Chapter 170: Do You Think He’ll Believe It?
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Zhang Rongqing wanted money.
She had already sold as many of her previous branded bags, clothes, and jewelry as she could. She couldn’t get any money from her family, and she didn’t have a job. Other than borrowing from friends, what else could she do?
Now that she had something that she could threaten Lin Gantang with, how could she not brandish it?
After watching the video, Lin Gantang immediately recalled how Le Yu had bitterly asked her for Wen Yanqing’s number that day.
Zhang Rongqing had only kept this portion of the video; Le Yu’s words in the video were indeed somewhat misleading. Those who were not present might really believe Zhang Rongqing’s nonsense.
Zhang Rongqing had lost her mind due to money and was fabricating facts to extort money.
However, she was right. After a long time, the surveillance records in the bookstore had been replaced by new ones.
“Do you think Wen Yanqing will believe you?” Lin Gantang smiled. She took out her phone and tapped a few times before putting it back on her body.
“I don’t need him to completely believe me. As long as he suspects you, then I would have won. Lin Gantang, I don’t believe you don’t care at all,” Zhang Rong said proudly.
“Of course I care. Since you were there that day, you should know that Le Yu was only looking for me because he wanted Wen Yanqing’s contact information,” Lin Gantang said.
“Of course I know, but why should I reveal it? The video is with me, so I have the final say.” Zhang Rongqing sneered. “1 say that Le Yu and you have an ambiguous relationship. This is the evidence.”
“You can’t bear to see me doing well?” Lin Gantang asked.
“It’s not that 1 can’t see you doing well. I just want money. Give me money and you can continue to live a good life in the future; no one will bother about you. Don’t rich people like to use money to solve their problems? 1 think you’re a smart person.”
Lin Gantang looked at her frostily. “So you deliberately recorded this video just to threaten me one day?”
“I didn’t want this to happen either. Who told you to inform my dad about me taking your watch? If my dad had returned the money to me, 1 wouldn’t have come looking for you. Therefore, there is a cause and effect; you should consider it carefully.” Zhang Rongqing looked like she had victory in her hands.
“Just to make Yan Qing misunderstand?” Lin Gantang asked.
“What are you talking about? Of course, you can clear up this misunderstanding. Isn’t it good to spend some money to buy peace?”
“What good would it do you if Yan Qing misunderstood me?” Lin Gantang shook her head regretfully. “You also said that we were friends, but now that we can’t be friends, you’re turning against me?”
“Taking the video directly to you instead of giving it to him is already in consideration of our past friendship.” Zhang Rong snorted.
Lin Gantang sighed and seemed to want to compromise. “Just tell me, how much do you want?”
“Relationships are priceless. It’s not too much for me to ask for as much as I want, right?” Zhang Rongqing’s heart was pounding hard. “1 owe 300,000 yuan for my failed investment with a friend. I won’t ask you for more. I’ll add another 50,000 yuan to pay the interest. 350,000 yuan; I’ll delete the video once you give it to me.”
“An exorbitant demand.”
“Your family is rich. 350,000 yuan is nothing to you. Don’t even think about bargaining. Otherwise, I would have directly chosen to ask for one million just now. In the end, it was still 350,000 yuan.”
Lin Gantang laughed at her shamelessness. “You’re really want to get me, right?”
There was unconcealed greed in Zhang Rongqing’s eyes. Lin Gantang knew that if she satisfied her today, she would never be able to get rid of her again.
Who knew if she had a backup of her video? If she got the money today, she would come again the next time she didn’t have money. Each time, she would ask for more.
After all, Zhang Rongqing would think that this matter could stop her.
However, Lin Gantang was not stupid. She slowly took out her phone. The recording interface on the screen made Zhang Rongqing’s expression change..
