Yao Qiyue and Jiang Ye have been busy since they arrived in Beijing.
It was a month later before Yao Qiuyue finished the manuscript.
One day she accidentally found the IOU signed by Lin Songshan and Zhang Mengjia.
The Lin family hasn't shown up during this period of time. Does that mean they have to pay back the money?
This is a huge sum of money.
It is already early December and the new year is just around the corner.
Yao Qiuyue planned to get the more than 8,000 yuan back before the New Year so that she could have a good New Year in advance.
In Du Yun's office, Zhang Mengjia slowly sipped a cup of black tea while watching Du Yun busying around.
"I heard your husband, Mr. Lu, is leaving at the end of the month? Why would he just quit his job as a university professor?"
"If you don't stop me, what are you two going to do in the future? Are you going to live on your salary alone?"
Du Yun smiled and sorted the books in his hands into categories.
She and Zhang Mengjia are very good friends. They have been in the same class since junior high school and were assigned to the same school after graduation.
She knew Zhang Mengjia had good intentions, but their paths had diverged since they got married.
Zhang Mengjia is eager to move up the ladder and get a higher position.
But Du Yun just wanted to be an ordinary teacher and teach and educate people.
"Old Lu can be quite stubborn sometimes. Once he makes a decision, nothing can change it."
Zhang Mengjia put down the cup in her hand and looked at Du Yun seriously: "Originally, I wanted my daughter to continue her graduate studies under Lao Lu."
"You know my kid, he's very determined. After graduating from university, he's determined to find a job in South City."
"She's in a difficult position right now. Lao Lin and I are thinking of letting her return to continue her studies."
"I didn't expect Lao Lu to resign just like that."
Du Yun really felt it was a pity. Not to mention Lu Zhian's friends in the academic circle, Du Yun and Lu Zhian had not had any children for so many years.
Lin Wanru is considered Lu Zhian's last disciple, and Du Yun is especially fond of her.
Du Yun would not refuse most of Zhang Mengjia's previous requests.
Today she smiled, a rare sight, but didn't respond.
Du Yun knew why Lin Wanru went to South City and why she suddenly returned to Beijing.
She just didn't want to believe that the child she had loved for many years was a vicious person.
During this period, she did not visit Lin Wanru, but Lin Wanru did not visit her either.
People!
Sure enough, there are more times when people are selfish.
Zhang Mengjia saw that Du Yun didn't say anything, and thought that Lin Wanru had not visited Du Yun for more than a month since returning to Beijing.
Who is to blame for this?
It was Jiang Ye’s powerful wife Yao Qiyue. No one knew what kind of magic potion she had used on Lu Zhian and his wife.
I heard that Lu Zhian and Du Yun went to Jiang's house to find Yao Qiyue after work.
Not to mention that Lin Wanru felt uncomfortable, she herself felt very uncomfortable.
She forced a smile and said, "It's like that child got frightened in South City and fell ill when he returned."
"I've been thinking of coming to see you all this time, so I've been staying at home to recuperate."
Du Yun sighed and said, "It's like that child is good in every way except that he's young and energetic."
"I've learned my lesson this time. Don't be so reckless next time."
Zhang Mengjia rubbed her palms awkwardly. When she heard Du Yun say that, she knew that Lu Zhian had told her everything that happened in Nancheng.
Lu Zhian is also very careless with his words.
"If I were to tell Wanru about this, she would be in tears every day. That child was well-behaved and obedient before she went to South City."
"I just don't know what possessed me, I'm obsessed with Jiang Ye."
"You know, there's nothing wrong with liking someone, and we can't be too harsh on Wanru."
Du Yun was overwhelmed when he heard what Zhang Mengjia said.
"That Jiang Ye kid is married."
Zhang Mengjia shrugged and said nonchalantly, "He and his wife had an arranged marriage. Our new society doesn't recognize such relationships."
"Arranged marriages based on feudal thinking will never be happy."
Du Yun rubbed his forehead and couldn't help but say in a gloomy tone, "It seems that it's because of a mother like you that she is so stubborn and sticks to her own way."
Zhang Mengjia's face darkened: "Du Yun, what do you mean by this?"
"Do you look down on me?"
To say that Zhang Mengjia supports Lin Wanru because of love is absolute bullshit.
If Lin Wanru hadn't repeatedly assured Jiang Ye that he had a bright future and that the family would have a good life in the future, she wouldn't have wanted her daughter to become someone else's child's stepmother.
To put it bluntly, she and Lin Songshan were not an original couple.
She herself took this path and became the director of a department, so why can't her daughter follow the same path?
A good partner is also your capital.
As for mistresses and destroying other people's families, these are all excuses used by losers.
Du Yun naturally noticed Zhang Mengjia's indifference and stubbornness.
"You can't keep pampering Wanru like this. You'll ruin her."
Zhang Mengjia saw Du Yun's face that looked like he was preaching to her, and stood up angrily: "I think you have been bewitched by that Yao Qiyue."
"Otherwise, why would you be so devoted to her?"
"Wanru is the child you watched grow up. Look at yourself, where is your heart leaning now?"
"I also heard that you want to publish a book for Yao Qiyue? That's ridiculous. What can a country girl like her write?"
Zhang Mengjia was really angry. She had been friends with Teacher Du for many years, but her friendship was not as good as that of a wild girl from outside.
Du Yun also lost his temper: "Zhang Mengjia, you are just being unreasonable."
"I don't own the publishing house. Can I just publish books whenever I want? Think before you speak."
Du Yun doesn't indulge Zhang Mengjia.
Zhang Mengjia's face was gloomy and ugly. She looked at Du Yun not as a long-time friend, but more like a long-time enemy.
In the end, Du Yun, who was soft-hearted, was the first to give in: "You came to see me today, is there something going on?"
"Just say it directly, there's no need to involve others."
Zhang Mengjia didn't expect that she was still protecting Yao Qiyue in the end, but she did have something to do today.
"My family's Lao Lin signed an IOU to Yao Qiyue before, but we don't have that much money right now. I thought of asking you to mediate with Yao Qiyue and see if we can slow things down."
"Lao Lin and I each earn less than 200 yuan for a job, but she's asking for tens of thousands of yuan."
Zhang Mengjia really looked down on Yao Qiyue. This person might not have even seen how much ten thousand yuan was in his entire life, yet he dared to be so greedy.
They were not without a solution. At least after Lu Zhian left, Jiang Ye's family of three would remain in Beijing. She wanted to see how rampant Yao Qiyue could become by then.
Du Yun didn't expect that Zhang Mengjia was looking for her because of this matter. She thought it was about Lin Wanru.
