Chapter 987: A Relative’s Matter That Was Hard to Handle

Only Chen Mengyan and Zhou Jiajia stayed together in the villa waiting for President Hua. Yang Ming went back to his home alone. Mother Yang returned to the property work in the community downstairs, not as a temporary worker, but as a deputy manager of the property. Although she did not need to do much, it was still a stable job.

Mother Yang also understood that if Yang Dahai were not the chairman of Ming Yang Heavy Industry, the people in the community would not treat her so nicely. However, now the family’s money was enough to spend, and her everyday work was quite easy, she was considered to have an enjoyable life.

When Yang Ming came home, Mother Yang was just heading to work. They met each other in the corridor. “Big Ming, why are you coming home at this hour?”

” En , I wanted to ask a friend out for dinner in the evening. I am going to choose a gift from the things I brought back from Macau,” said Yang Ming.

“Friend? Is it a girl?” Mother Yang frowned. Now, her son had several girlfriends. Although it couldn’t be said that it was a bad thing, it was also not a good thing, so Mother Yang still wanted to intervene on this.

“It’s a girl, but it’s Teacher Zhao Ying. You know her too. She used to give me tutoring during high school.” How could Yang Ming not understand his mother?

Mother Yang was relieved when she heard that the girl was Teacher Zhao Ying.A teacher and student can’t be in love, right? She said, “Teacher Zhao did help you at that time. Bring more gifts for her. Also, invite her to a high-end restaurant. Don’t be afraid to spend money. If you don’t have enough, take it from your mother…”

After Mother Yang finished, she suddenly smiled bitterly. Did Yang Ming still need to ask for money from her? However, she continued to ask out of habit.

“I know, Mom. You should go to work. It won’t be good if people see that you’re late.” Yang Ming smiled.

“You kid, you even know that it’s not good if others see it.” Mother Yang smiled. “Then, I am going. You go upstairs by yourself.”

His mom looked a lot better recently, and his dad was the same too. Although his father was tired due to working, he was working hard at it. This made Yang Ming very pleased.

It’s useless to make more money on my own. The most important thing is that the people around me and I are happy.

Yang Ming stopped persuading his parents to leave this place to stay in the villa.

His parents had their own way of life. They were used to living here; the residents in this community were basically the employees of Ming Yang Heavy Industry. This place was close to their workplace. The problem was that the size of the house was smaller, but this was not really a problem. As long as his parents felt that it was enough, then it was fine.

When Yang Ming returned home, he began to prepare gifts for Zhao Ying. When Yang Ming was in Macau, he bought gifts randomly. The gift was just a kind of regard. Therefore, he bought a lot of cosmetics and perfumes.

However, he had to give some thought when giving Zhao Ying a present. He did not know Zhao Ying’s mindset before, so he could just simply choose one. Now that he knew Zhao Ying’s inclination, he couldn’t just simply give anything.

He needed to give a representative present if he wanted to give. It was best if there were a hint to let Zhao Ying understand his affection. In fact, Yang Ming was also very contradictory. If he confessed directly to Zhao Ying, not only was it too abrupt, but he also could not guarantee that Zhao Ying would not refuse him again!

This girl was always overcautious and indecisive. Yang Ming was afraid that Zhao Ying would reject him hot-headedly. Not only he would be embarrassed, but he could also no longer confess in the future.

Therefore, to be safe, Yang Ming wanted to give Zhao Ying a present that could represent his affection for her. This present was tough to decide on. If it were too straightforward, then it was no different from confessing directly; if it were too vague, he was afraid that Zhao Ying would not understand.

Yang Ming was in a daze as he looked for a long time in the pile of cosmetics and perfumes. All of these could not hint of his affection. It seemed that he had to choose another gift.

Yang Ming simply took a set of cosmetics and perfumes suitable for Zhao Ying’s age and put them in a bag. He was going to stroll in the shopping mall and choose a gift that suited her more.

When Yang Ming went downstairs and passed by the community property, he was going to greet his mom and tell her that he was going out. So, he went in. Most of the people in the community property knew Yang Ming. He was just a part-time worker’s son, but now, he was the deputy manager’s son. Most importantly, he was the son of the president of Ming Yang Heavy Industry, so those aunties and uncles who ignored him, previously, greeted him warmly now. “Big Ming is here! It’s been a long time since aunty has seen you, right?”

Yang Ming didn’t feel that there was anything wrong with it. After all, these people did not need to please him previously, but now the situation was different. This was also human nature. These people were not the same as relatives. They were just his mother’s colleagues, and they had no deep relationship with his mother. Therefore, there was nothing wrong to fawn upon rich and powerful people.

But Yang Ming was most annoyed by those relatives who avoided them when his family was poor. Now they all came to Yang Ming after he got rich.

“Aunty Zhang!” Yang Ming nodded to the middle-aged woman who spoke to him and greeted him.

Aunty Zhang was delighted. “Big Ming, Aunty Zhang has some apples here. Do you want to eat?”

Yang Ming was helpless. You think I am a kindergarten child, is it … But he still had a smile on his face. “No need. I am here to look for my mother.”

“The manager has a guest. The guest seems to be a relative of your family. They are inside now!” Aunty Zhang pointed to the door of the deputy manager’s office.

Relative ? Yang Ming was stunned. I just thought of my relatives, and they are here right now? But what kind of relatives can I have in my family? Most of the relatives on my mother’s side are in the countryside, and they are doing well. We do not have many conversations. The relatives on his father’s side now have their own careers. Who would still come?

Yang Ming knocked on the door with some doubts, then he heard his mother’s voice. “Who is it?”

“Mom, it is me. Big Ming!” replied Yang Ming.

“Big Ming, come in.” Mother Yang heard Yang Ming’s voice and said quickly.

Yang Ming went in, but he saw a familiar middle-aged man sitting by his mother’s desk and talking about something.

“This is Big Ming? Come here and let your Fifth Uncle have a look. You are so tall now, almost the same as my children!” The middle-aged man stood up and held Yang Ming’s hand as if he knew Yang Ming well, then he assessed Yang Ming.

“You are?” Yang Ming was suddenly inexplicable. He couldn’t remember who the person was in front of him.

“I am your Fifth Uncle, Yu Lausi,” explained the middle-aged man. “I even held you when you were a child… I am from Dayu Village…”

” Oh …” Yang Ming suddenly understood. Dayu Village was his mother’s hometown. This man was probably one of his distant relatives in the village. No wonder he seemed familiar, but Yang Ming did not see him before. Although he did not know what this man wanted, Yang Ming still greeted out of courtesy, “Fifth Uncle, hi.”

“I heard from your mother that you are now a college student. Good, very good! You are much better than my b*stard kid!” said Fifth Uncle with laughter. “Your cousin is as tall as you, and he is as buffed up as you. Maybe you two can click well. I do not really understand the language of your generation, like non-mainstream…”

Yang Ming suddenly had a chill. Who the f*ck is non-mainstream? I am a normal teenager, not brain-dead. However, he still smiled and nodded. Before Yang Ming understood this guy’s intention, he decided to leave some face for his mother.

Of course, if this guy wanted to borrow money, it depended on his mother’s decision. If his mother did not want to lend, then Yang Ming did not mind personally showing this “Fifth Uncle” out.

“Fifth Uncle, I am not non-mainstream…” explained Yang Ming.

” Oh , it is fine then. I don’t understand it anyway. My d*mn son always does not learn about the good things. He really pisses me off,” said Fifth Uncle. “I am just talking to your mother about getting your cousin work in the city to get some social experience so that he can be my successor in the future. Otherwise, I am not at ease!”

Get some social experiences? Be his successor? Not borrowing money? Yang Ming was stunned. He did not understand the meaning of his Fifth Uncle. Seeing Yang Ming’s doubts, Mother Yang explained, “Big Ming, this is the case. Your Fifth Uncle is a rural entrepreneur of Dayu Village. He has a breeding base, but your cousin does not live up to expectations. He always fools around with his toxic friends and does not listen to your Fifth Uncle. Then, your Fifth Uncle came here after knowing that your father is a president. He wants to have your cousin learn at your dad’s company so that he could get rid of those bad habits…”

“Yeah, we are talking about this,” said Fifth Uncle. “I heard that a big company will train its employees. I want my d*mn son to suffer in society and gain some experience. Otherwise, how can he take over my business in the future…”

Yang Ming understood now. Fifth Uncle does not seem to lack money. He just does not know how to teach his son who is my Fifth Cousin. He is probably a bully in the village who always does bad things.

However, where did Fifth Uncle learn that big companies trained their own employees? A big company is not a shelter that can take in anyone! If he is coming, wouldn’t that cause a mess? Especially the kind of employee who is my relative, I can’t fire him even if I wanted to. It is so difficult…
