Chapter 1303: The Daughter Abandoned During Escape (15)
Wei Yu'an finally found out that the rice shop had been transferred by Chang Shichu. He was so anxious that he immediately ran back home from the shop. As expected, he saw Chang Shichu at home and he did not go out to work as usual.
He was so anxious that he asked her immediately, "Boss, why did you sell the rice shop? Did something happen at home that requires money? I have saved up some money, and I can give it all to you..."
Chang Shichu smiled when he heard what he said and said, "No, there are only four of us at home, isn't that fine? Why would we need money? Just keep the little money you saved with great difficulty."
"Then why did you give up the rice shop?" Wei Yu'an was very puzzled. "Isn't our shop doing very well? It's a pity to give it up like this."
Chang Shichu explained, "Because my family has no backers, the new chief came and targeted me, wanting to seize all our family property. Of course, I was unwilling to let them take it away, so I simply transferred it to someone else who could protect the shop. The boss who bought my shop is a very good person. He promised me that the price of grain will not be raised, and the shop assistants will not be treated unfairly. You can continue to work there."
Wei Yu'an only paid attention to the first sentence she said, and said sadly: "It turns out that it is because our family has no backing that we are bullied by the new superior..."
After he finished speaking, a confused look appeared on his face. After a while, he asked Chang Shichu solemnly: "Boss, how can I become my own backer so that others dare not bully me?"
When Chang Shichu heard him say this, he couldn't help but look at him with new eyes. When most people hear their family members say that their family's property cannot be preserved because they have no backers, their first reaction is probably "then let's go find a backer", but Wei Yu'an was thinking "I want to be my own backer"...
This comparison is enough to show his broad vision, outlook and ambition.
"Then you must have abilities that surpass everyone else, so outstanding that no one dares to ignore you and has to consider your ideas." Chang Shichu replied.
Wei Yu'an seemed to be thinking about something. He did not continue to ask. Chang Shichu returned to the study, found several books and said to him, "These books may help you find the direction to work hard."
Wei Yuan took it quickly and looked at the titles: "What kind of life do you want to live", "Seeing your heart at work", "Science Talks", "The Universe", "Homeland", "The Torrent of History"...
"Thank you, Boss. I will definitely finish reading these books carefully." When Wei Yu'an saw the title of the book, he knew what expectations Chang Shichu had for him.
"Don't be in a hurry, just wait and see. You are still young." Chang Shichu touched his head. Now that he had been well taken care of for a few months, his nutrition had caught up and he had regained the health and vitality of a teenager. He had also grown taller and was almost as tall as Chang Shichu. Soon she would not be able to touch his head anymore.
After Wei Yu'an finished his meal, he went back to his room to read a book, but Chang Shichu came to Anbang again in the middle of the night.
"What happened to you? Are you being chased by someone?" Chang Shichu looked at An Bang with an unhappy face as he covered his arm. Blood quickly soaked through the bandage he had hastily wrapped around the wound and dripped onto the ground.
"I'm not being hunted, but it's almost like that... I have no other choice but to come to you..." An Bang said with a guilty conscience, but still asked shamelessly, "Do you have a medical kit at home? Bandage my wound, otherwise the blood on my arm will keep dripping and stain your floor, which is not good."
Chang Shichu was amused by his shamelessness, but he didn't have the heart to watch him die, so he took out the medicine box and re-sutured and bandaged his arm.
"Master Chang, you can bandage wounds?" An Bang was a little surprised. "I didn't expect you to be so versatile. To be honest, are you really not going to join our organization? Your talents can only be fully utilized in our organization. Wouldn't it be a waste if you don't use them well?"
Chang Shichu sneered, "Okay, give up. I won't join any organization because I'm lazy and undisciplined. I don't like being disciplined, and I don't like living without freedom. Although your organization is great, I'm not such a great person. You can ask me to donate some money to support you, but if you ask me to hide my real name and use a false identity to pretend to be someone else, I can't stand it."
"Well, you don't look like someone who can tolerate it, and I'm afraid that you will explode and cause harm to us..." An Bang said with a sigh. Although he said this, he still looked at Chang Shichu with regret.
Chang Shichu did not ask him why he was injured, and Anbang did not say anything either. After treating his wound, he asked Chang Shichu for something to eat and drink.
Originally, Chang Shichu didn't want his family to see Anbang, but unfortunately Wei Yu'an came to the kitchen to find food, perhaps because he was hungry from reading, and thus saw Chang Shichu and Anbang.
He was so shocked that his eyes widened, and his clear eyes kept looking at the two of them. Before he could misunderstand, Chang Shichu quickly explained: "This man is called An Bang, and he can barely be considered a partner of mine."
Wei Yu'an didn't know whether he believed it or not. He stared at Anbang's bandaged arm hanging around his neck and asked, "How did he get hurt? Like us, did he have to give up his family's property because he had no backing? Was his arm injured during the resistance?"
Chang Shichu didn't expect that he had such a rich imagination and could actually associate this with his partners. She suddenly didn't know how to answer, so she simply looked at Anbang and let him explain it himself.
An Bang smiled and said, "You know that you transferred your business because you have no backers, right? But didn't Qing'an City say that the new chief disappeared recently? How dare someone seize your business when the biggest boss is gone?" He asked half-truthfully.
"Maybe it's because the new leader is missing that someone wants to take advantage of the situation and seize our family's property." Wei Yu'an answered seriously.
Anbang was a little surprised to hear him say such words, and said to him: "You also understand the situation..."
"Of course, I'm not an ordinary child anymore. I've grown up." Wei Yu'an said unconvinced. People of his age don't like being treated like children the most. They feel that they are adults and can take on adult responsibilities.
An Bang looked at the boy who was trying hard to prove that he had grown up. Suddenly, his eyes lit up and a bold idea popped up in his mind. So he put his intact arm on Wei Yu'an's shoulder and said, "Come on, now that you have grown up, let's have a conversation between men..."
Having said that, he took Wei Yu'an away.
Chang Shichu watched them leave in confusion, thought for a moment, and decided not to follow them, letting them go.
