Chapter 114: Chapter 114: Might as Well Since I’m Free Anyway

Jia Manman was slapped so hard she fell to the ground, completely dazed.

"Uncle, you... have you gone mad? Why did you hit me?"

"Mad your mother’s madness!" Jia Yongfu cursed furiously, "I told you to get the hell away from me and never let me see your disastrous face again!"

With that, Jia Yongfu left in a fit of rage.

No wonder Jia Yongfu was so furious; if not for Jia Manman, he would never have offended Director Chen, nor would he have lost his job with an annual salary of a million.

His career, his bright future, all were ruined by Jia Manman, the harbinger of disaster!

Clueless Jia Manman stood frozen in place, as if she had seen a ghost.

What on earth was happening?

Just moments ago, her uncle had left as if all was well, and he had even agreed to handle her employment procedures, so how come, after just a meeting, he had completely turned against her?

"My god, what’s gotten into Vice President Jia? Why is he so furious?"

"Don’t you know? Vice President Jia got fired, of course he’s in a bad mood!"

Hearing the murmurs of the colleagues around her, Jia Manman was utterly shocked.

Her uncle got fired?

How could this be?

Suddenly, Jia Manman thought of something.

The words Chen Xuan had said before he left seemed to suggest that he had already known about her uncle getting fired.

But how could he know such things?

Jia Manman felt something was off but couldn’t quite understand what it was.

Yet what she cared about the most was that she had lost her job with an annual salary of several hundred thousand, and facing Chen Xuan again, she feared she could no longer hold her head high!

After leaving Yida Plaza, Chen Xuan drove straight to the old Hutong area.

Usually, Chen Xuan mostly visited on weekends with Xiaoyu, but today, since he was passing by, he thought he would check on his mother.

On the way, Chen Xuan received a call from Zhao Boqian.

"Mr. Chen, Du Mingshen called me just now and said he would like to meet with you. Are you available?"

"Du Mingshen?" Chen Xuan was taken aback.

They had only met once at the Du family in Nanhu and were not close, but seeing as the other party had let go of the opportunity to rise to power by seizing the Blood Tai Sui, Chen Xuan somewhat admired his character.

Without overthinking it, Chen Xuan immediately gave Zhao Boqian the address of the old Hutong area.

Half an hour later, Chen Xuan arrived at the old Hutong, only to find the gate locked tight, and no response came from his calls.

Chen Xuan was surprised; his mother was rarely out, so could she have gone somewhere?

Just as Chen Xuan was about to leave, the gate next door suddenly opened, and Jia Manman’s mother, Zhao Chunmei, came out.

"Chen Xuan, you’re here to see your mother? She should still be at work right now."

"Working?" Chen Xuan was stunned.

His mother wasn’t in good health and had always been resting at home, so when had she started working?

"Where is my mother working?"

"You don’t know? It’s the car wash at the entrance of the Hutong."

Zhao Chunmei’s smile carried a hint of disdain, clearly thinking Xuu Suzhen’s job was somewhat undignified.

Chen Xuan stood there, stunned.

His mother, in poor health and at her age, was actually washing cars for people!

His mother certainly didn’t need the money; the only reason she would go out to work was to take more pressure off Chen Xuan, her son!

With this realization, Chen Xuan was overwhelmed with guilt.

He now drives a luxury car and lives in a mansion, yet he still has his mother doing the dirty and tiring job of washing cars for others. He’s simply inhuman!

Without any hesitation, Chen Xuan headed straight to the car wash.

The car wash was located at the entrance of the alley. The shop wasn’t small, and with its great location, business was booming.

At this moment, a figure was busy next to a car.

On a hot day, she was wearing a waterproof raincoat and thick rubber boots, her clothes soaked through with sweat.

It was Xu Suzhen!

Xu Suzhen has always been a strong-willed person, always wanting to earn more money so she could help her son when he needed it, which is why she found this job close to home.

But she was afraid Chen Xuan would object, so she never mentioned it to him.

The car wash’s policy was that one could get five yuan for washing a car. To earn more, Xu Suzhen washed dozens of cars each day—an undoubtedly heavy workload for someone her age.

After finally finishing cleaning a car, Xu Suzhen was fatigued and aching all over.

Before she could take a break, a green Ferrari sports car pulled up next to her.

"Hurry up and clean the stuff in my car. My buddies are waiting to go drinking!" a fashionable young man said to Xu Suzhen offhandedly.

"Oh, okay."

Xu Suzhen couldn’t really refuse and hurriedly carried the bucket over.

However, the moment she opened the car door, a pungent smell wafted out. The driver’s seat and car door were covered in vomit from drunkenness, an extremely disgusting sight.

Even Xu Suzhen had to cover her nose and mouth, choked by the nauseating odor.

"Young Master Pong, look, even the car wash lady is disgusted by your car! Hahaha..." one of them exclaimed.

"To be looked down upon by a car wash lady, Young Master Pong, you’ve really lost face, hahaha..." another chimed in.

The handsome young man was accompanied by seven or eight companions, all driving sports cars.

Seeing Xu Suzhen’s reaction, they all took malicious delight.

Liu Peng instantly felt humiliated.

He had gotten drunk and vomited in his car the night before. He had only remembered to wash it after a night, and the stench was indeed repulsive.

But to think that a mere car wash lady would dare to look down on him was simply too disrespectful!

"Damnit, a car washer dares to look down on me?" Liu Peng vented all his anger on Xu Suzhen.

Xu Suzhen quickly tried to appease him with a smile, "Young man, you’ve misunderstood. I didn’t mean it that way."

"If you didn’t mean it, then why the hell are you covering your nose!" Liu Peng cursed.

"Let me tell you, clean the car well. If there’s even a bit that dissatisfies me, you’ll never hear the end of it from me!"

Having said that, Liu Peng casually sat down under a nearby gazebo, crossing his legs and starting to play cards with the other rich second generations.

Xu Suzhen had no choice but to endure the stench and begin cleaning the filth inside the car.

Twenty minutes later, the nasty mess was thoroughly cleaned, and the entire sports car was wiped spotlessly clean, shining under the sunlight.

"Young man, your car is clean now," Xu Suzhen said with a smile.

However, Liu Peng only glanced at the sports car in the distance, then said coldly, "It’s not clean enough, wipe it again!"

"Ah? But, I’ve already cleaned it very thoroughly, go take a look if you don’t believe me..."

Liu Peng, impatient, snapped, "Damnit, what’s there to see? If I tell you to wipe it, you wipe it. What’s with all the nonsense?"

That car wash lady had made Liu Peng lose face in front of his friends, so he naturally wanted to regain his dignity.

Besides, they still had time before their drinking session, so he might as well keep himself occupied.
