Chapter 40: You guys are trying to stage an accident, aren't you?
"You're lying."
The girl crossed her arms over her chest, pouted slightly, and turned her head away.
Then, her gaze passed over the parking space and fell upon a handsome young man in a white shirt standing at the factory gate.
Although we were quite far apart and couldn't see their faces clearly, we were still quite far away.
But you can still see the boy's profile from the side.
He had short hair and a tall, upright figure, and was looking down as he took a cigarette out of his pocket.
She stopped in her tracks immediately.
Then, he grabbed the old man's sleeve and shook it vigorously: "Grandpa...look, look!"
She pointed to the factory gate and shouted, "There's a handsome guy over there, super handsome!"
The old man, unable to bear the shaking any longer, squinted and looked towards the door.
As a result, after looking at it for two seconds, his eyes suddenly widened.
"It's...it's that young man!"
The girl blinked twice and paused for a few seconds.
The next moment, she let go of the old man's sleeve, stuffed the insulated bag into his arms, and shot out like a cannonball.
The white over-the-knee socks were stretched very tightly over the little leather shoes, and the skirt swung back and forth in the air several times.
Especially her twin ponytails, which flew almost into two straight lines behind her head.
She ran quickly to Lin Bei and slammed on the brakes, crouching down.
Then, he hugged Lin Bei's calves with both hands, looking excited:
"Grandpa...I caught him!"
Ok? !
What's going on?
Lin Bei was completely stunned.
The cigarette in his hand had only been half-smoked from the pack, not yet put in his mouth.
Lin Bei looked down at the girl with pigtails at his feet, who was looking up at him.
Her knees, clad in white stockings, pressed against the concrete floor, while her two delicate white hands clung tightly to his calves.
Lin Bei's first thought was that he might have been the victim of a staged accident.
However, this was the first time he had ever seen someone stage an accident so brazenly.
"What's going on? Are you trying to scam me?"
At this moment, Boss Wu came downstairs.
He had just finished a phone call with his business partner and was getting ready to drive.
As soon as he went downstairs, he saw his daughter, Wu Xiaoxun, squatting on the ground, tightly hugging Lin Bei's legs.
With a stern face, Boss Wu shouted at the two people not far away, "Xiao Xun, what are you doing!"
"This is one of my important clients. What kind of behavior is this, clinging to him like that!"
At the same time, the old man, leaning on his cane, slowly walked up to them.
He looked at Lin Bei in front of him, then at his granddaughter, and a kind smile and a hint of apology immediately appeared on his face. He bowed slightly.
"Young man, I was just looking for you. I didn't expect to run into you here."
Lin Bei glanced at the old man and recognized him instantly.
Isn't this the old man who was lying on the ground a few days ago and almost died?
What is he doing...?
Lin Bei realized what was happening, took a half step back, looked down at Wu Xiaoxun who was still hugging his leg, and then looked at the old man in front of him with a complicated expression.
"Is it you?"
"You're not really trying to scam me, are you?!"
"It's been several days already, it's going too far to try and extort money from people like this."
Mr. Wu was completely bewildered by the scene.
What's going on?
Touch porcelain?
What are you trying to scam?
He looked at his father, then at his daughter, and finally at Lin Bei.
"Dad, what's going on? Do you two know each other?"
Wu Xiuwen quickly stepped forward, leaning on his cane, and waved his hand to explain, "Young man, you've misunderstood."
"I'm not here to extort you; I just want to thank you."
"That day, my old ailment flared up, and I collapsed on the ground with no one to help me. You were passing by and bought me water and gave me my medicine."
"Then the ambulance arrived, and they said that if it had been a few minutes later, I would have lost my life."
Boss Wu opened and closed his mouth, turned his head to look at Lin Bei, and his expression changed from confusion to seriousness.
His father did tell him a couple of days ago that he had been saved by someone.
But I can't say what his name is, I only know that he's a young man surnamed Lin.
He pointed at Lin Bei: "Dad, is he the one you said saved you?"
"It's him." Wu Xiuwen nodded with a smile.
Wu Xiaoxun was still squatting on the ground, hugging Lin Bei's legs.
Hearing this, she looked up at Lin Bei, grinned, and hugged him even tighter.
Grandpa wasn't lying after all; the young man who saved her was indeed handsome, exactly the prince charming she had in mind.
A porter passing by, carrying a box, walked around her, then looked back and shook his head helplessly at the young lady squatting on the ground hugging her leg.
Boss Wu was silent for a moment, then reached out and grasped Lin Bei's hand.
This time I had to use much more force than I did in the office.
A pair of rough, middle-aged man's hands, calloused from years of working with fabrics, tightly wrapped around Lin Bei's hands.
"Mr. Lin, we used to be business partners, now we're each other's benefactors."
"Don't leave this afternoon. It's my treat today, you absolutely have to stay for a meal."
Lin Bei glanced down at Wu Xiaoxun, who was still on his lap.
He glanced again at Boss Wu, who was holding his hand tightly.
Then look at Wu Xiuwen, who is leaning on a cane and has a kind smile on his face.
Finally, he put the cigarette back into the cigarette case.
"Okay, I can eat."
"But could you please ask this lady to loosen my leg first?"
However, Wu Xiaoxun not only refused to loosen her grip, but also looked up defiantly and said, "I won't loosen it, or you'll run away!"
"Grandpa didn't get your phone number last time, and we searched for it for several days."
Lin Bei was both amused and exasperated.
"Okay, I won't run away."
"I'm hungry now, shall we go eat?"
Wu Xiaoxun hesitated before letting go, standing up from the ground, and patting the dust off her knees.
Two gray stains were found on the knee area of the white over-the-knee socks.
She glanced down but didn't pay any attention, continuing to stand next to Lin Bei as if afraid he would run away.
Mr. Wu shook his head helplessly; he was utterly powerless to help this woman.
That noon.
Mr. Wu booked a deluxe private room at a private restaurant near the factory.
The table was laden with dishes, including braised pork, braised pork hock, steamed fish, and a pot of old duck soup in the middle.
Mr. Wu picked up his wine glass and stood up, holding the glass with both hands.
"Mr. Lin, I'm grateful for your life-saving kindness; there's no need for empty words."
"If anything were to happen to my father, I would never be able to live with myself for the rest of my life."
"This glass is for you."
After saying that, before Lin Bei could even raise his glass, he tilted his head back and downed it in one gulp.
Lin Bei picked up the cup and symbolically took a sip.
Boss Wu put down his wine glass, picked up the teapot next to him, poured Lin Bei a cup of tea himself, and then sat down again.
His expression was very serious, like someone discussing business.
"I'll give you another 20% off the wholesale price we discussed before."
"Making money or not doesn't matter. Let's just be friends. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have the father I have today."
"No matter when you come to pick up goods or how much you buy, the price will always be the same."
