Chapter 159 - 159: Two Heads of Speech
Xu Wenping wanted to interrupt, but then he smiled and lowered his head. Actually, it didn’t matter to him whether he wanted more than 10,000 yuan.
From this point of view, Han Xiaoxia was timid, and there was a deep kindness in her timidity. Perhaps that small hair salon was indeed not very valuable, and it looked like a mess. After tidying it up, it might not be bad.
However, this number might just make up for her losses. She did not ask for a single cent.
“I’ll transfer it to you!”
Old Zhang’s face turned pale.
Han Xiaoxia happily accepted the cash.
Xu Wenping looked at Old Zhang’s ugly expression and took another step forward, scaring Old Zhang so much that he retreated slightly. Xu Wenping then smiled and said, “Don’t be angry. You can treat my Second Uncle to a meal later. Xiangshan County isn’t big, so there’s a lot of pressure. Xiaoxia is easy to talk to, but I’m not.”
Old Zhang’s face turned pale.
He couldn’t figure out Xu Wenping’s background, but he knew Xu Shidong very well. Perhaps Xu Shidong did have some face in Xiangshan County. That was a few years ago, when the rule of law was not perfect, and Xu Shidong could rely on some business to earn some money.
Now, Xu Shidong’s company was basically useless, and his status was naturally declining.
However, with Old Zhang’s eyes, Xu Wenping was much stronger than Xu Shidong.
Therefore, he could only nod his head lightly.
Han Xiaoxia’s expression was also a little ugly. Xu Wenping thanked his Second Uncle, then took Han Xiaoxia’s hand and went out.
As they left, Han Xiaoxia said with a weak expression, “Xu Wenping… Sorry, this is my first time experiencing something like this.”
Xu Wenping raised his eyebrows and smiled. “What are you saying sorry for?”
“I know… You think I was too honest just now?”
“Isn’t kindness a good quality?”
As soon as Xu Wenping finished speaking, Han Xiaoxia felt her head being touched. She looked up and saw Xu Wenping’s sunny and kind face. She couldn’t help but be a little absent-minded, and her face turned slightly red.
“We are now…”
Xu Wenping thought about it for a while and said, “I’ll go back and help you tidy up the hair salon first. After that, we’ll have a good dinner to celebrate. How about that?”
“Good!”
Xu Wenping rode the motorcycle and drove Han Xiaoxia back. On the way, Han Xiaoxia hugged Xu Wenping’s waist even tighter. If Xu Wenping looked back, he would see that the girl’s eyes were filled with tears and she looked a little wronged.
Back in town, Han Xiaoxia told her father about the situation. Uncle Han immediately contacted for the doors and windows, while Xu Wenping and Han Xiaoxia tidied up the mess inside.
At first, they were still fighting and the atmosphere was unusually harmonious. However, after all the pieces were cleaned up and the entire room was empty, Han Xiaoxia suddenly sat on the ground and cried.
As soon as Xu Wenping leaned over, Han Xiaoxia hugged him tightly.
After a long time, she wiped her tears away.
They started cleaning up at noon. As the sun set, Xu Wenping said softly, “Let’s go! Go and eat something first. The rest…”
Before Xu Wenping could finish, Han Xiaoxia’s face wavered and her eyes reddened. She smiled cutely and said, “What delicious food? Are you treating?”
Then, she said, “Let’s go on a motorcycle! It’s too expensive to take a taxi.”
“Won’t it be cold at night?”
“I have thick clothes.”
Thus, the two of them turned around and went from town to Xiangshan County again. Han Xiaoxia was probably hungry as she wolfed down her food. As she ate, she asked, “Is Jin Hai City fun? Will there be a lot of beautiful women in a place full of tall buildings?”
It seemed like a casual question, but Xu Wenping’s eyes lit up. He understood that Han Xiaoxia was already somewhat interested in following him to Jin Hai City.
“Of course it’s more prosperous than Xiangshan County. Is there anything fun? I don’t know either… Actually, 1 don’t usually play,” Xu Wenping answered.
Han Xiaoxia nodded and grinned, “With this 80,000 yuan and some of my savings, my house in Xiangshan County should be enough for renovation and furniture. Xu Wenping… I want to go to the city with you.”
“Can you help me open a hair salon?”
Xu Wenping nodded like he was pounding garlic. “Of course. Whatever you want to do, I will definitely support you.”
Han Xiaoxia’s expression flickered for a moment before she finally put down her chopsticks and smiled. “Xu Wenping, actually… I’ve already slept with you.”
Xu Wenping’s body trembled slightly.
Seeing Han Xiaoxia’s rosy face, Xu Wenping pretended to dodge and said in surprise, “What are you talking about… When did this happen? This…”
“…Let’s go!”
Han Xiaoxia dragged Xu Wenping out of the restaurant. The two of them rode the motorcycle and stopped in front of the hotel again. Han Xiaoxia’s expression was strange, and Xu Wenping was pondering.
The two of them entered.
Just five minutes after the two of them entered the hotel, a short-haired beauty wearing sunglasses walked in. She clenched her pink fists and seemed a little angry. She slapped the bank card at the front desk of the hotel and said, “Get a room next to the two people who just went in.”
“Uh… Alright!”
Zhang Yalong’s head had never been so low in the tavern in the night.
Old Zhang crossed his legs and held a flower between his fingers. He was different from Xu Shidong. Xu Shidong had a little sister in his arms. Old Zhang no longer had such vulgar interests.
As he dusted off the cigarette ash, Old Zhang said, “Shidong… Now that the whole set has been completed, you should at least tell your brother about your nephew, right?”
“Didn’t I tell you? I didn’t know.”
Xu Shidong shrugged and said, “Old Zhang, from the looks of it, our generation can’t keep up with the times. It’s not that I’m criticizing you, but you just have to give me face and let it go. Now you feel good, right?”
“You…”
Seeing Old Zhang’s expression darken, Xu Shidong quickly waved his hand and said, “Calm down, calm down… Old Zhang, I know that you are a businessman, different from me. If you plan to rely on my nephew to go to Jin Hai City to do business, I can help you pull strings.”
“As for his strength, let me describe it to you. How about it?”
Old Zhang frowned slightly and nodded.
“Two days ago, my nephew came back, so I went to the old man’s place for a drink.” Xu Shidong smiled. “After all, we have a good relationship. My nephew also respects me, so he gave me some filial piety.”
“How much do you think?”
Old Zhang’s eyes immediately lit up. Businessmen loved to talk about money.
Xu Shidong extended five fingers.
“Fifty?”
“Haha!”
Xu Shidong immediately showed a disdainful expression. He took out a peanut and fed it to his mouth. As he chewed, he said, “How can you be considered a boss?”
“Let me tell you, it’s not 50, it’s 5,000!”
