Chapter 1412 Rejection
"I know that this incident is entirely his own fault."

"but-"

Mr. Zhou smiled bitterly, "What can we do?"

"He is my son."

"Xiaoxiao, can you help him for Grandpa Zhou's sake?"

The old man's eyes were full of earnestness and pleading.

……

"Grandpa Zhou, how can you be sure that I can help him?"

The old man's persistence made Xiao Xiao a little confused.

Or is the old man really so desperate that he would beg so hard from anyone who could possibly help his son?
"You helped Old Wood's son."

According to his understanding, "the troubles Xiao Mu's child once encountered are very similar to the troubles my son is facing now."

"Xiao Mu couldn't come up with the money, so the other party asked for the Gu Mu Xuan from Lao Mu's family."

"Now my son can't afford the money, so the other party wants my son to be hospitalized."

"Very similar situation, isn't it?"

It was because of the high similarity between the two things that he had high expectations for Xiao Xiao, and he went directly to Xiao Xiao's school after failing to wait for Lao Xiao's answer.

"Since you can help Old Wood's son solve the problem, then..."

Mr. Zhou looked at Xiao Xiao seriously and said, "You should be able to help my son solve his problems."

"Isn't it?"

“Their experiences are so similar.”

Xiao Xiao's silence made the old man more anxious, and his words became incoherent.

".Xiaoxiao, help Grandpa Zhou."

"Help Grandpa Zhou's son."

"please."

"scoff~"

The little white fox half opened his eyes to glance at the old man, then lazily closed them again.

The atmosphere around was quite cold.

Xiao Xiao reached out and touched the little white fox's head.

Then he raised his eyes to meet the old man's earnest gaze, and he slowly shook his head, "Sorry."

The old man was stunned, ".Hold, sorry?"

"What do you mean?"

Of course the old man knew what those two words Xiao Xiao meant.

But he didn't believe it and didn't want to believe it.

He came to my door in person.
Why.
"Why are you willing to help Lao Mu's family, but not ours?"

There was a hint of sharpness in Mr. Zhou's voice. "Obviously you have the ability, don't you?"

"Do not."

Xiao Xiao shook his head, "Grandpa Zhou-"

"You should know almost everything about Mu Tansong."

"Then you must have seen the difference between the two things."

"Mu Tansong's situation at the time was different from Zhou Mingbao's."

"He was set up."

"And your son was set up by someone else."

"The accusations against your son are not groundless."

Mr. Zhou's face looked ugly for a moment.

He smiled unnaturally, "Xiaoxiao, let's not talk about these things for now."

"I will teach that kid a lesson."

"The most important thing now is to solve the multiple-choice questions given by the other party."

Either pay 12 million, or the "culprit" has to stay in the hospital for a few months.

He couldn't do the first option.

He didn't want the second option.

……

"Xiaoxiao."

The old man subconsciously wanted to reach out and grab the hand of the young man in front of him, and then-
"Ouch~"

The old man cried out in pain.

Mr. Zhou touched the back of his hand, his face full of surprise and doubt.

What happened just now?

His hand seemed to be hit by something?
But the other party moved too quickly and he didn't see clearly.

By the time he reacted and wanted to take a closer look, he found nothing.

...Xiao Xiao rubbed the little white fox's head with a little force.

The old man didn't see it clearly, but he saw it clearly.

"Feel sorry."

"what?"

Xiao Xiao's repeated apology left the old man a little confused.

"It was Jiu's tail that hit you just now."

"Ajiu?"

The unfamiliar name made the old man even more confused.

"This fox."

Xiao Xiao touched the little white fox's head again, "It doesn't like strangers to get too close to it."

And just now the veteran's hand was almost touching the little white fox.

"oh oh."

The old man suddenly realized and smiled indifferently, "It's okay, it's okay."

"It just hurt a little."

"Now there's nothing to do."

The old man looked at the back of his hand and there was not even a red mark left.

However, he had been so preoccupied with his son's affairs that he had not taken a close look at the little white fox. Now, when he saw it, the old man showed some amazement on his face, "Xiaoxiao, your fox is so beautiful."

"It's very expensive, isn't it?"

Xiaoxiao smiled and didn't answer.

The old man thought he agreed.

He wanted to get closer to take a closer look at the little white fox, but he saw the little white fox's eyelids slightly raised, and a little bit of rosy red reflected a blurry but sharp light. The old man's eyes hurt a little, and when he came to his senses, he had already distanced himself from the little white fox.

He was a little confused, but inexplicably frightened.

Old Zhou reached out his hand and touched his chest, feeling the accelerated heartbeat in his chest. His expression became a little stiff. "Xiaoxiao..." The old man pulled the corner of his mouth with some effort, "You fox... you are really vicious."

"It's quite shy."

Xiao Xiao smiled apologetically, "Sorry, did I scare you, Grandpa Zhou?"

"it's okay no problem."

Mr. Zhou waved his hands, and his expression slowly returned to normal.

But he never tried to get close to the little white fox again.

Now is not the time to look at foxes.

"Xiaoxiao."

The old man clasped his hands together, staring at the young man in front of him, "There's no time."

"The one-week deadline given by the other party will expire tomorrow."

That's why he rushed here today and stayed downstairs of the boys' dormitory.

"Grandpa Zhou really has no other choice."

In the past few days, he has tried every possible way, including every person he could find and every possible connection he could use.

But it's no use.

This bastard.

He couldn't help but curse in his heart.

He was too embarrassed to tell anyone the reason why the boy got into trouble.

If you are vague, people will think, you are here to ask for help, why are you being so secretive? You have no sincerity at all.

If he told the truth, people would think that the boy deserved it and would not be willing to help.

Mr. Zhou has been really worried and stressed out during this period, and several of his hairs have turned white.

……

"I finally got to know someone who can talk to me through connections."

Mr. Zhou's face was full of bitterness. "I was really happy at that time."

"I thought this matter was finally resolved."

"did not expect……"

The old man sighed deeply.

"Do you know what the other party bought that carved wooden screen for?"

"…For someone else?"

Xiao Xiao seemed to be thinking about something.

If asking someone to say something nice is useless, it’s either because the person who asked the question is not powerful enough, or... the buyer is even more angry about this matter than others think.

Compared to buying a fake product, it is naturally worse that you not only bought a fake product yourself, but also gave it to someone else without realizing it, and then someone else discovered that it was a fake...

This situation is even more infuriating.
