500,000 Yuan Compensation

However, this didn’t sound reassuring to Kang Zhaoming. When it happened, he already transferred to another school, but he heard about what happened to Fen. Fen was diagnosed with mental illness because of him. How could she not hate him?

“Fen, I really came to apologize to you today. I want to compensate you as much as I can that’s within my ability!” Kang Zhaoming said, “I just went past the shantytown and I think they are holding some kind of meeting outside? Isn’t your family moving soon? I suppose you need money to buy a new house. Can you let me in before I talk about it?”

“What do you mean? You are giving me money?” Fen thought that it was incredible. She knew that Kang Zhaoming was an ungrateful person and she didn’t believe that Kang Zhaoming was kind enough to give her money.

“Yes, I harmed you before and it’s my fault. Your leg is injured and you need money to see doctors. I want to give you an amount of money to redeem for my past!” Kang Zhaoming nodded.

“Really?” Fen still found it hard to believe. Kang Zhaoming’s actions and words were too strange and he acted completely different compared to before.

“Of course it’s true!” Kang Zhaoming nodded, “Fen, don’t question my sincerity. Well, it’s inappropriate for us to stand here and talk. You don’t want to let others hear what happened between us, do you? You have your own life now and we should keep the ugly past inside, shouldn’t we?”

“Say it here if you have anything to say, all the neighbors went to the meeting. There is no one else here other than me,” Fen still didn’t want to let Kang Zhaoming in.

“If that’s the case… That’s fine!” Kang Zhaoming pondered. Since everyone else left, it was the same for him to talk about it here, “Fen, we are adults now and there’s no point arguing who was wrong in the past. I’ll compensate you 500,000 yuan, what do you think?”

“500,000 yuan?” Fen jumped. It was shocking enough that Kang Zhaoming suggested to compensate her. Now she began to question his intention after offering such a large amount of money.

“Yes. But you need to sign an agreement with me after you take the money. I hope that you keep this a secret from others, including people around you…” Kang Zhaoming said, “After all, your boyfriend is my cousin and it’s a bad influence to my family if you spill it to others…”

“That’s all?” Fen questioned. Kang Zhaoming’s excuse made sense but who didn’t know about it in House Kang? Last time at the party, didn’t he expose this himself?

“Yes. You can have a look at the agreement first if you don’t believe me. If you can follow these conditions then 500,000 yuan is yours!” Kang Zhaoming spoke as he took out a copy out, passing it to Fen.

Fen took the agreement and scanned through it. It was as what Kang Zhaoming said. He didn’t want her to go back to what happened before and didn’t want her to mention any of these to others. If she followed these two rules, she could receive 500,000 yuan as a one-time compensation.

In fact, Fen didn’t want to go back to what happened before. It was because she was too stupid before, and even if she wanted to do something about it, what could she do to Kang Zhaoming? Both of them were willing before, and she could do nothing about it!

However, Fen didn’t want Kang Zhaoming’s money. Even though she was poor, she had moral honesty. Lin Yi was Tang Yun’s boyfriend, yet she refused to take Lin Yi’s money. Not to mention that Kang Zhaoming was only her ex-boyfriend who hurt her before?

Fen also knew that her family needed money right now and at the moment, she didn’t know whether she should agree or not. Eventually, she decided to call Kang Xiaobo first.

Before Kang Xiaobo went to school in the morning, he gave a call to Lin Yi. Kang Xiaobo was worried about Fen because people from Qibing Real Estate was going to the shantytown again. However, he knew that he wouldn’t be of help if he went so he wanted Lin Yi to go with him.

Lin Yi drove Chu Mengyao’s Audi S5 today. Since Miss let him drive it, Lin Yi had no reason to turn down the offer.

Lin Yi arrived at the front gate of the school and honked a few times. Kang Xiaobo didn’t know it was Lin Yi since he never saw Lin Yi drive this car before.

“Boss, your bar…” Kang Xiaobo was surprised at Lin Yi’s Audi S5.

“It’s Chu Mengyao’s.” Lin Yi smiled, “Get in. Li Cihua made my car explode. I’m going there to ask for money.”

Lin Yi’s verbal agreement with Li Cihua yesterday no longer stayed in effect. His car was destroyed and they ripped their relationship apart. Li Cihua didn’t believe that Lin Yi didn’t know how his car blew up, and after a series of events, their relationship became tense again. Li Cihua didn’t only give Lin Yi five million for nothing, Lin Yi even wanted to make him compensate for the car!

“uh… Li Cihua blew it up?” Kang Xiaobo was surprised.

“Long story,” Lin Yi said, “Let’s talk on our way there.”

“Sorry to trouble you!” Kang Xiaobo was embarrassed. He was Lin Yi’s follower but he didn’t even help Lin Yi. Instead, he always asked Lin Yi to help him, even with Fen’s family business.

“It’s nothing to worry about. I’m also looking for Li Cihua,” Lin Yi didn’t think it was inappropriate as he treated all his friends sincerely without asking anything for return.

Lin Yi recounted what happened yesterday. He took Tang Yun’s family to Li Cihua to ask for compensation and also told Kang Xiaobo why his car blew up.

“Damn!” Kang Xiaobo heard that Lin Yi was the one who made Qibing skyscraper collapse again this time and admired him even more. That guy built it twice and Lin Yi blew it down twice…

Kang Xiaobo was completely convinced. Lin Yi was the only one who could blow down a skyscraper and still want to ask for compensation.

Kang Xiaobo’s phone rang when they were also there. He took out his phone and it was from Fen.

Kang Xiaobo’s heart tightened. Did something happen? He quickly picked up and asked, “Fen? Did something happen? Boss and I are on our way here, wait for me, we’ll be there very soon!”
