Compensation From Demolishment

Although Mrs. Tang was aware of Lin Yin’s capability, she feared those from Qibing Real Estate deeply. Those people were the same as those of mafia. She wouldn’t dare to come in contact with such overbearing people without Lin Yi’s protection.

“Ah, didn’t we demolish your house previously? Your family’s compensation has been issued. We wish you to come to the headquarter of Qibing Real Estate, Qibing Skyscrapers tomorrow morning at eight. We will discuss the amount of compensation together,” Su Jiaonang said.

“Huh? We will have compensation?” Mrs. Tang was surprised. She thought the three million Lin Yi got for them included the house’s compensation. Why were they compensating her again?

“Of course. We demolished your house and naturally, we will make up for it!” Su Jiaonang replied, “The amount we have in mind, for now, is two million, but we need to discuss the details with you tomorrow. If you think it’s not enough, you can suggest that tomorrow.”

“Ok, ok, eight o’clock, was it? I’ll go!” Mrs. Tang was shocked. Would she have another two million?

“Ok. After you arrive, take the lift from the underground parking lot. Go to level two and you will see the demolishment project group,” Su Jiaonang hinted Mrs. Tang to ask Lin Yi to drive her there.

“Yes, I have it recorded down! No problem, I’ll see you tomorrow!” Mrs. Tang quickly noted everything down.

Everyone looked at her in confusion after she hung up the call.

“Wang, what’s wrong? What about compensation?” Fen’s mother asked curiously.

“Wasn’t my house taken down? A person called Su Jiaonang, who’s part of the demolishment project group from Qibing Real Estate, called me and told me to claim my compensation tomorrow at the headquarters! Two million!” Mrs. Tang was shocked by the number.

Mrs. Tang thought that her small and worn out house worth at most ten to twenty thousand. Why would they give her two million?

The first thought flashed through her mind was Lin Yi. Wasn’t Li Cihua and Master Bing in charge of Qibing Real Estate? Perhaps Li Cihua became worried that Lin Yi would look for trouble again after he came back and was trying to please Lin Yi?

After a moment of thought, it was the only possibility.

“Two million!” Fen’s mother froze at the number. All the other neighbors widened their eyes in shock without knowing what to say.

“Your house worth two million” Liu Xinwen’s mother exclaimed after a while.

“Humph, they are only paying two million because they are afraid of Lin Yi! Otherwise, my house won’t even worth twenty thousand, not to mention two million!” Although Mrs. Tang pretended to be calm, her heart was filled with joy.

“That’s what I thought. Two million? Two million is enough for us to buy a mansion!” Fen’s mother shook her head, “We are more than happy to have ten or eighty thousands!”

“Don’t say that. We can always discuss it with them!” Mrs. Tang smiled.

Fen and Liu Xinwen’s mother both sighed. Discuss? We don’t have an almighty person like Lin Yi in our families. How can we discuss it with them? Will they discuss with us?

When they thought about the gap between Mrs. Tang and their families, they became less excited and left after a while, talking about how they will discuss the amount of compensation will the developers tomorrow.

Previously, they thought that Tang Yun’s family was the most unfortunate family since they tried to rebel and got punished. Now, her family was in the best position!

After Mrs. Tang’s neighbors left, she passed the good news onto Tang Yun.

“Yun, Qibing Real Estate just gave me a call and said they’ll compensate us two million!” Mrs. Tang wasn’t as excited about two million after seeing the three million she received before.

“Two million? Really?” Tang Yun didn’t believe it, “Didn’t they just compensate us three million? Why are they giving us another two million?”

“I don’t know. Perhaps they are afraid of Lin Yi? They want to pay us to please Lin Yi so Lin Yi won’t look for trouble again?” Mrs. Tang guessed, “That Li Cihua from yesterday, wasn’t he scared of Lin Yi?”

“Please him? I don’t think there’s a need to please Lin Yi,” Tang Yun became suspicious of her mother’s words, “Although they are scared of Lin Yi, there is no reason to give us that much since Lin Yi hasn’t said anything yet. Doesn’t it seem unreasonable to you?”

“How? How is that illogical? Isn’t good that they are giving us money?” Mrs. Tang thought that Tang Yun was been too careful.

“No, not that, but why would they? Mum, I think there’s something wrong…” Tang Yun felt like something was odd. Why would Li Cihua send money to them? He was unwilling to give after Lin Yi asked for you, why did he give money to them willingly now?

“You… Wouldn’t we know whether something is wrong or not tomorrow?” Mrs. Tang replied carelessly, “They told us to go to the second floor of Qibing Skyscraper at eight tomorrow morning to claim the compensation. Ask Lin Yi if he’s free or not and see if he can go with us?”

“Oh…” Tang Yun planned to ask Lin Yi what Li Cihua was up to. He gave them three million last time and another two million this time.

Lin Yi received Tang Yun’s call when he was almost at school. After he heard Tang Yun’s narration, Lin Yi was bewildered, “Is the skyscraper complete already?”

Tang Yun thought that Lin Yi would find the compensation issue strange, but she didn’t expect him to focus on the completion of the building. It amused her, “What, you want to demolish it again?”

“Ah, I will if he offends me again,” Lin Yi laughed, “His skyscraper was demolished and he’s still giving your family money? Is he stupid?”

“That’s what I thought. Do you think there’s something wrong with it?” Tang Yun was worried about this problem.

“Hm… Isn’t it stupid not to take free money?” Lin Yi didn’t think there was anything wrong, “Since they are giving money, I’ll go with you tomorrow.”

“But…” Tang Yun still thought it was unreasonable.

“Even if there’s a problem, so what? I’m here. Why would you be afraid?” Lin Yi thought through it. Even if Li Cihua and Zhao Qibing wanted to do something, they wouldn’t be able to achieve it since he had fully recovered. They couldn’t possibly kill him…

“Ok…” Tang Yun nodded in agreement after hearing his words. He was right; there was no need for her to worry with Lin Yi next to her.

WIth this, Tang Yun stopped worrying.
