Chapter 618:1 Deserve to Help Him for the Rest of My Life?

She had always thought that it was fine as long as she found a rich partner, but if she really had to marry into that kind of family, she would rather eat rotten vegetables.
Lin Gantang understood Che Qin. It was understandable that she wanted to marry a rich man. There was nothing wrong; who didn’t want to?
Who didn’t want their lives to go smoothly in the future? They didn’t have to worry about daily necessities and didn’t have to run around to make ends meet.
On the other hand, the Fang family was rich. They were a group of scheming people with honeyed words and hidden motives. The children left behind by the ex-wives would not really treat Che Qin as their mum. She would feel tired even just marrying into the family.
Even if Fang Yanyue died one day, she might not be able to get the assets. Those people wanted to swallow all the assets. Could Che Qin really keep what belonged to her?
“Should I find someone to act as your boyfriend?” Lin Gantang suggested.
Che Qin shook her head. “Even if someone is willing, it’s impossible for them to fork out a large sum of money to help the Che family resolve their problem. What’s more, my dad thinks that the Fang family can invest money to solve the predicament.”
They had no relations, so why should he spend money on her? Moreover, they were pretending to be a couple.
“So you’ve already made your decision to leave?” Lin Gantang asked.
Che Qin nodded. However, the moment she nodded, tears streamed down her face.
Perhaps she was reluctant to part, or perhaps she resented her father’s ruthlessness.
Lin Gantang couldn’t figure it out. She asked, “Your family has always been fine. Why is there a sudden shortage of funds?”
“My dad… My dad gambled.” Che Qin found it hard to get it out.
He had secretly taken the cash flow and lost badly, so he was in a hurry to get his hands on some money.
“Gantang, if I run away, perhaps others would think that I’m unfilial. My family raised me and I just left.” Che Qin’s tears flowed more and more fiercely. “But my dad is short of money and has his eyes on me. If there is a first time, there will be a second time. He raised me, but do I deserve to spend the rest of my life paying off his gambling debts?”
Her dad hadn’t been such a person in the past. Although he was realistic, he had never thought of selling off his daughter. Now that he had become like this, it was scary.
Lin Gantang had seen crazy gamblers who would really spend all their money and abandon their wives and children.
“Have you really thought it through?” Lin Gantang asked.
“My dad is too strong. No one in the family can persuade him to change his mind. I’ve been following his arrangements since I was young. This time, I really don’t want to listen to him.”
“But hiding won’t solve the problem at its root.”
“I’ll dodge first and slowly think of other ways. If I’m not around, the Fang family will find someone else.” Che Qin bit her lip. “So what if I can raise money? I can’t guarantee that my dad won’t use it to gamble again.”
“He’ll send someone to look for you even if you leave,” Lin Gantang said as she handed her a tissue to wipe her tears.
“My dad isn’t that capable,” Che Qin mocked.
“If you’ve really thought it through, I can help you.”
As soon as Lin Gantang finished speaking, Che Qin’s tears fell again.
She knew that Lin Gantang was helping her out of kindness, and not because it was her duty.
When Zhang Rongqing wanted to drug Lin Gantang, no one with a conscience would help her. Wen Yanqing had repaid the debt of gratitude for helping Lin Gantang deal with the knife-wielding criminal on Hejiang Road back then with her work at the Time Gallery. Lin Gantang had been very good to her these days, so how could she force Lin Gantang to lend a helping hand?
Che Qin stood up and bowed deeply. She wiped her tears away. “Thank you, Tangtang. I don’t know how to thank you. If you need my assistance in the future, I will definitely help..”
