"Uh..."
Zhao Tianhai had initially intended to say more, but upon hearing Jiang Aiying's words, he immediately fell silent, not adding anything further.
At this moment, Chen Yue also spoke up.
"Mom, since you've intervened, Liu Kai Xuan will definitely comply!"
"Why don't you talk to Kai Xuan again and ask him to give Da Jun and me another raise!"
"It's already very difficult for the two of us to support the enormous family expenses with our current salaries!"
"You must help us with this matter this time!"
Jiang Aiying glared at Chen Yue and retorted, "Chen Yue, are you ever going to stop?"
"Your and Da Jun's salary standards have long since severely exceeded the limit!"
"Go and look at those ordinary nannies; their monthly wages are only over a hundred yuan!"
"And look at yourself; your monthly salary is now over three thousand!"
"Your salary alone is equivalent to twenty ordinary nannies, and you're still not satisfied?"
Chen Yue, mustering her courage, replied, "Isn't it that different positions have different salary treatments!"
"Alright, alright, stop spouting this useless nonsense to me!"
Jiang Aiying continued, "People say contentment brings happiness!"
"You and Da Jun should take some time to seriously think about how to become more accomplished yourselves!"
"Don't be thinking about earning without working all day; it's truly of no benefit to you!"
Although Chen Yue was unwilling, she could only grit her teeth and nod.
Frankly speaking, her and Zhao Dajun's salary and benefits were indeed not low.
However, as the saying goes, a greedy heart is like a snake trying to swallow an elephant.
People's desires are never truly satisfied, no matter the time.
As for Chen Yue, she wished she could have half of Liu Kai Xuan's entire fortune divided among herself to be truly content.
These few thousand, tens of thousands of income, in Chen Yue's eyes, were merely a drizzle to Liu Kai Xuan, who was worth hundreds of millions.
However, in this matter, Jiang Aiying was a relatively clear-headed elder.
Since her mind was clear, she certainly wouldn't let Chen Yue act recklessly in her name.
Courtyard.
Liu Haizhong approached Yan Bugui once again to discuss the matter of their property being scammed.
"Old Yan, how has your recent effort been going?"
"Our family's life is truly unbearable now!"
Yan Bugui also wore a troubled expression: "Old Liu, this matter is truly unsolvable now!"
"I've looked for many people, and basically, they're all helpless!"
"As for Liu Kai Xuan, I've privately approached him several times, but that brat simply refuses to help us!"
In this regard, Liu Haizhong appeared somewhat more sensible!
"It makes sense, considering how we treated their family back then!"
"Now that they've become successful, it's good enough that they haven't come back for revenge; asking for help is probably out of the question!"
Yan Bugui sighed helplessly: "I naturally understand the reasoning you're talking about!"
"But the crucial point now is: besides Liu Kai Xuan, who else can help us solve this huge problem?"
"For people like us, as long as we can recover our losses, face doesn't matter!"
"Even if I have to kneel to Liu Kai Xuan, it's fine!"
Liu Haizhong suggested: "Then how about we go over again tomorrow morning!"
"Even if we have to throw away our old faces, we must make Liu Kai Xuan help us this time!"
Yan Bugui also chimed in: "It seems that this is the only way to deal with this problem now!"
In fact, for Liu Kai Xuan, the swindling of the scoundrels in the courtyard had nothing to do with him.
Instead, Liu Kai Xuan felt that You Fengxia's actions were akin to eliminating harm for the people.
Dealing with that group of shameless scoundrels from the courtyard, a strategy of delay was sufficient.
It was just that Liu Kai Xuan had overlooked the clinginess of this group of beasts.
...
The next morning, when Liu Kai Xuan drove to work, he was once again blocked at the entrance by this group of people.
"Why are you guys here again?"
Seeing the disgruntled faces of Yan Bugui and Liu Haizhong, Liu Kai Xuan felt a headache coming on.
Yan Bugui said with a pained expression: "Kai Xuan!"
"Our group of old neighbors can't go on living like this!"
"Only you can help us through this difficult time. I beg you to show mercy and save us!"
After saying this, Yan Bugui's knees buckled, and he collapsed onto the ground.
Yan Bugui's maneuver caused Liu Kai Xuan's brows to furrow deeply.
Simultaneously, after Yan Bugui knelt, Liu Haizhong and several others also knelt on the ground.
Seeing this scene, Liu Kai Xuan could only get out of the car immediately and help Yan Bugui up from the ground.
Then, Liu Kai Xuan said earnestly.
"Third Uncle, it's not that I'm unwilling to help you; I've truly done my utmost for this matter!"
"It's just that my personal abilities are limited. I've been working on it for so long without any progress!"
"I feel very ashamed about this!"
"However, I do have an idea!"
"An idea?" Yan Bugui asked curiously, "Kai Xuan, please tell us quickly!"
Liu Kai Xuan said solemnly: "Your cooperation with You Fengxia!"
"Wasn't it going quite smoothly? Why was it suddenly investigated by customs!"
"And I heard you were reported!"
"Now I'm very curious, who was the person who reported you?"
"Who knows!"
Liu Haizhong said exasperatedly: "I don't know which unethical bastard did such a heartless thing!"
"What is it?"
Liu Haizhong asked curiously, "Does Mr. Liu know the identity of this person?"
"Heh heh..."
Liu Kai Xuan waved his hand and laughed: "How could I possibly know!"
"But I think you can sit down and calmly consider this matter!"
"Sort out the entire incident properly, and you should be able to find some useful clues!"
"Personally, I believe that the possibility of getting back the batch of goods that is currently impounded is almost zero!"
"But if you can find some clues, you might be able to recover some of the losses!"
"As neighbors of so many years, this is probably all I can remind you of now!"
"Beyond this, I am powerless!"
Yan Bugui and Liu Haizhong both frowned, falling into a long silence.
