Max-Level Metaphysician: A Debt Repayment Journey-Chapter 1296: Entanglement

Qiang Ying took a sip of wine, smacked his lips, and started talking on his own, without needing Yu Misheng to inquire, he just went straight on.

He once personally saw Wu Jianhan reprimand the staff at the inn. Originally, his family’s inn had several young waitress sisters, as well as three chefs.

But basically, everyone in the inn had been scolded by him at some point.

There was a waitress in her twenties who had once been scolded to tears by him.

I heard it seemed like she had broken a cup, a cup that Wu Jianhan had collected as an artifact during his work abroad, said to be quite expensive.

Wu Jianhan placed it in the display cabinet at the inn, usually not allowing anyone else to touch it; he alone would clean it.

The waitress found the cup quite pretty and took it down to have a look. Just then a guest called her, and not paying attention, she turned around and accidentally dropped it, breaking the cup.

As soon as Wu Jianhan heard the commotion, he rushed over, discovered his cup broken, and gave the waitress a stern telling off.

A lot of tourists couldn’t bear to watch, and helped to smooth things over, that’s how the matter was resolved.

Qiang Ying happened to be free at the time, and when he went out for some fresh air, he saw the waitress squatting outside crying. When he went over to ask, he found out about these things. 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚

"The girl was crying so much, she almost fainted. I couldn’t bear to watch," Qiang Ying said. "However, Wu Jianhan scolded her but didn’t make her compensate, and never mentioned the matter again. I heard from other waitresses that the cup was apparently worth four figures."

"So what do you think of Wu Jianhan as a person?" Yu Misheng asked.

Qiang Ying hesitated and said, "It’s hard to say. He seems to have a big temper and likes to scold people, but once things are over, they’re over, never keeps scores, and doesn’t haggle over compensation or anything. Yet, when he scolds people harshly, others find it hard to accept, don’t they? So, his reputation is truly hard to pin down."

Yu Misheng thought for a moment and asked, "You just said he used to work abroad?"

Qiang Ying nodded, "Yes, the business at Wu Jianhan’s family inn wasn’t good at first. Once he drank too much, squatted at the door and vomited, I saw him and worried he might get sick, so I went over to ask."

At that time, Wu Jianhan complained to him, saying he didn’t want to run an inn now, he was struggling financially, even had to use his savings to cover it, he was nearly at his limit.

Wu Jianhan had both education and ability, he used to work abroad, and after transferring back home, he also worked as a senior executive in enterprises, reportedly earning over a million a year.

But, He Ruomei was more ordinary.

After they got married, most of the time it was a long-distance relationship.

He Ruomei stayed here by herself, taking care of both the children and the elders of both families.

She was intent on having Wu Jianhan come back.

Later, even though Wu Jianhan returned to the country, his workplace was still in the big city.

Wu Jianhan wanted to move He Ruomei’s entire family to the city.

But his parents didn’t want to, the elderly were used to living in their hometown, they felt that they were getting older, wanted to return to their roots, they just wouldn’t leave.

They only wished to stay in their hometown.

Since the elders didn’t want to leave, He Ruomei naturally couldn’t move.

Both of them are only children, and both sets of parents are still alive, needing care, He Ruomei couldn’t manage it.

"A woman living in the county, needing to take care of four elders and a child, over time will surely be unable to sustain it, Wu Jianhan’s wife just wanted him to come back."

Yu Hezi was eating and vaguely asked, "Did Wu Jianhan come back then?"

"At first, he was unwilling to return, after all, there are no good jobs in the county, how could Wu Jianhan bear to leave his work? He just wanted to hire a nanny, but both sets of elders refused to let a nanny take care of them, saying that a nanny was an outsider, and didn’t feel comfortable with personal care."
