Chapter 194 Li Ruoling's compensation for breaking off the engagement with Ye Fei
Looking at Li Ruoling lying on the table and crying loudly, the Seventh Senior Sister and the Fifth Senior Brother were both at a loss.
Just then, Butler Wang arrived.
Early in the morning, he heard someone crying, so he ran over and saw that it was his young lady crying. He immediately became anxious: "Young lady, what's wrong with you?"
It was only at this moment that he realized that they had fought all night last night and the landlord had not left.
The reason why he knew they were playing Landlord was because last night Li Ruoling asked her Seventh Senior Sister to go to him to borrow spirit stones. Seventh Senior Sister mentioned to him that Ling'er lost the Landlord game and asked him for 10,000 spirit stones.
"Uncle Wang..." Seventh Senior Sister bowed slightly to Uncle Wang.
"Uncle Wang!" The fifth senior brother clasped his fists and saluted Butler Wang.
Butler Wang holds a high status in the Li family. All the Li family members of his generation respect him very much, not to mention the two younger ones.
"What's going on?" Butler Wang looked at Senior Sister Seven and Senior Brother Five, his voice a little cold.
“Uncle Wang…” Senior Sister Seven said weakly, “Ling’er, she lost the Landlord game. I advised her many times last night to stop playing, but she refused to listen. Now, she has lost everything. She regrets it and feels heartbroken. She started crying…”
"If you lose, you lose! I didn't think it was a big deal!" Butler Wang said calmly, "Okay, stop crying. Uncle Wang will make up for whatever you lost. Stop crying. It's just a little money. It's not a big deal. Whatever you lost is your uncle's."
Steward Wang is a man who can be the steward of the Li family, one of the largest families in Tianluo City. Naturally, he is smart and has a unique vision. He knows that the future of the Li family depends entirely on this young lady in front of him. He will certainly not miss such a good opportunity to flatter her while she has not yet fully risen.
In fact, when he said this, he had already made a quick and simple calculation in his mind. Li Ruoling borrowed 10,000 yuan from him last night. This girl has been very poor over the years because she helped the prodigal son of the Ye family pay off his debts. She must not have much money on her. Even if she lost all the money of her seventh senior sister and fifth senior brother, it would not exceed 20,000 yuan at most.
As the Li family's chief steward, he had some savings over the years and could still afford tens of thousands of spirit stones.
In order to please the future pillar of the Li family, he risked everything.
As long as it doesn't exceed 20,000 or 30,000, he plans to help Li Ruoling make up the money.
Others try to make their beloved smile, and today he also plans to give it a try to make his niece smile.
"Ah?" Li Ruoling suddenly raised her head: "Uncle Wang, are you telling the truth?"
"You little girl..." Uncle Wang scolded with a smile: "From your childhood to all these years, when has Uncle Wang ever played a joke on you?"
"Hehe..." Li Ruoling suddenly laughed. She wiped away her tears, stood up and hooked Butler Wang's arm: "Uncle Wang, then, can you please not tell my father about this!"
"Why should I tell your father?" Butler Wang curled his lips and said, "If your father knew about this, he would definitely scold you! After all, you were raised by your uncle Wang. Uncle Wang has no children. In my heart, you are like my own daughter. How can I watch your father scold you? Uncle Wang will feel sad when he sees you like that!"
Don't worry, I, Uncle Wang, will pay for the money you lost out of my own pocket, including the ten thousand you took last night. I won't use the Li family's account, and your father won't find out."
"That's great!" Li Ruoling laughed happily, "Hehe, Uncle Wang, you are so nice to me."
Li Ruoling did not mean what she said. Butler Wang had been very good to her since she was a child. Even though her father had been strict in the past and did not allow Butler Wang to give her money, Butler Wang still secretly gave Li Ruoling hundreds or even thousands of dollars many times.
"Alright, alright, tell me, how much did you lose last night?" Steward Wang raised his left hand in a high-profile manner, and turned a jade ring on his left hand with his right hand. This was his storage ring. He had worked diligently and tirelessly for the Li family for most of his life, and saved tens of thousands of spirit stones, all in it.
Don't underestimate his family background. People like him who always carry tens of thousands of spirit stones with him are rare even in the entire Tianluo City. He still has reason to be proud.
"Uh..." Li Ruoling was suddenly stunned and felt embarrassed to speak.
"Why don't you tell me how much you lost?" Butler Wang curled his lips and said, "Don't be afraid, just tell me how much you lost. Uncle Wang will support you even if the sky falls. It's just a loss of money. Why are you crying? What a shame.
Don't do this again in the future. Don't forget that your identity is different now. You are now a student of the strongest Tianxuan Academy in the Wuyuan Star Region. How can you cry like before? People will laugh at you. If it gets out, you will bring shame to your Tianxuan Academy.
Tell me how much you lost. Tell me now. Don't waste my time. I still have many things to deal with."
"Uncle Wang, I, I..." Li Ruoling hesitated for a long time and still didn't have the courage to speak.
"Ah..." Steward Wang sighed, "Girl, why are you dithering? Don't worry, your uncle Wang has some savings over the years. No matter how much you lost, I can help you make up for it."
"Oh?" Li Ruoling looked at Butler Wang with some disbelief.
It seems that he has embezzled a lot of money from our Li family over the years, right?
That's right. He is in charge of so many businesses of the Li family. If he just cuts a little here and there, he can make a lot in a year.
Thinking of this, Li Ruoling's guilt instantly eased, so she immediately smiled at Butler Wang and said weakly, "Hehe, Uncle Wang, I didn't lose much..."
"It doesn't matter how much you lost!" Butler Wang said impatiently.
“Hehe…” Li Ruoling smiled awkwardly: “All together it’s only about 150,000.”
"What!" Butler Wang exclaimed, staggered a few steps, and almost fell to the ground.
"Uncle Wang, what's wrong with you?" Li Ruoling grabbed his arm and said, "Uncle Wang, are you okay?"
"It's okay, it's okay..." Butler Wang pushed Li Ruoling's hand away and suddenly cried out: "It's bad, Miss, I don't know what unclean food I ate last night, and I have an upset stomach. Wait for me, I have to go to the bathroom first..."
When Butler Wang finished saying this, he had already run out of the private room. He had not yet reached the Dan Yuan realm and could not perform teleportation, otherwise he would have definitely used teleportation to escape.
In the blink of an eye, Butler Wang disappeared from their sight.
This made Li Ruoling, Fifth Senior Brother, and Seventh Senior Sister all dumbfounded.
"Haha..." Senior Sister Seven said to Li Ruoling with some disdain, "Xiaojiu, you are so bold to ask for 150,000. You really think Uncle Wang is a sucker."
"He said so himself. He has saved a lot over the years. I just wanted to test how much he has saved." Li Ruoling curled her lips and said, "Fortunately, it seems that he doesn't have much money. Otherwise, I would think that he has embezzled a lot of money from our Li family over the years!"
"That shouldn't be the case." Seventh Senior Sister shook her head. "Uncle Wang was raised by your grandfather. He followed your grandfather for so many years, and now he follows your father as the chief steward of the Li family. Although his last name is not Li, he is also considered a member of your Li family."
When the Seventh Senior Sister said this, she suddenly glared at Li Ruoling and said, "I say, you are really something. You were already very lucky to have Uncle Wang help you make up the 20,000 or 30,000 Spiritual Stones we lost last night, but you asked for too much. Now you scared Uncle Wang away and you can't get a single Spiritual Stone, right?"
"We are all penniless now!" The fifth brother pouted and said, "How are we going to live in the future?"
Li Ruoling looked at his fifth senior brother with a guilty look on his face: "Fifth brother, don't worry, I will definitely give you the more than one thousand."
"How are you going to give it to me?" The Seventh Senior Sister curled her lips and said, "There's still my three thousand plus. I had eighteen thousand before. I don't care. I didn't participate in your gambling. These two hundred thousand were all saved by me with great difficulty. You must pay me back in the future."
"Yes, I still owe you twenty-one thousand..." Li Ruoling said this, her eyes red again: "Originally, I brought more than ten thousand spirit stones back this time, and I planned to pay you ten thousand first, but that bastard Ye Fei won and ran away, woo..."
Li Ruoling suddenly lay down on the table and started crying again.
Seeing Li Ruoling crying again, Seventh Senior Sister softened her heart instantly: "Okay, okay, don't cry, I don't want you to pay it back..."
Li Ruoling instantly raised her head and looked at Seventh Senior Sister, tears in her eyes: "Seventh Senior Sister, is this true?"
"No, no..." Seventh Senior Sister suddenly regretted: "It's not okay if you don't pay me back a cent. You can pay me back half. Half is fine, right?"
"Ooooo..." Li Ruoling fell down again: "Half of that is more than ten thousand, how can I afford it, oooo..."
"I don't want you to pay it back!" Seventh Senior Sister gritted her teeth.
Li Ruoling raised her head and glanced at Seventh Senior Sister, then continued to cry: "Wuwu..."
"No one wants you to pay it back and you're still crying!" said the Seventh Senior Sister with a look of disdain.
"Wuwu..." Li Ruoling lay on the table and cried, "We don't have a penny now, how are we going to live in the future, wuwu... Uncle Wang doesn't care about me anymore, wuwu... Uncle Wang doesn't give me any money, he ignores me, wuwu, the more than 10,000 spirit stones my master gave me were for me to practice well at home, saying that we will have to take the entrance examination as soon as we go to the main campus of Tianxuan College. He repeatedly told me to practice well and never embarrass him, wuwu, what should I do,..."
"Alright, alright, stop crying!" At this moment, Butler Wang came back: "Stop being a spoiled brat and stop acting..."
Steward Wang strode over to Li Ruoling, took out a storage ring and placed it on the table: "There are 30,000 spirit stones in it, take it! This is Uncle Wang's coffin money. Uncle Wang has saved up his entire life, and this is all he has. I'll give it all to you."
"Swish!" Li Ruoling raised her head instantly, wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and quickly picked up the storage ring on the table: "Hehe, thank you Uncle Wang!" Li Ruoling bowed deeply to Butler Wang.
"You know I'm not far away, who are you crying for? Don't I know you?" Butler Wang curled his lips in disdain: "My dear Miss, your status is different now. Don't use this trick so easily in the future. It will affect your image if others see it."
In the past, Li Tianba did not allow Wang Guanjia to give Li Ruoling money. Sometimes Li Ruoling was forced by Ye Fei's debts and had no choice but to go to her mother and Wang Guanjia to talk. Every time she used the same trick, she would cry, make a scene, and threaten to hang herself. Wang Guanjia had already known all her old tricks.
"Hehe..." Li Ruoling smiled happily: "Uncle Wang, if there's nothing else, I'll go back first."
After saying that, Li Ruoling turned around and left.
"Goodbye Uncle Wang!"
"Uncle Wang, let's go."
The seventh senior sister and the fifth senior brother greeted Butler Wang.
The three of them left together.
Looking at the backs of Li Ruoling, Seventh Senior Sister, and Fifth Senior Brother going downstairs, Steward Wang shook his head slowly: "Ah, it's such a pity that she didn't marry the boy from the Ye family. They are really a perfect match, but they are both so disappointing..."
Just as Butler Wang was standing outside the attic on the second floor muttering to himself, Li Ruoling, Seventh Senior Sister, and Fifth Senior Brother walked out of Yihong Courtyard.
He heard Seventh Senior Sister Li Ruoling ask, "Ling'er, where are you going now?"
Li Ruoling picked up the ring in her hand and took a look at it. Suddenly, a fierce murderous look flashed across her face. She gritted her teeth and said, "Go find Ye Fei to get revenge!"
Seventh Senior Sister: “…”
Fifth senior brother: "..."
Butler Wang: "..."
Flip your grandfather's leg...
