Return to '93: Family Split at the Start, the Ungrateful Ones Cried Tears of Regret

Wang Peng has been reborn. He has returned to the day when his father forced him to give his college admission notice to his younger brother and dropped out of school to work and support his brothe...

Chapter 402 The problem was suddenly solved

The next morning at ten o'clock, Wang Peng changed his son's diaper, kissed his son's face, and prepared to drive to the company for a drive.

Seeing that he was in low spirits, Li Mingzhu smiled and said, "There's always a way out. Don't worry, things will be resolved sooner or later."

"Where there's a will, there's a way; where there's a road, there's a Toyota?" Wang Peng suddenly thought of this advertising slogan.

“Toyota?” Li Mingzhu laughed. “The fact that you’re in the mood to joke with me means that the matter hasn’t affected you.”

Wang Peng said dismissively, "Don't worry, honey, I have a strong heart and won't be bothered by this kind of thing."

He gently hugged his wife and lightly rubbed his chin against the top of her head.

Li Mingzhu suddenly became emotional and hugged his waist tightly: "Honey, keep going, I believe you can do it."

"Mmm." Wang Peng kissed her forehead, then turned and went downstairs.

On his drive back to the company, he received a call from the court regarding Li Guifen's demand for alimony, and the court asked him to come in for mediation.

Wang Peng shook his head and said with a smile, "I refuse any mediation. Please inform Li Guifen that we can go straight to court."

The judge was somewhat bewildered, and then suggested, "Mr. Wang, you are a public figure in our provincial capital. If this matter becomes widely known, it will affect your reputation and the business of Brother Supermarket."

Wang Peng chuckled. If the judge could think of this, Wang Cheng certainly could too.

Li Guifen dared to make such an outrageous demand for 2,000 yuan a month in alimony, which must have been at Wang Cheng's urging.

If he and Li Guifen have a normal mother-son relationship, he would be willing to give up not just two thousand, but four thousand.

Wang Peng pulled over and called Du Lei, but before he could finish dialing, he switched to Hu Mingyue's number.

There's no other reason than that Du Lei is already overwhelmed by the "branch store entering the Brilliant District" issue, so we don't want to bother him anymore.

Suddenly, he realized that the only people he could truly trust in his company were Du Lei and Hu Mingyue.

He called Hu Mingyue, and when the call connected, Hu Mingyue's sweet voice came through: "Brother, you were looking for me?"

"Find me a lawyer who specializes in handling civil disputes." Wang Peng briefly recounted his alimony dispute with Li Guifen.

After hearing this, Hu Mingyue sneered on the phone: "Shameless people are invincible. Don't worry, brother, I'll take care of the lawyer's matter."

"Thank you," Wang Peng said. "Should I call Mom?"

“Yes, you can listen to his opinion,” Hu Mingyue said. “Are you driving?”

Wang Peng nodded. "I'm driving, you can help me ask around."

Hu Mingyue immediately replied, "Okay, I'll take care of it. Goodbye, brother."

"Goodbye." Wang Peng hung up the phone and continued driving to Brothers Supermarket No. 1.

There were no parking spaces available outside the supermarket, and he was about to go to a nearby park to find a parking spot when he turned around and saw Xu Chenglong cleaning at the entrance.

This once unruly rich kid is now wearing a khaki work uniform and constantly cleaning up the trash on the ground.

At that moment, a little girl casually threw the ice cream wrapper on the ground.

Xu Chenglong immediately picked it up and, under the girl's surprised gaze, threw the mud-covered ice cream wrapper into the trash can.

The girl's face flushed red instantly, and she hurriedly ran away.

Wang Peng witnessed everything and found it somewhat unbelievable. Could it be that Xu Chenglong had really turned over a new leaf?

Just then, his phone started vibrating in his pocket, and he took it out to answer the call.

Du Lei's excited voice came through the phone: "Brother Peng, great news! The Huihuang District has approved our application to open a branch!"

"Oh?" Wang Peng wondered if he had misheard. In just one night, the application that had been delayed for several months was approved?

“Brother Peng, you heard me right.” Du Lei laughed. “I just got a call from them. They’ve agreed in principle and want me to go to Huihuang District to go through the procedures.”

"Yes, that's a good thing. Keep following up." Wang Peng unconsciously clenched his fist.

Although she said she didn't care, her body language betrayed her; her heart was racing with excitement, and she even clenched her teeth.

Two minutes after the call ended, Wang Peng finally calmed down.

Suddenly, he remembered Xu Mengxing, who had been bragging at his house the night before.

"Could it be that Xu Mengxing secretly helped me?" Wang Peng thought about it carefully, and realized that Xu Mengxing really did have this ability.

He hesitated for a few seconds before dialing Xu Mengxing's number.

"Brother Xu, I am Wang Peng."

"Okay, just let me know if you need anything."

"The fact that Huihuang District suddenly agreed to let me open a branch store... thank you!"

“Hehe…” Xu Mengxing said, “Brother, I’m handing A-Long over to you.”

Before he could finish speaking, he hung up the phone in one swift motion.

Wang Peng finally understood that Xu Mengxing had secretly helped him; the old man had gone to great lengths for his precious son.

Wang Peng couldn't help but feel moved by Old Xu's love for his son. He casually opened the window and shouted, "Ah Long!"

Xu Chenglong turned around and saw Wang Peng's car. He picked up a broom and came over. "Brother Peng, you were looking for me?"

"Can you drive?" Wang Peng asked.

"Yes." Xu Chenglong nodded, a hint of envy flashing in his eyes as he looked at Wang Peng's luxury car.

"From now on, be my driver. You don't need to clean anymore," Wang Peng said.

Xu Chenglong was taken aback and did not immediately agree, but instead frowned and thought about it.

Wang Peng became interested and looked at him with a half-smile, wondering what he was hesitating about.

"Brother Peng, why did you suddenly promote me to be your driver?" Xu Chenglong asked, looking into Wang Peng's eyes.

Wang Peng was stumped by his question and suddenly realized that the problem was a bit tricky.

A responsible sanitation worker, after catching the boss's eye, became the boss's driver overnight...

This is definitely not a good thing for large companies.

Wang Peng shook his head slightly and said truthfully, "Your father did me a great favor."

“Brother Peng, I refuse.” Xu Chenglong said in a deep voice, “I want to prove to him that I can make a name for myself even without his help.”

"Why are you always so obsessed with getting ahead... Never mind." Wang Peng scratched his head. "Are you sure you don't want to be a driver?"

Xu Chenglong nodded, "Brother Peng, I want to become the general manager of Brother Supermarket through my own efforts."

"Goodness, you want Du Lei's position?" Wang Peng was both amused and exasperated.

He reached out and patted him on the shoulder, saying, "Alright, since you have the ambition, I'll give you this opportunity. Good luck."

"Okay!" Xu Chenglong nodded, picked up the broom, and returned to the supermarket entrance.

Wang Peng watched him sweep the floor and couldn't help but chuckle. This kid seemed to have grown up overnight.

"Kid, you've successfully caught my attention." Wang Peng laughed and drove to find a parking space.

He found a parking spot and was about to get out of the car when he received a call from the court.

"Comrade Wang Peng, please prepare in advance. The court will hold a hearing in five days regarding the lawsuit filed against you by Comrade Li Guifen."
