Metaphysics Live Room: The host is the contract husband

Wang Hao dismissed this as nonsense and bluntly stated, "Auntie, I don't have many connections. The fact that he could do something like assaulting a police officer shows how spoiled he was by my parents."

"I'm just an intern, what connections could I possibly have? If I did, wouldn't I know how to make myself rich? Sister-in-law, isn't your in-laws business owners?"

[She comes back to the village claiming to earn millions a year, so solving this little thing shouldn't be a big deal for my aunt, right? Or does she just talk the talk while leaving everything else to me? You elders are really something...]

Wang Xiaogu's face turned red and then pale after being spoken to. She felt humiliated and very unhappy. What did this brat mean? She didn't know anyone in the capital. If she didn't turn to him, who else could she turn to?

"Fine, fine, I shouldn't have said anything. I'm not getting involved in your brothers' business anymore. Do whatever you want. Bye."

Wang Hao listened to the dial tone on the phone, pursed his lips, went straight back to the funeral supplies store, blocked all the phone numbers at home, took a shower, and went to sleep.

Well, eating and sleeping are the most important things in the world. It's the stupidest thing to do to waste your energy on people who aren't worth it.

After the phone number was blocked, Wang Hao spent a few days without being disturbed. He took some time to go to the police station to find out what was going on. He learned that they had agreed to settle the matter privately and asked the police not to pursue the case.

Otherwise, if the child goes to jail, their life will be ruined, and the whole family of three will be begging on their knees.

Even the usually stubborn and foolish Wang Yao was terrified and dared not say anything more. The matter ended with a compensation of 10,000 yuan and a letter of apology. They originally wanted to settle accounts with Wang Hao.

They couldn't see him for several days in a row. The school is so big with several gates, who knows which gate he came out of? They couldn't wait any longer, and they couldn't get in touch with him by phone. If they really put up a banner, they... dared not.

The family land needed someone to take care of it, so in the end, they had no choice but to slink back home.

Wang Hao heard news about them again from Zhou Boyuan.

"Brother Wang, your family has gone home."

"Yes, they're eyeing their land back home. They won't stay in Kyoto for long. It's better that they go back; they'll be more at peace from now on."

Will you still send that money in the future?

“If they don’t bother me, I’ll still get 3,000 a month. If they do bother me, I’ll just cut it off to avoid them cutting it all at once and then coming back to bother me in a desperate attempt to get rid of me.”

Zhou Boyuan nodded: "I understand. I'll head back now. Let's go out for dinner another day when you're free."

The other side of the middle school gate

A person dressed as Santa Claus has a small table in front of him with all sorts of pretty candies on it, some with animal patterns and others with exquisite shapes.

The small sign read "Free," and the officer stared intently at the school gate, mentally estimating when the children would be dismissed.

As the school bell rang, signaling the end of get out of class.

A large group of students rushed out of the classrooms and swarmed towards the school gate. The children's laughter was a bit noisy, and the food stalls around the school were busy tidying up, waiting for the children to come and buy food.

Every time school lets out, the food stalls are the best-selling. The kids love these snacks that cost only one or two yuan. They feel so good eating them on the way home, otherwise they won't have the energy to go home.

Middle school students, especially those in puberty, grow quickly and get hungry easily.

Li Fumei was behind them. She had just left the school gate and was about to leave when the class monitor stopped her: "Fumei, are you going home alone again? Let's go to the food stalls over there. I'll treat you to something."

"Thank you, class monitor, but no need. It's Friday, I'm going home to visit my teacher's wife. You guys can go eat there; I don't usually eat out."

As soon as she finished speaking, two classmates grabbed her arm: "Hey, it's okay, don't be so withdrawn, it's so lonely to be alone, it's only five o'clock now, there's still a long time before it gets dark."

“We’ll only be eating and drinking for half an hour. It’s not too late for you to go home after that. Just listen to me, okay? It’s usually so hard to catch you like this.”

"Haha, let's start from that end."

Li Fumei was pulled along by them, her eyes calm and composed as she looked at the disposable cardboard box handed to her. Inside was a steaming hot oden, which smelled quite good, and the broth was clear and clean.

He took it out and started eating slowly: "Class monitor, thank you."

Qi Rong smiled brightly when she saw her eat: "You're welcome. How does it taste? Isn't it delicious? Don't underestimate these small stalls. Those that can set up stalls at the school gate are all clean and hygienic."

"You can say some stalls don't taste good, but you can't say they're unclean. Hygiene is guaranteed. Let's continue."

The three of them walked and ate along the way, sharing with each other. Li Fumei also found it quite enjoyable and took out her pocket money to buy things for them. When Qi Rong encountered something delicious, she almost jumped up and cheered.

Out of the corner of her eye, she glanced over and, noticing something, stood on tiptoe and said, "Hey, look over there, what are they selling? Why are so many students gathered around?"

"Come on, let's go take a look too."

"Okay."

Qi Rong pulled others through the crowd, trying to see more clearly by standing on tiptoe, but there were so many people in front of her that she couldn't squeeze through.

Santa Claus is smiling as he distributes candy. The transparent square boxes are filled with pretty candies, and he's handing them out one by one. Each person can only take one box, and once they've received theirs, they can leave.

The crowd dispersed quickly, and soon it was Li Fumei's turn and her two companions' turn.

Qi Rong saw the free sign and asked curiously, "Santa Claus, are you sure these candies are free? They're so pretty, they should be worth at least three yuan."

"Haha, Grandpa doesn't want money. I just really enjoy making all kinds of candy. Seeing the children eat it happily makes Grandpa happy too. Come on, little girl, choose your favorite design and take it away."

"Each child can only take one box. We don't sell to outsiders. Each box is given away for free."

Qi Rong had never heard of candy being free before. Her eyes lit up, finding it very interesting. She quickly pulled her two other sisters over: "Come on, let's choose some candy too."

"Hmm, I like the little sun. What do you guys think we should choose?"

Lin Yuxin took the rabbit-shaped candy. When it was Li Fumei's turn, she stood still for a long time. After she came to her senses, she picked up a box of five-pointed stars, looked up at Santa Claus, and then looked up at him.

"Grandpa, can you take off your hood so I can see you?"

Why did she sense a trace of malice from this person? It was a strange kind of malice, not like evil energy, but pure malice, and it only flashed by.

Santa Claus met those clear eyes and felt inexplicably uneasy. He subconsciously shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, little girl, my face was burned in a fire. It would scare you if I took it off."

"If the three little girls have finished choosing their candies, could you please make way for the people behind you? Thank you."

Qi Rong quickly pulled her sister away from the stall, not forgetting to say before leaving, "Thank you for the candy, Santa Claus. Will you come again tomorrow?"

"I'm going to another school tomorrow, so I won't be coming here."
