Chapter 79: Rain and Dew
Daoist Sun lowered his sleeves and faced Sun Cai's pleading gaze, his face showing embarrassment: "This..."
"As the saying goes, public opinion is the most important. I wonder if you fellow villagers are willing to give Boss Sun a chance to mend his ways?" Hu Xiner knew that he had been shaken, but he could not openly show favoritism just for the sake of face.
So he took the initiative to speak to everyone.
Everyone thought that this was a best of both worlds as it not only punished Sun Cai but also complied with the law.
After all, the victim is still Boss Hu. If she is willing to settle the matter privately, then it doesn't matter.
Sun Cai is the only son in Daoyuan Sun's family, it would be a pity if he was harmed.
Although Daoyuan Sun usually favored his nephew, he was only using his nephew's influence to do business. The books were of poor quality, but he did not force his nephew to buy them.
Since he hasn't done anything evil that harms others, we should forgive him when we can!
In fact, most people don’t care about the quality of books, they just read them for fun.
In this way, the dispute was resolved, and Sun Cai was freed from the bench. He touched his intact buttocks with lingering fear.
Daoyuan Sun breathed a sigh of relief. Just as the people said, Sun was the only male in their entire family. If he was beaten, he was really afraid that he would be drowned by the saliva of the elders.
"Sun Cai, why don't you go and thank Boss Hu?" he said seriously.
Sun Cai looked at him aggrievedly, feeling that he had a miserable life.
His own uncle wanted to beat him to death, but in the end it was his mortal enemy who came to his rescue.
"Boss Hu, I'm sorry." He said shyly.
Hu Xin'er didn't make things difficult for him and said with a smile, "Harmony brings wealth."
The people loved this kind of happy ending the most, and they all praised it, saying, "Look at Boss Hu's vision. Even though she's a girl, she has such a broad mind!"
"If Sun Cai hadn't caused trouble, Mu Xin Comics Store would have had an excellent reputation."
"Boss Hu is a man who can accomplish great things!"
After leaving the court, Hu Xiner immediately signed an agreement with Sun Cai and became a major shareholder of Sun's Bookstore.
Sun Cai had escaped death and was relieved, but he was also worried because of this incident, fearing that Hu Xin'er would take the opportunity to take revenge.
But Hu Xin'er didn't deliberately squeeze Sun Cai. Instead, she smiled and said, "Boss Sun, don't worry. Now that I've invested in your bookstore, we're family. From now on, I'll sell my comics to you at the purchase price. Let's make money together!"
Sun Cai couldn't believe it: "You, you mean... I should be the boss of Sun's Bookstore?"
He thought he was going to be kicked out of the Sun Family Bookstore and was thinking about finding another way out.
After all, no matter which major shareholder, he would let someone who has a grudge against him be the boss!
Hu Xin'er blinked: "Of course, I've said it before, harmony brings wealth!"
Sun Cai was dizzy and holding the agreement, looking at it over and over again, and couldn't help but grinning foolishly.
Hehe, since I didn’t lose my property, my mother won’t scold me when I go home!
Taoist Sun, who was standing by, covered his face with his sleeves in embarrassment.
Boss Hu is a woman, yet she has such a dignified demeanor at such a young age, and what about her nephew? He is still a mama's boy.
This incident was full of twists and turns, even more exciting than what was written in the storybooks, and it soon spread throughout the streets and alleys.
Instead, the fame of Mu Xin Comics Store expanded, its reputation improved, and its business flourished.
Hu Xin'er returned to her busy life of settling accounts, but she would no longer be bothered by pirated books. Even if someone wanted to imitate Sun Cai and make trouble for them, they would have to consider whether they could withstand her revenge.
Unexpectedly, Sun Cai actually stepped into Mu Xin Comics Store and walked towards her with a smile on his face.
"What can I do for you, Boss Sun?" Hu Xiner tilted her head.
"I'm here to apologize to you." Sun Cai placed the gift on the counter and said solemnly, "Boss Hu, I'm sorry! In the past, because you were a woman, I looked down on you privately. And because you were trying to steal my business, I deliberately framed you. I hope that from now on, you will forgive me for my mistakes!"
Normally, he relied on his connections to look down on ordinary people, but now he lowered his attitude and apologized sincerely, which surprised the customers in the store.
"Is this still Sun Cai? He's like a completely different person!"
"Could it be that he really has returned as a prodigal son?"
"You trust this second-generation rich kid? Who knows what evil things he might be up to!"
"Could it be that he has taken a fancy to Shopkeeper Hu?"
Mu Xin Comics Shop is not big, so even the smallest discussions can clearly reach Sun Cai's ears.
His face flushed crimson, but he still spoke loudly, "You are right. I used to be a second-generation rich kid who bullied others by taking advantage of my power. But from today on, I realize that one can only make a living by relying on one's own true ability. I will definitely change my ways in the future!"
"Boss Sun is really impressive!" Hu Xiner was also a little stunned.
"I sincerely apologize to Boss Hu! My mother is very grateful to you and wants to invite you to our home. You must come!" Sun Cai took out a visiting card from his arms in a panic.
Being so serious, Hu Xiner felt embarrassed to refuse. After all, when doing business in the town in the future, she would inevitably have to interact with the Sun family.
Unable to refuse such a kind invitation, she had no choice but to agree to attend the banquet.
Soon the day of the banquet arrived. Before leaving, Hu Xin'er mysteriously took out a bundle and gave it to Mu Qing: "This is a gift for you, open it and take a look!"
Mu Qing opened the bundle with some surprise and found a brand new dress with exquisite workmanship and bamboo patterns embroidered on a white background, which was just right for attending the banquet today.
"Do you like it?" Hu Xiner asked expectantly.
"I like it very much. When did you make it?" Mu Qing couldn't help but smile.
"I'm glad you like it. Go and change it." Hu Xiner happily pushed him into the room.
Not long after, Mu Qing pushed the door open and came out. In order not to attract attention, he usually dressed very simply, but even so, he still attracted a lot of romantic debts.
Now wearing this elegant white robe, his handsomeness has reached a new level, like a handsome young man walking out of a costume drama.
Hu Xin'er couldn't take her eyes off it.
"Your saliva is about to fall." Mu Qing reminded.
Hu Xiner quickly wiped the corners of her mouth, but found that there was no saliva. She felt embarrassed and angry.
Looking at her cute appearance, Mu Qing was excited and put his arms around Hu Xiner's waist. Hu Xiner also closed her eyes nervously and shyly.
The two of them embraced and kissed passionately, lingering tenderly.
Suddenly there was a knock on the door: "Mr. Mu! Miss Hu! Are you ready? Let's go to the Sun family for dinner together!"
It’s Erdong!
Ever since he caught the two of them being intimate last time, he had learned his lesson and no longer climbed over the wall to enter the house, but knocked on the door properly.
The couple separated reluctantly, but when they opened the door, Mu Qing saw that Erdong was also wearing new clothes, and she was filled with jealousy.
Wow, Hu Xiner is really fair!
