Before he went to bed at night, Ye Fei called Carl.
"Carl, I'm sorry. We were supposed to come to Qingshui City together, but there are too many people here, so I'm leaving first.”
"It's fine, it's fine. We were just about to stay here for two days!”
"Alright then. Give me a call in advance when you're coming over. I'll pick you up at the airport in Jiang City.”
"Alright, alright."
After chatting for a while, he hung up.
After a long day of traveling, Ye Fei was indeed tired. He got into bed and thought of Xia Yuchan's determined expression that she would study hard and go to high school with him. Ye Fei quickly fell asleep with a smile.
………………
The next morning, Ye Weiguo drove to Qingshui City with Cai Yuyan. They were planning to buy a house near Qingshui High, where Ye Fei was going to take the exam.
Xia Yuchan's cram school plan was also persuaded to be postponed to the new year, and Ye Fei would tutor her before the new year.
It just so happened that the weather outside was very cold, so the two of them were not going out. They decided to study hard at home. Their first goal was to finish their winter vacation homework.
Xia Yuchan must have taken yesterday's vow to heart. She didn't like to study in the past, and it was easy for her to jungle after reading for a while, but today she was very serious.
Ye Fei secretly paid attention to her for a while. Seeing that she was indeed doing her homework without any distractions, he took a copy of The Federal Reserve and read it carefully.
The cabinet air conditioner in the corner was delivering warm air.
On the sofa behind them, Chen Hong, who was knitting a sweater, looked at the two children who were studying seriously. The corners of her lips curled up into a happy arc.
When one was truly immersed in it, the originally boring learning would seem to become interesting.
Xia Yuchan felt that she had become smarter. Some of the difficult questions were no longer a problem, which gave her a small sense of accomplishment.
Of course, she was still helpless when it came to problems that were beyond her ability.
However, she would try her best and then ask Ye Fei for advice.
Time passed quietly.
Just as Ye Fei was explaining English grammar to Xia Yuchan, there was a sudden knock on the door and Zhang Rui's shout.
"Brother Fei, are you home? There's an emergency, come out quickly!"
"It's Zhang Rui's voice."
Xia Yuchan recognized him.
Ye Fei nodded and hurriedly went to open the door. He looked at Zhang Rui at the opposite door and asked,"What is it? Why are you in such a hurry?"
"Fei…Brother Fei, I was on my way to the internet cafe with someone else when I saw something happen to Yan Yue's family.”
Zhang Rui replied while panting. It seemed like he ran over.
"What do you mean? What happened?"
Ye Fei's expression changed slightly as he asked in a serious tone.
"Let's hurry over. I'll tell you on the way.”
Zhang Rui urged hurriedly.
"Good!"
Ye Fei nodded and turned to look at Chen Hong and Xia Yuchan, who were standing together, and said,""Xiaochan, Auntie Chen, I have something to do!”
"What happened? It's so scary. Why don't I go with you?”
Chen Hong said hurriedly.
"There's no need. A classmate's family is in trouble. I'm going to help. It's useless for you to follow.”
Ye Fei shook his head and refused. Then, he changed into his shoes and quickly walked out the door.
"Mom, I-I'll go and take a look too.”
Xia Yuchan said to her mother and also changed her shoes to go out.
"What are you going to do? Stay at home."
Chen Hong frowned and scolded.
"It's okay. I'm just going to take a look. Brother Fei is here.”
Xia Yuchan said and ran after him.
"Xiaochan!"
Chen Hong shouted and chased after them, but she saw that the three children had already gone downstairs. She could only shout anxiously downstairs.
"Run slowly, be careful!"
……………………
"Are you saying that there are many people blocking Yan Yue's house for money?”
Ye Fei frowned and asked after listening to Zhang Rui's description.
"Yes, I was anxious and didn't understand. I felt that the situation wasn't good, so I came to look for you.”
Zhang Rui struggled to follow him. As he spoke, he panted heavily." I, I'm a little tired. Slow down, slow down…"
"How do you know where Yan Yue's house is?”
Ye Fei looked at him with a puzzled expression and asked.
"I don't know. I happened to pass by and saw Yan Yue and her mother. Her mother was crying, and she was blocking in front of her. Those people refused to let her go and shouted at them to pay back the money.”
Zhang Rui explained intermittently.
Ye Fei and Xia Yuchan roughly understood.
Xia Yuchan was a little curious about who Yan Yue was. It sounded like a girl's name, but she knew that now was not the time to ask.
Yan Yue's house was not far from the neighborhood where Ye Fei and Xia Yuchan lived. The three of them arrived at the scene in about five or six minutes.
It was a two-story building on the side of the street. It was the kind of building built in the countryside.
From a distance of more than ten meters, Ye Fei and the other two saw more than ten people blocking the entrance of Yan Yue's house.
Most of them were burly men, but there were also a few women and old people.
On both sides of the three of them, many nearby residents were watching and discussing among themselves.
"Sigh, this mother and daughter are really pitiful!”
"They're all pitiful people. These debt collectors are also owed wages. They really can't celebrate the New Year!”
"This man is a scumbag. What kind of person is he? He took the money and ran away, leaving his wife and children to suffer.”
"That's right. This girl is strong enough. She even knows how to protect her mother. What a pitiful child.”
"Motherf * cker, don't let me see that man, or I'll break all three of his legs.”
“……”
Listening to these discussions, Ye Fei trio also knew some of the general situation.
Looking through the gaps in the crowd, one could see Yan Yue opening her arms to protect her crying mother. She was like an angry lion cub, glaring at the crowd at the door with red eyes and roaring.
"I already said we don't have money. If you want money, go find that bastard. We don't have money, how many times do I have to say it? Must you force us to death?"
"Little girl, don't scare us. We had no choice. If we could find your father, would we make things difficult for you two women?”
The middle-aged man leading the group said with a dark expression.
The others echoed loudly.
"That's right. Your father took away an entire year's salary. Our family is almost out of money. How are we going to spend the new year?”
"See if you can borrow money from your relatives. We have to have money for the New Year, right?”
"Call your dad and ask him where that bastard went!”
“……”
"I told you, we can't borrow money, we can't get through to the phone, and the police can't even find that bastard. How can we know where he is?”
Yan Yue shouted hysterically.
Not far away, Ye Fei looked at this scene with a thoughtful expression.
Fragments of memories from his previous life surfaced in his mind, connecting them one by one.
At this moment, he understood that this matter was very likely the turning point for Yan Yue to become like that.
