Mom, don't listen to their nonsense, I just...
Before Ye Feng could finish, a sharp slap landed on his face. Liu i, tears in her eyes, looked at him incredulously. Xiao Feng, there's no one else here. Tell , what did you do with that 80,000 yuan?
Ye Feng struggled to speak, knowing he couldn't avoid the truth any longer. I... I invested it.
Did you make any profit?
I lost it... lost all of it, Ye Feng choked out.
All 80,000?
There's a few thousand left.
So, when you said you borrowed a few thousand for herbs before, it was actually for the 80,000 yuan you borrowed? Liu i narrowed her eyes.
Ye Feng nodded, unable to articulate his usual defenses in front of his mother.
What kind of investnt made you lost you so much?
I... hoarded ga equipnt, Ye Feng mumbled.
Ga equipnt? Did you use 80,000 yuan for ga equipnt? Liu i was in disbelief.
Another slap struck Ye Feng's face.
We'll discuss this with your father when we get ho. Now, pack up and let's go. Liu i was almost fainting with anger. Ye Feng didn't dare resist, fearing his actions might prematurely bring about the illness from his previous life.
From the other side of the glass, Lin Xiaowan pulled Su Lin's attention to Ye Feng's situation. Su Lin... Ye Feng's mother slapped him.
Su Lin nodded, I see it, Xiaowan.
Ye Feng's usual arrogance is gone. It's so satisfying to see. It's a pity Xiaoyu isn't here; she'd be thrilled, Lin Xiaowan said with a smile.
Su Lin agreed, Xiaoyu is still at the hospital with her dad. Xiaowan, I didn't know you had such a devilish side. After this, Ye Feng cant just walk away unscathed.
Lin Xiaowan justified her actions, It's for his own good. At 18, he's already capable of swindling 80,000 yuan. Imagine what he could do in college or in society. Telling his mom ensures he gets a proper lesson. It's a good thing for him.
You're right, Su Lin concurred.
As they sat down in the restaurant, Su Lin passed the nu to Lin Xiaowan, You choose, Xiaowan.
Her face lit up with excitent, Waitress, we'll have two of your specialty barbecues, and what other dishes do you have?
We have a variety of side dishes and appetizers along with our barbecue.
Then let's have a bit of everything.
Of course~!!!
Once the waitress left, Lin Xiaowan, still bubbling with excitent, asked, So, Su Lin, where shall we go this afternoon?
Su Lin was montarily stumped, I had planned to spend the day at the amusent park. Escape room in the morning, other attractions in the afternoon. But we left early, and I havent thought of where to go next.
Lin Xiaowan initially felt disappointed but then suggested, If we have nowhere to go this afternoon, lets visit Xiao Yus dad.
Su Lin shook his head, Xiaoyus dad is recuperating and preparing for surgery. Our visit wont be much help. We should rather call her and go out together this afternoon.
Lin Xiaowan looked at Su Lin suspiciously, Su Lin, are you hiding sothing?
Su Lin, surprised, replied, What are you thinking, Xiaowan? Do I look that obvious?
Lin Xiaowan shook her head, Not obvious, but I feel like youre up to sothing. Are you planning to buy sothing?
Su Lin shook his head again, Lets wait until we et Xiaoyu. Otherwise, Ill have to explain it twice, which is a bit troubleso.
Hmm, seems like its sothing big.
Lets enjoy our barbecue first, Su Lin suggested as their food arrived.
anwhile, Ye Feng was having a far less pleasant ti. Liu i drove him ho in an electric tricycle and urgently called his father, Ye Weimin, back from work.
What happened, wife? Why the urgency to call ho? Is business so good that you need help? Ye Weimin asked as he arrived.
Liu i, tears streaming down, pointed at Ye Feng and cried out, Ask your precious son what he did. Let him tell you.
Sensing the seriousness of the situation, Ye Weimin turned to Ye Feng, What happened?
I I dont know how to say it, Ye Feng stamred, his usual bravado gone in front of his father.
Liu i broke down, Do you know what your son did? He tricked Xiao Yu from the Xia family out of the 80,000 yuan they needed for a kidney transplant. Eighty thousand! Thats more than our two years salary. Your son
Ye Weimin was stunned. He couldnt believe his son had committed such an act.
It wasnt trickery, I borrowed it, Ye Feng insisted, trying to justify himself.
You still argue? Your classmates said you had no intention of returning it without a threat of police involvent. You need to discipline your son, Ye Weimin. Hes already swindling money at such a young age. What will he beco when he grows up?
Ye Weimin turned to his son, So, the 100,000 yuan you talked about for investing in stocks was a lie? The inside information was also fake? You used it to pay back the borrowed money, didnt you?
I
Answer , yes or no! Ye Weimin roared.
Yes
Still making excuses now? You show no remorse! Ye Weimin exclaid.
Please, Dad, I
Another slap followed.
Old Ye, dont use your hand, use the rolling pin, Liu i suggested, producing the household implent.
Ye Feng panicked as his father took the rolling pin, Dad Dad
Aow~!!! ca Ye Fengs cry of pain.
