Chapter 348: New Mission
“I understand, I understand. Leave this matter to me. I won’t let you down, but I hope you won’t be sly in terms of money. If I see that you’re giving me less than this amount, it’ll be easy for me to make mistakes. Baby Wenyi, don’t you think so? It’s just 100,000 yuan.”
Lu Yaohua said in a vicious tone. He addressed her affectionately, as if he was muttering the name of his lover! This disgusted Tang Wenyi. She shook off the goosebumps on her body.?We have nothing to do with each other anymore, so why is he still calling me by my old name? Does he want me to throw up the food from last night?
She held the phone away from her in disgust. She even felt that it was contaminated!
“I’ll give you the money without a cent less. I still have something on, so I’ll hang up first. Don’t call me if there’s nothing else. Otherwise, if Old Master finds out, he’ll scold me.”
This was just the surface reason. In reality, she simply despised him. Other than looking for him for specific matters, she didn’t want to interact with Lu Yaohua at all! In the past, he was a delicious cake in her eyes! But now, he was trash. Just looking at him made her feel disgusted!
Now, she was only squeezing out the last bit of value. After the cooperation was over, she would completely blacklist him!
After hanging up the phone, she hummed happily when the door suddenly opened. “You look very happy. Don’t tell me you’ve done something ‘surprising’ outside that I don’t know about? No. 3, you seemed somewhat strange recently. Can you tell me the reason?”
The old man leaned on his walking stick and said in a deep voice. His dark eyes were deep, and his expressionless face made it difficult to guess what he was thinking.
Tang Wenyi immediately froze on the spot. She pretended to be calm and said, “No, no, nothing happened. I’m happy because I’m already halfway through copying the Buddhist scriptures and will be able to pray for you soon. I-I remember that you went out? Why are you suddenly back?”
“Oh? Is that so?”
The old man acted as if he did not hear the second half of the question. He gestured to Butler He behind him and said, “Old He, bring the things over.”
Butler He walked forward obediently, carrying a few thick ancient books in his arms. He explained, “When Master found out that Third Miss was about to finish copying the Buddhist scriptures, he specially ordered me to find thicker books. This is the Great Perfection of Wisdom Sutra. It’s quite philosophical. I hope Third Miss can copy it all and comprehend it.”
The Great Perfection of Wisdom Sutra?!
Doesn’t that contain the most scriptures? How long would it take me to copy it?! I would never be able to copy it all in my life!?Instantly, her vision darkened and she fainted on the spot!
Butler He seemed to have expected such a scene to happen. He asked calmly, “Master, what should we do now? Should we call the doctor over?”
“There’s no need. Her body is much better than mine! She’s just a little fragile.”
The reason why Old Master Tang did this was because he did not want Tang Wenyi to have time to do anything else. He was afraid that his third daughter would come up with some shocking idea one day and spend all her energy dragging the Tang family down with her! Since she was already back, she should stay at home and copy Buddhist scriptures so that she would not run around!
Thinking of this, he looked at his third daughter who was lying on the ground and left without looking back. He also said, “I want to see her finish copying the first volume this week. If she can’t finish it, I’ll blame the person who supervised her! There’s no need for someone who can’t even do such a small thing to stay in the Tang family!”
“Yes!”
…
At the same time, Lu Yaohua, who was completely unaware that his ex-wife had fainted, walked briskly to the suits store that he used to frequent. When he walked in, everyone immediately looked at him. After all, it was difficult to ignore his farm worker’s aura.
They couldn’t help but wonder,?Does such a person really have the money to pay for an expensive suit?
Therefore, one of the female shop assistants stepped forward and said with a smile, “Did you come to the wrong place? The suits here all start at 20,000 yuan. If you want to buy clothes, you can turn left and go to a normal store. The price there will be much cheaper. If you can’t find the way, I can get someone to take you there.
Please don’t linger in our shop. It would be bad if other customers see you and feel that you are degrading them.”
Clearly, she did not recognize the person in front of her as the former distinguished guest, Lu Yaohua. At most, she found him a little familiar, but she thought that perhaps it was because he had a common face.
Lu Yaohua, on the other hand, seemed to have been poked in his sore spot. He flew into a rage out of humiliation and glanced at the others who were watching the show. He said, “Open your dog eyes and take a good look at who I am! Besides, I have money. Do you have to look down on me?! Do you still want to do business?!”
The mocking look on the store employees’ faces became more obvious.
A farm worker dared to spout nonsense here. They did not know where he got his guts from, or if his brain was damaged? No matter what, this was a high-end shop. How could they serve a mere farm worker? What wishful thinking! If this person could pay for a suit, they would all think that it was dubious money!
At first, the female store assistant had the same thought. No matter how she looked at the other party, she couldn’t tell who he really was. She wanted to take a closer look… Wait! She seemed to have seen this person before in her store. Looking beyond his dark skin, construction site coat, and the scar on his face, she gradually recognized the person in front of her. At last, she said in shock, “Lu Yaohua?!”
Everyone was shocked.
Didn’t people say that Lu Yaohua had gone bankrupt? Where did he get the money to buy new clothes here?!?They subconsciously looked at him a few more times. It had been a while since they last saw him and they thought that he had passed away. They didn’t expect him to still be alive! Now that he had appeared, he looked completely different!
The difference was too big.
If not for the store assistant’s alert, it would have been very difficult for them to associate this farm worker with Lu Yaohua, who used to look like an elite!?However… Has he become so arrogant??They were gloating now. They did not have a good relationship with him in the first place. Moreover, Lu Yaohua thought that he was the boss of Shanghai back then. He looked down on everyone and offended many people.
Therefore, when they saw that he was down and out, they were in such a good mood that they even wanted to set off a few firecrackers to celebrate!
Lu Yaohua didn’t have the time to care about what they were thinking. He just said unhappily to the store assistant, “Why? Are you in disbelief when you see me? Or is it that your store doesn’t want to serve me? Do you practice differentiated treatment? There’s no special note posted at your door, right?”
