CH 83

The pretty lady was probably Mr. Yang’s wife, and from what it looked like, I assume she is the actual boss, but with that in mind, an idea came to my mind.

Yes, I will need to threaten him, but he forced me to do this, I just need to tell his wife about Yang Han Lu, and see what happens then.

But I still feel guilty about doing this, and I’m worried about Mr. Yang being angry at me, so for now that will be a last resort.

I left and kept thinking about it while walking, then went and tried to find Lin Yin Yin at her house. She always goes to school during the day to study, so I didn’t get to see her, but I saw Ah Li cleaning.

I looked around to make sure Lin Yin Yin's father wasn't there before I went over. Ah Li also saw me and smiled gently: "Are you here to see Yin Yin?"

I said I was looking for you, to thank you for helping me. She smiled: "I think you have something else to do."

I smiled, it seemed like she had something to say, so I asked directly: "Did your husband finally say anything?"

Ah Li nodded: "He told me about some guy, and that he was a no good man, he destroyed someone's family, and then abandoned that woman later to live with another rich girl."

I was stunned when Ah Li continued: "Yin Yin's father said he was just a talentless guy who was hand-held into the position he's in now."

Now it all makes sense, no wonder he was so weary of someone who’s out for him, he is terrified about his wife finding out about his previous affairs, so he really must’ve been hand-held here, I thought he just didn’t want to hurt Yang Han Lu, but he’s just scared about losing what he has now, ah!

I'm even more angry, this motherfucker man!

I thanked Ah Li and had already made up my mind to tell the pretty woman about Yang Han Lu, he blew his last chance already.

The next day, I didn’t go to the bath house, but to help Li Xin with work, and to see Yang Han Lu, she still was the same, nothing to say, and became more and more silent, and that night when her father came, she must’ve known who that was, but didn’t cry because she knew he just left her.

I was reminded of a saying, nothing is more wretched than apathy.

But… I couldn’t do anything to help her right now.

The next day I went to the bathhouse again, this time the security guard already recognized me and told me to get lost.

I smiled and said: "Sir Yang owes me money, tell him to come out!"

The two security guards were furious: "Go away, you madman!" I said if you won't call him I'll sit and squat around here, a security guard angrily replied: "Do whatever you want, Sir Yang hasn't even come yet, you're gonna be here for a while."

I raised an eyebrow, since Sir Yang had not come, then I will wait here and stop his car later.

I waited not far away, and after waiting for about half an hour, then finally Sir Yang's car appeared.

I immediately rushed over, but the two security guards who had been watching me came to stop me. I was going to shout that I know you're afraid of your wife, but Sir Yang was the first to speak: "Let him come."

My words were stuck in my throat, but then I was amazed, had this guy changed his nature?

I went over, and he let me get in the car, and instructed the security guards not to say anything about my arrival.

Then he drove away again, I sat in the car to observe him, he looked extremely tired, seemingly did not sleep well. I coughed and said what do you want?

He gripped the steering wheel and remained silent, and finally spoke in a low voice: "You tell Han Lu, I will accept her as my daughter, but right now I'm not ready, so I'll need to talk to her mother first."

I was surprised and delighted, damn really, that easily? I said are you serious? He said yes.

I said well, I respect you for once, I was going to tell your wife. He was shocked, his face was a little white, I sighed: “I guess accepting her as your daughter was really hard, choosing wealth or your daughter ah.”

He was silent again, then we both stopped talking, I got off halfway, and then cheerfully hitchhiked back, no matter what, Mr. Yang changing his mind would be good news, it was better than just cutting off the relationship.

I ran to see Yang Han Lu, who was in a daze while leaning on the balcony. I went in to tell her the good news: "Yang Han Lu, your father has decided to accept you, but you just need to wait for a bit."

She shuddered and looked back at me incredulously. I said it was true, but your father's career is in his wife's hands, so it was hard for him to choose.

I thought she was indifferent, but after a few moments she began to cry, but very softly.

She still wanted a loving father after all. I watched her in silence, letting her cry, and she never said a word.

I had to go to school tomorrow and I felt powerless, so the only thing I could do was to reassure that her father cared about her. She nodded slightly and her eyes were red.

I went back to school, and I kept thinking about this, I felt like I was doing something nice, but if Yang Han Lu hadn’t helped me with my money issues, I might not have helped her before.

Today went slowly, all I did was write in class, occasionally talk to Lin Yin Yin, but overall, I had nothing to do.

I went to look for Yang Han Lu after school in the afternoon, but she wasn't there. I went to grab the landlord to ask about her, the landlord was surprisingly cheerful: "Don't you worry, she just left for a bit, and she was dressing up before she left, and was very nervous, I think it's something about her father."

I was happy, Mr. Yang said he was going to meet with Han Lu's mother first, maybe there were all going at the same time?

I really want to go with them, but since I'm an outsider it'd be bad for me to go, and I don't even know where they are.

I waited, and the landlord also waited anxiously, the landlord also seems to be very worried about Yang Han Lu.

About eight o'clock in the evening, Yang Han Lu finally came back, with a smile on her face, eyes filled with happiness, like she was a different person.

The landlord and I don’t know what happened, but looking at her face we both breathe a sigh of relief, I asked if she saw her dad.

Yang Han Lu nodded shyly, unable to conceal her joy. This guy is so easily satisfied, she must've been looking forward to seeing her father these past ten years.

I asked him what he said. Yang Han Lu's joy was a little unsettling: "He couldn't recognize me openly, but only promised to treat me well and to care for me later when his career was successful."

This was expected, Mr. Yang obviously couldn't have a falling out with his wife, after all, his wife was the one who gave him success.

I said give him some time, and it'll pay off in the end. She smiled and nodded, and could not help but be sad: "He and my mother did not make up, my mother also beat him."

This was to be expected, especially with her mother’s temper, Mr. Yang only cared about reuniting now, and not before.

The landlord then shouted: "Well, well, it will slowly get better, tonight I'll cook for you, you guys, come to my house for dinner."

This short fat man really wasn't too bad, I agreed, and Yang Han Lu also nodded, and so the three of us planned to go and eat, but then the landlord soured the atmosphere by mentioning her underwear: “By the way, when are you going to give out the goods today?”

I kicked him, the landlord could not help but be aggrieved, and Yang Han Lu surprisingly looked embarrassed: "Dad did not allow me to sell them anymore......"

The landlord wailed, I was not surprised, what kind of dad would let his daughter sell her underwear. I said to not pay attention to it, it was fine.

The landlord howled miserably: “I’m almost out of money, they’re going to call off my wife again, and my reputation will be gone.”

I gloated, Yang Han Lu covered her mouth and snickered, reached out and pulled out a check from her pocket: "My father gave me 50,000 yen as loose change, you take it." (TN: About 380 USD.)

The landlord's eyes widened and he reached out and snatched it away: "How kind you are, hahaha."

What?! I'm not happy, that's such a waste! Yang Han Lu, however, was unfazed, then unnaturally pulled the corner of my coat for a moment.

I was stunned, but she went upstairs quickly. She wanted me to go up too, so I hurried to follow, the landlord was smiling and went to follow us, I kicked him away: "Get out of here!"

I went up by myself, the door was left open, I went in and saw that Yang Han Lu was waiting for me, and she seemed a little shy.

This girl changed really fast, and even after meeting her father, her personality has changed, I did not expect her to be like this before.

I was amused: "Why are you acting like this, ahaha?" Her face was a little flushed and she looked at me very tenderly: "Li Chen, I didn't think you would change my life, thank you."

I waved off her gratitude, and she pondered for a moment, and after smiling she said: “If it wasn’t for you helping me I really don’t know how I would have lived, so anything you ask, I’ll do it, just tell me.”

My heart jumped and my  face scrunched up: "I recognized that tone of voice… you've reverted back to wanting to fool around...?"

She laughed out loud: "Now when did I ever do that? I'm not going to be a terrible sister, of course, I will not do anything to you, but actually... love sounds very wonderful, you actually aren't officially dating anyone, aren't I allowed to court you?"

I rolled my eyes and said that's enough, she laughed more and more: "Okay, I'm just kidding, but I do think favorably of you... and if only you were a little taller."

Damn you!
