When he went in, Wen Cheng had just pulled out a bank card.
Seeing him go inside, Wen Cheng instinctively asked, "Hey, how do I link this bank card? It says I can only withdraw money to the bank card after linking it. And the maximum withdrawal per day is 20,000 yuan. Will there be any problems if I keep all this money on my phone?"
However, Wen Cheng quickly realized: "Forget it, it's pointless to ask you. You're someone who doesn't even know how to use mobile payment. Tsk, if my old card hadn't been frozen, I wouldn't have needed to dig out this one."
Third Brother Wen Chengcai was immersed in the joy of receiving the money, talking to himself, and then let out a deep sigh.
"Now that you've received the money, can we have a proper talk?"
"What are we talking about?" Wen Cheng glanced at his third brother. "You want to talk about your high principles, don't you? I know what you're going to say, but didn't I tell you I know my limits? Look at me, I didn't ask for more in the end. I'm already very satisfied with 100,000 yuan. After all, I only make less than 2,000 yuan a month looking after the factory, which is just over 20,000 yuan a year. That's enough for me to look after the factory for ten years. I'm not greedy."
Third Brother's tone was very serious: "You mean you're not greedy? You're asking someone else for 200,000 and they didn't give it to you."
"What's the difference? In the end, I only got this 100,000. Do you want it or not? Or I can share half with you."
"I don't want to. You need to be serious about becoming a talent. Your behavior almost constitutes extortion."
"I know, but I really know what I'm doing. I promise you, I promise I will never do anything like this again, even if it's just to take advantage of someone's kindness."
"Using kindness to repay favors."
"Yes, yes, that's exactly what I meant. By the way, now that I have a little money, I'm planning to go back to my hometown to visit my mother and buy her some good food and supplements. Do you want to come back with me and see your mom too?"
Third Brother shook his head: "I'm not going back. I don't want to scare them."
"Okay, then I'll go back for a bit. You can look after the factory yourself for the next few days. Call me if anything happens."
"Okay, give my regards to your mother. By the way, you're not going to contact them again, are you?"
"Hey, Third Brother! That young man didn't believe me, but you don't believe me either? I don't have that young man's contact information at all, and he deleted that female celebrity's phone number. I can't contact him even if I want to."
"Then I'm going back to the greenhouse."
"Go ahead, I'll call you when the food is ready."
However, as soon as his third brother walked away, Wen Cheng closed the door.
After confirming that his third brother had not suddenly returned, Wen Cheng once again secretly took out his third brother's treasure box and stuffed all the contents into his backpack.
After doing all that, he prepared lunch as usual and then called his third brother to come back and eat together.
It wasn't until the next morning that Wen Chengcai left the park and boarded a bus back to his hometown.

Filming for "The Palace Wall Lock" finally wrapped up two days later.
On the day her work ended, Wen Yan returned to the Shen family villa accompanied by two bodyguards.
She had just arrived home when Shen Jingchuan also returned.
The two started talking about Wen Chengcai as soon as they met.
Shen Jingchuan was still somewhat worried: "That person hasn't contacted you again since, has he?"
"Don't worry, I'm very obedient. After receiving your message that day, I not only deleted his number but also blacklisted him. That way, neither of us can contact each other."
Shen Jingchuan immediately gave Wen Yan a thumbs up: "Luckily, you don't have that stubborn streak in your personality. What are your plans after filming wraps up? Do you want me to take you abroad for a few days?"
"Um... let's postpone it. Although I know this doesn't make sense, I'm a little wary of traveling with you right now. Besides, you're probably going abroad for work, right?"
"You were right."
"I'm not going. You're going to work, you can't really spend time with me. I plan to rest at home for a few days first, and then I'll start arranging my work."
"I didn't realize you were such a workaholic!"
"That's because I really enjoy my current job! I plan to choose a different type of script and experience a completely new role and life."
Shen Jingchuan nodded: "That's good. If your job makes you happy, then it's a great job. If you really don't want to go, then I'll leave. I need to pack up and I'll leave tonight."
"Go on your journey, have a safe trip!"
After Shen Jingchuan left, Wen Yan immediately went upstairs to catch up on her sleep.
When she woke up, it was already dark outside.
It was only because Aunt Zhang came to call her for dinner that she was woken up; otherwise, she wouldn't know how long she would have slept.
When she arrived at the restaurant, the food was already laid out.
At this moment, looking around the huge mansion, there were only her and Aunt Zhang, making it seem particularly desolate.
Noticing the disappointment on her face, Aunt Zhang spoke up:
“During the time your husband and wife are away, your older brother actually comes home every night no matter how busy he is. But today he must be working overtime, so he didn’t come home for dinner. If it were earlier, he could probably get home before ten o’clock.”
What about that night?
“One time he came back at almost midnight. But it was the weekend, so he got up later than usual the next day because he came back late.”
Wen Yan nodded.
She knew that Shen Jingxiu's heart was not as cold as he appeared on the outside.
