Chapter 433

Wang Qingfu coughed twice, looking moved: "Big bro, you really hit home with that. I was totally in the dark about what was going on in the family. If I had known Dad snatched you from another family, I... I would've treated you way better.
You've put in so much for the family all these years, although we are repaying the money. But the crap you went through back then, there's no making up for that.
What do you want from me? Spit it out!"
"I want the evidence that He Youde instructed Wang Shoucheng to abduct me back then. I think Wang Shoucheng should have it, right?
Help me snag it, and name your price."
Wang Qinghe spoke, no matter how Wang Qingfu chose, it would be beneficial to him.
If Wang Qingfu was willing to directly give him the evidence, then he would pay.
That cash would find its way back to him eventually.
After all, Old Wang’s still owed him and Xiuxiu’s daughter.
If he refused and tried to screw him over, then he would use another method to make him hand over the evidence.
"Big bro, you... you’re going after He Youde?" Wang Qingfu's heart pounded as he began to calculate which option would benefit him more.
After mulling it over, he decided to go with Zhou Jiaojiao and Old Fifth.
Big bro freaked him out, and he wasn’t sure he’d get much out of it.
But Old Fifth and his wife were a different story; they’d actually come through for him.
He wanted the good life, and you gotta take risks to get rich!
Almost immediately, Wang Qingfu made his choice. He frowned: "That's no problem. Actually, Dad handed this over to me ages ago.
But I don’t have it on me right now. How about this?
Tomorrow night, I’ll pick a spot, and you come get it."
Wang Qingfu’s heart was racing, nervous as hell.
He was sweating bullets, worried Wang Qinghe wouldn’t bite.
Wang Qinghe didn’t hesitate: "Sure, whatever you say."
That’s it? Wang Qingfu was floored; big bro was a total pushover.
"Give me the spot tomorrow, and I’ll grab it. What’s the price?" Wang Qinghe was speechless at Wang Qingfu's full-of-holes lie.
"Oh yeah, uh... five hundred!" Wang Qingfu's eyes flickered.
If this worked, he’d pocket an extra five hundred bucks.
How great is that?
If Wang Qinghe ends up dead, he’s got no one to blame but himself.
Blame himself for not being on his guard.
"Fine, five hundred." Wang Qinghe forced a pained smile and nodded. After a few more words, Wang Qinghe left.
Wang Qingfu was so thrilled he nearly burst out laughing.
He was on a roll. From now on, Old Fifth and his wife would be shelling out money to him every month—more than he could ever spend!
He'd be rolling in it!
"Second brother, what’s got you grinning like that?" Wang Qingqi had been working on the other side and saw Wang Qinghe come over to talk to his second brother. After that, his second brother had been like this.
He rushed over, curious about what had him so amused.
When Wang Qingqi showed up, Wang Qingfu’s grin vanished, and he cleared his throat awkwardly: "Oh, nothing. Just figured out how to lure Wang Qinghe out.
Guess it’s his own fault for coming to me."
"Really?"
Wang Qingqi had been racking his brain over this, so he was surprised a solution popped up so fast.
"Yeah, once we pick the spot tomorrow, we’ll get him to go." Wang Qingfu was very proud; this was his idea.
"Perfect! It’s all because of my wife. She’s got the luck—everything she touches turns to gold." Wang Qingqi now believed in his wife's luck 100%.
Otherwise, none of this would add up.
Wang Qingfu’s grin vanished. Was Old Fifth losing it?
Everything’s about his wife—like she’s some kind of goddess or something?
Isn’t that just crazy talk?
"Alright, enough chit-chat. We’ve got to track someone down tonight!" Wang Qingfu didn't like talking to him.
Anyway, the plan was set—he just had to wait for the payoff!
Once he cashed in, he’d ditch his current wife and find a better one.
Wang Qingqi didn’t get why his second brother was mad, but with the plan in place, he was thrilled. After tomorrow night, once it was all over, he’d never have to worry about being shipped back to the village!
Both brothers felt like they’d hit the jackpot, grinning from ear to ear.
Meanwhile, not everyone was feeling the joy.
He Youde stood at Ji Feng’s door, scowling. He was still short on cash to hire someone, so he figured he’d hit up his daughter for some money.
Huihui had to have some cash, but he’d been waiting forever and she was nowhere to be seen.
Instead, he ran into Ji Feng’s mom.
Ji Feng’s mom wasn’t as meek as before. She gave He Youde a once-over and smirked: "Here for Huihui? You’re a little late, in-law. She’s already out with Ji Feng.
They’re on their honeymoon, heading back to their hometown for a few days.
Our hometown is far away, as you know.
If you're looking for them, you'll have to wait."
Ji Feng’s mom’s words hit He Youde like a ton of bricks.
What?
Going back to your hometown?
Ji Feng's hometown, seems to be in some village, right?
But it's been decades since they last went back, so why suddenly take Huihui along?
Ji Feng probably hasn't been back either, has he?
"Actually, if it were someone else, it might be fine, but who told you to marry Huihui from your family? I can't have her staying at home every day, letting others see and gossip about our family.
This matter, it's really your family that made it look bad."
Ji Feng's mother-in-law still smiled, but her words grew harsher.
He Youde's face completely fell.
"Why are you being so harsh?"
Upon hearing this, Ji Feng's mother-in-law retorted, "Look at what you're saying, when you married off your daughter, the situation was quite messy too. You did messy things, I speak harshly, isn't that fair?
Hurry up and leave, when Huihui comes back, she can find you herself."
With that, the old lady closed the door.
Leaving He Youde standing alone outside.
He Youde was completely dumbfounded; he could wait, but the money couldn't.
It was also his own fault for being too hasty; he had given part of Huihui's dowry to He Tian.
Now, great...
Originally, he didn't want to ask his son for money, but now he had no other choice.
"Youde?" At the He family home, He Quan was about to go out for a walk when he saw his son eating dust at Ji Feng's doorstep.
He was very surprised.
He Youde turned around upon hearing this, saw his father, and felt like he had found a savior: "Dad, do you have any money? I'm still short five hundred for my plan!"
"How much?" He Quan was shocked. Why so much money?
Does Youde think I can just pull money out of thin air?
"Dad, listen to me..." He Youde explained his plan to He Quan.
After hearing this, He Quan nodded and said, "Wait, I'll go get it for you."
"You're He Youde, right?"
As the father and son were talking, someone outside the yard pointed at He Youde and asked.
He Youde was stunned upon hearing this. He walked to the gate, puzzled, and asked, "Who are you?"
As soon as the words fell, he was punched in the face.
