6 Fu Tingyuan's Revenge (3)

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Luo Nanchu had lost her job.

It wasn't as simple as that, though.

She was utterly in the depths of unemployment in Tong City, a huge international city.

She could not find a job. Every single person who caught a glimpse of her face chased her out.

Even a hiring supermarket refused to accept her.

Someone who seemingly pitied her divulged a little information and said, "It's not that we don't need employees, but a small shop like ours simply cannot offend such an influential person. Miss Luo, please carefully think over who you have offended."

Who had she offended?

That's right. Who had she actually offended to make them want to exterminate her so ruthlessly?

Who was merely unsatisfied by the destruction of the Luo family and wanted to watch as her entire family died in spite of that?

Such cold-blooded eradication was something Luo Nanchu could never enact in her entire life.

People said that a woman's heart was the most vicious thing.

That was hilarious.

How could a woman be as malevolent as a man?

Tang Qing had asked to meet her at a cafe.

Bare-faced, Tang Qing looked even more delicate and graceful than usual.

She pressed a bank card into Luo Nanchu's hand and said softly, "Nanchu, there's 20,000 yuan on here. Use this to pay for your brother's dialysis for this week. I'll think of a way to help with your father's nursing fees."

It was at this point that Nanchu could not maintain the usual smile on her face. Her eyes reddened, and she turned her head slightly to the side.

"Thank you, Qing'er," she choked hoarsely.

She had never imagined that this friend she made at Dark Night would help her at her lowest.

They had only known each other for three weeks.

Tang Qing was different from Luo Nanchu, in the sense that she did not prostitute herself, but was only a waitress at Dark Night. She earned a monthly salary of 8,000 yuan, so this 20,000 yuan was equivalent to about three months' salary.

Tang Qing grasped Luo Nanchu's hand in hers, a light smile spreading across her delicate and graceful features.

"It's what I ought to do. You're my friend, Nanchu, so I couldn't possibly stand by and do nothing if something happened to you."

Luo Nanchu bit her lip forcefully. She looked at Tang Qing's face with reddened eyes before saying in a low voice, "Qing'er, I cannot possibly repay you and can only remember your kindness. I promise that if you run into trouble in the future, I will exhaust all means to help you."

However, with her current situation, these were only empty words right now.

Tang Qing smiled faintly and said, "Sure."

She did not wish for Luo Nanchu to repay her for her help, but she would not reject Luo Nanchu if she said such a thing either.

After a moment's pause, Tang Qing whispered, "Nanchu, do you know who is out to get you?"

Luo Nanchu nodded and the smile on her face dimmed as she replied, "I do."

In the entire city of Tong City, who was unaware of this?

No one in Tong City would dare to hire her after a single command from Fu Tingyuan.

He was currently extremely awe-inspiring.

"Nanchu, have you thought about what you are going to do in the future?"

Luo Nanchu pursed her lips slightly and gave an unhurried smile, but it had a hint of helplessness.

"I don't know, Qing'er." She really didn't know what to do anymore.

Fu Tingyuan was even more cruel than she had imagined.

She even regretted leaving that night.

She had only been humiliated by him. Now, she was about to lose her life—what use was her dignity?

In the end, she still had to deliver herself to his doorstep where he would trample on her.

She was at such a low point, yet she had still wanted to maintain a shred of self-respect in front of him when she was already struggling at death's door. Seriously, she was too…

She was too laughable.

Her fall to her current plight was totally her own fault.

It was she who had not learned from her past mistake and had underestimated the cruelty of Fu Tingyuan.

Tang Qing looked at her and sighed deeply. She then reached out to hold Luo Nanchu's icy fingers and said softly, "Nanchu, I can't stay with you for long. I have to go."

Jie Ling knew that Tang Qing was chummy with Luo Nanchu. Afraid that she herself would be implicated if Tang Qing ruffled any feathers, Jie ling had prohibited Tang Qing from contacting the latter.

"I'll help you think of a way to get the money. Just… don't worry too much."

Luo Nanchu nodded.

"Mmm," she said in a low voice.
