Chapter 395: Saved by a fierce and rough boss
After leaving the clinic, Cheng Zheng walked Wen Yang back to the Yao family's house and left.
Wen Yang entered the house and was about to tidy up the house when he heard a knock on the door.
The dong dong dong sound seemed particularly abrupt in the quiet atmosphere.
She approached the gate cautiously until she heard familiar muttering coming from the other side.
"Why is the door locked from the inside at this time? Yangyang shouldn't be at home..."
"Yeah..." Yao Xing was very puzzled when he saw that the door could not be opened.
Wen Yang's eyes lit up, and the worry in her heart was immediately replaced by joy. She immediately unlocked the door, her eyes unconsciously reddening slightly, "Auntie, you're back!"
The door suddenly opened, startling Wen Minfang and her group standing outside. She clutched her chest and looked at Wen Yang, "Yangyang, why are you still home at this hour? Don't you have to go to work at the clinic?"
Wen Yang shook his head and stepped aside to make way for the door. "It's a long story, aunt. Please take your luggage into the house and sit for a while before we talk."
Wen Minfang carefully observed that Wen Yang's mental state did not seem to be very good. She was afraid that something had happened at home during the few days they were away, so she did not linger at the door. She turned around and asked Yao Xing to pick up the luggage and go into the house first.
People filed in, and the originally deserted house instantly returned to its original bustle.
After Wen Minfang brought the luggage into the house and put it away, she came out, took Wen Yang's hand and sat him on a chair in the living room. She asked with concern, "Yangyang, has anything happened to you during the days we were away?"
Wen Yang lowered his head slightly, bit his lip, and was silent for a while before he confessed the whole story of how he was kidnapped by the vulgar patient of the clinic.
When the whole family heard what Wen Yang said, they all gasped in shock. Although Wen Yang had simplified some of the dangerous processes, Wen Minfang still felt a surge of fear in her heart after hearing it, and tears instantly filled her eyes.
She held Wen Yang's hand tightly and choked up, "Yang Yang, luckily you are okay now, otherwise I don't know how to explain to your father."
"It's okay, auntie. The man has been arrested." Wen Yang handed Wen Minfang a piece of paper and comforted her softly.
Wen Minfang wiped her tears, raised her eyes again and asked, "So...how did you escape in the end?"
"It was Mr. Cheng who saved me."
"Mr. Cheng? Who is Mr. Cheng?" Wen Minfang had no impression of anyone with this surname.
"He's the one who caught my uncle when he was drunk last time."
After Wen Yang's reminder, Cheng Zheng's figure immediately appeared in Wen Minfang's mind.
Afterwards, Wen Yang told Wen Minfang in detail how Cheng Zheng rescued her and sent her to the hospital. In order to protect her, he even sent her home and waited until she locked the door before leaving.
"What a good person, what a good person..." Wen Minfang sighed after hearing this.
Although Wen Minfang had a bad impression of the noisy middle-aged woman who was dining at the same table with Cheng Zheng, since Cheng Zheng saved Wen Yang, she should thank him out of both emotion and reason.
Wen Minfang stood up and said, "Where does Mr. Cheng live? I need to prepare some thank-you gifts right away and go visit him to express my gratitude."
Wen Yang quickly stopped Wen Minfang and said, "Aunt, please don't be impatient. I haven't finished what I want to say yet."
Hearing this, Wen Minfang sat down again and asked, "Did anything else happen?"
Wen Yang shook his head. "I wanted to repay Mr. Cheng for the favor before, but he always refused. Besides, he doesn't want my money no matter what."
"Ah... this..." Wen Minfang was also at a loss for words when she heard Wen Yang's words. She frowned and asked awkwardly, "Then how do I repay this favor?"
Wen Yang took a deep breath before replying, "Mr. Cheng said he's short of a copyist and hopes I can work for him and help him with the copying."
"I've already promised him that when you guys come back I'll say hello to you and then go work for him for a while. I don't want any salary, just as a way to repay his kindness."
Yao Xing, who was standing by, heard this and suddenly interjected with some concern, "Are you sure that Mr. Cheng is a good person?"
Wen Yang nodded firmly without hesitation. "Uncle, Mr. Cheng is indeed a good man. For my reputation, he even contacted the police station to prevent the news from leaking out. If he hadn't saved me, I think I would have already..."
Wen Minfang heard this and felt that Cheng Zheng sounded like a good person. She sighed heavily and said, "Since Mr. Cheng invited you, then you should go. We are all back now anyway. At worst, I can pick you up when you get off work. So where is the place he asked you to work?"
"Beijing." Wen Yang replied honestly.
The whole family: “…”
After a moment of silence, a shocking roar broke out.
"What?! Jing City?!"
Wen Minfang looked at Wen Yang in disbelief. Although she had noticed Mr. Cheng's extraordinary temperament before, she thought he was some big shot in the county at that time. But she didn't expect that he was actually from Jing City.
Wen Minfang suddenly thought that if Wen Yang was in the county town, she could still take care of him, but if Wen Yang went to Beijing, she would not be able to take care of him.
So she said, "How about we find another way to repay him... Although going to the capital is a good thing, if you go with him, your reputation will be ruined..."
Wen Yang pursed her lips, knowing that her aunt's worries were unfounded. She was a woman, and if she followed a man away, if she returned alone, she would inevitably be criticized behind her back...
Wen Minfang sighed, "There's no rush for this, let's think about it for a few more days..."
Then she changed the subject, "Oh, by the way, are you not working at the clinic anymore?"
"Yes, Auntie. I talked to Doctor Song at the clinic today. Doctor Song has already paid me my salary. I don't have to go there tomorrow."
"Oh, so that's the case. That's perfect. You are free now. You will have time later and you can meet Zhenting." Wen Minfang said with a smile.
She was still thinking about hoping that Wen Yang could find a good family in the county town. She didn't know what Mr. Cheng meant by inviting Wen Yang to work in Beijing. Could it be that he had taken a fancy to Wen Yang?
Wen Minfang was thinking silently in her heart.
Although Mr. Cheng is from Beijing and has better conditions, the gap between people from places like Beijing and people from small places like them is too big. Climbing too high is sometimes not necessarily a good thing.
So she still felt that Lu Zhenting's child was more suitable for Wen Yang. Moreover, the Lu family knew her well and lived in the county town. If Wen Yang was bullied, she would have her mother's family to help and support her, so she would have some confidence.
If Zhen Ting and Wen Yang are a good match, they can settle the matter. Then Wen Yang will have a reasonable reason not to go to Beijing. As for repaying Mr. Cheng, buying some expensive gifts for Mr. Cheng to take away can be regarded as repaying the favor.
Yao Xing, who was standing by, also echoed, "Oh, yes. Brother Lu told me before that if Wen Yang is free, I should tell him. In that case, I'll talk to Brother Lu tomorrow when I get to work and see when we can have the two kids meet in private again."
"Okay, then don't forget it tomorrow." Wen Minfang reminded again.
Then she rubbed her aching shoulders and neck, yawned, and said to Wen Yang, "Yangyang, your uncle and I are exhausted these days. Let's go back to the house and rest for a while. We won't have lunch. If you're hungry at noon, you can eat something first. I'll make dinner when you wake up."
Seeing this, Wen Yang also considerately stopped talking about the topic, "Okay, auntie, you guys should go and rest quickly."
