Mistaking My Sister-In-Law for My Wife After Getting Drunk!

Chapter 696: A Million Thanks



After hearing Xu Yang's words, Cain couldn't help but nod.

Indeed, Xu Yang was a billionaire, and Wang Xiaocong was the son of the richest man in China.

Even if there was cooperation with the Tulls, it was unlikely that they would do something so demeaning as to ask him for evidence.

Moreover, the Tulls had indeed not sought evidence from him.

If the Tulls really wanted the evidence in his possession, they probably would have taken action long ago.

These two reasons alone were enough to prove that Xu Yang was telling the truth.

It seemed that the Tulls had indeed failed to secure a deal and, instead, their talks had broken down, leading to a conflict with Xu Yang and others.

Thinking of this, Cain said, "You make sense."

Xu Yang smiled and asked, "Then, are you willing to give us the evidence?"

Cain thought for a moment and replied, "I am willing. Anyway, the evidence is not of much use in my hands, at least not at the moment, without the ability to hire a good lawyer. I'm willing to take a gamble and hand it over to you to use against Nolden, to avenge my father."

Xu Yang said, "You've made a wise choice, now give me the evidence."

"Just a moment," Cain said as he stood up to go back to his room. He brought out some documents and handed them to Xu Yang.

He also asked for Xu Yang's email address and sent some digital documents to Xu Yang's inbox.

Cain said helplessly, "Actually, this evidence, if it were against an ordinary person, hiring an average lawyer would be sufficient to put them in jail. Unfortunately, Nolden is not an ordinary person; he is the Family Head of the Brook Family."

Xu Yang smiled faintly, "Rest assured, now that you've entrusted these things to me, I will certainly fulfill your wishes. You've done us a great favor; you can make a request of us. As long as it's not too excessive, we can fulfill it."

This was the consensus reached while having lunch.

As long as Cain provided the evidence, he could expect certain benefits in return.

As long as the requests were not excessive, they could be met.

Everyone was wealthy and did not want to owe favors.

Hearing this, Cain believed even more firmly that Xu Yang was sincere about opposing Nolden.

He shook his head and said, "What I've done doesn't count as help. Your actions are what truly help me greatly. I should be thanking you. Without you, who knows how long it would take me to get revenge, if ever in this lifetime. So forget about making any requests. Just seeing Nolden sent to jail will be more than enough for me."

Xu Yang still felt obliged to do something and, after thinking for a moment, said, "I see your current job is not very good, and you intend to open a restaurant with your friend, right?"

Cain nodded and said, "Yes, that's our dream. To open a restaurant where we could live decently, not like now, working ourselves to exhaustion as waiters every day and earning hardly any money."

Xu Yang asked, "How much would it roughly cost to open a restaurant?"

Cain answered, "We estimate about a hundred thousand. Each of us needs to save up fifty thousand. Once we have enough saved, we can start."

Xu Yang thought for a moment and said, "How about this, I give you a million dollars as thanks for providing the evidence. With this money, you can open your restaurant without having to save up."

Cain was startled, "You're giving me a million?"

Xu Yang nodded, "Yes, as I said, the evidence you provided is very important to us. It is an important part of our campaign against the Brook Family. Although helping us also means helping yourself, we still want to show our gratitude. Plus, you come from a wealthy family; now you live like the poor. You surely want to get out of this life as soon as possible, and live a better life with your friend."

After a moment of silence, Cain replied, "Since Mr. Xu, you are willing to offer the money, and I can tell you really want to help me, I'll accept it. I am indeed in a dire situation and do want to get out of this life as soon as possible."

To refuse under these circumstances would be foolish.

He indeed needed the money and there was no need to be pretentious.

If he insisted on not accepting, he would merely be missing an opportunity to turn his life around.

Xu Yang smiled and said, "That's the right attitude. Just give me your bank account details."

Cain said, "I would like you to split the million in two, give me five hundred thousand, and give my friend Luke the other five hundred thousand."

Upon hearing this, Luke was taken aback, "Cain, you..."

Cain waved his hand to interrupt, "Luke, we are friends. When I was in my most difficult time, it was you who helped me. I hope that what I own, you can own as well."

Xu Yang couldn't help but admire, "You are really good to your friend."

Cain said, "I told you, my friend helped me when I was most in need. Without him, I might have already become a homeless person."

Xu Yang nodded and then asked, "Then why didn't you wait for me to give you the money, and then you give it to your friend?"

Cain smiled bitterly, "If I did that, Luke wouldn't accept it. I understand his character too well."

There was something he didn't say.

He treasured his friendship with Luke very much.

If he did that, the nature of their friendship could change.

Even if friendship isn't about wealth, too great a disparity in wealth would definitely affect the relationship between two people.

The amount of wealth determines the scope and places of activities that the two people engage in. The things they do are different.

If things go well, both can only become the kind of friends who meet occasionally.

If not, the friendship could come to an abrupt end.

Xu Yang nodded, "Okay, take out your bank cards, and I'll transfer the money to you."

Luke and Cain each went back to their rooms to get their bank cards.

It was Wang Xiaocong who handled the money transfer.

Xu Yang didn't have an overseas account. Wang Xiaocong had studied abroad in the past and often traveled overseas, so naturally, she had an overseas account.

She transferred five hundred thousand dollars each to Luke and Cain.

"Alright, now you just wait and watch the news. It won't be long before the Brook family will be destroyed, and Tulls's father Nolden will surely be punished by the law," Xu Yang said.

"I look forward to that day," Cain said.

"Goodbye." Xu Yang and Wang Xiaocong left.

After seeing off the two, Cain closed the door and returned to the living room.

Luke said, "Cain, this one million is your money, I can't take it."

Cain said, "Luke, didn't I tell you? If it weren't for you, I would have become a homeless person. We share hardships together, so naturally, we should also share our blessings."

Luke said, "But..."

Cain waved his hand to interrupt, "No buts. If you really consider me a friend, then accept this five hundred thousand."

Luke said helplessly, "Alright."

Cain sat down next to Luke, putting an arm around his shoulder, "Now that we have money, we don't have to continue being waiters anymore, we can start preparing to open our restaurant."

At this point, Luke also became somewhat excited, "Right, we can open a restaurant now, no need to keep being waiters. What do we do to start? You know more about this, I'll listen to you."

In the past, opening a restaurant was just an idea that would take a long time to save enough money for.

Both were slowly learning and had not discussed the specifics of how to actually open a restaurant.

They didn't expect to have the capital so soon, and this caught him off guard.

Cain smiled, "Let's discuss it together. First thing first, is to go resign tomorrow. I am really looking forward to seeing that fat manager's face."

Luke laughed, "That fat guy, he won't be able to boss us around anymore!"
