"What happened later?"
Yun Jianzhou pounded his head, filled with remorse.
"During that time, Dad was detained. Zhang Hui said he could help get Dad out, but he asked me to introduce him to Uncle Li. As long as he could get in touch with Uncle Li, everything would be easy."
"So that's how you met that so - called person from the newspaper?"
Yun Jianzhou nodded weakly. "I didn't suspect Zhang Hui at that time. After all, he seemed quite sincere. He even arranged for me to meet that person first. I thought he shouldn't deceive me. I just wanted to introduce him to Uncle Li quickly. But I didn't expect him to tell Uncle Li directly that he had more than 4,000 yuan. That's when I realized something was wrong."
He had just lost 4,000 yuan, and then Zhang Hui came up with that much money. Anyone would be suspicious.
But what was the use of suspicion?
In the end, they couldn't produce any evidence. Even if they asked Zhang Hui, he wouldn't admit it.
Yun Que'er clenched her fists in anger. "Maybe it was a scam he set up for you from the very beginning. In the end, he made a fortune, and we were the only ones who suffered."
The most infuriating thing was that they had to swallow this bitter pill!
"It's all my fault!" Yun Jianzhou knocked his head hard. "I trusted him too much. I thought I could definitely make money by following him. I..."
Yun Jianzhou looked up at the two people in front of him, his eyes red - rimmed.
"Everyone is busy doing things for the family. Only I can't help at all. I just wanted to prove myself and share some of the family's burden."
Yun Jianzhou shed remorseful tears. He really regretted it deeply.
Yun Fujin and Yun Que'er exchanged a look, each with mixed feelings.
Yun Jianzhou's starting point was right. He just wanted to do something for the family.
Moreover, the family's attention to him was indeed a bit too low.
Yun Yi was a good student, so she was naturally valued. Yun Que'er was the youngest, so it was only natural that she was the apple of everyone's eye. Yun Fujin was the eldest brother, always taking care of his younger siblings. Everyone knew how hard he worked.
Only Yun Jianzhou was in an awkward position.
No one really valued him, and no one could really consider his feelings.
Although they had realized this before, who could really do anything about it?
If they had paid a little more attention to Yun Jianzhou back then...
Yun Fujin walked up and reached out to support Yun Jianzhou.
"Get up."
Yun Jianzhou looked at Yun Fujin with red - rimmed eyes. "Big brother, I know I was wrong, but now..."
"Let's not talk about that for now." Yun Fujin forced a tired smile.
Too many things had happened recently, far more troublesome than when they were in Yuhe Village.
Indeed, there was always someone better, and there was always a sky beyond the sky.
Moreover, if someone really wanted to harm you, how could you escape?
The current situation was actually not too bad.
Even if they had no money, at least the whole family was together safely. There was no need to worry about the future.
"Wash your face, have a good meal, and have a good sleep. Our family won't be defeated like this."
Yun Jianzhou was so guilty that he didn't know what to say. Tears streamed down his face uncontrollably.
"I was wrong. I really know I was wrong. I'll find a way to get the money back!"
Yun Fujin grabbed him. "Okay, okay. Don't think about it for now. Let's solve the problem of Xiao Que'er's school first. We can earn money again."
Yun Jianzhou looked at Yun Fujin with tears in his eyes. "Are we just going to let it go?"
"Of course not." Yun Fujin pinched the bridge of his nose.
But everyone knew clearly that Zhang Hui wouldn't admit that he had cheated them out of the money.
At this critical moment, if they fell out with Zhang Hui, it would only bring more disasters.
"It's best to pretend not to know anything." Yun Que'er suddenly said. "First, tell Uncle Li that Zhang Hui is unreliable and we need to find a way to get rid of him. Second, Second Brother, you still have to treat him the same as before. Don't let him notice anything."
To tolerate an evildoer is to let him become over - confident. Only when he makes mistakes on his own can we have a chance for revenge.
Yun Jianzhou thought for a long time and then nodded helplessly.
"Okay."
"So, now have a good rest." Yun Que'er held Yun Jianzhou's hand and comforted him. "Big brother was also injured today. You two sleep together."
Yun Que'er gave Yun Jianzhou a comforting smile, then turned around and walked out of the door to let the two of them rest.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she walked out, she suddenly bumped into a strange face.
"May I ask who you are?"
"Is it you who hired my apprentice to do private work?"
The man standing opposite was stocky with a big beard. He didn't look easy to deal with.
At this time, the photography assistant slowly emerged from behind the man.
"Sorry, it's my boss who insisted on coming..."
It seemed that this was the boss of the photo studio. Yun Que'er's heart skipped a beat.
But she quickly regained her composure.
Anyway, it was their mistake and they had to take responsibility.
Yun Que'er stepped forward. "It's us."
She lowered her stance and said to the boss sincerely,
"Privately hiring your apprentice was indeed our problem. We also accidentally damaged your camera. It's reasonable for you to be angry. We are also willing to make up for it as much as possible. No matter what conditions you put forward, as long as it's within our means, even if we have to sell everything we have, we will definitely agree."
The boss first looked at Yun Que'er for a while, then suddenly laughed.
"What are you doing? I'm here to thank you specifically."
Yun Que'er was stunned. She looked up at the boss blankly, as if she couldn't understand what he was saying at all.
The assistant was also confused. "Boss, you... aren't you here to collect the debt?"
"Of course not. I'm grateful to them."
The boss enthusiastically held Yun Que'er's hand. "Thank you so much. We've made a lot of money. But next time, you must inform me in advance. The person who came this morning should be your sister, right? She really gave me a scare. If you had told me in advance, I wouldn't have been so surprised."
Yun Que'er was even more confused. What on earth was he talking about?
"Wait, I don't understand what you mean."
The boss laughed even more heartily. "Don't hide it from us anymore. The woman who went to our photo studio this morning was your sister, right? She said that last time she only took the photos my apprentice took for you and forgot the negatives. It took me a long time to find them. She even gave me quite a bit of extra money. Little girl, next time you have such business, you must contact me in time."
Yun Que'er finally understood something.
It seemed that someone else also knew what they were doing. So while they were away, that person took the remaining negatives.
But who was that person?
