Luo Qi's delicate face was covered with frost, and her tone was clearly a bit irritated. Yiyi dared not speak, nodding dumbly.
"How many times have I told you? You... you want to drive me crazy?"
Although Luo Qi had already guessed what was going on, she was still extremely angry, her jade-like hand suddenly raised high. Yiyi shrank back in fear, tears streaming down her face uncontrollably.
At that moment, a large hand grabbed Luo Qi's wrist. "The money is mine; don't hit the child!"
"Ye Yiming, what right do you have to say that? Haven't you hit both of us enough over the years?" Luo Qi shook off Ye Yiming's hand and said coldly, "I accept that you borrowed from Usury!"
"But do you know what that ten thousand yuan is for? That's the money I set aside for booth fees! If you take away that ten thousand yuan, how am I supposed to set up a stall and sell goods to make money? If I can't make money, how can I pay back the loan? What about my daughter's school fees?"
"Give me back my money!"
Luo Qi shouted hoarsely. That ten thousand yuan was hard-earned savings she planned to use to rent a booth in a high-traffic area. Now that the money had been taken by Ye Yiming, how could she not be furious?
Ye Yiming explained, "I used that money for an investment; I'll pay you back in a couple of days."
Investment?
Luo Qi's eyes reddened, tears welling up. After living under the same roof for many years, did she not know what her husband was capable of?
He called it an investment, but it was nothing more than gambling and drinking. That money was probably already gone.
She laughed in anger and said, "Ye Yiming, your words aren't worth a single punctuation mark; only your daughter would fall for this."
Ye Yiming looked at the red-eyed Luo Qi and said earnestly, "Trust me!"
This only felt like salt being poured into Luo Qi's wounds, instantly igniting her fury.
"Trust you?"
"Ye Yiming! I'd rather believe tomorrow is the end of the world than trust a single word from you."
That ten thousand yuan felt like a mountain pressing down on Luo Qi, collapsing the last straw in her heart.
She yelled at Ye Yiming like a shrew, "Ye Yiming, I’m giving you two days to return every single penny. Otherwise, we won't be able to go on like this."
"Woo woo woo..."
Yiyi heard her parents arguing and immediately burst into tears.
She tugged at her mother's clothes with her small hands and sobbed, "Mom, I'm sorry. It's all Yiyi's fault. If you want to scold someone, scold Yiyi!"
"Don't blame your dad..."
Seeing how understanding his daughter was, Ye Yiming felt a pang in his heart and quickly reassured her, "Yiyi, don't cry. How could Mom bear to scold you?"
Although Yiyi was young, she understood a lot.
She knew her mother was very angry this time. With her small hands still clutching her mother's clothes, she pitifully pleaded, "Mom, please don’t be angry, okay..."
Ye Yiming felt heartbroken and quietly said to Luo Qi, "Our daughter is here; can we talk about this in two days?"
Luo Qi was taken aback.
But scenes of her husband deceiving her and their daughter flashed through her mind, and her heart grew cold again. She felt even more disgusted by anything he said or did.
However, their daughter was innocent after all.
What could such a small child understand? If anyone should be blamed, it should be this despicable person in front of her!
Luo Qi took a deep breath, trying to calm the turbulent emotions within her. She forced a smile onto her cold face and said, "Yiyi, don’t cry. Mommy isn’t angry anymore."
"Yiyi, be good. Mommy is no longer angry. Let’s eat first!"
