Chapter 34
When Chu An heard this, he shook his head, a smile appearing at the corners of his lips. Then, he took out various studying materials from his bag.
Wang Ming and Li Xiang asked, “What are you doing? Why are you starting to study?”
“I want to get into a good university.” After Chu An said this, he buried his head in his books.
The car continued onwards, and the scenery in front of them transformed from flashing lights to boundless fields. Chen Li sat in the backseat of the car, her thoughts running wild. However, she simply stared out the window in a daze.
She was thinking that this may be the last time she would be in a car.
The car drove into the countryside, and the villagers came out one after another to watch.
The car slowly arrived at the innermost part of the village. There was a very small masonry house, and a man and woman walked out of the house.
Immediately afterwards, Chen Li, who was covered with injuries, walked down from the car!
“Li Li!” The woman hurriedly ran over and hugged Chen Li, looking her over, from top to bottom. “Who bullied you? How did you become like this? Tell Mom, Mom will stand up for you!”
Chen Li’s father’s face was also flushed red with anger. He directly leaned against the window of the car and scolded those people who were sitting inside.
At this moment, the director slowly alighted from the car and pulled Chen Li’s father away.
“Please calm down. Here, take a look for yourself.” That was the video from before and after Aunty Wang’s accident.
“As you can see, it was your daughter who broke the cup, causing an old woman to lose her life. The family of the old woman was very angry, and it was because of this that your daughter was slightly injured,” the director said expressionlessly. “The family demands compensation, and taking into account your family’s circumstances, they are only asking for 200,000.”
Chen Li’s father knelt down in an instant, and begged the director, “Director, please, this matter must not spread out…”
“The show has already aired, and everyone has seen it. Hurry up and return the money. Otherwise, they will be suing Chen Li.” After the director’s cold words fell, the car drove off.
“Dad… have I gotten into trouble?” Chen Li hid in her mother’s embrace, not daring to look at her father.
Her father tried his best to calm his emotions, and comforted her, “How could that be? It is only 200,000. You see, we have had a good harvest of crops this year, so 200,000 would soon be repaid.”
The family of three, clinging to each other, went into the small house.
Chen Li had been hiding in her room all this while.
But in the following few days, a great many people gradually came to the Chens’ house. All Chen Li could hear was the apologetic laughter of her parents. contemporary romance
The crops had ripened, and were piled up in the warehouse. They had been piled up for several days in a row, yet the stock did not look like they had decreased in the slightest.
However, it seemed like there was less and less food to eat at home.
Chen Li noticed that her parents seemed to have rarely come home recently. They were always out, and every time they went out, they would bring back a black pouch.
Chen Li knew that this was filled with money, a lot of money.
However, not a single thing in the warehouse had been sold, so where had the money come from?
Their neighbors seemed to have distanced themselves from them considerably.
At night, she would often hear her parents speak softly. Once, when she listened closely, it was her father who was counting how much money he was still short of.
“We’ve already borrowed more than 50,000,” her mother said.
“Those people are not willing to buy our products. A few days ago, the few bosses that have been buying our crops have all terminated their contracts,” her father said, which was followed by a heavy sigh.
There was a long silence.
“Are you going tomorrow?” the female voice asked in a trembling voice.
“En,” the male voice replied, “It’s fine.”
That was the tenth day after Chen Li’s incident. After that night, she did not see her fatheragain.
She had asked her mother before, and every time, her mother would say that her father had gone to a large city to work and earn money, and would return with the money in a few days’ time.
Chen Li was no longer a child, so she naturally didn’t believe her.
However, her father had really returned after a few days. He was carrying a bag filled with money in his hands.
Chen Li saw an ugly scar on her father’s waist. Her parents told her not to be afraid and that everything was getting better.
But what about after this money was given to those people? In the few days that she had returned home, her parents had visibly aged considerably.
The sack that contained 50,000 yuan was returned, and the attitude of the neighbors towards them improved slightly.
Every night, Chen Li would feel very cold. She was thinking, if she had not participated in this “killer show”, that would have been great.
