My Sexy CEO Wife-Chapter 176 - 174 Ever-Changing (Part 2)

"Can you lend me some money?" Su Xiaorou said, "I will pay you back as soon as possible!"

"Lend money?" Gao Fei frowned.

"The bank is pressing for the loan repayment, and they're very insistent. If I can't pay it off soon, they will seize the Su Group." Su Xiaorou's voice was bitter, "Now you're my only hope..."

"How much do you want to borrow?"

"Ten billion."

"You're really not shy about asking, are you!"

"Gao Fei..."

"You should go back." Gao Fei took a sip of his coffee, "I'm not going to lend you the money."

"You..." Su Xiaorou became anxious upon hearing this, "Gao Fei, listen to me..."

"Don't say any more, I'm not going to lend you the money." Gao Fei put down his coffee, then pushed back his chair and stood up, "I have other matters, I need to go." After he said this, Gao Fei walked out of the coffee shop without looking back.

Su Xiaorou sat in her chair stunned, taking a long time to regain her composure.

"Sigh..." Su Xiaorou let out a soft sigh, "Gao Fei, Gao Fei, do you really hate me that much? The things that happened back then... I had no idea, it was all arranged by my father... Besides, my father has already been punished, he has to spend the rest of his life in a wheelchair... Can't you let go of your resentment?"

With Gao Fei unwilling to lend her money, Su Xiaorou had to think of other ways.

Borrow from loan sharks?

The interest rates are high and the risks are even greater, if she couldn't repay, it would be troublesome.

Ask friends for a loan? Who would lend her that much money?

Su Xiaorou had many friends, mostly rich second-generation kids who had no real control over their own finances, with limited funds at their disposal. As for those influential bosses... they probably wouldn't lend her the money either.

"Buzz, buzz, buzz..."

Suddenly, her phone rang.

Su Xiaorou took out her phone and answered, "Hello?"

"Su Xiaorou, I heard you're in trouble? Trying to borrow money everywhere?" A man's voice came from the phone.

"Who is this?" Su Xiaorou asked.

"What? You can't recognize my voice?" The man exclaimed, "That really breaks my heart! After I considered you a good friend!"

"I'm sorry, I really can't tell."

"I'm Long Chao, remember now?"

"Long Chao... Ah... Yes, I remember now." Su Xiaorou nodded, "How did you get my number?" Su Xiaorou had met Long Chao at a friend's birthday party, they had chatted briefly, and she had forgotten about him afterwards.

"I got it from a friend," Long Chao said with a laugh, "Seriously though, are you short on cash?"

Su Xiaorou nodded, "Yes, I am in need of money at the moment."

"How much do you need? I'll think of a way to help you."

"Ten billion."

"That much... I don't have that kind of money on me..." Long Chao paused, "I'll go to my dad, ask him to lend you the money, he's wealthy."

"No need..."

"Don't be formal with me, you are my friend. Now that you're in trouble, I'm definitely going to help you."

"I really don't need it..."

"Wait for my call, I'm going to see my dad right now," Long Chao hung up the phone.

Su Xiaorou tossed her cell phone into her pocket and then stood up to leave the café. She held very little hope for Long Chao, who was nothing more than a rich second-generation obsessed with fun and extravagance. He might have some pocket money, but it was unlikely he could come up with ten billion.

As for Long Chao's father… she didn't even need to consider that, having no personal connection with him. Why would Long Chao's father possibly lend her the money? Only if he had gone mad.

As it turned out, Long Chao's father had indeed gone mad...

No sooner had Su Xiaorou left the café than she received a call from Long Chao.

"What did you say!? Your father is willing to lend me the money?" Su Xiaorou was taken aback.

"Yeah, my dad is easy to talk to. I told him about your situation, and he agreed to lend the money, but..."

"But what?" Su Xiaorou asked eagerly.

"My dad said he can lend the money, but there will be interest."

"That's only fair! Even if your dad didn't mention it, I would have offered interest."

"Where are you now? My dad wants to meet you and discuss in person," Long Chao asked. "My dad and I are in Fengtai City on business and can't go back to Bright Pearl City for a while. If you're free, come to Fengtai City."

"Okay, I'll go to Fengtai City right now," Su Xiaorou nodded eagerly. Fengtai City was right next to Southern City; it would take at most half an hour by car to get there.

"Call me when you arrive, and I'll come to pick you up," Long Chao said with a laugh.

"Okay," Su Xiaorou nodded.

After a brief conversation, they ended the call.

Finally, someone was willing to lend her the money; she could eventually get through this tough spot, and the heavy stone in her heart could at last be laid to rest.

It wasn't easy at all.

...

An hour later.

Su Xiaorou met Long Chao.

"You've become even more beautiful since I last saw you," Long Chao's eyes widened the moment Su Xiaorou got out of the car.

"You've become handsomer too," Su Xiaorou said politely.

"Let's go, I'll take you to see my father," Long Chao turned and entered an extended Bentley. Under the sunlight, it shone with a dazzling light. This particular Bentley had cost him tens of millions when he purchased it.

Driving her own sedan, Su Xiaorou followed the Bentley toward the city center.

More than half an hour later, the two cars stopped one after the other in front of Fengtai Grand Hotel, the most luxurious five-star hotel in Fengtai City.

Long Chao got out of his car and led Su Xiaorou into the hotel: "My dad and I have been in Fengtai City for half a month, here to negotiate a major business deal. We're signing the contract in a few days, and only after that can we return to Bright Pearl City."

"Uncle Long's business is growing bigger and bigger." Su Xiaorou paid a compliment. Long Group was also a prestigious conglomerate in Bright Pearl City, with total assets exceeding ten billion and an increasing momentum. It was once said that in a few years, Long Group would become one of the leading conglomerates in Huaxia.

"My dad is ambitious and never content with the status quo; he always wants to surpass others." As they talked, Long Chao and Su Xiaorou entered the elevator. "I've told him more than once not to push himself too hard and to enjoy life instead, since we already have enough money... but he never listens, working himself to death every day. It breaks my heart to see it..."

"Men tend to be very career-oriented," Su Xiaorou said with a smile.

"I'm a man too, so why am I not that career-oriented? Take this trip, for example, I didn't want to come to Fengtai City at all. It was my dad who dragged me here, wanting me to learn the business so that I can take over the company in the future," Long Chao said with a bitter smile. "I feel like I'm in prison, without any freedom or say, just being pushed around. It's quite depressing."

You don't know how fortunate you are! Su Xiaorou said to herself, having such a capable father is a blessing!

The current generation of rich second-generations are only focused on pleasure and refuse to endure hardship, often defiantly clashing with their parents and very rebellious.
