that following a Chinese gang leader in Moscow for a few years might help him make something of himself.

Moreover, the Chinese gangs here aren't about fighting and killing; they're more focused on making money!

So, after seeing the IOU that Guo Juan took out, Hu Yang had an idea. He wanted to get the IOU and then ask the gang leader he had just met to help him collect the debt!

This not only served as revenge against Wang Feiyang, but also allowed him to formally establish a connection with the big boss—a win-win situation.

He didn't even intend to actually give the money to Guo Juan...

After giving the IOU to Hu Yang, Guo Juan quickly went to find Wang Feiyang and said that after thinking it over, she felt that she still couldn't take the money back in advance, as that would be too unfair.

Although Wang Feiyang found Guo Juan's inconsistency a bit strange, he didn't think much of it and just smiled to reassure her that he would definitely repay her with interest in three months.

…………

Wang Feiyang ate dinner at Liu Yingying's place again. Since the company got busy, he usually didn't get back to the dormitory until after six o'clock every day, so he naturally didn't have time to cook for everyone. Besides, after a busy day, he was too lazy to cook when he got back.

So Liu Yingying dragged him to eat with her. Although Liu Yingying and Zhuzhu's cooking skills weren't great, they weren't too bad among international students. At least the food they made was edible.

Wang Feiyang, of course, didn't just eat and drink for free. He would often buy some cooked food to supplement the two women's meals. Like today, when he bought that big pile of things, he took them with him while he ate.

I took the whole box of cherries, except for a little for myself.

Girls really do like eating fruit. When Liu Yingying saw the things Wang Feiyang brought over, she ignored the cooked food and looked at the cherries with surprise, saying, "Where did you buy these? The supermarket next to the dormitory doesn't sell them."

The supermarket next to the dormitory is very small, and it only sells common fruits like apples, oranges, and bananas. How could it possibly sell cherries?

"I bought it at the big supermarket next to the company, thinking you guys would like it. By the way, get your computer out first, I need to go online to do some urgent business."

He needed to transfer the money to Boss Gu as soon as possible; that was the important matter and couldn't be delayed...
