Protagonist:

Li Xiulan

Zhang Sheng's side definitely won't be able to lend money.

The other party spoke up first to borrow money from him, directly blocking the path he wanted to borrow from.

Since Zhang Sheng's side can't lend money, Wang Erhai can only go borrow from others.

He thought of Niu Chunsheng.

"Uncle Chunsheng, I'm having a bit of a cash flow problem on my end, could you lend me some money for emergency use?"

This time, Wang Erhai didn't beat around the bush at all, but asked directly.

Because he was afraid Niu Chunsheng would seize the initiative like Zhang Sheng did, making him unable to even bring up the matter of borrowing money.

Niu Chunsheng was quite straightforward:

"Erhai, I know your company has run into difficulties recently. You can borrow money, but I can give you 500,000 at most. Any more and my wife might have opinions. She just got pregnant, I don't want to quarrel with her."

Niu Chunsheng has always been sincere; these words already showed great sincerity.

"Uncle Chunsheng, thank you, then the interest..."

Wang Erhai was moved inside. Although 500,000 wasn't enough to resolve the crisis he faced, it could at least solve the urgent need.

"No need for interest from you. What relationship do we have, still talking about interest."

Niu Chunsheng said so.

Wang Erhai was even more moved:

"Uncle Chunsheng, this money of yours, I will definitely return to you as soon as possible, thank you!"

But Niu Chunsheng said:

"To tell the truth, lending this 500,000 to you, I never planned to have you pay it back. Erhai, I know if I say too much you might get annoyed, be unhappy, but the situation is stronger than the person. If you don't cut losses when you should, you'll only sink deeper. You'd better close the company quickly, lie low for a period of time, then come out and do business again. Otherwise the hole will get bigger and bigger, and by then no one will be able to help you patch it up."

Hearing this, Wang Erhai felt very uncomfortable, but had to admit Niu Chunsheng's words were very reasonable.

But he simply couldn't stop.

Today the company just closes, tomorrow countless downstream intermediary companies, as well as several banks, will definitely swarm to his door to collect debts.

At that time, he might fall into the abyss, with no chance to climb up again.

Struggling now, although the chance isn't big either, at least there's still a sliver of a chance.

"Uncle Chunsheng, thank you for your advice, but my situation is even more complicated than you imagine."

Wang Erhai said so.

Niu Chunsheng could only sigh:

"Alright alright, you're not a child anymore. Some things you decide for yourself. Just, you also have to think of your mom. She raised you three brothers, extremely not easy."

Wang Erhai's heart trembled, his eyes reddened slightly:

"Uncle Chunsheng, please don't tell my mom about my matter. I don't want her to worry for me. Trouble you."

Niu Chunsheng then said:

"Rest assured, I definitely won't tell her. I haven't contacted her for a long time."

Wang Erhai, holding the 500,000, came out of Niu Chunsheng's company.

He lit a cigarette for himself, looking at the cars coming and going on the road ahead, and the bustling crowds of pedestrians. A sense of confusion and sorrow involuntarily rose in his heart.

Just then, his mobile phone rang.

He took it out to look — it was surprisingly his mother Li Xiulan calling.

"Hello, Mom, what's up?"

"Erhai, have you been doing okay recently?"

Mother's concerned voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Doing great! I'm a company boss, what could be bad?"

Wang Erhai forced himself to hold up, speaking a kind lie.

"That's good. I'm just afraid you'll mess up your life because of relationship matters."

Li Xiulan still didn't know Wang Erhai's company faced a huge crisis. She was still concerned about Wang Erhai's relationship matters. After all, before, between Wang Erhai and Yao Xueqin, Liu Mei Qi, such a big commotion had been stirred up.

"Speaking of, you really don't consider remarrying Mei Qi?"

Li Xiulan concernedly asked this sentence at this time.

"Mom, your son is so outstanding, why remarry her? There aren't no other women in this world! Anyway I can't stand her personality."

Wang Erhai gave a clear answer.

Li Xiulan then said:

"Then alright. Mom isn't insisting you remarry Liu Mei Qi. Just worried you'll be deceived by other women. That Yao Xueqin, that female goblin, she's not anything good. Mom has lived a big handful of years. You have to trust Mom's judgment."

"Mom, I and Yao Xueqin have already broken up. I also won't be together with her. Even if I wanted to be with her, Liu Mei Qi wouldn't agree. For my own good, and for Yao Xueqin's good, we peacefully broke up not long ago."

Wang Erhai sighed.

To this day he still feels Yao Xueqin's love for him was true love.

Because of this true love, so even though he knew Yao Xueqin set up a scheme that miserably trapped Liu Mei Qi, he still forgave Yao Xueqin's various evil deeds.

Separating from Yao Xueqin was purely because of Liu Mei Qi this mad dog's continuous harassment, that he had no choice but to make this decision.

To compensate for Yao Xueqin's devotion to him, he even took the initiative to give Yao Xueqin 500,000 in breakup money.

"That's good, that's good. As long as you're not together with that female goblin, anything can be discussed. But you're not young anymore either. Don't stay single forever. When you turn back, you must find time to look for a new partner. If work is too busy and you really have no time, then let us arrange a blind date for you."

A mother worries when her son travels a thousand miles; Li Xiulan, this mother, for the sake of her son, could be said to have worn her heart out with worry.

Wang Erhai's nose soured, he was about to cry:

"Mom, you don't need to worry about this. Once I'm done with the matters at hand, I'll go find a partner. Your son is this outstanding — finding a partner won't be anything but a piece of cake?"

Immediately after, he hurriedly said:

"Mom, I'm pretty busy with work. If there's nothing else, I'll hang up. When I have time later, I'll come back to Mountain Gully Village to see you and Dad!"

"Alright then, let's not talk anymore. That's it."

Wang Erhai hung up the phone, silently wiping the corner of his eye.

The call from his mother just now had reminded him.

He had previously given Yao Xueqin 500,000 as a breakup settlement.

At that time, Yao Xueqin told Wang Erhai that she wouldn't spend this 500,000 recklessly; she would treat it as safekeeping for Wang Erhai. If Wang Erhai ever had an urgent need in the future, as long as he asked, she would return the money without any hesitation.

Now, not much time has passed since this money was given to Yao Xueqin; Yao Xueqin shouldn't have spent it.

And Yao Xueqin truly loves him, so as long as he asks, there's no reason Yao Xueqin wouldn't give it back to him.

Niu Chunsheng's 500,000, plus Yao Xueqin's 500,000, that makes 1,000,000.

This one million, plus the spare cash he has on hand, should be able to keep Shanhai Real Estate afloat for a period of time.

Thinking it through like this, Wang Erhai perked up.

He hurriedly dialed Yao Xueqin's number:

"Hello, Xueqin, can we meet and talk?"

Yao Xueqin on the other end answered very crisply and decisively:

"Sure, you set the time and place, I'll be right there."

Wang Erhai said:

"How about we go to Zhou Ji for tea tonight?"

"Deal!"

Seeing Yao Xueqin agree so readily, Wang Erhai thought Yao Xueqin would definitely return that 500,000 to him.

After all, Yao Xueqin truly loves him.

500,000 in the face of true love — that doesn't count for anything.
