Bab 34: Robbery (2)
Editor: Henyee Translations
Upon hearing that he could not earn money, Wen Zaitian's eyes widened. "Yueyue, don't worry. I won't even tell my parents even if I find out about the bingfen formula."
Wen Zaitian was indeed a relative valued by Yue Yan. His character was indeed unquestionable. Yue Yan chose him because she valued his character. Later on, he was unmoved even when someone spent money to buy the formula from him.
He could get a commission of 20 yuan if he sold it for 100 yuan, and 200 yuan in 10 days. This was still the guarantee. Yue Yan had given him a chance to earn money, so it was definitely impossible for him to betray his cousin.
Wen Zaitian's mind was clear when he returned home. He had the confidentiality agreement Yue Yan had given him in his pocket. He signed a total of two copies, one for each party.
He started to be timid when he reached the door of his house. If his father was going to slap him, could he show mercy on account of his future younger brother or sister?
He heard voices when he reached the central hall.
He walked in and found that the entire family was present, discussing how to ask for his salary today.
Of course, his salary had to be returned to him. His mother sat at the entrance of Delicious Restaurant with a big belly and made a scene, forcing Delicious Restaurant to call the police to settle it.
The police arrived to understand the situation. Once they heard that Delicious Restaurant was in arrears for six years, the boss and lady boss of Delicious Restaurant were arrested.
Delicious Restaurant did not expect their family to think of this trick. In addition, the police investigation was indeed true. The surrounding restaurants could not stand Delicious Restaurant and took the opportunity to step on it. It confirmed that Wen Zaitian had indeed worked at Delicious Restaurant for a few years in a row. In the end, Delicious Restaurant compensated the Wen Family 300 yuan.
Wen Zaitian's heart ached when he heard that. It was such a hot afternoon, and his mother had to ask for his salary while pregnant. She was even planning to save this money for him to marry a wife.
He was really useless. He was already an adult, yet he still needed his family to step in when something happened.
Wen Zaitian choked. "Mom, I don't want this money. Keep it."
Everyone in the room looked over. Zhao Shuqin glared at him.
"Child, what's the use of giving me this money? You're almost 20 years old. It's time for you to get married!"
Wen Zaitian smiled bitterly. "I won't ask you for money when I get married. I agreed to help Yueyue's family and get paid."
Wen Qiangguo suddenly said, "It's not easy for your cousin's family. Take the money if your mother gives it to you."
Wen Zaitian gritted his teeth and took out the contract. "This is the contract I signed with Yueyue. It's written in the contract. I have an official job in the future."
Third Uncle took the contract and his face turned ashen after reading it.
"Is this how you help your cousin's family? How dare you take 20% of the profits!"
Wen Qiangguo raised his hand to hit him. He was even unbuckling his belt with one hand.
Wen Zaitian panicked. "Dad, listen to me! The contract was drafted by Yueyue. I rejected it. Yueyue said that I treated her as an outsider and analyzed a lot of things for me. I signed it because I felt that what she said made sense!"
The old lady's heart ached for her grandson, so she stopped her eldest son.
"Don't be in a hurry to hit him. Let's ask clearly. Yue Yan is very smart. Hongyu came over yesterday because Yue Yan was worried that your son would take things too hard."
With the old lady's persuasion, Wen Zaitian stammered and explained the whole story.
The family was silent for a while. Yueyue was a sensible child. She did not forget about her relatives when her family was earning money.
The old lady slammed the table. "Listen, I don't have to teach you how to treat Yueyue in the future! As uncles and aunts, don't let your niece worry about you."
The ones who were most grateful to Yue Yan were her eldest uncle, Wen Qiangguo and his family. Zhao Shuqin had earned some pocket money from making handmade hair accessories while being pregnant. Although it was not much, it could still supplement the family's income. This was originally the Yue Family's business.
Now that there was a problem with her son's work, Yueyue brought her son to earn money without hesitation. It was even a huge sum of money.
Their family wished they could carry gifts to the Yue Family to thank them now. Fortunately, they were persuaded and stopped by Second Brother and Third Brother's families.
Although Wen Shengguo and Wen Zhiguo's family were envious, their children either had jobs or were studying. Moreover, they were too embarrassed to trouble Yue Yan. They could only remember the Yue Family's kindness in their hearts.
The next morning, Yue Yan woke up a little late. She had a nightmare the entire night. She completely forgot that she had been crying when she woke up.
She looked in the mirror and realized that she was not in a good state of mind. It seemed that she was affected by the nightmare.
When Yue Yan arrived at school, the teacher informed them at the last minute that the monthly exam would be held today. She did not panic at all.
The entire class was in an uproar when Wang Hecui and Cao Wenkai came to the classroom together.
No matter what era it was, puppy love was not encouraged. However, no matter what era it was, there would always be boys and girls who could not resist it.
When Yue Yan went to carry the test papers, she heard gossip about a pair of star-crossed lovers when she passed by the corridor.
"There's really nothing between us. It's just that she threatens me with jumping off a building for no reason. My mother is also forcing me too." Cao Wenkai was speechless. His entire family had gone to the Wang family to apologize after Wang Hecui attempted to jump off a building.
Ever since then, Wang Hecui had been threatening him with jumping off a building.
Yesterday, Wang Hecui came to him after school and said that if he didn't go home with her, she would jump off the building after she reached home. Cao Wenkai had no choice but to fulfill her wish.
It was the same today. He bumped into Wang Hecui the moment he left the house. His aunt was behind him, so he could only pretend to be happy and go to school with Wang Hecui.
Cao Wenkai cut to the chase. "Little Yu, I know you've suffered. Can you give in for a while? I'm afraid she'll hurt you."
Su Yu said softly, "Wenkai, I don't feel aggrieved. There's a misunderstanding between Xiao Cui and me. I think as long as we talk things through, Little Cui won't pester you anymore."
Cao Wenkai felt terrible. He hated himself for Su Yu and hated himself for not being able to protect the woman he loved. Why did Auntie insist on letting him be with Wang Hecui?!
