Chapter 484 - 484: Left With No Choice, I Can Only Agree
In the end, Xu Wenping had no choice but to agree.
“Wenping, Mom knows that you’ve suffered all these years!”
Xu Wenping’s father sat on the sofa and sighed.
“Dad, don’t say that. This is what we should do!” Xu Wenping replied.
Xu Wenping’s father said, “Wenping, you’ve been tired for more than half a year. Take advantage of the weekend to find a job. Mom will help you!”
“En!”
Xu Wenping nodded and didn’t say anything else.
“Alright, you should rest first. I’ll go back and make some food. You can eat later!”
“Alright!”
Xu Wenping stood up and walked to the second floor.
The night passed quickly. In the blink of an eye, it was Saturday. Xu Wenping came to the company.
After arriving at the company, he handed his bag to the security guard and then went to Xu Wenting’s office. He said, “Wenting, 1 have to go overseas for a few days tomorrow morning, so 1 want to take a day off from you today. I don’t want anything to happen overseas, so 1 want to take a day off. I wonder if you agree?”
Xu Wenting immediately smiled and replied, “Of course 1 agree! You haven’t rested for such a long time. It’s not a bad idea to go on a trip today. How about this? When you come back, you can start work directly. I believe you’ll definitely be competent!”
“Alright, thank you. I’ll go back to the office first!”
“En!”
After Xu Wenping returned to his office, he began to pack his things and prepare to leave.
At this moment, Xu Wenping’s phone suddenly rang.
Looking at the name displayed on the screen, Xu Wenping was stunned.
“Could it be… Is it a call from Qianxue?”
Thinking of this, Xu Wenping hurriedly pressed the answer button. “Hello, Qianxue, it’s me!”
“Hello, Wenping, are you going on a business trip today?” Li Yufen’s voice came from the other end of the phone.
“Yes, Mom, what’s the matter?” Xu Wenping asked.
“Your friend Qianying’s sister, Qianxue, wants to have a meal with you,” Li Yufen said. “I wonder if you’d be willing?”
“Hmm? She wants to ask me out? Why is she looking for me?” Xu Wenping asked with a frown.
“I don’t know,” Li Yufen said. “She just said that she has something important to discuss with you!”
“Okay, I got it. I’ll go now!”
After hanging up the phone, Xu Wenping immediately left the office.
Xu Wenping came to Qianxue’s office and saw that Qianxue was buried in the paperwork. He said, “Qianxue, I want to ask you for a favor?”
Hearing Xu Wenping’s words, Qianxue raised her head and looked at Xu Wenping. Then, she asked, “Wenping, if you have something to say, just say it. You don’t have to be so polite!”
“Qianxue, can you help me rent a house in the city? 1 plan to rent a
one-bedroom apartment in the city, but my tuition and accommodation fees are relatively high. I hope you can recommend a better house for me,” Xu Wenping said.
“Renting a good house?”
Qianxue was slightly stunned when she heard that.
“Yeah, to tell you the truth, I’m preparing to go to the city to look for a house to live in. Can you recommend me a set? 1’11 definitely pay you for my tuition,” Xu Wenping quickly explained.
Qianxue was stunned when she heard Xu Wenping’s words.
“This…”
Xu Wenping saw that Qianxue seemed to hesitate and quickly said, “Qianxue, please, just introduce me to a house!”
“Alright, wait a minute. I’ll make a call and ask!”
“Then I’m troubling you!”
“En!”
Soon, Qianxue ended the call. She said to Xu Wenping, “Okay, I’ve already asked. There are two houses nearby, both of which cost more than 5 million yuan. Moreover, the price is quite reasonable. I’ll take you to have a look.”
Hearing Qianxue’s words, Xu Wenping’s face lit up with joy.
“Thank you so much!”
“It’s fine. Anyway, those two houses are my cousin’s property. He’s not in the city now, so that place is empty. However, my cousin-in-law isn’t home now, so those two houses belong to me temporarily,” Qianxue explained.
“Oh, 1 see. Then I’ll have to trouble Qianxue!” Xu Wenping said.
“Don’t be so polite. We’re friends. It’s only right for us to take care of each other!”
“Thank you, Qianxue. By the way, Qianxue, where are you staying now?”
“No need, I can take the car myself.”
“Alright!”
“En!”
After saying that, Qianxue picked up her backpack and walked out of Xu Wenping’s company.
“Qianxue, where do you live now?” Xu Wenping asked as they walked.
“Oh, I live in a villa area in the new town area now.”
“New town area? What is that place?”
“It’s a high-end villa area. It’s a house that my cousin-in-law bought for me. However, my cousin-in-law also bought a house there!”
“Oh!” Xu Wenping nodded.
“By the way, Wenping, my cousin-in-law will bring her boyfriend home for dinner tonight, so you should come along. My cousin has a very strange temper, so don’t be afraid of him!” Qianxue suddenly reminded Xu Wenping.
Xu Wenping nodded and replied casually, “Don’t worry, I’m not afraid of him.”
“Oh right, there’s one more thing!” Qianxue continued.
“What is it?”
“Actually, our family knows each other. My cousin-in-law lives in the villa area in the new town area!”
“What? Someone I know?” Xu Wenping was stunned.
“That’s right!” Qianxue nodded and said, “My cousin-in-law’s current husband is the deputy mayor of your city!”
“What?”
Hearing Qianxue’s news, Xu Wenping’s expression immediately became extremely awkward. He did not expect that he would actually know such a rich leader in the city.
Looking at Xu Wenping’s expression, Qianxue smiled and said, “What’s wrong? Did my words scare you?”
Xu Wenping nodded awkwardly and said, “No, why would 1 be scared by you?”
Xu Wenping and Qianxue chatted for a while before heading to the villa in the new town area.
Xu Wenping pressed the doorbell and the door opened.
The person who opened the door was the girl Xu Wenping was looking for. Her name was Lin Wan’er, and she was the only person Xu Wenping knew in the city.
When he saw Lin Wan’er, Xu Wenping smiled and said, “Wan’er, what a coincidence. You’re here too!”
“En, Wenping, who are you looking for?” Lin Wan’er asked curiously as she opened the door.
“Oh, we’re looking for Qianxue’s cousin. Are they inside? “Xu Wenping asked.
Hearing Xu Wenping’s words, Lin Wan’er was slightly startled. Then she looked at Qianxue behind him.
“Wenping, let’s talk inside!” Lin Wan’er said.
“Alright!”
After entering the house, Lin Wan’er poured two cups of tea and said to Xu Wenping, “Wenping, you just told me on the phone that you wanted to find a house to live in. Is it because you work in the city?”
“En!” Xu Wenping nodded.
Lin Wan’er nodded and then said, “1 just talked to my dad. He asked me to ask his friend if he could give you my cousin’s house. After all, it’s his property. However, it’s quite far from here, and it’s not very convenient. What do you think?”
“I see. Thank you so much!” Xu Wenping said excitedly.
Although he didn’t want to go there, he couldn’t refuse. He could only bite the bullet and agree.
“However, Wenping, my father is not here during this period of time, so you must not run around. If you encounter any danger, I won’t be able to explain it!” Lin Wan’er said again.
“En, I understand!”
“Oh right, if you’re free these few days, come and accompany me!”
“Okay, no problem. After I’m done with my matters here, I’ll go and play with you!”
“En, then it’s settled!”
