Zhang Hao was beaten until his teeth flew out and blood flowed from his nose. However, he was still unable to say anything because of the heavy blow to his abdomen just now. He could only curl up like a shrimp and roll on the ground.
Ye Xuan squatted down and looked at his swollen face. He asked calmly, âAre you going to pay them?â
Zhang Hao was scared out of his wits. As he rolled around, he said in pain, âIâll⦠Iâll give it to them! Iâll give it to them now! Please let me goâ¦â Ye Xuan extended two fingers and said, âDouble the compensation.â
Zhang Hao immediately said, âAlright, alright.â
Zhang Haoâs factory and car had been destroyed. When the time came, he would not be able to deliver the goods. The penalty for breaching the contract would definitely be very high. Even if he took out his savings, he would probably go bankrupt.
However, did he dare to refute? No!
They had even deployed armed helicopters!
In the face of money, his life was more important.
After recovering a little, Zhang Hao immediately called the factoryâs accountant over and immediately transferred the salary arrears to the villagers. He also paid double the compensation.
The money in the factoryâs account was reduced by more than half.
The cash that the accountant had dragged over had been stored in the factory. The villagers looked at the real money in their hands and their eyes lit up with hope for life.
Since the villagers were paid, Ye Xuan let Zheng Jianghao and the rest leave.
After watching them fly away in the helicopters, Ye Xuan and the rest walked home.
Along the way, Liu Tian was very conflicted and did not know what to say.
This was because he remembered that when Liu Yanran called home, she did say that she was going to be Chairman Yeâs secretary. Could this child be Chairman Yeâs child? Furthermore, was he a super rich second-generation heir? Liu Tian had just enthusiastically touched Ye Xuanâs head and rubbed his faceâ¦
Liu Tian thought to himself, Oh no, would he cause his granddaughter to lose her job?
For a moment, the air was a little heavy.
Then, he walked to an empty space near his house. Liu Tian saw a beautiful sports car. It was much better-looking than Zhang Haoâs Mercedes-Benz, which had just been smashed. It was obvious that it was very expensive.
As if he had suddenly found a topic to talk about, Liu Tian finally said, âXiao Xuan, is this car yours?â
Ye Xuan looked at the Bugatti and nodded. âYes.â
Liu Tian casually said, âItâs so good-looking.
How much does it cost?â
At the side, Liu Yanran said matter-of-factly, âAbout 40 to 50 million.â
âHow much?â Liu Tian repeated in disbelief.
Liu Yanran recalled and gave a precise number. âGrandpa, this is a special Bugatti version. I remember that it cost 43 million yuan, but later on, we bought some accessories and so on. The total price should be more than 50 million yuan.
Liu Tian was stunned.
Forty to fifty million?
This was a number that he did not even dare to think about.
This was actually only the price of a car!
Liu Tian looked at the Bugatti, and his expression changed. How was this a car? This was a walking gold nugget!
Liu Tian suddenly felt regretful. He had chosen the wrong topic. He shouldnât have asked this⦠Then, Liu Tian brought the two of them to the house through the path that led into the house. After returning to his house, Liu Tian suddenly felt much more relaxed.
His attitude towards Ye Xuan finally became a little more natural as he asked enthusiastically, âXiao Xuan, do you want to eat an apple? The apple tree that your Grandpa planted himself is very fresh.â
Liu Yanran went forward and said, âGrandpa, we came here just now and didnât see you. I treated Ye Xuan to an apple before we left.â
âAll right, then,â said her Grandpa.
A while later.
âYoung Master, have some tea. My grandfather specially added sugar for you!â Ye Xuan was admiring the scenery when Liu Yanran walked over with a smile.
Grandpa Liu had just treated Ye Xuan to tea and fruits. Why would he ask Ye Xuan to drink tea?
However, Ye Xuan was stunned when he saw it.
Was this tea?
Liu Yanranâs bowl was filled with four to five eggs and sprinkled with white sugar. âIs this tea?â Seeing so many eggs, Ye Xuan felt his worldview shatter.
âThis is egg tea. This is the highest courtesy for our villageâs guests. Only distinguished guests can drink it. My grandfather specially made it for you just now!â
Liu Yanran smiled. Just now, her grandfather suddenly remembered to make egg tea for Ye Xuan and she couldnât stop him. What status did Ye Xuan have? He had eaten everything. Why would he care about a bowl of egg tea?
The key was that her grandfather would definitely have make a portion of egg tea for Liu Yanran, but she was unwilling to drink such a sweet and high-protein thing. This was something that threatened her figure.
However, her grandfather still made it. Despite this, Liu Yanran had already poured her share into Ye Xuanâs bowl.
Her Young Master would definitely not be able to tell.
âYoung Master, quickly drink it. My grandfather made it meticulously!â Liu Yanran was a little nervous. Would her Young Master see that she was lying?
Ye Xuan resisted and asked softly, âThereâs a bit too much sugar in this. Itâs fine if I donât drink it, right?â
Liu Yanran thought that if her Young Master didnât drink it, her grandfather would definitely force her to drink it in the end. What would happen to her figure if she drank such a sweet egg tea all of a sudden?
She thought, âYoung Master, I have no choice. but you sacrifice you.â Liu Yanran immediately had an idea.
Her Young Master rarely came to the countryside, so he definitely did not know the rules of the countryside. He had helped her grandfather, so it was only right for her grandfather to express his gratitude. âYou canât not drink it. Young Master, you helped my grandfather. Itâs normal for him to want to thank you. The tea from the countryside represents the highest gratitude. My grandfatherâs pride is quite strong. If you donât drink it, Iâm afraid there will be a misunderstanding.â
Ye Xuan thought about it and agreed. It wasnât that he didnât understand the countryside. The villagers were simple and passionate, but they also cared about their reputation. It was obvious that Liu Yanranâs grandfather had some status in the village. Moreover, everyone in the village had seen him enter with Liu Yanran.
He was also considered an esteemed guest. If he did not treat them well, the villagers would only say that Grandpa Liu did not treat his guests well.
But a misunderstanding? What misunderstanding?
...
Ye Xuan said, âWhat do you mean by a misunderstanding? Will the villagers talk about your grandfather?â
Liu Yanran was slightly stunned. She thought to herself that her Young Master knew a little about the countryside. If the villagers found out, they would definitely blame her grandfather for not treating their guests well. However, why did Young Master understand? However, she didnât think too much about it. She was afraid that if Ye Xuan really didnât want to drink it, she wouldnât be able to force him to drink it. In the end, her grandfather would definitely let her drink it. Thinking of the consequences, Liu Yanran felt that it was terrifying. It was better to trick her Young Master. In any case, her Young Master would definitely not know if she did not say anything. âItâs a misunderstandingâ¦â Liu Yanranâs eyes flickered as she made up a lie. âThatâs right. If the villagers know that my Grandpa canât even bear to give you sugar egg tea, they will definitely blame my Grandpa. Alsoâ¦â
âWhat is it?â Ye Xuan believed her and felt that what Liu Yanran said made sense. Liu Yanranâs eyes were as beautiful as the moon as she smiled. She thought to herself that her Young Master was so gullible. âI remember when I was young, there was an uncle who came to my house. He didnât want to drink it either, but he was chased away by my grandfather with a hoe!â
Liu Yanran pulled Ye Xuan to the entrance of the courtyard. The door threshold was a piece of limestone with a gap missing from the side.
