Reborn in the 80s: The Smart Wife with a Secret Space Chapter 610: Another Ruthless Character

He Jinxuan naturally understood Xinyan’s intention: "Let’s all go inside and talk."

Since the house had just been renovated, and the furniture hadn’t been delivered yet, the room that was supposed to be the living room now only had a few long benches, which the workers who renovated the house had brought along to rest on.

When He Jinxuan invited everyone inside, Xinyan went to the kitchen, found the teacups she had brought from the chanical Factory, grabbed a thermos, and also entered the living room.

After all, the matter being discussed today related to herself, so she naturally had to be present.

He Jinxuan took the things from her hand and pointed to the small chair he had brought from the chanical Factory: "You sit there, I’ll handle it."

Afraid she’d feel embarrassed, he put the things down directly, pulled her over, and gently pressed her onto the chair: "Just sit comfortably, I’ll take care of everything."

He poured plain boiled water for Secretary Chang and the other leaders: "The house isn’t organized yet, and there’s no tea leaves, so please bear with us."

Secretary Chang and the others were not there to drink tea and smiled, inviting He Jinxuan to sit down.

Secretary Chang glanced at the other leaders, and seeing they were silent, he had to speak up himself: "Captain He, today’s matter, it’s clear that Captain Lu’s family was in the wrong, and we know that what she said indeed damaged the reputation of your girlfriend.

But Captain Lu appealed to us, and we have our selfish reasons as well; we hope you can understand."

He Jinxuan and Xinyan exchanged glances, understanding the implication of the secretary’s words. Naturally, they didn’t want Geng Lihua’s actions to tarnish the transport company’s reputation and beco a laughingstock for the brother units.

Seeing that He Jinxuan did not express his opinion, Secretary Chang continued: "We also recognize that approaching you at this mont isn’t exactly straightforward.

Of course, we’re not suggesting we let her off. Since she made a mistake, she has to bear the consequences.

However, could the consequences remain within our transport company? I understand that such a request isn’t fair to you, but I’m in a difficult position too.

If this matter escalates, the reputation of our transport company could also be affected, and I’ll be retiring in a year. I’d like to think I’ve been diligent in my position, and I hope you can understand my feelings."

Xinyan frowned, feeling a bit displeased. True, she could understand what he was saying, but why should she suffer just to fulfill their wishes?

Secretary Chang might also have felt he was being unreasonable, rubbing his face: "I’m really sorry."

He Jinxuan asked coldly: "Secretary Chang, if it’s as you say, I’d like to know how Geng Lihua will be dealt with?"

Secretary Chang glanced at the Lu family mbers standing to the side: "As long as she doesn’t receive a prison sentence, that’s fine."

He Jinxuan then asked: "And what benefit will there be for my girlfriend?"

On their way back, the two of them had already discussed this, having anticipated the situation.

Secretary Chang knew that without so compensation, why would they let Geng Lihua or the Lu Family off the hook? He looked towards Lu Zhuzi: "Captain Lu, what do you say?"

Although Captain Lu was frustrated with He Jinxuan for involving the police, ultimately, it was his own wife who was in the wrong: "Captain He, given the situation, I know that no words can make up for it. Our family is willing to offer three hundred yuan as compensation for your girlfriend. Is that acceptable?"

He Jinxuan didn’t respond directly but said: "My girlfriend just finished a special appointnt at the city’s investnt promotion bureau today as an accompanying translator for a foreign business delegation. Even though she’s only a freshman, she’s already helped translate three books for the publishing house under her professor’s introduction. You all are smart; you know what this ans, right?"

Everyone was a bit surprised upon hearing this. They hadn’t expected Captain He’s wife not only to be beautiful but also such a treasure.

Captain Lu realized that the compensation of three hundred yuan probably wouldn’t matter to them at all.

Captain Lu clenched his fist under his sleeve and took a deep breath.

He understood that if he didn’t pay a substantial amount, the matter wouldn’t be resolved. Even if he did, it would likely be out of consideration for Secretary Chang, since they clearly weren’t lacking in money.

Not only would they be punished, but Secretary Chang would also owe them a favor, and the entire transport company would have to rember the kindness towards He Jinxuan’s girlfriend. Yet in the end, it was Captain He who would benefit. Who would’ve thought this kid had such clever sches?

He gritted his teeth: "Captain He, I’ll offer a thousand yuan as compensation, just for my brother’s dignity. How about it?"

He Jinxuan glanced at Xinyan and saw her blink, knowing she agreed, but a lesson had to be taught to Geng Lihua: "Captain Lu, since you put it that way, if we don’t agree, people might say we’re being unreasonable.

However, since the police have been involved, we still need to wait for the outco. As for how to handle it, we’ll need to discuss further. What do you think?"

Captain Lu and those seated understood that this was also soone with strong principles. Although they would spare them the embarrassnt of sending soone to jail, they wouldn’t let Geng Lihua off easily either.
