Signing In At The Civil Affairs Bureau, I Was Rewarded With A Gorgeous Wife

Chapter 129: Chapter 129: Brother, I Found Your Grandfather!

"Stop!"

Song Yun hurried over and crouched down to carefully examine the elderly person. With just a glance, he had felt this old man seemed very familiar, definitely an elder of someone close to him, but his face was smeared with dust, making it difficult to recognize who he was.

"Do you know him?" the luxury car owner asked in puzzlement, "Kid, let me give you a piece of advice. Don't try to show off. See my car? The cost of repainting and depreciation isn't less than fifty thousand yuan!"

"You won't be shortchanged!"

"Hey, what kind of attitude is that! If you're really capable, transfer the money to me. What's the use of just running your mouth! I've seen people who can talk a better game than you, and in the end, they wimp out just like a little bitch!" The luxury car owner frowned, attempting to grab Song Yun, but at that moment, Huang Baoding rushed over and caught his hand.

"Ow, ow, ow, are you guys bandits or what? You're so barbaric!" the luxury car owner wailed.

"Keep your hands to yourself, or I'll take it as you have bad intentions!" Huang Baoding said with an icy look in his eyes, "As for the money, our Mr. Song has said, you won't be missing a cent. Just stay put here peacefully!"

After saying that, Huang Baoding let go of the car owner's hand. The owner wanted to say some harsh words but, seeing Huang Baoding's muscular build, he could only mutter under his breath and rub his wrist as he moved aside.

"Old sir, what is your name?" Song Yun asked the elderly man patiently.

"Ah... Ah... Ah..."

The old man's fingers kept gesturing, as he mumbled some unintelligible local dialect.

"Don't worry, old sir. Just nod or shake your head to my questions, okay?"

Song Yun asked warmly, holding the man's hand, "Do you have family here in Magic Capital?"

After thinking for a moment, the old man nodded emphatically.

"Are you from Magic Capital?"

The old man shook his head. Song Yun was a bit confused; he had thought that the elders of people he knew all lived in Magic Capital. Could he have recognized the wrong person?

"Old sir, do you have a contact number for your family?"

The old man instinctively nodded but then quickly shook his head, clearly frightened by the luxury car owner's earlier comments.

"Don't be afraid; I said I would take care of today's matter for you. I will pay for the compensation necessary," Song Yun said with a smile, "Can you give me the contact information for your family? After all, you can't spend the night under the bridge, right?"

The old man frantically waved his hands, indicating he knew nothing.

Song Yun was at a loss. Seeing the old man dressed in dirty clothes, it was clear he came from a very poor background. The mention of the car owner's tens of thousands in compensation had terrified him.

Song Yun took out a bank card and handed it to Huang Baoding, "Withdraw fifty thousand yuan."

Huang Baoding hesitated, "Mr. Song, what if I leave..."

"Don't worry, I'm more formidable than you might imagine."

Huang Baoding, seeing the situation wouldn't be resolved until Song Yun decided to leave, hastily ran to an ATM not far away.

About five minutes later, Huang Baoding returned, handing over fifty thousand yuan in cash to Song Yun.

"Old sir, this is the compensation I'm paying for you," Song Yun said, pressing the cash into the old man's hand, "Indeed, what happened today was a result of you running the red light; it's reasonable for us to pay some compensation, but you would have been hospitalized if that gentleman hadn't stopped his car."

The old man looked bewilderedly at the stacks of cash in his hands, not knowing what to do.

But soon, the old man stood up and bowed to Song Yun, then cautiously carried the money over to the luxury car owner's hands.

"Old man, no offense, but pay more attention when crossing the street next time. Today you had someone kind enough to pay for you, but what about next time? I've also had terrible luck today; I nearly died of fright!"

Hearing this, the old man looked like a student being scolded by a teacher, nodding obediently with his head lowered.

"Get the money and leave immediately," Song Yun said indifferently, "If the money can't keep your mouth shut, I don't mind having a doctor help you with that."

The car owner immediately clammed up, explained the situation to the traffic police, and drove off.

The onlookers admired Song Yun greatly after seeing the matter resolved.

In today's society, not many people are willing to stand up for others.

Add to that the fact that this elderly man clearly looked poor, helping him wouldn't have much use, better to just enjoy the show.

The surrounding girls ogled Song Yun with stars in their eyes.

Oh my god!!! What kind of celestial being is this guy!!!

Handsome, kind-hearted, and rich!

This is totally a male deity!!!

The girls nudged each other, each one wanting a friend to help ask for his contact information.

But Huang Baoding's robust physique eventually brought them back to reality. That's right, he obviously wasn't just anybody. No matter how they beautified themselves, they knew they weren't worthy of such a god!!!

Song Yun helped the elderly man to the side of the road and said, "Can you tell me your family member's contact information now?"

The old man thought for a moment and took out a piece of paper from his pocket.

After Song Yun dialed the number, he found it was already in his contacts!

His college buddy, Ye Zi!

Once the call connected, Ye Zi's confused voice came through, "Brother Song, what's up?"

"Bro, I think I've found your grandfather..."

"???"

Ye Zi on the other end was stunned and said, "My grandpa is back in his hometown, he couldn't have traveled all the way to Magic Capital. Brother Song, you didn't run into a scammer, did you?"

"…" Song Yun sighed and said, "I encountered a car accident today, and the elderly man who got hit gave me this phone number. I dialed it and reached you. Do you think it's real or fake?"

"!!! Fuck!!!"

Ye Zi bolted up from his bed and shouted, "Is my grandpa okay?"

"Just some scrapes. Come directly to my place by taxi. I'm still at Hua Shou Villas," Song Yun said calmly, now understanding why the old man looked familiar. During college, this elderly man had come to Magic Capital to look for Ye Zi, carrying a sack with lots of local produce.

Later, Song Yun and his dorm mates had taken the old man out for a meal.

But Ye Zi's hometown was in Ji Province, far from Magic Capital. How could the old man have traveled such a long distance, and why was he picking through trash?

Many questions pressed on Song Yun's mind, and he decided to wait and ask Ye Zi in detail when he arrived.

"Old man, do you remember me? I'm your grandson's college friend. We had a meal together a few years back," Song Yun addressed the elderly man.

Upon hearing Song Yun's words, the old man looked carefully and then his eyes lit up as he excitedly spoke a string of dialect.

Song Yun didn't understand but said cheerfully, "I've contacted Ye Zi. For now, you can come home with me. Ye Zi will be here shortly."

The old man nodded and followed behind Song Yun. When he saw Song Yun's car, he stepped back repeatedly. Even for someone illiterate from the countryside, it was evident Song Yun's car was expensive. With his clothes so dirty, getting them on the car seemed almost sinful!
