Sun Xiangdong frowned. He was a grown man, and he was standing at the factory gate.
Lin Caifeng's crying and aggrieved expression left him somewhat at a loss.
He really wanted to kick Lin Caifeng out, but with people coming and going at the factory gate, it seemed a bit heartless to just chase her away.
However, he didn't want someone like Lin Caifeng to influence Fu Linchuan.
Just as he was struggling with this decision, Fu Linchuan's car pulled up directly in front of the factory.
He rolled down the car window and stuck his head out.
What are you two doing?
Sun Xiangdong felt like he had seen a savior. He stopped calling Da Chuan and shouted, "Boss, you've finally arrived!"
Fu Linchuan looked at Lin Caifeng and saw that she was dressed in tattered clothes with many patches, and her hair was messy, making her look particularly pitiful.
"What are you doing here? You're not welcome here."
Lin Caifeng looked at Fu Linchuan pitifully, tears streaming down her face. "Brother, I beg you, I don't know where I can go. Sun Jiancheng, he's with another woman again. I have nowhere to go and no food to eat. I've worked for him for so long, and he hasn't paid me. I haven't eaten for two days."
"Brother, I really don't know anyone in Kyoto. Please, brother, just give me a meal, I promise I won't bother you. I just want a meal, and then I'll go find a job."
Fu Linchuan said calmly, "Lin Caifeng, remember this: there is no brother here. I am no longer your brother. I have nothing to do with you."
Lin Caifeng gave a bitter smile and wiped away her tears. "I...I know. Mr. Fu, I'll understand from now on."
Fu Linchuan thought for a moment, then said, "Get in the car."
Lin Caifeng was secretly delighted; men can't stand seeing women in a pitiful state.
"Mr. Fu, are you talking to me?"
"Fine, then don't bother," Fu Linchuan said, turning to close the car window and drive away.
Lin Caifeng immediately ran to the front of the car, "I'll get on, I'll get on."
Sun Xiangdong felt somewhat annoyed, blaming himself for not chasing Lin Caifeng away before Fu Linchuan arrived.
This only caused trouble for Fu Linchuan.
Fu Linchuan remained silent throughout the journey.
Lin Caifeng wiped away her tears; her eyes were red and swollen.
She sighed inwardly, thinking that Fu Linchuan was studying in Kyoto, owned a factory, and even had a car.
What an amazing life!
Fu Linchuan drove directly to the front of Sun Jiancheng's barbershop.
He parked the car, got out, and opened the car door for Lin Caifeng.
"Brother... Mr. Fu, why did you bring me here?"
Fu Linchuan put his arm on the car door and said, "I'm here to ask when you two broke up, and also to ask why Sun Jiancheng didn't pay you your wages."
Lin Caifeng: ...
She suddenly became a little nervous.
"You're not getting out of the car?" Fu Linchuan raised an eyebrow. "So you're just pretending to be pitiful to gain my sympathy."
"Lin Caifeng, don't overdo the acting. There's only hatred between us, no affection! Do you think nothing of what happened before?"
Lin Caifeng had no choice but to get off the bus.
"Boss Fu, I... I really didn't lie to you. I know that my parents were wrong in the past, and I really just wanted to make a living, really."
Fu Linchuan closed the car door and strode into the barbershop.
There were no customers in the barbershop at the moment, and Sun Jiancheng hadn't realized that Fu Linchuan had arrived yet. He immediately ran over to greet him, "Would you like a haircut?"
When he saw that it was Fu Linchuan, he became very excited.
Looking at Lin Caifeng again, he said directly, "Caifeng, you invited your brother? Why didn't you say so earlier? Please come in, please come in."
Fu Linchuan looked at Lin Caifeng, "Is there anything else you want to explain?"
Lin Caifeng cursed Sun Jiancheng in her heart for being stupid.
“Sun Jiancheng, you shameless person! You fawn over Boss Fu whenever you see him. Have you forgotten how you argued with me? You saw Boss Fu come and started hitting and cursing me in front of you, and even kicked me out of the store, didn’t that happen?”
Sun Jiancheng seemed to understand something at once, and he frowned as well. "Lin Caifeng, can you stop making a scene? I'm not trying to kick you out. You were the one who wanted to run away. Now that you're back, what are you doing?"
Fu Linchuan watched the two of them put on an act, and he curled the corners of his mouth. "Since that's the case, you two have made up. Miss Caifeng, you won't be homeless anymore, and you'll have food to eat. I'm leaving now."
“Sun Jiancheng, right? Remember, I don’t know her, and I’m not her brother. If we’re talking about who we know, then we can only be considered enemies.”
"Miss Caifeng, you'd better not appear in front of me again."
After saying that, Fu Linchuan strode away, giving Lin Caifeng no chance to speak again.
Watching Fu Linchuan's car drive away, Lin Caifeng stomped her foot.
"Sun Jiancheng, you're such an idiot!"
Sun Jiancheng was still somewhat confused. "Wasn't my cooperation good enough? You didn't even tell me beforehand! Besides, why are you enemies?"
"That's none of your business!"
Fu Linchuan returned to the factory, and Sun Xiangdong rushed over.
"Da Chuan, how is it?"
Fu Linchuan let out a sigh of relief. "I sent her back to the barbershop, but it's really not a good situation. There's really nothing I can do to her. If she insists on pestering me, to be honest, I haven't thought of a better way to deal with this."
"Forget about that for now," Fu Linchuan said. "We'll deal with whatever comes our way. There's no need to worry about Lin Caifeng alone. Have you got your train ticket and everything sorted out for Lihe Town?"
When asked about work, Sun Xiangdong said, "Don't worry, everything's taken care of. You're so busy, of course we can't hold you back."
Sun Xiangdong went there this time to sign a contract with Chen Dafa.
The procedures have already begun to be processed over there.
Fu Linchuan plans to lease a forest in the mountains of Lihe Town this winter.
He's been looking at the forest he's leased these days, and he plans to transport the timber by train to all parts of the country.
He can save on timber costs at his own factory and sell some of it, so he can make a considerable profit.
Fu Linchuan couldn't help but sigh that the 1980s and early 1990s were truly good times to do business.
It was much easier than later, and the people were much more sincere.
Chen Dafa is a local, and he is indeed very capable and knows many people.
In addition, they also made some acquaintances during their trips to Kyoto to transport timber.
This business is not difficult to start.
On the other side, Yu Kaixing held several photos in his hand.
"It's this woman, her name is Lin Caifeng. She's been appearing in front of Haichuan Furniture Factory these past few days, waiting for Fu Linchuan."
"I made some inquiries, and this woman is from Yuquan Village, Wangshan County, Xuancheng. She said that Fu Linchuan was her brother in the past, but Fu Linchuan clearly doesn't want to acknowledge this sister. There seems to be a conflict between them, a big grudge. As for what the grudge is, I haven't found out yet."
Yu Kaixing stared at the photo for a long time. If he could really find someone who had a grudge against Fu Linchuan, then he might still be able to use them.
