Chapter 480: To add insult to injury
Huo Lei rested inside for a while before coming out, and saw that his daughter was smiling as usual, and the guests who entered the store also liked her very much, and carefully picked out her clothes at her suggestion.
My daughter is so sensible, but I didn't let her live a good life, and she followed me all day long, frightened. I finally got through this hurdle, but I ......
Am I going to continue to drag her down and make her suffer for the rest of her life?
Huo Lei thought tangledly, his eyes were soaked with tears, and he was holding a ball of tissues in his palm, which had red blood stains in it. Just now, he coughed up blood......
Since Huo Lei became a nouveau riche, he has been smoking and drinking, and after becoming addicted to gambling, his body has long been not as strong as when he was young. On weekdays, I don't think I'll have anything to do, but I can't think of it and I'll collapse. He knew that if this kind of symptom appeared, it would definitely not be pleasing to him, and even if he was cured, a high medical fee would be indispensable.
And now the Huo family, who has not even paid next month's rent, is about to be kicked out by the landlord, lives in a shop in the clothing city, and owes a lot of debts, how can they have the money to treat him?
Huo Lei thought that if he really wanted to see a doctor, he would definitely be in debt, dragging his daughter into extreme difficulties, and what was even more terrifying was that he couldn't even find a partner to borrow money now!
Rather than this, it is better to fend for yourself, let Xue Yan cut off contact with me, and save me from being involved!
Huo Lei had this idea in his heart, and he was a little reluctant, after all, he was a child who grew up from a young age, and it was impossible to say that he had no feelings.
But...... It is precisely because he cares that he cares more about Huo Xueyan's future, and following him will undoubtedly become more and more miserable for this child.
He wiped away his tears and finally made up his mind.
After the customer left, Huo Xueyan, who had made a business, took the money and happily asked her father for credit: "Dad, look." I sold another piece of clothing and went out of the house. ”
"Well, you're awesome......" Huo Lei touched her head with a smile, and then asked with a little hesitation, "Xue Yan, you...... Do you miss your mother? ”
Huo Xueyan's smile suddenly froze, and she immediately showed a rather dissatisfied expression and said, "What are you mentioning her for, I don't have a mother anymore, and I never thought about her." ”
If it was a child, Huo Xueyan would definitely not think so, Peng Xiaoyan and Huo Lei had just divorced. She cries and screams for her mother every day. But over time, because Peng Xiaoyan stayed away from Haidong and went to other places, she had never come to see her once in more than ten years, Huo Xueyan had already died of heart, and she didn't even remember what her mother looked like.
Moreover, there is still a lot of resentment towards this ruthless mother in my heart. Because she felt that if her mother had stayed in this house and persuaded her father well, maybe this family would not have become what it is now.
It was her evasion that brought the Huo family to where they are today, and it was she who made her father worse day by day.
"Don't say that. You...... Your mother is your mother after all, and it doesn't matter if you don't want to admit it. Huo Lei endured his heartache and said, "I'm thinking, you haven't been back to Guanglin for several years." Now that you've moved back, do you want to ...... Go see your mom? ”
Because he broke off contact after the divorce, and he has been wandering outside, Huo Lei didn't even know about Peng Xiaoyan's current livelihood in Dibei Province.
"I don't want it." Huo Xueyan said coldly, "Dad, what's wrong with you today." You'd never say that before. ”
"No, it's nothing...... Huo Lei pretended to smile calmly, thought of an idea, and said, "I thought, you haven't seen her for so long, if you do, maybe she will give you some money when she is happy, won't we have next month's rent?" ”
Huo Xueyan's face sank, she frowned and looked at her father, she wanted to say a few words to him, but she still endured it after thinking about it, she also knew that the family was poor now, and the money she earned from doing business in the past few days, except for food expenses, was only four or five hundred, and she had to pay rent at the beginning of the month.
The relatives of this family have long been afraid of Huo Lei, and seeing him is like seeing a broom star, not to mention borrowing money, I am afraid that there will be debt collectors when we meet.
Now that she is desperate, her father asks her to go to her mother for help, and she can only obey.
"......Well," she said, biting her lower lip, "well, I'll try my luck tomorrow on a trip to Huiming Town." ”
"Well, good! Good! Huo Lei said hello twice, and then said, "Clean up at night and bring a few changes of clothes." It's rare to go to grandma's house, just stay there for two more days, it doesn't matter, you are also their child after all, even if they don't have me in their eyes, they still have you. ”
Huo Xueyan said in her heart, if you just go for a day, if you want money to leave, it is really not easy to speak, since Dad said so, according to his idea, go to Grandma's house to live for a few days, and pretend to be a good child for a few days.
"The rent is ...... here"
"Isn't there still a few hundred spare money," Huo Lei said indifferently, "I can't afford to pay the monthly rent, but the daily rent is always okay, right?" Talk to the landlord and it's okay to extend it for a few days. Anyway, you also happen to be on vacation, just stay at your grandmother's house for a few more days, by the way, read well, you don't have to worry about things in the store, with me, what are you afraid of. ”
It was rare for her father to care so much about her studies, and Huo Xueyan was also a little moved by what he said, so she dispelled her worries and nodded in agreement.
That night, Wang Bai went to the Daxin community and handed Chen Panpan a passbook, which was an account in her name, which contained her special personal development funds.
Although this part of the assets is included in the assets of Shuangbai Company, Chen Panpan also has the right to control it. The first fund in the account is Wang Bai's part of Chen Panpan's personal debut album, with more than 20 million.
Wang Bai told her that this was the result of his discussion with Xu Wushuang, and in order to support Panpan's singing career in the future, the company would set aside a part of the special funds every year to invest, and these funds would not be used for anything other than Panpan's body.
Promising to support her to continue to develop and put into practical action are two different things, and Wang Bai gave Chen Panpan a reassurance.
Panpan accepted the passbook, but her face didn't show the expected smile, as if she didn't care much about these things, she pouted a little sullenly.
"What's wrong? What's upset? ”
Panpan raised her eyes and glanced at him, and said coquettishly: "You want to accompany Lili and them on a trip on National Day, I can't go, can you get up happily......"
Tomorrow is the National Day holiday, seeing that other people are going to go out with Wang Bai to play, Panpan can only stay in Guanglin, no wonder he is a little unhappy.
Wang Bai said helplessly: "Who called you a celebrity, it's not convenient to go out with Tian Tianyuan, otherwise how could I leave you behind......"
"Then you are also favoritism...... Pan Pan muttered quietly, expressing a small dissatisfaction in his heart. She felt that Lili and Yu'er were in the same school as Wang Bai, and there were many opportunities to meet, and she rarely had the opportunity to get along with him except for the morning exercise when she could meet him in the morning. It's rare to have a holiday, and his schedule is so full, it's really hard for her not to be jealous.
"Okay," Wang Bai smiled and hugged her, "You didn't care about these things before, why did you suddenly become jealous?" It's only three days to travel, and I'll try to accompany you the rest of the time, okay? ”
Panpan smiled playfully and nodded obediently. The reason why Wang Bai asked that question was actually that he didn't pay attention to it.
Chen Panpan is different from Jin Xiaoli and Xu Wushuang, she originally had a little resistance to the fact that Wang Bai has many women, otherwise she would not have lost her favorability when she heard about the relationship between him and Lili and others.
Although she reluctantly accepted this fact and tried to integrate into this circle, she was still not as generous as Wushuang and Lili in her bones.
She still hopes that she can be valued and concerned, and hopes that at least compared with others, Wang Bai can be a little different from her.
This is caused by personality and growth environment, Chen Panpan, as a star, naturally craves recognition and attention, this is a kind of vanity that is not very serious, and she is an orphan and grows up in a loveless environment, so there is more need for the care of her lover.
Therefore, the same 100 points of favorability can guarantee absolute loyalty to love, but in terms of attitude towards Wang Bai, it still varies from person to person.
changed to Xu Wushuang, so she generously let Wang Bai go, but she had a girlfriend as a companion, and the situation was a little different.
The next day, National Day, Wang Bai drove to Shuiqiao Jingyuan in the morning to help the two women who lived there move. Xu Wushuang and Xue Jiahui didn't bring many things when they moved in, they were all clothes and small things, so it was very convenient to move, and the only big thing to take away was the computer in Xu Wushuang's room, which Wang Bai left for her to use.
So after the luggage and some large bags and small bags of the two were packed in Wang Bai and Xu Wushuang's car, they were packed up, and the two cars left before and after, and Xu Wushuang and Xue Jiahui officially moved out of the old house and moved to a new house.
After moving to the home of Guanglin New Town, it was indispensable to clean up and tidy up, and Wang Bai couldn't help with these things, so he went out to buy vegetables for them, and prepared to have a meal here at noon, simply celebrating the joy of housewarming.
Today is a national holiday, and all families are reunited, Qi Jueying and Jin Xiaoli are shopping accompanied by their families, while Chen Panpan took Tian Tianyuan to Guanglin Orphanage to celebrate the National Day with the children. She pre-ordered a batch of autumn and winter clothes and gifts, and agreed to deliver them today, which is also the practice after her income has increased in recent years.
Wang Xuesong went to Baihe's hometown to visit some old relatives, Lu Lu went to visit her grandmother in the nursing home, and Wang Bai was helping Wushuang and them move. (To be continued......)
