The Fu family members’ faces fell.
Especially Eldest Fu’s family—all four of them had jobs!
He—this was a blatant threat!
"Oh, heavens, look at this! We’re being pushed to our deaths—"
Old Mrs. Fu plopped herself right on the ground and began to wail.
Fu Mingxue was at a loss.
’This trick again?’
She turned her head to look at the man beside her.
He spoke with a calm expression. "It seems they prefer my solution after all. Honey, let’s head back. I’ll go find their unit supervisors in a little while—"
Fu Mingxue was completely smitten by how cool he was.
’God, this man is amazing!’
"—Okay!"
Without a moment’s hesitation, the two of them turned and left.
This sent the Fu family into a panic.
That included Old Mrs. Fu, who was still making a scene on the floor.
’She couldn’t believe it. Even with her carrying on like this, the man hadn’t even batted an eye.’
’Anyone else would have rushed to help her up, wouldn’t they?’
They watched as the couple was about to walk out the main gate.
Eldest Fu grew frantic. "Dad—"
’He didn’t know if the man really had that kind of power, but what if he did?’
’Hadn’t he heard the man? He talked about meeting their unit supervisors as if they were his own subordinates.’
Third Brother Fu was panicking too.
Two people in his family had jobs, and they couldn’t afford to lose them.
"Dad, say something, quick!"
Old Man Fu’s face was grim. "Wait. We’ll get the money."
As soon as he said that, Third Brother Fu breathed a sigh of relief.
’He didn’t care about the money.’
’Besides, Eldest Fu and his family were the ones who had profited from it.’
’As long as he wasn’t the one paying, he was fine with it.’
"No! I won’t allow it—" Old Mrs. Fu shrieked.
"Shut up," Old Man Fu barked. Old Mrs. Fu immediately clamped her mouth shut.
Mrs. Fu had been worried, but when she saw her wonderful son-in-law still carrying the two bags, she flared up.
"Did they bully you?"
Before Qin Wenhao could say a word, Fu Mingxue chirped excitedly, "Mom, we got the money back! Your son-in-law is incredible—"
She rattled off the entire story of what had just happened at the old family home.
Mrs. Fu’s eyes widened as she listened.
’Good heavens, was her son-in-law really that capable?’
"Here, it’s all here." Fu Mingxue took out the money and placed it in her mother’s palm.
Mrs. Fu looked down at the money in her hand, and her eyes suddenly turned red.
All those years ago, her husband had passed away.
The Fu family had immediately snatched away the survivor’s benefits that were sent for him.
Her daughter was so young back then—and the Fu family, with nearly a dozen members, were all vicious and cruel.
They had even threatened that if she didn’t hand over the money, they would take her daughter and force her to remarry.
She had been completely isolated and helpless back then.
’At the time, she had thought that as long as she still had her job, she could let the money go.’
She never imagined that, one day, her son-in-law would be the one to get that money back for her.
