Protagonist:

Lin Xiyu

"You just came back like that?"

Guben looked at the soda he had snatched away, quite speechless.

"Of course not. As soon as I heard that, I walked straight in, threw him a ten-thousand deposit, and bought the bed back."

Wang Fan showed off smugly. Without saying it outright, he had used Grandfather's name to throw his weight around, which made Fan Wei wary and forced him to give up the fat meat he had already gotten his hands on.

"You're that capable?"

Guben obviously didn't believe him and gave him a cool glance.

"Absolutely."

Wang Fan felt unnatural under his gaze and glanced away guiltily.

"To be honest."

Guben suddenly darkened his face, his aura shifting abruptly.

"I was using your grandfather's name......"

Wang Fan was so shocked his heart trembled. He dared not hide anything anymore and blurted out everything that had happened at the antique shop.

"You really know how to find trouble for me......."

Guben frowned tightly, glaring at him with great dissatisfaction.

"This guy is too ruthless."

Wang Fan gave an embarrassed laugh to defend himself: "He kept saying Lin Xiyu was the benefactor of his wife and children, then turned around and cheated them out of thirty thousand. I just can't stand people like that, so I wanted to teach him a lesson......"

"You're sure it was a lesson?"

Guben's eyes were cold: "Or was it bringing trouble on yourself?"

"With your grandfather around, he wouldn't dare cause trouble."

Wang Fan blurted out without thinking: "This silent loss, he's definitely eating it."

"I'm just afraid you'll bring trouble to your grandfather."

Guben asked in displeasure: "If this gets out and people say your grandfather used his power to force sales and purchases, have you thought about the consequences?"

"Uh."

Wang Fan choked and closed his mouth sheepishly.

"Forget it. Don't worry about this matter; I'll handle it."

Guben didn't want to make him too embarrassed. He forcibly restored his good mood and changed the subject: "Do you know why her family has to sell the bed?"

"I don't know that."

Wang Fan saw his expression improve slightly and quietly sighed in relief: "She's your mistress, not mine. I gave her money and she wouldn't take it, let alone tell me the truth."

"Why wouldn't she take it?"

Guben was troubled: "You didn't tell her I was the one who had you send it over?"

"I did."

Wang Fan's tone was sour, and even he felt his teeth ache hearing it: "She said, let you go give it to her yourself. Eighty percent she misses you and is looking for an opportunity to see you."

"Left."

Guben tilted his head back, downed the soda in one breath, and stood up from the sofa.

"Where to?"

Wang Fan asked knowingly.

Guben didn't want to deal with him and picked up the bicycle key from the tea table.

"Do you need to be in such a hurry?"

Wang Fan smirked lewdly: "You really can't wait even one minute? So eager for a tryst with the beauty?"

"How did you see I was going to find her?"

Guben was in a bad mood. He walked to the doorway, turned back, and kicked him: "You spent all the money, so what am I going to deliver?"

"You can go without delivering money, to comfort the beauty's mood."

Wang Fan winced in pain and stopped bickering: "She's in a bad mood, exactly when she needs comfort. Tell her the bed was bought back, she'll definitely be happy hearing that. Maybe in her excitement she'll even reward you with a kiss."

"Shut up."

Guben couldn't listen anymore and decisively stopped his nonsense: "Don't meddle in the bed matter, and don't tell her privately."

"Ah?"

Wang Fan was truly dumbfounded this time and didn't understand his meaning: "You're not taking the bed back to them? I thought you'd take this opportunity to curry favor with her grandmother?"

"Selling the bed caused too big a commotion."

Guben was meticulous: "Neighbors on both sides saw it. It's not suitable to send it back anymore. The more valuable something is, the more easily it invites trouble."
