After parting ways at the coffee shop, Qin Shengyi hitched a ride with Jiang Zhengyu.
"Looks like you've figured it out, little sister!"
Qin Shengyi smiled helplessly, "Yes, just like you said, if I keep running away, I'll only get trapped deeper and deeper!"
"That's good!" Jiang Zhengyu nodded. Thinking of the topic they had just discussed, he pondered for a moment before speaking again, "Shengyi, unless absolutely necessary, you'd better not have a direct conflict with the Xie family."
Unlike him, if Sheng Yi were to reveal his true identity, it could trigger a series of chain reactions.
"I can't just stand by and watch Brother Yanshu be suppressed by the Xie family forever, can I?"
Qin Shengyi retorted irritably, her delicate eyebrows furrowing slightly.
She knew what Zhengyu wanted to remind her of, but there were priorities, and she couldn't just let Yanshu be controlled by the Xie family.
The atmosphere froze for a moment, and Jiang Zhengyu couldn't help but sigh. Indeed, he shouldn't have said that.
Just as they arrived at the apartment building, Qin Shengyi spoke a few words before getting out of the car.
"Brother Zhengyu, I understand what you mean, I will be careful!"
Jiang Zhengyu paused for a moment, then nodded and said, "Yes, but don't be too hard on yourself. I'll be there for you if anything happens."
...
An uninvited guest is an unwelcome visitor. A week later, Xu Yanshu once again came to the low-rent house where the Lu family father and son lived.
"Here's 100,000 yuan. You can use it if you need it in an emergency!" Xu Yanshu sat down and took out a bank card, placing it on the coffee table.
Lu Huai, sitting in his wheelchair, scoffed at this and said coldly, "Xu Yanshu, it's not your place to give me charity!"
Lu Guangxiong glanced at the card on the table. Ten thousand yuan was no small sum for them now. After hesitating for a moment, he reached out and silently put the card away.
Such behavior inevitably made Lu Huai feel somewhat embarrassed. He coughed awkwardly twice, but didn't say anything more.
After all, they are currently short of money...
Why would Xu Yanshu suddenly be so kind, actually going out of his way to deliver cards to them like this?
Xu Yanshu silently observed the father and son's every move, a cryptic smile playing on his lips, a hint of disdain slowly creeping into his eyes.
If you're going to get beaten, you should stand up straight. Seeing that we've already fallen to this state, insisting on maintaining our integrity will only make us look more ridiculous.
"Actually, you don't need to be so polite with me. I recently invested in a property and made a small profit of six million, so I'm quite well-off."
Xu Yanshu spoke casually, then paused slightly before continuing, "If you need anything in the future, just let me know. If I'm in a good mood, I'll definitely help you. Uncle, please don't do anything that will harm your health."
He deliberately emphasized the words "harm the body".
The faces of Lu Guangxiong and his son immediately turned ashen. They had clearly agreed on the terms during the transaction, but unexpectedly, Xu Yanshu found out about it in the blink of an eye.
"Uncle, aren't you curious about what properties I've invested in?" Xu Yanshu asked, raising an eyebrow with interest.
Having just been subtly criticized, Lu Guangxiong's expression was naturally not good, and the cards in his pocket suddenly seemed like hot potatoes.
He was still indignant when he was suddenly asked the question. After a moment of stunned silence, he blurted out something involuntarily.
"Ah, this..."
"I learned by chance that the Lu Mansion was for sale, so I asked a friend to buy it for me. But I didn't have any use for it, so I sold it. The difference in price was exactly six million!"
I thought I would soon see Xie Huanyu and the Lu family father and son in court, but to my surprise, nothing happened for a long time. After a little investigation, I found out what was going on.
He had always felt it necessary to let the father and son know that the Lu Mansion had been passed down through his hands, but he had never found a suitable opportunity.
Lu Guangxiong suddenly stood up and angrily cursed, "You despicable scoundrel!"
If it weren't for the need to repay Xie Huanyu as soon as possible, he wouldn't have sold the Lu Mansion at such a low price. Unexpectedly, Xu Yanshu ended up getting a great deal for nothing.
Thinking back to the scene where Xie Huanyu spoke up for Xu Yanshu that day, Lu Guangxiong couldn't help but start to suspect that the couple had deliberately conspired to frame them!
"I already gave you 100,000 yuan, why are you still cursing at me?"
Lu Huai gritted his teeth in anger, reaching for his bank card to throw at the other person, but Lu Guangxiong grabbed his hand at the last moment.
"This money is rightfully ours, why should we give it back to him? If this continues, your medical expenses will become a problem!"
Or they should just make Xu Yanshu return all the remaining five million to them!
The thought of selling himself to pay off his debts fueled the burning anger in Lu Guangxiong's eyes.
Upon hearing this, Xu Yanshu almost burst out laughing, his narrow eyes flashing with even more mockery.
No wonder people say that fortunes change every thirty years. Just a few days ago, Lu Guangxiong came to me with a check for one million yuan to negotiate terms, but in the blink of an eye, I've reached a point where I can hardly survive.
Caught between a rock and a hard place, Lu Huai's face turned pale and then red, so embarrassed that he wanted to crawl into a hole.
She used to look down on Xu Yanshu the most, but she never expected that she would have to rely on his charity to survive in the end.
"Take care, both of you. If there's nothing else, I'll be leaving now." Xu Yanshu stood up from his seat on his own.
Staring intently at Xu Yanshu's departing figure, a strong killing intent flashed in Lu Huai's eyes, and his hands involuntarily gripped the handrail tightly.
Since I'm already in this state, if I can drag Xu Yanshu down to hell with me, it won't be too much of a loss.
"Ah Huai, don't be angry. I won't give up anything that's rightfully ours. I'll go find him and pay him back another day..."
"Enough! Aren't you embarrassed enough already?!" Before he could finish speaking, Lu Huai grabbed the cup next to him and smashed it on the ground, scolding him angrily, "Why should someone pay you back money they earned through their own abilities?"
Lu Guangxiong's face immediately turned ashen. Ever since the incident, Ah Huai's temper had gotten worse and worse, and he would often lose his temper with him, to the point that sometimes it was hard to tell who was the father.
"Then what do you suggest we do? If you hadn't acted impulsively, would we have ended up like this?"
"Lu Huai, you'd better stop now. I don't have the patience to let you have your way!"
After saying these words, Lu Guangxiong stormed out of the house.
