Chapter 094: What a piece of trash

Su Mianmian had gone to the police station countless times, and they had always given her the same answer. "We're still investigating. Please wait a little longer."

She really wanted to curse out loud. What kind of speed was this? So slow!

Lu Xiangdong noticed that she had been in a daze all day long, and the car parked outside was still in an unrepaired state. He held a cup of tea in his hand and quietly walked behind her. "What are you thinking about? I see that you've been in a daze all day. Did you run into some trouble?"

Su Mianmian turned her body sideways and put her chin in her hands. She waved at him. "Don't bother me. I'm thinking about something."

What could possibly be bothering her so much? It was probably that car outside.

"Remember to wash the dishes in the pot," he said lightly as he turned around.

Su Mianmian came back to her senses. She glared at the back of his head and protested loudly, "Why do you want me to wash them? It's not like you don't know how to do it yourself."

"You cook, I wash the dishes. I cook, you wash the dishes." He did not want her to take advantage of him. His main goal was to make her learn how to cook seriously.

She did not like cooking or washing dishes.

"You win!" She stormed into the kitchen. She was at a disadvantage.

What annoyed her the most was not learning how to cook, but the car that she had spent more than a hundred thousand yuan on. She could not bear to spend the money to repair it. However, when she received news from the police station that she would probably have to wait for ten days to half a month, she did not have the patience.

It would be great if someone could help her pay for the repair. Her eyes suddenly lit up. She thought about asking Lu Xiangdong for the money, but she immediately dismissed this idea. Who could she ask for help? Besides him, not many of the people she knew had much money. Tang Wenyun and Xu Mengting didn't have much themselves. But there was another person she had forgotten about: Ouyang Que!

Lu Xiangdong wondered why Su Mianmian was so happy all of a sudden. He thought that maybe the car had been repaired, but when he looked at the car parked outside, he found it was the same old car. Why was she so happy?

Ouyang Que had promised her that he would protect. Now that she was in trouble, he surely would not just stand by and watch her struggle. She would call him to ask if he had any extra money on him. Then, she would lend him some money and return it to him when she had the money in the future.

Lu Xiangdong saw her mysteriously take the phone upstairs. As she walked, she talked to someone on the phone. It was strange to see this, and he wondered what she was scheming.

Ouyang Que did not expect Su Mianmian to invite him out for tea. He picked up the teacup and said with a faint smile, "Why are you suddenly thinking of me? Are you in some kind of trouble?"

Su Mianmian gave him a thumbs up. As expected, he had already guessed her plan.

"Do you have any extra money on you? Lend me some. I need it urgently!"

He looked at her. "What urgent need?"

"I just bought a new car, but the headlights and hood of the car were damaged. I need to send it for maintenance, but I spent all my savings on the car. I don't have any extra money to repair it." She laughed sheepishly. She thought that borrowing money from others was a very shameful thing. If she was rejected, she would want to jump off a building.

"Oh, how much do you want to borrow?"

She did not know how much she wanted to borrow. It was better to let him accompany her to the repair shop. When the repair bill was printed out, she could show it to him.

"I'm not very sure, but you can accompany me to the repair shop. When the time comes, you could pay for me."

Ouyang Que nodded. Since he had nothing to do today, he would accompany her to the repair shop.

Su Mianmian drove her car out of the villa and called Ouyang Que, who was standing by the roadside, into the car.

Ouyang Que did not trust her driving skills. He asked her to switch seats with him so he could drive.

"You don't have to doubt my driving skills. I drive well. It's just that some blind person drove recklessly and caused my car to crash like this."

She thought of the culprit again, and clenched her jaw in hatred.

"Why don't they compensate you? Why do you have to pay for the repairs yourself?"

"I wanted that to happen! But he ran so fast that I couldn't see a single hair on his head. Who am I going to ask to compensate me?" Su Mianmian seemed to have too many complaints that she could not voice out.

He smiled at her. "It's okay. I don't think the repair fee will be very expensive. I'll pay for it for you."

Su Mianmian's eyes immediately lit up. He was such a good person!

"Ouyang Que, you're much cuter than any other person I know. A kind man like you will definitely get a good reward." Su Mianmian cursed Lu Xiangdong.

He could not help but twitch at this statement. If there really had been a reward for him, he would not have been single until now. There was no use in listening to this.

"If you're willing to like me, I really believe that there is such a thing as a good reward in the world."

Su Mianmian looked speechless.

This man was humorous.

"I'm just teasing you. Look at how conflicted you are," he said with a half-serious smile.

Su Mianmian rolled her eyes at him. How boring.

He had been wrong. The repair fee was really expensive; It came to thirty thousand yuan! She might as well just smash the car and sell it for scrap metal. She had bought this broken-down car for a few hundred thousand yuan, but the repair fee was thirty thousand yuan! She really wanted to turn around and leave.

When Ouyang Que swiped his card, his did not even blink. Su Mianmian bit her finger at the side. How nice he was to give her the thirty thousand.

"It's fixed. Go and see if there are any problems. If there are any, get the master to fix it for you."

She closed the car door and tried the headlights. Everything showed that it was working. The car cover had been restored to a new condition.

She pushed open the car door and got out. She pressed her palms together and thanked him. "Thank you. It's all thanks to you today. I will think of a way to return the repair fee to you."

Before, she had considered extorting him for a sum of money, but now she had changed her mind. One should not be so unprincipled.

"There's no need to return it." He did not lack this bit of money at all. As long as she was happy, he was fine.

"No, I will definitely return it to you. Otherwise, I won't be able to live with my conscience."

"I said there's no need to return it. Why are you so stubborn?"

Thirty thousand yuan was not a small amount. It was as if he viewed money as dirt! Perhaps he was very rich. She hadn't thought of this before, but considering the situation, could it be that he was rich?

He saw her deep in thought and smiled. "I've thought of a good way for you to return the money to me."

Su Mianmian looked up at him and asked, "What way?"

"My friend has started a company. Tomorrow is the thirtieth anniversary celebration, and he needs a few ceremonial ladies to cut the ribbon. I wonder if I can get you to help? If it's possible, you can go to the venue and go through the motions. Then, I'll pay you thirty thousand yuan for your hard work. How about it?" He leaned back. He rested his hands on the edge of his chair and crossed his legs leisurely.

Su Mianmian felt that he had suffered a loss. She was happy to be a ceremonial lady, and she could even take advantage of the break and eat when she was at the venue. Why not?

"Alright, I'll take on this job."

He curled his lips into a faint smile. "Then I'll thank you on behalf of my friend."

The friend that Ouyang Que was referring to was none other than his older brother, Ouyang Fan. Tomorrow was the day that his older brother would take over the company. He just wanted to find a pretty courtesan for them.

Ouyang Que, who had just arrived at the door, bumped into Ouyang Fan. He was wearing a family uniform. Although Ouyang Fan was already married, he and his wife still lived together with them. His sister-in-law was a lawyer. Whether it was because of her family background or her appearance, she was extremely compatible with his older brother.

Ouyang Que smiled at him and said, "You haven't slept yet! Tomorrow is the day you take over. Don't tell me you're so busy that you don't even have time to rest?"

Ouyang Fan looked at his younger brother. There were some things that he wanted to discuss with him face to face. Taking over the company was not his idea, but his father's. He did not want Ouyang Que to misunderstand.

"Que, let's talk about the company."

Ouyang Que could guess what he was going to say next. He shrugged and threw his coat on the sofa. He put his hands on his older brother's shoulders and said with a smile, "Big brother, you don't have to feel sorry for me. The company is perfect for you. I'm just a bum waiting to die. If the company is handed to me, it will definitely collapse. Dad's decision was right."

Ouyang Fan felt uncomfortable. His brother was definitely smarter than him, but his brother's mind was not on the company, he did not care.

"Big brother, don't feel guilty about anything. I feel that my life is very good now. I don't want to make any changes, so don't be too tired. Rest early." He patted Ouyang Fan's shoulder and walked towards the stairway. Suddenly, a person stood at the top of the stairway. He raised his head and saw Ouyang Wei standing in front of him.

He was stunned. Had his father heard what he said? Ouyang Que called out shamefully, "Dad."

Ouyang Wei snorted. "Useless thing. Prepare to eat and die for the rest of your life. When I die, I'll see if you want your big brother to support you or let your woman support you."

He lowered his eyebrows and answered very softly, "I can support myself. I don't need to rely on anyone."

Ouyang Wei, who had begun to walk away, suddenly turned his head to look at him. He shot a sharp gaze at him as he gnashed his teeth. "I really regret sending you out of the country. I originally wanted to nurture you into a useful man, but now I realize that you're a waste. You rely on your family for everything."

Ouyang Fan tried to stand up for him. "Dad, just because he doesn't like to work in an office doesn't mean that he's useless. The company isn't mine alone. I hope that the two of us can manage the company together. If we work together, we'll be able to cut through all obstacles."
