Chapter 57: She Called to Apologize
Xiang Xiaoyuan suddenly understood Lu Bei’s silence at the dinner table. He had said so many harsh words and was so determined, but in the end, Lu Wanggui only nodded his head…
What was this called? This was called the higher the expectations, the greater the disappointment!
Xiang Xiaoyuan silently calmed the fluctuations in her heart. This was also good. This man had once again proved to her that men are not reliable! The richer a person was, the more stingy he was. The old saying was true!
After quickly calming her emotions, she blinked and asked Lu Wanggui, “Boss Lu, do you want to share your experience with me?”
Lu Wanggui was a big shot in business. He had started his own business at the age of 18 and was a self-made man. He did not have a good family background, nor did he have anyone to support him. Everything was done by himself. He was a real big shot!
Xiang Xiaoyuan felt that it was a waste for her to be Lu Wanggui’s wife. She might as well be Lu Wanggui’s disciple.
Lu Wanggui glanced at her and said calmly, “You seem to have a lot of experience.”
Xiang Xiaoyuan: “?”
…
On the other hand, after Wei Zihang returned home, he remembered that he had boasted in front of Xiang Xiaoyuan that he would bring people to support her on the opening day.
He took out his phone and found a person named Li Hai in his Wechat contact list,
[ Brother Hai, help me find 50 to 60 people to support a newly opened store. The round trip expenses will be reimbursed. Each person’s salary is 300 yuan plus 200 yuan allowance to be used in the store. You can have the things that you bought, as long as you guarantee to use all the money on the store. ]
This would cost at least 30 to 40 thousand yuan.
An ordinary high school student would definitely not have this amount of money, but Wei Zihang was different. His father was an executive of a listed company, and his mother was a shareholder of a large film and television company. Both husband and wife were elites in their respective fields. In addition, Wei Zihang’s mother was an expert in investing and had bought a lot of real estate stocks and the like. Not only that, Wei Zihang’s brother, Wei Yanzheng, was also on the rise in his career. Together with his friends, he set up the company in full swing.
With such a family, Wei Zihang naturally would not be short of money. He usually had a lot of pocket money, plus he received red packets every year during Chinese New Year and other festivals. He was carefree every day. In fact, his bank account had already exceeded six figures.
If spending 30,000 to 40,000 yuan could solve the conflict between Xiang Xiaoyuan and An Yu, then the money spent was really worth it.
Li Hai: [ Are all rich people so capricious now? ]
Wei Zihang: [ Stop wasting time, just say whether you want to do it or not. ]
After sending it, he sent Li Hai a 999 yuan transfer.
Li Hai: [ Okay, you’re boss. Give me the time and place. ]
After Wei Zihang and Li Hai agreed on the time and place, he felt relieved. Just as he was about to put down his phone, Lu Bei’s call came in.
Wei Zihang picked it up. “Brother Bei?”
In the Repulse Bay Villa, Lu Bei was lying on the bed lazily. The game interface was on the computer next to him. After playing games for a whole day, he was a little bored. He just happened to think of Wei Zihang’s attitude towards his stepmother, so he called to confirm.
His friend was not someone who came to apologize after realizing that he had made a mistake a few days ago. Usually, he would apologize on the spot when he made a mistake, or he would come to apologize the next day without any delay.
So, Wei Zihang did not apologize because he had made a mistake… then who was the person who could order Wei Zihang to do things?
The answer was self-evident.
Lu Bei’s tone was lazy. “An Yu called me just now and told me everything.”
Wei Zihang was stunned. “An Yu called you?”
“Yes, she kept crying and said she was sorry.”
Wei Zihang did not expect An Yu to confess everything when the matter was about to be settled.
Did she not trust him?
Wei Zihang’s mood was a little strange. He even felt a little disappointed and sad. However, a teenager valued face the most, he pretended to be relaxed and said, “Brother Bei, don’t blame An Yu. She’s doing this for your own good. She’s afraid that your relationship with your father will worsen after your stepmother gets pregnant. If she didn’t drink that day, she wouldn’t have dared to make such a request to your stepmother. She wasn’t able to eat or sleep well this week. She’s just worried that you’ll get angry when you find out…”
Lu Bei slowly got up from the bed. He could roughly guess what An Yu had said to his stepmother.
“Why do outsiders like you care more about my stepmother getting pregnant than I do?” His friend had thought of something that he himself had never thought of, and even used his name to help him deal with it.
Lu Bei’s mood had been bad these past few days. The situation in his family was already a mess to begin with, and his friend, who he thought he was on good terms with, even interfered and made things even more chaotic. He did not manage to control his emotions very well, so his tone was a little harsh.
Wei Zihang was provoked by his mention of “outsider”. He knew that he was an outsider to the Lu family, but when Lu Bei said this, it had a different effect.
