Rejected on the spot by Lu Sen, Village Chief Yu was so angry that his face turned red and he suddenly stood up.
He shouted angrily, "Lu Sen, don't think you can act arrogantly just because you've latched onto the He family. Humph!"
"This is Lujia Village, not your territory where you can do whatever you want. Although Old Master He came here to retire, he can't stay here forever. What will you do then?"
Upon hearing Village Chief Yu's words, An Wan couldn't help but roll her eyes a few times, like a fish that had just died.
Lu Chunhe covered her eyes, telling her not to make such an ugly expression, as it would ruin her image as a good younger sister.
Lately, he's noticed that she's been rolling her eyes more and more, and making ugly expressions and gestures.
Has she let herself go?
An Wan struggled a few times, but couldn't resist Lu Chunhe, so she had no choice but to give up.
She wanted to speak, but didn't dare to disturb Lu Sen.
"Sweetie, have some candy." Lu Jiayan, sitting in his wheelchair, took a piece of candy out of his pocket and handed it to An Wan.
The candy was wrapped in pretty wrappers, making it very appealing.
At least Lu Zhili was eyeing Lu Jiayan's candy.
An Wan took the candy, unwrapped it, threw it into her mouth, and bit it hard, making a crunching sound.
Lu Zhili pouted; he had no candy to eat.
My younger sister usually shares half with me, but she didn't this time.
He was very sad.
"Village Chief Yu, I'm sorry, I really can't help you." No matter what Village Chief Yu said, Lu Sen insisted on his decision.
He naturally knew what Village Chief Yu was up to: he wanted Yu Baozhu to get close to He Sichen and become the young mistress of the He family.
Anyone with eyes could see that He Sichen looked down on Yu Baozhu, but the village chief and his daughter were still daydreaming.
An Wan gave Lu Sen a thumbs up and mouthed to him softly, "Dad, you're awesome!"
Rejected again, and seeing that Lu Sen remained unmoved, Village Chief Yu slammed his fist on the table in anger. "Since you're unwilling to help me, then I have no reason to help you either. Return the money to me tomorrow, or your whole family will have to leave the village the day after!"
As a village chief, he certainly has that much ability.
There are plenty of ways to drive the Lu family away.
After several threats failed, Village Chief Yu was completely at a loss with Lu Sen.
"Okay, I'll pay you back tomorrow. I'll have my eldest son deliver the money to your house. Please tear up the IOU on the spot to avoid any trouble later."
Lu Sen's face darkened instantly, and his relaxed expression vanished.
He no longer needs to feign politeness with Village Chief Yu.
Since Village Chief Yu is going to turn against him, he can't back down.
An Wan gave a thumbs up again.
Lu Jingxing and his brothers were surprised by their father's firm stance and wanted to clap their hands in support.
"You!" Enraged, Village Chief Yu threw the glass on the ground with a loud bang, shattering it into pieces.
"Lu Sen, you've got some nerve! I'll wait and see if you can pay me back tomorrow. If not, humph! Just you wait!"
He's so angry!
This Lu Sen is heartless. I've helped him for so long, borrowing more than a thousand yuan for several years. Where can I find someone as good as me?
He's inhuman for not even helping with this small favor.
Seeing Village Chief Yu storm off from his new home, Lu Sen looked grave and was somewhat worried.
Although the 10,000 yuan in cash was in his room, and he was sure he could pay back the 1,000 yuan owed to Village Chief Yu tomorrow, he estimated that if he paid it back once, the He family's creditors would come to collect the money.
An Wan walked to Lu Sen's side and took his hand. "Dad, it's okay, the sun will shine even brighter tomorrow."
"Thank you, Wanwan." With his youngest daughter's comfort, Lu Sen smiled again.
Just when everyone thought the matter would be easily resolved, the next day, Lu Jingxing and his brother Lu Chunhe went to Village Chief Yu's house early in the morning to pay off their debts.
He tore up the IOUs on the spot.
Enraged, Village Chief Yu smashed all the vases and glasses in his house to pieces after the two brothers left.
Before they even got back to their new home, three guests showed up at the door.
Looking at He Lijuan and her parents, An Wan knew that trouble was brewing again today.
“I returned to the village after dark yesterday afternoon and only then did I learn about the collapse of your house. I hope your family is alright! I was terrified. If it hadn't been so dark, I would have come to see you much sooner.”
He Guoqiang's smiling face and mannerisms were just like a businessman's.
"Everything's fine at home, don't worry," Lu Sen replied simply.
Having just finished his contest with Village Chief Yu, he now faces He Guoqiang, and he's really exhausted.
He Lijuan felt a little down when she saw that Lu Jingxing was not in the room.
Seeing her daughter like this, He's mother secretly gave her a look, telling her to calm down, not to rush, and to be reserved.
"It's good that everything is alright at home. As long as everyone is okay, we'll be able to make money and build the house soon, so don't worry," He Guoqiang comforted Lu Sen.
"Yes, that's what I think too. Let's take it slow."
"I hope Jingxing's college entrance exam goes well! The county also experienced flooding, but it wasn't as severe as in the village. Otherwise, this year's college entrance exam would have had to be postponed by a few days."
"Yes, thankfully the situation in the county is not as serious as in the village."
The two chatted casually, one sentence at a time.
"By the way, where's Jingxing? I haven't seen him. I know he did very well on the college entrance exam this time. Maybe he's shy and hiding away!"
He Guoqiang joked, looking around, and saw only Lu Zhili and his brothers and An Wan in the living room.
Lu Jingxing and Lu Chunhe were nowhere to be seen.
"Lu Sen, it's fine for you to stay at Mr. He's place for a day or two, but it's not good to stay any longer. When will you build a house? Do you have enough money?"
