Since Yi Hexu was sent to S City by his mother, the Yan Group's projects have made no progress, which Yan Siming finds very strange.
He then called Lin Xiao to see if anything had happened to Yi Hexu.
"Hello, is this Lin Xiao? Is Yi Hexu here with you? He's not at the company right now."
Upon hearing that Yi Hexu had disappeared, Lin Xiao stood up in surprise: "Something's wrong, it must be his mother's doing."
"What mother of his? Don't you understand?"
"I had already thought of Yi Hexu's mother. She might have used some underhanded tricks to take him away or something. Now it seems to be the former."
"Don't tell Fang Qinyu about this yet. I'm afraid something might happen to that kid."
Yan Siming was still worried about what he might do, so he asked an extra question: "And what about you? What are you planning to do?"
"Yan Yiran and I will go find Yi Hexu first and see how he is doing."
The man was still dissatisfied, wondering why Lin Xiao was doing things with that man again.
"Why are you working with him again? Didn't I tell you to stay away from him? Aren't you afraid your boyfriend will get jealous?"
Lin Xiao lowered his head and chuckled softly, "Aren't you busy? If you don't have to worry about the Yan Group, then maybe I'll agree."
"You said it yourself, I can ignore it right now, you just wait!"
"Wait, I'm just kidding. What are you thinking? The Yan Group has millions of employees waiting for you to lead them. If something happens to you, I can't take the responsibility."
After a brief, subtle display of intimacy with the man, Lin Xiao took a taxi to Yi Hexu's city.
City S.
Lin Xiao followed the address and found that Yi Hexu was in that location, so he went over, knocked on the door, and called out.
"Hello, does Yi Hexu live here? I'm his friend. Do you have time to open the door?"
The person who opened the door was still Yi's mother, a middle-aged woman. Although he didn't like Lin Xiao very much, there was nothing he could do; he was just his friend.
"Why is it you again? Why are you like a ghost that won't leave us? Our family came all the way from over there, and you followed us here. Are you sick in the head?"
"Auntie asked us to explain that we came to see Senior Yi, to talk to him about something, really, we didn't intend to do anything."
Yi's mother gave a cold laugh and said sarcastically, "Oh, looking for my son? Sorry, I can't see him, he's busy!"
"Mom, who is it? Why won't you let them in? This is rude. Let me see who it is."
Yi Hexu heard Lin Xiao's deliberately loud voice and wondered who it was, which is why he insisted on opening the door.
"He's just a scrap collector."
Yi Hexu didn't believe it at all, so he pushed his mother away and, after seeing that it was Lin Xiao, invited him in.
"Lin Xiao, what brings you here? Come in. I'm sorry about earlier, my mom doesn't recognize you."
Lin Xiao nodded and said he was fine.
“I’m just here to see you on behalf of my friend. He said you suddenly disappeared and he was quite worried. He was afraid something might have happened to you, since that project is quite important.”
Lin Xiao deliberately exaggerated the matter, saying, "This project is quite large in scale and requires a lot of funding."
If one person is missing, it might not be completed. So, what's going on on your end?
Yi Hexu looked at his mother, then at his father, and he really didn't know how to start the conversation.
"If this project is completed, your commission and salary will double. That means the 1 million the president promised you will become 1.5 million."
Unable to bear the atmosphere any longer, Yi's father, displaying his masculine strength, loudly apologized to his son.
"I'm sorry, it's all my fault. If it weren't for me, you wouldn't be like this. It's all my fault!"
The middle-aged woman was very unhappy. Why should she apologize? Shouldn't her son be filial to her?
"You should save your breath. Even if your son has no money, you can't treat him like this. Besides, even if it weren't for this, you didn't handle another matter well either."
I think the child is fine too. It's just a difference in gender; why treat them like this?
Yi's mother was completely bewildered by her husband's outburst. Had someone spoken ill of her? Why was she being talked about like that?
"I did this for you, didn't I? Why are you saying this to me? I'm your wife."
"Come on, you two are doing this for me. Aren't you just after my inheritance? You know that if I die, you won't get a share of the inheritance."
But if I'm alive, there's a sliver of a chance to go back and divide the spoils, so I'll give you a lot more, right?
She was furious when someone pointed it out, and she yelled, "What nonsense are you talking about? I said it's for you, for your family matters. Who's in charge, me or you? Who's watching now?"
"Alright, stop arguing. You're all selfish and self-serving."
No one has ever considered me, not even when I came to this city; they never asked for my consent.
"And what's going on now? You've ruined this city and left it without money, and you're not happy about it now. You're not happy about it now that you have money. What exactly do you want?"
Regardless of whether anyone was present, Yi Hexu shouted at his mother, saying whatever came to mind.
Lin Xiao, who was sitting to the side, could hardly stand it anymore, so he took out a card and pushed it in front of Yi Hexu.
“Here is 800,000 yuan for your father’s medical treatment, but you have to come back to work, otherwise I won’t be able to explain it to you. Don’t look at me like that, just consider it a small token of my appreciation.”
Yi's mother had never seen so much money in real life, and her eyes lit up at the sight of it.
"Xiao Yi, how come your friend has so much money? He looks like he's just a wage earner."
"Lin Xiao, what do you mean by this? I don't need your help."
I can't take this money! If I do, I won't be Yi Hexu anymore. Mom, give the money back!"
"No way, this money is just enough for your dad's treatment, why should we pay it back? Besides, your classmate said it's free, so what's there to be afraid of?"
Lin Xiao frowned helplessly. This money was also from the store, so giving it to Yi Hexu was just a way of doing a good deed.
"You don't need to look at me like that. If you really feel bad about it, just consider this money as a loan from me."
"Use your actual work experience to tell me that you can do this project well and earn me an additional 1.5 million."
"You wouldn't refuse to give me this much face, would you? I've helped you a lot. Oh, and think about how he wants to talk to your parents."
"Alright, then I'll gladly accept your offer. I think I can give you a great result."
