Seeing Lan Yinyun rush in and kneel before Su Li, even Jin Xueli, who was watching from outside, was startled.
In her eyes, Lan Yinyun had always been a tough nut to crack.
Even her elder sister sometimes couldn’t force Lan Yinyun to do things she didn’t want to do.
Now she was actually seeing Lan Yinyun kneel before Su Li.
Jin Xueli secretly watched everything inside the classroom, her mind suddenly seeming to freeze like a crashed computer, completely unable to think.
She didn’t know why she was witnessing this scene.
Even her sister couldn’t force Lan Yinyun to kneel, right?
But now the other woman was genuinely kneeling on the ground before Su Li.
“Miss Su Li, please, save me.”
Su Li’s expression was calm as she flipped through the book in her hands.The moment she saw it was Lan Yinyun, she already knew the other woman’s purpose and stopped paying attention to her after that.
No matter how many times Lan Yinyun kowtowed on the ground, Su Li’s face showed no change in expression.
“Miss Lan has been working for Jin Ke’er regularly, so you must have earned quite a lot of money over these years, right?”
“There’s really no need to come beg me for anything, is there?”
In reality, as the Jin Family’s butler, although Lan Yinyun’s income was substantial, her expenses were equally enormous.
She needed to maintain a respectable social image and also deal with Jin Ke’er’s frequent extra demands.
These expenditures left her with little savings, and financial pressure had always followed her like a shadow.
Even though outsiders saw her job as glamorous, only she knew her true situation.
Now she could no longer use this money to cover her living expenses and her mother’s medical bills.
So she was forced to turn to Jin Ke’er for help.
And the condition for Jin Ke’er to help was to see Su Li.
Or rather, she wanted Su Li to come find her personally.
How could Lan Yinyun not know what kind of scene had unfolded when Su Li left back then?
Having Su Li voluntarily go find Jin Ke’er was simply impossible.
But having Jin Ke’er directly transfer money to her was even more impossible.
“Please, Miss Su Li.”
“Please have mercy and help me.”
Lan Yinyun didn’t know how to convince Su Li, so she could only keep kowtowing.
“Miss Lan, I think if you need help, the person you should be looking for isn’t me, is it?”
“Have you already exhausted your Huabei Credit, Jiebei, and Weilidai?”
“Have you borrowed from your parents, relatives, close sisters, aunts, and uncles?”
“If not, please go borrow from them.”
“If you’ve already borrowed from everyone, then I think you can try being a sandbag for Jin Ke’er.”
“That way, although it’s a bit unpleasant, the money comes faster.”
“And you happen to need money.”
“I think Miss Lan, who would kneel for her mother’s sake, has no reason to be unable to endure a little bit of pain, right?”
Su Li’s tone was exceptionally calm, as if the life or death of Lan Yinyun’s mother had nothing to do with her.
In reality, the life or death of Lan Yinyun’s mother truly had nothing to do with her.
She didn’t understand why Lan Yinyun had the nerve to morally coerce her.
She could have done that kind of thing herself.
Why did she think only Su Li could do it?
In truth, only Su Li could do it.
But Su Li felt she was still relatively kind, willing to give this hard-earned opportunity to someone who needed it more.
For example, Lan Yinyun right now.
If she could endure Jin Ke’er’s torment, she would definitely earn enough money to help her mother’s illness get treated.
Without needing to rely on Su Li.
Hearing Su Li’s words, Lan Yinyun felt like she had been sentenced to death.
Her mind couldn’t help but conjure up images of Jin Ke’er’s brutality.
Shattered wine glasses, twisted faces, and hysterical screams.
And those girls who were tortured until they passed out, their original appearances impossible to recognize.
Lan Yinyun’s body trembled instinctively, her fingers tightly clutching the hem of her clothes, cold sweat soaking through her back without her realizing it.
She couldn’t imagine what kind of scene she would be in when facing something like that.
She would die.
She didn’t want to die.
If it was to save her mother, she was willing to do anything.
But she didn’t want to die.
Even if the stake was high, she didn’t want to pay with her life.
She still wanted to live.
She was still young.
She still had a bright future.
Jin Ke’er’s madness coiled around Lan Yinyun’s mind like a venomous snake. As Jin Ke’er’s butler, no one understood better than her what Jin Ke’er was like when she went crazy.
If anyone did, perhaps it was only Su Li.
In the past, Lan Yinyun never thought that hellish scene would be such a painful thing.
But the moment she thought she might become the protagonist of that hellish story, even her breathing carried a suffocating fear.
She didn’t want to die.
Lan Yinyun knelt on the ground, her body trembling uncontrollably.
She had originally thought Su Li, having lost Jin Ke’er, would be living in poverty and easily agree to the conditions.
As for Su Li’s earlier refusal to acknowledge her, pretending not to know her, that was just to raise the stakes.
Now it seemed that wasn’t the case at all.
She discovered that Su Li was truly very calm.
Truly very heartless.
In the past, when she saw Su Li’s money-grubbing demeanor, although she somewhat admired Su Li’s endurance, she still looked down on Su Li in her heart.
After all, as long as she brought Su Li to Jin Ke’er, she would complete the task.
And receive the corresponding payment.
But Su Li was different. Su Li relied on physical labor.
She was living off her youth.
Lan Yinyun truly never imagined she would have a day like this.
Begging like a dog on her knees, wagging her tail and pleading for Su Li’s help.
She still wanted to say something, but Su Li just calmly read her book.
She even suggested Lan Yinyun go be a sandbag to earn money.
She would die.
She would really die.
How could Su Li say something so cold and heartless.
“Su Li, do you know, it’s because of you that so many girls get hurt.”
“If you alone could bear Jin Ke’er’s wrath, everyone could live just fine.”
“I hope you can wake up sooner.”
“Some things, only you can do.”
Lan Yinyun said in a hoarse voice, wanting Su Li to agree to her conditions quickly.
She wanted to leave this place soon.
She didn’t want to kneel on the ground anymore.
Her head hurt.
Her knees were tired too.
She wanted to go back.
She wanted to bring Su Li back, get that sum of money from Jin Ke’er, and save her mother.
Then she could continue being the glamorous butler of the Jin Family.
She didn’t want to get beaten.
She was very afraid of pain.
“What does that have to do with me.”
“If you can push yourself a little.”
“I don’t think other girls would get hurt either.”
“Good for you, good for me, good for everyone.”
“And you’d also earn the money to treat your mother’s illness. Killing multiple birds with one stone.”
“Miss Lan, isn’t that right?”
