Chapter 512: Chapter 512: Time to Go Back to School

Director Gu took the newspaper, and after reading the content, fury flickered in his eyes, his brows tightening, his anger reaching its peak when he looked at the photos on top.

He smashed the newspaper furiously onto the tabletop, "These people are simply spouting nonsense.

Xujia Village is nothing like this; this is clearly a smear and frame-up."

The secretary, with shoulders hunched and bowing, looked both scared and angry, "Director, these people are indeed going too far; we visited Xujia Village last time, and the scenery was so beautiful.

How could it turn into something like this in their mouths; it’s simply outrageous."

Director Gu, with a grim face, quickly sent someone to contact the author of the article.

Meanwhile, tourists from Wu Village were cursing at Zhi Yun’s books, their words too harsh to bear.

Readers who had communicated with Zhi Yun through letters sent angry messages.

"Zhi Yun, did you collude with Xujia Village to deceive us tourists?"

"To do such things for money, shameless.

We liked you so much, you ’upstanding’ hypocrites."

"Exactly, you talk it up, but it turned out to be a godforsaken place."

Zhi Yun had no idea what had happened; she was still living in the inn at Xujia Village, enjoying the scenery and continuing her writing.

Xu Ying was unaware too, and seeing that the rural tourism business was on the right track, it was time for Xu Ying to start school again.

Mrs. Xu watched her daughter get ready to leave, she looked at her husband with hesitation, "Old man, should I go with our daughter?

It’s not okay for her to be alone with two kids. Maybe I should go with her."

Yet Mrs. Xu could not bear to leave her own husband; she had been married to Mr. Xu for so many years, and the couple had never been apart.

Mr. Xu also sighed; people said they hoped for their son to become successful, but now that their child had a career, they could not bear to part with her.

"You go with our daughter, I’ll stay at home," Mr. Xu said with reluctant acceptance.

Mrs. Xu nodded and finally decided to go with her daughter to school.

When Xu Ying was about to leave for school, Mrs. Xu was also packing her things to go.

"Mom, what are you packing for?" Xu Ying asked, full of curiosity.

"I’ll go with you to school. Later, I can help you take care of the kids," Mrs. Xu said!

Xu Ying burst into laughter, "Mom, you don’t need to go, didn’t we agree? When the time comes, I’ll just hire an aunt to take care of the kids.

Plus, there’s Huo Chen. You just take good care of yourself and Dad at home.

Besides, my sister-in-law is pregnant now and needs your care, too."

Mrs. Xu, upon hearing this, was unwilling, "Hiring an outside aunt, there’s no assurance like my care."

Mrs. Xu firmly disagreed, and ultimately decided to go to Beijing with Huo Chen and Xu Ying.

However, Xu Ying and Huo Chen would go first, with Mrs. Xu following a few days later.

Just after Xu Ying and Huo Chen arrived, Zhang Yanlin called his son, "You and your wife didn’t come back for New Year’s, that’s fine.

But you didn’t hold your child’s one-month celebration at home and instead ran off to your mother-in-law’s place.

Huo Chen, am I still your father? Are you trying to embarrass me on purpose?"

Zhang Yanlin was seething with unexpressed anger, and Liu Dashan’s family was like blood-sucking locusts.

He and his wife had run around trying to find jobs for this family, only to hit wall after wall, and who knew that Liu Dashan and his spouse could hardly read and had barely any education.

He had both spent money and pulled strings but still couldn’t find work for the couple.

These two could really eat; they almost emptied out their house in a month.

Zhang Yanlin’s personal savings were almost devoured as well.

He was eager to start a business, but he couldn’t get in touch with his son.

"Father, I didn’t have my child’s one-month celebration at my mother-in-law’s place. I held it at my grandmother’s.

Since I was young, my grandmother raised me. I can’t just ignore her, can I?" Huo Chen said straightforwardly.

Zhang Yanlin’s face turned a bit unpleasant, "Alright, enough with that.

When are you coming back, and what happened to the business deal you mentioned before?

Will I even be able to do it?"

Huo Chen had been waiting for Zhang Yanlin to say exactly that. Zhang Yanlin was naturally cautious and suspicious. If Huo Chen had arranged the business too quickly, Zhang Yanlin would have become suspicious and probably wouldn’t have wanted to proceed.

But now, since Huo Chen had kept him waiting so slowly, Zhang Yanlin started to feel that the business was genuinely difficult and grew even more eager to go through with it.

"Father, don’t rush it. I just found a place for you, but it’s going to cost a lot of money. Are you sure you want to do it?

Would Aunt Zhang object? Doing business is risky, and if it loses money, it won’t affect your relationship with Aunt Zhang, right?"

"You’re really shrewd," Xu Ying covered her mouth and chuckled as she watched him.

Huo Chen paused for a moment before quickly curling his lips into a smile.

"No, it won’t. Aunt Zhang and I have discussed it, and she wants to do the business too," Zhang Yanlin said excitedly, "Aunt Zhang and I have already found the place.

It’s just that Aunt Zhang and I are a bit short on funds. Could we borrow some from you?"

"Father, it’s not that I don’t want to lend you the money. Yingying and my funds are all invested in the rural tourism project.

Right now, I really can’t spare any extra cash, but I can help you borrow from someone else."

Zhang Yanlin’s emotions were fluctuating wildly, but upon hearing that his son could help him borrow money, he switched from anger to joy and said with a laugh, "Alright, as long as we can get the store opened.

Once we make money, I’ll pay your friend back.

Huo Chen, you are really a good son to your father, and Aunt Zhang and I thank you."

Huo Chen nodded, not forgetting to remind Zhang Yanlin, "Father, my friend is in Beijing. When can you come to get the money?

You missed the child’s one-month celebration before. When you come this time, I’ll take you out to eat, and then we can properly discuss the business."

"Okay, okay, okay, Aunt Zhang and I will set out to see you tomorrow," Zhang Yanlin said, hanging up the phone in excitement.

"Yuhua, pack up. We’ll leave for Beijing tomorrow.

Huo Chen said our franchise talks are settled, the location is previously chosen, and we can start business once the storefront is renovated," Zhang Yanlin said, rubbing his hands together with excitement all over his face.

Thinking of becoming a big boss, Zhang Yanlin wished he could burst into song.

Ever since their son had left, Zhang Yuhua had been disconsolate, and now she was ignoring her husband’s words.

Zhang Yanlin immediately grew angry and said sternly at her, "Are you going or not, Zhang Yuhua? If you’re not, then I’ll go by myself."

"Go where? Our son has left, and you’re not even a bit anxious. Do you think he finds me disgusting?" Zhang Yuhua asked with teary eyes as she looked at her husband.

Thinking back to the day her son left, seeing only disdain in his eyes when he looked at her, Zhang Yuhua couldn’t help but feel heartache.

She wondered what Zhiguo really thought of her, thinking she was shameless, a home-wrecker, and even responsible for someone’s mother’s predicament.

At that moment, all Zhang Yuhua felt was fear, wondering what if her son called the police.

"Yanlin, do you think Zhiguo will call the police?"
