“Alright, just you wait.”
After saying this, Ma Yan turned around and left.
“President Ma, look at this mess. 1 didn’t know anything about it. She’s your daughter. Otherwise, 1 wouldn’t have done it no matter what.”
“What? Do whatever you have to do. Besides, I’m a person who only talks about the facts. Don’t do whatever she wants just because she’s my daughter. Alright, let’s not talk about this for now. It’s your first day of reporting. Go to the office and look for Editor Liu. From now on, you’ll follow him first.”
“Alright, I understand. I’ll have to trouble you then, President Ma. I’ll be leaving first and won’t disturb you.”
Xu Wenping had never been very satisfied with dealing with these leaders.
After all, he was only here temporarily, so there was no need to offend anyone.
The day was basically spent in a daze.
When he arrived at the magazine agency, Xu Wenping finally understood. What salesman? What bottom-level job? There was nothing to do at all. At most, he would help people pour water, run errands, deliver documents, and so on.
In the blink of an eye, it was time to get off work.
He watched as his colleagues packed their things and left the office.
After all, it was his first day here. Xu Wenping didn’t want to attract too much attention, so he stayed until 6:30 pm. When he found that there was no one else in the office, he got up and locked the door.
Coincidentally, just as he reached the door, he bumped into Ma Yan again.
“What’s going on? Why are you only leaving now? Didn’t the others already leave?”
“Oh, nothing much. I just tidied up a little, so I was delayed.”
Xu Wenping wasn’t very interested in this woman, so even if she talked to him, Xu Wenping would ignore her.
When had she, the daughter of President Ma, ever suffered such humiliation? It was as if Xu Wenping had suddenly aroused her infinite desire to challenge him.
“What? Is this how 1 talk to you? Is it because 1 messed with you today that you still won’t let me go?”
“I didn’t mean that. This matter has already passed, so 1 don’t want to pursue it. I’m sorry, 1 have to get off work and go home.”
Xu Wenping really didn’t want to waste any time on this woman.
He had never taken this woman seriously. Besides, he had higher ideals and goals.
He only treated the magazine agency as a springboard, so he would stay here for a while. When the time was right, he would turn around and leave.
However, he did not expect that this woman would not let him go at all. She kept blocking him. If he walked left, she would follow him to the left. If he walked right, she would follow him to the right.
Xu Wenping finally stood up. His brows were tightly knitted together. Then, he looked up at Ma Yan.
“What exactly do you want? I want to go home now. Besides, you offended me before, so I don’t want to pursue it anymore.”
“You don’t want to pursue the matter? What do you mean? Is it because my dad is the president? Let me tell you, you don’t have to take this seriously. If it’s right, you have to pursue it. By the way, how much are the clothes? 1’11 give it to you.”
As she spoke, Ma Yan started to take out money from her pocket. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Xu Wenping disappeared completely in front of her in the blink of an eye.
Xu Wenping didn’t know why, but he was in a very good mood when he heard the woman cursing behind his back.
During this period of time, Xu Wenping had been living a mediocre life in the magazine agency.
He could feel that the people in the magazine agency were all taking advantage of their seniority.
They treated Xu Wenping like a cow and let him do all the dirty work.
In addition, that Ma Yan would come over from time to time to give him some anger, and then from time to time, she would use their relationship to suppress him. To be honest, Xu Wenping had been holding it in.
Just like that, the days passed. About a month passed very quickly.
In the blink of an eye, it was the day to get paid. Although the salary was not a lot, this 2,000 yuan was the first huge income that Xu Wenping received after reincarnation.
He left the magazine agency early and went to the market to buy a lot of vegetables and meat, as well as some nutritional supplements, including the things that his parents liked to eat.
After careful calculation, all these scattered things added up to nearly half a month’s worth of his salary.
It didn’t matter. As long as the family was happy, Xu Wenping felt that everything should be worth it.
“Dad, Mom, look, what did I buy for you?”
At this moment, he rushed into the house excitedly. He saw that his parents were indeed sitting in the room, but he felt that the atmosphere was indeed a little solemn.
“Dad, Mom, what’s wrong?”
In the past, every time he came back, he would see the two of them talking and laughing. However, looking at their state today, something did happen.
Xu Wenping curiously placed those things on the table beside him and walked over to ask with concern.
“Wenping, you’re already so old, so there are some things that we can’t hide from you anymore. Today, the debt collectors are already coming to our door. They said that we can’t delay the payment any longer. They want us to return the 50,000 yuan to them immediately before the end of this month. Otherwise, they’ll sue us.”
“What is it? 50,000 yuan?”
“Yes, 50,000 yuan. This was borrowed for your mother’s treatment when our family was in the most difficult time. But now, we used money to delay time and time again. Now, it’s really impossible to delay.”
“Dad, then what do you mean? I just got paid today. Why don’t 1 give you the 1,000 yuan 1 have left?”
“Hehe, keep it. Your 1,000 yuan can’t solve anything at all. I’ve only managed to gather 10,000 yuan from your father, but I’m still 40,000 yuan away from the 50,000 yuan.”
“Dad, then, then what should we do? Why don’t 1,1 go out and think of a way?”
To be honest, even if Xu Wenping went out, he didn’t know who to borrow from.
Could it be that he could still look for his colleagues at the magazine agency? Moreover, these colleagues looked down on him.. How could they lend him money?
