1979: Literary Master, Starting from the Return of Educated Youth

Chapter 259: Driving in the daytime, speeding up

It was getting late, and Xu Yuexin drove several female comrades home.

Most of them live in Haiding because it is the higher education district of the capital and the houses of university teachers are basically allocated here.

The only exception was Bai Shuanglu, whose family settled in Changping.

After Xu Yuexin sent Tianxianma and others home, he continued to drive north to send Bai Shuanglu home.

He knew that Bai Shuanglu must be living so far away to avoid her ex-husband, so he didn't ask any more questions.

The road conditions from Haiding to Changping were still very poor those days. It took Xu Yuexin more than an hour to send Bai Shuanglu home after a bumpy ride.

The place that Bai Shuanglu rented was a small farmyard, which didn’t seem to be very big.

"Come to my house and sit down."

Before getting off the car, Bai Shuanglu invited Xu Yuexin, "Have a cup of tea."

"Forget it, it's too late and I have to go back."

"Come and drink again next time when you have time."

Xu Yuexin glanced at the dark night sky outside the window and politely declined.

"Then drive slower."

Bai Shuanglu nodded politely and got out of the car.

Then the lights in the car came on and Xu Yuexin glanced at Bai Shuanglu's back.

Her skin is fair and tender, her body is well-proportioned, and her slim waist and round hips are unforgettable.

Bai Shuanglu's figure was deeply engraved in Xu Yuexin's mind.

Even as he drove home, Bai Shuanglu's figure kept appearing in his mind.

……

A few days later, Xu Yuexin received good news from Tianxianma and Bai Shuanglu.

All 20 tapes have been sold out and all payments have been received.

The former is not easy, and the latter is even less easy.

These days, many dealers will pledge the payment for goods from upstream suppliers and then pay it back after a year or half a year.

Sometimes a dealer goes bankrupt and the business ends up becoming bad debts.

When Xu Yuexin heard about the sales situation, he realized that it was the connections of some of them that played a role.

“Who helped to collect the money?”

When meeting Tianxianma, Xu Yuexin asked her.

"It's Teacher Bai. Her family has connections in the audio-visual industry."

Tianxianma gave Xu Yuexin the truthful feedback.

"Oh...then she is still being entangled by her ex-husband."

Xu Yuexin said with some surprise.

"It's so simple. His connections are limited to the music industry, so he can't do anything if he runs into a scoundrel."

"Okay, I'll give her some money to express my gratitude."

In later generations, if this situation happened, Bai Shuanglu would at least get a share of the profits.

But everything is still in its infancy in this era, and everyone is still unclear about the various rules for distributing benefits.

So Xu Yuexin planned to use cash instead, which was much more cost-effective than giving out dry shares.

"Why don't I give her the money?"

Tianxianma said.

"No, if you give her money, it will be detrimental to the future equal relationship between the two of you."

"I'll give it to you."

Xu Yuexin said.

"Then how much are you prepared to give?"

"2000 yuan is about enough."

"Yeah, I also think this number is more appropriate."

Tianxianma echoed.

After she finished speaking, she stood up and walked into the bedroom, took out 2000 yuan and handed it to Xu Yuexin: "Here."

"No need, 2000 yuan isn't a lot."

"No matter how much or how little, I can't let you pay for me anymore."

Tianxianma said seriously.

Xu Yuexin had helped her so much, she couldn't let him pay for her business all the time. "Okay, I'll go to Teacher Bai's house later. Is she home recently?"

"He was still here yesterday, so he probably won't be traveling far."

Tianxianma and Xu Yuexin confirmed.

After receiving the money, Xu Yuexin hugged Tianxian's mother, kissed her on the forehead, then went downstairs and drove to Changping.

This time they were driving during the day, and Xu Yuexin drove faster than last time.

In less than an hour, he arrived at Bai Shuanglu's house.

"Teacher Bai, are you home?"

Xu Yuexin stopped the car, walked to the front of the yard and knocked on the iron gate.

There was no response from the yard, and it seemed that no one was home.

Xu Yuexin thought Bai Shuanglu might be in class, so he didn't rush and just went back to the car and waited.

The sun moved westward, and by four o'clock only a little afterglow remained.

"Boss Xu."

After a while, the sound of Bai Shuanglu came from outside the car window.

Xu Yuexin opened the car door and got out, and saw Bai Shuanglu walking towards him in a white coat and black high leather boots.

"Hello, Teacher Bai."

Xu Yuexin stepped forward to greet Bai Shuanglu and said, "I heard that the tapes sold well, so I came to congratulate you."

"Thank you, Boss Xu. Actually, I wanted to congratulate you on this as well."

Bai Shuanglu smiled and nodded, and said generously, "Let's go inside and sit down."

As she spoke, Bai Shuanglu took out the key, opened the gate, walked into the yard and into the house with Xu Yuexin, and made him a cup of coffee.

This is a farm house that was rented temporarily. The furnishings are simple, but it is spacious and the ground is paved with cement.

Xu Yuexin picked up the coffee and took a sip, then went straight to the point and explained his purpose to Bai Shuanglu.

"Teacher Bai, not only did you sell quickly this time, but you also received payment quickly."

"I heard from Mr. Liu that you have made great efforts in collecting the payment, otherwise there would not be such an ideal result."

Xu Yuexin took out an envelope containing 2000 yuan and placed it on the table. "This is a small reward for your hard work. I hope you will accept it."

"How embarrassing."

Bai Shuanglu declined awkwardly, "I am also a shareholder, so it is not my responsibility to contribute."

"That's different. You played a key role in it."

Xu Yuexinjiang pushed the envelope towards Bai Shuanglu and said, "This envelope is not only a thank you, but also a commemoration of our cooperation and friendship."

"If you don't accept it, it will be awkward."

"Boss Xu is too polite."

Bai Shuanglu had never done business before, so she didn't know whether she should charge money in this situation. She hesitated and said, "Let's..."

"Dong dong!"

At this moment, there was a burst of rapid clapping at the gate, accompanied by an impatient male voice, "Bai Shuanglu, come out now!"

Bai Shuanglu's face immediately turned pale.

"No... sorry, it's my ex-husband who's here."

Bai Shuanglu nervously and awkwardly explained to Xu Yuexin, "He and I had a dispute, and he kept pestering me..."

"do you want……"

"Boom!"

Before Bai Shuanglu could say anything, the gate of the courtyard was kicked open.

I saw a middle-aged man wearing a leather jacket, with a yellow complexion and a thin body, walking into the yard with a gloomy face.

"Don't think that if I hide here, I will..."

He started shouting as soon as he entered the door, and his face turned dark when he saw Xu Yuexin.

"Who is this person?"

He walked to the threshold of the house and questioned Bai Shuanglu.

"I am Mr. Bai's business partner."

Xu Yuexin put his hands in his pockets and raised his eyebrows, "If you have anything to say, just talk about it. There's no need to be so anxious."

Although this is a matter between Bai Shuanglu and her ex-husband, theoretically it has nothing to do with Xu Yuexin.

But seeing his business partner in trouble, he had to say something, otherwise it would be too cold.
