“This female comrade…… cough cough…… Are you comrade Gu’s wife?” 

Old man Mao asked with concern, with his waist bent lower, which made him look more pitiful and humble.

“Cough cough…… Old comrade…… Cough cough…… I am his wife…… Cough cough…… I know you’re not living well…… Cough cough…… Logically, I shouldn’t force you like this…… Cough cough……” 

Chu Qiao’s cough was much more pitiful than old man Mao, as she coughed a few times while speaking, and it took her several minutes to finish a sentence. 

Old man Mao gritted his teeth secretly and was furious. 

This woman actually used his tricks to deal with him, she was too cunning.

“Old Mao, don’t ask anymore! Can’t you see this female comrade is so sick that she can barely breathe? If you have any conscience left, hurry up and pay back their money!” 

Someone shouted loudly, standing up for Chu Qiao. 

Others also quickly voiced their agreement, “Debts should be repaid, Old Mao, you borrowed so much money…… How much longer do you plan to avoid paying it back? Can’t you see that she can’t even afford the medicine? And her children were so starved that they are just skin and bones? Has your conscience been eaten by dogs?” 

“Stop pretending to be sick! Just now you still had plenty of strength to kick those two kids around, didn’t you? You’re in such good health, while she can barely speak. Don’t you feel any shame?” 

The crowd was full of voices condemning Debtor Mao. 

Chu Qiao and her two children were truly pitiful. How could there be such miserable people in this world ah?  

Old Mao was truly despicable! 

No one wanted to live near someone like him! 

“Thank you…… Thank you everyone…… cough cough cough cough……” 

Chu Qiao bowed to the crowd in gratitude, but just the act of bowing made her nearly fall over. 

Gu Ye who finally came to his senses, immediately rushed over to support her, while anxiously asked, “Qiao Qiao, what’s wrong?” 

He had a hunch about what Chu Qiao was trying to do, but she and the two children were so convincing that even Gu Ye also believed that she was gravely ill. 

His face was full of worry, and this made everyone believe it even more. 

They all glared angrily at Debtor Mao. 

It was all because of this old scoundrel, he was even worse than an animal! 

“I’m fine…… cough cough cough…… Dear husband, how much money…… do you need…… cough cough……” 

Chu Qiao’s face was pale and haggard, but her eyes were still bright, looking at Gu Ye with hope. 

Gu Ye shook his head in shame, feeling very uncomfortable and useless. 

Chu Qiao’s bright eyes immediately dimmed, and the surrounding crowd couldn’t help but sigh. 

They sympathized more with Chu Qiao, and naturally their hatred for Old Mao grew stronger. 

“It’s alright…… cough cough…… maybe this old comrade has some difficulties…… cough cough…… We are not in a hurry ah…..” 

Chu Qiao spoke softly to comfort everyone, but her eyes no longer shone brightly, making the crowd even more emotional, their eyes reddening once again. 

What a good woman! Even at this time, she was still comforting her husband. Such a kind-hearted woman should not be wronged by the world ah! 

“Old Mao, you are really a piece of sh*t, are you going to pay back the money or not?” An impatient person angrily approached Old Mao, helping Gu Ye demand repayment. 

“Pay back the money, you heartless old man! You live in such a big house, and you are always buying fish and shrimp. Even just a few days ago, I saw you buying big prawns that are as long as my hands, and you still say you have no money?”   

“Yesterday his wife also brought big crabs, aiyooh, they were 4 ounces each! Bigger than my palm! Those crabs aren’t cheap ah, Old Mao has plenty of money!” 

“You are really heartless, having money but shamelessly refusing to pay. Aren’t you afraid of retribution?” 

  ……

The enthusiastic crowd began voicing their accusations, even providing evidence of Old Mao’s wealth. Saying he was eating fish, shrimp, and even big crabs, which were considered as luxurious ingredients in the neighborhood, so how could he possibly be broke? 

Chu Qiao secretly smiled. Playing the pitiful card was indeed the best way to gain sympathy.
