Chapter 495 Shadow_1
"Originally, I was just like all of you, not particularly concerned about Black Bull’s family situation, mainly because everyone wanted to keep a bit of personal privacy," Yang Kai blinked as he reminisced, "I remember it was an evening last winter. That day, Glasses said he needed to look up some information at the library and didn’t have time for us, so Black Bull and I casually ate something at a stall outside the school. Later, with nothing to do and bored, we decided to go to the night market stalls to buy some bits and pieces. There, we ran into one of Black Bull’s middle school classmates. The guy had a decent relationship with Black Bull, and the two chatted for quite a while. He had dropped out of school due to family difficulties, and during their conversation, I saw Black Bull take out two red notes from his pocket to give to him. The guy insisted on not taking the money, and he even said something like ’Your family isn’t much better off than mine. You’re doing well with your studies, the pride of our village. Keep studying hard, the whole village is counting on you coming back successful,’ or something like that."
Hearing this, you and Wei Shuxian exchanged glances and shouted at Yang Kai in unison, "Damn! Why the hell didn’t you say something earlier!"
"Is it not because you guys usually pay no attention to Black Bull? Also, Black Bull is always tight-lipped. Even after that time, I’ve asked him several times, and he just wouldn’t say. Besides, whenever I suggested visiting his home during the holidays, he kept dragging his feet and deliberately avoided the topic. We’re all men of dignity; if he doesn’t want to talk about it, how can I force him?"
You and Wei Shuxian fell silent. Indeed, a person struggling in life has nothing—no money, no house, no car. The only thing left might be the last shred of dignity.
"This matter has also been a reminder for us. Anyway, after this situation settles, let’s go together to Black Bull’s hometown. Those who have money can contribute money, and those who have strength can contribute effort!"
"Alright!"
With that, you dialed Zong Wangyue’s mobile number.
Soon, he answered, "Boss, why are you thinking of me instead of spending a romantic evening with your lady?"
Zong Wangyue asked with a chuckle.
"Cut the crap, there’s been trouble with Black Bull."
