At the visitor window, Yu Lili and her son were crying their eyes out, blaming Lu Xiuwen for having a brain fart and actually hitting her.
A year isn't a long time, but he'll definitely lose his job. When he comes out, he'll have a stain on his record, and it will be difficult for him to find work.
"Lili, it's my fault. I was instigated and acted too impulsively. Go find Lu Wanqing. She promised to lend me a thousand yuan. With that money, at least I won't be bothered by loan sharks anymore!"
No, I called him for Lu Wanqing. You need to ask her for more money; you can't just let it go like this!
Lu Xiuwen said with a frown.
Yu Lili stopped crying. "Hmph, if she can give me money, I'll stay at home and wait for you to come back. Otherwise, I'll take Zhuangzhuang back to my parents' house!"
After saying that, she took her son's hand and walked towards Lu Wanqing's factory.
The same scenario played out again with Lili.
She was also turned away by the security guard.
However, she was furious and didn't care whether the security guard agreed or not; she grabbed the child and rushed inside.
"Lu Wanqing, come out here!" she shouted as she walked, as if the bigger the commotion, the greater her chances of winning.
He hurriedly called Huo Xiao from the doorway.
Huo Xiao hurriedly ran downstairs to stop him.
“This is a factory. If you make any more noise, I’ll call security,” he warned.
He saw that the angry woman was holding a child's hand, and he managed to control his temper.
Yu Lili did not stop her antics. She pushed him away and walked towards the office building.
Huo Xiao had no choice but to lead her to find Lu Wanqing.
Making a scene in public is definitely not a good thing.
Lu Wanqing was engrossed in her work when she asked Huo Xiao who had come.
Yu Lili stepped forward, intending to snatch the documents from Huo Xiao's hand, but Huo Xiao pushed her away.
"Say what you have to say, don't think I won't hit you!" Huo Xiao clenched his fists, his face darkening.
The child next to the woman started crying loudly because his mother was being pushed like that.
Lu Wanqing then put down her work, took a White Rabbit milk candy from the drawer, walked to Zhuangzhuang's side, and smiled as she said to him:
"Here you go, little one, have a candy!"
Zhuangzhuang stared intently at the candy, but pulled his hand back.
"I don't want to! You're a bad person!" he suddenly shouted.
Yu Lili immediately shielded him behind her, shouting angrily:
"You're acting like a good person here. My husband went to jail because of you, but you're acting like nothing happened."
"Today, you must give me two thousand yuan as compensation, or I'm not leaving this place!"
Huo Xiao was so angry that he clenched his fist and wanted to punch her, but Lu Wanqing stopped him.
"Alright, you can go now. I'll talk to you." She told him to leave first.
Then his smile froze instantly, and he sneered at Yu Lili:
"You're Lu Xiuwen's wife? Your child is so young, how will you manage in the future?"
"Don't pretend. Xiuwen said he'd give me two thousand yuan and then he'd refuse to say anything more. Otherwise, he'd do anything to get you jailed!" Yu Lili threatened.
Actually, the amount of two thousand yuan was something she came up with herself.
She has to repay a thousand yuan in high-interest loans, and she also needs money for her own living expenses. Two thousand yuan shouldn't be a lot for Lu Wanqing!
Originally, Lu Wanqing did not intend to give Lu Xiuwen a thousand yuan, but after seeing Yu Lili, she suddenly had a new idea.
She laughed and said, "You're not going to go back to the Lu family to continue living with the money, are you?"
You know in your heart how Lu Xiuwen has treated you all these years. Do you still want to wait for him to come out and rekindle your past relationship?
He used to be addicted to gambling and had no ambition. After he got out, he didn't even have a job. Do you think he can support you and the child?
Lu Wanqing recently had Huo Xiao investigate Zhang Guixiang's life over the past few years, and Lu Xiuwen is truly disappointing.
How could Yu Lili, a college student, not be disappointed?
Besides, her father was, after all, a section chief.
"Stop talking! Don't try to drive a wedge between us!" Yu Lili sternly stopped her from continuing.
Lu Wanqing didn't say anything more. "Huo Xiao, see the guest out!"
Further discussion is pointless.
Huo Xiao rushed in with several guards and dragged the two men out.
She tried to scream, but he covered her mouth.
"If you want me to call the loan sharks, I've already called them over," Huo Xiao whispered in her ear.
Yu Lili was terrified, her eyes wide as light bulbs, and she used her whole body to resist Huo Xiao throwing her out.
Unfortunately, her small frame was no match for Huo Xiao. Soon, she and Zhuangzhuang were thrown outside and quickly seized by loan sharks.
They all looked fierce and menacing, holding small knives in their hands, which frightened the two children, one big and one small, making them tremble with fear.
"Take them away. I want to see if they can pay back the money!" The loan shark blindfolded the two men and took them to his residence.
An hour later, the blindfold was removed, and Yu Lili struggled to adjust to the outside light, only to discover that she was in an abandoned factory.
"What are you trying to do? Let us go. My dad is a section chief in the government office," Yu Lili said firmly.
No sooner had she finished speaking than a loud slap landed on her face.
Loan sharks show no mercy; anyone who dares to challenge them will be beaten to a pulp first.
Yu Lili's face was turned to the side by the blow. Seeing her son lying on the ground, she was filled with anger and sorrow, realizing that she had lost this time. She quickly changed her tone and begged for mercy:
"Brother, I beg you, I really have no money, please let me and my son go!"
"Lu Xiuwen borrowed a thousand yuan from me, but when the loan was due, he went to jail. Tell me, if I don't come after you, who else can I turn to?" the big-faced loan shark leader said gruffly.
Then, he grabbed Yu Lili's hair and forced her to look at his son.
"Your son has already cried himself unconscious. If you don't want anything to happen to him, you'd better give me back the money. Otherwise, I can't guarantee he'll lose a hand or a foot."
"No!" she screamed desperately, "Don't touch my son, I'll give you your money back!"
Her mind raced, recalling what Lu Wanqing had just told her. She sneered inwardly, "This is what Lu Xiuwen has brought me."
She really doesn't need to cling to those feelings from her student days anymore.
“Give me three days. I’ll go back and raise the money. Then you can come to the Lu family to collect it!” Yu Lili said.
Da Lian originally wanted to keep the child as a hostage, but Yu Lili resisted fiercely, saying that she would rather die together with him, so they let the two go.
However, after Lili was out of their sight, she did not return to the Lu family, but instead went back to her parents' home.
Because she insisted on marrying Lu Xiuwen, even though her husband's family and her own family lived only about ten kilometers apart, they had never met.
She hasn't even been back for two or three years.
But when she thought about returning to the cadre family compound, with guards at the entrance, what good would it do to bow her head and admit her mistake to her parents?
