"Come in." The neat and tidy woman in a business suit raised her head from her busy schedule and let her in indifferently.
The assistant pushed the door open and tiptoed into the office, then said to her, "Boss Wen, Young Master Wen is here, and he brought a friend with him."
Wen Ruxia immediately put down her pen, a trace of surprise flashed across her dignified face: "Why is he here?"
The assistant said nothing.
Mainly, she didn't know why Wen Ziyu came to find Wen Ruxia.
Wen Ruxia didn't ask her. She stretched out her body and leaned back on the swivel leather chair, nodding slightly at her: "Let him in."
A few minutes later, Wen Ziyu rushed into his office. Without even sitting down, he hurried to her and said, "Aunt, have you heard that Uncle Jiang..."
"Stop!" Wen Ruxia propped herself up and stood up from the chair. She went to the water dispenser to get a glass of water, then came back and stood in front of the large desk, looking at him with a half-smile: "You kid, you're not still harboring unreasonable thoughts about chasing light, are you?"
Wen Ziyu was stunned by her teasing: "What are you talking about? I'm talking to you about Uncle Jiang..."
Wen Ruxia suppressed her smile and said, "I know."
Wen Ziyu looked at her in surprise again: "You know?"
Wen Ruxia took a sip of water to moisten her throat, then looked away, put the cup back on the table, and glanced at him unhappily: "Before you came to see me, Elder Nie and Jiang Li came to see me."
"Then..." Wen Ziyu looked at her expectantly.
Who knew that Wen Ruxia shook her head at him: "Things are not as simple as you think. There are people behind the scenes fanning the flames."
"… "
"I asked Jiang Li, and he said that when he first found this family, they obviously wanted money. He compromised for the sake of Uncle Jiang's reputation and agreed to give them one million yuan in hush money, and the family also agreed to keep their mouths shut. Who knew that when he went to find this family again the next day, the family's attitude changed 180 degrees, and they righteously stated that they would not sell their son. They refused to reconcile no matter what and wanted to make the matter a news event! They said they wanted justice for their son."
Wen Ziyu didn't expect Jiang Li to go to the other party in advance: "Why did they go back on their words?"
"Isn't it normal to go back on your word?"
Wen Ruxia was much more experienced than him, and was not surprised at all. She said calmly with bright eyes, "These people are here for the money! They will listen to whoever gives them more money. If someone gives them more than Jiang Li, they will choose to bite back."
Wen Ziyu pinched his palms, suppressed his anger and said, "So what is going on?"
"I asked Mr. Nie, and he said that this kid often hangs around outside the faculty dormitory of Tsinghua University, and sometimes does not go home at night, and often has injuries on his body."
"Your uncle Jiang helped him several times, and later found that his arms and body were often bruised. After asking, we found out that the child was beaten by his parents. There was no reason. Sometimes the couple liked to beat the child to vent their anger when they encountered something unpleasant. Your uncle Jiang felt sorry for the child and helped him again and again, taking him to see a doctor, feeding him, and bathing him."
"It was raining that day, and the child was beaten again, so he kindly took the child in for one night. The next day, he gave the child the key to the house, told him to have breakfast and go home, and gave him his phone number, telling him to call him if he had any questions. Then he went back to work at the school research institute."
