Belle understood, “In other words, if Dad doesn"t pay yet, he will pay back with Belle"s pocket money?”
Jiang Miaomou nodded, “Yes, would you?”
Yao Zhijie stared blankly at Jiang Miaomiao.
Belle looked at Yao Zhijie again, then took a deep breath, nodded solemnly to Jiang Miaomiao, and said loudly, “I do!”
Jiang Miaomiao began to calculate with her, “Your pocket money is 100 yuan a month, and 1200 yuan a year. Now, I allow you to use two years of pocket money to guarantee him and lend your father 2,400 yuan. If your Dad can"t pay the 2400 yuan. Then you would have no pocket money for the next two years. Do you understand? "
Belle looked sad, but nodded firmly, “Yes! I"m willing to vouch for my dad.”
Yao Zhijie was dissatisfied, and said disdainfully, “Not only that you are lending me 2,400 yuan, but you also asked Belle to guarantee with her pocket money. Jiang Miaomiao, can you act a little bit better?”
Jiang Miaomiao looked at him, without a smile, “If you don"t want the money, you don"t have to borrow it.”
Yao Zhijie snorted, “I won"t borrow from you!” He crouched down in front of Belle, smiling, and said, “Belle, will you lend your pocket money and New Year"s money to your father?”
Belle bowed her head slyly and twisted her fingers, “My pocket money and New Year"s money are gone…”
“Nothing?” Yao Zhijie raised his tone.
“Was it confiscated by your mother?”
Belle quickly shook her head, “No, I spent it all myself.”
Yao Zhijie frowned, “Just the new year money I gave you was a total of 20,000 to 30,000, right? Plus the money other people gave you, and your pocket money, it should be tens of thousands of dollars. How did you spend it?”
Belle lowered her head and said, “It"s all spent in Dad"s game. I heard from my Dad"s uncles and aunts that no one played your game and no one bought it. They said Dad"s company can"t last long. So I played your game every day, and I put that money into the game. “
Yao Zhijie"s expression was almost to the point of crying.
Jiang Miaomiao stood on the side and looked at him with a sneer.
“Then I won"t borrow money from you!” Yao Zhijie stood up and said to Jiang Miaomiao, “Making the child use her pocket money as a guarantee. You can do this kind of thing, but I can"t do it.”
Before Jiang Miaomiao could reply, Belle yanked Yao Zhijie"s clothes and said anxiously, “Daddy, don"t be stubborn! I don"t want you to be hungry, I don"t want you to sleep in the park and be frozen to death.”
Yao Zhijie sighed, and said bitterly to Belle, “Bell, 2400 yuan won"t do anything. With this money, you can"t even rent a decent house in Xinhai.”
Belle was at a loss, “What then?”
Yao Zhijie said, “Your mother still has two houses. Could you please ask mom to let me borrow a house for Dad to live in? Or let dad to stay at your home temporarily? Dad can live in Belle"s room, OK? “
Jiang Miaomiao"s patience finally came to an end, and she angrily shouted, “Yao Zhijie, you are so shameless!”
Su Yutan quickly reminded her on the phone, “Control yourself! You can"t keep Yao Zhijie to live at home because the court doesn"t allow him to get along with Belle. Keeping him at home would be difficult to prevent them from being alone together, and that would violate the court"s decision."
“If he doesn"t have a place to live, he can go to a government-run shelter or a homeless home run by a charity. People can live for free in these houses.”
As for living in his house, Jiang Miaomiao could only refuse.
Jiang Miaomou held back, stating the reasons provided by Su Yutan, and said, “As for my two houses, I have already rented them out and signed long-term contracts. I cannot tear up the contract and drive people away to give you the house. “
Instead of looking at Jiang Miaomiao, Yao Zhijie said to Belle, “Belle, please help your father.”
With anxiety in her face, Belle pleaded with Jiang Miaomiao.
Jiang Miaomiao said to Belle, “There is no room for negotiation.”
Yao Zhijie continued to sell his poor state, “Belle, look at how cruel your mother is! She would rather let strangers live in your house than dad. She wants me to live on the street, freeze to death, starve to death or get killed by a hooligan…”
Su Yutan shook her head and said to Jiang Miaomiao, “You remind Yao Zhijie that if he talks nonsense to Belle like this you will take the evidence to the court to sue him and let the court suspend his visit.”
Jiang Miaomiao repeated Su Yutan"s words to Yao Zhijie.
As soon as Yao Zhijie heard it, his face slowly turned ugly. He looked at Jiang Miaomiao grudgingly, and glared at the monitoring bracelet.
Instead of continuing his pity act, he said to Jiang Miaomiao in a cold tone, “Although we have been divorced, we have been a husband and wife. Now that I am in a bad state, do you really have the heart to see me die?”
Jiang Miaomiao"s eyes were filled with tears, but her expression was extremely cold, “Why? How did you treat me when we divorced? You were so intimate with that woman. But for Belle"s sake, I wanted to give you a chance and be together. But what did you do?"
“You got people to hypnotize me. You framed me for adultery, and took away my hard-earned money…"
“Did you know? This. .h.i.t me a thousand times and ten thousand times more than my husband"s infidelity. I cannot forget this! Yet you still want me to consider old love! What old love do we have?”
Yao Zhijie snorted, “If you have no evidence, don"t charge me wrongly. Otherwise, be careful, I will sue you for slander!”
The tears in Jiang Miaomiao"s eyes rolled down, “Yao Zhijie, I really don"t have the brains to collect the evidence, and I can"t help you. But I tell you, heaven is watching whatever people do. You do bad things! Do it again! Lest the Lord can"t stand it anymore and take care of you in person!”
Belle watched her mother and father quarrel. She heard what they said, and got frightened.
Su Yutan sighed and said to Jiang Miaomiao on the phone, “Take Belle home! It is no longer suitable to continue meeting her father today.”
Jiang Miaomiao took Belle"s hand, turned and walked away, while wiping her tears.
Belle didn"t dare to react. She looked back at her father, and turned her back anxiously at her mother.
Yao Zhijie stood on the spot, looking gloomily at the back of their departure. The corner of his mouth gradually evoked a cold smile.
In the evening, Jiang Miaomiao called Su Yutan, “Thank you very much today! Without you, I really don"t know how to deal with Yao Zhijie"s schemes…”
Su Yutan was still watching the video when she called, watching Yao Zhijie"s final look over and over again.
She sighed and said to Jiang Miaomiao, “Yao Zhijie"s expression was not right when you left. This time, you need to pay extra attention to safety.”
Jiang Miaomiao"s face changed drastically, “What do you mean? Would Yao Zhijie dare to do anything to me?”
Su Yutan shook her head, “Maybe I worried too much. But you can"t be defenseless. If you have an accident and Yao Zhijie is not suspicious, then he may still become Belle"s guardian and take over everything.”
Su Yutan was worried and began to rack her brains to figure out how to deal with Yao Zhijie, but she never expected that Yao Zhijie would have an accident first.
