Chen Wenhao pushed open the door and entered. When he looked up and saw the scene before him, he was completely dumbfounded.
Chen Qian held Ye Xingchen's hands, the two were very close, and judging from her appearance, it seemed that she needed comforting.
Chen Wenhao is young, but what doesn't this kind of brat know? Especially when it comes to matters of male-female relationships, he is very clear about them.
If things continue like this for a while, these two will probably start kissing.
Thinking of this, Chen Wenhao was filled with regret. If he had come in later, wouldn't the two of them have already made it a fait accompli?
My older sister is getting on in years and hasn't found the right person yet. She can't stand those stupid rich second-generation guys, like Chen Wenhao, who used to pursue her.
But Ye Xingchen is different. He is his savior and a powerful figure. If Ye Xingchen becomes his brother-in-law, wouldn't he be able to do whatever he wants in Jinling?
"Uh, well... is it bad timing for me to come now? Why don't you guys continue, and just pretend you didn't see me?" Chen Wenhao said, quietly backing away, trying to salvage the situation.
"Ah..." Chen Qian finally realized what was happening and quickly let go of Ye Xingchen's hand, her face turning bright red.
She finally mustered up the courage to take the initiative, but she didn't expect to be caught red-handed at the crucial moment, which made the situation rather awkward.
"Um, it's okay, it's okay, you guys continue." Chen Wenhao awkwardly tried to back away.
"Just say what you want to say." Chen Qian composed herself. The emotions she had painstakingly built up had been interrupted. How could she continue now?
"Okay, I'll knock next time I come in." Chen Wenhao also looked regretful; this whole thing was quite embarrassing.
"Just say what you need to say," Chen Qian sighed helplessly.
"It's like this, sister, I need some money." Chen Wenhao said somewhat embarrassedly, "I was originally going to ask my mom for it, but she locks herself in the house every day now, so I don't dare to ask her."
"How much?" Chen Qian wasn't surprised. Yu Lu was currently going through a divorce, and her father had cut off all her credit cards.
She used to be a wealthy and extravagant housewife, but now she seems to have fallen on hard times. But she has no one to blame but herself. She gave up being a wealthy housewife, but who can she blame for ending up like this?
"Five hundred thousand." Chen Wenhao thought for a moment and then said this number.
"Five hundred thousand?" Chen Qian was taken aback. She had already transferred the money on her phone, but she put it down after hearing this. She calmed herself down and said, "Wenhao, I can give you the money, but you have to tell me what it's for."
"It's like this, sister. I have a female classmate... who's run into some trouble." Chen Wenhao explained, "She's currently lying in the hospital unconscious. Her family was originally quite well-off, but her father was under investigation for suspected job-related crimes, and their bank accounts were frozen."
"Are you telling the truth?" Chen Qian asked suspiciously. Chen Wenhao had used the same excuse to lie to her last time, but fortunately he had repented. Now he was using the same excuse to ask for money again, which made her somewhat unconvinced.
“I’m telling the truth, sister.” Chen Wenhao said with a mournful face, “I know I used this excuse to lie to you last time, but this time it’s true. That female classmate is a good person. She often goes to orphanages and nursing homes with her mother to do volunteer work.”
"Okay, how is she? Is it serious?" Chen Qian asked.
“The doctor said these next few days are critical. If she doesn’t wake up, she’ll most likely become a vegetable.” Chen Wenhao sighed. “She’s a really good person, and her father was also framed. I want to help her.”
"Take me to see," Ye Xingchen said. "Maybe I can help."
"Really? Ye Xingchen?" Chen Wenhao exclaimed with delight, "Then let's hurry up, she's in the hospital right now."
“Okay, I’ll go with you.” Ye Xingchen turned to look at Chen Qian: “Don’t worry, I’ll go see what’s going on first.”
"Okay... alright." Chen Qian blushed and dared not look Ye Xingchen in the eye. She was afraid that she would never be able to muster the emotions she had just been building up again.
"When did your classmate get into the car accident?" Ye Xingchen asked.
“Last Friday, about a week ago, she and her father went to the orphanage, and on their way back, they were hit by a large truck,” Chen Wenhao said.
"Which orphanage?" Ye Xingchen pressed, sensing that things were not so simple.
"It's that large community in the north of the city, a public welfare community that integrates elderly care and welfare facilities," Chen Wenhao said. "That place is quite big. My classmate, Liu Xiang, and I went there with her."
"The Liang family's Huimin Community?" Ye Xingchen finally found the key to the problem.
"Yes, you've heard of it?" Chen Wenhao asked.
"I've heard of them, the Liang family, the great philanthropists." Ye Xingchen's tone was somewhat sarcastic.
"Dog Ni's charity? The Liang family members are all hypocritical, but they're all cunning old devils in secret," Chen Wenhao snorted.
"Alright, let's not talk about this anymore." Ye Xingchen changed the subject. Chen Wenhao was still young and didn't understand some of the Liang family's practices. He was also afraid that if the kid knew too much, he might do something impulsive and cause trouble.
"You and your female classmate seem to have a good relationship."
"It's...it's alright." Chen Wenhao blushed and said awkwardly, "It's mainly because she's a really nice person, and we're good friends."
"The relationship is more than just being good, isn't it?" Ye Xingchen said meaningfully.
"What do you mean? We're just ordinary classmates." Chen Wenhao's face turned even redder. He was ashamed that others might see through his thoughts. "Besides, Liu Xiang gets along very well with most of the people in our class."
"Come on, you just like her," Ye Xingchen said. "Isn't she a good student?"
"Okay..." Chen Wenhao seemed a little embarrassed after Ye Xingchen hit the nail on the head: "First in the grade."
"What does your family do?" Ye Xingchen asked.
“Her father works in the community and is responsible for some liaison work in the Huimin Community in Liangjia, so she often goes there to do volunteer work,” Chen Wenhao said. “However, recently there have been rumors that her father embezzled charity funds, and he is currently under investigation.”
"Her father embezzled charity funds? According to you, she is kind-hearted. Do you think her father would do such a thing?" Ye Xingchen asked.
“No, this is a frame-up. Her parents are under investigation now, and only her grandfather is taking care of her in the hospital. Her grandfather is an elder of a large local clan. He is old, but he is an upright man, and he is trying to clear her parents’ name,” Chen Wenhao said.
"Alright, take me to the hospital to get checked out." Ye Xingchen nodded, he understood.
