God-Level Special Forces Soldier - Chapter 411 - 408: Broke Le Yaoyao
Xiao Tian explained, "I just came out of the hospital room!"
"Hospital? Uncle, are you hurt?" Yaoyao’s voice clearly became anxious, "Where are you now?"
Xiao Tian’s heart warmed; it seemed like his usual doting on this little girl was not in vain!
After explaining that he was fine and was just accompanying a friend, Yaoyao finally breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Uncle, hang on a moment!"
Xiao Tian was a bit puzzled, and soon enough, he heard Yaoyao on the other end of the line using a broadcaster’s tone to say, "Do you want to get rich overnight? Do you want to have a game-changing life? Then..."
Listening to Yaoyao reciting the advertisement with clear articulation, Xiao Tian frowned. Could it be that this girl has been brainwashed by a pyramid scheme?
After much effort, Yaoyao finally finished reciting the advertisement, but without hearing a response from Xiao Tian for a while, she had to ask proactively, "Uncle, what do you think? Want to invest some money?"
Xiao Tian: "..."
Undaunted, Yaoyao said, "I have plenty of projects here, wait a bit, I’ll introduce you to another one!"
"As the saying goes, as long as your mind doesn’t slip, there’s always a way out. Take a gamble, and change a bike into a motorcycle. Bet again, and a motorcycle turns into a jeep..."
Listening to Yaoyao’s continuous speech, Xiao Tian’s expression grew more serious. This wasn’t introducing investment projects to him; it was clearly reading him a ’Guide to Prison Entry.’
Thinking about Yaoyao’s innocent nature, it was very likely she could fall for a scam, so he said, "Come by your Aunt’s place tonight!"
Realizing that no matter how she pushed the sales, Xiao Tian wouldn’t be moved, Yaoyao’s voice lowered, "Alright, but Uncle, I want to try one last time!"
"What?" Xiao Tian asked with some confusion, "Try what again?"
Yaoyao explained, "Keke said that this advertisement would make any man tempted!"
Xiao Tian sighed, this girl really is persistent, but was also curious to know what kind of ad would tempt any man?
"The premier online casino of Ao Men has opened..."
Xiao Tian’s vision went black, angrily said, "Le Yaoyao, if I don’t spank you into eight pieces this time, I’ll have been calling you my niece in vain!"
After speaking, he drove angrily straight to the shared apartment of Yaoyao and Keke. Xiao Tian stood outside, knocked on the door, and soon it was opened by Keke.
Keke, seeing Xiao Tian, happily welcomed him in, calling out, "Yaoyao, come out, come see who’s here!"
Yaoyao was startled by Keke’s shout, didn’t expect Xiao Tian to be so quick; would he really spank her?
Knowing she couldn’t avoid it, Yaoyao timidly came out. Saying she walked was inaccurate; she should have shuffled out.
Seeing Yaoyao shuffle along, Keke walked over and secretly gave her a thumbs-up.
"Didn’t expect you to actually pull it off!" Keke whispered to Yaoyao’s ear, "How much is your uncle planning to invest in us?"
Yaoyao had a pitiful look, invest money? This time she feared she wouldn’t get a penny and would instead suffer corporal punishment!
Keke, seeing Yaoyao hang her head without speaking, turned to see Xiao Tian’s stern face, realized the atmosphere was wrong, and quickly found an excuse to escape the scene.
Yaoyao, seeing Keke leaving her behind, was so angry she stomped her little foot.
If Keke were here, her Uncle probably wouldn’t really spank her, but now Keke had left, leaving her alone...
"Uncle, I’m so cute, you wouldn’t bear to hit me, right?" Yaoyao asked tentatively.
Xiao Tian sat silently on the sofa, not moving for a long time, just staring at Yaoyao’s eyes, clearly waiting for her to confess voluntarily.
Yaoyao sat beside Xiao Tian, tugged at the hem of his clothes, like a little girl who had done something wrong, pitifully said, "Uncle, are you really angry?"
Xiao Tian remained unmoved.
Yaoyao was silent for a long time, suddenly her eyes turned red and tears fell like pearls, growing more and more.
"I, I really didn’t mean it!" Yaoyao sobbed, "After we graduated we couldn’t get any gigs, so we planned to start our own economic company, but we had no money..."
Xiao Tian, seeing Yaoyao with her eyes red from crying, felt a bit of heartache but still resisted comforting her, asked, "And then you took up a telemarketing job?"
"No, actually... actually I saw on the news on TV that someone earned over a million by reading those ads over the phone and thought I’d try to see if I could make money."
Xiao Tian interjected, "To correct you, it’s not earning, it’s scamming!"
"Then the host said, generally for such money-making..." seeing Xiao Tian frown, Yaoyao quickly corrected herself, "Generally for such scams, people usually start with those closest to them, as it’s easier to succeed that way!"
"We tried many ways, Keke even sold her favorite limited-edition dresses, but the money was still far from enough."
"I originally didn’t want to do this, but Keke said to treat it as borrowing from you, and I thought it made sense, that after making money I’d return more with interest, so I foolishly called you!"
Yaoyao said and started crying again, "I realized my mistake right after hanging up, but it was too late, Uncle, just spank me!"
Having said that, she stood up and threw herself onto Xiao Tian. Xiao Tian gently patted her back, and suddenly remembered the ’ad’ Yaoyao last mentioned to him, asked, "Who else did you recite those ads to?"
Yaoyao said aggrievedly, "Just auntie and you, but as soon as I said an ad, Aunt hung up the phone."
Xiao Tian imagined Lin Bingxuan hearing Yaoyao saying that classic pyramid scheme line ’Do you want to get rich overnight?’, visualizing Lin Bingxuan’s expression at that moment, couldn’t help but laugh.
"Uncle, you laughed!" Seeing Xiao Tian couldn’t hold back laughter, Yaoyao smiled through her tears.
"Then why didn’t you directly ask us for money?"
Hearing Xiao Tian’s question, Yaoyao began to frown, a bit dejectedly, "The family had told Aunt not to lend me any money."
"Then why not find me!" Xiao Tian was perplexed, "Had you asked, I wouldn’t have said lend; I would’ve just given it to you!"
"Really!" Yaoyao’s eyes lit up, she hugged Xiao Tian’s neck, and gave him a big kiss on the cheek.
"Uncle, you’re the best!"
Yaoyao began to blame Keke, if not for her encouragement at that time, she would’ve already been a millionaire!
"Hand it over!" Yaoyao reached out confidently, "Don’t worry, Uncle, with my wit and intelligence, I will make sure every penny is spent wisely."
Xiao Tian felt as if he were hearing things, as if Yaoyao was really saying she would make sure every penny got scammed away.
"It could have been given to you directly." Xiao Tian changed his tone, "But now... I need to think it over carefully."
