My life is ending, and my aloof CEO wife is taking revenge on me.

Chapter 3 Borrowing Money

After saying goodbye to the dean, I went to Song Yafei's company immediately.

Upon seeing me, all eyes in the company turned to me.

There were sympathizers and gloating, but most people just looked on with amusement.

Because what happened between Song Yafei and me was not a secret to anyone in the company.

In the past, I would have gotten angry at their gazes, but now I don't care at all.

Lin Qiuran walked over at that moment and stopped me at the office door.

He looked somewhat embarrassed: "There are guests inside, you can't go in!"

"You can tell me directly what you need our chairman for, and I'll pass on your message."

Upon hearing this, I couldn't help but sneer. How could there possibly be guests inside? It must be Yu Chengliang inside, right?

But that's no longer important to me.

"It's okay, I can wait here."

Seeing that I was determined to wait, Lin Qiuran led me to a rest room on the side.

Seeing my haggard appearance, he felt a pang of heartache: "What's wrong with you lately? Why do you look so haggard?"

"Things are getting worse every day."

I fiddled with the water glass in my hand, nodded silently, and then smiled with relief: "It's just a minor health issue; it'll be fine in a while!"

"By the way, the school is holding an alumni reunion in a couple of days. Are you still in the group chat? Could you add me in sometime?"

Before a person dies, they always want to see the things they used to avoid the most. Before, because of Song Yafei's matter, I avoided contact with all my classmates.

After all, from childhood to adulthood, Song Yafei and I were seen as childhood sweethearts and a perfect match by everyone. Even when we went to college, everyone thought we would end up together and have a happy ending.

But I left her when she was at her lowest point.

This made everyone hate me.

But I don't regret it.

Lin Qiuran didn't expect me to ask this suddenly. He paused for a moment, then shook his head: "In your current situation, it's not suitable for you to meet with them. Why don't we wait until next time? After this storm has passed, I'll organize another gathering."

I know what he's afraid of.

He was afraid that I would become a laughing stock among my classmates after I left, since in their eyes I was an ungrateful person.

All these years have passed, and the school's evaluation of me has never been good, including that of my supervisor.

If I were to attend their party at school now, they would probably gossip about me behind my back.

But if I can't go this time, how long will it be before I can go again? I don't have many years left to live.

I can't wait until next time.

Seeing my insistence, Lin Qiuran sighed helplessly, pulled me into the group chat, took out an invitation from her bag, and handed it to me.

I had just accepted the invitation when the door to the lounge opened, and Yu Chengliang stood in the doorway, looking at me with a smile: "Brother Zhang, what made you decide to come to the company?"

"I just heard them say that Brother Zhang is here, so I came here specifically to pick you up."

"Sister Ya has finished her business. I'll take you there now."

Lin Qiuran checked on my condition again, and after confirming that I was alright, she patted me on the shoulder and said, "If there's nothing else, I'll go ahead and get back to work. Contact me if you need anything."

Watching Lin Qiuran's retreating figure, a rare warmth welled up in my heart. After all, when that incident happened, he was one of the few people who were willing to believe me.

I followed Yu Chengliang to the office. Along the way, everyone pointed and whispered about me, but Yu Chengliang acted as if he were the host, greeting each of them.

In the office, Song Yafei frowned, surrounded by a mountain of documents.

Song Yafei only raised her head when she saw me come in.

"What are you doing here? Didn't I tell you not to come to the company unless it's important?"

After Yafei finished speaking, a hint of impatience appeared in her eyes.

But at that moment, I couldn't care less about anything else.

I told her about the orphanage and hoped she could lend me some money for an emergency. I promised to find a way to pay her back in a while.

But to my surprise, Song Yafei looked at me with a mocking expression after hearing what I said.

"Zhang Tian, ​​are you now resorting to such despicable lies to get money from me?"

Do you still think I'm that same fool you used to completely fool?

"I'm not giving you any money! You can get lost!"

Every word she said felt like a knife to my heart.

Would I joke about Sasha's life?

I moved step by step toward Song Yafei, almost pleading.

"Yafei, what I'm saying is true. If you don't believe me, you can go to the orphanage and ask the director. Sasha really did have an accident!"

When we were together before, we often went to visit Sasha together.

Sasha adores her and clings to her every day. I even joked that after we get married, I'll bring Sasha home with me. But now she won't even lend Sasha money for her medical treatment.

"Trust me! I wouldn't joke about Sasha with you."

"Please, lend me 200 million! Sasha needs this money to save her life!"

Hearing what I said, Song Yafei looked at me angrily: "Zhang Tian, ​​what do you mean by this? Are you forcing me to lend you the money?"

"Can't you understand human language? I won't lend it to you!"

After saying that, she actually raised her hand, signaling the security guards to drag me out.

I stood at the office door, like a stray dog.

Yu Chengliang smiled sarcastically when he saw me come out.

"Brother Zhang, I thought you came to see Sister Yafei about something important, but it turns out you just came to borrow money."

"Two million? Do you think you're worth that much?"

Yu Chengliang's sarcasm, Song Yafei's roar, the dean's furrowed brows, and Sasha's smiling face—all these images swirled in my mind.

I'm going crazy!

Waves of pain shot through my stomach again, so painful that I squatted down on the ground, my face pale and my shirt soaked with sweat.

No, I can't give up! Sasha is waiting for me to save her! She needs me!

I forced myself to stand up, little by little.
