<h4>Chapter 1039: A Ride</h4>


    “Fei’er, it’s not that serious. Qiang likes you, so he won’t hurt you. Qiang told me that as long as you go to the bar to have a drink with him tomorrow, he will let me go. I don’t need to pay back the money I owe.”


    “Dad, how can you believe Qiang’s nonsense? How can there be such a good thing in the world? If I go, Qiang won’t let mee back.”


    “I don’t care. Feier. You have to help dad this time. Hurry up ande with Dad.”


    “I’m not going. I have to go to school...”


    The father and daughter were pulling at each other. Ye Xiaotao and her friends saw them and quickly went forward. Ye Xiaotao said, “Are you Ling Feier’s father? If she doesn’t want to go, you should stop dragging her.”


    Father Ling froze. He looked at Ye Xiaotao. “Who are you? This is none of your business.”


    “Since we ran into you, we will intervene!” Ye Xiaotao replied confidently.


    Ling Feier took the opportunity to break free from her father’s control. She hid behind Ye Xiaotao in a panic and said, “I don’t want to go. I won’t go. Please save me!”


    “Fei’er!” The father was furious.


    “Mr. Ling, I advise you to leave. If you dare pull Ling Feier one more time, we will call for help. The police will surely lock you up,” Ye Xiaotao said with a frown.


    When he heard the word “police, Mr. Ling was so frightened that he immediately retreated. He looked left and right, then turned around and ran away. “Feier, my life is in your hands. I will wait for you tomorrow.”


    After Father Ling ran away, Ye Xiaotao turned around and looked at the pale-faced Ling Feier. “Are you alright? Your father has already left. You are safe for now.”


    Ling Feier shook her head and said in a trembling voice, “It’s useless... he is my father. I won’t be able to escape tomorrow...”


    “Ling Feier,” at this moment, Ye Xiaotao’s other friends couldn’t stand it anymore. Everyone spoke up one after another, “Your father is a gambler. He has lost all his money and will sell you next. You might as well cut all ties with him!”


    “That’s right, Ling Feier. You can’t go tomorrow. Now that you’re a college student, you can slowly save up money from proper work. You can support yourself.”


    Ling Feier smiled bitterly, “It’s not that simple. That Qiang person has taken a liking to me and wants me to be his lover. He set my father up to losing all his money. He just wants to use my father to get to me. Qiang is a local hooligan. He’s very powerful in this area. I can’t escape.”


    Ye Xiaotao furrowed her brows. “Ling Feier, then what do you want to do? You can’t just give in, right?”


    “I don’t want to give in, but I don’t have money or power. I’m like an ant. I could very well have died without anyone noticing. Unless...” Ling Feier’s eyes lit up as she looked at Ye Xiaotao. “Xiaotao, please save me.”


    As she spoke, Ling Feier knelt down before Ye Xiaotao.


    “Ling Feier!” Ye Xiaotao quickly stopped her. “If you have something to say, just say it. There’s no need to be so humble. We’re all ssmates. Against such evil forces, if I can help you, I will definitely help you.”


    Ling Feier looked at Ye Xiaotao’s charming little face. She was as beautiful as a rose that had just bloomed in spring. She was the eldest daughter of the Ye family. How would she know the hardships of the poor?


    “Xiaotao, you can definitely help me. I heard that your family is very rich and powerful. Your father and your brother are very capable. As long as you give them a call, I will be able to escape this hopeless situation. Xiaotao, please help me.”


    “Umm...”Ye Xiaotao hesitated.


    “Xiaotao, I’m begging you.” Ling Feier was about to kneel down again.


    “Okay, don’t kneel. I promise you, I will find a resolution when I get back.” Ye Xiaotao nodded.


    “Really? Xiaotao, thank you so much. I owe my life to you.”


    ...


    Ling Feier went back to school. Ye Xiaotao and her friends were walking on the street. Everyone eximed, “That Ling Feier is so pitiful. How did she end up with that scumbag father?”


    “That’s right! Xiaotao, can you really save Ling Feier?”


    Ye Xiaotao blinked her eyes yfully. “I’ll call my dadter. It shouldn’t be a problem.”


    “Xiaotao is the best. Xiaotao is the angel who saves the world,” her friends said,ughing.


    At this moment, a handsome figure appeared in front of them. The boy was holding a book in one hand and a set of car keys in the other. He pressed the car keys, and the dark blue Audi sports car parked by the roadside sounded.


    “Wow, it’s senior Mo!”Ye Xiaotao’s friends eximed in surprise.


    Ye Xiaotao looked up. Mo Zhengyu was a junior, two years older than her. Today, he was wearing a clean white shirt and jeans. He was very handsome, like a prince.


    Ye Xiaotao was quite pleased with him. After all, he was someone she had taken a fancy to.


    At this moment, Mo Zhengyu heard the voices and turned his head in their direction. The boy’s gaze met Ye Xiaotao’s. Ye Xiaotao was not embarrassed at all when he noticed that she was sizing him up. She walked up gracefully and greeted him in a charming voice, “Hello, senior Mo..”


    The gossipy friends were no longer calm. Everyone looked at Mo Zhengyu and then winked at Ye Xiaotao. No matter how they looked at it, the handsome man and beautiful woman would make a perfect couple.


    “Hello, senior Mo. We are all your juniors. Oh, right, you don’t know this beauty beside me, right? Let us introduce her to you. This is...”


    “I know, Ye Xiaotao.” Mo Zhengyu curled his lips and said gracefully.


    When the girls heard this, they eximed in their hearts, ‘Oh, this is good.’.


    “Senior Mo, how did you know about Xiaotao? Don’t tell me... You have been secretly in love with our Xiaotao all this time?” Everyone joked.


    Mo Zhengyu looked at Ye Xiaotao with his bright eyes. He shrugged his shoulders and said, “I think everyone knows Ye.”


    Ye Xiaotao’s eyes immediately curved into a smile when she heard this. Her white teeth were as full and beautiful as pearls. She smiled at Mo Zhengyu and said, “Senior Mo, you have good taste.”


    “Alright, Alright. We’ve had enough.” Her friends immediately jeered. They pushed Ye Xiaotao forward and said, “Senior Mo, Xiaotao is going home. Are you willing to be Xiaotao’s escort and give her a ride?”


    “I’d be happy to.” Mo Zhengyu opened the passenger seat door.


    Ye Xiaotao thought for a moment. She was going to take a ride home anyway. Now that she had someone to escort her home, there’s no reason to refuse.


    “Bye-bye.” She said goodbye to the other girls.


    ...


    In the Audi sportscar, Ye Xiaotao sat in the passenger seat and fasten her seatbelt. At this moment, augh rang in her ears. “Are you scared?”


    “What?” Ye Xiaotao immediately turned her little head. Only after turning did she realize that Mo Zhengyu was leaning towards her. The two of them were very close to each other, and Mo Zhengyu’s handsome face was magnified in her line of sight.
