Chapter 513 Since They Are Not Willing to Return, Let’s Go In
Zhuang Sheng got up from the ground, fearing that Xu Lin would blame Wu Hui, so he quickly took the responsibility on himself.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Xu, I really appreciate you, but I'm too poor now and can't come up with a decent thank you gift, that's why."
Zhuang Sheng smiled sheepishly and explained in a low voice, "A man's knees are covered with gold, that's only for the men from rich families.
For someone like me, the only thing left to do is to kowtow, apart from expressing my gratitude verbally. "
This was the truth, and Xu Lin felt embarrassed to blame him anymore.
It is true that the saying that a man's knees are gold does not apply to everyone. There are too many people in life who kneel down for a living.
It is rare that Zhuang Sheng does not kneel down for a living.
"You two should have a good talk. I'm going to go outside and take a look." Xu Lin said, patted Zhuang Sheng on the shoulder and walked out of the barrier.
Zhuang Sheng watched Xu Lin leave, then looked at Wu Hui and said, "You really met a good person."
"I think so too. If I hadn't met her, I don't know how many years I would have been suppressed.
If I hadn't met her, I might have been driven by hatred and turned into a murderer, and I would never have had the chance to come back to see you in this life."
Wu Hui looked in the direction where Xu Lin disappeared, his heart and eyes filled with gratitude.
What Wu Hui didn't say was that if she hadn't met Xu Lin, she might not have had the chance to practice cultivation, let alone the opportunity to achieve the status of a ghost immortal.
Although the chance is slim, it is still a chance.
Zhuang Sheng looked at his sister with heartache. His sister was such an outstanding person, it would have been great if she hadn't died.
My sister will surely achieve outstanding results in her field.
The brother and sister kept chatting in the alley until dark, as if they had endless things to say.
Xu Lin was afraid that Zhuang Sheng would get too hungry, so she entered the barrier and brought him a meal.
"Xiaosheng, remember what your sister said. Don't give up your studies. The college entrance examination will be resumed soon. You still have a chance to go to college."
"Sister, is this true?" Zhuang Sheng looked towards the entrance of the alley, "Did my benefactor say that?"
"Yes, the master has connections with many important people, so he is much more informed than others."
Wu Hui looked at Zhuang Sheng and said, "But the news hasn't been leaked yet, so you can't tell anyone. You just need to keep it in mind."
"I understand. I'm very tight-lipped and won't let anyone know and cause trouble for my benefactor."
Zhuang Sheng quickly expressed his opinion, staring at Wu Hui eagerly and asking, "Are you really not going home with me?"
"Me." Wu Hui showed a conflicted expression. She also missed her parents, but she didn't know how to face them.
When he thought about the suffering his family had suffered because of him, Wu Hui was even more afraid to go see his parents.
"I'd better wait." Wu Hui made a difficult decision and took out a stack of bills from his pocket and handed them to Zhuang Sheng.
"These are my gifts to my parents. Please keep them for them and buy them some nutritional supplements to replenish their bodies."
"No, I have a job and I can earn money to support them. You can keep these for yourself." Zhuang Sheng immediately refused.
Wu Hui gave a bitter smile. What did she need money for? Besides, her master didn't need any good things from her.
Wu Hui put his hands behind his back and shook his head, saying, "You keep it. I have no money to spend."
Zhuang Sheng froze there, and thinking of his sister's current status, his mood suddenly dropped.
After chatting with his sister for so long, he actually forgot the fact that his sister is no longer a human being.
"sister."
Seeing Zhuang Sheng's self-blaming expression, Wu Hui immediately interrupted him and comforted him.
They chatted like this for a while, and Wuhui then reluctantly urged Zhuang Sheng to go home quickly.
Fortunately, Zhuang Sheng did not tell his parents in advance about his return home, otherwise his parents would definitely worry if he was away from home for such a long time.
This time, Xu Lin came with a tricycle and asked Zhuang Sheng to put the bags on it.
Xu Lin originally wanted to ride a tricycle to take Zhuang Sheng home, but she didn't expect that Zhuang Sheng would take over this tiring job.
Xu Lin didn't force herself to do it and sat in the car very consciously.
This time, Zhuang Sheng found something wrong. Was the tricycle too fast?
Is this the speed of the human world?
Xu Lin walked Zhuang Sheng all the way to the door of his home. Looking at the shed built in the large courtyard, Xu Lin's brows furrowed.
Zhuang Sheng remained calm when he saw the shed, obviously he had known that his house had been robbed and his parents had to live in the shed.
Xu Lin turned her head to look at Wuhui again, and seeing Wuhui shedding tears of blood, she sighed.
"Don't worry, your house will be returned to you tomorrow afternoon.
If we cannot return the original house, we will certainly compensate you with a house of equal value.”
Xu Lin patted Zhuang Sheng on the shoulder and said, "As long as I am here, I will never let you live in this kind of environment."
"Thank you, benefactor. You have helped us enough. It doesn't matter if you don't return the house."
Zhuang Sheng lowered his head. He thought that everything was good now. No one beat him or scolded him. He had a job and could take good care of his parents.
"That won't do. What belongs to you is yours, and no one can take it away from you." Xu Lin shook her head. She couldn't let the Zhuang family suffer a loss.
Wu Hui is her follower, and Xu Lin would feel very embarrassed if Wu Hui's family suffered any loss.
Most of the time, Xu Lin is the type of person who helps her parents but does not help them.
Although he knew his parents were in the hut, Wu Hui did not have the courage to see them, and even ran away in tears.
Zhuang Sheng felt distressed when he saw this, but he was also helpless. He had no ability to keep his sister, and he couldn't even hold her hand.
"Okay, go in, I'll go see your sister."
After Xu Lin finished speaking, she rode away on her tricycle. She said, "We can't let Wuhui wander around in Kyoto, otherwise there will be problems."
Zhuang Sheng watched Xu Lin disappear before picking up his bags and heading towards the straw hut.
After catching up with Wu Hui, Xu Lin asked Wu Hui to enter the soul-nourishing talisman for recuperation. She then put away the tricycle, switched to a motorcycle and left.
Nothing happened that night. The next morning, Xu Lin made a phone call and found the relevant personnel to ask why the house had not been returned to the Zhuang family?
The staff member who was questioned felt his scalp tingling, and he stammered, not knowing how to explain. After hearing this, Xu Lin smiled and said calmly:
"Since they are unwilling to return it, then go in."
Where to go? The staff was confused. Before they could figure out what Xu Lin meant, Xu Lin had already hung up the phone.
The Zhuang family's house was self-built, with three main rooms, two side rooms and a kitchen, and there was also a well in the yard.
Food and accommodation are very convenient, which is incomparable to those large compound.
Their house is now occupied by the family of Mr. Zhu, the director of the machinery factory. They want them to return the house, but Mr. Zhu and his family are naturally unwilling to do so.
They even felt that they had given the Zhuang family face by giving Zhuang Sheng a job, and they would definitely not return the house.
If Director Zhu's family were more sensible and compensated the Zhuang family from other sources, Xu Lin would not be so angry.
