Chapter 1027: Chapter 1021: Xue Bing Looks for Lu Tianxing

"Cousin, please, help me one more time, just this once, just help me this once, I promise there won’t be a next time...."

Hearing no response from Xue Man, the sound of desperate pleading came again from the other end of the phone.

"How much?" Xue Man took a deep breath and asked.

"Two... two hundred thousand."

"Two hundred thousand, Chen Hao, you’ve lost so much again."

Xue Man’s voice suddenly rose several notches, filled with anger: "Do you know how much money I have given you over this past year, how many times I’ve cleaned up your mess? Why can’t you just learn a lesson? I’m telling you, Chen Hao, this is the last time. If you gamble again in the future, I won’t give you a penny. Back then, I was soft-hearted because Uncle Chen is already old and I was afraid he couldn’t take the blow, so I didn’t tell him about you being expelled from school for gambling. But look at what you’ve become now, you’re just a piece of trash, a scum of society."

Xue Man’s fingers were tightly clasped together, squeezing a pen into fragments, which made it clear how deeply angry she was inside.

"Cousin, you have to believe me. I can guarantee, this is the last time, absolutely the last time."

"Remember, this is the last time."

Xue Man threw down the words and immediately hung up the phone, a bitter smile appearing on her face.

Chen Hao had promised her like this before, each time he’d forget right after, gamble again, lose everything, borrow from loan sharks, and then be threatened to repay. She had lost count of how many times she’d cleaned up Chen Hao’s mess, amounts ranging from several thousand to hundreds of thousands.

She had thought several times about telling this to Chen Hao’s father, but each time she retreated at the crucial moment. Chen Hao’s father was already old and couldn’t take such a blow, and Chen Hao getting into Beijing University was perhaps the proudest thing in his father’s life, something brag-worthy.

If she told him about this, Chen Hao’s father might collapse on the spot, turning the family’s pride into the most despised gambler he’d loathe his whole life. Such a shift from Heaven to Hell could break anyone.

She couldn’t do that, nor would she, because Chen Hao’s father was the lifesaver of her entire family.

Yet, if no firm measures were taken, letting Chen Hao continue down this path, he would only end up in a criminal abyss.

Sighing deeply, Xue Man opened her computer, logged into her online banking, entered Chen Hao’s bank account, and transferred two hundred thousand to him.

After doing all this, Xue Man felt completely drained, collapsing into the chair, her eyes staring blankly at the ceiling, revealing a deep fatigue and helplessness.

"What should I do, what can I do, just let him go on like this?"

Xue Man whispered to herself, with a silhouette suddenly flashing through her mind. Can he help me?

...

Meanwhile, the plane from Beijing to Modu finally arrived at Modu Airport, descending slowly from the sky and landing smoothly on the runway, coming to a stable stop at the designated parking area after covering some distance.

As the plane came to a stop, under the guidance of the flight attendants, all passengers began picking up their luggage and disembarking one by one from the plane.

Lu Tianxing and the two others also slowly disembarked. Upon exiting, Lu Tianxing breathed a sigh of relief, finally home, while Bai Zhiqing and Lin Qianru shared similar expressions on their faces.

The journey to Beijing had been fraught with crises; any mistake in any one of those crises could have cost them their lives. Now, they were finally back in Modu, away from Beijing’s land of trouble.

"Wife, should we go home first, or to the ancestral house to see Grandpa and the others?" Lu Tianxing asked Bai Zhiqing.

"Let’s go back to the apartment first! We can visit Grandpa in the evening if we have time."

Bai Zhiqing thought for a moment, then turned to Lin Qianru, "Qianru, are you planning to come back to the apartment with us, or go home first?"

Hearing Bai Zhiqing, Lin Qianru paused for a moment and then said, "I’ll go home first. I have some things to sort out."

"Okay, that’s good. We’ll discuss the moving details at the company tomorrow; let’s see if there’s anything else we need to buy." Bai Zhiqing mused.

"Alright, Zhiqing, I’ll head back now."

"Should I have Lu Tianxing drive you back?"

"No need, Zhiqing. There are taxis outside the airport; I’ll just take one home."

Lin Qianru smiled and declined Bai Zhiqing’s offer, dragging her suitcase as she turned and walked outside.

Watching Lin Qianru leave, Lu Tianxing sighed and said, "Wife, let’s go too. There’s no need to call Weiwei to pick us up; let’s give her a surprise."

"No problem."

The two of them walked out of the airport together.

Just as Lu Tianxing and Bai Zhiqing were about to leave the airport terminal and hail a taxi home, a clear voice suddenly sounded behind Lu Tianxing: "Lu Tianxing."

Lu Tianxing turned around instinctively and saw a tall woman with fair skin, like peeled egg white, dressed in a white shirt with a black blazer on top, possessing a great figure and exuding a bit of heroic spirit in her eyebrows, creating a chic and dynamic impression.

This woman was none other than the flower of the Modu Police Station, also Xue Man’s sister — Xue Bing.

"Officer Xue, why are you at the airport? Don’t you need to work?"

Lu Tianxing looked Xue Bing over and asked, puzzled, "And why are you calling me? I haven’t been in Modu recently and haven’t done anything wrong, right?"

"Hmph, nothing good comes out of a dog’s mouth."

Xue Bing rolled her eyes at Lu Tianxing and smiled brightly at Bai Zhiqing, "Sister Zhiqing."

"Xiao Bing, why are you at the airport?"

"Hehe, I asked my sister, she told me, so I specially came here to wait for Sister Zhiqing." Xue Bing said with an embarrassed smile. noveldrama

Bai Zhiqing looked slightly puzzled: "To wait for me?"

"To be precise, I’m waiting for Lu Tianxing. Isn’t he very capable in Modu? I encountered a case recently and wanted to ask Lu Tianxing for help."

"Seeking Lu Tianxing’s help?"

Bai Zhiqing was a bit stunned, but then nodded, "Alright, I’ll hand Lu Tianxing over to you. Lu Tianxing, I’ll just head back by myself, you stay and help Xiao Bing."
