Yang Mei’s face was a little awkward. She said with some difficulty, “Niannian, 1 really have no other choice this time. That’s why I asked you for help. 1 want… 1 want to borrow some money.”
Jin Nian’s expression was calm. In this day and age, one can borrow money with credit cards or various loan applications. Yang Mei had asked her to borrow money because she couldn’t repay the money in a short period of time. Now that Jin Nian had married into a wealthy family, it was nothing to take out a few hundred thousand yuan.
“How much?” Jin Nian asked.
Yang Mei said embarrassedly, “1 want to borrow 300,000 yuan. After that, we have to pay off the mortgage every month. We can’t pay you back that quickly. Can I pay you back in two years?”
Other than her own cosmetics, Jin Nian basically had no other expenses. Lu An had already arranged everything, so she had saved up her salary. Moreover, Lu An had also transferred her a large sum of money. There was also the money that her mother-in-law, Xie He, had given her when she was pregnant. All of her assets added up should be tens of millions.
Jin Nian didn’t calculate it carefully, but she was indeed a rich woman now. 300,000 yuan was nothing to her.
“Sure.” Jin Nian hesitated for a few seconds before she agreed. She had a good relationship with Yang Mei, and she wanted to help her friend.
Yang Mei was so happy that she held Jin Nian’s hand. Her face was full of gratitude and tears were about to fall. “Jin Nian, thank you. Everyone is buying a house now and they are all very tight financially. You are the only one who can lend me money. Don’t worry, I will pay you back as soon as possible.”
As she spoke, Yang Mei took out a loan slip from her pocket and signed her name in front of Jin Nian. She then handed it to Jin Nian and signaled her to sign it too.
Jin Nian checked the 1OU and signed her name. Then, she took out her phone and transferred 300,000 yuan to her.
Originally, she wanted to ask Lu An to come and take her home after lending the money, but Yang Mei pulled Jin Nian and started complaining. Jin Nian was too embarrassed to leave her alone.
Yang Mei heaved a sigh of relief when she saw the money transferred to her account. Then, she complained with tears in her eyes, “After graduating from university, I was blinded by love and got married in a daze. The mo families bought a small house in the city. Now that we have a child, we can’t live in it.”
“The housing prices in the city are too expensive. If we don’t change houses now, the price will rise even higher in the future. We had no choice but to sell our old house and change to a new one. Now that we’ve paid the deposit, we thought that the money on hand was just enough for the down payment. Who knew that the policy would suddenly change? We still need 400,000 yuan. We borrowed money everywhere to get 100,000 yuan. We can’t get the remaining 300,000 yuan no matter what.”
“I was already troubled enough because of the house. The elderly at home was hospitalized and spent a lot of money. 1 really can’t take out any money from my pocket now.”
Jin Nian listened to her ramble for a long time and responded from time to time.
Yang Mei took two sips of water and sniffed. “Poor couples are always sad. Niannian, it’s better to marry a rich man like you. You don’t have to worry about a house and a livelihood.”
Jin Nian didn’t say anything. She really didn’t know what to say. She didn’t marry into a wealthy family because of money, but because she was more suitable for Lu An. Even if Lu An was just an ordinary person back then, she would still marry Lu An.
However, if she said this, not many people would believe her, so she didn’t say it, lest Yang Mei thought she was pretending.
Jin Nian had to admit that Lu An’s family background and wealth had helped her a lot. If it weren’t for Lu An, she wouldn’t have been able to start the company so smoothly. She would probably be an ordinary employee now.
“Meimei, don’t be too sad. You don’t have to rush to return this money.” Jin Nian had no other choice but to comfort her with money.
Although the deadline was two years, Jin Nian didn’t want to make things difficult for Yang Mei and urged her to pay up as soon as possible.
Yang Mei said gratefully, “Thank you, Niannian. I will remember your kindness. It’s getting late. I’ll take my leave first.”
As she spoke, Yang Mei called the waiter to pay the bill. Jin Nian saw Yang Mei take out her credit card and quickly waved her hand. “I’ll pay the bill. My hubby hasn’t eaten yet, so we will eat together when he comes to pick me up.”
Hearing Jin Nian’s words, Yang Mei smiled and put her card back into her bag. She looked a little embarrassed. “Alright, thank you for your treat. Goodbye.”
Jin Nian waved at Yang Mei and watched her disappear from her sight. Then, she took out her phone and sent a message to Lu An, telling him her exact location.
The set meal on the table was already a little cold. Jin Nian finished the vegetable salad and drank a glass of orange juice before she was almost full.
This was the time when the restaurant was crowded. When Lu An entered, he attracted the attention of many people.. After all, who didn’t like to look at beautiful men?
