Cheng Weiyang's reaction was exactly as Qin Fei had said; her family was not wealthy.
Her parents were in poor health and needed a large sum of money for medication every month.
Meanwhile, her performance at the company had been poor over the last few months, and she was already struggling to make ends meet.
The psychological pressure she faced was immense.
But now, the financial burden had vanished in an instant. The pressure that had been building up inside her for so long was finally released, and she could not help but burst into tears.
Qin Fei hugged her, her own eyes reddening as well, and comforted her for quite a while before she finally calmed down.
"Brother, I want to go visit Weiyang's hometown," Qin Fei said, looking at Qin Ning.
"That's fine. If you want to go, just go. I'll accompany you."
Qin Ning smiled and nodded. He naturally understood Qin Fei's intention; she wanted him to help Cheng Weiyang's parents.
For him, this was nothing more than lifting a finger.
Besides, Cheng Weiyang had indeed helped Qin Fei a lot over the years. She was one of the few who genuinely treated her as a best friend.
"Thank you, Brother."
Qin Fei smiled brightly and then looked at Cheng Weiyang. "Weiyang, see when it's convenient for you, and we'll take a trip to your hometown."
"This... wouldn't it be an imposition? Plus, I still need to learn how to help you manage the company..."
"It's fine. We'll have someone else keep an eye on things for now. You can learn when we get back. It's been a long time since you last saw your parents, hasn't it? Don't you want to go back and see them?" Qin Fei said.
Her words struck a chord in Cheng Weiyang's heart.
She had left her hometown years ago, and to earn money for her parents' medical bills, she hadn't dared to take a single day off, let alone go back to visit them.
She was not a native of Liu City, but came from the neighboring Bin City, which was the most underdeveloped prefecture-level city in Xi Province.
"Alright, then I'll go back and visit them," Cheng Weiyang said.
Soon, Xia Fei, Zhou Ping'an, and Zhong Mingyuan walked out of the kitchen carrying dishes.
Everyone chatted as they ate, the conversation revolving around the trip to Bin City.
"Weiyang, it's rare for you to go home. Let's go out later and buy some gifts for your parents to take back?" Zhou Ping'an suggested.
Cheng Weiyang nodded. "Yes, I was thinking the same thing."
"Let's go out and buy them together after we finish eating. We should buy some too; we can't go empty-handed," Xia Fei added.
"You guys are going too?" Cheng Weiyang was taken aback.
"It's fine, let's all go together. The more, the merrier," Qin Ning smiled.
Gu Siyu, who was sitting to the side, spoke up, "I want to go too..."
"Will there be any problems at the company?" Qin Fei asked.
"It's not very busy right now. It won't be a problem whether I'm there or not," Gu Siyu said with a smile.
After receiving the payment from Tianyu Real Estate, the company had resumed normal operations, and many projects were proceeding in an orderly manner.
Moreover, this was an opportunity to travel with Qin Ning. Gu Siyu did not want to miss it; even if the company went bankrupt, she had to go.
The last time she tagged along on a trip to the Capital, showing her face in front of so many big shots had already brought her numerous benefits. For instance, just this morning, right after she returned to Liu City, some investors from the Capital had immediately sought her out.
She didn't even need to think to know that this was definitely driven by those big shots.
Soon, after finishing their meal, Qin Fei and the others went out together. Qin Ning did not follow them. It wasn't that he wasn't worried about Qin Fei's safety, but rather that he had left a protective talisman on her, so nothing could go wrong.
An eight-seater commercial vehicle arrived at the underground parking lot of a shopping mall.
This was the car Zhou Ping'an had just called Lin Lan to have sent over.
Upon learning that Qin Fei needed it, Lin Lan naturally did not hesitate and immediately had someone deliver it to the front of the villa.
"Xiao Fei, Weiyang, Sister Gu, this shopping mall is also one of my family's properties. When you go up later, whatever you like, just take it. No need to be polite with me."
Xia Fei said with a chuckle, and then took out three cards from his pocket. "These are the mall's internal Supreme Cards. Next time you come by yourselves, just show this card, and you won't be charged for anything."
"Thank you."
The three women didn't act coy and accepted the Supreme Cards from his hand, their faces filled with joy.
Girls just loved this sort of thing. If it weren't for the fact that they couldn't carry it all, they would have loved to buy out the entire mall.
"What about ours?" Zhou Ping'an and Zhong Mingyuan asked.
"Get lost. From now on, when you guys come to buy things, you'll be charged double. When we go up later, I'll have the security guards memorize your faces."
Dropping this remark, Xia Fei hurriedly ran towards Qin Fei and the other two who had already entered the elevator ahead.
"Damn it!"
Zhou Ping'an and Zhong Mingyuan couldn't help but curse, but they didn't hesitate and immediately followed him into the elevator.
This shopping mall was huge, with five floors in total, displaying a wide variety of goods, naturally including some high-end items and nutritional supplements.
The group selected their items carefully, and it took nearly two hours before they returned to the underground parking lot carrying bags of all sizes.
Because there were simply too many things, Xia Fei had specially called a mall vehicle to help transport them.
Zhong Mingyuan drove their car, carrying everyone, and followed behind the mall's delivery truck.
But not long after exiting the underground parking lot, the delivery truck in front suddenly braked, startling Zhong Mingyuan into slamming on the brakes as well.
"What are you doing, man? Why did you brake so suddenly? What if you scared Xiao Fei?" Zhou Ping'an and Xia Fei both said angrily.
"I didn't want to either. It was the delivery truck in front that braked hard first. If I didn't step on the brakes, was I supposed to crash into it?"
Zhong Mingyuan said with a helpless expression, then looked at Qin Fei and the other two in the backseat. "Xiao Fei, are you guys alright?"
"We're fine. Was there a car accident up ahead?" Qin Fei asked.
"It's very likely. Let's get out and take a look."
With that, the group all got out of the car. After all, staying in the car on a road where an accident had occurred was not safe.
"Do you even know how to drive? Are you blind? Blah blah blah*/%&*..."
As soon as they got out of the car, they heard a barrage of street cursing coming from ahead.
Approaching for a closer look, they realized that the delivery truck had accidentally rear-ended a Porsche 911 in front of it.
The owner of the Porsche was a young woman in her twenties, who was pointing at the truck driver and cursing a blue streak. "Is 'sorry' going to fix this? Do you know how much my car is worth? Now that you've smashed it, is a simple 'sorry' supposed to cut it?"
"You braked so suddenly, that's why I accidentally crashed into you..."
The truck driver said with a grievance-filled face, "Besides, our company's trucks are all insured, so I won't have to pay out of my own pocket..."
"What do you mean I braked suddenly? Isn't it your own fault for not maintaining a safe distance? And is this about insurance? Do you know how precious my time is? Now that my car is crashed, how much of my travel time will be delayed? Can you afford to compensate for that?"
The young woman was actually quite attractive, with a curvy figure and a face that gave off the vibe of a gentle older sister. Unexpectedly, when she cursed at someone, the contrast was staggering.
"Liang Jiani?"
Cheng Weiyang stepped ahead of the others. As if recognizing the person before them, an involuntary slight frown creased their brow.

lities. One day, Qi Yuan was buying groceries when he unfortunately came face-to-face with a monster. Just when he thought he was going to die on the spot, he suddenly heard the monster's thoughts... "This aura, he's definitely not an ordinary master!" "So terrifying, so terrifying." "A fight with my back against the wall, I can't take it anymore." Qi Yuan: Ah, no one told me that my awakened ability isn't telepathy, but rather the stronger my enemies imagine me to be, the stronger I truly become.
