Chapter 237: Humble Wen Ming; Lu Xixiao gives Wen Li New Year's money, but is ignored
Country M.
Early in the morning, Wen Ming stood downstairs of the LUCY Building.
However, after waiting for a long time, Lin Zhuxi still did not show up.
So he called Lin Zhuxi.
After waiting for a while, the call was finally connected.
"Today is Chinese New Year's Eve. I'm going to the airport soon. Can I meet you? I'm downstairs at your company right now." Wen Ming asked breathlessly. After a moment of silence, he said, "I just want to see you and say Happy New Year to you in person. I won't pester you at all."
There was a hint of humility in his words.
Lin Zhuxi's slightly cold voice came from the phone: "I'm not in New York. I'm on a business trip and won't be back until tonight."
Lin Zhuxi refused politely.
Wen Ming, who hadn't heard it, said hurriedly, "I can wait."
Maybe he heard it, but wanted to fight for it.
Waited for a while.
Lin Zhuxi: "Sorry, I may not be free."
The capital city welcomed the New Year in heavy snow.
The city is decorated with lights and the snow is flawless, with red and white complementing each other.
On New Year's Eve, with lights on and blessings rang out, the Lu family, young and old, gathered at the residence of the deceased Mr. and Mrs. Lu. This has been the case for many years, and this is also the most crowded and lively day of the year for the Lu family.
"Little Jingyuan, you'll be three after the Chinese New Year. This year's lucky money will be increased to 30 million. Fourth Grandpa, give it to me~" Lu Xifeng took out a red envelope and gave it to the little guy: "Use it to buy delicious food. If it's not enough, ask Fourth Grandpa for more. The password is still the same six, can you remember it?"
"Yeah." The little guy took the red envelope containing the bank card.
Lu Xixiao: "Jingyuan, I have to thank Fourth Grandpa."
The little guy stammered for a moment and whispered, "Thank you..."
"Fourth Grandpa, can you give me a hug?" Lu Xifeng stretched out his hand.
After a while, the little guy finally agreed: "Well..."
Lu Xifeng, who was half squatting, took a half step forward and gently hugged the little guy. His heart melted as he held the soft and milky little ball in his arms. Lu Xifeng's eyes were full of love: "Jingyuan is so good."
"Fourth Uncle, where is mine?" Lu Ziyin stretched out his hand for a red envelope.
Lu Xifeng stood up and said, "Ziyin, Fourth Uncle has also prepared some New Year's money for you." He searched his pockets and finally pulled out two stacks of brand new hundred-yuan bills. "It will be 20 after the New Year, so the amount of New Year's money has to go up this year, to 20,000 yuan."
Lu Xifeng handed it to Lu Ziyin and said generously, "Take it and spend it as you like. If your father dares to confiscate it, come find Fourth Uncle."
"So many?! Nineteen thousand last year, twenty thousand this year. Won't I have six hundred thousand when I'm sixty?!" Lu Ziyin held two stacks of banknotes and imagined the future with shining eyes.
Lu Qi, who was sitting next to the sofa: "???"
Is this how it is calculated?
Lu Ziyin's confident words almost made him unsure, and he silently counted on his fingers...
Lu Xixiao sat on the sofa, his eyes falling on the little guy who was receiving the New Year's money. Suddenly, a red envelope was handed to him. He rubbed the hand holding the red envelope gently, and another one came out. Lu Xixiao looked at Lu Xifeng who was sitting next to him along the two red envelopes.
Lu Xifeng inquired, "How's it going with that girl? Is it appropriate for me to give her a red envelope now? I'm ready."
Lu Xixiao reached out and took the two red envelopes: "I'll keep them for her first." There was no chance to give them this year, but maybe there would be a chance next year.
Lu Xifeng: "Xiaowu, you have to work harder and try to send out the red envelope as soon as possible. It won't look good if it gets stuck in your hands."
"Ah."
Not long after responding to his fourth brother's request, Lu Xixiao took out his mobile phone, opened WeChat, and clicked on the pinned chat page with Wen Li.
Wen Li came out of the kitchen carrying a plate of food and walked towards the main room.
The phone in her pocket vibrated, but she ignored it. One reason was that she was lazy and didn't want to check it, and the other was that she had received too many messages today, and most of them were insignificant New Year's greetings, money transfers and greetings.
Wen Li waited until her grandmother finished cooking the last dish and sat down to eat. Then she took out her cell phone to check the time. Lin Zhuxi sent her a message, so she opened WeChat.
A lot of money was transferred to her today, and Wen Li took it from the person who received it.
After collecting Lin Zhuxi's, I glanced at the ones in the middle and saw the old man at the bottom. The notes and avatar were just stuck at the bottom, half of them were exposed. I dragged my finger across the screen - it was complete.
Old-fashioned: "[Transfer] Please receive the money"
Clicked in and took a look.
The transfer amount with the note Happy New Year is.
For non-enterprise WeChat users, the maximum limit for a single transaction per day is 200,000.
Old Mrs. Fang kept picking up food for Wen Li: "Li Li, eat first, then get busy. After you finish eating, grandma will give you some New Year's money."
"Yeah." Wen Li put down the phone.
Looking at the silent phone, Lu Xixiao pondered for a moment: "Jingyuan, did you bring your phone? Give it to Grandpa."
The little guy turned around and moved his little mouth: "Hmm..."
Lu Xixiao ordered Lu Qi: "Go get Lu Wu's phone."
"I will move out of the Wen family next year and live on my own. Will you consider moving to Beijing to live with me then?" Wen Li asked her grandmother what she thought.
"Don't you live at your father's house anymore?"
"Well, the Wen family is almost finished."
"what?"
She had thought that Wen Li was in a bad situation at the Wen family, but when Wen Li said this so casually, Grandma Fang was so caught off guard that she didn't even bother to eat: "What happened?"
"Wen Baixiang is incompetent, offends people, and does a lot of evil things that backfire. It's only a matter of time before he's finished." Ever since she learned that she had a weird father in this world, the Wen family was doomed.
Before the operation, she would eliminate the Wen family. After all, if something went wrong during the operation and the Wen family escaped, she would die with regret. She would let them suffer for a while longer. Now, seeing Wen Baixiang running around for the company, unable to sleep or eat, becoming more and more haggard and exhausted every day, and then having to deal with the troubles of his wife and children when he returned home, she felt happy and relieved.
It’s a pity that Lin Yun and her daughter have learned their lesson and become honest.
As for Wen Yan...I don't think she will take any action in the short term.
We can’t make things worse for Wen Baixiang.
Wen Baixiang has been sorry for her for nearly eighteen years, making his grandmother work so hard for so many years. He has only lived through this life of unrest, family breakdown and exhaustion for more than half a year. How can this be enough?
Old Mrs. Fang didn't expect that Wen Baixiang, who had been so prosperous for so many years, would suddenly fall from power. She couldn't help but sigh.
Then he felt sorry for Wen Li, who didn't enjoy as much of his father's blessings. He also felt a little relieved that Wen Baixiang had received his retribution.
"God is watching what people do, he deserves it. It won't implicate you, Li Li, right?" Old Mrs. Fang was only concerned about whether it would affect Wen Li.
And the Wen family at this time.
Although the lights are on, it is cold and deserted.
The food on the table was already a little cold.
Wen Baixiang sat in the main seat without saying a word.
The whole dinner table was quiet.
No one dared to move their chopsticks until Wen Baixiang started.
After a few minutes, Wen Baixiang glanced at the two empty seats, picked up his chopsticks, and said in a deep voice, "No more waiting."
Old Lady Fang asked, "Li Li, what are your plans?"
"Take what I should take and live our own lives."
Afraid of worrying her grandmother and also afraid of scaring her grandmother, Wen Li only told her half the truth and maintained her image of being well-behaved and honest.
The phone on the table vibrated twice and the screen lit up.
Seeing that it was a message from Lu Jingyuan, Wen Li picked it up and took a look.
Another transfer of two hundred thousand.
Plus a "Happy New Year" emoticon pack.
