I’m Not a Badass

  Chapter 144 Gambler

   "Tuk tuk tuk!"

  Xue Xiaoyan knocked a few times, the door cracked slightly, and a young woman with reddish hair and a smell of cigarettes appeared at the door, causing Xue Xiaoyan to frown slightly, and took a step back unobtrusively.

  The red-haired young woman glanced at Xue Xiaoyan, couldn't help grinning, and turned her head to shout into the room: "The daughter of that guy named Xue is here to lead her!"

   There was a faint response from someone in the room: "Got it."

   After shouting, the red-haired young woman turned her head to look at Xue Xiaoyan, rubbed her index finger and thumb lightly, and said with a half-smile: "You are also an acquaintance, old rules, you understand?"

  Xue Xiaoyan didn't say a word, and took out the wages that had just been received and hadn't warmed up, as well as the poverty-stricken student fund, and handed them over to the other party.

The red-haired young woman counted, nodded in satisfaction, clapped her palms while holding the thick stack of banknotes, and said with a smile: "Yes, it's just enough. You came early this time, if you come later in the evening A few days, then the money to be repaid may be more than that."

   "Stop talking nonsense, where are people?" Xue Xiaoyan said coldly.

  The red-haired young woman had just received the money, she was in a good mood, and didn't care about her face, and waved back, and soon a middle-aged woman who looked very down-and-out was pushed over.

  The red-haired young woman patted the middle-aged woman on the shoulder, watching the latter shrink her head subconsciously, she couldn't help laughing, and said with a smile: "Sister Xue, welcome to play again next time!"

   "Definitely, definitely." The down-and-out middle-aged woman rubbed her hands together, smiled, and tentatively said, "Those things of mine..."

   "Oh yes, you will wait." The red-haired young woman suddenly realized, turned and walked into the room, and came back after a while, holding a bunch of paper clips, small hooks and various handles in her hands.

  The middle-aged woman quickly caught it, put it all in her pocket, seemed relieved, and muttered: "I can't lose my food."

   "Let's go, go back with your daughter." The red-haired young woman unceremoniously pushed the middle-aged woman out of the door, then waved to Xue Xiaoyan friendly, and closed the door with a snap.

   "Xiaoyan—" The middle-aged woman opened her mouth and was about to thank her, but Xue Xiaoyan turned her head and left without even looking at her from the beginning to the end.

Seeing this, the middle-aged woman was stunned, and hurriedly followed, and then heard Xue Xiaoyan say without turning her head: "This is the last time, next time you ask these people to borrow money, I will not care about you anymore! "

  Her tone was extraordinarily cold.

"Look at you child, you say such things again." The middle-aged woman smiled, and said with a relaxed face: "I know, you and your father still care about me in their hearts, and there will be no accidents. Just sit back and watch. Xiaoyan, do you still remember when I was a child, I often took you and your brother to fly kites in the park? I really miss those days, when you still liked to sit on my shoulders..."

She didn't finish her sentence, because Xue Xiaoyan, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped and turned her head suddenly. The anger and indifferent eyes on her face made her heart tremble, and the rest of the words were stuck in her throat. Why? Can't send it out either.

Xue Xiaoyan took a few steps closer, grabbed the middle-aged woman by the collar, leaned her back against the wall, and angrily said with a cold face: "I warn you, don't play the family card with me! My dad It's because you are too soft-hearted, so you can successfully deceive him every time with this trick, but it is useless to me! Don't mention my brother, when you promised to pick him up from school, you ran to gamble with someone halfway, and put My brother was left alone in the kindergarten and waited alone until eight or nine o'clock in the evening. In the end, my dad got a call from the teacher after the evening shift and took me to the kindergarten to pick him up. He was crying non-stop. Said that we didn't want him anymore, I still remember that scene!"

  The middle-aged woman opened her mouth, her eyes were evasive, and she was speechless.

Xue Xiaoyan snorted coldly, let go of her hand, turned around and continued to walk forward, and said coldly: "Besides, you and my dad have divorced a long time ago, but you asked these people to borrow money for the first time, and let us Help you pay back the money, this time you owe so much money, my dad is completely desperate for you. You will never appear in front of our family again, otherwise... "

  There was a sense of threat in her words, which caused a trace of fear to appear in the eyes of the middle-aged woman behind her.

   This middle-aged woman is her mother, Xue Ran.

  But for Xue Ran, Xue Xiaoyan only has disgust in her heart, and has no affection at all.

  Because this woman is a selfish, bad gambler, a useless mother, Xue Xiaoyan saw through this at a very young age!

Leaving aside the things I did when I was a child, Xue Ran has been idle all day since she divorced her father seven years ago, doing petty theft, and her addiction to gambling is getting worse and worse. Every time she asks someone to borrow money, But he was unable to pay back the money, so he would call his father to plead for mercy.

  The father was soft-hearted, thinking of the kindness of the husband and wife back then, he would let go and agree to help pay back the money.

In order to raise money, my father even worked three jobs a day. He dragged his exhausted body home from five in the morning to two or three in the morning. He only slept for two or three hours before going out to work again. Looking haggard, Xue Xiaoyan's heart was pierced by a knife.

   But every time after repaying the money, although Xue Ran promised that he would never gamble again, he would go to gamble again every so often, and then owed a sum of money, asking them to help repay it.

As a result, Xue Ran owed more and more money every time, and became more and more unscrupulous. This time, she owed a huge sum of money and directly emptied her father's savings for the past two years. The bursary fund, plus the wages of part-time jobs, may not be able to get Xue Ran out.

  The only thing that comforted Xue Xiaoyan was that her father was completely disappointed in Xue Ran after this time. Next time Xue Ran does this again, it may be difficult to call his father.

  As for her, she is too lazy to care about this kind of scum.

  Xue Ran shrank her head, did not dare to speak, and silently followed behind Xue Xiaoyan.

  Xue Xiaoyan walked forward with a dark face. At this moment, a door next to her opened, and a beautiful girl in cool clothes came out, holding a shopping bag in her hand, as if she was planning to go shopping.

  Xue Xiaoyan made eye contact with this girl, and there was a hint of surprise in the other's eyes, but it disappeared quickly.

  The two were very close, Xue Xiaoyan smelled a pleasant smell coming from the other person, and couldn't help being slightly taken aback.

  The girl nodded to her politely, walked past Xue Xiaoyan, and left along the stairs.

  At the moment when she passed by, Xue Xiaoyan suddenly saw something, and her pupils shrank slightly.

  Seeing the girl's back disappear, Xue Xiaoyan stood where she was, her brows furrowed.
