I'm a junior in college this year, and I've linked my fishing check-in system.

Jiang Qian fell silent.

From a Casanova's perspective, this scene falls under the category of "a woman's vulnerable period." If you were a Casanova, you should have attacked the stronghold and pursued the other person!

"But this scene is far beyond what someone like Xiao Chunan could handle..."

Of course, Xiao Chunan is not brainless. Jiang Qian just doesn't want to take advantage of her vulnerable period at this time, not because he is a coward.

Jiang Qian, who had only ever been in one relationship in his life and whose partner was simply attracted to his looks, could only keep up with this conversation to buy time as he looked at his senior, who was crying her eyes out.

"...How could they say that?"

"I got into university on my own merit, I took out student loans, and I sold the project in my junior year to make money... I didn't spend a single penny of their money..."

"Just because I'm a girl?"

"...Now, they're going to sell me to pay for my brother's debts..."

"..."

Jiang Qian listened quietly.

He had only one thought in his mind: What the hellish family drama this is.

Criticism of one's family of origin is permissible!

No wonder Dai Zhenli is so bold in love and hate, and so open and generous.

People from these kinds of families tend to have only two types of personalities: either they are timid and hesitant, afraid to do anything, or they are outgoing and have a frank and open personality.

It turned out to be the case.

For her, leaving that family that favored sons over daughters might truly be the best life she could have.

I'll do anything as long as I can get out of here.

Jiang Qian knew that when the other person was in a bad mood, constantly comforting her wouldn't do anything right.

How much use are words of comfort?

"One hundred thousand? What did your brother do?"

"I bumped into someone's car, we argued, the police were called, and they ordered me to pay compensation." Dai Zhenli gripped the tissue tightly, her knuckles turning white. "They said they didn't have any money at home and asked me to pay."

Jiang Qian pulled out a chair and sat down.

Will you give it to me?

Dai Zhenli froze, her eyes darting around: "That's my brother. Although I don't want to give it to him..."

"But he is, after all, my family. Although I hate how they handled it, I still have to help them in some way."

"family?"

Jiang Qian thought about it and felt like he was about to curse.

This guy doesn't even deserve to be called family! We have equal rights and responsibilities, my friend...

Ultimately, even someone as poised and generous as Dai Zhenli finds it difficult to break free from the constraints imposed by her family, given the education she received from childhood.

Jiang Qian thought for a moment and decided he shouldn't criticize his son's father, so he changed his approach: "When you went to university, did they pay your tuition?"

Dai Zhenli was speechless.

"How much of the money you earned from your startup in your junior year of college did they take?"

Jiang Qian actually knew about Dai Zhen's entrepreneurial venture during his junior year of college, but it fizzled out later, and he never asked for the specific reasons. "You've taken out student loans and worked part-time. What have they provided for you along the way? Besides blood ties, what have they done for you?"

Dai Zhenli did not speak.

Jiang Qian walked up behind him and patted her shoulder: "My dear senior."

No...no, I think I've been possessed. What are my hands doing...?

Jiang Qian was still internally mocking himself, but his hand unconsciously rested on her shoulder:

"They treat you like an ATM, taking five cities today, ten more tomorrow. When will it ever end? If they give in this time, they'll do it again. If you give in, you'll never be able to turn your life around."

Dai Zhenli felt something was off. She actually hated physical contact with boys, but she never expected to feel this way so much...

Feeling comfortable with Jiang Qian standing behind her, she felt very safe, so she spoke more boldly:

"But they'll cause trouble, they'll come to the school, and they'll ruin my future."

Jiang Qian walked up to her, grabbed her arm, and shook her violently. "Wake up, my beautiful senior."

"Legally, adults don't have to pay for their brothers' mistakes, much less for their parents' greed. You don't owe them anything." Jiang Qian stared into her eyes. "If they cause trouble, then call the police. The school has its procedures; as long as you haven't done anything wrong, no one can ruin you."

Dai Zhenli looked at Jiang Qian, her eyes now filled with confusion.

"What should I do then?"

"Report the bank card lost and block their contact information. Now, immediately." Jiang Qian pointed to the phone on the table. "As for this 100,000 yuan hole, that's your brother's fault. Let him fill it himself. Even if he has to work, borrow money, or sell his blood, that's his life, not yours."

"Look at me."

Dai Zhenli looked up.

Jiang Qian looked at her and said, "Why are you still hesitating?"

"They just treat you as a prop, as a beautifully crafted commodity."

"Why would you want to pay them back? You don't need to!"

Block!

Dai Zhenli picked up her phone, her fingertip hovering over the block button, hesitant.

Jiang Qian snatched the phone, tapped the screen twice, and then shoved it back into her hand.

"alright."

"Everything is going well!"

"If they come looking for you, I'll fucking blow them up!" Jiang Qian roared angrily. "Don't they have anything on you? What are you afraid of?"

"Afraid others will say you're unfilial? But the problem is, filial piety is based on parental kindness!"

Dai Zhenli stood there, stunned.

She claims to be someone who dares to love and hate, but in reality, everything she does is just a reflection of the person she wants to become.

She had once read a book, a very old martial arts novel, and she really liked the chivalrous and generous female knight-errant in the novel, who could take things on and let them go.

She simply couldn't do it; she didn't dare.

To dare to dream and to want to become are two different things.

Daring to do it is another matter entirely.

This is why she felt a liking for Jiang Qian the moment she saw him actually flirting with Yang Wensu.

Jiang Qian's words today made her realize she had been dreaming.

Looking at Jiang Qian, Dai Zhenli subconsciously burst out laughing.

"Little junior, haven't you become shy yet?"

Jiang Qian knew Dai Zhenli was alright as soon as he saw her, so he turned and left.

"Okay, okay, senior, my CPU is about to burn out..."

Damn it, was I just possessed? How could I do something like this...?

It felt so good to take on so much responsibility; I'd do it again next time.

But just then...

He felt something warm rush up behind him, and Jiang Qian was startled.

That's it, that was a scenario everyone should be able to handle.

But how do we handle this scene?

"Ah, this feels so good..."

Jiang Qian felt the girl behind him was soft and warm, hugging him from behind.

She leaned close to Jiang Qian's ear, gently blew a breath, and whispered:

"Thank you, junior... here's a reward for you!"

Jiang Qian finally couldn't hold back anymore.
