Rebirth of a Village Girl-Chapter 1007 - 240: Super Protective_6
Chapter 1007: 240: Super Protective_6
Ni Yang turned his head to Xiaozhou, "Are you sure you can beat me?"
Xiaozhou: "That’s a personal attack! Though I can’t beat you, I can watch the money for you while you’re fighting!"
"Let’s go, let’s go," Ni Yang laughed, "After the money is deposited, I’ll treat you to a meal."
"Great!" Xiaozhou followed up, "But you really trust me to carry the money for you? Aren’t you afraid I’ll run off with it?"
Ni Yang raised an eyebrow slightly, "We’re all brothers, what’s there to fear?"
The phrase "We’re all brothers" inexplicably made Xiaozhou very happy!
Being trusted by someone felt really good!
"Big Brother Yang, now that you’ve made so much money, remember to treat me to a big meal! I want to go to Guose Tianxiang to eat!"
With a casual wave of his hand, Ni Yang said generously, "Sure, no problem."
"Do you have a membership card?" asked Xiaozhou.
"Yeah," Ni Yang nodded, "I not only have a membership card, but I can also give you one."
"Really?" Xiaozhou was so thrilled he could almost fly!
Big Brother Yang was true to his name!
His connections were too wild! He could even get a membership card to Guose Tianxiang!
The bank staff had already grown accustomed to the sight of Ni Yang using plastic bags to carry money.
Thus, whenever Shangguan Xu arrived at the bank, the staff would immediately say, "President, your sister has deposited two plastic bags and a backpack full of money today!"
Shangguan Xu also greatly admired Ni Yang.
She seemed like a fragile young girl incapable of harming a chicken, but her ability to make money was stronger than ten strong men combined!
Ni Yang took Xiaozhou to Guose Tianxiang to eat.
After eating and returning home, it was already afternoon, Ni Yang asked about the result of Ni Cuihua’s visit to the Wu Family today.
Ni Cuihua said, "Your second younger sister still holds a grudge and isn’t ready to forgive us, but I don’t blame her. She’s never had a sip of milk since she was a child. If it hadn’t been for Sister Erju, she might be dead by now..."
Ni Yang hugged Ni Cuihua and comforted her, "Mom, don’t be sad. I don’t think Yanyun is the kind of person to stick to her guns. After she calms down in a couple of days, I’ll try talking to her."
After all, she was her sister born of the same mother; Ni Yang still had a lot of faith in Wu Yanyun.
And before, she and Wu Yanyun got along well...
Ni Cuihua nodded.
Shangguan Dehui looked at Ni Yang with hesitation in his expression.
"Dad, do you have something to say to me?"
"No," Shangguan Dehui shook his head, "I’m just worried. What if Yanyun refuses to forgive us? Would your mother regret it for the rest of her life?"
Ni Yang furrowed her brow slightly, "If Yanyun really doesn’t want to acknowledge us, then let it be. Rather than making a scene on both sides, it’s better to part on good terms. All we need to do is fulfill our duties, leave the rest to fate, and avoid living with regrets."
As for Ni Cuihua, as long as she learned that her second daughter wasn’t dead and was living well, that would be enough.
No matter what, these mistakes weren’t caused by her, and no amount of guilt could change that.
Finishing, Ni Yang continued, "But based on what I know about Yanyun, she doesn’t seem to be the type to be unreasonable."
Ni Yang had known Wu Yanyun for almost half a year.
In her understanding, Wu Yanyun had always been a kind, simple, and empathetic girl. As long as she was given time to process everything, Ni Yang believed she would understand.
Shangguan Dehui nodded.
Noticing that Shangguan Dehui seemed a bit off, Ni Yang said again, "Dad, are you hiding something from me?"
She always felt there was something strange about Shangguan Dehui that evening.
And it’s not just a little bit.
Shangguan Dehui said with a smile, "Look at you, kid, what could I possibly hide from you? There’s nothing to worry about, you’re overthinking it."
"Really?" Ni Yang raised an eyebrow slightly, "Dad, we’re all family, don’t hide anything from me if there’s something going on."
"Really, there’s nothing."
Shangguan Dehui repeatedly denied, so Ni Yang did not continue to question him and went back to her room to ask Ni Cuihua, "Mom, is dad hiding something from me?"
"What thing?" Ni Cuihua felt somewhat baffled.
"You don’t know?"
Ni Cuihua laughed, "I don’t know."
Ni Yang then said, "Mom, you went to the Wu family today, did something unpleasant happen?"
"Not at all," Ni Cuihua sighed. "If I had to say something, it’s just that Yanyun refused to acknowledge us."
Ni Yang knew they were definitely hiding something from her, "Mom, if there’s something going on, you have to tell me. We’re a family, and if there’s a problem, we should solve it together."
"Mmm." Ni Cuihua nodded, "Mom understands."
If Ni Cuihua wasn’t talking, Ni Yang could ask all she wanted, but it would be to no avail; thus, Ni Yang could only give up.
During dinner, Ni Yang noticed that Grandpa Zheng’s forehead was actually swollen, so she asked, "Grandpa, what happened to your forehead?"
Hearing this, Ni Cuihua’s brow twitched.
She looked at Grandpa Zheng somewhat nervously.
Grandpa Zheng touched his forehead, smiling and said, "Oh, it’s nothing. I was planting flowers this morning and accidentally got hit by a hoe, it will subside in a little bit."
Getting injured by a hoe while working was quite normal, so Ni Yang didn’t think much of it, "Be more careful when you work, Grandpa. I’ll get you some medicine later to help with the circulation and bruising."
"No need, it’s a small matter," Grandpa Zheng said, unconcerned.
Because of Wu Yanyun’s situation, Shangguan Xu also came back tonight.
He had even prepared a gift for his new sister, only to find she hadn’t come back at all...
...
The next morning, Ni Yang went out for a run, and Shangguan Xi went to work with her bag.
Just as she arrived at the corner, waiting for the bus, a luxurious sedan pulled up in front of Shangguan Xi.
The window rolled down, revealing a handsome face.
"Hello, Shangguan Xiaosi."
Seeing who it was, Shangguan Xi was amused, "Wu Chenjun, when did you get back?"
The person was Wu Chenjun, who had grown up with Shangguan Xi since childhood.
The last time, Grandma Zheng had even talked about matchmaking Shangguan Xi with Wu Chenjun.
But Shangguan Xi and Wu Chenjun were far too familiar with each other, having seen each other in split pants as kids, there was simply no spark, so Shangguan Xi refused.
After graduating from high school, Wu Chenjun had spent a few years abroad, so he was dressed very fashionably and sometimes even burst out with a few sentences in English.
"I came back a week ago. Shangguan Xiaosi, you don’t care about me at all! You didn’t even know when I came back! As soon as I got back, my grandma told me that your whole family had moved to the middle of nowhere, and I couldn’t believe it was true!"
Shangguan Xi slapped Wu Chenjun on the back, "What do you mean by the middle of nowhere? Let me tell you, this place is great! The mountains are green, the water is clear, and the birds sing beautifully!"
Although she had only moved to Jinghua Village a few months ago, Shangguan Xi had completely fallen in love with the place.
Wu Chenjun brushed off Shangguan Xi’s hand, "Where are you heading? Let me give you a lift?"
