Chapter 99 Xiao Jian's Letter



Hard work pays off. After lunch that day, Xiao Weiguo, as usual, had Jiao Bai take him to the entrance of No. 1 Middle School.

Looking through the car window at the small blackboard standing upright.

Normally, when students send mail, the recipient's name is written on this small blackboard.

Students can simply find their letter among a pile of mail in the mailroom and take it once they see their name on it.

There were still more than a dozen names on the blackboard today, and Xiao Weiguo looked at them one by one.

Liu Qing!

That familiar name finally appeared on the blackboard.

"Jiao Bai, stop the car immediately."

Before Jiao Bai could stop the car, Xiao Weiguo pushed open the door and jumped out.

He ran to the small basket where letters were kept at the entrance of the mailroom and started rummaging through it.

The old man guarding the gatehouse didn't seem to be a student of this school based on his age, and he had never seen him before.

"Hey young man, who are you? Are you from this school?"

Xiao Weiguo stopped what he was doing, took out a cigarette, and handed one to the old man.

“Grandpa, I am Liu Qing’s older brother. My younger brother is not studying well and is dating a girl from another school. They are writing letters to each other all day long. As his older brother, I can’t watch this go on and ruin his studies.”

The old man took the cigarette. He looked well-dressed and didn't seem like a bad guy.

"Then you should look for them. Kids these days, I don't know where they picked up these bad habits from, they're dating randomly at such a young age, do they even know what a partner is?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Weiguo continued searching through the pile of letters one by one.

As a result, he went through all the letters but couldn't find Liu Qing's letter.

Xiao Weiguo was dumbfounded.

"Sir, is this all? I can't find it. Could it be somewhere else?"

The old man thought for a moment, then suddenly realized, "You might be too late. These letters were delivered when school let out this morning, and he probably saw them and took them himself."

Xiao Weiguo was so angry he wanted to slap himself a few times.

After much effort, they finally found a weakness, but due to carelessness, Liu Qing took the initiative.

Did I slip and fall into the mud?

Once the letter is in that kid's hands, it will be difficult to get him to hand it over.

Perhaps he has already read the letter and disposed of the body. Xiao Weiguo paced anxiously, finally gritting his teeth.

Fine, if the soft approach doesn't work, we'll have to try the hard one. At worst, we can coax him properly together with Liu Ye later.

"Sir, I can't watch my brother go down this path. I have to go in and find him."

Seeing how anxious he was, the gatekeeper didn't think much of it and waved him and Jiao Bai into the campus.

He didn't really know which class Liu Qing was in, but Xiao Weiguo had his own way of doing it.

The two of them went directly to the principal's office.

The principal was a middle-aged man in his forties, wearing glasses and with a refined and scholarly appearance.

His name is Guo Chuanzhi. Xiao Weiguo knows him. The two had met before when Shanshan skipped a grade. Xiao Weiguo even donated 200,000 yuan to the school for desks, chairs and office supplies.

After knocking on the door and entering, Guo Chuanzhi saw that it was Xiao Weiguo who came in and immediately got up to greet him.

When the God of Wealth comes knocking, there's no reason to be negligent.

"Oh, Chairman Xiao, what brings you here?"

Guo Chuanzhi ran over and shook hands with Xiao Weiguo, looking very enthusiastic.

"Principal Guo, don't even mention it, I need to trouble you again today."

"What is it? Just tell us, and our school will do its best to help."

Xiao Weiguo smiled and waved his hand.

"It's nothing serious, it's just that I have a relative named Liu Qing who is in the third year of junior high school at your school."

He recounted how the letter Liu Qing received contained her brother's address.

He dared not talk nonsense to the principal like he did to the old gatekeeper. If he messed things up and Liu Qing got fired again, he would have no way to communicate with the kid then.

After listening, the principal adjusted his glasses and asked, "Then tell me, how can I help you? Should I go directly to him and ask for it?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Weiguo thought it best to forget it. If the principal went to ask for it himself, it was uncertain whether the kid would hand it over. Even if he forced it, knowing it was his idea, wouldn't the kid become even more hostile towards him?

"Principal Guo, how about this?"

"Tell me which class he's in, then find some excuse to call him to the office. I'll sneak in and copy down the address from the letter."

Upon hearing this, Guo Chuanzhi realized it wasn't a difficult task.

He called over the director of the junior high school's basic department and asked him to find a reason to invite Liu Qing to his office, no matter what it took, to buy Xiao Weiguo five minutes.

The principal has spoken; this is a trivial matter. For a department head, calling the students to his office is a piece of cake.

He told Xiao Weiguo the location of Liu Qing's class and told him to hide somewhere in advance. Then he went to Liu Qing's class himself.

Liu Qing was in class at the moment, but he couldn't hear a word of what the Chinese teacher on the podium was saying.

Because he was distracted.

This morning I received a letter from Xiao Jian saying that he has been transferred to the office and has become a full-time employee.

And now the work is very easy, just running errands for the factory manager.

Liu Qing was very happy for her good friend who had finally made it through the tough times.

However, when Xiao Jian talked about his family, he was clearly still very hostile towards his elder brother.

Logically speaking, now that Xiao Weiguo has made something of himself, if Xiao Jian comes back now, he can also enjoy the life of the wealthy.

Based on Liu Qing's observations over the years, Xiao Weiguo doesn't seem to be as bad as Xiao Jian described.

That guy is treating Sister Shanshan and Xiao Jiang and Xiao Yue incredibly well now. For example, Xiao Weiguo has never restricted Sister Shanshan's food, clothing and spending during this period. She and her own sister Liu Ye wear and use the best things. Not to mention their small county town, even in the provincial capital, they would definitely be treated like wealthy families.
