Chapter 62

When Huang Xiaojuan gave Niu Ben money for the first time, it was difficult for him to understand her true meaning. He thought that it might be that she wanted to help him with his financial difficulties. He never thought of asking her money for free. In front of Director Yang, she once again gave him a lot of money and later passbooks. He understood what they meant. He was very grateful to Director Yang for his care and promotion. He was a person who would repay kindness. When Director Yang had difficulties and needed him, he would stand up without hesitation. He accepted Huang Xiaojuan's later money and passbooks. Based on this kind of gratitude-receiving consideration, he even imagined that if something happened to Director Yang and Huang Xiaojuan, he would immediately take on Yang Yang's responsibilities of raising Yang Yang and treat Yang Yang as his biological daughter. At that time, he might naturally combine with Liu Yàn.

Now that these conditions no longer exist, he doesn't want to take on this responsibility. The money belongs to Huang Xiaojuan, and it is natural to give it back to her. Niu Ben has never hesitated. What made him hesitate was when he would return the money without causing any problems. He also knew that Huang Xiaojuan might have ideas when he returned the money.

Realistically proved Niu Ben's idea. He saw Huang Xiaojuan's reaction to his return of money. Her eyes were full of questions. Niu Ben read out these questions. He was crying for Huang Xiaojuan's eyes. Niu Ben could feel that there was a strong emotional component in it. He had no other way to calm Huang Xiaojuan down immediately. He could only find some words that he thought were more convincing to explain that he had no other meaning to return the money.

Niu Ben said: Sister, don’t be too careful. Give me money. I understand your good intentions. I will remember this sincere family and friendship. But I cannot ask for the money for the time being. If I need it, I will lend it to you. I don’t think you won’t lend it to me, right?

Niu Ben wanted to use this little humor to resolve the current predicament. Liu Yàn saw my aunt's doubts and said slowly to Niu Ben: Ben, my aunt told me that you are in financial difficulties now. My aunt wants to help you, so I brought you this money. Now I still have 2,000 yuan and am planning to go out to buy clothes tomorrow.

Niu Ben said in as warm as possible: I know your aunt's kindness, and I also know the sincerity of you to help me selflessly.

Liu Yàn said: Stupid, is this OK? I will take the passbook and let’s use the money first. When we have it, we will return it to my aunt.

Huang Xiaojuan immediately nodded and said: Brother, just follow what Yànzi said, I know you are using money now.

Niu Ben pondered for a moment and said: Is this OK? Liu Yàn, you can take out the money and save it for us. Let's talk about it when we come back this time.

Liu Yàn looked at Huang Xiaojuan with inquiring eyes. Huang Xiaojuan looked straight at Niu Ben for a while and said: Brother, I'll tell you the truth. You have to answer me truthfully, okay?

Niu Ben said sincerely: Sister, don’t worry, I never tell lies.

Huang Xiaojuan asked: Is it related to going to Sun Jie's house tonight?

Niu Ben answered without hesitation: Sister, you are too worried about this. Sun Jie and I are just ordinary colleagues. Not only does it have nothing to do with this money, but nothing will happen between me and her in the future.

Liu Yàn grabbed Niu Ben's hand and said: Benniu, are you saying true? Is Sun Jie really asking you to the house to thank you?

Niu Ben said seriously: I don’t know if they have any ideas, I just know that I don’t have that idea.

Huang Xiaojuan looked at Niu Ben and said: Brother, I believe what you said, but I really want to help you. It turns out that I didn’t plan to ask for it, so you still stay. Your life is too hard. At the top of my mind, you will have a cold and your health is not good. There is no way to talk about anything else.

Niu Ben said gently: Sister, I understand your mood, and please understand my mood and thoughts. It’s not that I don’t need your help. When I say I have a cold, you two will come. I am very happy. With the care of you two, I think it’s more important than anything else.

Huang Xiaojuan asked: Then can you go out with Yànzi tomorrow?

Niu Ben said sincerely and slightly exaggeratedly: I will naturally accept this love, and I don’t say anything like thank you. Don’t want it for nothing. Who told your aunt Liu Yàn?

Huang Xiaojuan said: Okay, I will deposit the money first and withdraw it when you two need it. This money belongs to you two, but I will keep it for you for the time being.

Liu Yàn looked at Niu Ben and said: We must do this kind of love from my aunt. We will come back to pay it back when my aunt is old.

Niu Ben smiled and said: Don’t just talk, this is the second time I have heard you say this.

Huang Xiaojuan said: This child is very thoughtful and honest. He is what he says and does what he says and you can feel it in your future in life.

Niu Ben said: I'm just kidding, Liu Yàn won't mind, right?

Liu Yàn said coquettishly: I just mind, it depends on what you do, who asked you to provoke my relationship with my aunt.

Huang Xiaojuan stood up and said: Then stay with me, I'm leaving.

Niu Ben said: Liu Yàn should go back too, it’s not good to stay.

Liu Yàn said: Don’t go to work tomorrow, I want to talk to you tonight.

Niu Ben said: Look at me having a cold, and I fell asleep in a daze after a while. I was not in the mood to say anything to you. I still want to stay, a girl’s house, and let people know that it is not good.

Liu Yàn said: I'm not afraid, in short, I'm yours, so you can say whatever others like.

Niu Ben looked at Huang Xiaojuan with begging eyes. Huang Xiaojuan thought for a while and said: Then forget it, Yànzi, Niu Ben is right. Now is a troublesome time. You stay and let others know. Not only do you say you, but also Niu Ben. Let's go back.
