Hearing Wu Yu's threatening words, Liu Guangqi knew he was unwilling to marry Wu Yu's sister. Although some things had happened before, it was just a momentary impulse.
But if he were to divorce his current wife, it would be a huge problem, as his father-in-law was not someone to be trifled with.
If they later try to pin some kind of label on me, I probably won't even be able to keep my job.
Are we supposed to starve with the kids? If that were the case, Liu Guangqi felt he would have no face to stay in the compound.
Therefore, Liu Guangqi did not even consider Wu Yu's words. This was a dead end, a dead end that he absolutely could not choose.
"Alright, you don't need to tell me any more of this!"
"I know what's going on with you. Now that I've promised you, I will definitely do it!"
Do you think I'm like you?
Liu Guangqi confidently told Wu Yu that although he couldn't come up with that much money right now.
However, Liu Guangqi felt that he would eventually give the money to Wu Yu.
After hearing Liu Guangqi's words, Wu Yu thought about it carefully and decided to let Liu Guangqi off the hook.
He also felt that the money might be a bit of a burden for Liu Guangqi, but in any case, Liu Guangqi's job was there.
In addition, Liu Haizhong also has a job, so with two people in the family earning money, they will probably be able to raise their own money very soon.
However, Wu Yu overlooked one thing: Liu Haizhong's hair was actually just a shiny donkey dung ball.
Now, the situation is more like spending more than earning, and the family is barely making ends meet.
In comparison, Liu Guangqi wasn't much better off. When Liu Guangqi married his wife, it was practically the same as him marrying into her family.
More importantly, Liu Guangqi has no control over the money in his pocket and most of the time he has to listen to his wife.
"Okay, I'll trust you this once!"
"So what do we do now? Should we go back to Xu Damao? I don't think Xu Damao will give us the money!"
Wu Yu watched Xu Damao's departing figure from afar and said with some resentment.
If Wu Yu hadn't been beaten up yesterday and was still feeling unwell, she would definitely have rushed up and given Xu Damao a good fight.
Liu Guangqi heard Wu Yu asking about Xu Damao's 500 yuan.
Thinking of Xu Damao's attitude, Liu Guangqi sighed helplessly.
"Why!"
Let's leave it at that for now!
"Let's not look for Xu Damao anymore. I don't think we can get the money out of him even if we keep looking!"
"Let's go home and ask my dad to think of a solution!"
Liu Guangqi muttered a couple of things, feeling that he should discuss this matter with Liu Haizhong.
However, it's impossible to say that Liu Guangqi simply accepted being tricked by Xu Damao.
After all, the money swindled by Xu Damao was not a small amount, and the most crucial point was that this money was borrowed from other families in the compound.
"Then let's go back!"
Wu Yu has now figured it out: regardless of whether Xu Damao can get his money back, she definitely can't lose her own money.
So once he figured it out, he became somewhat indifferent to whether Liu Guangqi could get money from Xu Damao.
"Let's go back!"
Compared to Wu Yu's relaxed state, Liu Guangqi felt somewhat melancholy.
Regardless, the fact that this matter was not resolved was still somewhat difficult for Liu Guangqi to accept.
Wu Yu and I traveled all that way to the countryside for so long, only to end up with absolutely nothing.
"Let's go back, let's go back!"
Liu Guangqi sighed sadly.
………………
When they returned to the compound, Aunt Erda felt very sorry for Liu Guangqi when she saw him looking so travel-worn.
"Oh my goodness, my precious son, you've gotten so thin!"
It's normal for Liu Guangqi to lose weight because he was exposed to the elements every day while working in the countryside, and he didn't eat or sleep well.
When the second aunt saw Liu Guangqi like this, she felt extremely distressed.
So they quickly prepared a sumptuous meal for Liu Guangqi.
It wasn't until Liu Guangqi started eating that his second aunt had time to ask him questions.
"Guangqi, how's your business going?" Auntie Er asked.
Liu Guangqi's face instantly darkened, and he shook his head, saying, "This is bad. Although we found that bastard Xu Damao, that bastard won't admit it!"
"After arguing with him for a while, we came back!"
"I'm thinking of coming back and discussing it with my dad to see how to deal with Xu Damao!"
Upon hearing Liu Guangqi's words, Aunt Er nodded and replied, "I knew this matter wouldn't be so easy to accomplish!"
"The money's all in Xu Damao's pocket, it's not so easy to get it back!"
"It's alright, don't worry. You can discuss this with your father!"
The second aunt earnestly comforted Liu Guangqi.
"I see!"
Liu Guangqi nodded, said nothing more, and continued eating.
As for Wu Yu, who was eating alongside them, Aunt Er didn't even acknowledge her.
If it weren't for Wu Yu, our family wouldn't have suffered this unexpected disaster; we were already struggling to make ends meet.
Now, because of Wu Yu, the family has been swindled out of so much money again, which is really making the second aunt feel extremely upset.
If she hadn't known in her heart that Wu Yu had something on her precious son, she would have kicked Wu Yu out of the house long ago.
Even so, Aunt Liu Er wouldn't give Wu Yu a friendly look, and would even simply ignore her.
Wu Yu didn't care how his second aunt treated him. He was shameless by nature, and he would only find it strange if his second aunt was enthusiastic towards him.
Before the two of them could even put down their bowls and chopsticks, Liu Haizhong rushed back from outside.
After hearing Liu Guangqi's words about Xu Damao, Liu Haizhong angrily slammed his fist on the table.
"Bang!"
"That little beast Xu Damao!"
"It seems I have to handle this personally! I must teach him a lesson!"
After seeing Liu Guangqi and Wu Yu return empty-handed, Liu Haizhong could no longer suppress his anger.
"Father, what do you plan to do?"
Seeing Liu Haizhong's angry expression, Liu Guangqi asked him what was wrong.
"How do we do it?"
"I'll make sure he can't stay in this compound any longer!"
"I refuse to believe he can stay away from the compound forever. Once he's back, I'll make sure everyone in the compound sees his true colors!"
Liu Haizhong spoke with great conviction.
Will this work?
Liu Guangqi was unsure whether the deal would work out.
"Don't worry! Even if it doesn't work out, I'll still teach him a lesson!"
Liu Haizhong made up his mind to have a proper showdown with Xu Damao.
