"Uncle Cai, I didn't say anything. I didn't mention you or Mr. Zhao. You have to believe me!"
When Shu Lu saw Cai Youlun, she was like a drowning man grabbing a life-saving piece of driftwood, and she hurriedly defended herself.
She hadn't lied this time. She hadn't mentioned Cai Youlun or Zhao Dong's names at the police station. Of course, she wouldn't tell Cai Youlun that, just today, for a moment, she'd considered selling out Zhao Dong in exchange for Wen Ying's "forgiveness" and Xie Qian's protection. If Wen Ying or Xie Qian had paid any attention to her, she definitely wouldn't have stood in front of Cai Youlun. That would have been a different path... Right now, in front of Cai Youlun, Shu Lu would never admit that she'd wavered.
Cai Youlun no longer had the kindness he once had. He looked Shulu over from head to toe and snorted coldly, "You'd better not say anything nonsense, otherwise you won't be able to bear the consequences. You accepted so many things, but failed to accomplish what you did for Mr. Zhao. I bet you don't want to try Mr. Zhao's methods of discipline!"
Shu Lu shuddered and pitifully grabbed the car window and begged Cai Youlun.
"Uncle Cai, the school wants me to transfer. Can you help me? I haven't finished Mr. Zhao's matter yet. If I go to another school, how can I fulfill Mr. Zhao's instructions..."
The man is a waste, yet he has many demands.
Cai Youlun didn't have time to talk to Shulu any more. After confirming that Shulu had simply put the blame on Shu Guobing and hadn't done anything to Xiao Cai, Cai Youlun said impatiently, "Then transfer schools. You and your daughter have caused Mr. Zhao so much trouble. Mr. Zhao also needs to think about what to do next. Just wait patiently for Mr. Zhao's notification!"
The car started and Shu Lu ran a few steps behind it, panting with exhaustion.
Waiting for notification?
How did she and her mother live during this period?
Shu Lu wanted to cry but had no tears, but at least there was still a glimmer of hope that prevented her from collapsing immediately.
When Shu Lu returned home, Wen Hongyan was already cursing and rummaging through the drawers.
Wen Hongyan found several paper bags in Shulu's room, all of which were brand-name bags that Shulu had not had time to carry.
"These things are good-looking but useless. Can they be exchanged for money?"
It should be possible.
But Shulu didn't know where to change it.
These bags, beautiful clothes, and exquisite leather shoes are the life that Shulu longs for. If she sells the bags, everything Shulu once had briefly possessed will be in vain. She must always leave something for herself. No matter how Wen Hongyan nags, Shulu says nothing.
Wen Hongyan asked her if she still wanted to study, and Shu Lu nodded: "Mom, only if I study can our family turn things around. If I don't study now, we'll be finished."
Guessing Wen Hongyan's psychology, Shu Lu added:
"If my dad goes to jail and I don't go to college, the gap between our family and my second uncle's family will become wider and wider. I don't know how my second aunt will laugh at you, and Wen Ying—"
Wen Hongyan couldn't bear to think about that scene.
For so many years, Wen Hongyan has been jealous of Chen Ru. She finally had the chance to show off in front of Chen Ru a few times, but now she will never be able to turn things around and will have to live under Chen Ru's shadow for the rest of her life. This is too painful for Wen Hongyan.
"No, you can't let your dad go to jail. You still have to study!"
Wen Hongyan moved several paper bags to her room, and took out the gold jewelry she had bought before, saying that she wanted to sell them.
Today's experience gave Wen Hongyan a great shock. With Shu Guobing around, she was the boss lady. Without Shu Guobing, the employees of both stores ignored her.
The good days that Shu Lu promised will take many years to come, and the most important person to seize now is Shu Guobing.
Shu Lu felt guilty and stammered that her father was difficult to save. Wen Hongyan refused to listen: "Those officials are greedy for money. As long as they are willing to accept the money, your father's problems are nothing!"
No way!
If it were that simple, Cai Youlun wouldn't be so angry today.
Xiao Cai was just an errand boy. Cai Youlun couldn't even get the person out. Just because her mother gave some money, the police station released the person?
Shu Lu was very suspicious that Wen Hongyan didn't even know where to send the money!
Wen Hongyan usually listens to Shu Lu's advice, but this time she is very stubborn. No matter what Shu Lu says, Wen Hongyan wants to save Shu Guobing.
Wen Hongyan is a woman who is very dependent on men. Even though Shu Guobing used to be an alcoholic, a braggart and not doing his job, he was still a support in Wen Hongyan's heart. No matter how bad a man is, she needs a man. Without a man's support, others will bully the widow and the orphan.
Wen Hongyan has been in the city for so many years, but her thinking has not kept up with the times and she still holds the same rural ideas.
Not to mention that Shu Guobing also had his moments of glory!
If there is a boss named Cai who appreciates Shu Guobing, other bosses will also take a fancy to Shu Guobing. Even if he doesn't work for Boss Cai anymore, he has been a manager after all, so it won't be difficult for him to find a high-paying job!
Wen Hongyan presented her own theory to Shulu, which confused her.
Too many things happened today. Shu Lu was just a junior high school girl. She was smart but not knowledgeable. She couldn't think of a better reason to stop Wen Hongyan.
Shulu only came to her senses the next day.
Others may not know how her father Shu Guobing was promoted by a noble person, but she knows it very well!
It’s not easy to be a manager!
When Shu Lu wanted to stop her, Wen Hongyan had already left with the things. Shu Lu called Wen Hongyan but she didn't answer. In the evening, Wen Hongyan came home empty-handed and said that the money had already been given.
"Mom, who did you give the money to?"
"Shh, keep your voice down. It's just someone from our neighborhood, a relative of the Public Security Bureau leader."
The Public Security Bureau can manage the police stations. Once the leader gives the order, will the police stations dare not release the person?
Shu Lu was skeptical, but Wen Hongyan was particularly confident. She said that the other party took her to the Public Security Bureau, entered through the back door, and went to the office building, where she talked to a man who looked like a leader. Wen Hongyan was afraid of being cheated, so she stopped the person from the Public Security Bureau and asked about his identity.
