(Yesterday there was a power outage at ho, it stopped in the middle of the night the day before yesterday, power only ca back last night, I didn’t have ti to write, I’ll write more today, aiming for three or four updates, I’ll try my best to write, whatever I can manage.)
Liu Fengsheng refuses to plead with Fang Pingying, so the only result is that Liu Fengsheng’s supermarket will go bankrupt, because he can’t repay the bank loan, and then he will certainly face national sanctions.
And Liu Fengsheng’s father will inevitably face punishnt too, at best removed from office, at worst thoroughly investigated all the way, potentially exposing all the shady things he has done over the years on the job, and possibly facing legal consequences.
To Mr. Liu, he’s worked at the bank his whole life, from a small role at the beginning to finally being able to sit in the bank director’s position, it’s been his life’s glory, looking forward to retiring peacefully in a few years, he absolutely won’t allow anything to go wrong at this ti, even if he exhausts all his abilities, he will definitely resolve this matter.
But he also knows his son’s temperant, proud and arrogant, asking him to plead with Fang Pingying would truly be difficult for him to bow his head.
In utter helplessness, Mr. Liu recalled that Fang Pingying had visited their ho before, and they as a couple had t her, and he also knows that Fang Pingying and Tingting get along very well, so he thought of using Tingting, having his wife take Tingting to visit Fang Pingying’s ho to discuss the matter.
Of course, Mr. Liu’s intention is to start with courtesy before resorting to force.
If Fang Pingying agrees to invest in Liu Fengsheng’s supermarket, that would be great for everyone, actually beneficial for both sides.
Fang Pingying’s supermarket has already reached a certain level, with her and Uncle Zeng’s abilities they certainly have the capacity to open another supermarket, and conveniently Liu Fengsheng’s supermarket is already open, though currently sowhat chaotic inside, but with a little organization, it can be back on track quickly, which would save them a lot of work in re-opening a supermarket.
If Fang Pingying insists on refusing, then use the fact that when she needed money before, their family helped out, to ask her to repay this debt of gratitude.
Mrs. Liu actually has a sowhat similar temperant to Liu Fengsheng, cares about reputation, is unwilling to easily bow to others, and furthermore, to people not in the sa class as her, she feels a sort of disdain.
The last ti, she treated Fang Pingying so kindly, it was thinking Fang Pingying would be together with Liu Fengsheng, and Liu Fengsheng being a divorced man, if to remarry, marrying soone like Fang Pingying, good-looking, young, and with a small business, would be ideal.
And these years, because of her husband’s position, there are plenty of people flattering and currying favor with her, now her husband wants her to bow her head to seek help from others, which she truly is unwilling to do in her heart.
Especially Fang Pingying, in her opinion, is just lucky to have made so money, she is not from a prestigious family, with no good family background, from the countryside, full of vulgarity, why should she bow her head to her?
Unfortunately, because of her husband’s command, she must go.
So, one afternoon over the weekend, Mrs. Liu planned to take Tingting to Fang Pingying’s ho.
Of course, the excuse given to Tingting was that her grandmother was taking her to see Sister Fang, since Tingting is about to move up to high school, her study is getting busier, plus the relationship between Liu Fengsheng and Fang Pingying, and Fang Pingying’s family has relocated sowhere else, she hasn’t seen Fang Pingying in a long ti, now that she hears she can visit Fang Pingying, Tingting is quite happy.
However, just as the two were about to leave, a guest arrived at the house.
The guest was Mr. Liu’s sister, who seed nicely dressed, the material of the clothes seed quite decent, but upon closer inspection, the style appeared sowhat outdated, and there was a strong sll of mothballs, indicating these clothes aren’t worn often.
But the woman’s looks were exceptionally striking, despite appearing to be no longer young, her delicate features, fair skin, and tall stature couldn’t be hidden, showing she was absolutely a beauty in her youth.
Even though ti has left traces on her, if she were to dress up now, her beauty would still be evident.
The woman had stood at the doorway for a while, hesitating about whether to enter the room, upon seeing the door open, and viewing Mrs. Liu and Tingting, she appeared startled, then looking sowhat awkward, smiled at Mrs. Liu and quietly said, "Sister-in-law, Tingting, are you heading out?"
Tingting was quite happy upon seeing the visitor, imdiately stepped out, grabbed the woman’s hand, smiling as she pulled her inside, "Auntie has co, co inside and sit."
The woman was about to follow Tingting inside, but Mrs. Liu frowned and said to Tingting, "Tingting, you go inside first, I’ll call you when I’m leaving."
Seeing her grandmother’s poor expression, Tingting obediently agreed, and went back inside.
After Tingting entered, the woman seed uncertain about whether to follow inside, standing at the doorway, silent but visibly awkward.
Mrs. Liu glanced at her, and with a rather sarcastic tone said, "So, Taotao, are you here to borrow money again?"
The woman called Taotao turned pale but didn’t answer.
Mrs. Liu snorted, replying impatiently, "Speak, how much do you need, if it’s not a large sum, I’ll just give it to you, no need to bother going inside, besides your brother has troubles recently, no ti to deal with your family’s sses."
Mrs. Liu’s statent essentially ant Taotao wasn’t even allowed into the house, dealing with the issue directly at the door.
This attitude made Taotao quite uncomfortable, she frowned, and said, "Sister-in-law, you..."
Mrs. Liu glanced at her, extrely displeased with Taotao’s attitude, simply pretended to leave, "If you don’t need money, then I’m heading out."
"Sister-in-law, I do." Taotao bit her lip and said a number, "I want US$ 500."
"US$ 500?" Mrs. Liu seed startled, starting to scold Taotao, "Quite audacious, usually it’s asking for tens and tens, now suddenly asking for US$ 500, you really think our family is running a bank."
Taotao’s expression was quite embarrassed upon hearing that, but compelled by circumstances, she explained, "No, sister-in-law, it’s because our Xiao Wei truly has encountered a problem this ti, and needs money."
"Huh, when hasn’t your Xiao Wei caused trouble that requires money?" Mrs. Liu glared at Taotao, said angrily, "Think about how much money you’ve asked us for over the years, have we ever held it against you?"
Seeing Mrs. Liu’s attitude, Taotao was afraid Mrs. Liu would refuse to give money, she promptly knelt down begging Mrs. Liu, "Sister-in-law, I know it’s thanks to your care over the years for our family, if there’s any need in the future for to repay, I will without complaint, I’ll repay you like an ox or a horse, but please, help one more ti, Xiao Wei has done wrong and is detained, if I don’t bring money, Xiao Wei will be beaten to death."
