Chapter 12 - 0012: Am I worthy of being a good person?_1



The children of poor families face severe polarization: either they are very self-reliant and take the Righteous Path to make a living, or they seek to rise above their poverty through dishonest and evil means. Wang Shu, obviously, had chosen the wrong path.

“Tong’er has been sensible since he was a child. Knowing the family was too poor to afford his sister’s education, he voluntarily dropped out of school for her sake. Who would have thought that when it came down to it, his sister would turn out like this? If I had known, I would have let Tong’er go to university instead.”

“Ye Xiong, from the moment I first saw you, I knew you were not a common man,” Aunt Wang said, her gaze intently fixed on Ye Xiong.

“Aunt Wang, I am just an ordinary person.”

“Don’t think you can fool me just because I’m a poor, uneducated woman. I’ve been observing people for more than sixty years with these eyes of mine, and I can still discern a thing or two. I don’t know why you chose to be a construction worker, but I do know that you must be a good person.”

A good person, do I qualify?

“There’s no saving Wang Shu now. What worries me most is Tong’er, so I hope you can look after him within your capabilities.”

“Don’t worry, Aunt Wang, I won’t let anything happen to him,” Ye Xiong said with a smile.

When he left the village, it was already past seven o’clock, and it was almost dark.

“Brother Xiong, what did my mom talk to you about just now? She likes to nag, always talking too much and being annoying. Don’t take it to heart,” Wang Tong said.

“Your mom asked me if you have a girlfriend.”

“No way, what did you say?”

“I said you are currently seeing someone.”

“Are you trying to doom me? Next time she tells me to bring someone home, where am I going to find one?”

“Nowadays, you can rent anything. Just rent one to bring home when the time comes.”

“Dammit, isn’t that going to cost money?”

“The wallet is on me.”

Next, Ye Xiong went and bought two new Apple phones, one for himself and the other as a gift for Wang Tong.

“Brother Xiong, I can’t accept such an expensive gift,” Wang Tong exclaimed, repeatedly trying to refuse the phone Ye Xiong had offered him.

“Take it or I smash it,” Ye Xiong said as he lifted the phone.

Seeing his stance, Wang Tong was startled; Ye Xiong seemed a bit crazy, like he might actually go through with it. So, Wang Tong quickly took the phone back into his hands.

Ye Xiong then treated Wang Tong to a fun day out, spending money like water.

In just half a day, he had spent tens of thousands, all on impractical stuff.

“Brother Xiong, where did you get so much money? You didn’t do anything illegal, did you?” Wang Tong asked timidly.

“The money belongs to my wife.”

“Who is your wife? Why have I never heard about her?” Wang Tong asked curiously.

“Yang Xinyi,” Ye Xiong answered truthfully.

Pfft!

Wang Tong nearly burst out laughing.

“Damn, your wife is Yang Xinyi, and mine is Zhang Ziyi!”

Sigh, when you tell the truth, why does no one believe it, Ye Xiong sighed helplessly.

The next day at work, Ye Xiong was moving bricks with Wang Tong at the construction site when a woman dressed in office attire approached, calling from afar, “Wang Tong, come here for a moment.”

It was Wang Tong’s sister, Wang Shu.

Wang Shu’s face was dark, and she had an air of superiority. She gave Ye Xiong a disdainful look and said, “Wang Tong, you can’t keep associating with lowlifes. It will only make you more worthless.”

“Brother Xiong is not a lowlife!” Wang Tong said anxiously.

“Just look at him—glib and slick. It’s obvious he’s no good,” Wang Shu scoffed at Ye Xiong, her eyes filled with contempt. “A grown man, able-bodied and sound of limb, and he chooses to be a construction worker. He has no ambition.”

Ye Xiong had been holding back, but at this point, he couldn’t contain his anger any longer.

“What’s wrong with being a construction worker? We work for our food, how have we offended you? If it weren’t for your brother working at the construction site, you wouldn’t have had the money to go to university, and you’d probably be prostituting yourself in some corner by now,” Ye Xiong said furiously.

“How dare you curse at me!” Wang Shu pointed at Ye Xiong, her body shaking with rage.

“If you weren’t Wang Tong’s sister, it wouldn’t just be a verbal reprimand—I would have slapped you already,” Ye Xiong snorted.

“You’ll see.”

After venting her anger, Wang Shu stormed off.

After she had left, Wang Tong sighed and his face fell.

“I’m sorry, Brother Xiong, my sister wasn’t like this before. I don’t know when she changed like this,” Wang Tong said.

“It’s okay, she’ll regret it sooner or later,” Ye Xiong consoled.

Wang Shu returned to the office building and went into the vice president’s office, sitting on the sofa and stewing in her anger.

Yang Bin came in, saw her sitting on the sofa, then closed the door, and went over to embrace her.

“Stop it, this is an office,” Wang Shu pushed him away.

“Don’t worry, this is my office. Without my order, nobody dares to come in. Come on, give me a kiss.” After saying this, Yang Bin’s face moved forward to Wang Shu.

Wang Shu pushed him several times without success and reluctantly let him have his way.

In less than three minutes, Yang Bin was finished, which made Wang Shu even more infuriated.

She kicked Yang Bin’s fat body away and said angrily, “Useless trash.”

“I’m sorry, I was too excited.”

After dressing, Wang Shu said with indignation, “I need you to do something for me.”

“What do you need?”

“Call HR and tell them to fire my brother and that guy called Ye Xiong,” Wang Shu demanded.

“Isn’t that a bit difficult?” Yang Bin’s face showed hesitation. “Xia Qiu is in charge of the construction site. As someone who deals with sales, it’s not really suitable for me to interfere with their matters.”

“Are you going to do it or not? If you don’t, don’t blame me for being nasty.” Wang Shu gave him a scornful glance and threatened, “If I send this picture to your wife or your middle school-aged daughter, let’s see what you do.”

Wang Shu waved her cellphone, which displayed a photo of the two of them in an intimate pose.

Yang Bin immediately became nervous and said sheepishly, “Alright, I’ll make the call.”

Yang Bin pulled out his phone and directly called Xia Qiu, briefly explaining the situation.

“Those two movers actually dared to offend President Yang, what fools. Tell me their names,” Xia Qiu asked commandingly on the other end.

“Ye Xiong, Wang Tong,” Yang Bin gave the two names.

“Within half an hour, they are to leave the construction site,” Xia Qiu ordered, and then hung up the call.
