Liu Ye and Xiao Weiguo, a married couple, came together to the group's internal guesthouse.
The place where Shangguan Qixue's parents lived.
During this period, the couple has been living a relatively comfortable life under the care of the two employees at the company.
Their daughter's departure left them devastated, shattering all their hopes.
They persevered in their lives because they wanted to fulfill their daughter's wish.
They had no idea that it was a wish that was impossible to fulfill.
Luck brought them to Liu Ye, making the impossible possible.
For a period of time, they ate and stayed well at the guesthouse.
It's fair to say they've never lived such a comfortable life in their entire lives. They don't know how to express their gratitude to Liu Ye.
When Liu Ye appeared before them with Xiao Weiguo.
The couple repeatedly bowed to Liu Ye to express their gratitude.
"Young lady, we're complete strangers, yet my husband and I have caused you so much trouble. We really don't know how to thank you enough."
Liu Ye quickly stopped them.
"Uncle Shangguan, please don't do this. I'm so much younger than you, I can't bear it."
The woman looked up at Liu Ye with tears streaming down her face.
"Young lady, you are a living Bodhisattva. Even though you are young, you can handle this."
"Yes, yes, when we get back, we will definitely set up a longevity tablet for you and kowtow to you and offer incense every day."
The man echoed his sentiment. This made Liu Ye feel even more embarrassed.
Xiao Weiguo stepped forward at the opportune moment.
"Gentlemen, you really don't need to be so polite. Although we helped you a little, your daughter helped us even more, so we are the ones who should be saying thank you."
Looking at the well-dressed Xiao Weiguo, the two knew that he must also be a leader of this large factory.
"Who are you, sir?"
Liu Ye quickly introduced them to the situation.
“He’s my husband, and also the head of this company. He came here specifically to see you two. He’s right, your daughter has brought great prestige to our company this time, and we really need to thank you properly.”
The couple muttered to themselves as they listened to her say that.
"What are you saying? Girl, you don't need to flatter us. We've only been causing you trouble these past few days, enjoying ourselves here. What can we do to help you?"
Liu Ye remained silent, then pulled a beautifully packaged cassette tape from her bag—the newly released edition of "Silent Love."
“Uncle Shangguan, you don’t believe me when I tell you. Listen to this. This is a song written by Miss Xue’er. It has already been published by Zhou Ruolan and her disciple. Listen to it.”
She asked a staff member to bring a tape recorder. She opened the box and installed it inside.
Press the play button, and the intro from the tape recorder will begin.
Then, Xiao Yue's singing voice came out.
The melancholic melody quickly filled the room. Although the couple didn't know what the song was about, they knew it was written by their daughter, and the sorrowful tune seemed to be telling them something.
It was as if she was slowly leaving, turning back every few steps, forever thinking of the two of them.
Several songs were played in a row, and no one in the room spoke, letting the music flow quietly into everyone's hearts.
Finally, the tape recorder clicked and automatically switched to the next button, indicating that the tape was finished.
Liu Ye then raised her head and said to them,
"So, are you satisfied with Xiaoxue's song?"
The couple nodded repeatedly, wiping away their tears as they spoke.
"We're very satisfied, extremely satisfied! We've never heard such a beautiful song before. Thank you so much!"
At this moment, Xiao Weiguo took out 20,000 yuan and placed it in front of them.
"Uncle, Auntie, this is the money we paid for buying Xiaoxue's lyrics. Please keep it. It's not much, but it's a small token of our appreciation."
Originally, he wrote all these songs himself, and publishing them under Shangguan Qixue's name was already helping his family, so there was no need to give them money.
But Xiao Weiguo was willing to pay for the love of such a kind and great young girl.
If he weren't worried they wouldn't accept it, Xiao Weiguo would have liked to give even more.
The couple were startled to see so much money in front of them.
Twenty thousand yuan, brand new hundred-yuan bills, two whole bundles—they had never seen so much money in their lives.
"No, no, no, please take your money back. How can we take your money back?"
The two people, at a loss, returned the money, resolutely refusing to accept it.
Liu Ye smiled and said softly.
"Please accept this. It's in exchange for the lyrics Xiaoxue wrote. If you don't accept it, people outside will say we're infringing on their copyright."
“We don’t understand anything about infringement, but we know you’re helping us. If we take your money back, what kind of image would that be? Who asks for help and then asks for money?”
No matter what they said, the two refused to accept the money, and in the end, Xiao Weiguo had no choice but to say something.
“Since you don’t want this money, I’ll donate it to a leukemia fund so that we can contribute to the treatment of leukemia patients. In addition, I will have the fund send you a sum of money every month for your future living expenses. After all, the fund was established in Xiaoxue’s name, and the money was earned from her songs. This money is a way for Xiaoxue to show her filial piety to you. You can’t refuse, can you?”
Since things had come to this point, what else could the couple say but agree to Xiao Weiguo's suggestion?
Xiao Weiguo believed that with Shangguan Qixue's filial piety and the passage of time, the couple should be able to get over the pain of losing their daughter.
