Chapter 28: Hold Me Tight, Warm Me
Xiaoyu came to his brother's side because he was not at ease. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info When she saw a stack of summons for a debt dispute in the court on her brother's coffee table, she made a resolute decision.
She returned to the city where she worked. At that time, when housing prices were soaring, the two houses that had just been repaid were sold at a low price. Then he used the house money to barely fill the big hole left by his brother's company, in exchange for the withdrawal of some creditors.
Xiao Yu also dissuaded himself and quit his job at a well-paid accounting firm. Insist on returning to his brother, hoping to help him get through it.
Li Liang couldn't help but ask, then why did you come to this city?
Xiao Yu smiled bitterly and said, my brother is in the familiar environment, and his current state is even worse. I thought it would be better to change the environment, but who knows he's still like this. Now, I hope that my brother can pick himself up and return to his normal life. In this way, I can leave with peace of mind.
Recently, a headhunter contacted him, and the salary conditions offered were not bad, and if he could go, he would be able to pay off his brother's debts earlier.
Li Liang suddenly remembered that Xiao Yu had said before that he had sold the car. Two suites, a car, maybe there are other things, could it be that Xiaoyu is very embarrassed now? So why is it so generous when talking about rent? I also paid another sum of money to buy new furniture and appliances.
He understood, it must be that she didn't want her brother to live too shabby in order to make her brother feel at ease, right?
Li Liang's heart was sad for a while. He has a very good impression of Xiaoyu, although he and Xiaoyu are only a landlord and tenant, but Li Liang wants to do something for her.
Li Liang immediately got up and entered the study and opened the locked drawer. Gritting his teeth, he took out two stacks of money and counted some out of the rest of the money.
He took the money in front of Xiaoyu and said loudly, I made a wrong offer to you that day, and this house will be rented to you for 1,000 yuan. I kept fifteen thousand, and this is twenty-two thousand five, and I will give it back to you.
Xiao Yu was stunned, looked at the money in front of him, and then looked at Li Liang, unable to believe his ears. She asked, what are you talking about? The contracts are all signed, don't be kidding.
Li Liang didn't know where the courage suddenly came from, so he grabbed Xiaoyu's hand and forced the money to her. Then he turned around and entered the study again, and when he came out, he held the contract in his hand, strode up to Xiaoyu, and tore the contract to shreds in two clicks.
Xiao Yu exclaimed, and it was too late to stop Li Liang. She put the money on the table with a look of disbelief on her face. She already believed that Li Liang was telling the truth.
She said in a trembling voice, this is okay, this is your money, I can't accept it.
Li Liang said firmly, you must accept it.
Xiao Yu's eyes were already red, and he muttered, No, I can't accept so much money for no reason...... And...... Moreover, of all the houses I have seen, the price you want is the cheapest......
Li Liang felt that his nose was sour, and he looked at the down-and-out beautiful girl in front of him, and didn't know how to comfort her. He looked at the new table between the two of them, and suddenly had an idea, and said, "Well, when you leave, these new furniture will be mine." These are the furniture money, and I won't give it more, that's all, by the way, don't say I'm taking advantage of others! You put the money away.
As he spoke, he couldn't help but say that he was going to stuff the money into Xiaoyu, who was standing still.
Xiao Yu didn't take the money, but covered her face with her hands, her shoulders trembled, and she began to sobb silently. She began to cry, and her crying grew louder and louder. It wasn't until she slowly curled down and knelt on the ground that she finally cried bitterly.
Li Liang was at a loss, not knowing what to say or do. He looked at Xiaoyu, who was kneeling on the ground and crying more and more sadly, and also knelt down and stayed by her side. Many words of comfort came to my lips, but I couldn't say anything.
Xiao Yu suddenly leaned on Li Liang's shoulders and hugged him tightly with both hands.
Feeling Xiaoyu's body temperature and smelling the faint aroma on her body, Li Liang's hands behind Xiaoyu were raised, put down, raised and lowered, and he never had the courage to hug Xiaoyu.
He knew that Xiao Yu must have been too wronged, and during this time, she must have suffered a lot of unimaginable hardships for others. But. I also have to force my composure in front of my brother and pretend that everything is OK.
Li Liang couldn't help but feel a sour feeling in his heart. Such a good girl, I really don't want to see her endure this.
Xiao Yu was like this, in the small restaurant, under the warm light, hugging Li Liang, who had just known him for a short time, in front of him, crying out of his huge pressure for almost a year and his deep grievances that he had nowhere to confide.
Her emotions slowly calmed down. Xiao Yu realized that Li Liang, who was surrounded by him, had been motionless for a long time. He was able to deal with his hysteria so patiently.
She embarrassedly let go of her arms and said in a loud voice, I'm sorry, I'm really sorry. When she saw Li Liang's shoulders, completely wet with her own tears, her cheeks immediately flushed with shame.
Li Liang's face also turned red all of a sudden, and he stammered, no...... It's okay...... As long as...... As long as you feel better, I'm fine......
As soon as these words came out, Xiaoyu almost lost control again, and almost cried again. Li Liang sighed, pretended not to see anything, turned his back, and pretended to clean the window with a rag.
Xiaoyu suddenly burst into tears and laughed, how could there be a window to clean in the middle of the night! She looked at the embarrassed Li Liang and suddenly felt a little kind about him.
At Li Liang's insistence, Xiaoyu still accepted the money, but she asked Li Liang to promise her one thing.
That is, after she left, she took care of her brother for herself. Li Liang immediately patted his chest and said, absolutely no problem.
Xiaoyu said again that he recently sold his car, and in addition to being able to pay off some debts for his brother, he has a lot more money on hand for the time being. He asked Li Liang to keep the more than 20,000 yuan for himself as the cost of taking care of his brother's food, clothing, housing and transportation.
Li Liang said, you are about to use the money now, keep the account first, and ask you when I have no money.
Xiaoyu was very resolute, if Li Liang didn't agree, he would never ask for this money. In the end, both sides took a step back, Li Liang left 10,000 yuan, and the rest of the money was still counted as a refund to Xiaoyu's rent.
Xiao Yu already believed that he could entrust his brother to Li Liang temporarily. She immediately contacted the headhunter, made an appointment, booked the ticket, and left next week.
Li Liang found that he was a little reluctant to let Xiaoyu go, but he admired this self-reliant and strong girl even more. He was originally a person who didn't take things outside of his body seriously, but now that he has the opportunity to do more for Xiaoyu, he is very willing.
