Chapter 168: Two or Three Things About My Girlfriend's Best Friend
Banana Live
Liang Fei was in the office, propping up his head with his eyes closed, his face full of fatigue.
The office door was open, and company employees passed by from time to time. Seeing Liang Fei's physically and mentally exhausted appearance, they were deeply moved.
"Mr. Liang has really worked hard for the development of the company. No wonder he was able to get a huge investment from Penguin Technology."
"Yeah, when I was Mr. Liang's age, I didn't even have a girlfriend. I was born to do great things."
"What big deal did Mr. Liang discuss last night?"
"I heard that he had a late-night talk with Mr. Zhang from Penguin Technology about the general trend of the Internet industry. We definitely don't understand."
"Walk a little, speak softly, don't disturb Mr. Liang's rest."
"Mr. Liang is very busy."
Liang Fei leaned back in his chair and rubbed his temples: "The wine I drank last night must have been fake. I have a terrible headache."
Dongdong-
Looking up, Wang Xiaoxiao was standing outside the door, smiling and speaking in a clear and cheerful voice: "Reporting to Mr. Liang, the staff on leave have returned to their posts. Please arrange their tasks."
Liang Fei looked at Wang Xiaoxiao, who was dressed up and wearing bright makeup, and asked casually, "What have you been doing these two days?"
"Well... there are some personal matters at home that I need to deal with, but it's okay, Mr. Liang, don't worry, it will definitely not affect my work."
Wang Xiaoxiao put her hands behind her back, her smile still sweet: "Then I'll go to the administration department first?"
"Go ahead."
Liang Fei waved her hand, then called out to Wang Xiaoxiao: "Your eyeliner is crooked."
Wang Xiaoxiao was stunned and quickly took out a makeup mirror from her pocket to look at herself. The lines at the corners of her eyes were indeed a little crooked. She stuck out her tongue apologetically and trotted towards the bathroom.
Looking at Wang Xiaoxiao's hurriedly leaving back, Liang Fei shook his head.
"How could such a beautiful girl draw her eyeliner crookedly? It's strange."
At noon, Liang Fei called Xiao Ming who was far away in Seoul, and also had a video meeting with the e-sports team they were planning to hire.
Xiao Ming found a foreign student at Yonsei University in Seoul to serve as an interpreter. The girl had a nice voice and was very smart.
For example, before the video conversation ended, Liang Fei said: "I wish us a pleasant cooperation and a long-lasting friendship between China and Baseball."
The little girl was very perceptive and translated it into "Wishing the friendship between China and South Korea last forever."
You see, there wasn't a single clue revealed, the little girl didn't even have the slightest expression.
After finishing the busy work, it was time for lunch. Liang Fei called Jin Jiaer: "Let Xiaoxiao come over, she..."
"Mr. Liang, Xiaoxiao has asked for leave again."
"again?"
"OK."
Liang Fei touched his chin and asked Jin Jiaer: "Did I get the wrong direction? The competitor is not trying to poach Wang Yi or Shen Ning, but Wang Xiaoxiao?"
…
The taxi took Wang Xiaoxiao back home. Before the car stopped completely, Wang Xiaoxiao got out in a hurry, picked up her bag and ran into the elevator.
When she arrived at the door of her home, Wang Xiaoxiao saw that it was open and her parents, as well as her aunt and uncle's family were sitting in the living room.
My father was smoking one cigarette after another, and the ashtray on the coffee table was almost overflowing. My mother was lying on the sofa, holding her chest with her hands, her face full of anger.
"mom!"
Seeing her mother like this, Wang Xiaoxiao immediately dropped her backpack, rushed into the house without taking off her shoes, took out a few quick-acting heart-saving pills from the drawer of the coffee table, and put them to her mother's mouth.
Mother Wang shook her head and said weakly, "I have eaten. Xiaoxiao...Call the police, call the police, and ask the police to arrest these robbers."
Father Wang glanced at his wife and advised, holding a cigarette between his legs: "We are all family, so why bother calling the police or not? Just talk it out and have a good discussion."
Wang Xiaoxiao looked at the culprit, the fat woman: "Aunt, my family has already agreed to give you the house downstairs, what are you still making trouble for?"
My aunt slapped her thigh in a loud voice, without any sense of guilt: "Oh, Xiaoxiao, you don't know the difficulties of adults. The stock market fell again yesterday, and your uncle lost all his money. Your cousin has to study abroad. Your uncle and I calculated that if we want to fill the hole, we have to sell our house."
"You can sell it however you want. It's not the first time. The compensation for the demolition of our hometown and the house are divided equally between our two families. But look at what a hell you've been living these past few years!"
Wang Xiaoxiao scolded him harshly, "Two of the three houses have already been sold. The relocation money has been squandered a long time ago. How much money did my father give to your family for free in the past two years? At least hundreds of thousands!"
My uncle sneered after hearing this and said, "How can you be so good at talking, little girl? How can you talk about your elders like that? And what can you do with hundreds of thousands of dollars these days?"
Wang Xiaoxiao took a deep breath, trying not to be so irritable, and after calming down, she asked, "So how much are you going to take this time?"
Mother Wang grabbed Wang Xiaoxiao's arm and sat up straight with all her strength: "These two vampires, they want the dowry your father and I left for you, the 120-yuan house, and the one downstairs too!"
Wang Xiaoxiao looked at her aunt and uncle in disbelief.
The fat aunt groaned a few times: "Sister, don't be so angry, let me do the math for you, after the house is sold to pay off the debt, our family will live downstairs, right? It will be great if the two families can have someone to take care of each other in the future. The remaining money can also be used to send your nephew to study abroad. When he returns after completing his studies, will he forget about his uncle and aunt?"
Wang Xiaoxiao sneered and asked, "What use will my dowry be to you?"
My aunt smiled and said, "Your cousin must have a house when he gets married. Girls are so realistic nowadays. They won't marry a man without a house or if the house is not big enough or good enough."
My uncle also chimed in, "Xiaoxiao is a girl, and she's so pretty. She can easily find a rich husband in the future. Why does she need such a big house? Just think of it as helping her family."
"You're dreaming!" Wang's mother shouted, "My daughter will marry in style. She'll have a house in her parents' home, so why should I give it to you for nothing?"
Seeing this, my aunt said hurriedly, "It's not for free, it's not for free."
Wang Xiaoxiao asked: "How much are you prepared to pay for the house that my parents left me? If I put it up for sale now, it can easily sell for more than three million."
"I know, that location is good." Auntie said with a smile, "When your cousin returns home after completing his studies, he will work in an investment bank or a large company. He will make a lot of money very quickly, and I will definitely give you a dowry by then."
Looking at her shameless aunt, her gambling uncle, and her cousin who only cared about playing video games, Wang Xiaoxiao felt dizzy and her chest ached.
"You guys really have no shame at all, right?" Wang Xiaoxiao just felt it was ridiculous.
“Hey, you stupid girl!” Auntie became sharp-tongued and pushed Father Wang. “Brother, who is the boss of this family? What did mom and dad say when they died? Did they ask you to take good care of me, and this is how you do it? Speak up!!”
My uncle slammed the table and shouted, "Anyway, these two houses must be transferred. Let's go today!"
“Why?”
Wang Xiaoxiao stood up, her pretty face full of ferocity: "You have squandered so much house and money, don't forget, those were all bought by demolishing my grandparents' houses and fields, and now you have the nerve to ask our family for it, what gives you the right?"
"The house you live in now was transferred by my father. Do you still want it?"
The aunt was speechless, then she clapped her hands and started to wail: "Mom and Dad, you saw it, you look up in heaven, the Wang family is now ruled by a little girl, she wants your daughter to die, you saw it!!"
"Brother, whether you give it to us or not, if you don't, our whole family will have no way to survive. We will be hanged in your house anyway!"
“That’s enough!!”
Father Wang roared, "Don't push your luck. It's impossible for you to take both houses. Even if your whole family jumps into the river right now, it's impossible!"
The aunt stopped throwing a tantrum, got up from the ground, hugged Wang's father's legs and cried, "Brother, please, that bastard not only played stocks, but also gambled. We are penniless now, and the debt collectors have started to throw paint on the door of our house. We can't sell our house, what do you say we should do?"
"Give us at least one set. Only by selling the set you left for Xiaoxiao can we barely pay off the debt. I won't let your nephew go abroad either. Please help us. This is the last time. I swear it will be the last time."
Father Wang staggered, looked at his wailing sister, and sighed with his head raised.
Wang Xiaoxiao sat aside and watched coldly, hugged her mother and comforted her softly, then said coldly: "You have planned this a long time ago, right?"
My aunt and uncle were stunned.
Wang Xiaoxiao sneered, "You're throwing tantrums and rolling around, and you're doing everything you can. In fact, you don't want to take both houses away. You just want the house that my parents left for me, right?"
"say!!"
The aunt looked at Wang Xiaoxiao in surprise, and when she met her big eyes, which should have been extremely gentle and beautiful, she actually felt a little guilty.
This little girl is not good at studying, but she has been very clever since she was young. She is only a few years old, but she can see through my thoughts.
After hearing what his daughter said, Father Wang was in despair. He looked down at his sister and said, "You are plotting against your brother. Are you planning to eat me for the rest of my life based on my parents' last wish?"
"Sister, I have a family to support, and I have to save up a dowry for my daughter, and for your sister-in-law and me in our old age. You can't do this..."
My aunt hated Wang Xiaoxiao so much in her heart. If she hadn't made it clear, it would have been obvious that Father Wang was ready to give up the house.
It's all this damn girl's fault!!
“Brother!!”
My aunt burst into tears and cried at the top of her lungs: "Sister, I have no choice. Do you really want to watch our whole family being hacked to death on the street by debt collectors? If that happens, do you have the face to see my parents? Do you have the face to do that?"
"Help me, brother!"
Father Wang scratched his hair, feeling weak all over, and waved his hand: "You guys go back first, let me think about it."
My uncle threw the stained cigarette on the floor and angrily grabbed his wife: "What a disgrace! What are you talking to him about? Come home with me and wait for the debt collectors to come and chop us to death!"
"Walk!"
"Brother, brother..."
The aunt who was being dragged threw her uncle off and pushed the frail uncle to the ground. She knelt and crawled towards Father Wang crying, "Did you hear it? Did you hear it?"
"It's not that I want Xiaoxiao's apartment, I just have no choice. I swear, the apartment downstairs must be reserved for Xiaoxiao. That's just her pretense. If I have any idea, I will be struck by lightning."
"Brother, save me, save me..." Aunt knelt on the ground, begging for mercy and rubbing her hands.
Wang Xiaoxiao also felt tired all over and her ears were buzzing. She really wanted to ask why?
But there was no way, his father was too filial, and the entrustment of his grandparents before their death was a shackle that he could not escape for the rest of his life.
Give it, give it...
Just think of it as a sin committed in the previous life.
"Wang Ling, right?"
A loud roar came from outside the door, and seven or eight burly men broke into the house innocently, dragging my aunt out without saying a word.
"Your husband said that if you don't pay, he will cut off your kidneys."
