Chapter 203 Difficult Situation
Xu Ye: "..."
The dogs were all leashed and couldn't possibly pounce on the two people. Wasn't this woman's reaction a bit too much?
Li Ming slapped his forehead hard and said in a flustered manner, "Sorry, sorry, I forgot to remind you. This was sent by Hongsheng people. Their purpose is to prevent anyone from coming to talk to me about the demolition."
"We only put them on a leash today because Wang Mingsheng came by; normally we don't even use leashes for our dogs."
Xu Ye waved his hand, took a few steps back while holding Yang Ling, and then put her down.
Yang Ling's face had turned completely crimson.
Fortunately, the commotion had alerted the people inside the factory.
She was a woman around thirty years old, holding a little boy of three or four years old in her arms.
Li Ming was worried that his wife wouldn't be able to keep things to herself, so he didn't tell them what happened yesterday.
The two of them naturally did not know the identity of the person who came.
The boy was quite outgoing and bold. Looking at Xu Ye and his companion with innocent curiosity, he asked, "Dad, are we having guests?"
The woman thought they were there to forcibly demolish the house, so she quickly reassured her daughter: "They are your father's friends. They have something to talk about. Please come inside."
After saying that, he put the child down and gestured for him to go back first.
After he left, turning back every few steps, the woman's face immediately turned cold: "You, surnamed Li, I can bear to suffer with you all by myself, but the child is innocent."
"I don't blame you for being incompetent, but can't you act like a man and stop dragging our child down with you?"
"I've already said this is not something we should get involved in, but you insisted on getting involved, making my son and me worry about you every day. Have you given up all your conscience?"
The husband was a compulsive gambler and owed more than a million yuan.
He suddenly returned home more than half a year ago, saying that his luck had turned around.
The results of it?
He took over a sand and gravel plant without really knowing what he was doing and became some kind of worthless factory manager.
Of course, at the time, this was indeed a good thing.
Even she believed that her husband had truly turned over a new leaf, started a business with someone, and that their lives had a new hope.
It turned out that everything was an illusion. The land where the factory was located was to be demolished. The most important point was that the person who gave her husband the land simply wouldn't allow them to agree to the demolition!
Nobody's a fool. As things escalated, they finally understood.
This involves a momentous matter: the struggle between Hongsheng and the Yang family!
That's not all. The most crucial point is that it is because of them that the construction of Jiangxin Bridge has been affected, hindering the development of the entire northern district!
How could this not make people hate it?
So the end result was that they became the target of everyone's anger in the entire North District. Not only were they condemned by everyone, but they also had to live in fear at night!
Throwing stones and breaking windows is the least of it; some people even throw excrement. After all, the northern district was about to develop, and everyone's lives would soon improve, and land and houses would become more valuable. But because of them, all of that has been ruined.
She wanted to take her child away to hide, but she couldn't even get out of the factory gate.
This is inevitable; otherwise, how could Hongsheng have trusted her husband to transfer the factory to him for nothing?
They are bargaining chips, the biggest bargaining chips to threaten their husbands!
But I can forgive myself, the child is innocent!
She's three and a half years old, and other children her age are already in kindergarten.
The son, however, couldn't even leave the house, living in constant fear, and could only keep company with the few wolfhounds in the yard.
Is this the kind of life a normal person should live?
The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. With red eyes, she looked at Xu Ye and his companion and said, "You're here to talk about demolition too, aren't you?"
"Let me tell you the truth: if you want to discuss demolition compensation, don't come to us; go find those people outside!"
"He has no say in the demolition issue at all; he's an idiot who got scammed himself!"
Xu Ye's lips twitched, and Yang Ling's expression also turned strange.
Li Ming wished he could disappear into a crack in the ground, but he had no way to explain, so he could only give a wry smile and say awkwardly, "I'm sorry, I haven't told them about what happened last night."
Yang Ling showed him no mercy, coldly saying, "Your sister-in-law is right, you really are a fool. If you were a man, you should have taken responsibility for these things yourself."
"It's one thing to be stupid yourself, but to drag your wife and children down with you and use them as pawns is something only a truly stupid person would do."
"This time, Mr. Xu and I can help you, but if there's a next time, even if others let you off the hook, I will absolutely not let you go!"
Li Ming had also learned his lesson, and said with a face full of shame, "President Yang is right. I was foolish. I'm not human."
"I was fortunate to meet two benefactors this time, otherwise, if I had really dragged them down... I could never repay them even if I went to hell!"
The woman was stunned when she heard this: "What...what do you mean by this?"
Yang Ling stepped forward and said gently, "Hello, sister-in-law. Let me introduce myself. I am Yang Ling, the CEO of Yang's Group."
After pausing for a moment, she continued, "Don't worry, I'm not here to cause you trouble. On the contrary, we're here to help you solve your problems."
The woman was still somewhat dazed: "Help us solve our problem?"
Yang Ling knew this matter couldn't be explained in just a few words, so she smiled and said, "Why don't we go inside and talk?"
Li Ming quickly chimed in, "Yes, yes, let's go inside and chat. Honey, hurry up and get some water."
The woman glanced at Xu Ye and his companion, then at her husband, but ultimately said nothing and turned to go back to the dormitory.
Although it was called a dormitory, it was more like a temporary shed set up on a construction site. Because people came to vent their anger every day and had to cooperate with Hongsheng's people to put on a show, the environment inside the factory was extremely bad.
The filth and mess were secondary; the main problem was the stench—an unbearable, stench that even Xu Ye found hard to stand, let alone Yang Ling.
Xu Ye could no longer contain himself and said with a livid face, "Li Ming, you really know how to let your wife and children live like this!"
The look of guilt on Li Ming's face grew even stronger.
After his wife brought the water over, Xu Ye stood up and said, "Sister-in-law, don't be busy, sit down, let's talk about this."
The matter was quickly clarified.
The woman finally understood.
She asked uncertainly, "You mean, you can send us out first?"
Xu Ye nodded: "That's right, you can choose the location, but it's best to choose a foreign country, that would be safer."
Yang Ling added, "We definitely can't stay in Jiangcheng, at least not until things are resolved."
“If you trust me, you can leave the itinerary to me.”
"If you don't trust it, you can choose a trustworthy method yourself."
“Once you’ve reached a safe place, send a message to your husband, and then we’ll discuss what to do next.”
