Chapter 468 I was laughed at for being a gigolo
Lin Yuyao presented the futuristic pastries she had made herself.
"Auntie, I made some pastries myself when I had nothing to do. Please have a taste."
"Oh, you're too kind. You came all this way to personally deliver a box of pastries to me."
"I was just passing through in the city center on business, so this was on my way."
"Alright, alright, you rarely come here, you have to stay for lunch. Leyi will be back soon too."
"Alright, then I'll take my leave."
"We're all family, we're happy you came."
After exchanging a few pleasantries and chatting casually for a while, Lin Yuyao's gaze fell on Pan Xiaocao.
“I went to the market to look for you, but the neighbors said your sister hasn’t come back yet.”
“Yes, it’s been a long time since the agreed time.” Pan Xiaocao’s eyes were full of tears and worry. “I called the village chief’s house, and he said that my older brother had arranged a marriage for my sister, and she is getting married and won’t be coming back.”
Given Pan Xiaohua's personality, how could she possibly stay in her hometown and get married?
Of the entire Pan family, the worst and most vicious person is Pan Yi, who has inherited the old lady's true teachings.
As they were talking, Fu Leyi returned.
"Oh, Yuyao's here too. Is there some happy occasion today? Why are you all coming to see me?"
Lin Yuyao said, "I was taking care of some business here and happened to come and see you all. What a coincidence."
Fu Leyi smiled at Lin Yuyao, then looked at Pan Xiaocao, and her expression changed.
“I remember telling you that I have nothing to do with your Pan family anymore, and I hope you won’t come looking for me.”
Upon hearing her words, Pan Xiaocao, who was already quite timid, turned pale with fright and repeatedly apologized to Fu Leyi.
"Miss Fu, I'm so sorry, I really..."
“I know you really have no other choice, but what does that have to do with me? I don’t want to get involved in anything related to your Pan family anymore.”
"I...I understand." Tears welled up in her eyes and streamed down her face.
Pan Xiaocao stood up and kept bowing and apologizing.
"I'm sorry, I'll be leaving now."
She left quickly.
Zhang Fangfang saw this and sighed deeply.
Fu Leyi said, "Mom, why are you sighing? Didn't you tell me that I shouldn't get involved in anything of their family's affairs anymore?"
"That's true, but..."
Zhang Fangfang hated the evil deeds done by the Pan family, but she was always a kind person.
After thinking it over, he chased after her again.
She saw Pan Xiaocao waiting for the bus at the bus stop not far away, so she went up to her.
"It's really not appropriate for us to interfere in your family's affairs. But don't worry, society is different now than before. Your sister is a smart person, she'll be fine."
Pan Xiaocao looked at her with teary eyes.
"Auntie, I want to go back and save my sister. She must have been held captive by my older brother."
"No, please don't." Zhang Fangfang sighed and said, "Don't go back. Take good care of the shop. It's your sister's capital for independence. If nothing happens to you, you'll be doing your sister a huge favor."
"What if my sister doesn't come back?"
"No, your sister is stronger than you. If she can't come back, it won't do you any good. It's easy for her to run away on her own, but it would be difficult for her to take you with her."
Pan Xiaocao nodded, thanked Zhang Fangfang, and then got on the bus and left.
Inside the room, Lin Yuyao told Fu Leyi about the letter that hadn't been handed over.
“Pan Xiaohua hasn’t come back yet, and I’m worried that Pan Xiaocao won’t be able to manage the household, so this letter is still with me. Sister, what do you think we should do?”
"Keep it with you, and give it to Pan Xiaohua when she comes back."
"I wonder if she can come back." After saying that, Lin Yuyao added, "Pan Xiaohua is quite capable, she should be fine."
Fu Leyi nodded and said, "Let's not talk about them anymore, let's talk about our cooperation."
"it is good."
"I've read your script, it's pretty good. I can invest in you. How much money do you need?"
"We'll do whatever it takes, however much money you give me, sister."
Fu Leyi paused for a moment, stared at her for a while, and then burst into laughter, "Okay, I'll have my people evaluate it and give you an answer later. Don't bother trying to attract other investors; I'll make up whatever amount you're short."
Finally, he added, "You've gone bad."
Fu Leyi is rich; Fu Huaiyi had told her before that she was richer than she imagined.
That's why she dared to say that she could invest as much as she needed.
Such a wealthy heiress almost fell into the hands of someone like Pan Hong.
What's this called? Pan Hong is used to balance the luck.
Now that Fu Xingwei and his wife see how ambitious Fu Leyi is, they no longer scold Pan Hong and even occasionally thank him.
You should know that Fu Leyi used to have no ambitions. She only wanted to be a wealthy wife like Zhang Fangfang.
After being tricked by Pan Hong, he thought of becoming a wealthy CEO like Fu Xingwei.
That evening, Lin Yuyao casually mentioned these things to Fu Huaiyi, jokingly saying that Pan Hong was used to balance Le Yi's luck.
Fu Huaiyi replied, "Isn't that great? If she and Pan Hong live happily ever after, wouldn't everyone be jealous?"
Lin Yuyao paused for a moment, then nudged him with her elbow and asked, "And what about you?"
"Me? I'm in a terrible state."
Lin Yuyao: "You're in a bad situation?"
"Ah."
"What's so tragic about you?"
"People mock me, saying I'm only good at being born into wealth, that I'm nothing without my parents and grandparents. I'm clearly so talented, and I worked so hard to get into university, but people still suspect I got in through connections. Can you believe how pathetic I am?"
Lin Yuyao was both amused and exasperated. "That's a bit tragic."
“There are even worse cases.”
"what?"
"I guess they'll still mock me for being a kept man in the future."
Lin Yuyao: “…”
"Do you think I'm pathetic?"
He took it seriously.
"Then tell them that this is your ability, and that they can't even get a free meal if they want to."
"My wife is right. I'd better make sure I hold onto my 'soft rice bowl' and let them be envious."
"Hey, just say what you want to say, don't hit me."
"I'm trying my best to live off a woman."
……
Lin Yuyao maintained contact with Ye Xiaotong, calling her every two or three days to report on her work and also to chat about Yang Guangzong.
"It seems he's not planning to leave; he's looking for work nearby."
Ye Xiaotong was startled, "What should we do?"
"Don't panic, we don't need to worry about this. We have to trust Fang Qing."
Ye Xiaotong: "Do you believe Fang Qing?"
"Yes, Fang Qing wants to get rid of him more than anyone else."
Zhou Jing liked to listen to gossip, so Lin Yuyao asked her to find out more about Fang Qing and Yang Guangzong.
She gave the old lady living in the alley two bags of fruit candy and a large live fish. The old lady poured out her heart to her, telling her everything.
Sometimes he would even make a special trip to the bookstore to talk to Zhou Jing.
After Zhou Jing found out, she told Lin Yuyao.
She now knows about Yang Guangzong's threats against the Lu family and Fang Qing.
