At The Bottom Chapter 75

The Tori Bar, tucked away in the woods, has a dark brown solid wood sign with a fine art variation of the word Tori carved into it.

It blends in with the green foliage and branches of the surrounding trees, just like a forest cabin.

Unlike previous days, however, there is an additional notice board at the entrance of the bar today.

“For various reasons, Dongli Bar is now transferred, please discuss in detail if you are interested ……”

When he read the notice, Lu Yuan was stunned, no, the bar was quite popular, and business was always good, how could the owner want to transfer it.

But now there’s no time to think about it, Lu Yuan walked into the bar.

As soon as he entered, “Lu Yuan!”

He saw Li Mengyao in a position against the wall inside, drinking milk tea and waving towards him.

Lu Yuan just walked over, Li Mengyao immediately called for the waiter, “A cup of **** coffee.” Then she pointed at Lu Yuan with a faint smile, “Give it to him.”

***Coffee, very expensive, fifty dollars a cup.

Lu Yuan couldn’t help but feel that this was the best Li Mengyao had treated him since he had known her, I’m afraid.

It was just ironic that this, surprisingly, was after a breakup.

Lu Yuan sat down and looked at Li Mengyao.

Unlike the negative Li Mengyao who was angry and cursing in the cafeteria, this time Li Mengyao was smiling slightly and looked in a pretty good mood.

“Why are you alone, where is Du Liang?” Lu Yuan asked, and to be honest, asking that was intentional.

“He ah, hehe, I broke up with him.”

At this moment, Li Mengyao still looked like she was in a good mood, and she didn’t know if she was faking it.

“Broke up, why?”

“Oh, that person, his character is too bad, I really didn’t expect that he was the one who picked up the money lost by Teacher Wu Liu, the abomination is that he didn’t hand over the money he found and swallowed it privately, this kind of person with despicable character, I Li Mengyao despises it, I will never date this kind of person even if I am single for the rest of my life!”

Li Mengyao finished her speech with great righteousness, then, looking up at Lu Yuan, her hand, at some point, slid from the table to the back of Lu Yuan’s hand, “Lu Yuan, last time I misunderstood you, I’m really sorry, what I said to you once was too much, but I think you also know Lu Yuan, as I just said, I just, especially hate those who found the money and swallowed it. Such people of vile character, at that time I was very disappointed in you, that’s why I said those things ……”

“Well, well, let’s not talk about the past.”

Lu Yuan said indifferently, while retracting his hand.

At once, Li Mengyao’s gaze slightly darkened, and her heart, it seemed, began to sink.

“What, don’t you believe it?”

Li Mengyao withdrew her hand, a few moments of aggravation showing in her gaze, “Lu Yuan, do you think I’m lying to you? Do you think I broke up with Du Liang because he owed money? Do you think I’m lying? No, Lu Yuan, let me tell you, I, Li Mengyao, am definitely not the kind of woman who is greedy for money! What I value, is a person’s character!”

Suddenly, she stood up and leaned towards Lu Yuan, pointing at her ear, her tone became a bit sad again, “Lu Yuan, look here, see! I returned all the earrings that Du Liang had bought for me!”

I returned all the earrings Du Liang bought for me!” she said and held out her hand, “And the ring, I returned it to him too!”

“Do you know why, do you know!”

Li Mengyao looked even more aggrieved, even more sad, even more pitiful, “Just because, I already know that those things were bought with Du Liang’s stolen money! I would rather die now and jump from here than to bring those things bought with dirty money! So, I gave it back to Du Liang and dumped him! Now, do you understand!”

“Well, I understand.”

Lu Yuan echoed, speechless.

I said to myself, “In the cafeteria, I was sitting not far from you, and I saw and heard everything that happened to you, and now, you’re telling me this.

However, Lu Yuan didn’t expose her, just to see what Li Mengyao wanted to do.

“It’s good that you understand.”

In Li Mengyao’s gaze, a trace of hope was rekindled.

Saying that, Li Mengyao simply lifted her butt and sat down next to Lu Yuan.

“Did you call me here to talk to me about this?” Lu Yuan said.

“Mm.” Li Mengyao nodded, “But there’s more, Lu Yuan, let me tell you, before Du Liang spent a lot of money on me, invited me to dinner and bought me gifts to take me out, now I think, Du Liang, this person, his character is so bad, he swallowed all the money he found privately, maybe the money he spent on me in the past, he also got it all from something unclean.”

“Oh, so?”

“So, I thought I’d simply, as a group, return all the money he used to spend on me to him!” Li Mengyao pursed her lips and said seriously, “Because I, Li Mengyao, am a person of principle, money from unknown and unclean sources spent on me, I feel disgusted and will have a bad conscience. So, now that I’ve returned all that money to Du Liang, I’ve ended up with a clear and clean picture myself, and I’ll be at peace in my heart.”

“Er.”

Lu Yuan nodded, “That’s good.”

When Li Mengyao saw Lu Yuan say this, her heart became even happier.

I told you, Lu Yuan has always been unable to let go of me, he will always still love me.

Thinking of this, somehow, while Li Mengyao was proud of herself, she actually had an indefinable feeling in her heart.

“But, although I want to pay him back, I don’t have that much money on me.” When Li Mengyao said this, she took a deep breath, her gaze was suddenly soft, looking into Lu Yuan’s eyes, “Lu Yuan, since you didn’t pick up that money, and you donated half a million at once, you, tell me, just how much did you win in the lottery?”

“One million.” Lu Yuan was not ambiguous and simply said straight away.

“Ah ……” Li Mengyao couldn’t help but draw a cold breath, one million, gosh, although it was similar to what she thought, when she heard Lu Yuan actually say this out of her mouth, Li Mengyao still had an indescribable shock in her heart.

Although she had donated five hundred and eighty thousand and spent a lot, she must still have a few hundred thousand left in her hand.

“Then, Lu Yuan, can you lend me 200,000.” Li Mengyao leaned towards Lu Yuan again, the two of them were almost physically next to each other at this moment, and Li Mengyao’s voice was even softer, “I want to return it to Du Liang and completely cut off relations with him from now on. The money he spent is not clean, I, Li Mengyao, dare not accept it.”

As Lu Yuan listened, he sighed in his heart, his guess was indeed correct, Li Mengyao had really come to borrow money from himself.

“Two hundred thousand, you owe him that much?”

Lu Yuan was a little surprised, when he was in the canteen, he had clearly heard Du Liang say that he had spent 120,000 and wanted Li Mengyao to pay back 120,000, how, could it be that he had heard wrong?

“Actually, it’s more than that.” Li Mengyao’s big eyes blinked and tears seemed to flow out of her eyes, “The total amount I owe him is 250,000, but I… I have wronged you so much, how can I be ashamed to borrow all 250,000 from you? From then on, I, Li Mengyao, can be a man in all honesty.”

At this point, snapping, snapping, Li Mengyao’s tears, unexpectedly dripped down.

“Eh.”

Lu Yuan was speechless, this F**k, now it had become two hundred and fifty thousand.

“Li Mengyao, I, I would love to help you, but if you had borrowed from me a few days earlier, I would still have been able to lend you over two hundred thousand.” Lu Yuan sighed, “But as you can see, it’s been over two weeks and I haven’t come to cla*s or been at school.”

“Ah, where have you been?” Li Mengyao couldn’t help but ask.

“Didn’t I win the lottery, I donated seven or eight, I still have more than three hundred thousand left, then I went on a trip to Sanya with Zhou Yun, in these fifteen days, we stayed in luxury hotels, rented yachts, ate seafood, surfed, dived, spa spa, saw exhibitions, to be honest, these three hundred thousand or so, it’s not enough to spend, it’s basically spent it all! I can’t even get $20,000 out of it, let alone $200,000. I also want to help you ah, but ……”

Lu Yuan sighed heavily, with a look of love and helplessness.

Ah?

Li Mengyao listened to all of this and froze, her thoughts drifting as Lu Yuan told her, especially when she heard Lu Yuan say that he took Zhou Yun on a trip to Sanya, eating seafood and staying in hotels, eating and drinking, Li Mengyao couldn’t help but be envious in her heart.

But when she finished listening, Li Mengyao was dumbfounded.

Flowers, finished?

“Ah, that, yes, yes, didn’t you still win a ruby necklace at Mr. Shen’s banquet last time? Can you pawn that necklace as collateral and lend it to me again!”

At this moment, Li Mengyao, was obviously a bit anxious.

“Li Mengyao, this definitely won’t work. You were there that day, you saw it, that necklace, I personally gave it to Yun Er, that is our love object, the value is far beyond money, this absolutely can not be mortgaged.” Lu Yuan said.

“Lu Yuan!”

All the tenderness on Li Mengyao’s face disappeared in an instant, and she glared at Lu Yuan in annoyance, “Don’t you forget that you are impostor, that necklace belongs to a person called Xue Nu! You watch out for me exposing you, and, and your bullSh*t Yooner!”

Hearing that Lu Yuan even called Zhou Yun as Yun’er, Li Mengyao was somehow upset in her heart.

“Oh, when Mr. Shen also confirmed it, the organizer has confirmed it, and why should I be afraid of you exposing it.” Lu Yuan chuckled and said.

“You!”

Li Mengyao’s anger had risen by now and she pointed at Lu Yuan, “Lu Yuan, you don’t want to help me anymore?!”
