Qu Yiheng did not give Li Meng the money; he refused on the grounds that it was too late to withdraw cash from the village.
Li Meng did not press the matter too hard. She simply felt it was a great pity; in this day and age, inter-city banking was extremely inconvenient. It was impossible for Qu Yiheng to carry a bankbook around while traveling the country. Even if he did have it with him, there was no way to get to the county or city to make a withdrawal in time—it would take at least three days to process the funds.
Li Meng had once hinted that Qu Yiheng should secretly siphon some money from the Anxin Food Factory accounts to use for now and pay it back once he made a profit. However, seeing the look on Qu Yiheng’s face, which could only be described as ghastly, she didn’t dare say anything more direct.
