Shen Jie quickly retreated back into the courtyard, "Alright, this is all your business."
"Shen Yuan, stop knocking. I'm not going to open the door."
"If you have to borrow money, I can only make a trip to your village and then I'll charge you for a phone call to my parents, to ask them for the money."
"No, no." Shen Yuan was taken aback—not only by the need to go to the village but also by the prospect of calling home, which was something she could not accept.
She could imagine what would happen if her family found out she was still with Gao Jian—they might really beat her to death.
That won't do, she couldn't let her family find out, "They, they won't give the money."
"That's simple, just send a telegram to the Gao Family. If it's Gao Jian's mistake, let the Gao Family take responsibility."
It was originally the money Gao Jian earned that he sent back home. Now that there was a need to pay compensation, shouldn't the Gao Family be the ones to come up with the money?
