"Do you think I care about eating your family’s food? If it weren’t for the long distance and you always avoiding me, I would have taken Liangliang back long ago!"
Seeing how straightforward Zhang Yuexin was, Gu Tiantian sneered.
But when she heard two million, she frowned.
Even Grandma Gu, who was silently eating, raised her head and looked at Zhang Yuexin in confusion.
"Yue Xin, wasn’t it just three hundred thousand left? How did it become two million?"
Zhang Yuexin was clearly waiting for Grandma Gu to ask this question, glaring at Gu Tiantian with fierce eyes, and spoke with extreme disdain.
"Mom, you wouldn’t understand the cost of living, prices are soaring now, a hundred bucks now isn’t worth ten bucks ten years ago. In ten years, if I put the money in the bank, it would all amount to a million with interest!"
"Or if I used it for business, how could I still be stuck with just that small grocery store?"
Listening to Zhang Yuexin, Gu Tiantian understood.
It turns out Zhang Yuexin planned to use her as a long-term meal ticket!
Where could she, a college graduate for just half a year, possibly get two million?
Even with a monthly salary of ten thousand, totaling one hundred twenty thousand a year, according to Zhang Yuexin’s calculation, she was sure that two million would eventually become nine hundred fifty thousand!
She never imagined someone could be so heartless, Gu Tiantian had truly witnessed it.
"Mom, the money borrowed for Tian Tian was pooled by Qingfeng getting help from my mother’s family, and some were high-interest loans. We’ve been frequently hounded these years, you know how our lives have been!"
"Now Tian Tian is earning, I heard she’s working in an entertainment company, her salary shouldn’t be low, so what’s wrong with paying back for half a year?"
"Of course, if she can pay back all at once, it would make me happier!"
Gu Tiantian looked at Zhang Yuexin like she was looking at a Martian!
But listening to Zhang Yuexin’s tall tales, she laughed despite herself!
"Aunt, you really dare to say that!"
After a while, Gu Tiantian finally said this.
Grandma Gu couldn’t accept it.
Especially hearing that thirty thousand had turned into two million, it was simply unacceptable.
Moreover, she well knew how much money her granddaughter Tian Tian had.
Going out early and coming back late every day, sometimes she doesn’t come home at all, living meal to meal. She’s even thinner than when she was in school.
Now her aunt not only has no comforting words, as soon as she enters she hits with demands for money!
"Yue Xin, prices are indeed rising fast now, but that shouldn’t be your calculation. And the money owed back then, hasn’t Tian Tian paid off a part over the years?"
Seeing the old lady side with Gu Tiantian, Zhang Yuexin’s face turned uglier.
"Mom, what I’m saying is the truth, how is it not my calculation! You’re old and don’t understand how terrifying compound interest high-interest loans are now!"
"I’m telling you, the two million I calculated for her is definitely just below not above!"
"Two million, not a cent less!"
Those words felt like she truly believed it was just below not above!
Grandma Gu listened, covering her chest quickly, her body swayed.
Gu Tiantian was just about to retort when she saw her grandma’s condition was not right, she hurriedly reached out to support her.
"Grandma, what’s wrong?"
Zhang Yuexin watched and couldn’t resist mocking.
"Alright, stop pretending, don’t think faking illness will let you avoid repaying! I’ve already said, no matter what, two million is the least!"
