Chapter 8: Your credit card has been stolen and swiped.
However, just as everyone was feeling uneasy, a clear ringtone suddenly came from the direction of the main seat, "Ding-dong—".
Everyone was a bit startled. Could it be that the ringtone just now was also from President Gu's phone?
Gu Yuheng's phone was on the table, and whenever it made a sound, the screen would light up, so he could see the content of the message at a mere glance.
"Ding-dong—"
"Dear customer, your credit card ending in 8888 has been charged 188,888 yuan online...]
"Ding-dong—"
[Dear customer, your credit card ending in 8888 has been charged 166,666 yuan online...]
"Ding-dong—"
[Dear customer, your credit card ending in 8888 has been charged 206,666 yuan online...]
"Ding-dong—"
[Dear customer...]
That morning, Gu Yuheng's phone kept ringing "Ding-dong" occasionally, but all he received were spending notification messages.
Gu Yuheng: "..."
He remembered that he hadn't used this credit card since he got it because he didn't have a habit of shopping, so there weren't many opportunities to use a credit card. He originally got this card for a certain ungrateful little thing, but then he changed his mind at the last moment and didn't give it away.
He seemed to have left the card at home or somewhere, right?
As the phone kept ringing "Ding-dong", Gu Yuheng wasn't annoyed; he gestured to Gu Qi behind him to check on it. However, even without checking, he had a rough idea what had happened.
Sure enough, as soon as the meeting ended, Gu Qi reported back to Gu Yuheng, "Third Master, the mall manager said, the card was used by a young lady, probably around 17 or 18 years old, exceptionally beautiful and extravagant! I guess it's probably the young mistress."
Gu Yuheng wasn't surprised by this at all.
Yesterday, the little girl left his place in a huff, and before leaving, she had stayed in their room for quite a while. He guessed that the card was taken then.
Well, since that card was originally intended for her, only that he had forgotten about it after postponing the idea.
And Lin Chuxia, who had just come out from the home improvement mall, was feeling extremely spirited at this moment!
Having just spent a hefty sum of money, she was in an excellent mood, especially since it wasn't her money.
Yes, she had used Gu Yuheng's card.
Who made him anger her yesterday? While she was causing havoc in his room, she happened to see this card in a drawer. Remembering what Gu Yuheng said about deducting her allowance in the car, all her displeasure mingled together, prompting her to boldly take the card.
She wondered if Gu Yuheng had noticed that his card was missing, and whether he would come after her to settle accounts... Lin Chuxia suddenly felt a bit guilty.
Although using the card felt really exhilarating, if Gu Yuheng really came to settle the account... then she would simply say she took it by accident, she could always pay him back!
Who let him place his credit card all over the place and even attach the PIN to the card! It served him right to get his card stolen and misused!
However, why did that six-digit PIN feel so familiar...
608118, isn't that a combination of Gu Yuheng's birthday and her own birthday?
No wonder she always felt that this sequence of numbers looked so familiar!
But why?!
Why did Gu Yuheng's birthday have to be before hers?!
Every time she saw the number 608, Lin Chuxia grew even more furious. Because those three numbers constantly reminded her of what had happened on the night after her college entrance exam ended!
That soulless Gu Yuheng...
And to think she had benevolently wanted to celebrate his birthday with him and had even turned down her class's graduation gala for him!
As a result, that soulless man, taking advantage of his own birthday and the excuse to celebrate the end of their exams, not only got her drunk but also slept with her!
Lin Chuxia gritted her teeth so hard they made a crunching noise.
Although she hadn't been completely drunk that night, somewhat between tipsy and lucid, that only made her even angrier! She would absolutely never admit that she had been enthralled by Gu Yuheng's charm that night!
So, it was all Gu Yuheng's fault!
And she had always thought theirs was the purest relationship between a man and a woman, yet that despicable man didn't hesitate to take advantage of her that night!
It drove her mad!
A year ago, to let her parents leave with peace of mind, she and Gu Yuheng had decided to get married. At the time, she thought it was just an engagement, and marriage would at least wait until after her university graduation... But as soon as she came of age and met the requirements for marriage, Gu Yuheng dragged her to the Civil Affairs Bureau and forced a marriage certificate out of her!
After getting the marriage certificate, she was somewhat worried Gu Yuheng might do something inappropriate, so she guarded against him for a long time. After observing him for a while and making sure he wouldn't do anything to her, she lowered her guard.
And just when she was most relaxed, he took advantage of her! That shameless scoundrel!
If it hadn't been for what happened that night, would she have come to Jincheng early to distract herself, play around, and get acquainted with the surroundings?
If she hadn't come to Jincheng early, maybe she wouldn't have encountered that awful kin-claiming incident, and then all those subsequent messes wouldn't have happened either.
So, no matter how you look at it, it was all that soulless Gu Yuheng's fault!
It infuriated her—she was going to max out his credit card!
Thus, Lin Chuxia unhesitatingly continued swiping Gu Yuheng's card to purchase a bunch of furniture, appliances, and household goods to be delivered to her new house.
Because she was livid deep down, Lin Chuxia was exceptionally lavish as she swiped the card!
If she liked something, she'd buy it immediately! Who cared whether the price was reasonable or not—it wasn't her money anyway!
Since she made purchases without bargaining, the sellers readily accepted her requests. She asked for home delivery, and the shop immediately arranged for someone to help with the delivery.
So practically as soon as Lin Chuxia returned to her small house, all the items she had bought were delivered.
Although she would later move directly into campus housing, dorm life can sometimes be inconvenient. She needed a bit more space to do certain things, and the dorm environment just wouldn't be suitable, and it might also disturb the new roommates.
So for convenience, she went ahead and bought a small three-bedroom apartment near Jincheng University and simply converted it into the layout she wanted.
She bought the apartment in June.
After buying it, she immediately had it remodeled and renovated, and since it was urgent, she used relatively safe and environmentally friendly materials. After airing it out for two or three months, it was nearly ready to move in. She could move in just in time for the school start in September.
The renovation was already completed, and today she had come over just to fill her empty home with some electronics, furniture, or household items.
And since she had Gu Yuheng's credit card on hand, why not use it!
