Quick Transmigration: The Cannon Fodder's Comeback in the Era Tales

Chapter 519: Chapter 519: Foolish Husband 12

”Yuan Chun, just bear with it for a bit. Once my job becomes permanent, we’ll get married.” Guo Changming reached out, trying to embrace her.

Yuan Chun slapped his hand away angrily, ”You always say that. When will your job actually become permanent, Changming? I really can’t stand living at my brother and sister-in-law’s place anymore.”

Guo Changming rubbed his slightly aching hand and sweet-talked, ”Yuan Chun, don’t be mad. I heard that there’s a chance my name will be on the list this time. As soon as I get permanent status, I’ll go home and tell my mom to send a matchmaker to your house to propose. Yuan Chun, you know I really like you. In this life, I only want to marry you.”

”Changming, I believe you.”

Yuan Chun lowered her head, wiped her tears, and said, ”Changming, did you bring any money? I don’t have a single cent on me, and I want to buy something.”

”Didn’t your parents give you pocket money? You spent it all?”

”Changming, you forgot. A few days ago, you said you didn’t have any money and borrowed ten yuan from me. And before that, you borrowed five yuan. Back at school, almost all my pocket money went to you. Changming, now I’m living under someone else’s roof at my brother and sister-in-law’s place, and without any money, I feel very uneasy. Could you pay me back a bit first?”

Guo Changming’s face turned red and blue with shame and annoyance, ”I didn’t bring any money out. How about this, tomorrow night, I’ll bring you two yuan.”

”Only two yuan, Changming? Can’t you bring ten? There’s something I need to buy, and two yuan isn’t enough. I need ten. If you don’t have it, can you borrow it from a colleague for me? I really need it urgently.”

Guo Changming reluctantly nodded, ”Then I’ll try borrowing it for you first. If I can’t get it, it’ll only be two yuan.”

He never intended to repay the money he borrowed from Yuan Chun. Using his girlfriend’s money and repaying it—just speaking of it would be utterly humiliating.

But he couldn’t voice these thoughts. Otherwise, what would Wei Yuanchun think of him?

”Changming, yesterday, my brother asked me what I spent my pocket money on. I couldn’t answer. I need to buy something to take home and show to my brother and sister-in-law. Otherwise, if they push me for the whereabouts of my pocket money and I say it’s you, what then? If my sister-in-law finds out you spent all my pocket money, she might just storm into the workshop to confront you.”

Exactly, the original character was that naive.

Getting into a relationship and still giving more than she received.

The Wei Family had only one son and one daughter. Mr. and Mrs. Wei weren’t preferential towards sons over daughters, and they spoiled the original character, their daughter. While she was in high school in the city, Mr. and Mrs. Wei often slipped her some money for spending.

Back then, Wei Yuanfang wasn’t married yet, but he was already working. He would specifically go to school to give the original character some extra pocket money when he got paid a bonus.

The original character, however, was a hopeless romantic, infatuated with Guo Changming to the point of obsession. After getting into a relationship with him, all her pocket money ended up in Guo Changming’s hands.

Guo Changming wasn’t exactly swindling girls for money; he just spent money freely, always on eating, drinking, and entertainment. The pocket money his parents gave him wasn’t enough, so he naturally turned to his girlfriend for hers.

But in the previous life, after Guo Changming abandoned the original character, that money was never returned to her.

The original character lost both heart and money.

...

Guo Changming didn’t dare let Zhao Dongxiu come looking for trouble, so the next evening, he gave Yuan Chun ten yuan.

With money in hand, Yuan Chun didn’t want to keep feeding the mosquitoes in the little forest or listen to the sweet but poisonous words of the scumbag anymore.
