Chapter 42

As Zhang Daqiang and his people came to handle the scene, Ye Fei escorted Tang Ruoxue to a nearby hospital.

The injuries were not serious; Ye Fei just wanted her to calm down.

Tang Ruoxue soon woke up, and after a brief inquiry about the accident, Ye Fei informed her that the other party was fully responsible, the car was sent for repairs through insurance, and they had compensated with 50,000 yuan for medical expenses.

Tang Ruoxue did not doubt it. After a brief rest and confirming she was fine, she insisted on leaving the hospital and forbade Ye Fei from informing her parents about the accident.

She didn't want Lin Qiuling and the others to worry, after all, there had been two accidents in half a month.

"Your luck has been so bad lately. Not only are there problems at the company, but you keep getting into accidents. Don't you suspect it might be the Buddha amulet?"

Ye Fei seized every opportunity to deal with the Buddha amulet: "I think it's best if you just get rid of it."

On the way, Ye Fei had considered using the accident to break the Buddha amulet, but he ultimately abandoned this violent idea.

The Buddha amulet was very hard, and Tang Ruoxue's chest was fine; how could the amulet possibly break? It would be easy for Tang Ruoxue to suspect he had tampered with it.

Moreover, even if Tang Ruoxue believed the amulet had broken, if she didn't resist it, she might just get another one.

If a more powerful and fierce amulet came, it would be a case of losing more than gaining.

After much deliberation, Ye Fei decided not to touch it. He just drew a few talismans to dispel the negative energy, so Tang Ruoxue wouldn't be too unlucky.

"Are you at it again?"

Every time Ye Fei mentioned the Buddha amulet, Tang Ruoxue became agitated: "It's obvious the other party was driving carelessly. What does it have to do with the Buddha amulet on me?"

"If it's really that evil, why do I only have two accidents when I drive to work every day?"

"You can blame the Buddha amulet for everything. I could also suspect you of making me unlucky, after all, both times were when you were in my car."

She gave Ye Fei a dirty look and picked up her handbag: "No more nonsense. Let's go home."

Being paranoid all day, Tang Ruoxue was worried that Ye Fei might be losing his mind.

Ye Fei had anticipated this outcome and followed her out with a helpless smile.

Just as they reached the elevator, Ye Fei's phone received a message from Zhang Daqiang, saying that Xiong Yi and the others had been dealt with cleanly.

Lin Ruowan and Zhang Xiaogang were also recaptured.

Zhang Daqiang assured Ye Fei that he would not be harmed again.

Ye Fei narrowed his eyes slightly and deleted the message without a word.

The trouble with Lin Ruowan was resolved.

Ye Fei didn't want to get his hands dirty, but since the other party not only wanted to kill him but also targeted Tang Ruoxue's family, he had no choice but to send them on their way.

With a sigh, Ye Fei and Tang Ruoxue returned to the villa and found a few guests at home.

Ye Fei took a closer look and saw that it was Lin Sangu and her daughter, Lin Xiaoyan.

Tang San and Lin Qiuling were sitting opposite, their expressions solemn and helpless.

Lin Sangu was Lin Qiuling's cousin, a state-owned enterprise employee, and they had a decent relationship, often visiting each other during holidays.

However, every time Lin Sangu came to the Tang family, she came empty-handed, bringing her entire family, claiming to be a big spender.

Today, she had brought a gift box, which was rare.

The box was placed on the coffee table, rough in appearance, tied with a red ribbon, and looked like some kind of craft.

"Third Aunt, Xiaoyan, hello."

Ye Fei and Tang Ruoxue greeted them politely.

Lin Sangu only nodded slightly at Tang Ruoxue and didn't even look at Ye Fei, the son-in-law of the Tang family, who didn't meet her approval.

Then, she frowned and said to Lin Qiuling, "Qiuling, I really have no choice. Otherwise, I wouldn't have come uninvited."

"Xiaoyan graduated with an archaeology degree and has been unable to find a job. The current units and companies are really unreasonable."

"I've told them that Xiaoyan is a city girl, pampered from a young age, and can't do heavy work. She also has high material requirements."

"I asked them to give Xiaoyan a light and easy job with an internship salary of around 18,000 yuan, but they all refused."

"Either they send her to the field or offer a salary of 5,000 yuan, which is no different from what rural graduates get."

"You tell me, isn't this insulting Xiaoyan's status?"

Lin Sangu, dressed in red, pounded her chest, her former shrewdness now turned to anger and frustration.

Lin Xiaoyan played with her phone, not even lifting her eyes, as if it had nothing to do with her.

Lin Qiuling consoled her softly, "Sister, I understand your feelings. How about this: Xiaoyan can work at my clinic for a few months to gain some experience?"

"Chunfeng Clinic?"

Lin Xiaoyan looked disdainful, "Aunt, forget about your clinic."

"The patients there are all from the lower class, either truck drivers or street vendors, even gangsters."

"There's no class at all."

"Besides, I studied archaeology, which is elegant and noble. Chunfeng Clinic is like a market, and I'd have to serve patients."

She pouted, "I wouldn't go even if you paid me 100,000 yuan."

Lin Sangu also chimed in, "Exactly, if Xiaoyan goes there, she might not learn anything and lower her status."

Lin Qiuling's face changed slightly, but she still managed a smile, "If you don't like Chunfeng Clinic, how can we help?"

She despised Ye Fei but was sincere with her relatives.

"I've thought about it. Those small units look down on people, so we won't go there."

Lin Sangu's eyes lit up, "I've decided to let Xiaoyan join Qianbao Group."

"I saw in the news that Qianbao Group has discovered another jade mine abroad, and their business is booming. It would be great for Xiaoyan to join."

She laid out her plan confidently, "I don't expect her to become rich, just a salary of a million or so a year."

"Joining Qianbao Group is a good idea, but it has very high professional requirements."

Tang San frowned, "It's harder to get into Qianbao Group than to pass the civil service exam."

"The people Qianbao Group hires are either experienced appraisers or talented young people."

In other words, the chances of Lin Xiaoyan getting in were slim.

"I know, that's why we came to you."

Lin Sangu winked, "Qiuling, you've run a clinic for years and have countless medical resources. San, you're an expert in antiques and know many wealthy people."

"You must have a good relationship with Qianbao Group. If you put in a good word, wouldn't it be as easy as drinking water for Xiaoyan to join Qianbao Group?"

Lin Sangu's smile faded, "Unless you don't want to help or are worried about spending money and owing favors..."

Tang San and Lin Qiuling looked troubled. They weren't unwilling to help, but this was beyond their capabilities.

Han Nanhua makes billions a year, while the entire Tang family makes only a few million a year. The gap between them was vast.

They admitted knowing Han Nanhua, but they were only nodding acquaintances and had no influence to pull strings.

Even if they could pass a message, it would carry little weight.

Ye Fei, who was about to go upstairs, hesitated when he heard Han Nanhua's name: "Mom, what's going on? Is it about Qianbao Group?"

Feeling pressured by Lin Sangu, Lin Qiuling immediately became impatient when Ye Fei asked, "Why are you asking? You can't help anyway."

She waved him away, "Go cook. They'll be having dinner here later."

Ye Fei spoke calmly, "I heard you mention Qianbao Group. I have some connections with Old Han, maybe I can help..."

If not for the tense atmosphere and concern for Tang Ruoxue's mood, Ye Fei wouldn't have bothered with them.

"You can help?

What can you do?"

Lin Sangu roared at Ye Fei, "At least a manager at Qianbao Group can solve this. Do you know any?"
