Chapter 964 — A Loan Repaid
The Blossom Guardian · Page 2 of 2
"Mr. Liu, I've finished using the money and am about to transfer it back to your account. Once it arrives, please check and confirm receipt. I've really put you to trouble this time!" Wei Zhao said, not without gratitude. That the Liu family could open their purse so generously at a time like this had rather impressed Wei Zhao, and his opinion of Liu Tianyi had improved considerably.
"Divine Doctor Lin, you're too polite. What do you mean, pay it back? Just take it and use it. Returning it—aren't you looking down on our Liu family?" Hearing Wei Zhao's words, Liu Tianyi felt a pang of disappointment, and so he said, "Does Divine Doctor Lin not consider me, Liu Tianyi, a friend?"
"How could that be? If you weren't a friend, I wouldn't have come to you in the first place, Mr. Liu!" Wei Zhao said, still neither servile nor overbearing. "But there's a saying that goes well: borrow with good grace and repay with good grace, and borrowing again is no trouble. If you refuse to take it back, Mr. Liu, then I truly won't dare to come to you again in the future!"
"Is that so..." Liu Tianyi hesitated for a moment, but in the end nodded with a bitter smile. "Very well. Since Divine Doctor Lin insists, then I, Liu, shall respectfully comply!"
"Heh, but to thank you for your generosity, Mr. Liu, I can offer you or a friend of yours one free treatment." Wei Zhao was naturally not the sort to take what others gave and offer no thanks in return, so he made sure to promise Liu Tianyi some benefit.
"This... how could I possibly accept?" Liu Tianyi was flattered and overwhelmed, yet also somewhat disappointed. After all, Wei Zhao was returning the money this time and had also promised the Liu family one treatment opportunity—which meant he was settling accounts with the Liu family, clean and square. For Liu Tianyi, who had always wanted to build a closer relationship with Wei Zhao, this meant his goal had not been achieved.
"Heh, it's nothing." Wei Zhao smiled. "Let's leave it there for now. I have a few things to attend to on my end."
"All right, Divine Doctor Lin. Go ahead and attend to your business..." Liu Tianyi hung up the phone and sighed somewhat helplessly.
"What's wrong, brother? You don't look too happy. Wei Zhao returned the money, so what's the problem?" Liu Tianli had more or less understood Wei Zhao's phone call. It seemed that not only had Wei Zhao returned the money, but he had also promised the Liu family a favor. So why did his elder brother still look displeased?
"Wei Zhao transferred one hundred million back into my account." Liu Tianyi said with a bitter smile. "And he also agreed to give our Liu family one free treatment opportunity..."
"That's a good thing!" Hearing Liu Tianyi's words, Liu Tianli was immediately puzzled. "Wei Zhao not only returned our Liu family's money, but also promised us a favor. This is a great thing, isn't it? Why would you be unhappy, brother?"
"Tianli, you've been in business for so long. You turn a steady profit every year, but you've never made a breakthrough. Do you know why?" Liu Zhenhu spoke up instead. "And Jingjing only went for a year, yet the profits doubled. Why is that?"
"This... it's because I'm not capable enough, isn't it?" Liu Tianli didn't know why his father had suddenly brought these things up.
