Chapter 294 He was truly blind back then; how could he mistake elm wood for pearl?



Li Fang stepped out of her mother's arms and smiled, saying, "Mom, I'm fine now."

She guessed that her parents might come from Northeast China in the next few days, so she would come over here from time to time to check on them.

She was worried they wouldn't be able to find her, but she actually did run into them today.

Yuan Shuo looked his daughter up and down and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that she didn't have the kind of red rash they had described.

Li Fang led the two of them to the guesthouse where she was staying.

As soon as Li Qin entered, she eagerly asked, "What's going on between you and Deng Fangyuan? What did he say about you having some gynecological disease that led to your breakup? Tell Mom properly, is it Su Jiaojiao who deliberately sabotaged things?"

Li Fang briefly explained what had happened to them.

When their daughter told them that the doctor at the hospital said it couldn't be cured, both of them were on tenterhooks.

"Mom and Dad, but you don't need to worry anymore, I'm completely healed now."

The two breathed a sigh of relief. Curious, they asked, "How did you cure your illness?"

Li Fang exclaimed excitedly, "It's fruit from Su Li's supermarket!"

"What?"

"What?"

The two said incredulously.

“Mom and Dad, I’m telling you the truth. Deng Fangyuan took all my money. That day I had nowhere to go, so I went to Su Li’s supermarket. Her clerk took pity on me and gave me an apple. After I finished the apple, I noticed that my rash had subsided a bit.”

"The next day, Aunt Chen, who always appeared with Su Li, had a shop assistant give me twenty yuan so I could have a place to stay. Otherwise, I'd still be squatting in the corner of the supermarket right now."

The couple was heartbroken to hear this. When had their daughter ever suffered like this? They shouldn't have been so soft-hearted and listened to her, letting her get engaged to Deng Fangyuan.

Li Fang continued, "Later, I used that twenty yuan to buy fruit again, and my condition improved significantly. A couple of days ago, when I went back, Aunt Chen gave me all the last few pieces of fruit. After eating them, I was completely healed. If it weren't for Su Li's supermarket, you might never have seen me again."

After hearing this, Yuan Shuo sighed inwardly, feeling even more sorry for Su Li.

He was truly blind back then; how could he mistake elm wood for pearls?

But now that even someone as slow-witted as her daughter has discovered the wonderful uses of this fruit, I suppose smart people must know it too.

He still needed to remind Su Li where this fruit came from, lest she be targeted by someone.

Yuan Shuo left after seeing Su Li get married last time, and he doesn't know how she's doing now.

“Daughter, let’s rest here tonight and go find Deng Fangyuan tomorrow to get your two hundred yuan and tuition back.”

"Mom and Dad, maybe we should just let it go! He said he's spent all the money, and even if we go to him, we probably won't get it back," Li Fang said sadly.

Li Qin said unwillingly, "Are we just going to let him get away with this? I'm not willing to accept it. Here's what we'll do: you stay here tomorrow, and your parents will go and ask for it ourselves. If he doesn't give it to us, we'll make a scene at his school. He only got into university because our family is sponsoring him. If we have to make a scene, we'll make sure he can't go to university."

Yuan Shuo nodded in agreement: "We really can't let him off so easily. You came all this way for him, and he just happens to be messing around with Su Jiaojiao."

These two together are really disgusting.

The next morning, the couple did not wake Li Fang.

They waited for Deng Fangyuan to come out at the gate of Beijing University, and they waited for him all morning.

As soon as he came out, Li Qin shouted at Deng Fangyuan, "Deng Fangyuan, you heartless bastard, give us back my daughter's two hundred yuan!"

Deng Fangyuan thought that once they left yesterday, the matter would be over, but he didn't expect them to come to the school.

Hearing Li Qin's words, several classmates, seeing that there was something to watch, stopped in their tracks.

They all stopped.

Seeing the students gathered around, Deng Fangyuan quickly walked up to Yuan Shuo and Li Qin, saying, "Auntie, Uncle, can we talk in front of us? We don't want to disturb the other students."

Li Qin wasn't buying it; "We're all good citizens, what can't we say in front of everyone? Today I just want to ask when you're going to pay back the tuition fees you borrowed from us, and the two hundred yuan you took from my daughter a few days ago?"

Several of Deng Fangyuan's classmates knew that he was usually quite frugal.

But I never expected that even his tuition fees were borrowed from others. Since someone helped him borrow the tuition fees, why did he ask for the two hundred yuan from that person's daughter?

They were truly greedy and couldn't keep their eyes off Deng Fangyuan. Suddenly, the way they looked at him changed.

“Auntie, Uncle, I know you are very sad that I separated from your daughter, so you deliberately came here to ruin my reputation.”

As he spoke, Deng Fangyuan looked sadly at Yuan Shuo and Li Qin, "Auntie, I know you've helped me a lot before, but I also agreed to date your daughter. It's just that while she was dating me, she had affairs with other men and women and even contracted a sexually transmitted disease. I really can't accept that."

The naive classmates were immediately swayed by his words; "So that's why they said that on purpose, because the girl broke up with him. I think it's despicable of them to ruin someone's reputation like that!"

"The problem is that his daughter has contracted that kind of venereal disease, and yet these people still have the nerve to ask Deng for money. I think they're obsessed with money. If you ask me, they're truly vicious; they just don't want people to go to university."
