Chapter 253. Professor Yu, please be gentle

Lu Ke quickly brought the news to Wen Li.

It was An Wen's mother who reported the fire hazard in Wen Li Studio. It was also An Wen's mother who made persistent phone calls and demanded a thorough investigation of the fire problem.

Lu Ke smiled and said to Wen Li on the phone, "Little Wen Li, it seems that you have offended someone in trouble this time."

Wen Li frowned.

When opening a business, the thing I fear most is encountering someone like Anwen’s mother who is as sticky as sticky candy. You can’t drive her away, and you can’t scold her. She keeps buzzing around you like a fly, which is so annoying.

She asked Lu Ke, "Is there any solution?"

Lu Ke said, "There must be a way to deal with this kind of person, it just depends on whether you want to use it. The simplest way is to find a few people to intimidate her, and most people will be scared."

Wen Li thought it wouldn't be that simple. She said, " I've dealt with her daughter before, and I feel that she's extremely shameless. This mother is probably even worse. Moreover, she and her daughter are used to relying on Huo Yuanchen. If you really find a few people to threaten her, Huo Yuanchen will probably find out the next day. He's a man who protects his shortcomings and is unreasonable. Who knows how he'll retaliate."

Lu Ke stopped talking. He was not afraid of Huo Yuanchen, but from Wen Li's words, he could hear resentment towards Huo Yuanchen.

If she didn't still care about him, how could she blame Huo Yuanchen for always protecting others?

He smiled bitterly and asked her into the microphone, "So what do you want to do?"

Wen Li thought for a moment and said, "I seem to have heard Zhou Ying say that An Wen's family also runs a small business in the small county town where they came from. Why don't we give her a taste of her own medicine? She has to take care of her own business, so she won't have the energy to bother us."

Lu Ke agreed.

He asked someone to check the small supermarket run by An Wen's mother, and followed suit and reported the fire safety issues.

He was afraid that this alone would not be enough to overwhelm Anwen's mother, so he simply reported the tax issue as well.

Anyway, there is no harm in checking it out.

Unexpectedly, An Wen's mother found many problems at once without any investigation.

First, the supermarket had a serious fire hazard and was ordered to suspend business for rectification. Then, tax evasion was discovered and the supermarket had to pay a large amount of taxes and fines, and might also face criminal penalties.

When Wen Li received the news, she was also stunned. She couldn't imagine how An Wen's mother would have the nerve to report her when she had so many problems of her own.

At the same time, she was secretly glad that there were many flammable materials here, and she paid special attention to fire protection issues when decorating the studio, so no problems were found.

Wen Li asked Lu Ke, "How long will An Wen's mother be imprisoned?"

Lu Ke told her, "This is not her first offense. The Yin-Yang account book problem was discovered three years ago. This is a repeat offense, and it will take at least half a year."

Wen Li felt that An Wen's mother deserved it, and she did not feel guilty just because she was the one who suggested reporting it.

Her life went on as usual. Occasionally, when Zhou Ying didn't have classes, she would go over and make an appointment for dinner.

Zhou Ying told her, "Yu Jingchen introduced me to a job at Yu Group. The work there is not as tiring as it is now. It's a regular 9am to 6pm schedule, and the salary is only a little lower than it is now, but the difference is not that big."

Wen Li's eyes lit up, "That's a good thing."

Zhou Ying’s current tutoring class is too tiring. She has to attend classes six days a week and every day is packed.

Wen Li didn't want her to work so hard.

Zhou Ying paused and said, "But I'm working as a clerk in an overseas branch. I don't have any other advantages except my English."

Wen Li was stunned for a moment, "Are you going abroad? Yu Jingchen wants you to go abroad?"

Zhou Ying said, "He told me to make my own choice."

Wen Li asked her, "What do you think?"

Zhou Ying shook her head. "I haven't made up my mind yet. This job is really tiring, but I don't want to go overseas. You know my family situation. My parents, brother and sister-in-law, and younger brother and sister-in-law are all in China. If I go overseas, what will happen to them?"

Wen Li thought about it and sincerely suggested to her, "Then talk to Yu Jingchen and ask him how that overseas job will help your career prospects? If you really don't want to go abroad, then continue to submit your resume and quit your job after you find a new job."

Zhou Ying nodded and said that she would talk to Yu Jingchen.

A few days later, Wen Li thought about this matter after get off work at night, so he called to ask Zhou Ying what she thought.

Unexpectedly, it was Yu Jingchen who answered the call.

She was stunned for a moment, then asked hurriedly, "Where's Zhou Ying?"

Yu Jingchen said, "The student who complained about Zhou Ying before wanted to enroll in a cram school because her English grades were so bad, and unexpectedly found Zhou Ying's workplace. The student complained about Zhou Ying again. She was fired today and was in a bad mood, so I came to accompany her."

Wen Li was anxious, "Then I 'll go find her."

Yu Jingchen paused and said in a strange tone, "It might not be convenient for you to come now."

Wen Li's movement to take the car keys paused. Just as he was about to ask what was so inconvenient, he heard Zhou Ying's voice on the phone. She said that she had finished taking a shower and asked Yu Jingchen if he wanted to take a shower too.

As someone who has been through this, Wen Li suddenly realized something.

She said with a complicated expression, "Zhou Ying doesn't have much experience, Professor Yu, you... need to be gentle."

Then he hung up the phone.

The next day, she wanted to ask about Zhou Ying's situation and was quite dissatisfied with Yu Jingchen.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I turned on the phone, I received a call from Huo Yuanchen.

He said, "I'm downstairs in your house. I need to talk to you."

Wen Li said, "I'm not free right now."

He insisted, "Your car is still downstairs. You haven't left the house at this hour. I ordered breakfast for you and told the waiter to bring it up in fifteen minutes. It's just enough time for you to wash up, change clothes and go out."

Wen Li gritted his teeth and asked, "Why do I have to go?"

Huo Yuanchen said calmly, "I want to see you."

Wen Li wanted to say that she didn't want to see him.

But he had already continued, "Of course, I can also come to your house with breakfast. It's your choice."

Wen Li chose her to go out and meet him.

Since they have broken up, she doesn't want Huo Yuanchen to come to her house anymore. Just like the ownership of the territory, she doesn't want him to interfere in her territory.

At first, she didn't know why Huo Yuanchen wanted to talk to her about this, but when she pushed open the door and saw An Wen sitting next to him, wrapped tightly in three layers of clothes, she understood his intention.

Seeing her come in, An Wen reached out and pushed Huo Yuanchen, looking at her with undisguised resentment in her eyes.

Huo Yuanchen also looked up at her, frowning slightly, with a look of disapproval.

The two of them sat side by side, and it didn't look like they were here to discuss something with her, but rather to confront her with a question.

Wen Li walked over and sat down opposite them, without even looking at An Wen, just staring at Huo Yuanchen.

"Professor Huo, are you here to see me because you missed me?"
