Chapter: 6381
Ashamed and embarrassed, he immediately felt like his whole body was sinking into the seat, and hastily lowered his voice to ask Hong Wufa, "Grandpa Hong, can I just donate the money and give Zhou Liyuan the donation receipt?"
Hong Wufa said, "This is a big matter. I advise you to put aside this vacation thing for now and hurry back. Otherwise, if something bad happens, I won't be able to help you."
As he was saying this, Hong Wufa added, "Oh yeah, I heard that our local media has already been paying attention to this matter and is planning to interview Zhou Liyuan. If this matter becomes more influential, I can't guarantee that I'll be able to cover for you. So just hurry back, resolve this matter first, then say your piece."
Shouxu Changkun had completely collapsed, crying and said, "I spent a lot of money on the plane ticket, hotel rooms are also expensive... and I've earned a lot of money that needs to be returned..."
"Moreover, my initial investment of 98,000 yuan is not even recouped. If I lose another 10,000 yuan on the flight and hotel, won't I become an extremely victimized person?"
Hong Wufa said with a sigh, "So don't you just take the plunge?"
Shouxu Changkun hastily said, "No way, no way... I'm not willing to take risks like this. I might end up getting in trouble, and my wife had a tough time when she went through this too, so I definitely can't repeat her mistakes..."
He let out a deep sigh and said, "Alright, Fifth Uncle, I'll go check the flight tickets and book the earliest flight back..."
As soon as Shouxu Changkun hung up the phone, Ma Ran suddenly got agitated.
She quickly asked him, "What's going on? You're already leaving after just arriving? Look at my shoes that are scuffed from walking around in Dubai... We're about to leave now, aren't we?"
Shouxu Changkun wiped his sweaty forehead and whispered, "It's not possible to stay any longer. If I don't go back now, I'll lose my deputy general manager position."
Ma Ran was furious and said, "I've only been out for half a century to enjoy this honeymoon, and you're going to just leave like this? My friends are all waiting to see my travel updates from Dubai!"
As she spoke, Ma Ran added, "And don't forget that we spent quite a bit of money on these flight tickets and hotel rooms, and the hotel is non-refundable!"
Shouxu Changkun said with a gloomy face, "What if I don't go? You can have fun here first, and I'll take care of things when I get back."
Ma Ran asked him, "How long will that take?"
"I don't know...," Shouxu Changkun said anxiously, "...according to Uncle Hong's instructions, not only do I need to return, but I also need to donate all 30,000 yuan. If I donate 30,000, let alone the 20,000 profit, my initial investment of 9,800 will be fully absorbed."
As he spoke, he covered his face with his hand and looked gloomy, "What kind of thing is this...?"
At that moment, the aircraft door had already opened, and passengers around him were starting to get off the plane. Some people walked by, looking at Shouxu Changkun with a smile that didn't hide their amusement, making Shouxu Changkun's heart even more dejected.
He quickly took out his phone and looked at the return flight schedule again, only to find that the earliest return flight was six hours away. He then told Ma Ran, "Honey, we did spend a lot of money on our hotel reservations. Why don't you have some fun here for a few days while I book tonight's ticket back to Jinling and take care of things?"
Ma Ran asked him hastily, "Will you come back after taking care of things?"
Shouxu Changkun sighed and said, "I won't be back until tomorrow afternoon. I don't know how long it will take me to handle things, and then I'll need another 8-9 hours to fly back here again. If I do that, my old bones might get worn out..."
Ma Ran said, "What's the big deal? We can just sleep on the plane when we arrive. It feels good, too. Let's just take a nap."
Shouxu Changkun handed Ma Ran his phone with the flight schedule page still open and looked gloomy, "Look at this, tonight's flight is over 4,000 yuan for economy class, over 20,000 yuan for business class, and over 50,000 yuan for first-class. I've already wasted my return ticket from earlier, and then I'll need to spend nearly 10,000 yuan again. If I do that this time and take a first-class seat back home, I won't be losing money, will I? Wait until I'm done with things and then fly back in first class. This is like taking three first-class flights! It's wasting so much money on the plane just to sleep twice. Wouldn't it be better for me to stay at home and not go out?"
Ma Ran frowned and said, "You said you'd come to spend our honeymoon together, so you can't just leave me here for several days?"
Shouxu Changkun also felt this was indeed not very suitable, and could only say helplessly, "Then you stay in the hotel and wait for me. I'll get back as soon as I'm done with things." JrNovels.com
