Knowing that his mother Wang Hongmei was back, Luo Bing also walked out of the room.
Wang Hongmei glanced at her daughter, curled her lips and said: "This Xue Chen is so useless. It's okay if he doesn't give me face. I specifically said that Xiaobing also hopes that the two of them can reconcile, but he is so indifferent,
He just didn't agree, but when he mentioned money, he immediately changed his mind. Xiaobing, look, this Xue Chen doesn't have you in his heart anymore. He only has money in his heart. You have to recognize it. Even if he gets rich, don't be with him anymore.
He contacted him, you know?"
Luo Bing didn't care whether Xue Chen and Wang Yan reconciled, but when his mother said that Xue Chen didn't change his mind because of his own wishes, but changed his mind because of money, his heart stung slightly. Although his mother said
Just using my own guise.
She suddenly felt lost and a little disappointed. In her opinion, if they had fallen in love in college, Xue Chen would have been obedient to her. But now the relationship between the two has changed, Xue Chen's identity has changed, and society has changed.
If your status has changed, your heart must have changed too, right?
Wang Hongmei knew that it was impossible to secretly hide the compensation Wang Yan paid to Xue Chen, but if the matter came to pass, Wang Yan would also promise to thank her heavily. It would have to be several thousand yuan, and it would still make the other party owe her a big favor.
, so I told Wang Yan the matter as soon as possible.
When Wang Yan heard that 200,000 yuan was offered, he immediately hesitated, feeling that it was a bit beyond his psychological endurance, so he called Li Changfu and Yang Zhuang to discuss it together.
When Li Changfu heard that it was 200,000 yuan, he scolded Wang Yan. In his opinion, keeping his position as director and getting the safety of the teahouse was even one million, so he had to spend it!
Wang Yan originally wanted to ask Li Changfu to contribute part of the money, but seeing Li Changfu's cold expression, he still didn't say anything. However, the two hundred thousand yuan could not be withdrawn from the teahouse's account, so he had no choice but to use his own private money to avoid disaster.
It was not enough, so I had to ask some friends to borrow it.
After collecting 200,000 yuan, Wang Yan came to Luo Bing's home again.
Because she failed to benefit from Xue Chen, Wang Hongmei did not want to see Xue Chen again: "Wang Yan, just give the money to Xue Chen yourself."
Wang Yan begged: "Auntie, please help me one more time. I really don't want to see Xue Chen now. By the way, tell him that Director Li and I will go and apologize soon."
He really couldn't do it to hand over 200,000 yuan to Xue Chen in person, and it would be even more uncomfortable than killing him.
When Wang Yan handed over another envelope saying thank you, Wang Hongmei reluctantly agreed.
After Wang Yan left, she opened the envelope and saw five thousand yuan inside, which made Wang Hongmei feel better. When Luo Bing came home from get off work, she handed over the bank card Wang Yan had brought: "Xiao Bing, you Go give the 200,000 yuan to Xue Chen, and make it clear to her by the way that she won’t pester you anymore."
"Mom, Xue Chen has never pestered me. I won't go to see him off. You can go to him." Luo Bing refused.
"Xue Chen specifically told Wang Yan at that time that if Wang Yan agreed, he would send it to you. I think he was showing off. He wanted you to see that he was promising now and that he was capable and could easily get the second prize.
One hundred thousand, Xiaobing, you must go, and tell him clearly by the way, and don't contact people like him again in the future." Wang Hongmei said with flying lips, disdainfully.
"Your mother is right, draw a clear line with him. Don't think that he can show off his power to our family when he is rich. People are poor and have short ambitions. If they are promising, they will find nothing. Sooner or later, they will fall off." Sitting on the sofa.
Luo Hai echoed.
He also didn't want to see Xue Chen again, because the better Xue Chen got along, the greater the irony for what he thought was the right decision in the first place, and the less happy he felt.
After Luo Bing heard what her parents said, her heart hurt again. She thought for a moment and silently took the bank card.
After contacting Xue Chen, Luo Bing agreed on a place to meet the next day, which was a cold drink shop called Donuts.
Xue Chen, who was on the other side of the phone, was slightly surprised when he heard this name, because he remembered that the two of them became boyfriend and girlfriend in this cold drink shop when they were in college.
Luo Bing was sitting in the booth of the cold drink shop, holding her bank card in her hand, with a hint of sadness in her eyes. Although she had broken up with Xue Chen, she suddenly knew from her mother's mouth that Xue Chen's heart had changed.
It still hurt. She didn't know why she chose to meet in this place. Did she want to start and end completely in the same place?
"Xiao Bing, what are you thinking about?" Just when Luo Bing was lost in thought, Xue Chen was already sitting opposite her with a smile on his face.
"You're here." Luo Bing looked up at Xue Chen.
Xue Chen looked at Luo Bing and vaguely felt that something was wrong with her mood, but he didn't know what was going on.
Luo Bing smoothed the broken hair around her ears, glanced at the layout of the cold drink shop, and sighed slightly: "Do you still remember this cold drink shop?"
Xue Chen also took a look at the cold drink shop, nodded, and said seriously: "Of course I remember it, how could I forget it? I will never forget it even for the rest of my life."
Looking at this cold drink shop, Xue Chen's heart suddenly surged. This was the place where he and Luo Bing officially confirmed their relationship as boyfriend and girlfriend. He would always remember how excited and excited he was that day.
"Yeah?"
Luo Bing couldn't tell how he felt. At the same time, he put the bank card in his hand on the table and pushed it in front of Xue Chen, "This is the 200,000 yuan Wang Yan compensated you."
Xue Chen glanced at it, but instead of putting it in his pocket, he pushed it back.
Luo Bing was slightly startled: "Xue Chen, what are you doing?"
"For you." Xue Chen said with a smile.
"Give it to me?" Luo Bing was surprised.
Xue Chen narrowed his eyes, and for a moment, a very complicated expression appeared on his face, and he said: "When we first became friends, I had no money, and I never bought you a decent gift. I never bought you a decent gift.
I have never bought better clothes or nice jewelry. I have always felt guilty. I also promised you that I will compensate you when I make money in the future. Although we have broken up, this promise will not
Change, that’s what I decided from the beginning, that’s why I told Auntie to let you come over.”
After hearing what Xue Chen said, Luo Bing's heart suddenly twitched, and he lowered his head deeply. Huge waves suddenly arose in his heart: "He actually planned to give me the money..."
She heard her mother say that Xue Chen only had money in his eyes now, and that Xue Chen asked her to come in person because he wanted to show off his current status and means to her, and she almost believed it.
But at this moment, she knew that her parents were wrong, and so was she. They had completely misunderstood Xue Chen.
For a moment, she felt extremely guilty in her heart. At this moment, she even wanted to get up and throw herself into Xue Chen's arms, not because of this bank card or the money, but because she was extremely moved in her heart.
"He remembers his past promises, but I'm doubting him."
Luo Bing was both touched by Xue Chen's behavior and felt guilty for his misunderstanding. He had mixed feelings and his eyes became sour, as if tears were about to flow out.
"Xue Chen, thank you. You still remember your promise to me, but I can't accept it. You should take it back." Luo Bing declined politely and pushed the bank card back to Xue Chen.
But Xue Chen pushed it back and said with a smile: "Since I promised you, I will fulfill this promise. You can accept it, but don't let your uncles and aunts know, otherwise it will be treated like lucky money when you were a child.
Confiscated.”
Luo Bing chuckled at Xue Chen's words, but she thought that it was true. If she accepted the money and her parents found out, then the money would definitely be taken away in the end.
"No, Xue Chen, let me take it back. I won't accept it. I want you to owe me a promise forever." Luo Bing suddenly raised his head, looked directly at Xue Chen with shining eyes, and picked up the bank card.
, and put it into Xue Chen’s hand.
Xue Chen's eyes moved slightly and looked at Luo Bing.
The two looked at each other for a long time.
"Xue Chen, let's go for a walk." Luo Bing suggested.
Naturally, Xue Chen would not refuse. After the two left the cold drink shop, they walked side by side along the sidewalk, as if they had returned to the past at this moment.
After being sent home by Xue Chen, Luo Bing went upstairs and opened the door while humming a song. She had not been in such a happy mood for a long time.
Wang Hongmei and Luo Hai were sitting in the living room watching TV series. When they saw their daughter coming back, Wang Hongmei turned around and asked, "Did you give that kid your bank card?"
"Yeah." Luo Bing replied.
"snort."
Wang Hongmei felt unhappy. Although she also got a benefit of five thousand yuan, she was very dissatisfied. She didn't get the one hundred thousand yuan she had calculated. "I guess that kid must have been extremely happy when he saw the bank card.
Put it away without saying a word, right? Xiaobing, let me tell you, you should never contact such a person in the future. Through this incident, you should also understand his true nature."
"Yes, I did identify him." Luo Bing responded casually with warmth in his eyes, and walked back to his room without any further explanation.
The day after giving away 200,000 yuan, Wang Yan also called Xue Chen and said that he would hold a banquet at the Jinjue Hotel in the evening, invite Xue Chen and Xia Chenghong to attend, and apologize to them.
Xue Chen also contacted Xia Chenghong and informed him of the matter, but Xia Chenghong told him that he had an important reception banquet to attend in the evening and asked Xue Chen to go by himself to see if the three people really apologized sincerely and whether they would continue to pursue the three people.
Personally, it is up to Xue Chen to decide.
In order to show their sincerity, Wang Yan and Li Changfu specially booked a luxurious private room and also booked a very high-end banquet. They came to the hotel early to wait, and Yang Zhuang also came with them. The three of them sat in the private room.
They all looked unhappy and helpless.
"Oh, I hope this matter can be settled today." Yang Zhuang sighed. (To be continued)
