Chu Yi tilted her head, and with her high emotional intelligence, she immediately understood the reason: "So you want to be a hero and save the damsel in distress, but you can't find a way to do it. You're pretty smart."
Shen Xinze said with a mournful face, "I was wrong."
"Where did we go wrong?"
"I looked for the wrong person; I found your brother."
Upon hearing this, Chu Yi frowned and pointed at Shen Xinze's temple: "So you're blaming yourself for choosing the wrong partner? Bad luck, huh?"
Still no repentance!
How can we help someone like this?
It's hopeless!
Shen Xinze said softly, "I'm sorry."
"Sorry is all I have to say."
Next, Chu Yi launched a scathing attack on Shen Xinze, reducing him from a human being to an animal, even worse than a pig or a dog. The two sides then signed a series of unfair treaties before Chu Yi finally let the other go and resolved the matter. Shen Xinze then hurriedly left.
Watching that retreating figure, Chu Fang's face was full of smiles, Zhou Qiong pursed her lips, appearing calm and collected as the person involved, while Chu Yi said disdainfully, "Pure idiot!"
She glanced at Chu Fang sideways and said with annoyance, "You still have the nerve to laugh? As the older brother, you're helping outsiders deceive your sister, and you're just going to let him get away with it like this?"
Chu Fang shrugged.
What can we do then?
I can't exactly have someone beat up Shen Xinze; that's not his style. Besides, this whole thing is over before it even started.
Most importantly, Chu Fang thought Chu Yi's way of doing things was quite good and aligned with his own ideas.
“If you’re unhappy, just quit your job,” he said. “Go travel and see the sights.”
Chu Fang believes that people should play more before graduating from university, and once they graduate, they will face endless work and family troubles, with no spare time.
Chu Yi said, "I don't care, but Qiongqiong can't bear to part with it; it's three or four hundred yuan a day."
"Three or four hundred?" Gao Ruoyun, who was very sensitive to numbers, craned her neck and asked, "For your job, you get three or four hundred a day?"
In the past few days, Gao Ruoyun has seen Chu Yi and Zhou Qiong working. Every day they distribute materials and introduce the company to the parents present. That's all they do. And for such a simple job, the salary is three or four hundred.
She and Zhong Ping worked hard on the farm at home, but they didn't earn much money even after a month of backbreaking work.
Gao Ruoyun thought for a moment and said, "Um... Yiyi, if it's not difficult, could you bring Auntie along?"
She smelled the scent of money and wanted to make some.
"No problem." Chu Yi patted his chest. "That 'draining the pond to catch all the fish' owes me a favor. I can get you, Auntie, to work at our company."
In a short while, the two reached an agreement. Then Chu Yi led Gao Ruoyun toward Shen Xinze, who practically bowed and scraped, agreeing to join the company for the next few days and do some day-paid work.
Chu Fang sat there, scratching the back of his head, looking somewhat bewildered.
Mother-in-law, we came here to take care of Zhong Rou during her high school entrance exam, not to make money. How come you went to make money in the blink of an eye and left me aside?
Are they obsessed with money?
"Brother, I'm sorry for causing you trouble," Zhou Qiong said apologetically.
"What's the trouble?" Chu Fang said dismissively, patting Zhou Qiong on the back of the head. "When you're out and about, you must be brave enough to refuse. If you encounter someone like Shen Xinze, don't be shy, definitely refuse. A person doesn't need..."
Zhou Qiong is a strong girl, but also very weak and gentle. Perhaps she lacked love since childhood and is prone to trusting others. If she hadn't run into Chu Fang today, Shen Xinze might have succeeded.
Zhou Qiong listened quietly. Since her grandparents passed away, no one had ever said these things to her.
... ...
As the sun set, a series of noises, accompanied by the sound of dinging bells, came from inside the school.
The high school entrance exam is over.
Less than ten seconds after the bell rang, a bolt of lightning shot out of the school, and the first person to rush out of the school was seen.
"Aha, Lady Zhong is free today!!!"
“... ..."
Zhong Rou's entrance is always so domineering and infectious. In one interview, she even performed a set of "Zhong-style Eight Fists" on the spot. When the fat man who had bullied Wen Qing a few days ago saw it, his mouth twitched and his eyes were full of fear. He hurriedly walked away.
Wenqing then walked out of the school gate. Zhong Rou put one hand on Wenqing's shoulder and said, "Wenqing, I've made up my mind. Let's wander the world, travel across mountains and rivers, make the world our home, and live a life of hardship. Just thinking about it is exciting."
Wenqing already understood Zhong Rou's nature; she was a carefree person who always dreamed of being a chivalrous woman who roamed the world with a sword—how wonderful that would be! She said softly, "Okay, Rou Rou, you have to protect me."
"No problem." Zhong Rou patted her chest. "Ouch, ouch, Mom, stop pulling my ear."
Gao Ruoyun glared at her little daughter: "You're wandering the world on your own, why are you taking Wenqing with you? Don't you think you're getting too big for your britches? Hmm... You have so much time after your high school entrance exam, why don't you get used to high school studies in advance? I can enroll you in my company, maybe you'll even get a discount."
Gao Ruoyun thought it over and over and found it more and more reliable. She had to find something for her little girl to do, otherwise, this person might cause her some trouble. So she decided to do it and dragged Zhong Rou to sign up.
Zhong Rou, on the other hand, was holding onto Gao Ruoyun's arm, her legs sliding forward while her whole body leaned back, every organ in her body conveying her refusal: "Mom~~~, I don't want to start school early. I have excellent grades, I don't need those things."
At this moment, Zhong Rou looked incredibly pitiful, no longer possessing her former dashing and domineering demeanor.
She doesn't want to go to school...
Chu Fang offered some advice, and Gao Ruoyun did not register her youngest daughter for the high school entrance exam. After the exam, Chu Fang drove Zhong Rou and Wen Qing back to their neighborhood, while Gao Ruoyun stayed at Yulin Middle School, working her job that paid three or four hundred yuan.
Gao Ruoyun was very excited and had boundless passion and love for going to work.
