68: Chapter 68 Seeking a Visit 68: Chapter 68 Seeking a Visit Brother Dao finished the call and walked over, saying, “The Prince is in the factory now, let me take you there!”
Wu Xiaoyu followed Brother Dao through most of the factory and arrived at the office building.
This office building was inside the cement factory.
Although the entire building was covered in dust, it did not hide its luxury in the slightest.
Entering the office building, they got into the elevator and went straight to the factory director Wang Dongbing’s office.
After Brother Dao knocked on the door, he brought Wu Xiaoyu in and then stepped out.
Wang Dongbing looked up at Wu Xiaoyu and said, “Have a seat!”
His imposing attitude was completely unlike the rumored tyrant; instead, he looked like an earnest worker.
Wu Xiaoyu sat down and said, “Director Wang, I heard that the promissory note for the high-interest loan I owe is in your hands?
I’m here to repay it!”
Wang Dongbing put down the pen in his hand, smiled, and said, “No big deal, just call me Wang Erma.
Nicknames are meant to be used, right?
Wu Xiaoyu took out forty thousand yuan from his bag, placed it on the desk, and said, “Please return the promissory note to me!
This is forty thousand yuan, principal and interest included.
From now on, we’re even!”
Wang Dongbing glanced at the money on the table and said, “Just use the money for now!
After all, it’s not the repayment date yet!”
He paused, then said casually, “I heard you’re quite close to Director Ma?”
Wu Xiaoyu thought, as expected, it’s because of Ma Shengming.
He wants to use me to curry favor with Ma Shengming!
Someone like Wu Xiaoyu would never want to be used as a bargaining chip or a pawn by someone else.
“There’s no such thing.
I don’t know Director Ma.
Please return the promissory note to me!” Wu Xiaoyu said seriously.
Wang Dongbing shook his head and smiled, saying, “I’m just mentioning it casually, no need to deny it in a hurry!”
Xiaoyu ignored his words and simply repeated, “Please return the promissory note to me!”
Wang Dongbing seemed to smile wryly, then opened a folder on a bookshelf behind him, searched for a while, finally found the promissory note, placed it on the table, and said, “Here is your promissory note, I’m returning it to you!”
Before Wu Xiaoyu could reach for the promissory note, Wang Dongbing added, “Actually, you don’t have to repay this money!”
“I must ensure my sister goes to college and will definitely not let her marry your son!” Wu Xiaoyu said sternly.
Wang Dongbing quickly waved his hand, saying, “You misunderstood me.
Marriage should always be a matter of mutual consent!
How could I force anyone?”
“What I mean is that with your relationship with Director Ma, just a word…”
Before he could finish, Wu Xiaoyu snatched the promissory note, stuffed it into his pocket, and said, “I don’t know Director Ma.
Count the money, and if there’s no issue, I’ll leave!”
“No need to count!
You can go!
But I still advise you that connections are a resource too, sometimes more important than money!”
After repaying the debt, Wu Xiaoyu felt the relief of being debt-free, but how did Wang Erma find out about his connection with Ma Shengming?
Such a private matter, Ma Shengming surely wouldn’t talk about it, so how did he find out?
When Wu Xiaoyu got home, he saw his uncle and Liu Chuanfang from the village, sitting in the main room talking with his parents.
He found it quite strange.
Didn’t Liu Chuanfang just lose his son-in-law a few days ago?
What is he doing at our house?
Wu Xiaoyu was puzzled.
He greeted them and was about to go to his room.
“Xiaoyu, come here!
Uncle has something to ask of you!” Uncle Wang Shan said.
Even though this uncle wasn’t close to his family, he was still an elder.
Wu Xiaoyu didn’t want to offend him, so he walked over, sat down, and said, “Uncle, what do you need?
Just tell me, no need to ask.”
Wang Shan felt pleased with this response.
He took a puff of his cigarette and said, “Xiaoyu, although I don’t visit often, I always think about you!”
“Like the saying goes, ‘Uncles love their nephews,’ besides your parents, I’m the closest to you, don’t you agree?”
Wu Xiaoyu didn’t fully agree with his words but still replied with a smile, “Yes, yes.”
“So, if Uncle asks for your help, will you help?”
Wu Xiaoyu wouldn’t agree easily without knowing what it was, worried he might not be able to do it, which would invite criticism, “Uncle, what’s the matter?
Tell me first!”
Wang Shan pressed, “Just say if you’ll agree or not!”
With no other choice, Wu Xiaoyu had to agree, “Tell me!
As long as I can do it, I won’t refuse!”
At this point, Liu Chuanfang, who had been sitting silently, spoke up, “Nephew Xiaoyu, here’s the thing, you know your Sister Yuanyuan’s son-in-law just died a few days ago.
Tomorrow is the seventh day, but his house seems to have something unclean, so…”
Wang Shan took over, saying, “So, they want you to stay over for one night tomorrow!”
Hearing it was about such ominous things, Wu Xiaoyu quickly waved his hand, “Uncle!
I can’t do this, I’m not some immortal!
Please find someone else!”
Father Wu Youliang also quickly said, “Exactly!
He’s just a kid.
How could he handle something like this?”
Liu Chuanfang knew anyone would refuse such a matter, but for his daughter’s safety and happiness, he had to put aside his pride and come to Wu Youliang for help.
“Youliang, brother, please help an old brother out.
Yuanyuan is also a child you watched grow up.
How can you bear to see her stay a widow in the Zhao family for life?” Liu Chuanfang pleaded.
Why would Liu Yuanyuan have to stay a widow in the Zhao family just because I don’t sleep there for a night?
Wu Xiaoyu didn’t understand, waiting to see how his father would refuse.
“Brother Chuanfang, it’s not that I don’t want to help you, but Xiaoyu is still young.
Besides, he’s never done anything butcher-like!” Wu Youliang half explained, half refused.
The mother, out of respect for her brother, didn’t interrupt, but she was absolutely unwilling to let her son sleep over at someone else’s on the seventh day after a death.
Seeing his brother-in-law disagree, Wang Shan tried to persuade Wu Xiaoyu.
He put his arm around Wu Xiaoyu’s shoulder, saying, “This body is stronger than your uncle’s.
You’re in your twenties, it’s time to see the world!”
The mother couldn’t help but retort, “Brother, what kind of world is this to see!
I’d rather he not see it!”
Her words embarrassed Liu Chuanfang more, almost to the point of tears, as he pleaded, “Sister-in-law, I know this is hard, but in these ten villages, Xiaoyu is the only one who has slaughtered pigs and is still unmarried.
Just help my Yuanyuan, will you?”
