A foreign city, dear you

Chapter 161 Accept the reality

When Cao Xueqian heard the knock on the door, he immediately became nervous.

Who's knocking on the door so late?

Isn't it a debt collector? Are you really urged to come home?

Is this too harsh?

"Dong dong, dong dong." The knock on the door rang again.

Cao Xueqian said to Ye Lian with a guilty conscience: "Go and open the door. Don't open it yet. First, look out through the peephole to see who it is."

After Cao Xueqian finished speaking, he still felt uneasy after thinking about it, and changed his mind: "Forget it, I'll go."

Cao Xueqian left the bedroom and walked towards the living room door.

Seeing Cao Xueqian being so frightened, Ye Lian was very confused and followed Cao Xueqian to the living room.

Cao Xueqian came to the living room door.

He first calmed down, put one eye against the cat's eye, and looked out from the cat's eye.

A dim circle appeared outside.

Cao Xueqian saw the back of a man.

Who is he?

Are you really here to block the door and collect debts?

Cao Xueqian's heartbeat actually accelerated.

"Who?" Ye Lian asked softly.

"Shh!" Cao Xueqian turned his head and put his index finger to his mouth to signal Ye Lian to keep quiet.

Cao Xueqian put his eyes on the cat eyes again.

The man had turned around and leaned a little closer. His face was enlarged and distorted by the cat's eyes.

But this face is very familiar. He is the security uncle.

Cao Xueqian was worried. He looked carefully and confirmed that there was only the security guard.

Cao Xueqian breathed a sigh of relief and opened the door.

"Uncle, what's the matter?" Cao Xueqian asked.

The security uncle looked inside the house and asked: "There was a complaint from an owner on the [-]th floor, saying that someone from one of the houses above is still playing the piano, which is affecting their rest. I will come up to each house and ask. Is it your house?"

So that's it, it was a false alarm, this security guard really knows how to pick the moment.

"No," Cao Xueqian shook his head: "My children have gone to bed long ago, and we are also ready to rest."

"Sorry to bother you." The security guard apologized.

Cao Xueqian also politely said it was okay.

Looking at the security guard walking away, Cao Xueqian closed the door.

"What are you doing? Are you so nervous? I thought the robbers were coming." Ye Lian asked strangely.

Cao Xueqian smiled bitterly: "It's not Boss Mo who did it. He took away all the money. The supplier couldn't find him, so he came to Wang Daqun and me. He said he would come to the company and home to find us, and said he would not let us go. . I’m afraid they will really do this and even hurt you and Lanshan.”

"But you have no money?"

"How can a supplier tell you so much? They want money anyway. Wang Daqun is even more troublesome. He has dealt with suppliers so much that he doesn't dare to go to the company, and he doesn't know if those people will come to his home to find him. "

"So serious?"

"He also asked me if I wanted to hide outside for a while."

"what?"

"I'm a little worried now. What if they stalk us and rely on the two of us? Do you think we should change places and hide for a while?"

Ye Lian was surprised when she heard this: "You are kidding me, changing places? Running around? Is that the case?"

"I'm mainly worried about you and Lanshan, I'm afraid they'll cause trouble for you two."

"Do you think it's like in a TV series?"

Cao Xueqian looked at Ye Lian and wondered why Ye Lian was so calm.

"Are you really not worried at all?" Cao Xueqian asked.

"It's true that the authorities are obsessed with it. Bystanders know better. Why should I be afraid?"

"How to say?"

The two of them had arrived in the bedroom. Ye Lian sat on the edge of the bed and began to express her opinion:

"These suppliers are not gangsters in society. They are all bosses, businessmen, and smart people. They all assess risks. In a place like Yancheng, time is money. They, the bosses, will use this precious Time to collect debt?

"Besides, they know that the money is not in your hands at all, and the hope of successfully recovering it from you is very slim. Spending precious time collecting debts is simply not worth the gain. They have made this calculation very clearly in their hearts.

"Instead of spending time blocking the door to collect debts, it is better to admit your defeat early, use this time to do other businesses, and earn back the losses from other businesses.

"They just call you to scare you. If they can scare you, that's the best. If the scare doesn't work, the most they will do is waste some phone bills.

"I see you are so scared that you still want to hide outside?"

Cao Xueqian was stunned for a while.

Is this still the lovable, gentle and gentle Ye Lian who needs his protection at all times?

Being so calm and sober, everything makes sense?

"Your analysis seems to be the same thing, so you don't need to pay attention to them?"

"Don't be afraid of them. Tell them that you are also victims. You want to find Boss Mo more. If there is news about Boss Mo, you will tell them as soon as possible."

"These words really don't seem to come from your mouth. When did you become a wise man?" Cao Xueqian smiled.

"I don't know how I can understand these things. Maybe it's because I've been in Yancheng for a long time, and because I'm an outsider, I can see it more clearly." Ye Lian actually felt a little proud in her heart, feeling that she too She can help her husband solve his problems.

At this moment, the two people temporarily forgot about the failure of their business and the losses they had suffered. They were also happy and grateful to have analyzed the logic of not having to worry about being blocked for debt collection.

But when they relaxed and no longer worried about being blocked for debt collection, they slowly returned to the sad reality of business failure and loss of money.

However, the matter has come to this, no matter how sad or sad, we can only accept it.

"If you lose, you lose. Take it as a lesson. We can just go to work honestly in the future. Don't think about making a fortune in business." Ye Lian comforted Cao Xueqian.

"Ah."

"It's best for you to have less contact with Wang Daqun."

"Ah."

Cao Xueqian responded with "Yeah, yeah" and listened to whatever Ye Lian said.

He originally thought that Ye Lian would cry, make trouble, and "ask him for punishment", but he didn't expect that she could help calmly analyze and comfort him.

What else does he have to say? What else can't you agree to?

Although he knew that Wang Daqun didn't have any bad intentions when he came to do business with him, he was not in a hurry to argue with Ye Lian now.

The night is deep.

The two had been lying on the bed chatting for a long time.

Slowly, Cao Xueqian couldn't resist his sleepiness and fell asleep without realizing it, snoring slightly.

Ye Lian was not sleepy at all. She was thinking about the [-] yuan loan and staring at the white ceiling...
