59: Successfully overcome the first love's admiration for strength.

"How will you solve it?"

Zhang Yu looked at her expression and couldn't help but smile, "If you could solve it, you wouldn't have been given the cold shoulder at the door."

Those words truly struck a chord in Xu Mufie's heart.

Instantly, the soft inner core beneath her forcibly strong exterior was moved.

That's right.

The Culture and Tourism Department had owed this debt for a long time.

After asking for it so many times, they always used various excuses to shirk and delay. Xu Mufie even felt that her job was going to be ruined by this debt.

"Then Zhang Yu, do you have a solution?"

Xu Mufie asked tentatively.

Now she didn't know who else she could turn to.

"Yes, it's just a matter of a phone call." Zhang Yu's expression was very calm.

Watching him treat the matter as if it were nothing.

Hope ignited in Xu Mufie's heart, yet she also found it somewhat unbelievable.

Then.

She saw Zhang Yu answer a call.

At this moment.

In the office of the top leader of the Culture and Tourism Department.

Liang Yan saw Zhang Yu's incoming call.

A chill couldn't help but run through her heart.

"Mr. Zhang, is there something you need by calling?"

Didn't we already clarify everything when you left?

How is it that the call came back less than 20 minutes later?

"Director Liang, do you owe the bank a loan that hasn't been repaid?"

"What loan? I don't know what you're talking about."

Liang Yan said subconsciously.

"How much is this loan, and what was it used for?"

Zhang Yu lowered his voice and turned his head to ask.

"A 20 million credit line for the resort." Xu Mufie reminded him from the side.

He listened, then immediately relayed the information to the person on the other end.

"What? A 20 million credit line?"

Only now did Liang Yan figure out what was happening.

Since the amount was large, she naturally remembered it clearly.

Indeed, the Culture and Tourism Department had borrowed this money for project expenditures.

However, the money originally intended for repayment.

Had been diverted elsewhere, so the repayment of this money had been continuously delayed.

People from the bank had come to demand it several times before.

But in the end, they were unsuccessful and were sent away.

Why was Zhang Yu the one demanding this money this time?

What's going on? Does that girl from the bank have a connection with him?

The world shouldn't be that small, right?

"Your failure to repay the 20 million loan has already caused serious harm to their work. Regardless, you must repay it today." Zhang Yu declared, "Otherwise, this matter will be disadvantageous to you..."

"Or else what?" Liang Yan hadn't even finished her sentence.

When she suddenly realized that her handle was still in his hands.

Was she crazy to oppose him?

So she immediately changed her tone, "Mr. Zhang, it's not that I don't want to repay it. It's just that we are currently facing financial difficulties and can't produce that much money immediately."

"If you can't produce it, you can borrow it."

Zhang Yu smiled.

"Borrow? Who would I borrow from?" Liang Yan showed a troubled expression. "20 million is not a small sum; how could I raise it that quickly?"

"You can borrow from me."

Zhang Yu smiled, "I have a financial company under my name. The procedures are faster than the bank's, and the interest isn't much higher than the bank's. You just need to provide equivalent collateral."

This is why action brings profit.

Didn't the company just gain another piece of business?

Lending 20 million to Liang Yan with collateral meant he wasn't afraid she wouldn't repay it.

Moreover, the annual interest would easily exceed 2 million.

Doing this brought him all the benefits and zero harm.

"Alright, that works..."

Liang Yan thought it over repeatedly and finally nodded, "This is the only way."

Robbing Peter to pay Paul, the debt wasn't reduced, but the creditor was changed.

And this creditor was much harder to provoke than the bank.

Now, she was truly at his mercy.

Xu Mufie, who was driving beside him, listened as Zhang Yu, just in the time it took to make a phone call.

Solved the 20 million debt problem. Her eyes widened, and she found it hard to describe her shock.

Anyone who has worked in the financial industry knows how difficult debt collection is.

Forget about a huge deal worth 20 million.

Even a small order of 2 million would be extremely difficult to recover.

This challenge, which was her biggest headache, was resolved by Zhang Yu in just a few words.

How could she not be shocked?

"Zhang Yu, I don't even know how to thank you..."

Xu Mufie said softly.

After not seeing him for several years, the young boy who used to walk to and from school with her.

Now possessed such charisma and strength that he commanded respect.

As a woman, who doesn't admire strength?

At this moment, Zhang Yu's image was elevated significantly above her past memories of him.

Her heart couldn't help but start to race with fanciful thoughts.

She wondered if Zhang Yu still held the same feelings for her from back then.

"If you really want to thank me. Why don't you finish that thing we didn't complete a few years ago?"

Zhang Yu looked at her and suddenly smiled mysteriously.
