Rebirth of the King of Waves

Chapter 21 Cutting the Gordian knot
"Na Zha's mother is so nice, she loves Na Zha so much..."

Two and a half hours later, Xiao Taotao emerged from the theater, her eyes swollen like peaches from crying. She sobbed, wiping her tears with a tissue while blaming Ning Bishu, "Uncle, you're too hard-hearted! Aren't you moved at all?"

Ning Bishu replied calmly, "I'm touched. Seeing such a high attendance rate, you have no idea how happy I am right now."

"I don't believe it. You don't react at all!" Xiao Taotao held Ning Bishu's arm.

At this moment, the cell phone in Ning Bishu's pocket suddenly rang.

He picked it up and took a look, his expression changed slightly, and he hurriedly said to Xiao Taotao: "Taotao, I have something to do, you go back upstairs and wait for me." As he spoke, he pulled his hand out of Xiao Taotao's arm, took out the room card from his pocket and handed it to her.

Xiao Taotao couldn't help but ask, "What's the matter?"

"It's nothing, you go back first." Ning Bishu just distanced himself and walked quickly into the distance.

Xiao Taotao felt a little helpless for a moment, as if he had been abandoned.

Watching Ning Bishu walk away, she stood there helplessly for a moment before turning and walking towards the elevator.

On the other side, Ning Bishu walked a long way to a less crowded place.

When he turned around, he saw that Xiao Taotao had already left, so he picked up the phone and called back the person who had hung up.

The moment the call was connected, Ning Bishu immediately said, "Mom, don't say anything, just listen to me! Something happened at the company, so I had to go back to work overtime. I have to go on a business trip in the next two days. I'm already on my way to the airport and won't be home for the next few days."

Bi Guifen couldn't help but asked in surprise: "Why are you suddenly going on a business trip? Ah Shu, you didn't really get into trouble out there, did you? Don't scare me!"

"Don't scare yourself. It's nothing. I'm fine!" Ning Bishu denied it flatly.

And it seems that Uncle San hasn't told her that he borrowed more than 900 million yuan.

But it’s better this way, I can’t explain it to her clearly in a short time.

The longer it can be delayed, the better, so that Bi Guifen won’t be scared to death at home.

"Mom, don't listen to what others say! I will be back in a few days anyway, and it won't be more than half a month at most." Ning Bishu continued to forcefully instill in his mother the idea that "other people are talking nonsense."

Bi Guifen was still skeptical, muttering quietly: "What boss would make someone go on a business trip for half a month during the Chinese New Year? Your dad and I couldn't finish the dishes you bought yesterday, and we're waiting for you to come back and eat them together..."

"Oh, these trivial matters..."

Ning Bishu was a little annoyed. His mind was full of big business worth tens of millions, but Bi Guifen treated a meal worth a hundred yuan as a big deal and took up his energy and time.

But he could only hold back his anger and said gently, "Mom, don't focus on these few cents or dollars. I won't talk about other things about our family's life these past few years, but financially, I've at least been able to make ends meet, right? I haven't let you and dad starve, have I?
Don't be afraid, you will definitely be able to survive!
"During the New Year holidays, you should rest well at home, eat and sleep. I'm telling you, my salary will be raised soon, and we'll send my dad to a nursing home. You can save some energy and take good care of him."

"I'm not sending your dad to a nursing home!"

Bi Guifen suddenly interrupted, speaking as if someone owed her money, "Those people in the nursing home are so evil and heartless! I can do it myself now, why would they send your father to a nursing home for no reason and give money away for nothing!"

After a lot of nonsense, it is obvious that only the last sentence is true.

"Okay, okay, whatever you say will be whatever it is."

Ning Bishu didn't want to talk too much with his mother. "I have to get on the plane now, so I won't talk anymore!"

"Hey! Why don't you go home and get some clothes before you leave?"

"It's okay, I'll buy a new one when I get there."

"Why buy a new one? You already have one at home, why would you waste the money?"

"Mom, it's only natural for me to buy new clothes for the New Year! No more words! I'll call you when I have time!" Ning Bishu pressed the hang-up button decisively. He felt that his blood pressure rose a little after making this call.

To put it bluntly, if you two hadn't lived your whole lives and ultimately relied on your son to survive, would I be so exhausted now? I haven't said anything myself, yet you keep nagging me over and over again. Who wouldn't be annoyed?
Don’t I know that I shouldn’t spend money recklessly?

But I'm in charge now!

"What the hell is this..."

Ning Bishu gritted his teeth, feeling so angry that he didn't know where to vent his anger.

I can only force myself to swallow it down and digest it silently.

After a long time, my emotions finally calmed down a little.

He took a deep breath and called his grandmother again.

As soon as the call was connected, Ning Bishu said straight to the point without any nonsense, "Grandma, if my mother asks about me borrowing money, please don't tell her yet. Otherwise, if she gets upset, our family will have trouble living."

"Oh my!" Grandma heard Ning Bishu's voice on the other end of the phone and burst into tears. "Ah Shu, where have you been? Your third uncle went to the bank to check and said you borrowed tens of millions!"

"Bullshit! I clearly don't even have ten million... Grandma, don't try to trick me like that. Are you trying to trick me? If you have something to say, just ask directly!"

"Did you really borrow so much money? What do you want to do?" "Don't worry about it. Anyway, I will pay you back 100% of the money in a month at most. I will pay it all back and not owe a penny!" Ning Bishu said in a loud voice.

Grandma asked in panic, "You didn't go gambling with anyone, did you?"

"How could I do such a thing?"

Ning Bishu frowned and said in a very firm tone, "Grandma, I'm fine. I'm very stable! Don't worry!"

But my grandmother didn't believe a word of it. She still cried and screamed as if she was dying.

"Oh my! Over nine million! How can I be at ease with you? Your third uncle told me yesterday that if you owe him money, he won't help you pay it back even a penny. What will you do then? I'm an old man, and I can't do anything about your family.

"I don't mind the 400,000 yuan. I'll give it to you. At worst, I'll give up this house. I have plenty of places to live. But what about your family? Your father is in such a bad state, and your mother can't do anything. You're the only one who relies on you. You can't earn 9 million yuan in your lifetime with your salary... Are you really going to be single forever?"

The more my grandmother spoke, the more excited she became.

Ning Bishu couldn't stand it either.

"Grandma, I just want to say one thing. Don't tell my mom about this for now. At least keep it a secret for me for half a month, okay? Let's make a deal! I'll definitely be home in half a month!"

Ning Bishu finished speaking in one breath and hung up the phone.

I put down my phone and felt my scalp tingling.

These two consecutive phone calls are really a waste of my life.

Ning Bishu is not afraid of being chased for debt at all now.

I'm not even afraid of my third uncle finding out.

He can completely ignore the sarcasm and contempt of others.

But only inside...

However, Ning Bishu was still thinking about home. As soon as Ning Bishu hung up the phone with his grandmother, Bi Guifen called again.

"Mom, my Ah Shu..."

"Hey there! Ah Fen, you called just in time. I was just about to tell you something!"

In less than two seconds, the grandmother had forgotten everything Ning Bishu had just said. She exaggerated the matter and told Bi Guifen about Ning Bishu's "borrowing tens of millions" from outside.

After hearing this, Bi Guifen felt dizzy.

His body swayed slightly and he almost fainted.

Tens of millions! The sky is falling!
Bi Guifen was so frightened that she was shaking all over, and she hurried to ask Ning Bishu.

At this time, Ning Bishu just walked back to the e-sports hotel.

Just as I was returning to the door of the private room and knocking, I suddenly heard my cell phone ring. I picked it up and saw that it was Bi Guifen calling again. I quickly took another step and hurried towards the bathroom.

"Uncle!" Xiao Taotao called out from behind.

"I'm going to the bathroom first!" Ning Bishu said, walked a few steps to the bathroom and closed the door.

Then, as soon as I pressed the call button, I heard Bi Guifen's extremely excited scream coming out of the receiver.

"Ah Shu! What the hell were you doing out there?! Hurry up and return the money! It's tens of millions! We can't pay it back in several lifetimes! Oh my God! How could you do this? How can we live like this?! Aa ...

Ning Bishu's face turned dark when he heard this. He knew without a doubt that he had been betrayed by his grandmother.

Listening to Bi Guifen's endless crying, the expression on his face gradually became numb.

He lowered his voice and said slowly, "Mom, I'm telling you this one last time. This isn't true. You have to believe me. I'll be back in two weeks. Don't call me during this time. That's it."

After saying that, he hung up the phone, and after thinking for a while, he simply blocked Bi Guifen's number.

When doing big things, there is no room for dragging our feet!

Ning Bishu looked at himself in the bathroom mirror with an expressionless face.

His eyes gradually became firm.

"Can the person who holds me back be called one of my own?"

He shook his head and whispered to himself, "I, Ning Bishu, don't have a mother like this."
