Chapter 254 The Poor Bullied Child (21)
"Brother Ding Yi, we are also..."
"That's enough. Senior Jiang found the accompanist for you from the beginning. Now he's on strike. I can't do anything about it. You can't ask me to accompany you at the last minute, right?"
"You're the only one I could think of. I overestimated my own abilities. I'm sorry."
"Student Ding, why don't you just give me a hand?"
"Heartless, Mr. Fan, if this boy won't help, shall I go and help you?"
"Ding Yi, did you bully Hongbo again?"
Hearing the girl's roar from behind, looking at Fan Hongbo's smug look, Ding Yi felt that this man was shameless to the extreme.
"Is it bullying? Ask everyone here. His piano accompanist ran away. If I don't serve as a substitute, I am bullying him. How can this be justified?"
Others were also thoughtful and discussed: "It seems that this matter cannot be said this way."
"With the strength of the Fan family, it is impossible that they cannot afford an accompanist. Could it be..."
"That accompanist was hired by Senior Sister Jiang. He has a nice personality. Why did he go on strike? Maybe there was an emergency at home."
"It's no use trying to cram at the last minute for Ding Yi. There are so many people in this school who are good at playing the piano. Do you know what Fan Hongbo sees in Ding Yi? Could it be that the program has been changed to a duet performance where they dance and draw comics at the same time?"
“This is a good performance.”
Ding Yi looked at Fan Hongbo's embarrassed expression, then looked at Jiang Aoqing, and said again: "I'm very busy. Senior Jiang, the accompanist you found ran away. I can't help you with this problem. Don't say I'm heartless."
Jiang Aoqing lowered her attitude and said in a gentle tone, "Yiyi, Hongbo is also anxious. What's wrong with you helping him?"
Ding Yi didn't know when Jiang Aoqing became so uncultured. It seemed that she always thought that Fan Hongbo was not wrong.
This afternoon, Ding Yi saw the conflict between Jiang Aoqing and Fan Hongbo. Jiang Aoqing, who was in a bad mood, found Fan Hongbo very annoying and forgot to deal with the issue of the accompanist.
Because Jiang Aoqing had been under pressure from Jiang's mother recently, Jiang's brief financial crisis came suddenly. It was accounts payable of 300 million yuan, and the other party was a large company.
If the Jiang family doesn't pay back the money sooner, once they are labeled as deadbeats, who would dare to do business with them in the future?
But this was the result of Jiang's father's and sister's corruption. This was not the first time such a thing had happened, and many wealthy people simply perfunctorily refused to help.
"If that's the case, then many of our schoolmates have learning difficulties, family difficulties, and no other special skills. Senior Sister Jiang, Junior Brother Fan, why don't you help them?"
"Brother Ding Yi, what do you mean?"
"You are rich people, so you should save some money and help those students in need. Then they won't have such a hard time studying. It's not a lot, just a few hundred thousand will solve the problem. Isn't it better than using the money for gambling?"
"Ding Yi!"
"Don't use moral blackmail on me. The Ding family is down and out, but before they fell into poverty, they invested 400 million yuan in the poor students' fund every year. Before they were about to go bankrupt, they invested 200 million yuan for free. How much have the Fan family, the Jiang family, or other wealthy families invested?"
"We were discussing why you didn't help..."
"That's enough. It's my choice whether to help or not. Why don't you help? Is moral kidnapping interesting? Don't use the excuse that it's not easy for him to come here. Fan Hongbo has a wealthy family and so many rich friends. It's impossible that he can't help any of them."
"I'm not the kind of person who helps others casually..."
"I'm the only one who's not busy. Do you think I'm easy to bully? I have to catch the bus. You guys can find someone else."
Ding Yi hurried away with his schoolbag on his back. The onlookers shook their heads. They knew right from wrong, but the excitement was too short.
"Sister Aoqing, I didn't mean it. Brother Ding Yi, did you..."
"That's enough, Hongbo, you know Ding Yi has to catch the first bus after school every day, so it's hard to tell him if he has any problems when he gets home."
"I just saw that he was still in school, my accompanist..."
Talking about the issue of the accompanist, Jiang Aoqing was ridiculed by those rich second-generations for a long time because of this matter. After all, the accompanist's teacher was a famous musician and it was not easy to offend him.
Because of this incident, her family increased their efforts to collect accounts receivable and started collecting the accounts receivable half a month in advance.
"It's not like the Fan family can't afford an accompanist. Yi Yi doesn't know that kind of thing, so it's useless for you to find him."
"It turns out they really are blackmailing people morally. They know that people won't be able to do it, but they still come to them. This is the nth time they have done this."
"I also have to work part-time. The last few years have been tough."
"Didn't you have to work part-time before?"
"I can't help it. The Ding family went bankrupt, and the foundation doesn't have much money. My subsidy quota was replaced by someone else, and there is no subsidy for next semester."
"Don't mention it. Ding Yi now travels by bus. He used to have a special car to pick him up. Although the Ding family's business has closed down, it had a good credit and reputation before."
"It's a pity that Ding Shoushan died in a car accident, otherwise she would have prepared a scholarship plan with other big guys, and we could have gotten more scholarships. I heard this when I was in junior high school."
Jiang Aoqing's face froze and she lowered her head feeling a little guilty. The couple's death was big news for the city of Nantong.
"Some people are rich, but they can't even afford an accompanist, and they are stingy."
"The Ding family had encountered a huge foreign enterprise merger crisis before, but Grandma Ding would rather go bankrupt than sell out the country, so she gave the technology directly to the Ministry of Military Industry for free."
"The Jiang family is like a traitor, always aiding our country's mortal enemy, the overseas students. Look at Mr. Ding... Ugh!"
"do not talk."
Everyone looked at Jiang Aoqing's increasingly gloomy face and walked away. Everyone understood a lot of things, but they just couldn't cause trouble for themselves. If they couldn't afford it, they could just leave.
The corridor was soon empty. Fan Hongbo looked at Ding Yi's seat and began to plan his vicious thoughts. Ding Yi would always sway Jiang Aoqing, and he couldn't just sit there and wait for death.
"Sister Aoqing, I didn't mean it. It's OK if Brother Ding Yi doesn't want to help."
"That accompanist said you bullied him. Tell me honestly, did you bully him?"
"I didn't, it was that man who kept saying my ideas were bad and he didn't have time to revise my new accompaniment."
"Hongbo, I hate people who tell lies. Ding Yi is right. The Fan family is not so poor that they cannot afford an accompanist."
"That accompanist is too arrogant. It's not like the others can't change it."
"When it comes to accompaniment, what do you think of Ding Yihui? Why did you come to him, Hongbo? Until now, I think I can't see you clearly."
Fan Hongbo, who had been lowering his head, raised his head with tears in his eyes. Jiang Aoqing became nervous and comforted him: "Don't cry, I didn't bully you."
"Sister Ao Qing, I am useless and have failed your expectations. Go ahead and scold me."
"I've been in a bad mood these past few days, so my words may have been a little harsh. Don't cry."
Fan Hongbo threw himself into Jiang Aoqing's arms. The girl froze, then looked around and saw no one, so she hugged him tightly.
"Sister Aoqing, I will go back and apologize to Brother Ding Yi."
"Yiyi has to study at night and doesn't like to be disturbed."
